Chapter 30
While the tension was high only for DalkemSoBoDut’s situation, spectators lounged around the field as if it was their own home, exchanging idle chat.
[General] Youngglory: Then shall we make a toast^^?
[General] BoatToBottle: A toastㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Baekdu: Would you give us a toast speech?
[General] Youngglory: Of course^^ I’ll use something everyone will recognize immediately
[General] cnfqkf: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ?
[General] BoatToBottle: Oh, I’m excitedㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Youngglory effectively caught everyone’s attention as he raised his glass high.
[General] Youngglory: Prepare to d1e~
[General] Hwasan: Come back alive~
[General] Baekdu: Come back alive~ oh ♡♡
[General] Shotgun: Come back aliveㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] SaltySalt: Come back alive~!ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Tourist: What the hell is thatㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ that’s so childish f1ckㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Kilfrisun: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ are you cr1zy
[General] Tochu: Ahㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ by any chance, is the Grace guild master of a certain age?
[General] Youngglory: ^^
While Grace guild members cheerfully shouted along, spectators grimaced at the toast of unknown origin.
DalkemSoBoDut, who knew the source of that toast, turned bright red and fumed. The fact that Grace guild members knew about the whisper he had sent to Girmu meant that Girmu had blabbed about it in detail like a little tattletale.
“This bastard, seriously.”
When Girmu used a skill, DalkemSoBoDut dodged it easily. More precisely, the skill’s range stopped exactly in front of DalkemSoBoDut’s face.
“Don’t you even know the range of your own skills, idiot~”
Avoiding the depressed area created by the skill’s effect, DalkemSoBoDut moved to the right and used his trump skill ‘Binding.’ It was a unique skill of the Dragon Knight class, a skill with a tragic fate that was only used once in the early game to capture dragons before becoming relegated to PVP-only use.
While Girmu was momentarily stunned, DalkemSoBoDut approached Girmu’s side and used the ‘Breath Sword’ skill. Following the trajectory of his swung sword, an enormous flame undulated like a blade of energy, enveloping Girmu.
“He’s f-cking toast.”
Snickering as he prepared to chain into the next skill, DalkemSoBoDut hesitated momentarily.
‘What’s going on?’
A subtle sense of discomfort tingled at his fingertips, but he couldn’t figure out why. Even when his second skill accurately hit Girmu, that feeling of unease remained.
‘This bastard…’
Is he deliberately taking hits? No. That can’t be. He’s just a terrible Valkyrie who has no choice but to keep getting hit.
‘But why isn’t he dying?’
After taking so many direct skill hits? In PK zones, potion use is restricted with a cooldown. So chugging potions constantly isn’t possible either. So shouldn’t he be lying on the ground by now?
[General] SaltySalt: ㅇㅅㅇ;;
[General] cnfqkf: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ? What’s this, how is he holding up, is it a bug
[General] Sinu: ㅋㅋ
[General] BoatToBottle: What’s with that knowing smile?
[General] SaltySalt: Ah
[General] SaltySalt: Ah no way…ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
F-ck. DalkemSoBoDut felt sweat not only on his back but also on the hand gripping his mouse. The moment a sinister premonition brushed his crown, Girmu, who had been only taking hits since the first skill, put up a chat bubble.
[General] Girmu: The damage isn’t coming in as much as I expectedㅎㅎ
[General] SaltySalt: ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠWhat have you done this timeㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
[General] DalkemSoBoDut: ♡♡
[General] Sinu: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Youngglory: ^^??;;;;;
DalkemSoBoDut muttered curses non-stop as he backed away from Girmu, who was frantically preparing a skill. Though he managed to dodge by a hair’s breadth, the danger remained. Still, the Dragon Slayer class that Girmu used was notorious for its long post-skill delays, so he couldn’t attack again right away-
‘What the hell, f-ck!’
DalkemSoBoDut, who had charged back in trusting in the long post-skill delay, was surprised when Girmu rolled diagonally and immediately used the Wing Cutter skill, leaving him unable to react instantly.
[General] SaltySalt: I’ve seen that somewhere beforeㅇㅅㅇ
[General] Sinu: ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] SaltySalt: Ah,, I saw it while editing,,,ㅋ
[General] Baekdu: Isn’t Dragon Slayer post-skill delay cancel super difficult???
[General] Hwasan: Are you a newbie? Doesn’t seem like itㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Hwasan: Ah why do you keep talking before me?
[General] Baekdu: ㅋㅋㅋj1rk ㅗㅗㅗㅗㅗ
[General] BoatToBottle: Baekdu really living up to your nickname;
DalkemSoBoDut was so frantic that the small talk between Grace guild members didn’t even register in his eyes.
“How is my health draining so much with just one skill…”
He was getting anxious watching his rapidly decreasing health. His hands were extremely busy, frantically spamming potion keys while moving his character around.
“Ah, sh-t…!”
The moment he slipped and hit the wrong direction key, Girmu used his initial skill.
[Dragon Slasher!]
With an unbelievable amount of damage displayed, a small dragon that flew up from DalkemSoBoDut’s shoulder shrieked “Kiek!” and plummeted to the ground. The sword energy flying in three directions was clearly aiming for him next.
Sensing the fate that was about to befall him, DalkemSoBoDut slammed his keyboard violently.
“Ah, f-ck!”
“Boy! Didn’t I tell you to fix that habit!”
BANG! The door opened with a sound louder than the keyboard smashing. DalkemSoBoDut yelled at his father who had entered through the door.
“Ah, get out!”
“This little punk, showing such disrespect to your father… Come out right now!”
DalkemSoBoDut gritted his teeth as he glared at the screen. Girmu was saying something as he approached his fallen character, now gray and collapsed.
‘F-ck!’
Irritably turning off the monitor power to avoid the irritating sight, he felt his father’s piercing gaze on him.
“Fine, I’ll go!”
[General] Girmu: You’re not saying anything…
[General] Sinu: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] SaltySalt: I bet he alt-F4’d the moment he died ㅋㅅㅋ
[General] Shotgun: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋcr1zy why hit me
[General] SaltySalt: ㄷㄷ
While DalkemSoBoDut was struggling in real life, Girmu and the Grace guild members gathered around his corpse. When DalkemSoBoDut showed no response, their attention quickly shifted elsewhere. For instance, to why Girmu didn’t even feel a tickle when hit by DalkemSoBoDut’s skills.
[General] SaltySalt: Girmu-nim quick open your equipment infoㅇㅅㅇ;;
[General] Girmu: I just did
[General] Shotgun: Wow cr1zy what is this;;;;
[General] cnfqkf: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ???/ what am I seeing
[General] Maeil: Wow…
[General] Hwasan: You’ve really been grinding;
Not just the Grace guild members, but even the spectators were shocked when they saw Girmu’s full +15 equipment. The consensus was that this level of money-flaunting bordered on madness.
[General] Shotgun: But I like this newbie ㅋㅋ
[General] BoatToBottle: Me tooㅋㅋㅋ A newbie bathed in blood… Even the orange-colored nickname from your first PK is appealing
[General] SaltySalt: That’s my hyung-nimㅇㅅㅇ; stop coveting him you all
[General] Sinu: ㅋㅋ?
[General] Hwasan: Newbie-nim, I’m meeting you for the first time today but I smell something
[General] Girmu: Me?
[General] cnfqkf: Ahㅇㅈㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ the smell of talent suitable for our guild
[General] Maeil: I like it!
[General] Baekdu: Everyone’s talking like they know the newbie… But I agree
[General] Youngglory: Girmu-nim, would you like a formal guild invitation?^^
Users either admired or cheered at the sudden recruitment offer. But Girmu, who had unexpectedly been put in a position to consider a new home, declined without much thought.
[General] Girmu: I’m sorry, I’m still a bit hesitant about guilds…ㅎㅎ
[General] Sinu: Ah;
[General] SaltySalt: ㅠㅅㅠ…?
When Sinu first used a skill on DalkemSoBoDut’s corpse, SaltySalt followed suit. Users who quickly distanced themselves were shocked by their next outrageous action.
[General] Sinu: Whose fault is thisㅋㅋㅋ
[General] SaltySalt: It’s those people’s faultㅇㅅㅇ
The plateau became complete chaos when the two started indiscriminately using skills toward the Pasan guild in the distance without even showing hostility. Some ran away, some doubled over in laughter, and others joined in the mayhem.
Amidst the pandemonium, someone used the World Megaphone to advertise this big event.
[General] BoatToBottle: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋhave you all gone cr1zyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
[General] Youngglory: ^^…
While Youngglory stood calmly with a smile, a magic circle was forming beneath his feet. As he waited for his casting to complete, nearby spectators scattered in panic. Simultaneously, a red text notification appeared in the World announcement.
[World] ‘Grace’ guild has declared war on ‘Pasan’ guild!
