Blade Online

Warrior needle.

Though wearing white clothes, unlike when I saw them before, I knew as soon as I saw my face.

All back with slightly dripping forehead. A thin chin mustache growing.

somewhat vain eyes and a grin just a form that feels empty.

That's the creepy guy I saw during "Mole Beating" I used to go to level with.

Behind the warrior needle was an equally white ponytail woman holding back. He's busy moving his fingers in the air looking at us. A warrior needle buddy?

The players who arrived listened to the words of the warrior needle and set themselves up with a rude look on their face. Still not storming, are you wary of the warrior needle that is the man of the operation, or are you barely pressured by the 'incomprehensibility' he is brewing?

"Is Temehe a warrior needle?"

Among the players, Guruara leaves one step ahead. With his weapon in his hand, he floats a sharp beastly eyed eye, alerting himself to the most warrior needle.

"I suppose you're right. I'm the warrior needle."

The warrior needle does not change any facial expression even if it receives the glare of Guruala, and moves his gaze sideways to see how the player as a whole is doing. So for a moment, my gaze matches mine, and the warrior needle gives me the expression "oops". The warrior needle once again turns his gaze to Guruara after grinning like it included.

"What brings you here today?"

"Ah?"

The players bother with the abrupt question of the warrior needle. So the lion calmed everyone down, and came out to the neighbour of Guruala.

"We have come here to return from this world to the original world."

"Hmm. Get out of this world, huh? Is that necessary?"

"... what are you talking about?"

The words of the warrior's needle narrow his eyes.

"You've come this far today with 'Escape' as your goal. He has defeated several monsters and broken through many areas. It would have been hard, it would have been hard. But this is what you fights for. [M]" Fun "and. This world is more full of excitement than an irreplaceable boring reality. What you're doing now is nothing more than abandoning that thrilling, boring world. I don't know, I can still make it. If this is where you put your swords down, let's get this thing out of the water today. And let's allow ourselves to return to our lives until yesterday. Let's also take down the monsters that are raiding the city. Then, I've only said there's only 30 areas so far, but we'll be releasing new ones again tomorrow. There are lots of new monsters, items, and quests. Let's go back to a good life!"

The warrior needle never catches the word, but speaks as it flows. The players who heard that unspoiled speech shut up for a moment as if they could not believe it, screaming like a fiery fire at the next moment.

"I'm not kidding!" "What a fun life! Don't take it personally!" "You piece of shit! Fuck you!"

Back to the curse, the warrior needle slashed him silently. The warrior needle screams like a "whoops" and jumps back in the Steps. There he tries to chase, and the other players try to follow.

"Then let's change the question"

The warrior needle stood his finger as he said so. The players are alert to the movement of the warrior needle and stop the movement.

"You came all the way to my sight today because there was a traitor among us. The traitor saw our gap and talked to you. The traitor is a man named Urabe, and he's my friend. Isn't that why he said this to push your back?" Dead players in this world are still alive, "he said."

"What do you mean?"

"Ha ha, did you still say that? No, what. I have one unfortunate news for you."

…………

"Dead player alive?"

The warrior needle whispers with his raised finger pointed at us.

"No, no, because he's already dead"

Once again, the players run upset by the words of the warrior needle. The people I thought I could help, they're already dead.

"Please don't deal with me! This is just what this man is saying to upset us!"

That's what the Grualas scream about.

I also think this is a warrior needle trap.

But even though I know that, as soon as I thought I couldn't help Lynn, my legs shudder. My breath gets rough.

"Oh, finally, the traitor who led you, Urabe, because I just killed you"

The players are even more confused by what the warrior needle tells them.

Several players yell "It's a lie!" but the warrior needle deepens his grin when he hears it.

Then he turned his sight on me.

"Come on, say it's true. Well, some of them are left for experiments, but they're mostly dead by now. Too bad. Hey, it's sad. Hey, I'm shocked. Ha ha, but this is reality!! Hey! That's Akatsuki right there! Long time no see! Speaking of which, I don't know if it's Lynn or Run to your friend, but there was a girl by that name! Ha-ha-ha! What happened to her? Oh, yeah, he was already dead! Too bad! I can't help you!"

The moment I heard the words of the warrior needle, my head turned white as if it had boiled, and I shouted and stuck into the warrior needle. A bunch of players, just like me, head for the warrior needle. Run at the beginning of it.

I felt like someone screamed my name, but I didn't care.

It's just that I just couldn't help but hate and hate the man in front of me.

I go in between warrior needles and wave a machete. The blade is sucked into the neck of the warrior needle by the flashing momentum. I killed him, so sure he was fat.

But the moment the blade touched the neck of the warrior needle, a severe impact was transmitted to his hand, as if he had slashed a steel wall. Bassi, and the machete bounces back, and I'm blown backwards. Without understanding what happened, I manage to regain my posture and land in the air. I glide for a while rubbing my shoes over the ground and finally kill the momentum.

When I returned my gaze to the warrior needle, I noticed a translucent tab floating in my sight. I accidentally leak my voice.

"Duel, you say?"

Looking around, there was a translucent wall covering around me and the warrior needle. The other players can't get close to us because they're blocked by the wall. He's banging on the wall with a weapon, but indestructible letters are emerging.

"Yes, you're right. It's a duel, Akatsuki. Why don't you and I have a one-on-one death match?"

Don't be ridiculous! I don't remember approving a duel! "

"Unfortunately, I don't need your approval. Some of the permissions locked by Urabe's guys have already been released. You can do this."

I hear other players screaming from outside the wall. I can also hear you pounding your weapon. But once the duel begins, they can't interfere with us until the duel is over.

"Why should I fight you?"

"Because if we take you down, we can control you."

"There are a lot of players on this scene who are stronger than me. I can't take control of Ala where I've been defeated."

"Oh, no, no. It's not a matter of strength. Problem is, you own Administrator Permissions."

"Kanri... Authority?"

I overhear unfamiliar words.

The warrior needle, you're trying to tell me I have admin authority?

"Yes, admin permissions. You don't realize that authority exists, and you can't use it."

"Why would I have something like that!"

"Urabe, who brought you here, was copying and transferring some of his authority to you. Look, you were definitely dropped in some neighborhood with a bug once, right? It was then."

Dropped in a bug -.

As soon as the game started, I was dropped by Bloody Forest.

I thought that was something that was accidentally dropped because of the bug.

But the truth is, was a man named Urabe able to do what he intended to do to transfer authority to me?

But why me?

"The reason I transferred it to you is probably because you had the highest adaptive value?"

"Adapted value…"

"It's a number of how much you can benefit from player assistance."

In the virtual reality world, player-assisted functionality is attached to increase player motor nerves and response speed. That should have been a remedy for players who don't like to exercise, or for players who are physically challenged to enjoy the game for a variety of reasons. But there is also a personal difference in the impact of that assist, apparently. I don't know why because I don't know that much about player assistance.

"So you're saying I'm the most player-assisted person in the game?"

"That's right. Would you have had the skills of a system called Overlay? That's a skill that Urabe created in a playful way, but the power changes depending on the height of the adaptive value. The highest indication is certainly black, and I wonder if the next one was silver. Anyway, Urabe had the highest adaptive value, and I transferred the admin privileges to you."

…………

The power of Overlay varies from player to player. That power is determined randomly, was the story, but was the power determined by the benefit of player assistance?

With the same silver overlay as me, the indication value is quite high.

"Well, I don't care about that. Anyway, I'll have your admin privileges returned. That doesn't make any sense if you have it."

…… If I die here, the admin authority will disappear, and we players won't be able to help. "

"That's right. Our actions are restricted because of your authority. [M] If we don't, we can move you out of here in an instant, and we can kill you all."

"Well, what happens if I kill you"

The warrior needle shut up a little on the words, then said with a fierce grin on his mouth.

"I don't know. If you can do it, try it."
