Distere tapped the [Yes] button as he accepted to become a member of the chat group.
It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to join a chat group and it was his dream as an otaku in his past life to become a member of a chat group. Although he wouldn’t become the admin of the chat group since it wasn’t his golden finger, Distere was already contented since being a member of a chat group was already a big deal for him.
After all, from what Distere knew, a chat group has chat group members that are prevented by the chat group system from fighting with each other. This meant that Distere would have the chat group members as his allies as long as he didn’t offend them.
And Distere wasn’t going to seek death by offending the other members of the chat group since he was well aware that a chat group at least has one powerhouse. He wasn’t like those young masters in eastern fantasy novels who would court death as if it was nothing.
And since it wasn’t detrimental but instead beneficial for him to join the chat group, Distere didn’t hesitate to become a member of the chat group.
After Distere tapped the [Yes] button, a system screen appeared in front of him.
[Ding!]
[Apostle Of Zenchianism has joined the chat group to spread his beliefs about Zenchianism!]
[Lolicon Shota Cultivator With Soul Fetish (Mod): That was fast. @Apostle Of Zenchianism, welcome to the Alternate Multiverse Chat Group!]
[Self-Proclaimed Genius Goblin Hero: @Apostle Of Zenchianism, don’t forget to call me senior since I am one of the founding members of the chat group!]
[Time Manipulator Of The Apocalypse: @Apostle Of Zenchianism, Don’t listen to @Self-Proclaimed Genius Goblin Hero. Although what Axel said is true, he isn’t worthy of respect. He is literally the troll and death seeker in this chat group.]
[Reality’s Bitch: So the new member is a fellow apostle? Although the two of us serve different existences, the fact that the two of us are apostles can be considered as fate. @Apostle Of Zenchianism, if you need any help, as long as I am not busy, I will help you.]
[Apostle Of Zenchianism: I appreciate the welcoming and congratulations as well as the support. But can anyone please untie me from this damn wooden stake? I am going to be executed just a few minutes from now!]
Although Distere appreciated the warm gesture from his fellow chat group members, he still hadn’t forgotten that if he wasn’t freed from the wooden stake, he would be executed by that damn old man!
[Reality’s Bitch: Only those who participated in the Main Task can provide you with that help. So I can’t assist you this time, @Apostle Of Zenchianism.]
Realius would have helped Distere in his current predicament since he had offered to help Distere. But even he was powerless when it came to dealing with the restrictions of the chat group.
[Supreme Order (Admin): @Apostle Of Zenchianism, I’ll free you from the wooden stake. If you are wondering, I am the one who talked to you via telepathy as well as invited you to this chat group.]
[Apostle Of Zenchianism: @Supreme Order (Admin), thanks in advance! And thank you as well for inviting me into this chat group.]
Distere wholeheartedly thanked the admin of the chat group since if it wasn’t for him, he might really have been executed. And not to mention, he was invited to a chat group which he had read in fanfictions before, and he was aware that joining a chat group would broaden his path to becoming stronger.
***
After offering to help free Distere from the wooden stake as well as receiving Distere’s thanks, Allen closed his system screens and turned off the telepathy skill as well.
Using his <Supreme Mage>, <Supreme Psychic>, and <Supreme Time Manipulator> talents, Allen used magic and psychic power to stop time!
Allen’s surroundings slowed down until they came to a halt. His surroundings didn’t become black and white during his time stop as the colors remained. The only indication that time had stopped was his surroundings coming to a halt.
Not wasting any time, Allen used his teleportation magic to teleport to Distere’s side. The executioner and the group of knights that were on the wooden platform were motionless as they weren’t aware that Allen had teleported near them.
Distere was also affected by the time stop so he was tied to the wooden stake while Allen was using his mana to untie Distere from the wooden stake. In an instant, Distere was freed from the wooden stake.
Using his teleportation magic, Allen teleported Distere to a deserted alley which was the coordinates that John had given him before. After teleporting Distere, Allen didn’t lift the time stop since he still had time to continue its effects.
Allen released his mana as he manipulated it to enter the group of knights and the executioner’s body. Allen further controlled his mana inside their bodies until a clump of mana surrounded their hearts.
With a crushing hand motion, the mana that surrounded their hearts followed suit as it crushed the hearts of the knights and the executioner. The knights and the executioner were already dead as they died from the inside. Only Allen who has monstrous control over his mana could ever perform such a feat and not to mention doing it on multiple targets.
After killing the knights and the executioner, Allen teleported to the deserted alley where he had teleported Distere before. Arriving at the deserted alley, Allen noticed that someone was standing near Distere’s body.
And that someone was none other than John Skier aka Time Manipulator Of The Apocalypse, who was immune to Allen’s time stop.
“I can’t say that I didn’t expect this to happen.”
Allen commented as he eyed John who sat near Distere whose body was laid on the ground.
“As expected of the admin, you can even perform time stop and possibly other time-related abilities. Fortunately, I am immune to time-related abilities.”
John commented as he thought about Allen’s arsenal of <Supreme> talents.
As John had expected, <Supreme> talents were a cheat and he couldn’t wait to receive the time-related <Supreme> talents that he requested from Allen.
