Even a King can be shocked
King Hope looked coldly at the figure that stood between him and his meal. Apparently, it was a female and aesthetically speaking, it was considered acceptable. If we were to speak only of appearance, it was not unpleasant to look at such a figure.
Two figures looked at each other, neither of them showed any emotion on their faces, they looked like two high-level artistic paintings placed against each other, both of them had beautiful white hair.
While one had fair skin, the other had vibrant purple skin, their eyes met, completely white eyes against eyes as black as night.
Two short swords appeared in the hands of the black-armored figure, his body was enveloped in purple electric currents that crackled throughout his body.
The knight advanced quickly, concentrating lightning on her sword, spider legs pierced the king’s white suit, he put both hands in his pocket and used the legs that rose from his back.
Blades and paws crossed, causing shrapnel from the friction where the blows crossed, two more paws came out and the king rose from the ground, increasing his mobility.
The knight fired several purple balls of electricity towards the king, who in turn used his paws to defend himself, still with both hands in his pocket, he used two of his paws to propel himself forward, while the other two cut as if they were swords.
The king’s paws were shaped like a curved spear, with a metal tip, the ground was quite uneven with debris and dead trees scattered everywhere.
The uneven terrain presented no difficulty to the king, who used his paws to move around.
Seeing that the enemy easily dodged her attacks, the knight decided to be more aggressive, she focused completely on the attack disregarding her defense, she could regenerate very quickly so suffering a few hits was not a problem.
The fluid movements gave way to an aggression that the king had to reckon with, however, the moment the knight found an opening in exchange for a light wound, her body glowed purple before disappearing before the king’s eyes.
The king’s eyebrows rose for a moment, his eyes swept the surroundings in search of his opponent, but there was no trace of her, his other senses and abilities also failed.
King Hope didn’t think much about it, two of his paws retracted to his back , the remaining two he used to reach Alex.
In just a moment, the unconscious Alex was lifted by the collar, before devouring the king he decided to test one of his abilities that allowed him to look through the window of another person’s system.

The functional skill as expected, this skill was really useful for choosing his prey and for avoiding those that the king could not deal with at the moment, with this skill he could choose his opponents wisely.
Two things caught the king’s attention, he was genuinely surprised, the first was that just like him, the human in his hands also had the class of king.
"King of Camelot, aren’t you? I wonder what the kingdom of such a weak king like you is like?" Hope spoke to himself.
"After I devour you, I will know what your kingdom is like, and perhaps learn a few things about ruling a kingdom from your memories. Since you are very weak, I should not get my hopes up."
Another point that was most important was a characteristic of the system, being lucid, this information was right next to the part that said, awake, the first word had more importance.
Hope opened her own system window and next to the word; awake, was the word, Half lucid, of all the information the system made available, this was the only one the king could not obtain.
Hope browsed the memories of the humans her progenitor had devoured, one, two, three times she repeated several times but was unsuccessful, there was no mention of this element of the system.
"I wonder if I will obtain the information I seek from their memories? My progenitor and I have devoured awakened beings before, I wonder what a lucid being must taste like...?"
King Hope threw Alex’s body to the ground, for a second he felt a great danger coming from the human, a wave of power that made him tremble overflowed, forcing him to throw him to the ground and adopt a defensive posture.
The next moment everything returned to normal and the danger Hope felt disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
Before the king’s eyes the window that floated silently in his field of vision was updated, it wasn’t the king’s window, it was Alex’s status window that Hope was seeing.
NAME ALEX, LUCID, AWAKENED BEING
Class = King of Camelot
Title=Bearer of Excalibur
Gravitational Manipulation=Lv2

He felt and saw the human’s body being emptied of all its attribute points, soon after the human’s attribute points returned, but this time they were distributed equally to most of his attributes.
Hope was confused, he thought he had average knowledge about hunters especially because he could count the memories of several hunters in his mind. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novᴇlfire.net
Even with such a repository of memories, the phenomenon he was witnessing was completely atypical.
"What are you really? Ho! King of Camelot"
Before Hope could rest easy, something even more surprising happened after thirty minutes of considerable observation.

The King was extremely shocked, the King of Camelot went from a weak king that Hope could despise to a king that Hope had to reckon with.
Finally, the Spider King saw the King of Camelot open a pair of purple eyes.
