Chapter 188

SCREECH!

The colossal Scorpion with seven tails, three mouths, robust scale, screeched as it shot venom from its tails at the guild members.

"I have got this!" Nero yelled and cast a magic attack that trapped the colossal scorpion in the ring made of fire.

"Huralk! Your turn!" Darrel yelled.

"I know!" Huralk dashed at the monster and said, "Kecocan! I am ready!"

Kecocan shot a cannon ball-sized bullet from his gun that hit and exploded the scorpion’s one tail.

Darrel caught up with Huralk and cleaved two more tails of the scorpions.

"Now!" Nero yelled.

All the other nine mages fired their most vigorous magic attack at the same time.

The scorpion was severely injured and stunned for a few seconds. All the knights and rogues dashed at the scorpion and dealt as much damage as they could before the scorpion regained its senses.

The archers shot on the fatal parts and kept the scorpion stunned for a few more seconds.

Suddenly, one of the scorpion’s tails, which they all thought was cleaved, moved and shot venom at the knights and rogues.

"Healers!" James called out for the other healers as he healed the injured players.

"Don’t worry about getting injured! We have got you! Just focus on the Scorpion!" Patrick reassured the injured players.

The other eight healers also focused on healing and watched all the players closely.

They have already lost a massive chunk of their guildmates on the floor 75th, out of which some were their friends.

"Don’t be too harsh on them, Patrick," Nero quipped. "Since they can feel the pain, you can’t expect them to focus on the monster. That’s pure sadism."

"You are not wrong, but as long as they don’t die, we can heal them. If you think about it, healers would be useless if no one got injured," Patrick responded with a shoulder shrug.

SIGH!

James sighed and facepalmed himself as he said, "And he is at it again."

"You guys should focus on the monster!" Darrel yelled as he threw one of the cleaved scorpion’s tails at James and Patrick.

All the scorpion tails were cleaned, and only two of its heads remained.

Everyone frowned their faces and said, "Time to end this annoying pest."

All the mages once again fired their strongest attack, but this time, the archers also fired with them at the same time.

The scorpion stumbled upon impact and got stunned.

"Vice-Capita—"

Victoria dashed between the players and passed through the knights and rogues. She pulled out the sword from the sheath and dash-jumped at the scorpion.

SLASH!

She landed a few feet away from the scorpion and placed her sword back in the sheath without looking back.

She didn’t even confirm if the scorpion was dead or not.

[Floor 90 has been cleared! Proceed to the portal to enter the next floor!]

However, it was only because Victoria was confident in her strength.

Even though she was only level 52, and compared to the other top players in the guild who were above level 60, Victoria was still stronger than them in real-time skills.

Sure, their stats were high, but they lacked the intelligence and precision of mastering the sword art skills. Victoria could easily learn new things thanks to her photographic memory.

Victoria was the topper in high school, and she was ranked second smartest in the country. She was born a prodigy, and her intelligence was beyond extraordinary.

That was the reason why Victoria thought of herself as someone special. She wanted special treatment from everyone. She had great pride and ego, which was normal for a girl like her.

Even in school, when other students confessed their love to her, she not only turned them down, but she humiliated them when she rejected them.

That was a huge turn-off for a few of the students who had a crush on her, and they started hating on her. That also included the teacher who spread the fake porno.

A few days before that incident, the teacher confessed to Victoria, and obviously, she rejected him and humiliated him. It was not only immoral for the teacher to have feelings for his students, but he also tried to force himself on her by blackmailing her.

When he spread the porno, all the students believed it was real, and Victoria’s fame dropped. No one talked with her, and her friends and classmates ignored her. They called her slut and what not.

Even the school officials had started researching the video to inspect it so they could take action against Victoria in case it turned out to be true. So they gave it to an expert to check it.

Victoria’s life had become hell, and she wanted to prove her innocence.

That’s when the teacher came in and said if she slept with him, he would delete the video. He blackmailed her and threatened her to post more videos like that.

Victoria was enraged, and she wanted to file a complaint against him. However, she couldn’t.

The school officials had asked the person (expert) to check the footage was none other than the same teacher. He could tell them that the footage was real and it would have destroyed Victoria’s social life.

Victoria’s parents aimed her to become an idol and surpass them both to achieve what they couldn’t. If the footage was proved to be real, Victoria’s whole life would have turned upside down.

Of course, she wasn’t going to keep quiet about it, but she couldn’t tell that to anyone.

Luckily, she had already met Zach during that time. And as they got closer to each other, the teacher got angry and released another porno with Zach as a male and Victoria as a female.

It was when Victoria hinted that the teacher did it. Unfortunately, Zach didn’t get the hint, but Shay did, and he told Zach about it.

After the teacher went missing due to some ’unknown’ reason, Zach and victoria started dating.

By that time, Victoria had fallen in love with Zach because he was with her in dire times. She confessed her feelings to Zach even though her parents warned her not to date anyone. She went against her parent’s order and dated Zach, but her ego and pride remained the same.

Zach was the same, and that resulted in them fighting a lot.

But fortunately, they patched up, and both of them got together again.
