“Yes, I know. Rank 4th?”

“Oh, you know. Looks like your ranking checks are consistent. Luke's party is the first to enter the Forest of Silence. Luke and Azella, Anvil and Sylvest. ”

Luke and Azella know. Luke level 28 and Azella level 26. But I don't know the names Anvil and Sylvest.

“Who are Anvil and Sylvest? ”

“Haven't you seen the hunting videos they posted? Anvils are level 26 wizards. He's playing Hiller at Luke's party, and Sylvester's a 27-level dealer. She's level 26."

Hunting footage. I've never looked for one of those. Ajin decided to log out later and check the website.

“Anyway, the first party to enter the Forest of Silence arrived in the port city, captured the hunting grounds around it, and released the information. Thanks to you, most of the players have gone beyond the Forest of Silence. ”

Daisy chewed on her lips.

“A lot of players are gone already, so it won't be easy for us to suck them up if we're delayed. Then we'd better go the other way. We're going to the Cliff of the Seal. ”

A cliff of fame. A high cliff beyond the raging forest. Beyond that lies the blue volcano and the singing sea, he explained.

“A lot of players are headed there too, but I don't know any players who stepped over the blue-volcano cliffs. We're going after it. ”

“Rarity?”

“Proprietary, to be exact. Isn't that more fun? ”

Daisy smiles, making eye contact with Ajin. In saying that, he seemed to like her a little. However, it is more fun to target areas that have not yet been conquered than those already trampled and occupied by other players, and it is an advantage if successful. You can sell it for money.

“Then I'll let you have your party. ”

Azin, who was measuring the balance of the understanding room, nodded his head and replied. I thought it would be a good idea to join Daisy's party as soon as possible. You can throw it away if it becomes useless later. If the opponent is an npc, he still has no intention of engaging in hostile relations against the player. This is an online game.

‘Of course those sons of bitches have a different story. ’

Azin twists his lips. I'm going to give Luke and Azella a splendid revenge because of my hostility. Apparently, it was Asella who fought first. That gallows bitch interrupted what he was about to do and attacked him first. Not only did I kill him. Azin was not merciful enough to get hit in the back with a headache, and he was not Jesus who pushed his right cheek when he hit his left cheek.

Anvil, Sylvester. What if they don't want Azin trying to kill Luke and Azella? It doesn't matter. Kill them both.

“Really? Really? All right, all right, we're gonna build level 25 first. That would make a difference in level with us, but doesn't it matter? ”

“It's okay.”

If you don't mind, you can hunt alone when they log out and level up. It's not like I play games anyway, but I rarely do everyday life. It's not a problem because we are rotating the cycle of eating, chewing and sleeping little by little to avoid starving to death.

“Yes, let's hunt until 11: 00 in the game today. What time tomorrow? ”

“I'm fine with it. ”

“Then let's make it 7: 00. People live in different places, so they have different hours outside.”

Which country is this game aiming at? In Korea, there was about an hour difference. At 7 o'clock game time, it's around 6 o'clock Korean time.

“At night there will be a lot of wolves in the forest, so I think it's best if we party from 7: 00 to 5: 00. Is that okay?"

“I don't care. ”

Azin replied and the others nodded their heads. Daisy checks the time with a smile on her face.

“It's a little after 7: 00... so let's hunt till 12: 00. Take 20 breaks every two hours, right?" ”

Then the hunt resumed. Hunting was no different from the first time. The sewer drives the wolf, and azin and daisy catch the wolf. Lina gives Hill and Buff to the needs of the sewers and appropriate contingencies. The three of them had already played the party together from the beginning, so their hands and feet fit well. Argin was more comfortable there. All I have to do is put a spoon on the table the three of them serve.

At every break given 20 minutes, Ajin logged out and drank water or went to the bathroom. The way to take a break was all the same. It's because they are game closers and they leave somehow, and eventually they are all human.

“Well, I'll see you at the fountain tomorrow. ”

The group arrives at the village on time for 12: 00, greeting each other and logging out. Azin remains until the end, then turns back and heads for the woods. I don't know exactly, but they will be important outside of the game. Some will go to school and others may have jobs.

But it's not pain. For Ajin, virtual reality was a workplace and everything in life. Three or four hours of sleep a day is enough. Bob was eating simply and taking medications, including vitamins, in case of malnutrition. Excluding time spent on it, leisure time is luxurious. No, the time invested in virtual reality itself was the best leisure time for Ajin.

‘You're the best at making fun of yourself. ’

So you can enjoy and indulge. Azin bares his teeth and smiles at the realm of the Silver Wolf. Now that you have the benefits of party play, it's time to take advantage of solo play. Belonging to Daisy's party anyway is just to get used to the party play later, and to prepare for the cliffs of fame that she has yet to face. Although his power works in this crazy forest right now, there is no guarantee that he will be able to play solo from the famous cliffs or the blue volcano beyond. Daisy's party is insurance just in case.

Five hours of party play allowed Azin to reach level 18. Frequently used Thousand Detonators have also fully filled their experience points and reached 2-star. The constant use of the energy drain has increased the amount of internal air.

Now it's next. We made the Great Wall of Bombardment to 2-star, so we have to grow another one that hasn't grown separately. In the middle of the battle, it seemed that the blood flow method, which had continued to unfold, would soon reach 2-star. Except the Thousand Maestro River, it is made 2-star, and the blood flow method is also 2-star. Right away, Azin aimed for it.

Asin reaches the realm of the Silver Wolf, and moves quickly. I've experienced Silver Wolf through party hunting, but never solo. The Silver Wolf in a swarm is a tough monster to deal with by solo play. However, given that, when successful in hunting, a large amount of EXP can be consumed. That's the biggest advantage of solo play.

‘I should save up some money too. ’

The money paid for the hunt earlier was 2600 gold. Each wolf has two fangs and divides them into four. Wolf fangs are 50 gold each. Roughly translates to 104 wolves captured. Maybe 2600 gold in five hours. Since cash transactions have not yet been activated, we don't know how gold will be quoted, and most importantly, it is now a beta service. No matter how much you collect, it will eventually be reset. However, it is better to have money without having to think about making a cash transaction. I don't want to wear beginner's clothing forever, so I have to buy some mental potions.

Soon, Azin faced a pack of seven wolves. Even before the wolf caught up to him, Azin opened the Hundred Horse Visions and charged at the wolf. He intends to actively increase his EXP using the Celestial Mascot. I've also lowered my power's restraint for a quick hunt. Instead of the Thousand Wave, the ceiling extends and bashes the wolf's head in.

Cain! The wounded wolf rolls over the ground. You haven't killed it in a single blow, but you've taken enough damage. If you put too much energy into it, you won't be able to recover it to the energy drain. Azin decided to adjust his strength appropriately and spread a thousand words of welcome. I see it! The wolf behind you stands on the ground, drawing a vision by Azin.

Through the law of Marathon, the body of Ajin became strong. The best thing is that the power consumption was reduced. Minimum durability for rapid and explosive bursts can be used for optimal effect. Other than that, my senses became sensitive and I felt like I had one more eye on my back of my head.

‘Strength moves freely. ’

It felt like the air permeated in a single hair. It even gave me a crazy pleasure. Azin continues to move without hiding his smile. Azin's body, which unfolds a thousand visions, struck the wolf, creating a clear vision. The ceiling of the thousand waves that covered the air was fierce to a large number of wolves. Pufferfeng! The wolf's body rolls around the ground with a burst of strength. Attack is not the only thing. Ajin does not slow down his tension. He continues to move, avoiding the attack on the wolf, attacking the counterattack or stumbling wolf.

‘Slower than a party hunt. And... I have to stay tense, so I get tired quickly. ’

High mental power consumption and poor stamina. Azin picks his breath and looks down at the wolf's corpse. He clenches his tongue and opens the jaws of the dead wolf and starts pulling out his fangs.

“Apparently Acacia picked a good hand. ”

There were those who watched such a azin. A woman wrapped in black clothing with dark red flesh folds her arms in the air. The luscious red hair felt like it was on fire, and the thin green eyes sparkled like emeralds.

“That filthy bitch did it because of her cowardly tricks! ”

Primrose. The little girl grunts with a fat face. She throws out the sparkly blonde with her bare hands.

“My toys are so much better than that trifle. ”

“Oh, well. Your joke... was it LaQuiz? You were number two, weren't you? ”

The woman smiled and glanced at the Primrose. In response, Primrose nodded his head with a proud face.

“Levels may be pushed to Christopher's toys, but levels don't matter in this game anyway. How about you, Carley? Are your toys any good? ”

“You mean Harvest? Well, I'm meeting some expectations. But...

Karleya narrows her eyes. She licks her lips at the pain of hunting wolves while actively using the Clown Monk.

“I didn't make use of Hiddenpiece. Among the current players, the only one to reach Hidden Piece is Acacia's toy. ”

“Well, whatever. The Celestial Dragonfly... It seems that they are also eager to give off a Black Snow scent. ”

Primrose mutters in a low voice. The Black Snow. The Church's Bishop, the Blood Witch. She is Hiddenpiece, which gladios has dismissed, including Primrose and Carleya, Crissandham, Hyacinth and Acacia. And there are a few more Hiddenpieces like her in the world today. Finding it is entirely up to the player, and the player who reaches Hiddenpiece will have the power to outperform the other competitors.

“Maybe we should do a little behind-the-scenes on this one, too. ”

Karleya opens her arms and mutters. At that point, Primrose looked back at Karleya in surprise.

“What..? Are you going to intervene? Gladiolus...”

“He's not moving. ”

Karleya insists. She puts a meaningful smile around Primrose's shoulder.

“What we're limited to is direct intervention. I told you, he's the Duke of the Back. ”

“Gladiolus might be angry.”

Primrose mutters, shaking his shoulders. In her voice, a young horror knocks Karleya to the shoulder of Primrose.

“They're going to intervene without anyone noticing. Even Chrysanthemum's toys have found their way to Hiddenpiece. I don't know if it was his own luck or if there was an intervention.”

Her eyes narrow.

“If Chrysanthemum had intervened, we wouldn't have let him know either. So it doesn't matter? In the end, we don't want to get caught. ”

“... but...”

“Gladiolus will not go ahead with executing himself. In order to execute us, we need to agree to someone else's proposal, except the executioner's. If you don't want acacia, chrissanthemum, and hyacinth to find out, it doesn't matter. ”

Karleya closest lips to Primrose's ears. A stifling word hits Primrose's ear with a hot breath.

“Or Primrose. Sweetie, will you betray me? Are you going to pass my dishonor on to Gladiolus? ”

“Well, that's not it. ”

Primrose bows his head as he blushes his face. In response, Karleya licks Primrose's ear with her tongue stretched out.

“Good, then. I don't want to accuse you of anything. And... you want to win, don't you? Neither do I. I want to win. No, even if I don't win, I think the winner should be you and me. ”

That said, Primrose chewed his lips well. I wanted to win. Primrose, purely, wanted it. She reminds herself of competitors other than herself. Creepy Chrysanthemum, dirty Acacia... Unmotivated Hyacinth. You can't make those three victors.

The only thing behind Gladiolus is himself. Or... Primrose glances at Karleya.

“She has mastered magic. I'm thinking of connecting him to one of the arc mages. ”

As Primrose approaches, Karleya lets go of the arm that was wrapped around her shoulders with a slight smile.

“LaQuiz was a superpower, wasn't he? Then we'll have to connect him to one of the Espers. You don't want Acacia to be the only one drinking, do you? ”

Primrose nods slightly. In response, she smiled satisfactorily.

“Then that's it. There are many ways.”

Carloya looks down at Azin.

“We can't let him win over Acacia. ”
