[Ding! Day 3, time remaining 10 minutes.]
The chime from the day before had returned, causing you to look at it with an interested gaze. At this point, you might as well go with the flow. What's the worst that could happen.
[Ding! Host has triggered Murphy's law. Good luck.]
"Oh." You say in a flat tone. "I haven't even made my bed yet.." Rolling out of bed you stand up and stretch, not at all concerned with whatever the hell all that is. As far as you're concerned, you're hallucinating.
[Ding!]
[One minute remaining before next encounter..]
You enter the kitchen again, this time with pants on and receive a buff.
[Buff: +10 decency]
[Sir Ant-drew has returned! Prepare for battle!]
Sure enough, the ant was standing, and yes, you read that correctly. The ant was standing beside the sugar container with an actual sword, full armor, and a cape.
"Is he evolving with every fight? The hell?" You say in disbelief. Though you do have to admit the armor is a nice touch.
With a shrug you reach out and slammed your hand down on the counter top. But to your surprise something different happened-
[Sir Ant-drew has parried your attack! Stun locked for two seconds!]
[Telepathic link established]
"I have come for you, Colossal! I shall smite you! We have had enough with our kin being slaughtered by you. We shall crush you and everything you hold dear. You will feel the pain we have felt tenfold!!"
You raise an eyebrow but shrug once again, clearly you're losing your mind, so why not play along? You clear your throat and respond:
"How foolish! You think you can best me? You're in MY domain and here-"
You gesture to the kitchen as well as the house in its entirety.
"-I rule everything." You raise your arms and swiftly bring them down on to Ant-drew. He valiantly tries to parry, but you fake your twin attacks, catching him off guard before slamming your right hand down before he recovers.
[Ding!]
[Title update: Sworn Enemy of The Red Queen. 23 hours..]
You were about to celebrate your victory until..
[Ding!]
[Ding!]
Two more notifications pop up along with a new screen, and the color of the panel changed from blue to gold.
[Message received from: The Red Queen. It reads as follows: "You have slain my best knight three times now, before I would have overlooked this transgression had Ant-drew been any other mere Knight but now I simply can not. You claim this dominion as yours? Then fight for it."]
Royal Guard number four out of four, Ant-ax
Level: 15
Skills: Parry, Super jump, and Dash
Ant-ax was visible larger than Ant-drew by at least 3 times. It was definitely a weird sight since ants shouldn't be nowhere near this big. But that isn't what caught your attention at all, nope.
Royal Guard, #1 of 4, Leo.
Level: 30
Skills: Unknown.
Leo, the ant, was easily the size of a fucking tarantula.
"What the actual fu-"
Murphy's law, you either love it or you hate it.
