"Is he the Magician?"
Looking at the figure who seemed to be out of place, leaning against the pillar with his arms crossed, eyes closed, waiting for the game to begin, Mirror muttered to himself.
Shi Nai, who was sitting in front of Mirror, noticed the envy and yearning in his eyes as he looked at Rozen.
At the same time, there was a hint of jealousy.
Frankly speaking, Shi Nai still felt a little uncomfortable with such jealousy.
Although it seemed to be reasonable, because of the existence of the currency conversion mechanism, in GGO, professional players and top players were generally envied and envied by ordinary players. Coupled with their status and reputation, people have always been like this for powerful players, not to mention that Mirror was a famous first-class player in the past. Now that he was going downhill, it was natural for him to have such envy and yearning for Rozen, but Shi Nai still felt uncomfortable.
At that moment, Shi Nai took the initiative to speak.
"Do you care about him that much?" Shi Nai pretended to be indifferent and said, "Then go talk to him, he should pay attention to you."
Hearing this, Mirror reacted and quickly shook his head.
"I'm not familiar with him at all. If I just go up and greet him, he might misunderstand that I'm the same as the players who ambushed him before. That won't be good, so I'll just forget about it."
Mirror didn't have the courage to go up and talk to Rozen at all.
Shi Nai understood.
After all, in the real world, Mirror was a student who was bullied by senior students. For that reason, he didn't even want to go to school and chose to study at home. As such, he only had some contact with Shi Nai, and he had a sense of fear and resistance to others.
In this regard, he was very similar to Shi Nai.
In the real world, Shi Nai was also very resistant to communication with people around him. Even if it was not that he didn't want to make friends, because of his special situation, Shi Nai could not easily trust others, let alone spare the energy to do such things.
The reason why he was able to maintain his current relationship with Mirror was because he was his guide and they had a common topic of conversation about GGO. That was why they were able to get along.
But that was all.
Shi Nai did not have the energy to make friends with others, let alone communicate with others. As a result, she was not interested in other people. She only paid attention to the strong players in GGO.
Only by defeating these strong people and continuously defeating them would one become stronger in GGO. Then, one's spirit and heart in the real world would become stronger.
In this way, Shi Nai could overcome that weakness.
That was the only way Shi Nai could become a famous sniper in GGO in just half a year.
It was all for the sake of sending Hecate's bullets into the enemy's heads and blasting away all the powerhouses, allowing him to get closer to his target step by step.
The mirror seemed to more or less know about Shi Nai's situation, so when it saw Shi Nai's resolute gaze, a trace of worry appeared in its eyes.
"Is it really okay?" Mirror said worriedly, "Even if I'm just standing here, I can feel that person's power. He's really strong. Two days ago, you and the other players couldn't do anything to him. Can you really beat him this time?"
The mirror's worry was not without reason.
After the battle in the Land of Death, Shi Nai could not imagine herself defeating Rozen. She could not imagine Rozen being hit by her own bullets.
To be honest, Shi Nai knew very well that the probability of her defeating Rozen was infinitely close to zero.
No, it should be said that it was very likely to be zero. There was no chance of winning at all.
But so what?
"Even if I know that his strength is beyond my reach, I still have to defeat him."
Shi Nai slowly clenched her arms in front of her, letting her fingers sink into the flesh of her arms.
"As long as I can defeat him, this unprecedented enemy that I can never defeat, then this time, I will definitely achieve my goal."
Shi Nai had such a premonition.
It could be said that Shi Nai had no other choice.
Until now, Shi Nai did not know how many strong enemies she had defeated, and countless times thought that her spirit and heart were much stronger than before. However, she could not overcome that weakness, she could not overcome that tragic past.
Therefore, Shi Nai could only keep fighting, constantly fighting against strong enemies, hoping that one day she could achieve what she wanted in her heart.
And Rozen was undoubtedly the strongest player Shi Nai had seen in GGO, the most terrifying powerhouse.
If she could defeat him …
No, it should be said that if she could not overcome that weakness after defeating him …
Then, in this lifetime, Shi Nai estimated that she could not be saved.
Therefore, Shi Nai had to defeat him and overcome this obstacle.
Even if the probability was zero, it would be the same.
"… Is that so?"
The mirror lowered her eyes.
However, very quickly, the mirror raised her head again and looked at Shi Nai.
"Then do your best." The mirror smiled gently and said, "I will cheer you on here."
"Thank you." Shi Nai then relaxed her body.
Inadvertently, Shi Nai turned her head and looked in the direction of Rozen again.
"Huh?"
With this look, Shi Nai was stunned.
"That person …"
The mirror was also slightly stunned, looking in the direction of Rozen, a little surprised.
Not only the two of them, but all the players who were more or less secretly watching Rozen were stunned.
Because everyone saw it.
Someone was approaching Rozen.
A person who exuded a strange aura.
.....
"Hmm?"
Rozen, who was resting with his eyes closed, noticed something strange. He frowned slightly and opened his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, a horrifying scene appeared in front of him.
He saw that in front of Rozen, a person had appeared out of nowhere.
A person wearing a tattered dark gray robe, with darkness under the hood that was pressed very low. He wore a mask of bones on his face, and his eyes were glowing red like the Grim Reaper.
Such a person silently appeared in front of Rozen, raised his head, and his eyes lit up like will-o '-the-wisp.
Then …
"Is … it … you …?"
A low, hoarse, and heavy metallic voice came from under the person's mask.
"Are you … the real person …?"
The hoarse and somewhat intermittent words entered Rozen's ears, causing Rozen's brows to furrow even deeper.
For some reason, Rozen felt that this voice and the way this person spoke were a little familiar.
"Who are you?"
So Rozen asked directly.
This made the person's eyes turn even redder.
As if confirming something, the person's hoarse voice continued.
"Sure enough … it's just like what the internet said … you … came …"
The God of Death seemed to be grinning as he spat out intermittent words.
"Great … I actually … waited for this … opportunity … Those guys will definitely … envy me to death …"
The person said such inexplicable words.
Rozen just looked at him coldly, saying nothing.
In response, the person also seemed to stop talking to himself.
"I've been waiting … for this day … for a long time …"
The person then looked at Rozen.
"Let us … continue … to … enjoy … the … game …"
"The Magician … our former enemy …"
“It's
Showtime...”
