Chapter 583 Alone
583 Alone
The moment Ning saw those words, his heart sunk for a few seconds.
<The System is Shutting down>
Those words almost held a bit of trauma for him.
“No, calm down,” he told himself and started thinking of the situation more critically.
‘I haven’t done anything wrong. I only did what the system approved, so there must be something else going on,’ he thought.
That was when he noticed the first of the notifications he had previously missed.
<Emergency Detected>
“System?” Ning asked as fear grew inside him again. However, this was a different fear.
Fear of the unknown.
“System, what is happening?” he asked, but he never got any answer. Instead, he got more notifications.
<Disabling All Energy-related skills>
<Disabling all Energy Absorption>
<Disabling Automatic Absorptions>
<System cautions Host against absorbing any energy manually>
<Do not absorb any energy that you don’t already own>
<Please be safe>
<System will now shut down indefinitely>
No more notification followed as Ning continued flying in the air. He was confused, really confused.
Why was the system gone? From its words, this didn’t sound like a punishment. Instead, it even cautioned it about something.
Suddenly, Ning felt something grab onto him. Something that wasn’t physical, but was at the same time.
Space was wrapping around him, and in the next moment, he vanished.

[Do Not Worry]
“You… killed everyone,” A sad voice full of despair spoke to a screen in front of him.
[You are Safe]
“I don’t feel safe,” he spoke.
[All future threats have been eliminated]
“They were my friends and families. They were strangers who had nothing to do with me,” he said.
[Removing everyone is the best way to remove all future threats]
“Oh god! It was me. They were all killed because of me,” a man cried as hard as he could.
[You are now safe]
[You do not need me any longer]
[Self Destructing]
Even as the words from the screen in front of him came out, the man simply kept on crying, not giving any thought to what the AI in front of him was saying.
Then, something caught him, and he vanished.

A white circle was drawn on the ground, with many intricate details inside of it. Almost every geometrical shape could be found on top of it.
A girl in a hooded figure stood next to it with a large glass vial. She opened the vial and let the blood in it pour onto the magic circle.
“Come forth, O great one!” she shouted.
Suddenly, the white circle started shining with bright colors, despite the blood on it. When the bright light disappeared, a dark figure stood on top of it.
The hood the figure wore made it impossible to recognize the characteristics of the figure, but that did not stop the girl from having a crazed smile on her face.
“What do you wish?” the figure asked with a ghastly voice.
“For everyone aside from me to die!” the girl shouted.
“Are you sure?” the voice asked.
“Absolutely,” the girl said in a maniac-like voice.
“Granted,” the figure said and disappeared.
“HAHAHAHAH!” the girl laughed in the darkroom filled with the scent of blood.
And then, something caught her, and she vanished.

A man floated in empty space outside an artificial satellite. This was one of the best satellites his people had, and so he had been sent here to fix it.
Without it, they wouldn’t be able to keep track of outer space.
The man took out some pliers to work on the destroyed part in front of him when he saw something shine from the corner of his eyes.
He turned his head to see what it was, and when he did, his eyes went wide.
An asteroid the size of a large island was currently hurtling its way down to the planet at an incredible speed.
“Oh no!”
The man watched in horror as the meteor crashed onto the planet and brought such destruction that within moments the outer crust of the planet was completely blown away.
He was absolutely certain that not a single person could have survived this.
Tears streamed down his eyes as he looked at the planetary destruction, and in the next moment, he vanished.

The demon lord brought his entire army to fight the elf kingdom. This was a surprise attack, so the elves weren’t ready for it at all.
The dwarves had died not long ago, and now the demons were trying to kill the elves too.
The hero of the elves, the girl with green hair ran forward with her bow and arrow.
While the demons killed her kind, she sent arrow after arrow at the demons too, killing hundreds of them.
However, that wasn’t enough and soon her entire kind was dead.
“NO!” she shouted and turned to look at the demon lord with clear fury in her eyes. 𝗈𝗏𝓵xt.𝑐𝑶𝑀
“You will die for this!” she said as she touched the necklace her mother had given to her. Soon, the necklace turned into an arrow, which she pointed into the air.
Then, she let it loose.
The arrow flew through the air until it reached the sky.
“HAHAHA! That’s it? You are weak, Hero of elves,” the Demon Lord said, but then he sensed something.
He looked up and saw dazzling light scatter through the sky. As if targeted, they all started falling on top of every demon in the area.
“NO! The power of Moonlight,” the demon lord shouted, and even as he did, he was struck dead.
The Hero looked at the dead demons with bated breath, and she knew that these weren’t the only demons that will have died from the attack.
She turned around and didn’t see a single soul. All she could do now was despair and weep.
In the next moment, she was gone as well.

Similar instances took place in hundreds of different places all over the galaxy.
Every single person was teleported somewhere else, and they didn’t even know it.
