Chapter 618

Diavel was surprised somebody jumped out to say something . Diavel was stunned when he saw the sea-urchin hair come up on stage . This morningstar-looking player is obviously here to start trouble . He looked around with his squinty eyes that looked like a dirty rat’s . He pointed at himself like a smug p.r.i.c.k .

<hr>

“I’m Kibaou!”

He wasn’t afraid of making himself known in front of so many players . He addressed the audience with a prideful att.i.tude .

“Before the boss fight, I have something I want to say…”

He pointed rudely at one of the audience members here . Whether or not it was intentional, he pointed at Wu Yan’s direction . He was also standing so he stood out from the crowd .

“Somebody needs to apologize for the deaths of 2000 players!”

“Apologize?”

The others looked at each other with confusion on their faces . Most of them, however, knew what Kibaou is prattling on about . They turned towards Wu Yan .

Wu Yan just looked down from the raised steps at Kibaou who is glaring at him . He wasn’t fazed by someone calling him out in front of so many other players . Heck, he even showed Kibaou a look of utter disdain .

Kirito started behaving like he was the one who Kibaou called out, he clenched his fists while Asuna flinched for just a brief moment before she calmed down .

“Kibaou-san, are you referring to the beta tester from before?”

“Of course, I am, dumba.s.s . ”

Kibaou didn’t care that he was standing in front of the host, he continued yelling like he owned the joint .

“Those beta testers disappeared the same day this death game started, they left us to our doom!”

Kibaou leered at Wu Yan . He’s obviously targeting Wu Yan with his words .

“They monopolized knowledge of good hunting grounds, quests, and they enriched themselves with unfair knowledge . They don’t give a s.h.i.+t about people like us!”

The other players were influenced by Kibaou’s words . They leaked out looks of envy and hatred .

<hr>

Kirito went pale, he certainly did the things Kibaou said .

But, Kirito is more worried about Wu Yan who isn’t hiding his wealth or better equipment . Asuna also turned her attention towards Asuna .

Wu Yan poured cold water on their concern by showing a look of complete composure .

Kibaou knew he got the audience on his side so he started revealing his true motives . He yelled out loud .

“Beta tester, you better kneel down and apologize while giving up all your Cors and items . Otherwise, we just can’t entrust our lives to someone untrustworthy like you!”

The other players paused for a moment . Then, greed and jealousy gripped their hearts . They started coveting Wu Yan’s wealth and items .

And, he is without a doubt, the wealthiest of them all .

“This won’t end well…”

Kirito and Diavel shared the same inner thought . They were getting anxious on Wu Yan’s behalf .

Wu Yan opened his mouth .

“Comrades? Parties?”

He sneered while looking down at Kibaou .

“Hey, are you high or something?”

Wu Yan shocked everyone with his words .

“Yeah, I admit trust is very important when you have comrades fighting with you…”

Wu Yan narrowed his eyes and he snickered again .

“What makes you think you’re qualified to fight on the same level as me? Who died and made me your trustee for ‘lives’?”

“What was that?!”

Kibaou balled his palms into fists . Wu Yan disappeared from his spot and he landed lightly next to Kibaou . The words he was about to shout at Wu Yan got stuck in his throat .

“!!!”

He tried to back away but he tripped and fell on his b.u.t.t . The loud thud was like a knock on everyone’s mind .

“Wh-when did he…”

The players sucked in a deep breath .
