The Over-Break System

”Alright, there are only three difficulties to choose from, and the logical choice would be the middle one, Master. I feel that if I decide Grandmaster, my ass will get cooked in this war in no time.” Selene thought aloud as she raised her hand and clicked Master.

-You have selected the Master Difficulty, adjusting the settings and parameters for your Trial Quest.-

-In two minutes, you will be transferred to a Virtual realm amid a great war. This war is between the Allied MultiRace Army and the invading Abyssal Demon Army led by a Tier-7 Being.-

-Both Armies are split into different Battalions, each with a Commander 1 Tier higher than the forces they are in charge of.-

-You will be slotted in as a Tier-2 Commander of the Allied MultiRace Army, and your job is to slaughter your way to fame and fortune. The timeframe for this war is one week, and your target kill goal is 5000 Tier-1 Abyssal Demons, 2500 Tier-2 Abyssal Demons, 500 Tier-3 Abyssal Demons, and 10 Tier-4 Abyssal Demons.-

-If you fall in battle or don’t meet the target kill goals before the timer runs out, you will be considered to have failed your Trial Quest.-

-If you amass more kills than necessary, added rewards will be distributed during your Tier-3 Evolution.-

”Holy fuck,” was all that Selene could say before she was deconstructed into particles and teleported away from the white room.

In a distant time and space, an enormous battle was taking place. The kind was never seen on Earth but had happened in the past on Vinestra. Armies, well over 10 million soldiers in size, clashed against each other. At the same time, High Tier beings flew overhead through the sky, exploding like fireworks as their Affinity Skills crashed into one another.

The sounds of metal on metal crashing were nearly drowned out by explosions and cries of anguish as the iron smell of blood flooded one’s nostrils. From time to time, powerful beings would yell out orders as they attempted to reestablish their lines on the battlefield.

This was the scene Selene was ruthlessly dumped into by the Passing Down Interface, which Tobs had hijacked.

Before she knew it, Selene had shifted into Dark Mana particles thanks to her [Void Shift], narrowly avoiding an explosion generated by a blast roughly the size of a small meteor hitting the spot she had spawned.

’MOTHER FUCKER, GIVE A GIRL SOME WARNINGS BEFORE YOU DUMP HER INTO HELL TOBS!!!’ Selene screamed as she put some distance between herself and the 300-meter crater. The open hole in the surface of the planet honestly scared the shit out of Selene as she realized that if she had been even a moment slower, she would have probably been vaporized by the blast that seemingly came from nowhere.

Floating away from the destruction, Selene took in the sights of everything in a 360-degree view and was both startled and excited by what she found. It was one thing to read and hear about battles this size, but to be thrust into one was another story altogether.

It didn’t take long for Selene to zero in on a group of mixed beings, some Beast people, some elves, and of course, a few humans mixed in as they fought against humanoid demons nearly twice their size.

Wasting no time as she saw people being cut down like cattle, Selene shifted back into a solid and, as she dropped from the sky, drew her Shield off her back and her spear using a teather of Mana.

Like a comet streaking through the air, Selene smashed into the ground and went to work targeting the much larger Abyssal Demons.

”Huh? Who the fuck is that human?” One of the beings, a Male LigarMan, yelled as he hacked off the head of his opponent before moving on to aid his comrades.

”No idea, Garr, but she seems to be at the Peak of Tier-2, no Half-step Tier-3?” An Elven man said as he dove to the side and unleashed a volley of arrows into the head of a Demon.

”Shit, what the fuck is she? She looks human, but how she fights is like no Human Martial Art I’ve seen before; plus, is that Dark Mana swirling around her visibly?” One of the humans, a female assassin, said as she flickered in and out of sight.

Selene didn’t bother her new allies and quickly activated her Húðflúr, allowing her to control Mana more freely. Fortunately, her glowing marks were perfectly hidden under her Armor, so no one was the wiser. The only telltale sign that she was even using them was that her eyes held a faint blue glow, the same Royal shade as her Húðflúr.

Still, no one was ballsy enough to get close and inspect her physically, as the moment Selene entered the battle, she became a War Goddess, as she effortlessly slaughtered Tier-1 and Tier-2 Demons like chickens.

With a thought, Selene activated her Movement Skill, Tier-3 Valk-Vanguard Skill [Vœttfang Fljótliga], and in an instant, became an even bigger force to be reckoned with.

The added 35% to AGI and DEX went a long way, but Selene didn’t stop there, as she activated her crowd control skill, Tier-3 Valk-Vanguard Skill [Hrafn’s Slita], launching 15 of the nearby opponents to her after a single hard stomp on the ground.

After upgrading the skill with points, the scope of [Hrafn’s Slita] had increased drastically. Whereas before, it could only pull in a maximum of 3 people with its vacuum, now it could draw in a max of 15 opponents, and now that Selene had done so, 15 bodies dropped to the ground, throats slashed, and missing body parts.

The sudden slaughter was so violent and unexpected that for an area of 50 meters, everyone who was fighting froze and stared at the Armored Selene as she spun her spear and cleared it of gore.

Meanwhile, the person in question never stopped moving since the instant she stopped; her movement skill would be broken and go on cool down.

”che, TAKE THEIR HEADS!” Casting a side glance at her supposed comrades, Selene scoffed loudly and raised her voice while using another upgraded skill, Tier-3 Valk-Vanguard Skill [élugi].

-Tier-3 Valk-Vanguard Skill [élugi]- (Stun)

-Category: Active Crowd Control Skill.-

- You are the terror of all those who stand against you on the battlefield. With just a glance, your foes know their lives are coming to a bloody and painful end.-

-By letting out a battle cry, you can trigger a 75% chance of inflicting the Status effect STUN for 15 seconds on all enemies within a 30-meter radius. THIS SKILL DOES NOT WORK AGAINST THOSE WITH A HIGHER MIND STAT THAN YOU.-

-Cost: 1000 MP, 500 STAM-

-Cooldown: 25 Minutes.-

All of the Abyssal Demons within a 30-meter circular area locked up as if hit by a taser, dropping their arms to their side and staring forward with blatant fear in their eyes. Half a second later, over 200 Tier-1 and Tier-2 Demons fell dead as the Allied MixRaced Army capitalized on the opportunity presented by Selene.

Chants and excitement roars rang across the battlefield as all of the Allies near Selene were given a few seconds to breathe without being forced back into battle. Still, this didn’t apply to Selene as she once again set about slaughtering near-helpless opponents significantly under her power level.

For the next several hours, this was how things progressed. Selene would make her way to a new location, walk through the enemy forces like a wrecking ball, rally all the gloomy and tired Allies and move on to a new location.

By the time the war horns sounded off, signaling the retreat of the Abyssal Demon Army, word of a woman in black Armor had spread throughout the Allied Armies.

Sitting off to the side, behind the sizeable demilitarized zone’s barricades, Selene kept to herself while cleaning off her weapons and Armor. Having spent the last 12 hours embroiled in combat, her formerly pristine and clean Armor was slick with a thick layer of grey blood.

Wearing only the thin protective athletic shirt and pants, Selene caught the attention of several warriors as they passed by. Seeing the black Armor she was cleaning, they lost their desire to hit on her and instead were filled with awe.

Their actions didn’t go unnoticed by Selene, yet she kept an aloof and unapproachable vibe up, as she wasn’t in the mood to deal with bullshit. Putting aside her contempt for men that weren’t in her party, Selene was aggravated by the numbers reflected on the notifications Tobs had sent after the battle concluded.

-Current Kill Tally.-

-Tier-1 Abyssal Demons: 723/5000.-

-Tier-2 Abyssal Demons: 308/2500.-

-Tier-3 Abyssal Demons: 25/500.-

-Tier-4 Abyssal Demons: 0/10.-

’Twelve fucking hours, and I barely made a dent in what I need to complete my Trial Quest.’ Selene grumbled.
