Chapter 13: Massacre 

[You've killed XxLmaoxX!]

[You've killed John!]

[You've killed Albert!]

[You've killed Sumetsu!]

[You've killed Asmophel!]

[You've killed Asmophel1!]

Their healths are already when I got there and as I delivered the final blow against them, there are players who saw me kill the survivors of the explosion.

"You fiend!"

With one swing to their weak point, I ended this player's life.

[You killed 1Peter1!]

The first phase of the plan is going well, as multiple establishments exploded and I went there as fast as I can catching up to Sumire. At the same time, I dealt with the surviving few, they still have a healthy amount of lives. However, since most of them are still low-leveled, with just a few swings of my sword even their mightiest tank would fall, the only ones I should watch out for is the Silver Feather Guild members, since they have the necessary equipment and stats to deal with me their numbers is also a problem even though the one stationed here is just a branch of their guild.

After I killed for a straight hour, I rendezvoused with Sumire and she sat one the rooftop enjoying the chaos that's currently happening, as some of the fine establishments caught on fire and many players are on the hunt for the two of us.

"The second phase begins now, Sumire. Go all out."

The second phase is I camp the ones I killed in the respawn point, a graveyard north of the town, but it's guarded by the temple of beginnings, they're the most powerful beings in the Town of Beginnings aside from the players that could potentially grow infinitely.

Despite that, without the mask, I could probably sneak my way into the graveyard without anyone noticing me.

I tucked away my mask into my inventory and I looked at Sumire who put on a skull mask similar to mine and she jumped off of the rooftop as she laughed out loud and started her murder spree.

Seeing her control and just her skills alone it's suffice to say that she's on another level compared to the other players, if she were somewhere around level 450 then it could warrant her a place in the top 10 even.

I could commend her to Dark King's Hand Guild. Now with that out of the way, I made my way to the graveyard up north, there were a lot of players newly resurrected and there are people from the Silver Feather guild as well interviewing them, amidst the crowd I stood and I studied the situation first. I went to the furthest part of the graveyard and saw a few people there.

"Damn, if I die one more time, I'd have to create a new character."

"Why did things become more difficult all of a sudden?"

"Yeah, and that skull-faced bastard, if I ever see him I'll-!"

I listened to him and couldn't help but wonder about the difficulty spike, the one in the previous Town of Beginning there was a noticeable difficulty spike in the form of those hell hounds, so does that mean it'll also happen here? I sighed and unsheathe my daggers, then equipped the skull mask.

"What will you do to the skull-faced bastard?"

"Agh!"

[You killed LingYa!]

"H-he's here!!"

I lunged toward the nearest player and one shotted him, I sighed and glared at the rest of them who have had their levels drop by 4 already since they already died a while ago.

"Kill him! We outnumber him!"

"Call the Silver Feather Guild!"

[Lightning Bolt!]

[Strong Impact!]

[Arrow Shower!]

I swiftly retrieved a short sword from my inventory and hurled it toward the incoming lightning bolt, redirecting its course away from me. Seizing the opportunity, I charged toward the imposing orc player, exploiting my superior speed in the dimly lit night. My keen eyes identified the weak points illuminated by [Death Mark], and with a single swift strike, I brought him down in an instant.

As arrows rained down upon me, I skillfully dodged the deadly volley. With a swift motion, I redirected [Death Mark] to new targets, dispatching them one by one with lethal precision. My focus remained unwavering, and I moved with the grace of a seasoned warrior, navigating the chaotic battlefield with ease.

Chaotic as it is, since I'm in the middle of the graveyard full of newly revived players and their levels dropped together with the durability of their equipment, the Silver Feather guild wouldn't be able to reach me because of this huge crowd, but it'll only serve to stall them for a little time, eventually the number of players would thin out and I'd have to face them.

"Agh!! My arm, my arm!"

I skewered his head with the Cold Steel Dagger, then I went on a mad killing spree, my mind running calculations as I dispatch them one by one, because the average level is 8-12 then I could kill them 3 times before their characters die permanently, and from what I've researched, the amount of players excluding the Silver Feather guild in the Town of Genesis is somewhere around 400 with 30 graduating each day as they finish their class quest, then I should have enough to complete my class quest today.

"Hahaha! Found you!!"

I looked above and saw Sumire descend on an unsuspecting player killing him in an instant.

"What're you doing here?"

I looked back and asked her as I dodged a thrust from a spear and I jumped on its shaft as I ran towards its wielder, cutting his throat. Sumire smirked as she toyed with the players with her amazing control.

"Well, you could guess what the Silver Feather guild did, with the lacking amount of players!"

She spoke up as her dark sword sliced through 3 players simultaneously, killing them in an instant.

"Shit."

I knew this would happen. They've told the players to log out, she probably encountered them on her way here and that means they'll get here soon, their numbers are at a disadvantage, we need to clear these players quickly!
