I Hate Systems
chapter-516

"Kya!" Lota screamed, for the song felt grating to her ears.

It was sung by Ikun, Host to the Majestic Luck System. He was currently crowned emperor, leading an empire that spanned the entire area of a Realm.

Heaven Martial Spirit—Light Glory!

It was a fully support oriented Martial Spirit that was suited to a king. After all, anyone he targets as his subjects became vitalised, healed from status defects like poison, injuries, exhaustion, etc.

And, everyone he targets as enemies suffer from negative effects like exhaustion, injuries, diseases, etc.

Just this power was enough for a King to obtain wholehearted devotion from his subjects. But, Ikun was also boosted by the power of his Majestic Luck.

This means that, as long as he held the dignitary position as an Emperor, he was immune against a lot of things. One of this was the fact that he wouldn't die, or rather, couldn't be killed as long as he had subjects to lead that were wholeheartedly devoted to him.

This was the support trump card prepared by the Systems exclusively for this battle. After all, it was unnecessary for them to fight the Main Character. That was Straxia's job.

Their sole task was to destroy the Gaider Realm. This would deal a massive blow to the Main character's luck and would even shave off his traits as the Main Character, making it all the easier to kill him.

And to destroy the Gaider Realm, defeating their army was a must. Unfortunately, due to the Blood Vitality Pills, the bodies of everyone cultivator on the Gaider Realm was tremendously tough.

This allowed them to fight against two or three experts of the same cultivation and even win. This was not to mention the massive number of Origin Beasts on their side.

Thanks to the Sleeper Cell Seeds, the Origin Beasts too fought the battles. Even though they weren't individually strong, they had enough numbers to make up for it.

Besides, they used swarming tactics to overwhelm their opponents. It had worked at the start, but the moment Ikun's song began to play, their side became stronger while the Gaider Realm's side became weaker.

Even Balmer was slightly affected by this, making it slightly better for Lota. Though, as she despised his singing, she wasn't able to fully make use of this advantage.

"You bastard! How dare you use all your power against a fly?" Suddenly, a loud roar resounded throughout the battlefield, directed at Balmer, causing the other party to frown, gazing at the source of the annoying voice.

It was a man wearing a cloak, covered from head to toe. His body suddenly trembled, as his long sleeves fluttered in the wind, vividly expressing his feelings of sadness, conveying it to everyone, "She's just a mere fly. She only wished to live while sipping on nectar. But you…! You greedy bastard tried to kill her multiple times. You also set her home, the forest she grew up on fire."

"You're a greedy bastard that shouldn't be allowed to lead a Clan!" He pointed at Balmer, announcing aloud.

"What…nonsense is this?" Balmer was thrown off guard. But just when he planned to dismiss it and attack his opponents, he heard faint murmurs throughout his army.

"What? Is the Blazing Sun Clan Leader such a type of person?"

"Guys, don't fall for such a cheap provocation."

"The Blazing Sun Clan has indeed been monopolising all resources of the Gaider Realm. So, they are indeed greedy."

"What? Don't be an idiot!"

"Especially greedy individuals like Balmer are the reason our Realm is being invaded. Even though they are our opponents, I feel pity for them."

"Fuck! Where are these retards popping from?"

The regular cultivators quickly changed their tune, beginning to bash the Blazing Sun Clan and Balmer. In a matter of seconds, public opinion changed against the Gaider Realm's leading powers.

The only ones protesting against it were the Academy Graduates that knew better than to fall for the enemy's power.

The only who had spoken was Yaarliwar, Host to the Emotional Impact System. Leading the public opinion was his sole strength.

Moreover, his fusion material was related to the Mind Attribute, allowing him to affect public opinion with greater potency.

Heaven Martial Spirit—Wind Nightingale!

He had been saving up power to turn the public opinion against the Main Character. But now that he noticed a fearsome existence like Balmer, he decided to use Balmer as a stepping stone to target Compass Carburettor.

If the public opinion was already against Balmer, he could fuel it further and further until it spilled onto the Main Character, resulting in chaos that disrupts all of Compass Carburettor's plans.

"Damn you! You dare fool us?" A water attributed expert from the Gaider Realm bellowed in anger, unleashing an attack onto Balmer, "Die!"

He was someone that wore his emotions on his sleeve, the type to take action before thinking about it. So, he and his type were the first to be influenced by Yaarliwar, turning against Balmer and the Blazing Sun Clan.

Instantly, they sparked a civil war, causing the opponents to stare at the scene incredulously.

"Look at her!" Yaarliwar bellowed with a grief-stricken voice, pointing at the tiny figure of Lota, "See how she's trembling. Poor her! She's tiny and has to endure such abuse, such bullying, and such a terrifying extent of sadness as she watched her home be destroyed, her family killed, and she herself was almost roasted."

"Such a gruesome fate for such a tiny, helpless fly!" He began to sob in the end, causing tears to flow out of those from the Gaider Realm army—those that hadn't been part of the Academy.

'Screw your bald tiny head! I can become a hundred-metre-tall giant wasp if I want!' Lota screamed internally.

Whether it was the song that boosted their morale and suppressed their enemies or whether it targeted Balmer, both the abilities relied upon words. And these words portrayed her as a fly, when in turn, she was a wasp.

Not even that, she was a human that had just turned into a wasp. She wasn't even small and helpless, or anything that she was described as…

But here she was, turned into propaganda to fool their enemies.
