└ hahahaha Comments are hilarious. I’m watching while eating popcorn.

└He cursed at Ren a lot in the beginning hahahahaha I know Moorim won’t be able to win anymore, so it’s okay.

└That’s it!!! Earth Champion Kazuah!! As long as you win, I’ll do everything that hyung really asks me to do. From now on, I’ll only be raising Earth’s children, so please let’s go for the championship!!

└ Hey b*tch, are you feeling good? Good mood? Live your whole life licking the butthole of a f*cking asshole like that.

―Ah, I’ve never really been impressed while watching lower league games, but today I am impressed several times.

-Yes, me too. In fact, I thought I gave up on winning this match because I did not gather the earthlings in the beginning to hunt the named, but mainly kill Westeros players.

―That was actually an incredibly efficient play. Predicting that no matter how low the stats of the named clones were, they wouldn’t be easy to kill from the beginning, so they went to kill the Westeros players who needed to be most vigilant.

―Yes, and then, as soon as their physical strength dropped to a certain extent, they noticed them like ghosts and started hunting the names. 2 kilometers already!

―Especially, the moment when I killed Sigurd’s alter ego was the most creepy. He figured out at once that he wouldn’t be able to break through on his own, and immediately set out to find another way. As a result, he lured his alter ego and eventually took it to the kill. It is difficult to have such intuition unless supported by numerous experiences. How on earth do I have to train to get a result like that…

* * *

Seeing the notification that Sigurd’s alter ego was killed, I clenched my fists.

This is the biggest obstacle of this match.

With this, Westeros and Earth’s kill count was tied.

“You son of a b*tch!”

Perhaps it was because they had lost the boss they had been raiding hard on so far, but the people of Westeros rushed at me with their eyes on.

I took out the spear I had prepared as a spare in my inventory.

[Current number of survivors: 1,472]

[Status of kills]

[1st. ‘Westeros’ 2 kills]

[1st. ‘Earth’ 2 kills]

[2nd place. ‘Moorim’ 1 kill]

[2nd place. ‘Alfheim’ 1 kill]

The number of remaining players is 1,472.

Currently, there are about 150 Westeros.

That means that there are almost all Westeros here.

‘I have to delete the variable here.’

The situation wasn’t too bad either.

Kwajijijijijik!

On one side, my clone is slaughtering the people of Westeros.

In addition, the Westeros guys seemed very tired from dealing with Sigurd.

This is why I must kill all Westerosians in this place.

‘Anyway, there are still 5 clones left.’

Having made up my mind, I immediately swung the spear while spraying thunderbolts.

Awesome!

With each swing, the severed arm and neck flew through the air.

Opportunities like this aren’t common, so I swung the spear with all my might.

No one came within the range of my window.

The scene of one-sided slaughter.

Still, the Westerosians persevered.

“You bastard!”

Three swords flying at the same time.

Three swordsmen were charging at me.

But those swords didn’t reach me.

visor! Chae Chaeng! Awesome!

Tring!

[＜Blood Reinforcement＞ duration has ended.]

[Stats raised by ＜Enhancement of Blood＞ are reset.]

The power that overflowed from the whole body rapidly disappeared after cutting the swordsmen for the last time.

My movements slowed down in an instant.

Kwajijijijijik!

visor! Chae Chaeng! visor! visor!

Those who should have died normally started blocking my spear.

The Westeros who saw it shouted.

“He is tired! Keep pushing!”

‘Tsk. It’s already half an hour.’

I immediately changed my attacking style.

It was changed from the method of recklessly infiltrating the guys and killing them arbitrarily to the method of calmly killing them one by one.

Then, the killing speed was noticeably reduced compared to before, but the bloody reinforcement stacks began to accumulate again.

Tring! Tring! Tring! Tring!

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (1/30)]

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (2/30)]

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (3/30)]

[All stats with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability ·······.]

And in real time, my body was getting faster and faster.

The people of Westeros who saw this were horrified.

“crazy! Be strong again!”

“What the hell is that bastard…!”

Tring!

[＜Thunderbolt＞ is activated.]

aaa!

In an instant, a tremendous thunderbolt spread out in all directions, and a shock wave was emitted.

Five players who were in the range of the thunderbolt exploded and died.

It was the first thunderclap of the day.

“I… Damn it… We could have taken 10 games…”

Awesome!

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (28/30)]

I ended the Westerosian hunt with the decapitation of the player who was chanting in resignation.

When I looked around, there were less than 30 Westerosians who had been close to 200 before I knew it.

Even those 30 people are being slaughtered by my alter ego.

Probably not even one will survive.

While they are attracting attention, I have to leave quickly.

‘This is the end of dealing with potential competitors.’

Now it was time to go hunting the other named alter egos.

[Current number of survivors: 851]

[Status of kills]

[1st. ‘Westeros’ 2 kills]

[1st. ‘Earth’ 2 kills]

[1st. ‘Moorim’ 2 kills]

[2nd place. ‘Alfheim’ 1 kill]

No more, no less, just one extra kill.

Then, at least, the number of cases of being tied with Westeros will completely disappear.

I immediately set out to find the remaining named clones.

―Ah, the number of surviving players in the Westeros system is few and far between. Oh, it just so happened that the Westeros player killed by Ren’s clone was the last survivor.

―It seems that Ren decided to root out Westeros beyond killing him. With this, the championship of the district is one step closer.

visor! Chae Chaeng! Chae Ae-Aeng! visor! visor!

From noble mtl dot com

Just then, I saw players raiding another named clone nearby.

They were Nakatsukuni people.

[Check the opponent’s abilities.]

[Name: Gilgamesh (alter ego)]

[Disposition: Pioneer]

[Strength: 77(+?)] [Agility: 80(+?)] [Stamina: 78(+?)]

[Spirit: 66(+?)] [Intelligence: 54(+?)] [Magic Power: 65(+?)]

[Awakening ability: ＜Special Swordsmanship＞ ＜Special Swordsmanship＞ ＜Extreme Life＞ ＜Extreme Mana Management＞ ＜Extreme Fighting Skill＞]

[Bonus: Half God’s Lineage]

‘They picked the one with the worst match.’

Against the alter ego of Gilgamesh holding a shield in heavy armor, Nakatsukuni, who are mostly assassins and melee physical types, did not have a good compatibility.

Because of the thick heavy armor and shield, it was not easy to give effective hits to the alter ego.

Even the stat balance was the best among the alter egos, so the Nakatsukuni people had no choice but to have a hard time.

Awesome!

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (29/30)]

I immediately dug in among the Nakatsukuni people.

There were 150 people, but most of them were bleeding.

In a word, it means that you are almost out of stamina.

For me, whose strength was wide-area attack, these were very tasty prey.

Tring!

[You have killed player ‘Hachimura Rui’.]

[Your HP is recovered by 1% with ＜Recovery of Blood＞ ability.]

[All stats increase by 1% with ＜Blood Reinforcement＞ ability. (30/30)]

[You have reached the end of the stats that can be raised with ＜Enhancement of Blood＞.]

[Stats increased by ＜Enhancement of Blood＞ are maintained for 30 minutes.]

The situation where the bloody enhancement perk was also turned on again.

From then on, the carnage unfolded.

Kwajijijijijik!

“Keep!”

“aaagh!”

“That monster bastard again!”

A huge amount of blood was splattered all at once, and the smell of burning meat emanated.

No one could block my spear.

―Ren starts hunting for the next named alter ego. And it looks like the hunt will be successful soon.

―The moment Gilgamesh’s alter ego is killed, regardless of the outcome of this match, the Earth System’s championship is confirmed. Yes, folks. Earth, which was despised and ridiculed as the weakest system, has taken a step towards the finish line.

―I never imagined that I would experience a day like this. The Earth… the Earth is the champion…!

I tore apart the Nakatsukuni players in one fell swoop, and started a battle with Gilgamesh.

visor! Kwaji support!

Gilgamesh is a typical knight type.

It is a style that blocks attacks with thick heavy armor and shields and fights against them.

In terms of boxing, it would be an infighter.

There were two main strategies for this style.

Like Achilles, he moved like crazy and started a long-term battle while accumulating damage.

‘Or press down with overwhelming force.’

And my choice was the latter.

bang!

My spear collided with his shield, making a dull metal sound.

Then Gilgamesh’s alter ego raised its eyes wide.

The power contained in my spear was on a different level from the guys I had dealt with so far.

‘But I’m not only strong.’

bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang!

Kwajijijijijik!

I hit the shield with great speed.

The shield crumpled a little with each strike.

―Ren drives Gilgamesh’s alter ego into a corner!

―Gilgamesh is helpless.

―Ah, calm down. You were so excited.

-Do you look calm now? The Earth… the Earth with a 0.1% chance…!

Geee

He hurriedly blew mana into the shield, but to no avail.

Thanks to the magic offset, he hit the shield while tearing the mana at once.

‘Where!’

Then he burrowed into my arms and tried to swing his longsword, but I didn’t even allow that.

He immediately fell back and continued to swing his spear.

It’s slower than me, but there’s a big difference in reach.

then?

‘It should be right behind.’

bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! Crack!

After beating for a while, the shield eventually shattered and the guy’s left arm was cut off.

And since the shield was gone, there was nothing he could do.

Awesome!

Tring!

# You have defeated ‘Gilgamesh (alter ego)’.]

Gilgamesh’s clone was split vertically from the top of his head, and a huge amount of blood poured out.

‘under.’

With this…

Earth’s victory is certain.

―In the end, Earth decides the championship!

-Now is not the time to be like this. This incident will leave a huge tectonic shift in the future Coliseum.

-yes? suddenly? Are you the one who was so excited just a moment ago?

―Did you forget your reward? It was said that the size of the dimensional perk varies depending on the probability. However, the Earth won by breaking through a whopping 0.1% chance. The exact rewards Earth will receive are yet to be revealed, but they’ll most likely get massive dimensional perks.

―Oh······ You are saying that the strength of Earth players, who account for 30% of the total population of the lower leagues, will increase overall.

-yes. As the number is so large, there will be more active players from Earth in the future!

[Current number of survivors: 82]

[Status of kills]

[1st. ‘Earth’ 3 kills]

[2nd place. ‘Westeros’ 2 kills]

[2nd place. ‘Moorim’ 2 kills]

[3rd place. ‘Alfheim’ 1 kill]

[3rd place. ‘Jolbon’ 1 kill]

[3rd place. ‘Babylon’ 1 kill]

The number of remaining players is 82.

And there was only one clone left.

aaa!

A beam of light emanated from a distance.

The shockwave that followed blew my head off.

‘My alter ego.’

– A strange situation happened. I thought Ren’s clone would be the first to be hunted, but it actually lasted the longest.

―Hmm······ As all of the alter egos were adjusted to the average stats of the participants, weren’t their stats reduced?

―Yes, it is. Everyone seems to have only come out with about half of their original skills.

―By the way, it seems that Ren’s alter ego has rather improved its stats?

-yes? What do you mean by that… So you’re saying that Ren’s stats were below the average of the contestants? For that reason, the movements of the alter ego are enormous right now?

―That’s true, but at times like this, you need to compare the stats of Ren and his alter ego. However, if my eyes are not mistaken, it seems that the alter ego’s strength and speed are superior.

-yes? No way······.

I moved in the direction from which the beam of light extended.

Now finally.

It was my turn to kill my alter ego.
