happy enjoying.
**********************************************
With my mouth closed, I was bewildered by the indecision
I haven't felt it in my whole life.
Then I said a word that would gnaw me for two years
fore.
“...OK.”
I nodded, walked backwards, and said it with my dry throat.
“Alright, let's split up here.
If you have any problems send me a message. ..well, see you, Klein.”
Klein called out to me when I took my eyes off and was about to leave.
“Home!”
“…”
I looked up but he didn't say anything, his cheeks just moved a little.
I waved my hand once and turned towards the northwest— towards the village I was about to visit.
When I was just walking five steps, a voice called out to me from behind again.
“Hey, Damar!
You look good in the real world!
I kind of like your style!”
I smiled bitterly and replied without looking.
“Your face is also ten times more suitable for you!”
Then I left my first friend in this world and ran straight without hesitation.
After I ran through the windy road for a few minutes, I looked back again.
Of course, no one was there.
I ignored the strange feeling in my chest and ran.
I ran towards the northwestern gate of «Awal» City and then passed through a vast field and dense forest, then head to a village located behind it— towards this endless survival game.
A month after the game began, two thousand people had died.
The hope of waiting for outside help had been shattered; no outside news had come.
I didn't see it for myself, but he said the panic and madness that players experienced when they realized they couldn't come back was huge.
There were people crying and some were roaring, some even tried to dig the ground in the city while saying that they would destroy this world.
Of course, all buildings were non-destructible objects, so this attempt failed with no results at all.
He said it took a few days for players to accept the situation and think what to do afterwards.
The first consisted of more than half the number of existing players; they were people who still could not accept the conditions given by Marcello the master of darkness and were still waiting for outside help.
I understand how they feel.
Their bodies may be lying on a bed or sitting on a bench while asleep.
That is reality and this situation is «fake», if only there was the slightest clue if they could get out—of course, the log out button has disappeared but there may be something missed by the makers of the game—.
And outside, the company that runs the game, Argus, will try harder than anyone to save the players—if they can be patient maybe they will be able to open their eyes again, meet with their families and go back to school or work and this will only be a conversation.
It's not wrong that they think that way.
I wish the same thing deep within my heart.
Their plan is to «wait».
They do not step outside the city and use the money they can at the beginning of game— in this world the currency is called «Col» — sparingly, buy the food they need to get through the day and find a cheap inn to sleep in, and take a group walk to spend time without thinking.
Fortunately «Awal» City is a city that is about 20 percent from the first floor and large enough to fit one Lasem cart.
So the five thousand players could have enough room to stay.
But no help came as long as they waited.
Often the sky outside is not bright blue but is covered by ash-colored clouds.
Their money won't last forever and they realize they have to do something.
The second group consisted of 30 percent, or about three thousand players.
It was a group that all the players worked together.
The leader is an admin of the biggest online game info site.
The players collected in this group are divided into small groups and share all their income and information they get in the game and explore the labyrinth area where the ladder is located.
The leaders of this group made «Black» Iron Castle their headquarters and sent out commands to various existing groups.
This large group had no name for some time, but after all its members received uniforms, there were people who called them by the name, which was rather spooky, which was «The Army».
The third group consisted of around a thousand players.
The group was made up of people who had spent all their Col but did not want to make money by defeating monsters.
As a side note, in the Sword World there are two most basic body needs that need to be met.
The first is fatigue, and the other is hunger.
seriate......
