Sacrifice.

(As the Commoner Fields was undergoing a raid by the Realm Conqueror Trirae, Yinlong continues to battle Trirae without holding back while protecting the villagers who are alive and those who are injured. From a stream of energy beams targeted Yinlong to a massive energy wave, Yinlong continues to avoid the attacks and defend himself and the village continuously.)

"Trirae: Its such a shame really... If you would've jumped out during the Tower of Combat, there would be no reason for such pitiful creatures to be killed."
"Yinlong: What did humans.. ever do to you..?! WHAT THE HELL?!"

"Trirae: Since you've asked, I'll gladly tell you... The puny little apes known as Humans have always despised me. Why be something so balanced when the smallest mishap could tip your ship overboard? I'd rather not be looked down on as a weakling when I could be the strongest conqueror in this damn game! I've decimated many humans in my time for their pitifulness and just because they exist... But since that day, that very damn day you've eliminated and humiliated me... I've sworn to kill you and take my time with your death! I'm going to enjoy breaking you piece by piece..."

(As Yinlong then was speechless with nothing to say, he'd squeeze his hands tightly and activates his Human's 4th Awakening into Superhuman mode and resummons his 6 star sword, Hell's Excalibur as Trirae then for the very first time, reveals his Beast race's 4th awakening, allowing him complete control of the darkness along with a powerful aura surrounding him to slow down nearby enemies within the range.)

"Yinlong: I don't give a DAMN about leaving you alive... I don't give a damn about your reasons now... I WILL TAKE YOUR HEAD!"

(As Yinlong and Trirae in sync rockets to one another and begins to excessively fight across the Commoner Fields grasslands, craters were made for every aggressive block and strike the two delivers to one another. Trirae traps the right arm of Yinlong into his tail and throws him directly to the ground with an endless barrage of energy beams with full power energy to strike him as Yinlong aggressively swings faster than Trirae could shoot the beams.)

"Yinlong: ..."

"Trirae: Do you know what I despise about you truthfully..? I've found out during the Tower of Combat you've eliminated Wing Lord and the rest of the Heroic Crusaders... That very thought made me sick but what even made me hate you more was the fact of all races, you chose to be a simian! I should've killed you at the very risk of being eliminated from the Tower! But now... No restrictions.. No assistance.. No allies to back you up! YOU WILL DIE!!!"

(As Trirae then fires a full power energy blast at Yinlong. He'd stare down the blast without moving a muscle before noticing it shifting direction towards the village chief which triggered Yinlong to rush quickly to his side and defect the blast with Hell's Excalibur as Yinlong looked behind him to see Trirae with the deed to the Commoner Fields realm and burns it right in front of him. With a quick scare of disbelief, the realm began to tremble and quake for the higher authority of Worldly Conquest is taking severe action.)

"Trirae: HAHAHAHA!!! LET THE DESTRUCTION AVERT YOUR EYES, YINLONG! THIS IS YOUR FAULT FOR PROTECTING THEM!!"

(As Trirae vanished from the collapsing realm while cackling in victory, Yinlong began to panic and save as many villagers as he could until he was called out to by the village chief.)

"Village Chief: Y-Yin..long... r-run..."
"Yinlong: I can't.. I CAN'T LEAVE YOU ALL HERE..!! PLEASE...! LET ME SAVE YOU..!"
"Village Chief: ...You may be a hero Yinlong... b-but.. this.. is our sacrifice.. Our price.. for not.. being.. just.. as v-vigilant as you..."

(As the Village Chief was slowly disintegrating, Yinlong looked up to stare at a massive vortex, swallowing the entire Commoner Fields whole as he continued to panic and left with no choice but to place back on his Quick Warp Earring and vanish to the 50th Realm, returning to the safe zone, the Region of Dawn outside the doors to the kingdom. After moments of silence, Yinlong along with all players of the game has received a notification from the game that the Commoner Fields has been destroyed as Yinlong began to hyperventilate and out of anger, yells out of hatred and frustration. Two weeks past in the game and Yinlong was now a resident within the Dawn Kingdom as Princess Kyilei was listening to the incoming news on the Gladiator Royale coming tomorrow.)

"Male News Reporter: With the rise of anticipation in many fans, the Gladiator Royale is confirmed and ready to be put into action! All six competitors have been given their own lockers and private rooms as our contenders prepare to enter the Gladiator Royale, here in the 100th realm! Fans have began to swarm the beloved contenders such as- Oh! W-Wait, excuse me! Excuse me!"

(As the reporter approaches the confident Rakuzora, he'd laugh heartly while giving the reporter his attention.)

"Male News Reporter: Mr. Rakuzora, could you share your comments with us on tomorrow's Gladiator Royale?!
"Rakuzora: HA! HA! HA! HA! Gladly! I look forward to fighting such powerful adversaries one by one! I've participated in the Gladiator Royale 19 times and I plan to make this my 10th win!"
"Male News Reporter: Is there anyone you'd like to call out before the royale?"
"Rakuzora: Actually there is! Sir Yinlong of the Region of Dawn, if you get this message, I pray your recovery went well and I look forward to fighting you one on one someday!!!"

(Rakuzora then walks off laughing still, the news reporter continued to cover the Gladiator Royale preparations as Imani approaches Kyilei with her early dinner.)

"Imani: Your dinner, your majesty."
"Kyilei: Ah! Thank you kindly, dear Imani. Is there any updates on Sir Yinlong's condition?"
"Imani: ...He hasn't left the guest room in days. He was gone from the Commoner Realm for far too long and he was afraid that this would happen."
"Kyilei: To think Trirae was responsible for destroying the Commoner Fields... I'm going to talk to him."
"Imani: Don't be too long, your food might get cold.."

(As she goes to Yinlong's room to check on his condition, she'd open the door and peeped in, noticing the room remained spotless but quiet and gloomy with the closed blinds.)

"Kyilei: ...Yinlong..?"
"Yinlong: ..."

(Yinlong was sitting on the edge of the bed still remembering the traumatizing thoughts of everything that was taken from him within minutes.)

"Kyilei: Yinlong, you've locked yourself in here for two weeks... I think you should come out."
"Yinlong: ...Even if I did, I don't have a home to go back to."
"Kyilei: ..The Dawn Kingdom can be your new home...!"
"Yinlong: I'd rather not let my alibi ruin the reputation of your royalty, Princess. I'll just live in one of the town's inns."
"Kyilei: That will not do. Yinlong, you're a veteran of the game... You lost most of your skill and reaction speed, yes. But you're still one of the strongest individuals I've ever known!"
"Yinlong: ..."
"Kyilei: I dare anyone of the kingdom to have anything to say with someone as legendary as you to be within my presence!"
"Yinlong: ...I'm just a Stray, not someone who can be looked up too."
"Kyilei: ...Someone who can't be looked up too?"

(As the two were silence, Kyilei turned around to face the door and looked back at Yinlong.)

"Kyilei: Come with me."

(While Yinlong followed Kyilei to her personal quarters, she'd open a hidden passage then walks down spiral stairs, leading to a magic sealed door which she then opens and reveals a massive archive library of heroes in the Dawn Region's history. With awe on Yinlong's face, Kyilei then flips a nearby light switch, revealing a personal hall of glory for Yinlong himself before his departure from Worldly Conquest, a year ago along with his famous feats as "Sinner".)

"Kyilei: Yinlong. You left the game for a year and you're telling me you're weak now? 162 Attempted raids, 93 successful raids. Top player of the year, 1994 to 1997. Single-handedly cleared the Angel and Buddha raids, two of the hardest raids in the game. Conquered four realms from Animatronics during the Technological War in the 70's and defended them ever since. You even dethroned a former member of the Counsel of Origin and killed a God! You're not a weakling Yinlong, you may have thrown the name away but you can't throw away the history you've made with it!"

(As Yinlong looked at every single feat he's done formerly as Sinner, his mind began to overrun with thoughts and memories, remembering every action he's done, word he said and decisions he's made. Yinlong then slaps himself back to reality as he then regained his senses.)

"Yinlong: ...You're right. The Village Chief even told me... not everyone is immortal forever. Our deaths are bound to come someday, even if we respawn or not. Kyilei, if I'm going to avenge the Commoner Fields, I need your help."
"Kyilei: Anything."
"Yinlong: ...I need the location of Trirae as soon as possible, I'm going to make him suffer for the type of pain he gave me... Then prove to him, Humans aren't pitiful simians, we're a powerful race with the balance of fight and flight!"

(Meanwhile in an unknown realm, Yinlong's former clanmate, Dakakos was sitting at a table where he continued his game of chess, knowing the black set of chess pieces has lost a pawn, the Commoner Fields as the king Yinlong remains protected by his one knight Asmedai and the two rooks, Kyilei and Imani remaining on the field as the two rooks, Sonata and Yawasoko were eliminated from the game. As for the white set of chess pieces, the Heroic Crusaders costed Dakakos five of his pawns, leaving Solar Magician, Trirae and the unknown Sea King on the way to fight Yinlong.)

"Dakakos: ...He's quite a more sketchy fellow ever since the Tower of Combat. Sikara!"
"Sikara (Race: Guardian | Dakakos's Subordinate | Sinner Rating: ???): Y-Yess.. Lord Dakakos..?!"
"Dakakos: Do you understand why Yinlong is getting stronger?"
"Sikara: U-Um... Well around six updates ago, Humans were given a small buff. For every ten minutes within a fight, the Human race's adrenaline can multiply by five and act as a strength multiplier by dividing itself in all areas of combat and the adrenaline only lasts five minutes-"

(A sharp knife was thrown at the side of Sikara's neck which scared her to death as she slid down to her knees against the wall and held her bleeding neck.)

"Dakakos: You're absolutely right. This cannot do. With the strength Yinlong has now, I don't see a reason why not to send the Sea King."

(Dakakos then moves his 8th pawn, the Sea King who coincidentally tracked Yinlong's location and is on the way towards him to fight and kill him.)
