Chapter 38 : The Guild Tournament (CLOSE COMBAT) 8.

"Damn it…." Jin was dumbfounded, he knew the game gave out op items and cheat-like abilities to those who were worthy of them. He thought if he kept training, then he might have a chance at winning this tournament. Completing such a feat would've given him the attention of powerful gods. Or so he thought it would. But what can he do now? He can't move like before, the most overpowered ability in his arsenal was owned by his opponent.

"Don't make me pull you out~" Deco said cheerfully as a third arm began to form on his back, it wasn't like a human arm. It was more like a monster's arm covered in pure black. It had long purple nails.

"Do your job." Deco ordered the third arm to drag out Jin from his shadows. And as it got a command the dark arm moved inside a shadow, dragging his opponent out. Jin tried to dodge, however all of it was for nothing. His body got dragged violently out of the shadows and now he was forced to see his opponent face to face in a cripple form.

"My my, now that I got a closer look at you, I think you have the potential for a sex slave~" Deco said teasingly, his perverted mind coming out in the light. Making the entire crowd uncomfortable.

"Damn you…" Jin was frustrated. Not only was he humiliated by his opponent in combat, but now he is humiliated in the worsts way possible.

Deco walked to Jin, caressing his cheeks. While he had the look of a predator. He enjoyed tormenting Deco by humiliating him. "Aren't you an adorable one~? He then moved his lips closer to Jin.

As their lips slowly came closer to each other, Jin opened his mouth fully. A strange purple gas came out of his mouth. This time Deco dropped his guard in lust, and the gas attacked his face. Eating one of his eyeballs, as one popped out of his socket. His once feminine face now was that of a slaughtered pig. Anger consumed Deco, he started to lash out his anger like an undisciplined child lashing out his frustration at his mother for not buying him the toy he or she wanted.

Deco squeezed Jin violently, he wanted to squeeze him to death. However once a fool wants to win with pride only, they completely let their guard down constantly. He was so angered and annoyed that he blinded all of his sense and did not sense the mana Jin focused through his left leg.

A dark purple-like aura formed little blades at the bottom of his left foot, it was a basic skill he learned at the beginning of the game. Jin couldn't waste any time, while Deco was blinded by his emotions it was only a matter of time before he realized his hand held a sword. And Jin's head was to be cut in half by it.

Jin was betting on luck, he lost too much of his blood. He was going to die from the loss of his blood at any moment now. Waiting for an opportunity for Deco to move him closer with his monstrous arm. The moment appeared, Jin was just close enough to cut through Deco right at his crouch. Thinking that Deco was a female he felt dishonorable for attacking her at her secret place. But she already humiliated him and he had to win the tournament. So he activated his skill, and his left moved and managed to pull off the monstrous hand's grip.

Using this to his advantage, Jin attacked Deco. Cutting through his skin. Only to realize that something felt odd. He did not feel a woman's genitalia but that of a man. He was shocked and even more annoyed that a man tried to place his lips on his. Deco screamed in pain, being cut in the middle and losing what made him a man to another man in battle. He died as soon as he landed on his back.

"That's what you get you fuck-" Jin said proudly before fainting and dying just after Deco died. He got lucky and his opponent could've killed him from the start. Had he not played tricks on him and looked down upon him, he would have lost from the start.

-BEFORE THE TOURNAMENT ANNOUNCEMENT-

"Damn it, porn has become far too boring. No matter how great the graphics are, I am still not hard on by these," Deco said frustratingly to his friend that set beside him.

"You have a porn addiction man, I suggest you stop watching those videos and start sleeping with real women. Life is too short, don't waste it." Deco's friend who started to socialize with people in the real world warned him about his addiction and tried to offer him help.

"Of course, you would say that... After you just got popular huh?!" Deco didn't want to admit it, but his friend was right. Yet because of his ego, he decided to run away from comforting his addiction. Pushing away the only friend he had and leaving his friend's house. That's when he walked by the poster for the new virtual reality game. In a game that felt so real, people started to socialize with others around the world and work there in the game. Starting a new life as a different person.

It felt like a dream come true to Deco. He could finally run away from his reality. Live in a new world, far away from this one. Like his favorite manga protagonist in the Isekai genre. He could become just like them, insanely powerful and with a harem of beautiful women.

But reality hit him hard in the virtual reality game too. He started as a knight, but he couldn't wield the sword at all. The sword was far heavier than his body, he couldn't even lift it with two hands. He had nothing to add to all that. He wasn't lucky to find an op item or an op secret storyline. He was forced to train in the starting area for days. Losing his consciousness and dying from starvation from time to time. And he managed to wield a sword like a proper commoner knight at the end of his hell-like training.
