The Doomsday System

Chapter 23 The Resistance

Mike and his members were led to the middle room which was a living room with an area beyond estimate. The room looks very much different from Mike's last memory.

"I remodeled and rebuilt my own palace. Hows it? It looks a lot grander and more luxurious than you remember, right?" The woman walked up the stairs to a high place with a single chair in red decorated with gold on the edge. He sat with his legs crossed, looking down at Mike who was down there.

"What does it take to call me here?" Mike stared intently at the red eyes that were far above him.

"Not much. I just want you to be part of the family again. Just take your partner with you. The more the better."

"You think I'd do that after what you did to my family years ago?" Mike growling. His jaw hardened followed by a fisting that grew stronger.

"You refuse? I'm sure you already know what will happen if you don't become a submissive child." The woman smiled cunningly. His eyes narrowed as he looked at Mike passionately.

"I'm not a fool who'll forget your bad nature."

"Oh? Thank you for the compliment. So you have no other choice. Welcome back."

"Who told you I accepted it?" Mike looked up, revealing a smile that challenged the woman. All the party members standing behind him became tense due to the gripping atmosphere of Mike and the woman in front of them. Everyone knows where this conversation is going to end. They're getting ready to take the guns out of the inventory.

"The stubborn child. You need to know, I've met the administrator and my level has improved a lot. Of course it's not just me, but all the players here. There are at least about five players besides me and the lowest level of them is at level five. No matter if you were chosen early by the system, in the end you cannot beat us all at once. I'm sure your colleagues are beginners, too. They're nothing compared to my sweet children." The woman stood up from her sitting position, walking slowly down the stairs after the stairs.

Mike breathed heavily. The risk against Big Mama is too great. He did not expect that in this place there would be five players at once. Although their level was not on par with Mike, but he was sure that three members other than Balth would have difficulty facing players with level five and above.

"Don't worry. We don't know what's going on, but we'll follow your decision." Balth patted Mike hard on the back until he was slightly pushed forward. Balth's words made Mike feel a little more relieved.

"Sorry for involving you in my personal matters." Mike took a slow breath. He doesn't know what Geoff is, but he believes Balth, Martha, and Gried are willing to follow through. Mike took a deep breath.

"We refuse! Try to beat us if you can. I do not guarantee that there will be any survivors and I will not be kind enough to use my awakening skill on your people."

"You have that kind of skill?" Big Mama turned her head to hear Mike has an amazing skill. Mike smiled with satisfaction at the unexpected reaction.

"Did the administrator not tell you about it?"

"Damn it! I'll give you one more chance. Back away..."

"We refuse! That answer won't change even if you offer it a thousand times." Mike interrupted Big Mama's words before he could finish his sentence. Big Mama growled in annoyance. His teeth creaked loudly as a sign that he was holding back anger.

"I should have said that."

Mike's blue eyes glow at the end of the sentence. He had just learned that his army would grow stronger along with him. Now that he was already level fifteen, at least the strongest troops would be at level ten.

"Shadow gate."

Mike raised his right hand to the side. It was the same posture he had when he was roasting his troops. A gate began to form from the fingertips. It didn't take long until the gate was perfectly formed and his army of goblins and orcs came out from that gate.

Suddenly all pairs of eyes stared in surprise at the incident, especially Big Mama who did not expect this to happen. Mike's army had fourteen monsters with two level two orcs that were equivalent to a level ten goblin.

Though Mike with a heavy heart killed one level two orc who became his strongest army a few days ago, but all of it produced results that exceeded expectations. He had obtained two level two orcs. Plus the weakest goblin level was at level five. This fight has already determined the winner. At first Mike didn't want to use them, but he had no other choice. His priority was to protect the party members who had been dragged into trouble because of him.

"You even have such a terrifying ability?" Big Mama's voice sounded trembling as it held back the fear. He could see the defeat that was already waiting for him.

"Charles, we can talk about it, right? We've lived together before." Big Mama is inching backwards. He senses a threat coming from Mike.

"Don't I tell you not to regret your decision, Mama?" Mike smiled briefly. He raised his right hand up, preparing to give a warning to launch an attack.

Four other Mike members have also mounted horses with their own weapons. They can't continue to rely on Mike's army of monsters. There are times when their strength will be needed when Mike's troops are no longer able to fight.

Bobby who had just stood still began to show fear on his face. He was eager to run as hard as he could, but his legs were unwilling to move like someone would instantly split him if he dared to step just a little.

Mike remained unmoved by his position. He had to enjoy the look of the helpless face of the woman in front of him. Mike's life is ruined because of him. Mike's little family disappeared because of that woman. Mike won't kill in front of Balth, he's quite a bluff until this woman doesn't dare to deal with him anymore.

"Hey, Mama. Let's make a deal. I'll let you live if you dare to swear it will disappear from my life. Maybe it's better to continue the fight that's been confirmed who's the winner?"

The woman quickly shook her head. Mike's offer was not harmful to him, so there was no reason to reject the offer.

"And one more thing, I'll take the kids with me. Don't mind, do you?" Mike turned to look at the crowd of children whose age was not much different from the Gried. Their eyes were empty like there was no life.

Mike's second request felt very heavy for Big Mama, whose pleasure came from the children. But his life is far more important than his pleasure. He could gather the kids again after Mike left. Finally Big Mama nodded in agreement and released the iron claw that snared their necks.

"Good! Now I'm willing to step down."
