That guy is This guy Chapter 42

42.

[Guild] Let’s go all in: Ah ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Let’s go all in: something fun is planned for Signi hahaha

[Guild] I’m sleepy: did you start at the palace?

[Guild] Let’s go all in: Yes ㅋㅋㅋ 1 minute and 32 seconds left

[Guild] I’m sleepy: okyo

[Guild] TheHunter: If you’re going to do it, you should have set up decent guys as bodyguards

[Guild] TheHunter: ㅇㅈ?

[Guild] Staric: ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Staric: Agreed

Currently, Let’s go all in was hiding in the corner at 12 o’clock in the east and casting his ultimate skill. He asked The Hunter and Staric to stay by Let’s go all in’s side just in case, to be safe.

It was one of the possible locations for the Fever Guild Mage, and it was definitely the best place to do something secretly.

‘The plan itself is useful.’

Elemental Mage’s ultimate skill was so powerful that it was difficult to use properly.

That’s why the skill doesn’t have much usage in the selection matches that are mostly dog fights, but in the current situation, it was worth a try.

The reason why he didn’t use the elemental mage’s ultimate ability while defending the central city of Veritas in the preliminary round was because there weren’t that many users gathering at the front gate.

The west gate was originally the farthest from the center and had a complicated topography, so it did not receive much attention. Therefore, the number of enemies gathering in front of the west gate were very small, compared to other places, and strong jobs such as Elemental Mage were placed at other important gates.

However, if there were more than 40 people gathered at the front gate like this time, Elemental Mage’s ultimate skill was perfect. Of course, it takes more than 2 minutes just to cast, so if it fails, the penalty won’t be small... but now that we’re in an advantageous situation, the penalty didn’t matter much.

[Guild] I’m sleepy: I’ll try not to come close as much as possible

[Guild] I’m sleepy: but there might be some guys sneaking in though

[Guild] I’m sleepy: If you get attacked, please tell me.

[Guild] I’m sleepy: O-Ring-nim, please protect Let’s go all in as much as possible

[Guild] Staric: Don’t worry ㄴㄴ

[Guild] TheHunter: To be honest, I’m confident I can beat all the bad guys ㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Staric: For reals ㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Staric: Fever kids wouldn’t even think about playing the game after this;

[Guild] Mocha Bread: You’re right ㅇ.ㅇㅋㅋ

[Guild] Mocha Bread: But is our Gilma Sleepy?

[Guild] Mocha Bread: Is the leader status just a joke?

[Guild] Drink some water: That’s a good idea..^^

[Guild] Park Seung-jin 99: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Let’s do it: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[Guild] Haerun: I agree..^^

After confirming that everything was ready, I headed towards the west gate with Yoo Chae, watching the speed of the gauge significantly go slower than before.

When Yoo Chae and I came back and stood in the lead, a large number of guild members from the opposite side began to come in droves. I smiled as I turned on the video recording program I used the other day.

‘Since I’ve come up with such a useful plan, I should properly do this.’

It was just funny that Significant and other Fever guild members came running excitedly without thinking that we would follow the plan they were trying to do earlier.

I stood side by side with Yoo Chae and watched leisurely, and when I got closer to the members of the Fever Guild, I started chatting right away.

[Guild] I’m sleepy: now

[Guild] Let’s go all in: The Meteor is done..

As soon as Let’s go all in said the same thing he had said in the arena, the ground shook as dark clouds quickly gathered in the sky with a roar and a roar. Hearing that, Significant hesitated and hurriedly changed direction, but it was already too late.

A huge meteorite split through the dark clouds and fell at a tremendous speed. Like Significant, the members of the Fever Guild who noticed Meteor belatedly scattered and ran away, but it was impossible to escape outside the range.

Kwaaang!

The meteorite hit the ground and the screen shook vigorously. The fire spread rapidly, and the members of the Fever Guild collapsed.

Users who managed to avoid the meteorite also died one after another from dot damage due to poor physical strength. All those scenes were captured vividly in a pre-prepared recording program.

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

The kill log went up endlessly and the stagnant gauge quickly filled up to 99%.

“Ugh, crazy. It’s really strong.”

“I feel refreshed.”

Water and Haerun, who watched Meteor fall together, each commented their appreciation. The scene where 40 crowded characters were swept away at once was definitely a sight to behold.

“Uh? Isn’t there a leftover?”

At that time, one of the dead users staggered to his feet. He was considerably dressed in pure white from head to toe.

It seemed that he managed to hold on with Warlord’s evasion skill and defense items, but he still only had 10% of his health left. I approached him holding the staff I had got back from Melody Chord earlier.

[All] I’m sleepy: whoa

[All] I’m sleepy: You avoided this?

When I was deprived of my staff, I chatted with Significant, and Significant, whose physical strength continued to decrease due to dot damage, struck back without losing.

[All] Significant: That’s one heck of a ㅅ1ck foot guy ㅋㅋㅋ

[All] I’m sleepy: why are you angry ㅋㅋ

[All] I’m sleepy: it’s just a game

[All] I’m sleepy: You’re too immersed..

I deliberately cast the weakest skill. The jewel embedded in the staff glowed blue.

[All] I’m sleepy: Ah

[All] I’m sleepy: the plan’s cool

[All] I’m sleepy: You planned it well

After that, I threw a skill at Significant.

Pajik!

A number of characters along with Significant who were directly hit by the attack flew backwards and fell, dying helplessly.

<System> Early Evening guild has earned 10 points!

<System> All progress points have been filled!

<System> Preliminary Round has ended!

<System> We have defended the city from the Fever Guild!

As soon as Significant died, the gauge was completely filled and the Preliminary Round came to an end.

It was my perfect victory– getting my staff back and taking revenge.

[Melody Code: what is that]

[Melody Code: Then it was yours??]

[I’m sleepy: ㅇ]

[Melody code: Fuck no, wait a minute]

Having successfully finished the Selection match against Fever, I had a proper conversation with Melody Chord. When I explained that the owner of the original staff was me, Melody Chord said in a tone that she found this absurd.

[Melody Chord: What the fuck?]

[Melody Code: Could it be the reason you killed me was for the staff all along?]

[I’m sleepy: ㅇ]

[Melody code: ㅋㅋㅋ]

[Melody Code: That’s so shitty, dude ㅎㅎ]

[I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋㅋ]

Melody Chord’s reaction was understandable. Because Melody Chord was just a victim who was unknowingly caught up in this incident.

But that didn’t mean I didn’t notice. The only person that should be blamed was the member of the Fever Guild who killed me for ignoring his offer to join the guild and took away my staff.

Above all, it was a mutually beneficial relationship as I got back the staff which wasn’t even wanted by Melody Chord in the first place.

[I’m sleepy: You should have joined a good guild]

[Melody Chord: ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[Melody Chord: It’s true, but it’s bad luck.. ]

[Melody Chord: Honestly, the guild where you are in]

[Melody Chord: Isn’t that normal?]

[I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[I’m sleepy: at least here]

[I’m sleepy: there are no sluts who are obsessed with women]

[Melody Chord: oh..]

[Melody Chord: That’s true, too]

[Melody Chord: awesome]

[I’m sleepy: And about you]

[I’m sleepy: Will you stay there?]

[Melody Chord: no]

[Melody Chord: I will leave as soon as the preliminary round is over]

[I’m sleepy: ㅋㅋ]

[I’m sleepy: You’re wise]

Melody Chord and I decided not to delete each other in our friend’s list and left it alone.

Anyway, thanks to the Melody Chord, I got my staff back easily, and I was able to learn about the plans of the Fever Guild.

[Melody Chord: Nim]

[Melody Chord: You should be careful too?]

[I’m sleepy: ?]

[Melody Chord: Looking at Guild chat here]

[Melody Chord: I think you’re trying to pick a fight with me for taking your staff?]

[I’m sleepy: what’s the point of fighting?]

[Melody Chord: That’s what I was talking about.]

[Melody Chord: I don’t know what to do...]

[Melody Chord: Ask for the staff, like that]

[Melody Chord: you kept killing because you wanted it to be dropped?]

[I’m sleepy: ㅇ]

[Melody Chord: I heard about this from the Guild chat?]

Aha. That means even Fever found out that I kept killing Melody Chord on purpose to get my staff back.

‘Well, if it’s something like that, it won’t be a big problem.’

It wasn’t that I didn’t know what was going to happen and I didn’t do it blindly.

Fever member, These guys are really behaving exactly as I expected. It was getting a bit boring now.

I touched my lips and sorted out my thoughts before typing on the keyboard without hesitation.

[I’m sleepy: I know what you mean]

[I’m sleepy: but you can leave it alone]
