Infinite Realm

The ground was dyed red with the smell of blood diffusing in the atmosphere. Sato stood still with his sword pointed downwards as blood dripped from it's tip, further 'beautifying' the floor with its crimson charm. Like a demon that had just committed a massacre, Sato stared at Blood Sword and Biyo before asking,

"Are you just going to keep staring or what?"

Blood Sword was angered at the death of his comrade for the second time. Despite coming for revenge for earlier, Sato had turned 22 men to 7, while also almost killing his secret weapon, Biyo; and eliminating Crimson Scar again.

Biyo, on the other hand, shivered as he looked at Sato. He had finally realized that Sato never aimed for him and was just playing mind games back then. A majority of his fear came from the fact that Sato was able to predict his reaction. This implied that either Sato had either guessed so or that Sato knew him closely.

"Who are you?!" Biyo yelled at him.

"Me?" Sato pointed at his face, "I'm just a nobody."

'"Liar!" Biyo lost his patience and darted at Sato. It looked like he had lost his reasoning as he was determined to kill Sato even though he knew he couldn't achieve that.

"Everyone, together."

Blood Sword also moved with Biyo, not forgetting to borrow the strength of the remaining 7 players he had brought.

"Fudo, handle those guys for me would you?" Sato glanced at Fudo, totally ignoring Biyo's approaching figure.

"Sure." Fudo nodded. He had been bored watching them battle without getting a taste of the action. Now Sato had offered him a chance, even if it was one against a few weaklings, he didn't mind it.

Fudo pointed his staff over to the surviving 7 before saying,

"Hahaha.[Explosion]!"

*Boom*

On the other side, Biyo had arrived within 2 metres of Sato and at such a distance, it wasn't difficult for him to attack.

"Die!"

With an almost absurd hand speed, far greater than that of an average human being, Biyo brandished his dagger at Sato. In return, Sato met the attack head on by swinging his sword at Biyo.

*Clang*

Metal noises rang out with bright red and white sparks spewing out as the two weapons collided.

A small short breeze rubbed Sato's cheeks as he stared at Biyo's face that had a scowl on it.

"Hehe." Sato smirked at Biyo.

Infuriated, Biyo tightened his grasp on his dagger and withdrew it immediately, before brandishing it multiple times at Sato.

Another round began between the two as they fought aggressively with one another. Biyo couldn't harm Sato and Sato wasn't in a hurry to finish off Biyo so the battle became a stalemate of sorts. But if one were to look carefully, they would see that Sato had everything under control.

Blood Sword suddenly appeared behind Sato and brought down his great-sword. With a red glint, the sword came down heavily like thunder[1] from the heavens.

Sato swiftly dodged the strike while retreating to the sides, but Biyo chased after him like a nasty dog plaster.

"It seems you're eager to die. It's about time I end this farce."

Sato turned and slashed back at the advancing Biyo. It looked simple but in the eyes of an expert such as Biyo, the attack was flexible; seeming as if it could assault him from any angle.

'Shit.'

Biyp couldn't react in time and tried his best to tilt to his left but the sword still chased after him.

'Now!'

Sato speed up his movements and by the time Biyo realised this, it was too late.

-52 (8/130 Biyo)

Luckily for Biyo, the attack didn't finish him off. Unluckily for him, Sato wasn't done.

Just like with Crimson Scar, Sato punched at Biyo with his left hand and though Biyo had seen him do this before, he never expected Sato to do the same to him.

*Bang*

It wasn't a full-powered punch so Biyo didn't receive any damage, but it sure was hell was still painful.

The punch had placed Biyo in a slightly stun state, and not the status effect type but rather, Biyo himself was stunned. Sato then followed up with a simple sword thrust at him and this turned out to be the strike that seal d the deal.

-53 (0/130 Biyo)

Like ashes falling from above, Biyo.s body disintegrated into brilliant particles.

Blood Sword, who was left out during that time, glanced at Biyo's dispersing remains before taking in a deep breath.

"Retreat!" Blood Sword yelled as he glared at Sato with red eyes before running away.

Blood Sword's remaining comrades were struggling against Fudo. They had lost two of their men to him, leaving behind only 5 players. The 5 players were happy to hear Blood Sword's retreat call since Fudo had formed an almost impeccable defense against them, despite being a mage. Hearing Blood Sword's words, they ran with their tails behind their heads, as fast as they could away from the Fire elementalist.

"This guys are all creeps."

"They're too strong."

The players ran helter-skelter, away from the sight. Fudo wanted to give chase but his [Agility] wasn't up to the test. So he instead, focused his attacks on one target, hoping to take him down and increase their loses even more.

"You think you can get away." Sato said, but not to the escaping cannon-fodders but instead to Blood Sword.

Sato dashed after the escaping Blood Sword, like an eagle diving for a fish in the river.

"You dare to chase me?!" Blood Sword shouted with unbelief.

"What wouldn't I dare to do." Sato replied perfunctory.

Blood Sword was scared silly as he knew that he couldn't handle Sato on his own. Even his backer, Biyo, died at his hands much less him.

"Let me go and I can write off this debt for good." Blood Sword said. What the mouth says isn't always what the mind thinks. Blood Sword was just mouthing meaningless words hoping that Sato would let him go. As for writing things off? A tyrant like Blood Sword wouldn't let things go so easily.

"Hmph. What do you take me as? A 7 year old? Why don't you stop running. I promise I won't attack." Sato replied in return.

"Tch. B**tard! You dare to play with me?!! The strength of my backers isn't something you can ignore all by yourself. Stop this farce now or you will surely pay for it later on!" Blood Sword roared.

"Later on? Fine then. I don't mind waiting for later on. But now, you die." Sato stopped talking and immediately accelerated even faster, reaching Blood Sword within a second. The distance between them wasn't much to start with and with the time that went on as they were talking, Sato had already caught up to Blood Sword.

"Greet the devil for me in hell." Sato's glinted as he slashed at Blood Sword using [Chop].

Blood Sword tried to block but with such measly reflexes and [Dexterity] when compared to Sato, it was a pointless act.

-60 (110/170 Blood Sword )

"It would take more than two strikes to finish me" Blood Sword commented as he hacked at Sato using the [Berserker]'s [Cleave]. As a [Berserker], Blood Sword not only had a high [Strength] value but also high [Endurance] and [Vitality]. So it wasn't surprising that Sato's

"You're right." Sato replied as he dodged the great-sword. "3 strikes should do it."

Sato once again used a sword art but not the Lotus Sword Art. Instead he used the common martial skill, Mountain Slash. Applied to this was also the [Swordsman] skill, [Hack].

-58 (52/170 Blood Sword)

Though the skill [Hack] caused only an additional 10% when compared to [Chop]'s 20%, Sato had almost caused the exact same damage because of the martial skill he used.

"How...?" Blood Sword stuttered before turning around to escape. Oh, if only he knew that doing so would make things worse. Sadly for this villain, he didn't.

"It's over."

With his back wide open like that, there was no way for Sato to miss his target. This time, he aimed at Blood Sword's head. During their brief battle, Blood Sword had been shielding his head since he knew that Sato usually goes for the head [2] but now that he was retreating, Blood Sword didn't have the luxury to do so again.

Blood spilled as a sword penetrated the skull of Blood Sword's head, exiting through the middle of his eyebrows. For some, this would be a gory scene but for Sato, this was just another day in a VR world where the strong rules.

Sato pulled out his sword as Blood Sword's body began to disintegrate. He swung it to the side, strewing blood all over the place.

"Are you done?" Sato turned and asked Fudo who was a few metres behind.

"Yeah. 3 of them got away but the rest went to meet their fellows." Fudo smiled. It looked like he had just experienced another day at the park rather than fighting a bunch of dark players.

"No problem. Those ones should pretty much know how to deactivate this barrier. Once it's done let's go back to town; we've wasted too much time." Sato sheathed his blade as he spoke.

The two weren't worried that they would get arrested, why because their markers were still glowing green. They were attacked first by the group so the System had counted their entire actions as self-defense. As long as it's only your attackers that you kill in self-defense mode, the System wouldn't charge you for anything.

"Once we log off, contact Takehasi for me. I'm pretty sure he would love to get revenge back against Biyo." Sato smiled.

Takehasi was the founder of Blue Diamond Guild, their class' guild back then in Conquest. The fall of his guild was due to the fact that they had discovered a god level artifact and the news was made to known to the Hell Raiders.

Apart from Kara, a friend of theirs who betrayed the guild, the down fall of the guild was also thanks to Biyo, who went by the alias of Katsumi back then. Takehasi had always wanted to take revenge but he couldn't since after that day, he never saw Biyo again. But now, Sato had discovered that he migrated over to Infinite Realm. If Takehasi knew this, he would stop at nothing to get his revenge.

'He would be a useful addition to the club..' Sato glanced at the radiant ball of light hung up in the sky.
