Inside Harvest Inn, Lawless was in charge of the inn's business after Rachel had left for the time being.
Lawless picked up a glass of liquor that Rachel had prepared beforehand, his face was filled with enjoyment as he held a cigar in his mouth.
"If you keep this up, you will never be able to pay off the debt you owe Rachel!"
Coll, who was fiddling with a small robot on the table, reminded Lawless.
All the players who frequented Harvest Inn knew about Lawless owing Rachel a debt.
A lot of them liked to tease Lawless about it.
They could tell that Lawless and Rachel's relationship wasn't just a normal one.
"If you can't pay it off in this life, you'll have to do it in the next life!"
Hanses, who was sitting opposite Coll, said with a smile.
Although he sounded like he was talking about Lawless, Hanses' eyes were looking at Coll.
The burning gaze in his eyes made Coll's hand tremble a little.
Fortunately, the people around them had their attention on Lawless and did not notice the difference between the two of them.
"That's right!
Lawless will have to work for Rachel in the next life!
"Let's drink to this grand goal!"
Ramont raised the glass in his right hand up high.
Although most of the players in Harvest Inn were lone wolves, only a small portion of them were lone wolves because of their eccentric personality. Therefore, most of them liked to cause a commotion like the others.
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
The lone wolves laughed and raised their glasses.
"Even if I have to work for Rachel in the next life, are you guys going to come back to my inn?"
Lawless rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed tone.
"Of course!"
Everyone replied in unison.
Then, there was another burst of laughter.
"May you guys live to a ripe old age!
Same goes for the next life! "
Lawless raised his middle finger at the crowd.
However, his retort only made the laughter louder and more carefree.
Without a doubt, with Lawless in the Harvest Inn, there was never a lack of laughter.
It wasn't just because of Lawless' personality that didn't mind being teased, it was also because he liked to share his laughter with his friends.
Looking at the lively atmosphere, Lawless instinctively sent an invitation to Kieran.
Then, he quietly waited for the reply.
Although most of the time there was no news, there was no follow-up.
But this time was different.
Ding!
The crisp sound of the PM notification immediately attracted Lawless's attention.
However, when he saw the name of the sender, the joy on his face immediately turned into disappointment.
General!
A somewhat annoying 'competitor'.
Lawless really didn't want to bother with him.
But in the end, he still opened the private message.
When the contents of the message appeared before his eyes, Lawless's glass of wine fell to the ground with a loud bang, shattering into pieces.
"What's wrong, Lawless?"
"What happened?"
…
People were immediately attracted over and started asking questions.
"Do any of you have news about 2567?"
"Hurry up, who has it?"
"Damn it, why is he so impulsive?"
"Those rooms are all filled with traps. Why did he just go in?"
"Damn it! Damn it! "
Lawless shouted as he stood up. His mouth was chanting non-stop.
Although his words were incoherent, everyone present understood what he was trying to say.
When the killer players appeared, Kieran went on a killing spree and after that, he showed no mercy to Black Robe Rayerwent. Most of them knew about it.
They also knew that Kieran didn't get all the spoils of war.
Broker, that cunning merchant, had sent a lot of his men to watch those rooms.
All the lone wolf players were dissatisfied with Broker's disgusting actions.
But what could they do?
The big city wasn't like reality but it was more realistic than it was.
Or in other words …
Cruel!
Even though there were some special rules that formed a certain level of protection for every player, there were always loopholes that could be exploited.
Unless one stayed in the game room forever and never came out.
But, how was that possible?
Humans were social animals.
Even the self-proclaimed lone wolf players would have a small gathering in Harvest Inn, let alone the others.
So, all the lone wolf players carefully advised Kieran not to be rash.
Some kind-hearted ones even helped Kieran by paying attention to the movements of the 'watchers'.
However, as time went by …
Most of them thought Kieran had given up on those things.
After all, compared to those things, his life was more important.
No one would have thought Kieran would suddenly make a move.
Message after message popped up before the lone wolf players' eyes.
The ins and outs of the whole matter began to gradually become clear.
Never underestimate the lone wolf players' intelligence network.
It was because they always acted alone that their intelligence network was bigger and more accurate.
Coll widened his eyes when he saw the gathered information. He couldn't help but read the message out loud.
"Outside Black Robe's four Chosen Ones' room, six veteran players under Broker were ambushed and killed, and almost 30 new players were killed together!"
"A couple of killer players outside Broker's room were ambushed as well. The veteran players' death toll was over 20 and the new players' death toll was over a hundred!"
"Broker has sent out a ten-man assault team …"
"Two minutes ago, the ten-man assault team was annihilated!"
When Coll announced the annihilation of the entire army, the entire Harvest Tavern fell into an eerie silence.
Everyone's heart was filled with inconceivable emotions.
Taking out one or two veteran players wasn't hard for the lone wolf players in the inn.
However, after consecutively killing six veteran players, killing another twenty players, and then completely annihilating Broker's ten-man assault team, which was bound to be well-equipped, this … this … this … this …
It was unbelievable!
One needed to know, other than the basic skills, most of the skills had a cooldown period.
Some of them even required stamina and other energy to work together.
Therefore, when the players went berserk, they could deal a lot of damage.
But after that, they would need to rest for a while.
That was the difference between a lone wolf player and a common player.
A lone wolf player who acted alone would need to take care of every aspect. The number of skills and equipment they had was a few times more than a common player, so they could last longer.
However, the continuous battles like Kieran's was something even the lone wolf players couldn't achieve.
"T-This is really scary!
Looking at the news, I think I remembered that guy! "
Amidst the strange silence, Ramont gulped, but his voice was still dry.
No one refuted Lamont's words.
All of them acknowledged his words.
At the same time, they knew who "that guy" was.
It was too fresh in their memories!
One needed to know that it was one of the few times they had been living in fear.
The Witch!
The image of that arrogant and untamed woman appeared in every player's heart. Everyone shuddered simultaneously.
But soon enough, everyone's fear was replaced by anxiety.
They knew Broker would definitely make a move after suffering such a huge loss.
