Jisoo, during his early ages, was much shorter than the rest of his peers. What was worse was that he had an ugly face and a large head so he lived quietly being called an ‘Improper Fraction’. He did not do well in both studies and sports. He even had acne. He was introverted and had no friends. However, he was good at ‘games’. During weekends, Jisoo would play games alone at home when most of his peers went out to the PC room or karaoke with their friends.

He believed that he would only have this ‘game’. But one day, Jisoo was robbed of money by Lee Sungmin and his gang of friends. At that time, the student council president who he felt was too far away to become his friend heard about his situation and went to help him immediately.

That day, he came to the classroom in a daze.

Then, that friend continued to raid Lee Sungmin and his gang of friends the next day, the day after that and the next day after that. One day, he appeared in front of him with money in his hands and said to him……

‘They’re not going to ask you for money anymore.’

‘Ye, yeah. Thanks.’

Jisoo smiled softly. He felt extremely grateful to him. However, it was not a lie when Jisoo thought that it would be the end of their interactions. It was because he knew that their worlds were too far apart. But then, he said……

‘What are you going to do after school today?’

‘Huh? Me? Me, well…… I will play some games.’

‘Oh! PC room, call?!’

‘Ca, call!’

He was the first friend that he had ever made. And it was also only natural that he met Seoktae and the Wild Boar General, Jihye who were always with him.

‘Ah, Minhyuk is bad at games!’

‘Wow. Minhyuk-ah, the game collapsed!’

‘I always lose when I play games with you! So buy me some ramyeon! Keuhahaha!’

‘Keuhahahaha! You’re 10 years away from beating me!’

He laughed happily when he realized that he finally found a friend.

And for Lee Dawoul who mocked and swore at ‘him’ he only thought for a moment about the things he would lose. But when he did the math, he wondered what it would feel like to lose something like that. However, he knew that there was more to him than that.

“Uweeeeeeeeeck!”

Lee Dawoul jumped up on his feet when he saw him fake vomit.

“Th, this crazy shit……!”

“A shameful inferiority complex from something that happened more than five years ago? Phew, you pathetic bastard.”

Jisoo pretended to slice his neck off as he spoke coldly.

“Watch the back of your head in the game.”

He left after he finished saying those words. Go Eun-ah looked at them in puzzlement after she had stopped recording the interview. The other players also started to move around.

“Wow. Locke really lacks tact.”

“What’s wrong with him? Why did he do that all of a sudden?”

“Don’t you think that’s a bit too much even if he has no manners?”

“Ahahaha. I’m alright. Everyone.”

Lee Dawoul smiled pretentiously which lifted the stone that was dropped in their atmosphere. Then, they smiled at Lee Dawoul as they left.

‘……Look at these bastards?’

Lee Dawoul grinned.

Anyway, you’re the ones who will get trampled in the game.

Today was the day of the War of the World Tree.

Both Team Leader Park Minggyu and employee Lee Minhwa were busy. After all, it was the final day of Athenae: Korean War. And it was also because today was the day of the ‘War of the World Tree’. It was the event with the largest number of players.

In the case of the War of the World Tree, the champion would not only receive the title of ‘MVP’ but they would also receive a special reward. However, the super mischievous and playful supercomputer Athenae had yet to reveal what the reward was. She said that it was going to be revealed just before the games started. Not only were countless users interested in this, even the employees of Joy Co. Ltd. were also interested to know.

Not long after, the commentators shouted.

Then, loud roars and shouts broke out from the stands.

A window filled with the information about the termites popped out on the big screen.

“Waaaaaaaaaaah!”

“Booooooo!”

“Get lost!”

“Locke! You piece of shit! Apologize to Player Carr!”

When he heard the booing from the audience, Locke raised his arms and roared.

“Euwoooooooooo!”

This was the Crazy Priest Locke. This was his true appearance. Khan was even walking beside him.

“Hey, come on!”

“Ah, why~”

“Do you really want to be in this situation right now?”

“What’s the situation right now?”

Khan closed his mouth for a moment when he heard his words.

That the whole country will hate you? And that Carr will certainly put us in check?

Carr was a strong contender for the title. It was a fact that they could not forget. However, Khan had nothing to say. In fact, he even thought that Locke did a good job.

“Boo! That Khan person is cheap too! That’s obvious!”

“That’s right! They’re playing with each other. Legend Guild might not be able to survive!”

Then, Khan raised his hands and roared too.

“Euwoooooooo!”

Shit, I don’t know anymore. If I were Locke I would have definitely spat on him before coming out!

And a minute before the games started.

The players began to enter one by one. There were players who appeared above ground, and there were also players who appeared under ground.

One of those players was Carlo. He was frowning. Carlo was a Lv442 ‘Knight of the Sun’ but he was now visibly upset.

‘I appeared with Locke.’

It was because he appeared in the same ant cave as Locke. However, Carlo decided to not bother with him anymore. After all, no one had gained any ‘spirit’ yet. It was better for them to acquire and increase the number of ‘spirits’ in their hands than fighting their enemies from the very beginning. So Carlo ignored Locke.

‘Crazy Priest.’

It was originally a healer class. Carlo had heard about him a lot but he still looked down on him. Of course, his participation in the ‘War of the World Tree’ the best competition for combat classes had proven his strength but in reality, he thought that he did not have to take precautions against him.

Carlo finally encountered a termite. The white termites that were walking on two feet with wings on their backs strangely looked like they were humans too. And they were even holding spears. As soon as they flew towards him…

Flash─!

Clang!

“Kgghk!”

Carlo couldn’t help but frown.

‘Sh, shit……!’

They were told that their level was around Lv440~470 but the attack that he had just received earlier was a bit too much for that.

While Carlo was busy frowning…

Bang, bang, bang!

Sparks suddenly started to pop around him that dwindled his HP down.

‘Shit……!’

He should have paid attention to opponents that have different attributes.

Meanwhile, the commentators were quickly explaining the situation.

Then, one commentator said…

Carlo turned his head. He could see that his hands were dyed red and there was a lot of pressure coming out of his body.

‘Come to think of it……’

Why did Legend Guild let Locke in the field? Legend Guild has Abel, an assassin, and Ascar, the Goddess of the Battlefield. So why did Locke come out to participate?

‘Why on earth……?’

Of course both Abel and Ascar, the Goddess of the Battlefield, participated in different events. However, the most brilliant event in this competition was the ‘War of the World Tree’.

So why? Legend Guild couldn’t be that dull, right?

And at that moment, Locke struck the ground with his fists that were dyed red.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaang!

After eating beef to his heart’s content in Paladi Village, Minhyuk was back in reality taking a rest. He was currently talking to Jihye on the phone.

“I know. I understand.”

After hanging up the phone, he couldn’t help but smile bitterly. He saw an article a while ago about ‘Locke’s Rudeness’ on his phone. He could see the criticism that the netizens had heaped on him. They even made a lot of noise on the TV.

Minhyuk gulped as he laughed.

“I think it would be delicious if I grilled my 3,000 year-old eel on charcoal made from the World Tree, right?”

Then, he stood up.

TL’s corner!

I feel so annoyed because it was Lee Dawoul who instigated Locke but Locke is the one being criticized. smh.
