LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 64
Since the birth of the RPG genre in the gaming world, content such as customization and costumes has never once faded from popularity.
So-called “look-enthusiasm” has always been a top-notch content.
In fact, Inbl is a full dive VR MMORPG where players essentially become their characters.
In this game, the character is almost synonymous with oneself.
I’ve been wearing a costume I randomly acquired for long-term investment, but there are many who have decked themselves out in all sorts of ways in Inbl.
Ultimately, the character’s appearance doesn’t matter that much.
Thus, what we should focus on is neither the “Magical Girl” nor the act of “Terrorism.”
What mattered was that it was happening in the village.
The village is supposed to be a safe zone protected by the system.
“Ahahaha! Die, Summer Salt Kick!”
“Th-those crazy girls!”
“Take this, Spinning Heel Kick!”
As the magical staff shone, fire magic poured out.
When the girl yelled out completely unrelated kick names, user screams and random curses echoed.
Flames blooming like flowers left yet another pile of ashes.
‘That player sure is having fun.’
A Fighter rushing in from the front is swept away by the flames.
The Mage defeated in the firepower battle turned to bone dust, and the Archer taking aim from hiding was killed by the “Tracker’s” dagger.
In short, that crazy girl was not alone.
A Tracker patrolling the back alley.
Under the Magical Girl’s feet, even a Berserker was hiding.
At first glance, she seemed just like a crazy girl, but her actions were quite cunning.
It seemed PVP was basic level stuff. Her two eyes didn’t forget to check for enemies around.
Keeping a distance to receive help from teammates at any time was a mark of sensibility.
‘By the way, hasn’t it been over five minutes? Really no response at all?’
The chaos that once started showed no signs of stopping.
A Rogue trying to oppose the Terrorist.
A Warrior striking the Rogue from behind to suck up gold.
A Ranger starting to loot NPCs.
Among them, the Ranger was noteworthy.
Not long after the Ranger started looting, a Wyvern Knight NPC appeared.
With a booming shout, the chaos across the village came to a stop.
“This is the land managed by Count Rachikal. How dare you disturb the peace!”
Sure enough, they wouldn’t just sit and watch while the village turned into a wreck.
The Wyvern Knight is a law enforcement NPC far superior to the regular guards of this continent.
The knight, having drawn all eyes, valiantly slew the looters.
Then, the next move was clear.
The Magical Girl coolly assessed the situation.
In a panicked voice came an accurate and intuitive order.
“Hey! Shit! We need to run!”
The first thing spilled out was a spell that induced an explosion of smoke.
A Berserker, once hidden, revealed his massive body.
Was his role to stall from the beginning? The Berserker stood valiantly, acting as the wall for the Magical Girl.
Now, the Wyvern Knight’s spear would be directed at the Berserker.
The moment everyone believed that, the Wyvern’s wings flapped violently.
And then, as if nothing happened, it returned to the castle.
Leaving behind the burning village and the Terrorist Magical Girl.
“……?”
Everyone in the city stared blankly at the sky.
The blue sky shone brightly, and the knight never looked back.
Soon, everyone reached the same conclusion.
After a major patch.
It was no longer surprising for a deadly bug to arise.
“It’s plunder! Kill the women and rape the men!”
“I found a furry male!”
“Kill him!”
“No, don’t kill him! I’ll take care of it right away!”
“?”
I grabbed a dagger too.

Among pro gamers, there aren’t few players who dislike chaotic battles.
Their stage is one where participants are fairly numbered.
When things spiral into chaos, it means all the carefully built tactics have gone to waste.
Particularly, strategist-type players loathed fighting filled with variables.
Conversely, PVP users like me, who focus on the field, prefer chaos.
Forget about complex strategies; rely solely on physical skills and animal instincts for battle!
It’s just about slaughtering visible enemies—purely exhilarating combat in the field.
An arrow without sight grazed past my head.
Fragmented ice shards couldn’t penetrate my outer coat and thud-thud-thud harmlessly fell.
If you receive a gift, it’s only right to return the favor.
With a generous heart, I hit the belly of the ice mage with my dagger.
I had intended to rush out and choke the life out of him, but I came face to face with an Assassin right next to me.
A prey that wouldn’t take long to devour.
Busy path, but a little snack shouldn’t be a problem.
“Is that, could it be, Gawol…?”
With no further discussion, I thrust in my dagger. The opponent bravely counter-attacked.
I dodged to the side and wedged their arm in between my side.
With that, tripping their legs and pushing their head down—bang, their face meets the ground.
Before resistance began, I stabbed the opponent’s temple multiple times.
Thump. Thump. As disturbing sounds echoed, the Assassin raised their thumb.
“You’re really good at this…”
“Oh?”
Could they perhaps be a fan?
What a shame. If they’d said so earlier, I wouldn’t have killed them.
Having already stabbed, there was nothing I could do, so I twisted the blade and finished them off.
Let’s think positively.
If you consider it a fan meeting in my way, it’s not bad, right?
[Adventurer KursaGawolWillBecome has been forcibly dealt with.]
[You have obtained 476,608 Gold by stealing the opponent’s money.]
In any case, once you target someone, you must finish them.
As the second fan dropped dead, I moved through shadows toward the previously stabbed Mage.
Thinking I had given up the chase, I caught the ice mage off guard.
Slashing at Achilles’ heel, both rear knees.
Finally, slashing the latissimus dorsi tendon rendered the enemy powerless.
The reason for stabbing the back of the neck was to prevent spell casting.
“Ugh, cough…”
“It’s your fault I missed. Damn, where am I?”
Originally, my target was the initial Magical Girl.
But being distracted elsewhere caused the pursuit to break off.
Scratching the ice mage’s neck with a dagger, I surveyed the surroundings.
Several arrows flew towards me. I twisted the knife inside their throat, cutting their neck, and blocked with the corpse as a shield.
To the cocky archer who shot me, I threw a rope dagger.
My throwing skills could match those of top-tier assassins like Ripper.
The straight line of the blade drew blood, and the archer hurriedly attempted to pull it out.
Not today.
[Active: Snake’s Fang]
[For 10 seconds, thrown weapons will not leave the opponent’s body.]
Immediately pulling the rope, I closed the distance.
The archer, having given up fleeing, shot a few arrows, but if they couldn’t even block this much, they had no right to call themselves an assassin.
With wrist sensations not weighing heavy, I could easily guess the outcome.
Consciously attempting to block their neck.
If both hands go up, how do they plan on blocking the middle and lower parts?
I blocked the arm trying to tear down to the side.
Pushing them back to the wall, I aimed a knee strike at their abdomen.
Due to the impact, even their upper guard faltered, and I landed a knee strike to the face as well.
It hit solidly.
The facial danger triangle crumbled, spraying bright red blood.
After dispatching the challenger, I looked for more prey.
[You receive the effect of ‘Blessing of the Ashen Moon.’]
[For a maximum of 10 seconds, you meld into the shadows within 10m of the player and become invisible…]
[Remaining Time: 2.01 sec]
“How many was it again?”
Having missed the Magical Girl, I killed the nearest enemies that came my way.
It wasn’t very difficult. The true value of an assassin lies in surprise, and it’s impossible to be aware of an unseen assassin during chaos.
Sometimes due to spec difference, the kill count rose quickly.
Little by little, there were no visible users around.
As my invisibility faded, I was sipping a potion when I sensed a presence below.
Got it.
I’ll just drink this, so wait a moment.
I’ll be right there.
Just as I brought the potion bottle to my lips, I locked eyes with the Magical Girl coming out of a shabby building.
“Uh.”
“Oh.”
As the starlight of the magical staff sparkled for a moment.
The pink-haired girl, seemingly losing her fighting spirit, pointed her staff downwards.
With a hesitant voice, she asked a question.
“Umm… are you perhaps Gawol?”
“That’s me.”
“Could you just let me go?”
“Hmmm.”

“What the hell, this guy. Why’s his nickname like that?”
