Metheus was located to the southeast of Windia. It was now crowded with people. Once all the residents of Garbage Village joined, it grew at a rapid pace and numerous huts were built. This gave birth to many topics. The A.S.L community admired the sudden appearance of NPCs constructing houses at a high speed.
Today, it was full of users who wanted to move in. It was Helena who had the personality needed to control them. As Aidan’s wife, she was famous among users. She was a noble born in Garbage Village and the A.S.L community was divided on how she settled here.
“Wow, she is a real lady.” Kim Sujeong marveled at the sight.
Helena was in charge of life in the village from the moment she came. Perhaps she was used to ordering around the people from Garbage Village but her leadership was really tough. She was the queen in a historical drama who ordered the men around perfectly. She yelled, “The people over there! Don’t talk! I can’t concentrate because it is noisy. Really.”
“Hah. I-I’m sorry.”
“Cough. S-Sorry.”
The male users closed their mouths at Helena’s words. She continued writing down the personal details of the users who were moving in.
“She is charismatic in a scary manner.”
Kim Sujeong had such a dream. You know, a woman ordering around men like that...
“Now, the next person~”
“Okay, it is No. 805.”
The user completed filling out the move in details and ran toward the hut with a smile. Currently, the huts were numbered from 1~999. This meant they decided to receive only 999 users in total. The huts were so good but...
It was Helena’s decision to build the huts but Kim Sujeong was the one currently serving as village chief. It was because Father gave her the position when he left the first time. Well, perhaps there was some type of deal. He told Kim Sujeong to let Helena do whatever she wanted.
“I’m envious, envious. Haaaaah.”
Kim Sujeong stretched and returned to the clinic. It seemed that the number of patients visiting was decreasing. She was also tired because flies had been buzzing around since a while ago. The flies were truly annoying.
“Ah. Go away.”
Buzzzzzzz~
“Please go.”
Buzzzzzzz~
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ is telling you to catch the flies.]
“I know. I will catch them.”
Kim Sujeong used Divine Firefly Acupuncture. A glow appeared around her hands and the form of the firefly needles appeared. She threw it straight at the fly. It was like a flying dart.
“What? It avoided it?”
Kim Sujeong continued to throw the needles but the flies kept avoiding them. The number of needles stuck in the wall increased.
“Ah, I’m annoyed!”
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ is shaking her head.]
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says you aren’t good at throwing it.]
“No? Didn’t I throw it at the gangster last time?”
[The firefly star, ‘Camille,’ says it was because he wasn’t moving.]
“I-Is that so... Still, I’m good at it! Look look!”
However, she didn’t hit anything no matter how much she kept throwing. Now her anger was about to burst. Oh, what the hell was wrong? It was at this moment. “Guuuk!”
Suddenly, an owl appeared at the door, flapping its wings and catching a fly in its mouth. It looked like a powerful eagle or a sharp hawk. However, it was only for a moment. The owl was still young.
“Guruk~”
“Oh my, you came out of the cage again? How are you so good at escaping?”
This owl was definitely locked in the cage. She fed it the raw chicken she received last time but it kept coming out of the cage like this. Yet there were no signs of running away.
“Hey, you are a Lechuza? Is it a type of owl?”
She had heard about it from Father. It was a really precious owl so she had to take good care of it.
“Guruk. Gruruk.” The Lechuza nodded.
“You must be bored since you don’t have a name. Should I name you?”
“Guruk-?”
“Um. What about Lechu? Isn’t this good? Ah, are you male?”
“Guruuuuuk!”
The Lechuza became angry. Maybe it wasn’t male. Then it meant it was a woman...
No, it was amazing when looking at it again. How could she understand what people were saying? Kim Sujeong took raw chicken out of the inventory and threw it. The Lechuza scooped up the raw chicken with her wings.
“Hmm, I’ll consider your name again.”
“Guruk. Guruk.”
Just then, the door of the clinic opened. The man who was breathing hard was Choi Jeonghyun, Father’s second son. She had been with him all day yesterday explaining the terrain here in detail. Of course, one day here was only four hours in reality.
“Pant.Pant. Sujeong-ssi...”
“Yes...?”
“We are going to the Colosseum now. Do you want to come with us?”
* * *
At the crowd waiting area of the Colosseum...
Many people were gathered here to look at the crystal ball. They grumbled about why the match started so late. In the midst of the turmoil, Park Seongchan appeared. He sent a whisper to the group to come here.
-Muksabal:Hey, I’ve been waiting for this.I thought I was going to die of boredom.Dude, why did you call so late?You know how much we wanted to go to the Colosseum.
-Raybelt:Well, I was just following Grandfather’s will.I thought he had an idea.Yet he wasn’t thinking.Haha.I\'m sorry,Brother.
-Muksabal:No, really...Hey, dude,you should’ve talked to me.
-Raybelt:Yep.
Muksabal liked to be called Brother instead of Uncle. He said that Uncle sounded too much like an old man. The way he talked was old-fashioned but Park Seongchan still decided to call him Brother. In fact, the age difference was enough to be an uncle.
-Muksabal:Kukuk.Hey, Jeonghyun ran to the doctor just now.We will start heading toward the Colosseum.I asked if he wanted to go with her and sent him to ask her.
-Raybelt:Ahh.Are you acting as a stepping stone?What is the result?
“Hahat, he is a funny brother.”
Park Seongchan rubbed his nose. He was curious about what would happen. Ah, why wasn’t there a whisper? What? What? What happened?
-Muksabal:Hey,they came.
-Raybelt:Oh, together?
-Muksabal:Yes.But a strange owl came with them?
-Raybelt:Maybe it\'s a pet?
-Muksabal:Hmm, I guess?
“Wow, great~”
There was something to tease him about when they met later. Huhu. He was an uncle who was good to tease.
-Muksabal:In any case, we’re going.I’ll see you later.
-Raybelt:Yep.See you later,Brother.
He closed the whisper window and looked around. According to the community, there was a place in the spectator’s waiting room to borrow money. The maximum loan amount was $1 million but it was said that when paying it back, the borrower needed to pay back up to 30% more. It was a complete rip-off.
“Nevertheless, it doesn’t matter to me. Huhu.”
His grandfather had just entered the participant’s waiting room. After the five minute bloody struggle (?), his grandfather managed to win and it was also an easy victory. The man who had his hair shaved experienced a mental breakdown and was knocked out by his grandfather’s beating. Eventually, he died.
Seongchan’s grandfather was able to get a ticket on the spot. The NPC guarding the entrance looked like it was absurd.
“He is my grandfather but he’s truly great.”
Park Seongchan wondered what his grandfather was like as a child. He would have to ask when there was time later. Oh, that wasn’t important right now. Really. “I have to make a bet quickly.”
The host’s broadcast rang out at this time.
-I’m sorry, everyone!Due to the delay, we will start Group 4’s match immediately.The players of Group 4!
The faces of 20 players rose from the crystal ball. His grandfather was at the end. Seongchan could hear people buzzing.
“What? An old man?”
“He looks very weak?”
“Aren’t old people bad at playing games?”
All of them were wondering about who to bet on but none of them thought about betting on his grandfather. Well, in fact, this was natural. Union was generous to the elderly but users tended to evade the elderly for being trolls.
“Indeed, my grandfather isn’t normal.”
However, Seongchan rushed to the place to borrow money. The name was Dollar Loan Advisory Center. It might be the first loan of his life but he acted boldly. According to his grandfather, a man should do things in one blow.
“A $1 million loan.”
“Hmm. Are you certain? If you can’t pay it back then you’ll have to serve the nobles. If you refuse, you will be sent to a forced labor center. You will have to spend three months there.”
“I will be fine.”
“Umm. Please wait a moment.”
The staff member left and then placed $1 million on the table. Seongchan’s heart thumped at the sight of so much money for the first time. Still, it was enough. He didn’t think his grandfather would lose no matter what.
-Before the last Group 4 match, all spectators should pick someone to bet on!
Just then, people flocked to the respective counters to bet money. There were windows from 1~20 and his grandfather was the last one, number 20. Park Seongchan walked toward the place where no one was lining up. He had $1 million and he bet it all. “All in.”
* * *
-Now, last’s start the last Group 4 match!The rule is a survival match!Stay alive.Those who go outside the stage will be eliminated.Good luck!
“Hmm.”
Park Muyeol touched his beard. He didn’t like being bet on but it was already over. How many people had bet on him? There was a loud trumpet sound to signal the start of the match.
“Huhu. We have three people in our group. We’re coming, old man!”
Three ugly guys rushed in from the side. Perhaps they wanted to kill him first because he was old. Park Muyeol held a wooden sword with flowers covering it.
‘First, let’s relax my body.’
He ran straight toward them. He didn’t even use Stick\'s Protection. It was just light-hearted exercise. Sometimes, he just had to swing it in extreme situations. Haha. Oh, he had to take this out. Just in case. The Magic Power Hair-Clipper in his hands cried out.
“What? That combination?”
“A wooden sword and a hair-clipper??”
“Did you decide to die? Haha!”
Thus, they clashed. Park Muyeol dodged their attacks with a smile. He blocked the attacks with a wooden sword while shaving at their hair with the Magic Power Hair-Clipper.
“W-What is this crazy thing?!”
“Dammit!”
“What is this?! Aaaack! My sideburns!”
There seemed to be no need to wield the sword. Their attacks were full of gaps. Park Muyeol continued to wave the hair-clipper in the gaps. They suddenly became bald, experienced the ‘eyes shaking’ abnormal state, and had mentally collapsed. Park Muyeol pushed their asses. The three people were tearfully pushed outside.
“......”
“......”
“......”
There was complete silence. No one could speak and no one moved.
Park Muyeol walked silently toward the center of the stage. Only quiet footsteps quietly rang through the stadium as Park Muyeol stopped in the center with a bouquet of flowers... No, he pulled out his wooden sword.
“Bring it on, you trash.”
[The constellation skill ‘Stick\'s Protection’ has been used.]
“I’ll teach you personally.”
Cracks started to form on the ground where Park Muyeol stood.
