Queen Tanya is merciless and even to her friends, as long as it is a battle, she will not hold back.

Her scythe started to emit heavy dark energy that the pressure from it is getting stronger. She spins it around and the scythe's maw started to drip black liquid which means it has already reached the 100% synchronization of power that Queen Tanya has injected into it.

She taps the ground using the tip of the Scythe's maw which then resulted in several black chains appearing in the ground like spikes. They were rapidly appearing from the ground that I have to dodge multiple times to evade them completely.

I changed my weapon to a staff and used it to channel magic spells and rapidly release spells in succession since the damage is amplified if I use the right equipment to use the magic or skill.

"[Ice Prison]! [Shocking Lightning]!"

"That won't work!" she waved her scythe towards my direction and all the spells I used were backfired towards me.

Thankfully, the backfire damage isn't that impactful as they reflected on her actions. However, the armor I am wearing no longer can endure the brunt of damage it receives from Queen Tanya and it breaks to pieces. It was a good thing I didn't wear any valuable armor yet as I am planning to create my armor from scratch myself but this leaves me in a vulnerable spot as I was left wearing are the regular clothes you wear once you enter the game. They spawn once your armor broke though they won't spawn if your armor dropped when you are killed. This only works if you are still alive but the armor's durability is reduced to zero.

I may have survived the backfire but I am going to be so dead if I don't mitigate things before it gets very worse. I quickly equipped my trash armor that I have been keeping in my inventory as a material for armor smithing once I get the ores but I have no choice but to use them. I will die in one hit without wearing a single piece of armor.

While I was equipping my armor, Queen Tanya attacked again, this time, her Scythe's blade extended, and a deep hollow roar that seemingly came out from the depths of hell bellows the maw and she swings it towards my direction.

I leap from the maw but Queen Tanya is known for being clever in attacks. That dodge I make is not going to be sufficient to dodge her attacks. The moment I was in the air, black chains immediately darted out from her hands and tried to attack me. I already predicted it and have already changed my weapon to Shield and Spear before holding the damage out.

But her attacks are too strong that even my shield can't handle the full impact of her chains which resulted in my body sent flying once again.

"Hey, Pioneer. Is it just me, or are you not trying at all? Like come on, show me what you got! Don't kick the bucket yet! You are the first guy who took the brunt of my attacks and managed to live! We still have 4 minutes left so endure it!"

"Don't worry, I am not done yet!" I wiped off the dust in my face and stood up from the rubble and switched to my Bow and Arrow weapon and shot [Trueshot] among the other arrows before switching it to guns and switched positions.

Queen Tanya did not underestimate my abilities and did not catch it head-on. Instead, she attacks the arrows I fired instead of catching them head-on as most enemies do. However, she has no time to destroy all of the arrows and she has to dodge them. I took this chance to attack and fired a barrage of bullets in her direction while she is busy dodging all of the arrows I fired off previously.

But those bullets I fired only grazed her skin and did not even damage her. I even looked at the damage counter how much damage she received from the bullets. She stopped for a bit but she stood up again after being hit by a barrage of bullets.

-you inflicted 1 damage!

-you inflicted 1 damage!

-Critical! You inflicted 1 damage!

...

The string of words on the damage is just a list of 1 damage. Even the critical damages are just a string of 1 damage. I can't even move past the 1 damage tier.

I also caught sight around the near end of the string of 1 damage a longer message.

-The [Death's Favorite] exclusive effect activated! Instant Kill!

-Queen Tanya's ability, [Death's Disciple] activated! All skills related to Death will be nulled!

I never expected the instant kill effect with low chances of [Death's Favorite] will proc in my battle against Queen Tanya but what I didn't expect more is to see something that can nullify the effect of the instant kill! I saw an ability or passive effect that can nullify instant kill in the game even in the past since even bosses are vulnerable to it.

Queen Tanya was also surprised and grinned as the darkness being released from her scythe started to get more intense.

"Ha! To think I will meet someone other than me who is acquainted with the Goddess of Death! That is something I never expected!"

Her attacks intensify and the attacks started to get harder to block and parry those attacks. Heck, even dodging them is not an easy task as it is similar to dodging a homing missile that will track you till the ends of the Earth.

"I know I am a disciple of the Goddess of Death but I have never seen someone to have been able to catch her sights. It seems you have done something to allow her to bestow her blessings to you. However, as a queen and a proud disciple of the Goddess of Death, I will not just stay and acknowledge you as same as me. Therefore, prove it that you are capable of handling her power!"

Chains erupted from the ground and bind my whole body.

-You have been inflicted with Poison(Extreme). You will lose 200 HP every 5 seconds during the duration of the skill.

-You have been inflicted with Skill Seal(Extreme). All skills will be unusable for 5 minutes.

-You have been inflicted with Bind(Extreme). You will be unable to move for the duration of the skill.

-You have been inflicted with Mana Drain(Extreme). You will lose 500 MP every 5 seconds during the duration of the skill while the caster will gain 500 MP every second.

I grit my teeth in my situation. I still have around 3 minutes left before I will be able to clear this, but I guess I won't survive with all of the debuffs inflicted on me. I have seen Queen Tanya used this skill before but she has a lot of disadvantage on this ability.

She can indeed inflict these debuffs in one go but she is also vulnerable as she can't attack while she is using the skill. It was good for me since she can't attack me while the skill is active. The bad thing for me is the poison and Mana Drain. They are both in Extreme status meaning they are the strongest types and they are not to be ignored.

"I admit you are strong. However, you are still far too weak for me that I have to struggle going easy on you to avoid you from getting killed in the process. I am just going easy on you and yet you are still unable to handle the pressure of my weak attacks and abilities. You have yet to begin your hardship so I can understand that. But if you can't handle this much, I don't think you are worthy to gain my help."
