"Ah! It looks like... you are my first prey? But you look so ordinary."
A thin man holding two daggers in his hands looked towards him with interest.
He was wearing a shirt, with a strange symbol on it that caught Hikaru's attention.
[Master…] Rika's voice suddenly rang out: [That symbol comes from a Player's guild in another world.]
"Hmm? Why are there players from another world here?"
[Perhaps… somehow, players from other worlds snuck inside this event.]
[Actually, this is not the first time this has happened. Events held in other worlds also encounter similar situations.]
[High-level players have found a loophole that allows them to access events in other worlds.]
[If they participate, they can gain resources from new players who are weaker than them.]
Hikaru nodded, it seemed... This event was not as simple as he thought.
The young man shouted: "Boy... take everything out of the space bag."
Hikaru frowned when he heard that. He suddenly thought of something.
"Rika, it seems like even if the players from the other world kill me, they won't be able to take all of my items, right?"
[That's right. Normally, if players in the same world kill each other, the dead person will leave behind a soul crystal. That soul crystal contains all the items that the dead player owned.]
[However, if they are killed by a player from another world, the soul crystals will not appear on the deceased.]
Hearing that, Hikaru suddenly had an extremely interesting thought in his mind.
He pretended to be scared and said: "Ah! You… who are you?"
"Hahaha… kid, you don't need to know much. Just give me everything you have in your space bag, and I'll let you live."
"If not… hehehe…" The skinny young man said as he licked the blade.
Hikaru saw this and didn't know what to say. It seemed that the words the skinny young man had just said, along with his actions, reminded Hikaru of villains in novels.
In fact, those villains were very minor, seemingly only existing for a few paragraphs or a chapter.
They usually end up killed by the main character.
Even though Hikaru admitted that he was not the main character, he did not think that one day he would encounter this type of situation.
'What the hell is going on? In this day and age, there are still people who lick knife blades to look cool.'
'I hope he doesn't break his tongue before I kill him.'
Hikaru suddenly forgot what he needed to say because of the young man's foolish actions and words.
"Oy! Did you hear what I said? If you don't listen I will cut off one of your hands first. Can you hear me clearly… Heh?!"
The young man who was speaking was suddenly startled because he saw his left arm suddenly fall on the ground.
"What the hell?! AA!!!" Thrt young man shouted but suddenly he couldn't continue speaking.
His body seemed to be frozen, and he was unable to move. He then rolled his eyes at the young man in front of him.
Hikaru approached the young man, smiled and said: "I will ask you some questions you will answer. If your answer makes me feel unsatisfied then… Do you understand?"
The young man nodded continuously.
"First question, what world do you come from?"
"Um um…."
"Ah! I forgot." Hikaru released the confinement magic around his body.
The young man did not answer but laughed fiercely: "You bastard! If you kill me, my comrades will find you, and they will tear you into a million pieces."
"You just…"
BAM!
Hikaru swung his leg and kicked the young man in the face, but the kick was strong enough to kill him.
However, that kick caused all the teeth in his mouth to fall out, and blood flowed from his nose and mouth like a stream.
"Wrong! You're saying things I don't want to hear." Hikaru calmly said.
"AA!! Bastard! I will kill you, I will…"
Hikaru sighed, suddenly, Tsuraguki spoke: "Master, let me help you."
He nodded, summoning Tsuraguki from the summoning space. Even though this would reduce the number of times Tsuraguki would be able to return to the summoning space, Hikaru didn't care.
With the power of Tsuraguki and him, whether there was a summoning space or not was not worth worrying about for Hikaru.
Tsuraguki appeared next to Hikaru. However, she wore heavy armor like a berserker.
Anyone who saw her would feel extremely pressured, like they were facing an extremely powerful monster.
Tsuraguki came before the young man…
"You… I… I warn you… if you dare… AAA!!"
The scene that followed was not at all suitable for children to watch. Tsuraguki repeatedly broke the young man's arms and legs, she used her fists to help the young man realize that sometimes death was better than living.
However, things didn't stop there. After Tsuraguki finished 'playing' with him, she used magic to heal the young man.
After the young man recovered, Tsuraguki continued to beat him. But this time Tsuraguki made sure that the young man could still speak.
After all, Tsuraguki's healing magic could only be used once on a person, as it could not be used a second time on the same person.
"I… I said… I will tell you whatever you want to know…" That young man shouted, his voice filled with despair.
"Good!" Hikaru smiled, he didn't think that Tsuraguki's method was so effective. It seems... bringing her was the right choice.
"First question, what world do you come from?"
"I… I come from Grim World."
"Oh! Why did you come to this place?"
"I… I don't know. The Guild Master just told me that I would be participating in an event in another world. If I participate in that event… I… I can kill weak players to get more resources."
Hearing that, Hikaru nodded. The young man's answer was no different from Hikaru's guess.
"obviously… I didn't know how to get here. At that time… I only saw a teleportation magic on the ground, and after stepping inside, I immediately appeared here."
Hikaru frowned and said: "Hmmm." If you have a way to get here, then you also have a way to return, right?"
The young man nodded: "That's right..." Suddenly, without speaking, he glanced at Tsuraguki, his body trembling violently.
"You can't tell us?"
"That's right." That young man immediately explained: "I... I have a kind of magic implanted in my body. If I say it, I will die immediately."
"Really? So… how many of you are there?"
"I don't know, but at least more than 50 people."
"Who has the highest level?"
"It's Syka, he's Vice Guild Master number 3, his level is probably over 90."
"Is there anyone else like him?"
"I… I don't know. I'm just a new member, there are many things I don't know."
Suddenly, Tsuraguki swung her leg and hit the young man's right arm.
BAM!
This kick was so powerful that it caused the young man's hand to explode into countless pieces of flesh, his bone, blood and other pieces of his arm flew everywhere in the air and then fell on the ground.
"AAA!!!" The young man screamed miserably.
"Master, he just used magic to call for reinforcements."
Hearing Tsuraguki's words, Hikaru frowned: "It's okay, I want to see how strong these players are."
…
In another place, a group of people had just gathered. They were led by a man dressed in simple clothes.
On the side of his pants was a Katana that emitted a strange purple aura.
"Is everyone gathered?"
"Master Syka, everyone is gathered, however… one person is missing."
Syka frowned: "Who is it?"
"It's a new member, as soon as he arrived here he disappeared. There are signs that he used teleportation magic."
Syka's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, his eyes filled with extremely terrifying murderous intent: "That idiot..."
"Master syka…" Suddenly, another person spoke: "There is a message requesting reinforcements."
"Coming from that idiot?" Syka asked.
The person nodded slightly, as he looked worriedly at Syka.
Syka didn't say anything, he just rubbed his chin and thought: "Strange, that idiot's level is 60, even if he is surrounded by 10 players in this world, he cannot fail."
"Maybe…" Another person spoke up: "Maybe he met a player from another guild like us."
"It can't be ." Syka shook his head: "Each guild manages a separate area. This was decided during the meeting between the guilds."
Syka thought for a long time, and finally, he made a decision: "Let's go."
"Are we going to rescue that person?"
"No!" Syka shook his head: "We need to go there to see what the situation is like. If that idiot dies, it's even better, then we have one less idiot."
…
Syka led more than 40 people to travel more than 40 kilometers, to the location where the young man sent out a signal requesting reinforcements.
"This place…" Syka came to this place and immediately felt a little curious: "I didn't think there was such a developed forest in this world."
"Master Syka, what do you mean…"
Syka looked around and said: "Look around... if this forest is growing so strongly, it means there is a huge mineral mine in this place."
"There are definitely a few monsters that have high value, as long as we catch them, we can sell them at a high price."
"Alright. Find that idiot's location."
"Master, that person's location is 40 kilometers north-east of us." Another person spoke up.
Syka heard that and looked towards the North-East direction. Then, he raised his hand and a magic circle appeared.
That magic circle emitted a blinding white light, but that light only lasted for 5 seconds and then disappeared.
Syka frowned: "It's strange, I can only feel the existence of one person, there are no other people around."
Syka thought for a long time, then ordered: "Team 1, prepare a magic attack."
"Team 2, defense."
"Team 3, prepare teleportation magic."
"Everyone, move slowly, pay attention to your surroundings, understand?"
"Understood!" The others said in unison.
At this time, one person felt confused and asked Syka: "Master, why are we so careful? Here, other than the new players in Misty World, we are the strongest, we don't need to be this careful."
"No…" Syka shook her head: "I have a feeling that things are not simple."
