You might have realized by now, but the author barely remembers what's he wrote a few days ago. Aqua apparently has two t6 friends, but the one who joins ZW is not the one she fought to help in past timeline.

Knowing everything in the main story that's a generous take on his standing as a T3 player.

And he's super negative about it.

For influential people handling all your problems by killing is dumb and should always be a last resort as its messy and can come back to bite you. You would constantly have to worry about witnesses, evidence, and even your hired killers backstabbing you. And if she does it this easily there must be a trail of bodies waiting to be discovered which is a ticking timebomb.

Care to elaborate? Attacking when a target is occupied with something else, especially life and death, like a fierce battle is an opportunity. Another opportunity is the moment the target wins and the thrill of victory washes over them and feel invincible. I've personally experienced and have seen people be surprised when they are engrossed. Of course attacking when the target isn't expecting a fight like outside of battle or when sleeping is good as well. Also when going to the restroom or engaging in fun activities at night.

I guess it was a betrayal, but mc really doesn't care about Shadow. At least not enough to ever go out of his way to sabotage them or wipe them out. The only conflicts are the ones shadow started.

Mc wasn't a top player. Mc is only strong compared to the players because they are all noobs to the immersive VR game that's disgustingly in depth while mc has 10 years experience. He also hasn't come across any of the really strong players yet. His guild after 10 years was only close to First Rate Guild. In Order of Guild Ranks: Non Rated, Third Rate, Second Rate, First Rate, super first rate, Super guild, and top five super guilds. Shadow was a new guild mc worked to the bone to reach Second Rate and only recently was close to becoming First Rate. And in the game players not only level up but have tiers to upgrade their class professions. 0 where you start, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4, Tier 5, and Tier 6 God. Mc only reached Tier 3. Tier 3 is where most players of the game are after 10 years. The true elites are tier 4 and higher and tier 6 are the godly players. Mc being level 200 tier 3 is only an ant compared to to tier 6 player. A tier 6 can by no exaggeration kill a tier 3 by just breathing. There are also combat level/martial art realms I won't go into but mc second to last of these realms right now. So by his guild, profession tier, and combat level mc is by no means a top player in his first life.

So they are speed running ruining their game? And the mc logical can't complete with anyone even with his skills if they are fully armed in the best gear and skills money can buy. Its plot armor if mc actually wins this. Would prefer the exchange system from RSSG where you could buy gold and items, but only from other players. It Jack's up the cost for the super rich and the common players can make their fortune.

The only bad choice he made was going out hunting alone and getting lucky he didn't meet someone that could kill him. He's not playing the game for just fun but to make it s living off it. That way he can play the game over having to work and reach his dream of becoming the best. The NPC's that are too life like are the ones making things so life and death and almost prevented him from reaching his goal when they could have pushed back the training for a week. They should be glad the mc isn't mad at them for both preventing him to go to the tournament and putting him in a dangerous illusion without his consent.

What gave that impression?

If you get nothing for it why bother with the announcement?

It's not that much XP to kill over. If you are already over 30 it's like maybe a level or two right?

This is ridiculous. Who kills a person over this? He didn't even go against her. And it probably cost more and more risk than just firing him.

Then why waste time by not telling him that? He was just silent.

It's a game!

And you trash as an result.

Isn't this too much. For one showing the mc has strong will again. For getting upset at almost killing a NPC. And two for this actually being a threat to his life for a game?

Was it really necessary to make the mc both a spirit summoner and beast tamer? The abilities overlap too much.

Can't agree. Attacking mid battle or when exhausted is ideal. Not expecting would mean when you are certain no battle can happen like going home/outside a combat area.

I hope mc doesn't reach the top right away. If he does it means players are no longer rivals for mc.
