Chapter 83
“Closing the Gate and saving the NPCs alone won’t end this. The Gate keeps opening. To completely finish the Tournament, only one person can remain—everyone else must die. You know that, don’t you? That’s what Battle Royale means.”
Despite being an avatar, the Player’s eyes widened to their maximum.
【Ah, behold this madman’s face. This shameless audacity—wrapping demonic frenzy in the mask of justice! Beautiful!】
My opponent faltered, overwhelmed by my logic.
“That… that is…”
It’s the truth.
There’s no resisting it.
How could someone who isn’t even a Ranker dare think they should be the final champion?
As the Opponent Player’s expression—the one who’d tried to paint me as the villain—shook violently, a scorching thrill surged through my chest.
‘I never knew I had such an aptitude for this.’
Exhilarating.
I didn’t miss the opening and drove my blade into the Player’s throat.
[Aura Pierce]
Squelch!
The pitch-black blade pierced completely through the Opponent Player’s neck.
“Leave the rest to me.”
“…”
As if in agreement, the light drained from the Player’s wide-open eyes.
They scattered like a released spirit.
[Player ‘Let’s Enjoy the Game’ has died.]
Sword Dragon applauded.
Clap, clap, clap.
【Splendid. Not a word of it was wrong. The irony that slaughter becomes salvation in this situation—I love it!】
I suddenly remembered the broadcast window and pulled it up.
As expected, the chat was heavily pixelated but absolutely ablaze.
“Heh.”
They’re chattering away frantically.
I spoke to the viewers watching the broadcast.
“Everyone heard that, right? Winning isn’t what matters. The Tournament victory is naturally mine, and I’m saving people through swift victory. That is the duty of someone ranked 3rd in the live Tournament rankings. If you agree, respond with donations of 10,000 won or more.”
In response, donations flooded the chat.

….
The moment those words left my lips, the donations flooding in swelled—the zeros multiplying to four digits and beyond.
“This is it. My viewers truly understand.”
The real-world audience was cheering on my righteous purge as well.
Outside, everyone was undoubtedly desperate for this horrific tournament to end.
【All for the greater good.】
Sword Dragon suddenly dropped his voice, feigning composure.
That bastard had been subtly disapproving of my rescue efforts until midway through, but somewhere along the line he’d switched tactics.
‘So long as the deception lands cleanly, that’s all that matters.’
I liked that.
Then.
[⚠System: The Boarding Platform Gate has closed. 3/4]
“!”
The gate had sealed shut.
Only one Gate remained.
Crash!
I immediately shattered the window glass and thrust my body outside.
Beyond the train was silence.
No more monster movements registered.
Thud. Thud-thud.
‘Ahead!’
The front car of the train visibly trembled.
I activated the map.
Thanks to the Fair’s effect, Baek Hee-an’s location was marked on the map.
He appeared to be in the front car.
‘Using Fair was the right call.’
I immediately began sprinting forward.
Boom!
The passenger car doors shattered like paper under my blade strike.
[Strength 104]
My insane stats were the reason.
“Oh, Chicken….”
A Player I encountered in the passage recognized me and brightened.
Thwack!
My blade pierced through the Player’s sternum.
[Player ‘Hun-sal Hun-juk’ has been eliminated.]
As I tore straight through to the heart, the elimination message appeared instantly.
【Ahahaha! How merciless!】
My footsteps toward the front car never faltered for a single moment.
I glanced at the ranking board.
1st Place: Ian
2nd Place: Murderous Intent
3rd Place: Dark K Choco
4th Place: Chicken Bulssdagu
5th Place: HZERO
6th Place: Kung Panda Poo
It was deeply satisfying to have systematically eliminated every opponent I encountered, crushing them without mercy.
‘Now only six remain. If things go well, I might be able to finish the tournament this round.’
But there was a major obstacle.
‘Where on earth are Jeong Si-do and Jeong Hee-ji?’
I couldn’t see them.
Baek Hee-an had apparently defeated many monsters inside the train and reclaimed the 1st place ranking from Jeong Si-do.
However, that didn’t mean Jeong Si-do had fallen far behind.
When I wondered where he was—
‘…Jeong Si-do!’
A familiar silhouette wavered beyond the transparent door.
Jeong Si-do was in Car 1.
Boom—!
The moment I opened the door, a massive explosion came rushing out.
Lee Do-jin’s area-of-effect skill.
And right in front of the conductor’s cabin, a Gate spewed monsters from its gaping maw.
“!”
Jeong Hee-ji, who had taken the area skill’s direct hit from that direction, collapsed.
Jeong Si-do burst from the shadow of the fallen Jeong Hee-ji and tore into Lee Do-jin’s body with reckless abandon.
Thud! Slash-slash-slash!
Crash—!
‘What in the world is happening?!’
Thump.
As Lee Do-jin, drained of strength, fell to his knees, a notification window appeared before me.
[Player ‘HZERO’ has been eliminated.]
[Player ‘Dark K Choco’ has been eliminated.]
Both had died in an instant.
I immediately rushed forward.
Baek Hee-an, who had been handling the monsters pouring from the Gate alone, flinched and turned his head.
“Baek Hee-an! You keep hunting monsters!”
I shouted loudly to draw attention, and Jeong Si-do spun around to face me.
Clang—!
My sword clashed against Jeong Si-do’s short blade.
His eyes narrowed.
“Chicken Seat.”
Jeong Si-do couldn’t possibly have been unaware that someone was approaching.
He just didn’t know it was me.
“You were right. The NPCs’ behavior is far too realistic, and there are too many anomalies in this tournament. We should end it quickly.”
“If you understand, then die already!”
“That’s your job.”
“Yours!”
Jeong Si-do and I unleashed our Murderous Intent simultaneously.
“Die—!”
Despite being a Game avatar, Jeong Si-do’s killing intent felt strikingly vivid.
‘This insane bastard!’
This was no joke.
The neck, armpits, subclavian artery and heart, kidneys—
He targeted only the fatal points that would trigger critical hits with the slightest touch, moving with terrifying speed and precision.
Clang! Clang-clang!
Crash—!
Jeong Si-do and I swung our blades frantically in the narrow passage, with Baek Hee-an and the Gate ahead of us.
Like a true assassin, extinguishing life was Jeong Si-do’s specialty.
But in close combat, I had the advantage.
Thud! Crack!
“!”
Jeong Si-do’s eyes widened as he staggered from the leg strike I finally landed, but he didn’t leave an opening.
He deflected my swung blade lightly and vanished.
Shadow Movement.
Boom—!
I naturally expected him to burst out from the shadow behind me.
“!”
He wasn’t in my shadow.
“Baek Hee-an!”
I shouted with all my might without even turning around.
Flash, boom-boom-boom-crash—!
The moment I turned my head, lightning erupted mercilessly.
“?!”
I tried to retreat, but there was no impact.
‘The Fair!’
Crash! Shatter!
Every window inside the train exploded outward, and everything in front of the train charred black before melting away.
‘…Ah. This is it!’
She wasn’t ranked first overall for nothing.
The result of charging at someone who claimed to target openings while dominating the entire world through pure magical prowess was utterly catastrophic.
‘Phew. That was close. I survived because I’m in Fair status with Baek Hee-an.’
Since Baek Hee-an unleashed such a wide-range skill, I was naturally caught within its blast radius.
But thanks to the Fair setting, my HP took no damage whatsoever.
“Behind.”
Baek Hee-an, who had fried the monsters pouring from the Gate along with Jeong Si-do alive, gestured with his chin toward my back.
Poof.
Jeong Si-do, who had lost a massive amount of HP, revealed himself from behind.
His HP was recovering—he must have used a health potion immediately.
“….”
Instead of curses, Jeong Si-do wore a sharp smile at the corners of his mouth as he charged toward me.
Tat-tat.
Gleaming crimson eyes.
Murderous Intent.
A magic sword acrobat is perfect for blocking the blade strikes of the god of assassins wielded at close range.
“Red Star. Can you beat him?”
I immediately cast the Constellation possession skill.
A baton pass.
[Incarnation]
Red Star, settling into my body, smiled with satisfaction.
“【I shall sever his neck.】”
Boom-crash-boom!
Boom-boom-boom—!
The speed changed dramatically.
A Constellation battle.
Specifically, a fight between the absolute elite Rankers wearing crowns among the Constellations themselves.
Crash-crash-crash—!
Screech, boom!
Jeong Si-do’s vicious blade strikes aimed for my shoulder and thigh.
But Red Star blocked every swift strike with his characteristic magical and acrobatic swordplay.
‘Damn, that’s cool.’
The thrill of watching was considerable.
Though my HP bar was being shredded in an instant.
He blocked well—blocked everything—but since both our attack power and attack frequency were so high, my HP drained rapidly no matter how well I defended.
But it was fine.
‘Jeong Si-do’s health pool is already bottomed out, so even this gives me good odds. Still, I need to win quickly, or….’
Boom—!
That’s when Jeong Si-do’s dagger grazed quite deeply across my forearm.
My HP decreased.
‘Damn it.’
Instead of severing his neck, I’m the one about to get cut down.
I cursed inwardly, but in that instant, a scorching exhilaration blazed through me—Red Star’s consciousness surging with it.
That electrifying sensation of assured victory.
