Death.

A nametag floated above the Hitman's head.

[OneShot]

OneShot's face was cold as ice— he was holding his revolver in one of his hands while his second hand was still in his gun holster.

Every class has different weapons available— Isaac wasn't aware of it, but Flintlock was for the Marksmen, that is another reason why the Marksman class is not very liked.

The Revolver has only a 10 second reloading time, while the Flintlock has 30.

The Revolver also has two bullets instead of 1! But OneShot had an upgraded revolver with 3 shots and also the old version with 2 shots.

In total, 5 shots! While Isaac had only 3, two in the Uncommon Flintlock and 1 in the older one.

Hitmen also had a better Special Stat— Instinct is a very versatile ability, it makes his odds at survival better, and it was especially strong during combat.

OneShot saw Isaac holding his Flintlock pistol, he had killed a few Marksmen previously, and everyone had the same weakness, the reloading time.

One bullet most likely won't be able to kill him— headshot would be a different case.

But, the Hitman class had weaknesses as well. It is a Shooter class, but it doesn't have a shooting related special stat, which made aiming with the Hitman class extremely difficult, and since the game is new, OneShot hadn't learned to shoot from far away yet— that's why he needed to sneak up and deal finishing blows from up close.

He was around 30 meters away from Isaac, which is still a distance he would miss from, and even if it would hit by a miracle, it still wouldn't be enough to kill his opponent.

But, OneShot increased his agility since the start— he mostly ignored the other stats except for the Instinct. He used his agility stats and used the tree branches to get closer to Isaac, trying to be as quiet as possible.

Soon, he arrived on the tree, which was right behind Isaac!

He aimed his revolver towards Isaac's head and started waiting for the best moment to shoot.

Isaac was still looking at the dark-cloaked figure in the tree, having no idea that he was very close to death!

Soon, the three Beasts were slain, and all of them were killed by different parties, but two parties were left without any kills.

With enraged looks, they started fighting against other parties.

Isaac aimed his gun towards the dark-cloaked figure, who was about to throw his dagger towards the parties.

He did the first breathing method, and his hand became steady— he changed his posture the way Krystal taught him and squeezed the trigger.

*Bang*

The bullet left the barrel like a cannon, and the dark-cloaked figure couldn't do anything except turn his head in shock towards the loud sound.

*BAM*

The bullet pierced his forehead, he died instantly.

[You Killed Player Worming!]

[150 XP Earned!]

Isaac smiled and saw that the parties didn't notice the loud sound— he was about to grab the Player's stuff, but then out of nowhere... His ears started ringing after a loud sound appeared.

*Bang*

Isaac went stiff and noticed blue liquid trickling down his face— he touched his head and noticed that there was a hole in his forehead!

He shakily turned his head towards one of the trees and saw a cold-looking individual pointing his revolver with a smoking barrel at him.

Isaac's body turned into pixels.

OneShot smirked and started approaching the other parties.

A message popped up in front of him.

[You Killed Player Wraith!]

[120 XP Earned!]

...

'I died?!' Isaac screamed in his mind— he didn't even have time to comprehend it before his vision became dark.

A message popped up in front of him.

[You Have Died!]

[You Have Been Killed By Player OneShot!]

[Do you want to use the Pearl of Resurrection?]

[Yes/No]

'Pearl of Resurrection... Oh, right!' Isaac exclaimed— he now remembered that he got it from Hellsky!

Isaac instantly pressed [Yes]

Previously he didn't even see his body, but soon his body started appearing— first, his head appeared, then his torso, then his arms, and finally, his legs.

His dark vision disappeared, and soon he found himself standing in the middle of the forest.

'Where...?' Isaac looked around him, trying to find where he was, but soon... He heard the sound of fighting! He turned his head towards the north and saw a spacious space not far from him with parties fighting!

He noticed that he was very close to the place he died!

He thought he would be respawned in his room, but he was wrong! The Pearl of Resurrection lets him respawn close to the place he died at!

Isaac became excited and quickly looked at his Inventory and Stats. He didn't receive any penalties for dying!

His Legacy Tournament Contender didn't disappear, and all his items were on Inventory.

He quickly put on his Chain armor and grabbed his Flintlock pistol.

'OneShot, huh...' Isaac started slowly walking in the forest, trying to find the man who killed him.

*Swoosh*

Soon, he heard something very quick moving in the trees. Isaac turned his head towards the trees and saw a cold-looking individual using the branches. This time he didn't go quietly— he wanted to reach the parties before they killed each other.

Isaac smirked and followed behind him.

Soon, OneShot appeared in the closest tree and saw dozens of Players fighting not far from him— he had his revolvers reloaded— this time, he was trying to kill as many as possible before they noticed his existence.

There were over 30 players previously, but now a little bit over dozen, every party had some casualties, which made the Players even angrier.

They were swinging their weapons, healers tried to heal their companions, but they were easy prey for others.

The ones with Shooter classes were the first ones to die— they can't fight against Fighter classes in close quarters.

OneShot aimed the revolver towards a nearby healer who was completely unaware of the peril she was about to face. She was trying to heal her companions, who would have already died without her.

Many tried to get rid of her, but her party members kept her safe.

OneShot grinned, and his finger approached the trigger, but before he managed to press it... He felt something touching the back of his head.

He recognized it as a gun!

He paled and put his arms in surrender.

''M-Mercy,'' OneShot said with a shaky tone, but he had his revolver ready to shoot.

''Shameless.'' He heard a pleasant voice, but then he heard another sound.

*Bang*

Sound of a gun firing.

OneShot felt his instincts going on overdrive! His survival instincts started doing their magic, but there is no way that he is able to dodge from point blank range.

He paled and knew that he was going to die.

He quickly turned his head in anger to see his attacker, but then he widened his eyes in shock as he found out the one who killed him!

''H-How?'' OneShot murmured and turned into pixels.

Isaac smiled innocently while standing on top of a tree branch.

A message popped up in front of him.

[You Killed Player OneShot!]

[200 XP Earned!]
