Is he the one who sent me the notification? 

Doesn't matter if he is the one or not. I have to kill him.

I slowly took out my sword, making sure he didn't notice.

"Why were you looking down the cliff?"

Keep him busy talking and slash him.

"I was looking for the exit"

I immediately slashed him or I should have, but his body disappeared again.

"You are too obvious" he said from behind me. 

"....."

How is he doing this?

A skill?

"Did you really think I wouldn't notice that?"

"Cut the crap and let me kill you!"

"I might have agreed if you had asked nicely"

This guy is getting on my nerves.

"Do you know what's going on?"

"What do you-oh! About the exit?"

I nodded.

"I don't know. This was supposed to be the endpoint, but there is a floor here for some reason"

Is he telling the truth?

It's so frustrating to talk with someone you want to kill.

"Since how long have you been here?"

"About an hour"

An hour!

"And you still haven't found an exit?"

"There is no exit. I searched everywhere"

"I see. So how about you give me your orbs and log out?"

"Nice idea, but I have to win this event"

"Everyone wants to win the event, but not everyone can win it"

"I don't want to win the event, I need to win the event" 

"I am sure you somehow cheated all your way here, like you did with the Zeus fight"

"That is not considered cheating. It was an all player battle, and I just did what I had to do"

"Don't you find it frustrating if you work hard to weaken someone and someone else steals your prey?

"That is indeed frustrating, but it's not like I enjoy doing it. There are some things you have to do when you have to do them"

"Okay, enough chatting. Now give me your orbs if you don't want to die"

"I need to win this event so that's out of option"

"What is the need that you are so furious to win the event?"

"Have you ever been in a situation where your life depends on it?"

".....!"

"Like your future depends on it. Like you will lose everything if you don't do it? I am in that kind of--"

"So it was you after all"

I threw the sword at him.

I was hoping that his figure would disappear again, but it didn't.

He tried to run but tripped and fell down.

I grabbed him and pulled him up.

"Wait! Wait, wait, wait! I have no idea what you are talking about but you are misunderstanding"

"Like I will believe that!" 

I raised my fist to punch him.

"Wait. I really have no idea what you are talking about. You can beat me all you want, just don't kill me"

"Why?!"

"What?"

"Why do you need to win this event?"

He averted his gaze, saying, "It's personal"

I raised my fist again.

"Okay! Fine! I will tell you, so stop doing that!"

"Spit it already"

"I need to prove myself"

"What?"

"I want to prove myself and stand beside her"

"....."

"I want her to see me"

"....."

"I want to show her that I can do anything without her support"

"Who the hell are you talking about?"

"I am talking about Miss"

"Who the hell is this Miss?"

"My master"

"What master?"

"I am a butler to a noble family"

"Bullshit!"

"I am telling the truth"

"Okay, then what family are you talking about?" 

"Titania!"

"Titania...that's from Rosemarie kingdom"

"Yes!"

"How is that possible?!"

"This game is worldwide"

"I know that!"

I forgot about that!

"And I serve the princess...my apologies. She is a queen now"

"You are her butler?"

"Yes. I am her personal butler"

The name of the kingdom changes with the ruler. The current ruler is princess Rosemarie.

"I don't remember hearing about her coronation"

"It's secret information--oh shit! I just told you!"

I raised my fist and said, "Tell me more about that. When did it happen?"

"I can't! I can't betray her"

"Tell me or you are dead. Don't you want to prove yourself?"

"It happened 3 months ago"

"Why is no one informed about it?"

Our family should have been informed about that. In fact, they would have invited us.

"King Balood was assassinated in his sleep"

"Huh?"

"It has still not been made public, and the coronation of princess Rosemarie was done the next day in secret. Only I and some other people know about it"

Assassinated.

Could it be the same people who want to kill Edens?

"Are you telling the truth?"

"I swear on the Queen's name"

So, the princess plays this game too?

"Interesting"

I let him go.

I noticed that he doesn't have any weapons, nor any secondary weapons.

"Uhh...Arthur"

"Don't you dare call me that!"

I hate that name.

"Oh, it's Adas"

"How do you--"

Scores chart!

"Okay, now give me your orbs" I said, plucking out my sword from the wall and pointing it at him.

"You promised you will let me go"

"I never did"

Why doesn't he have any weapons?

"You are first already, why do you need more now?"

"...."

Why do I need more?

"You are more powerful than other top players. Why do you hide your powers?"

"How do you know that?!"

I swung the sword at him, but his body disappeared and appeared from behind me.

"What type of annoying skill is this?!"

"I can't use any weapons. I only have this one skill that I have mastered perfectly"

"It's the same skill as that kite"

"Kite? Oh, you mean Clyde?"

"Shut up!"

"It's a different skill"

"Lily, what type of skill does he have?"

"Who are you talking to?" 

[It's Illusion skill]

"I see, an illusion skill"

"Hey! Who are you talking to? And how do you know my skill name?"

He is freaking out.

[It's the skill which lets him make a figure, a projection of his body]
