Chapter 11 – Arrow in the knee?
”What was that sound?”
”Hurry and check! Move it!”
A commotion broke out in the village. Twenty village guards rushed to the explosive site. The villagers woke up and opened windows to check what was going on.
…
Tong continued running towards the North while glancing at his HUD map. The red dot in the East was chasing him from behind, while the other two switched target towards each other. After another minute of running, the three red dots reduced to two. The other two red dots, which Tong initially thought they were crashing into each other, were also reduced by one.
'Good. From a 3-on-1 situation turns into a one-on-one now.'
Tong stopped his feet and turned around, then he gauged the distance between him and the red dot.
'60 meters ... 55 … 50'
'He's coming out in front.'
Tong took out a grenade he looted from the grenade boy and put his other hand on the pin, standing by to throw the grenade at the moment he had the visual of the enemy.
The cloud of the night sky moved, revealing the full-moon. The moonlight shined down the land, a boy with a sword showed up. He was charging at Tong without stopping.
Tong noticed that the boy was clenching both hands on his sword while running awkwardly. He didn't seem to be in a position to release a magic skill or range skill. The boy screamed a war-cry and continued charging.
”You have no idea that you are already dead!”
”There is nothing in this world that I cannot cut!” The boy proclaimed.
Tong tilted his head to the side in amusement. His face and eyes were mocking the boy in front of him.
'Are you serious?'
'He's not trying to fool me or make me let down my guard, right?'
'What's with that cheesy lines? Middle-school syndrome? A chunni?'
'Welp. I can't look down on him. I'm a chunni too. Wasn't my skill created based on J*jo?'
Tong put down the grenade his was preparing and drew his blade.
'Since my opponent seems to be a melee type, then let me abuse my [Plot Armor].'

”There is nothing in this world that I cannot cut!”Bai Chi shouted as he was charging at Tong.
Bai Chi jumped to mid-air, raising his sword overhead, and then swung down.
”ZESTO!”
*Swoosh*
*Thud*
”I told you that there is nothing … eh?”
Bai Chi was sure that he got an easy kill. He had been using his swords to hunt down gangsters since he was eight. He had confident in his passive skill. He believed that once he could get closed to any opponent, then that opponent would be as good as dead. He never lost in the close-range fight even once.
However, Bai Chi sword was grabbed by a bare hand. Tong just simply raised his hand and grabbed the blade part. The sharp edge couldn't cut his hand.
Tong yanked the sword towards himself. Bai Chi, who was unprepared, was dragged forward.
As Bai Chi lost his balance, Tong stabbed his blade through Bai Chi's neck, claiming another kill.
[*Ding* *Ding* Double Kill!]
A confirmation announcement sound made Tong sighed a relief. He was lucky that both of the enemies were physical attack type.
Tong looked around and glanced at the map to confirm his location. He planned to return home for now because the bomb commotion was getting more hectic.
He didn't like the presence of the otherworlders here in this village. This is Zhang Jiao's secret operation base pre-uprising. Tong couldn't afford to have any otherworlder messing up with the trend of the history here.
Tong planned that he would get rid of the rest of otherworlders during the day or tonight since there was enough time. There was only two otherworlders other than Tong remained here.
*Fwoohs*
*Poek*
Before Tong could walk a step back to his house, a bright arrow flew up from a dark alley and headed straight into Tong's left knee. A sharp pain sensation that Tong hadn't experienced as of late was running from his stabbed knee into his brain.
”Ahh!” Tong cried in pain.
He looked below and found a shining arrow getting stuck in his left knee.
