Chapter 218

“Ho Sung, bring out a bowl for this little girl.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Ho Sung Lee spooned a generous amount for the little girl with a bright smile on his face and handed it over.

There was a spoon, but the girl used her hands to eat the mixed rice.

She then showed a surprised look on her face.

“T-this is so good…”

The girl exclaimed before she stuffed her face with more food.

“Slow down. You might choke,” said Ho Sung Lee with a smile.

Meanwhile, Min Sung tried a bite of the mixed rice.

Om nom.

Min Sung was also surprised by how fresh and new the mixed rice tasted.

In Korean terms, this was mixed rice with beef, but this Japanese version was different from what he was used to.

It was beef mixed rice, but the Korean version had glass noodles inside.

The key feature of Korean mixed rice was the soy sauce base as well as the strong meat flavors of the beef.

On the other hand, the Japanese mixed rice showed off a completely different charm.

First, the beef was so thin that it was soft to chew.

And the sweetness of the beef, onions, cooking wine, and sugar was unbelievable.

A sweet beef mixed rice.

He wouldn’t have thought these ingredients went well together, but after trying it, he realized its incredible charm.

The sweet mixed rice was various and vast, and it satisfied his hunger.

“This is good.”

The most simple praise came out of Min Sung’s mouth.

Ho Sung Lee smiled.

“Thank you.”

Just as Min Sung was about to take another bite, he heard footsteps.

When he lifted his head, he saw two players walking toward him.

Ho Sung Lee’s eyes immediately became alert while Ssol hid behind Min Sung and Bowl lit up his eyes with black flames.

“Hey… We’re not trying to fight, so relax. We’re not here to be territorial.”

The man with the more severe hair loss spoke first.

Min Sung didn’t listen and put a spoonful of rice into his mouth.

Om nom.

Min Sung didn’t even look at them and continued to eat.

Clang!

That was when the bowl that the 7-year-old girl was holding fell on the ground.

The girl trembled and peed her pants.

The two players looked at her with knitted brows as if they were disgusted.

Once Min Sung checked the condition of the girl, he looked at the two players with cold eyes.

“Get lost before I kill you.”

As soon as the balding man said that, the girl immediately ran away like a stray cat.

After the balding man clicked his tongue at the girl, he approached Min Sung.

But Ho Sung Lee stood in the way.

“He’s eating. Please don’t disturb him,” said Ho Sung Lee.

The balding man smirked at Ho Sung Lee and then nodded.

“Okay. Then deliver this message for me. It’s about the rules of Royce Village.”

“Rules? What are they?”

Ho Sung Lee asked.

The balding man glanced over at Min Sung and then explained.

“Beatrice is the players’ world. That means we’re at the top of the pyramid here. Those are nothing but little rodents.”

The balding man laughed as he continued, “There’s no need to treat them like humans. You can’t consider them as the same humans as us.”

The balding man looked at Min Sung, who continued to eat without a reaction, and then smiled at Ho Sung Lee.

“Don’t forget that. The rule is to never get involved with the Beatrice natives.”

Ho Sung Lee laughed out of absurdity.

In response, the balding man continued with a cold glare.

“If you break that rule, all the players of Royce Village will become your enemies. You don’t even have a guild. I suggest you don’t trust yourself too much. This place is different from Newtie City.”

Ho Sung Lee gulped and clenched down on his teeth.

After tapping Ho Sung Lee on the shoulder, the balding man smirked at Min Sung.

“Enjoy your meal.”

The balding man stopped in his tracks and looked back at Min Sung.

“Oh, one more thing. Just in case you don’t know.”

The balding man’s eyes grew cold.

“Don’t give food to those scum. They keep thinking they’re human because people like you keep showing up.”

Ho Sung Lee glared at him while clenching his teeth, but the balding man continued anyway, “If you see any kids or rude people, just kill them. If you don’t, the other players here will hate you.”

The balding man snickered.

“Just enjoy your freedom and have fun. That’s our right as players.”

He began walking again with his comrade.

At that moment, Min Sung wiped his mouth with a napkin and got up from his chair.

The noise made the balding man and his partner turn around.

Min Sung threw his empty bowl at the men.

The balding man blocked it with his fist.

Pow!

The bowl cracked and spread out in all four directions.

After seeing some sauce on his hand, the balding man knitted his brows.

Min Sung also looked at the balding man with a frown.

“Who said you could go?”

The balding man shook off the sauce and stiffened his face.

“Wow. You’re a brave newbie.”

The balding man snickered and whistled loudly.

After that, more players began to appear in all four directions.

There was a total of 10 players.

Their gazes looked bleak.

They looked so cold that they could pull out their swords at any moment.

The atmosphere was cold, but Min Sung’s attitude didn’t change.

A world of rankers.

And the thugs that they met as soon as they arrived.

He didn’t want to waste time on catching such bastards.

Even if that was the wrong decision to make.

Min Sung thought that if he couldn’t take care of such thugs right then and there, it was right for him to give up on cutting down the Iris tree on earth and going back home.

There was no such thing as perfect preparation in this world.

In the end, they had to face it head-on and overcome obstacles.

After all, that was how he had lived life until now.

As soon as Min Sung waved his hand in the air, the table and chair flew over. They rolled on the ground and slammed against the wall.

“You have interesting talents.”

The balding man smirked and opened his item window.

The other 10 players who enjoyed their freedom in Royce Village also took out their weapons.

The balding man stepping up first was the signal.

The 10 players charged toward Min Sung.

Min Sung also opened his item window and equipped himself.

Clack! Clack!

Min Sung put on a helmet as well as a full dragon hunter armor that covered his body.

And the Gungnir that he grabbed on to made a thundering noise.

The 10 players flinched at the shiny shield and weapons, but they didn’t slow down in their attack.

***

The first one to attack was the balding man.

He swung his sword with his right hand, and his speed and power were certainly different from what he had seen from other players.

But that didn’t mean he was better than Min Sung.

Min Sung dodged his attack and realized something.

The growth he experienced with the performance points given to him by the Dionysus Gods were much more powerful than he thought.

That meant he was different from all the rest.

Roarrrr!

Min Sung’s magic power caused the ground to shake and the air to become distorted.

Min Sung blocked his opponent’s sword covered in an Aura with his shield and stabbed him in the heart with his Gungnir.

It was a simple but the most powerful attack.

One player down.

And the other players used their attacks in the small timeframe when Min Sung had his guard down following his kill.

The numerous attacks didn’t do any damage.

Min Sung’s body faded into smoke and dodged all of the attacks.

The ground cracked in half, causing all of the houses to be destroyed, but Min Sung wasn’t hurt.

By the time they found Min Sung, two more players were bleeding on the ground.

The difference in speed was clear.

Min Sung’s nimbleness was so out of their league, that they were unable to see it with the naked eye or react to it in time.

Slash!

Gungnir chopped one of the players’ head off.

The player’s head cracked like a watermelon, and when Min Sung swung his sword, the magic power from within him killed 3 more players.

Once Min Sung’s superior power began to discourage the remaining players, Min Sung’s attacks became that much more efficient.

Min Sung’s Gungnir mercilessly stabbed through the 3 players rolling on the ground.

“Agh!”

“Ugh!”

“Agh…!”

They let out their final screams.

The familiar screams didn’t faze Min Sung one bit.

Min Sung coldly continued his attacks.

“N-no way. How can he defeat 10 players all on his own…?”

Min Sung moved promptly toward the remaining players.

Before they could dodge him, Min Sung was already in front of the players.

Swoosh!

Slash!

Followed by the sound of Gungnir cutting through the air, it stabbed into a player’s neck.

Min Sung’s attack was similar to wind which they could not doge.

Min Sung threw his Gungnir at lightning speed, causing it to stab through a player’s forehead.

Once Min Sung walked toward the Gungnir and took it out, there was only 1 player remaining.
