chapter 13: 13: seojin's sword
the worst situation had unfolded for kim seojin.
even the regressor was siding with jiang min, despite his logic clearly being exaggerated.
this only pointed to one thing. the regressor was the second killer.
'i really hoped it wouldn't be him.'
even with the additional strength boost he received after equipping the sword, his strength stat was still lower than lee taehyung.
even his agility and stamina was lower, and that was when lee taehyung hadn't even used his free stat points yet.
the only thing in which he far surpassed the regressor was magic. but he had no skills to use his magic reserves.
'to think that i might die a second time in the last few days..'
he wanted to laugh at his bad luck.
'but if he thinks i will sit back and accept death, then you are wrong.'
'i can't only use guidance to peek at their secrets once a day. but when it comes to battle and guidance in fight, i can use it as many times as i want.'
he didn't exceed the regressor in stats. he didn't surpass the regressor in fighting experience.
both of them had a unique grade class. hence, everything looked to be against him in this match.
still, even without fighting experience or stats, he believed he could hold his ground as long as he followed the battle guidance.nôv(el)b\\jnn
life and death was uncertain, but he didn't want to die without trying. with his first death, he had no chance to resist.
he was the first to die. but this time, he didn't want to fail again.
"the identities of the killers are revealed. you should stay away and try to protect yourself as much as possible."
with two killers revealed, the other survivor was also revealed.
kim seojin didn't ask him for help. lee junho was someone who had the class more suitable for a cook.
he could scheme to kill players, but in straight battles, he was very useless.
if anything, he could become the first person in this team to die.
[soul snatch]
jiang min's eyes became empty. in the blink of an eye, his breathing stopped.
he dropped to the ground with a thud.
kim seojin was also surprised by the sudden change. were the two killers having some conflict?
'no, that's not it. it means the regressor is not the second killer! then the killer must be...'
before he could finish his line of thought, his [guidance] activated on its own.
a message appeared in his mind, telling him to dodge to the left.
the guidance felt like it was part of his body. it was like his instincts were guiding him.
before he could even hear the message properly, his body moved on its own.
he took a few steps to the left, noticing a sword sliding forth from his right side, missing him by a small width.
a thin thread appeared before him again, giving him a sword path.
he didn't have time to be shocked. he moved his sword, and sliced through the thin thread, not letting his sword lose the rail.
lee junho swung his sword, intending to slice kim seojin.
kim seojin didn't care about anything else. he was more immersed in his sword path.
to trail the path, he bent down and continued with his sword movement.
lee junho's sword missed kim seojin, but he didn't miss.
his sword came swinging, sliding through lee junho's legs.
arghh!
lee junho fell to his knees, his feet completely separated from the rest of his body.
kim seojin still wasn't out of his daze, even as his sword left a trail of red in its wake.
he kept following the sword path and stood up. he turned his sword down, and thrust with all his might.
