Misty World: Start with SSS skill

Marine: Who is Petran? What is a misty lamp?

Mossye: I don't know. Perhaps the conflict between them is bigger than I thought.

Arasun: It's annoying.

Marine: Hey! Let's just talk. I don't want this group to lose any members.

Mossye: Leave them alone. If two members have a conflict while in a group, the problem is severe because they can't unite.

Arasun: That's right. I'm not afraid of strong enemies, just stupid teammates.

Hikaru did not pay attention to the messages of the three people. Seeing Sherwin's text message, Hikaru knew what he was talking about. Petran has the ability to find his exact location and the path to his territory, and the Misty Lamp he has can dispel the fog as he moves.

Hikaru, of course, knew that Sherwin was threatening him. He sighed, feeling a little tired of Sherwin's antics.

Hikaru: Okay, but the meeting place should not be far from my territory.

Sherwin: Don't worry, I'm about 2,000 meters away from you. Tomorrow I will come to your territory.

"Pks!" Hikaru almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Didn't Petran say Sherwin would come in 5 days? Why is he almost here? Is he coming tomorrow?

Hikaru was so angry that if Petran stood in front of him now, he would kill him instantly. Hikaru also knew that Sherwin would arrive earlier than Petran had told him, but this was way too fast.

If the group battle event hadn't occurred and Hikaru wasn't in the same party as Sherwin, he would definitely have been caught off guard by Sherwin's attack.

"Petran, you bastard ..." Hikaru growled. He was really angry.

However, if Petran knew that Sherwin could reach Hikaru's territory within a day, he would be extremely surprised. because Petran estimated that it would take Sherwin 3 days to get to Hikaru's territory.

Sherwin: Meet me at the Dungeon Gate. If you don't come, I will escort you out of this world.

Seeing Sherwin's message, Hikaru pouted his lips in disdain. If it was before, he would have been very scared, but now things were different.

Hikaru: Don't be impulsive. I will definitely come.

Although Hikaru was not afraid of Sherwin, he also had to pretend a little. At the very least, he could make Sherwin think that he was weaker than he was, which would make Sherwin confident and underestimate him .

Marine: So... what about the leader?

Arasun: It's annoying.

Mossy: Oy! Arasun, is that all you can say?

Sherwin: I will be the leader.

Marine: Don't make that decision yourself.

Sherwin: Who objects?

Mossy: ...

Marine: ...

Marine: Okay, you will be…

Arasun: It's annoying, but I still want to test how strong you are.

Sherwin: Good. After solving my problem with Hikaru, I will come and find you. Your location is not far from Hikaru.

Marine: What the hell is going on with this group? Can't you all act normally?

Mossy: God! I can't see the future of this group.

…

Hikaru sighed and closed the group chat. He then asked Rika: "If a party member is destroyed, will the party be eliminated?"

[No. As long as someone is still alive in the group, the group will not be eliminated.]

"That means... you have to defeat all the players in a party to eliminate them."

[Right.]

Hikaru, hearing Rika's confirmation, began to make plans for himself. He didn't want other people to influence him. If the team members cooperated well, he could help them out a little, but the situation of this group seemed...

Perhaps without fighting another group, the members of this group will destroy each other. Fortunately, as long as one member of the group is still alive, the group has not been eliminated. As such, he only needed to defend his territory.

He shook his head, not caring about those things anymore. Hikaru used some soul points to level Vuni and Saraya to level 30. He thought for a long time and then used his thoughts to speak with Vuni.

"Vuni, Anno will stay here from now on. However, let her train the farmers for us. "

Vuni, feeling confused, asked: "Why, Master?"

Vuni knew about the conversation between Hikaru and Selvih, so it was not difficult for her to understand why he said Anno would live in this place. However, what she did not understand was why he would let Anno train the farmers and not give her a mission.

"I don't want her to be idle. Perhaps Anno would probably be the successor to the Queen of the Dark Elf kingdom. Perhaps she has learned a lot of political and military knowledge. And Farmer's training was not difficult, so she was the best fit. You and Saraya have another mission. "

"Yes, Master." Vuni replied and did not ask any more questions.

Like Hikaru just said, he made this decision because he didn't want to leave Anno idle. Besides, the farmers don't have any fighting capability, so if she fails, it doesn't matter. However, if she succeeds, then the one who will benefit from this was him.

But he thinks that Anno will definitely succeed because she has a very powerful hidden buff.

[Master, are you afraid to meet Sherwin tomorrow?]

Hearing Rika's words, Hikaru felt a real headache. He sighed and said, "If I meet him, I'll feel unsafe. Although I'm not afraid of Sherwin right now, he's very troublesome. "

[Master, I can help you].

"Hm?"

Although it was difficult to understand, Hikaru still followed Rika's instructions. First, he chose to evolve the skill [Sacrifice].

[Ding! To evolve the Sacrifice skill from UR Class to UR+, you need to spend 1,000,000,000 soul points, 1,000 Earth Stones, 1,000 Fire Stones, 1,000 Wind Stones, 1,000 Water Stones, and 1,000 Space Stones.]

When he saw the amount of resources to pay, Hikaru was startled. He asked Rika: "Is it really necessary to evolve the sacrifice skill?"

[yes!]

Receiving a definite answer from Rika, he let out a sigh and chose to 'accept'. Although he still had about 3 billion soul points left, the amount of resources that needed to be consumed made him feel a bit remorseful.

[Ding! Evolution has been successful!]

…

Name: Sacrifice

Rarity: UR+

Description 1: You can sacrifice anything (it must be in your possession). The skill has two options: elite sacrifice and normal sacrifice.

Description 2: Elite Sacrifice: This type of sacrifice only has a 50% success rate. If it fails, all the things you sacrificed will disappear. If it's successful, you will receive a legendary item.

Description 3: Normal Sacrifice: There is a 10% chance of receiving legendary items.

…

[Next, you must evolve the skills 'Scrutiny' and 'Follow' into UR.]

Hikaru, of course, did as Rika said.

[Ding! To evolve the skill "Scrutiny" from SSR to UR, you need to pay 1,000,000,000 soul points.]

[Ding! To evolve the skill 'Follow' from SSR to UR, you need to pay 1,000,000,000 soul points.]

Hikaru felt that the speed at which he was falling from a rich person to a poor person was as fast as the speed of light.

"Accept."

[Ding! 'Scrutiny' has successfully evolved]

[Ding! Evolution of 'Follow' successfully].

Hikaru was about to see the information about the two skills he had just evolved when Rika's voice rang out.

[Master, please hurry up.]

"Okay! Okay! " Hikaru, startled, quickly used the skill 'Sacrifice'.

[Ding! Do you want to use Elite Sacrifice or Normal Sacrifice?

"Elite Sacrifice."

[Ding! What do you want to sacrifice?]

"Scrutiny and Follow skills."

[Ding! The success rate is 50%. Upon failure, these two skills will disappear. Do you agree to sacrifice or not?

"Agree!"

[Ding! The sacrifice has begun.]

"Rika, will everything be fine?" Hikaru asked Rika a little worriedly. Although the failure and success rates were 50%, he was still extremely worried. In Gacha games, even if the rate is 99%, it is still normal to fail.

Rika was silent and didn't answer. Hikaru became more worried. He sat waiting for the sacrifice process to take place, and as if he was sitting on a furnace, he was unable to sit still.

About ten minutes later, a message appeared. Hikaru sighed and opened it.

[Ding! If the sacrifice is successful, congratulations on your new skill-Cosmic Insight.]

Seeing this message, Hikaru let out a sigh: "It worked."

…

Name: "Cosmic Insight"

Type: Legendary

Description 1: This skill can help you see your future and those of people related to you or whose names you know.

Description 2: You need to pay soul points to see the future.

Description 3: The near futureThis skill shows you are not fixed and may not be exact. Any action you take  can change the future.

Description 4: You can get information on the people who appear in the vision you see.

…

"See the future?" After reading the skill's information, he was even more excited.

[Master, don't get too excited. This skill allows you to see the future relatively, not completely.]

Hikaru nodded at that, but that was good enough because at least he could see a lot of things in the future. Thanks to that, he was also able to prepare adequately for what might happen.

Hikaru immediately used the skill "Cosmic Insight" to foresee what would happen tomorrow if he went to meet with Sherwin.

[Ding! You need to pay 20,000,000 soul points]

"Accept."

As soon as Hikaru agreed to pay, he found himself standing in a familiar place. In front of him was the Dungeon Gate. Within a radius of 100m, there was no fog in this place.

Suddenly, he saw Sherwin appear, which startled him.

[Master, don't worry. This is just an illusion; no one can see or feel you.]

Hikaru heard Rika and breathed a sigh of relief.

Sherwin wore white armor. On the armor was a golden pattern that gave off a magical light. Sherwin's signature blonde hair had grown, and it was similar to when Hikaru first met him.

The real Sherwin came alone to this place. He stood near the Dungeon Gate waiting for a long time. Hikaru estimated that Sherwin waited for about an hour. Sherwin suddenly sighed and said, "Looks like... I was wrong. I thought he would be my ally. "

After that, the image before Hikaru's eyes changed to outside of his domain. Sherwin rode on the Skeleton Dragon's head to fight with him in the future.

Hikaru saw himself in the future as he quickly used the weapon he received in the Void Challenge to fight Sherwin with ease. However, just as Hikaru was about to kill Sherwin, a shadow appeared behind him.

The speed of that shadow was too fast, and before Hikaru could react, the shadow swung its sword and cut Hikaru into three.
