Desire

“Ninety-five... ninety-six...”

I closed my ears and my eyes. I turned my back and bent my head. I wanted to open my eyes, but Russell wouldn't open his. I couldn't open my eyes because I was so afraid of Azin who was struggling towards me. He said if I opened my eyes, I'd kill him. The solemn and simple threat, all a little girl could feel and do was fear and obedience.

“Ninety-seven... ninety-eight...”

I wonder what happened to Carl. Russell thinks of Kars, who was beaten by Azin and vomited blood. Carl and Russell were childhood childhood childhood friends. Carl's father was a knight called Sir Lutrio. I retired because my right leg was broken, but I used to have very good skills, so many underlings still come to visit me now. That's why Carl and Russell became close. Carl's father, Rutrio, broke his leg and retired. Lord Rutrio was a former knight, but not so knowledgeable and proud. He was a semi-noble, but he did not distinguish between the commoners and the nobles, nor did he enjoy luxury.

Ninety-nine hundred.

Subnobles are literally subnobles. I'm not a noble.That's why I can't give my identity to my children. Nominally, Karls was a commoner, and Russell was a commoner. Her parents were also ordinary people. Under the parents of a small bakery, Russell grew up mediocre and became a pupil in the eyes of a wizard from the Kalyas school who accidentally visited the shop.

“I... counted them all.”

I had all sorts of thoughts. What happened to Karls? What happened to me? Would it have made a difference if Carl's father had been here, Sir Rutrio, or Gessed, Russell's mistress? Russell recalls Lord Rutrio, a cripple. Former knight with a loving smile. At the same time, you think of Sezu Gessed. A wizard in a white beard and a red robe. After that, what came to mind was the face of Ajin who was smiling at himself. This is pointless. There is no Lord Lutrio or Gessed here.

“Well done.”

After a while, Azin wipes his hands from Russell's ears. Russell is stunned by the resounding voice. My pee-pee leg trembles. She wanted to look back, but she couldn't. In Azin's hands, he smells the blood of darkness.

“Aren't you curious about what happened to your friend? ”

This man is evil. Russell trembles as he hears his voice in his ears. I wonder if you do. I don't want to see him. I don't want to see him... But he was kind. He turns Russell's head and lets him look back. Russell's mouth opens, screaming. But Azin put his hand over Russell's mouth.

His appearance, I don't know... should he call him Karl? Russell denies the thought, trembling less. The Karls she knew was not that awkward. Carl stares at himself with his dead eyes, revealing his skeleton to the bones. Russell looks like he's going crazy and pees again.

“Now that I've listened to you, I won't kill you. But I'd like to ask you a few questions. ”

Azin crouches and says in front of Russell, shaking less. Russell looks at Azin's calm eyes and thinks over and over again. This guy's crazy. How can you kill a man and not see any movement like that?

“If you heard me, answer me. ”

“Yes, four! ”

Russell nods crazily. At that, he twisted his thin lips and smiled. He reaches out and strokes Russell's head and asks with a gentle voice.

“You listen well. Very good. Then, let's start asking questions. You said this was the Forest of Tranquility, right? How far are we from the crazy woods? ”

Russell stutters and explains Azin's question. A raging forest, a forest of tranquility, a forest of pain, a forest of forgetfulness. All four forests are called the Forest of Despair. Through the Forest of Tranquility they reach the raging forest. Asin continued to ask. The city of the forest is the only port city on the island, and has recently been told that it is not sending ships to the continent due to poor sea conditions.

Hearing that story, Ajin understood the world of obscurity. This is where the beta tester was thrown, and you will not be able to leave the island during the beta test. Well, if you sprinkle only a thousand players on a wide continent, you won't be able to face each other. Of course, in that case, it would be good to grow exclusively in the hunting grounds, but it would be no different from a single game.

‘The basic enemy hunting ground is the Forest of Despair. Other than that...'

Blue volcanoes, cliffs in the mountains, and singing oceans. Azin nods, stammering at the place Russell was talking about. That's where monsters often appear.

“You're a good boy. ”

Azin smiles faintly as he looks at Russell. Russell answered all of Azin's questions. However, there is still the most important place.

“How do I get out of these woods? ”

“Yi, follow this path and you'll get out. ”

Russell tells the story trembling. That's it. There's no more reason to hold onto this NPC. Azin smiles and puts his hands on Russell's head. I'm not trying to pet you. Azin opens the energy drain while firmly grasping Russell's head.

“Ugh!”

Russell's face turns white. She trembles at the energy drawn from her head and the accompanying helplessness. Azin reaches out and shuts Russell's mouth. "Wizard." It's said to be an apprentice, but it should be somewhat magical. Wouldn't Russell have more energy? Azin guessed it would be a blur. The amount of energy drawn from Karls was insignificant. This is why resins who have suffered so hard are not right.

‘Kill this bitch first, then go to the port city. There... "

I couldn't think any more. Pubbuck! A shot arrow pierces his shoulder. Ajin stops the energy drain in the throbbing pain and gets up. Attack! He looks around, his expression stiffened.

Pavak! I see arrows falling from the air in his eyes. Azin hurriedly flew away. Pufferfolk! The shot arrow has just plunged into the ground where the pain was. Russell screams.

Up in the trees! ’

Azin hurriedly raises his head. At that moment, I met a woman falling from a tree. A woman with two eyes full of contempt landed on the ground, curling her blue hair.

“Player?”

Asin didn't answer the question I asked. She's a player! Ajin breaks an arrow in his shoulder, his expression distorted. If you draw it, you will only bleed more. Azin quickly rotates the internal air and pulls up the hemopericardium. The woman who accepted Ajin's silence as positive spit it out while aiming at the pain with a crossbow.

“You beast..! Against immature children...! ”

“I didn't rape her. ”

In her contempt, he smiled and replied. The question distorts the face of the woman. In the gap, the sick rush towards the woman who was beating the ground. This is the first player I've met since I started this game. It may not be bad to spread the flowers of society while talking like this, but I couldn't help but attack from one side and make a good first impression on the other.

‘My level is 9. Hemocardia has a 5-star energy drain of 9. ’

The energy drain, LV 8, rises one level by turning Karl into a corpse. Skill levels are quite high, but what about player levels? Acacia has stated that you have the lowest level of 1000 beta players towards Azin. Maybe so. If so, she'll be more level than Azin.

Good material, Azin thought. Seeing the rushing pain, the woman twisted her lips instead of aiming a crossbow.

“You dirty bastard, you're making a move! ”

The woman quickly crossbows behind her back and draws the sword that was wrapped around her side. A combination of archery and sword. What kind of sword? We can't find out right now. I can't figure out how to use a sword with a cardinal formula. Moreover, even if I looked through all the swords in the Book of Unleavened Materials, I still don't remember them all.

‘You don't seem to have made a choice. Then the total volume in the air may not be that different. ’

Swordsmanship is diverse and powerful, but the internal air that can only be built up by sword is less than the internal law. The hemorrhagic method of azine is five-star, with a fairly high internal air buildup through the energy drain.

‘Let's give it a try...! ’

Wedge! The woman twists her lips and reaches out her sword. A sword shot like a beam of light flies to Azin. A woman is added to the length of the sword. After all, there is a difference in the rich, so it is painful to lose money. Of course it's a story when it's right. Azin twists his waist and breaks as soon as the woman's sword is fired. A sword from the woman's outstretched cheek grazes him. Ajin widens his feet, Awakening his mind to the bitter pain on his cheeks.

Got it! A big swing of fist flies to the woman. The woman leans back heavily, her expression stiffening. Azin's fist, which contained the internal air of the hemorrhagic heart hole, was also fast, but the woman's body was also fast. Quickly, she reaches for the blade and stabs it in succession as she retrieves it. In a flash, Azin sees the sword shot at him and realizes what obscurity is.

"Silverblade!"

It is the feast of the divination window, a sword boasting of piercing like light arrows. When the woman opened her sword, Azin couldn't hold on to it at that speed. Ajin frowns and quickly moves his body. Phew! I can feel the pain on my side of the blade. But it wasn't enough that I couldn't move.

If we drive into melee combat...! ’

Azin turns sideways and bends, avoiding the flying sword to his chest. Then I grabbed the ground to the woman. Her weapons are crossbows and swords. If you approach without even wielding your sword, victory is this way.

‘My body is too soft. This is why I'm afraid of being hit...! ’

The problem is her body. Her wounds are decreasing rapidly, and her black is never dull. But I can't help it. We have to take some damage and kill her. Injuries sustained. You can recover with the energy drain. Azin prepares to explode as he pulls the hemopericardium to its extremities.

“Get on your knees, you son of a bitch! ”

The woman continues to draw her sword, shouting. The piercing beam of light strikes the pain again. But he didn't stop. He shrugs his left shoulder and instead gets attacked. Phew! The blade pierces through his shoulder. Kagagagaga! But Ajin runs relentlessly. The blade pierces your bones, but Azin moves his arm. This body is an avatar anyway. If HP is not zero, it will not die. Azin reaches out his left arm and grabs the woman's wrist.

“Wha..?! ”

"The Lion's Choice!"

Azin opens his eyes and loosely clenches his right fist. The ball that was used in the Moorish wind was remembered in the head of a hazy but azin. Although I have not mastered the cardio and cannot move the internal air, I remember the movement roughly. Azin grabs the woman's wrist and whips her neck with a loose fist.

“Queek!”

The woman staggers, breathing heavily, with an attack on her throat. But it doesn't stop. Azin throws the air into his fist and hurls out quickly. Pubbuck! A fist stretched out, loosely gripped, and a fingernail uncovered, grabs and rips a woman's shoulder. And then he just keeps punching. The swiftly reaching and folding fist gnaws at the flesh of the woman.

“Oh, my God. ”

I seized the victory. I thought so, but I heard another voice. The voice that came from afar comes as fast as it can. The moment I felt it, Azin collided with something. Kuang! The sound of the cannon exploding reminds me of Azin's body in the air. The sensation of crushed whole body bones did not even scream.

"What the fuck...! ’

“I did something and I'm getting beaten up in a mess. Are you okay?”

“Luke!"

The woman turns the blood flowing from the place where she was beaten, and shouts out the man's name. Kwadang Tang! Asin drifts into the air, blurring his gaze and staring at the back of a large man.

“Asella, are you all right? ”

And I saw a little girl running out of the woods. A wizard with a cane in a big hat. The healing spell she uses heals Asella's wounds.

“I'll kill him! ”

Asella lunges at you, pushing Luke to calm him down. Asella punches Azin in the face as he staggers to get up. Azin vomited blood and lay on the ground again.

“Is that the player? ”

Phew! Phew! Luke asks as he approaches Asella, who squeezes Azin and wields her fists. Asella breathes her breath out as she continues to put her fist through Azin's face.

“Yes. He was trying to kill the NPC. And then he came after me! ”

“This is amazing. Were there any other First Users out there in the Forest of Tranquility besides us? ”

“No, wait a minute. Luke, he's... he's wearing a beginner's outfit. ”

“Huh?"

Luke looks surprised by the woman's muttering. Asella's fist stopped. Asella mutters, looking down at Azin's blood-soaked clothes.

“.. it's real. You're a rookie? ”

“Hey, that's crazy. How can a novice be in the Forest of Tranquility? We have to go through the raging forest to get here. ”

Luke shakes his head. Asella, who narrowed her eyes and looked down at Azin, took out an arrow and grabbed it.

“... what does it matter? Maybe there was a bug. Just... just kill me. ”

Asella drops an arrow on Azin's head as she speaks.

Seeing the arrow close to his face, he thinks. Luke, Asella... He clearly remembers the names of the two I heard right away. I remembered that those two bitches were the first to die in this game.

“.. see you later. ”

Immediately before being struck by an arrow, Ajin spits out his lips twisting. Asella's eyes widen at the moment, but she doesn't stop and puts an arrow in her face. Qasim! Asella mutters, one glabellar piercing and placing an arrow in her brain.

“... what did you say? ”
