The Masked Killer Pt.2

It Hans0 panted heavily as his vision got dizzy due to lack of mana. "I guess I am gonna die here" He faintly smiled. The other players looked at Byung with envy as they saw him slowly walk towards Hans0.

"Let's see who's behind this mask" Byung lifted his arms advancing towards the mask.

Hans looked at Byung. 'One day I am going to kill you.'

'Use command! /suicide' Hans thought.

[Are you sure?]

[You will lose all your items]

'Yes'

[You will die in 5 seconds]

Hans lifted the blade and one last time launched an attack towards Byung but before the blade could reach Byung.

[You have died]

Hans turned into light particles as he died, the items he held all fell on the floor. As he picked up the items he noticed the most of the items he held were level 30+ useable. Then why was the newbie holding these items? He also noticed a book. It was a class change book, Hans has used before. 'Eight Breadth Swordsmanship'

It was 3rd class items, but it was no use to Byung as he had an even better class change book in his possession.

Byung's current class 'Flame Tormentor' is a 'First Class' Class. Byung thought of keeping the item.

"Hey, no fair. He suicided. So, I won't consider a kill" A player shouted.

"Yeh. Me too" The other players shouted. And what's the reason for these protests, that they could still kill Hans and get the glory. As many people also on the internet weren't happy about Hans' suicide and wanted to see a proper kill.

But Byung was satisfied as he started to move to the third area of Cerulean Forest, while the other players thought of coming back in two days to challenge Hans again. Cerulean Forest was the only started Yellow Zone in the nearby towns.

****

In some cave in a desert-type region. An entity looked at Hans0 and talking to his subordinate, "That's disappointing me. He should have fought till the end I would have given him my powers"

"It's true. But his emotions felt like that he will be striving for a second chance"

"Yes. then he lost the battle, he wants to win the war. I like that attitude"

"Yes sire"

****

Hans opened his eyes, as he looked at the white ceiling of his house, the fan rotated providing him cold air. Hans kept the Console down as he clenched his fist, in anger, 'I will have my revenge'

Hans went to the study table and opened his laptop, he searched 'Cerulean Forest Fight'

The first link itself was his fight. Hans clicked at it and looked at the footage, anger boiling up in him. He also looked at the comments.

'Weakling. Used the suicide command instead of admitting defeat'

'Ikr. I want some player to kill him for real'

'Those players I heard will attack him once he respawns, but I am not sure about Byung-Hoon'

Hans raised an eyebrow, as he opened another tab and searched Byung Hoon. The first link was again the fight between them. He clicked the second link. He was the little brother to the 10 leaders of the Hoon Clan which was a part of the Hoon Group of Industries so he had a lot of money. 'That explains that armor and orb. Freaking golden spoon holder'

"Arvind" Hans heard a shout, it was his real name. "Yeah. Mom?" He shouted back.

"If you are back from that stupid game. Can you please throw away the trash?"

"Huh. But mom..." Ravine felt lazy he didn't want to go out.

"I am making chicken" Arvind immediately rushed downstairs he grabbed the bag and throw it in the dustbin outside their house.

He came back as he saw his mom in the kitchen preparing rice and chicken curry.

"How much more?" Ravine drooled.

"10 minutes more. Why don't you take a bath till then?"

"Ok."

As Arvind was under the shower he thought of ways to defeat the players. He realized that he needed more skills that require less mana. 'Dragon Claw' consumed 75 mana. Almost 50℅ his current mana capacity. That's when he realized he needed an item with an already embedded skill.

Hans came out of the bath as his father sitting on the dining table. "Your back pops"

"Yeh. Did you study today?" Hans laughed it off. His father left out a sigh. "Sit let's have dinner. "

After eating Hans looked at the items in the marketplace on the internet. He only found one item in his budget, 'Bear Grappler' It was a knuckle type of weapon with the skill 'Paw Push'. Hans decided to buy it. But now he was busy watching anime. He also read some manga.

The next day he logged back into the game, he had no weapons or items all he had was 100k silver. Hans went to the nearby marketplace, which was surrounded by thousands of people.

A notification window popped. He reached 'Bear Grapler' He bought a 'Good' quality nonenchanted one. He also bought a normal chest plate and shoes. Hans still had 70k left. So he decided to buy another weapon he had in mind. 'Ice Mage Book'

The book was used by newbies to increase the proficiency of magic spells. The Novice Ice Magic Book had two skills. It was only 5k so Hans bought the book, he also bought a mask to hide his identity.

[Do you want to learn the skills in the book?]

'No'

Hans chose not to learn as the skill embedded in the items consume no mana, he might consider learning them once he wins against the players hunting him. Hans exited the marketplace to see Byung, he felt anger but kept it under control as he still couldn't fight him.

Hans finally started to head towards Cerulean Forest. He equipped the Grapplers. They looked like the claws of a bear but more sleeker and metallic. Hans immediately moved towards the second part of the forest. There had noticed many players that filled the area than before.

"It's him" Hans heard a girly shout. He looked to his side, it was one of the girls he killed before. Hans quickly wore the mask.
