"-I'm sorry, I don't think so!"

Standing in front of the Tooth King, the girl with long hair looked at him without flinching.

Lanzi usually seems to be a gentle and good sister type, but as long as it comes to things related to her sister, she can't 'calm down' properly.

Although Naoba had just tried his best to persuade him to ignore this kind of guy on the side, Lanzi really couldn't tolerate the other party to continue to 'make a big fuss'.

Because her sister is also one of the closed beta players in his mouth.

"Women......? No, is it a ghost? ”

With a staggering voice, the Tooth King stared at the girl in front of him with a gloomy face who dared to stand up and question him.

"Hah, then you can tell me what the cheaters who disappeared after the start of this bastard game, selfishly leaving behind the novice players, have something to justify!"

With a disdainful look on his waist, the Tooth King arrogantly called on everyone to respond.

And his words are also confirmed to have resonated with some novice players.

"Hoo ......"

Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Lanzi pulled out a brown booklet from her inventory.

"This strategy book, uncle, you should also get it, right?"

"Uncle, Uncle——?!"

His expression twitched slightly, and the Tooth King turned his gaze to what was in Lanzi's hand.

“……！”

There was a slight change in his face, and he naturally recognized the thing.

It is the first tier of survival strategy guides that are distributed free of charge to all novice players in the item house.

Most of the players survived, and this booklet can be said to be indebted.

"The one who released this guide is the closed beta player you should kneel down in!"

Lanzi's words fell like a bomb in the crowd, causing most of the people to start talking loudly.

A lot of people just know that this thing is distributed for free, but they don't know in detail who actually made it.

"And, please look at the line on the first page of the cover."

Without giving the Tooth King time to 'breathe', Lanzi opened the cover and pointed to the words left by someone on the first page.

"The author of this pamphlet told us at the very beginning, 'It's up to us whether we want to pick up the sword and chase after us.'"

"And this is indeed the case, if we don't pick up the sword, we can also survive on the first layer, but since we have picked up the sword, we should have already prepared the corresponding awareness!"

Looking at that sentence with a somewhat soothing expression, Lanzi has always had a feeling that this booklet must have been made by her sister.

Whether it's the playful opening of the title or the suspenseful multiple-choice question on the first page, it's very much like Yuki's style.

(Xiaoyu's words, he must be struggling somewhere in this world now...... ）

(So, I definitely can't allow anyone to hold her back!) ）

is obviously only a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, but at this moment, she exudes a strength that the adult of the Tooth King cannot ignore no matter what.

“…… It's just a little ghost, what do you know!! Even if what you say is true, it's just a closed beta player, and it doesn't mean anything at all! ”

"Get the hell out of here!"

A little angry shouted, and the Tooth King rushed up as if trying to push Lanzi out of the round platform.

“——！”

Because he didn't expect the Tooth King to make a sudden move, Lan Zi, who happened to turn sideways to face him, didn't react at once.

Seeing that he was about to succeed, and the people around him didn't have time to stop it, a one-handed sword suddenly flew from a distance and stuck it between the two, blocking the Tooth King's footsteps.

"Who is it?!"

“…… If you dare to try her, I'll never get out of this town. ”

It was obviously a very peaceful sound, but it instantly muffled the noise of the entire square.

Tilting her head slightly and smiling, Sirika beside her was sure.

It was the most terrible smile she'd ever seen in her twelve years of life.

"Little ——!" "Yuki!"

Amid the shouts of Lanzi and another caped girl, the black-haired girl jumped out of the stands and walked to the top of the round platform.

(This voice, is even Xiaozhi coming...... ）

Hearing another person's voice, Yuki sighed imperceptibly, there are really too many 'surprises' today.

But that's going to be said later.

Looking at the Tooth King with a very dangerous look, the latter swallowed involuntarily.

"Well, can I say a word?"

Just when the atmosphere was getting more and more solidified, a bald man suddenly stood up from the stands and walked to the side of several people.

"My name is 'Achill', Mr. Tooth King, you just said that the closed beta players left the novice players, right?"

"Ahh So what!? ”

Finally regaining some momentum, the Tooth King raised his voice and replied.

"I don't know if anyone else knows, but according to what I got in the item house, most of the closed beta players on the front line seem to be inspired and are working on the second layer of the strategy, and I believe it will be fruitful soon."

“——！？”

"And even if it's a closed beta player, the website also says that they didn't reach a very high floor at that time, and most players are only a little better than novice players."

"Perhaps, as Mr. Yawang said, there are indeed a few closed beta players who grab resources and props, but it is too one-sided to deny all closed beta players like this."

"What's more, now, the most important thing should be to raid the floor bosses, not to blame each other here."

"That's it."

“……”

After summing up the controversy very maturely, the bald man fell silent and looked at the Tooth King.

"That's it, Mr. Tooth King, I also think that now we should focus on strategy."

Seeing that the situation was almost under control, Diaberu also stepped forward in time to dissuade him.

"Cut."

"I see!"

Leaving this sentence dissatisfied, the tooth king seemed to want to find a step for himself.

But just as he was about to leave the round platform, the one-handed sword just now was plunged in front of him again.

“——！”

"This uncle, are you ready to 'end' like this?"

Looking at the tooth king with a smile, there is a lot of nameless fire in Yuki's stomach now, and it is not okay not to vent it.

Isn't this guy a good choice?

Giving Lanzi a reassuring look, Yuki walked up to the Tooth King and pulled out his one-handed sword stuck in the ground.

"Since you want to make the closed beta players kneel, why don't you let us see your strength first."

"If you can't even beat a 'little girl' like me, you don't have to be embarrassed in front of the closed beta players, right?"

Provocatively saying words that made the tooth king's veins about to explode, Yuki sent him an application for a "duel".

"Some things don't work well, and some people will never understand."

“…… That's great! Come on, bastard kid! ”

Since this is a fantasy world of swords, it is really necessary to use swords to settle grievances, right?
