System's POV

Chapter 602  You And What Army? 

"Zion Leventis, I presume?" Khan asked as he observed the human boy who didn't look special in his eyes.

"That's right," Thirteen replied. "Truth be told, I'm surprised to hear that the leaders of the 12th Floor are very fluent in human language. You guys are very smart."

"Smarter than you, at least," Khan chuckled. "Because no sane human would dare to challenge someone like me, especially when they are as weak as you."

"You're not wrong," Thirteen nodded. "But, who said that I will be fighting you alone?"

The teenage boy and the King of the Apes held each other's gaze. To his surprise, the Grievefoot saw that there was no hint of fear in the teenage boy's eyes. On the contrary, there was even a faint smile at the corner of his lips.

It was as if he had everything under his control despite the fact that he was facing off against a monster who could kill him by simply spitting in his direction.

"You challenge me to a duel, but I'm sure that you don't mean that you're going to fight against me, right?" Khan asked. "Because even a million of you will not be enough to defeat me."

"Oh, I'm not too sure about that," Thirteen smirked. "But I'm really surprised. Just where is that confidence of yours coming from?"

Harahon, who was listening to the conversation, looked at Thirteen with a dumbfounded look on his face.

A weak human dared to ask a peak Rank 8 Monster, who could also increase his rank to a Rank 9 Sovereign if he wished, where his confidence was coming from?

Even the Apes serving Khan couldn't help but look at the teenage boy in shock, wondering if his head had been kicked by a monkey when he was still a child.

"You're asking ME where my confidence is coming from?" Khan, who was sitting on his throne, sneered. "Yes," Thirteen replied. "I find it funny that you think that you're some kind of big shot."

The sneer on the Grievefoot's face widened before he picked a fruit that looked like a coconut from the small pile beside his throne.

He then flicked it towards the teenage boy, aiming for the latter's foot, so that he would kneel before him.

But before the pebble could hit Thirteen's legs, O1 appeared and hit the coconut with its spiked steel bat, sending it back to Khan with double the speed.

The Rank 8 Monster caught the coconut between his fingers before crushing it completely.

"Is this why you are feeling cocky, boy?" Khan asked in disdain. "You think you can defeat me with a single Rank 6 Ogre?"

After eating the Majin King's flesh and blood, O1 and O2 had finally increased their Ranks to the next level, becoming Rank 6 Ogre Juggernauts. But despite standing five meters tall, the Ogre was still smaller than Khan, who was twice his size. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Who said that I have only one Ogre?" Thirteen arched an eyebrow. "Even if you have more, what can you do?" Khan said with contempt. "You are going to fight me and my subordinates? You and what army?"

Thirteen snapped his fingers, and O2 appeared by his side.

After that, Giga, Blacky, Hercules, T1, the Trolls, and Ratatoskr made their appearance.

The teenage boy then held a black banner in his hands, and the Parade of a Hundred Demons, numbering two hundred, appeared before him.

Finally, Rocky rose from the ground and roared at the Grievefoot, raring to fight.

Harahon, who was watching from a distance, couldn't help but frown after seeing Thirteen's army.

One Peak Rank 7 Sovereign, six Peak Rank 6 Sovereign, nearly a dozen Rank 5 Alpha Monsters, and two hundred Rank 1 Monsters who would serve as cannon fodders.

This lineup was enough to give the Monkeys a headache, but it would not pose a threat to the Apes, who had the same number of Rank 6 Sovereigns, double the number of Alpha Monsters, and hundreds of Rank 4 Monsters making up the bulk of their army.

Khan stared at the teenage boy's pitiful army before laughing out loud.

While he was surprised that the boy was hiding strong subordinates under his command, this puny army was nothing compared to his own.

His laughter became louder, making the trees in the surroundings start to sway from the sheer force that was coming from his body.

"Hahaha! This is where your confidence is coming from?!" Khan laughed. "Yes," Thirteen replied. The Grievefoot once again laughed out loud because this was the funniest thing he had ever heard in his life.

This wasn't the first time that he had interacted with humans. He had already dealt with them before he was forcefully taken to the Temple of Courage to become the Boss Monster on the 12th Floor.

He truly felt the scene in front of him very laughable, so he laughed out loud, making his laughter reverberate in the surroundings.

But just as he was laughing, a shadow fell over him and his subordinates.

Khan's loud laughter halted, and he even nearly choked when he saw the gigantic monster who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Standing a hundred meters tall, Cranky looked down at the Grievefoot with a very annoyed expression, its arms crossed over his chest.

The Savage Colossal Honey Badger then let out a low screech, as if asking the puny ape, "What's funny, bruh?"

An awkward silence descended on the 12th Floor as both Monkeys and Apes felt a strong pressure coming from the Colossal Savage Honey Badger, who had been forcefully woken up by Thirteen, by thrusting a stick on Cranky's bum while he was sleeping.

True to his name, Cranky was feeling Cranky right now.

However, Thirteen told the Honey Badger that he was only forced to wake him up because he was being bullied by an Ape.

Cranky, who didn't have the heart to smack Thirteen for waking him up, decided to vent out his frustration on the one who bullied the teenage boy, which led to the current situation.

The Honey Badger, who didn't get the answer he wanted, screeched louder.

(A/N: What you are going to read next is monster language. I'm just translating it for you guys. Kekeke.)

"Bruh, why did you stop laughing?" Cranky asked. "Go on. Keep laughing. I want to know why you are laughing before I smack you."

"I-I…" Khan, who was very confident earlier, suddenly found it hard to say anything.

Right now, he was looking at an Archon, which was a monster that he didn't have the confidence to defeat.

(A/N: Archon is the counterpart of a Majin Prince. Since Cranky is not a Jinn, he can't be called a Majin Prince. So Archon is the equivalent of monsters of the same Rank as a Majin Prince).

Suddenly, a loud laughter was heard from behind Thirteen's army.

"Your day has come, Khan!" Harahon appeared beside Thirteen, looking very happy. "I am Zion's ally! We have formed an alliance, and we're here to beat the crap out of you!"

Pica and Pico, who had landed on Cranky's shoulder, looked down at the Umbrafang with disdain.

When the teenage boy had come to ask them for an alliance, the leader of the Feral Monkeys refused to fight alongside them.

But now, not only was it saying that they were allies, but Harahon was even talking down on Khan as if he had already won the battle.

Cranky, who was already feeling cranky, clicked his tongue before using his foot to kick the monkey away from Thirteen's side.

The pitiful Harahon slammed into the nearby trees, destroying everything in his path until a tenth of the Great Forest was destroyed. After dealing with the annoying monkey, Cranky once again shifted its attention to the Ape, who was starting to regret his life choices.

"I asked you a question, Bruh." Cranky emitted a pressure that slammed down on Khan, making him kneel in front of Thirteen, whom the Ape wanted to kneel a while ago.

"Why did you stop laughing?" Cranky asked. "Continue to laugh. Because that will be the last time you will laugh before I smack you to oblivion."

Khan, whose fate had been sealed, started to laugh while tears and snot dripped from his eyes and nose. He and the rest of his subordinates knew at that moment that they had royally f*cked themselves up.
