61 Lesser Purgatory - Insane Difficulty (1/2)
Cutting the bud while it is still young is not easy here. I am still weak and incomparable to Kazuki. Even with the amount of money that I will be able to possess after I exchange the gold in my inventory, I won't be able to rival the amount that Kazuki's family possesses. I won't be able to defend myself if his family will try to hunt me and my family. In short, I am still vulnerable. I am just biding my time and building up all the pieces I can use for me to fight against Kazuki. And when the day comes, death is just mercy for him...
So even though I am trying to slice him up in front of this crowd of players, I held back and calmed myself. As expected, Kazuki is the first one to approach and assess the situation.
”Who are you?” Kazuki asked as he eyed me from head to toe.
I didn't respond to his question. That will add a little bit of mysterious air in my persona right now. Instead, I confirmed the selection of the insane difficulty on the dungeon.
As soon as I did that, the whole air of the dungeon entrance started to get too hot. I am already familiar with it though, this is the nostalgic feeling from the last time I entered the place. This time, the portal did not appear behind me, but it appeared below my feet. I am used to it but to those who do not, they will freak out.
”Sh*t! Is that some sort of an event?!”
”Capture a video man! It looks so epic!”
”Can someone check the website if there is an event or something that is happening right now?”
”Dude that was sick! If not for the player icon in his head, I would mistake him as an NPC or something!”
”Wait, can you check who is that guy?”
”Lemme check...oh, it says I cannot do that. It was blocked! I can't even send a friend request!”
”A bugged player?”
”That shouldn't be. The devs would definitely fix it right away. Should we report it?”
”Let's try, oh...”
”What is it?”
”It says he is not a bugged player and he is certainly not cheating either. He is following the game properly! But what the heck...”
I grinned by myself. So I am not a bugged player. I almost got nervous about that one. If the devs would find out my ridiculously strong weapon and my titles, I might be revoked back to level 1. Still, I don't want to waste my time. I glared at Kazuki one last time and send out a bloodlust in the air. Kazuki shivered from the feeling and unconsciously stepped back himself. I will let him bask in glory first but I will make sure to make him suffer after that.
A prompt appeared before my eyes.
[Enter the dungeon? Warning, this is the Insane Difficulty dungeon. This is not a dungeon for the weak of the heart and it is recommended to form a party to clear it, are you sure you want to enter the dungeon anyway?]
Yes/No
...
As soon as I descended, I am falling to the ground. When I entered the first time, I am screaming because of this fall. Everyone won't expect this if this is their first time but for me, this is just the norm and part of the difficulty of this node.
I pull out my Versatile Weapon and changed it to a crossbow. Why I changed it to a crossbow? From my experience, the crossbow is much stronger especially in this situation than the original bow. The gun is much stronger than the crossbow but the aim of guns is a tad bit lower than bow and crossbow in an aerial battle. A bow or a crossbow is the most recommended weapon or you can ask a player who has a Hunter class to accompany you especially if you are entering the Insane difficulty of Lesser Purgatory.
