Chapter 720: Super Liar
Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations
It wasn't impressive for anyone to be associated with the term 'liar'. However, if someone could be associated with both the term 'liar' and 'Heart of War', that would be impressive.
Purple Wind Chine had not only managed to take half of Heart of War's rare materials and exquisite equipment, but she had also managed to headhunt one of his best players – Old Man Power.
She had her ways of making Heart of War give her money and items freely, but apparently, he didn't even get to hold her hands, not even once.
After she thought her job was finished, or rather, after she felt guilty, she took Old Man Power, a celebrity player from the Gangnam Royals, and joined Majin Temple.
Because of this, the public believed that Purple Wind Chime had been sent by Unforgettable Maple.
After Heart of War made all sorts of attempts at getting Purple Wind Chime, including letting Old Man Power go for free, a war between the Gangnam Royals and Majin Temple broke out.
The war went on for about half a year.
Everyone thought Majin Temple would be done, but what shocked them was that they not only survived, but flourished. With Old Man Power joining them, Majin Temple finally made it into the top ten in the second season and accomplished their best result ever in a major competition.
That was why as soon as Lu Li realized who was next to Heart of War, he nearly dropped to his knees on the spot.
This was the real killer; it was just uncertain what her relationship with Unforgettable Maple was.
"To be honest, those competitors were only so much. I'll have Dancing Star Dream show you a few tricks tomorrow," Heart of War promised.
"It's alright. Star Dream was attacked by surprise by Lu Li today; he's in a bad mood," Purple Wind Chime said with consideration.
"Then…then, let's wait until he feels better."
Heart of War couldn't command Dancing Star Dream anyway. There were other bosses in the club; he was only a representative. A competitor like Dancing Star Dream could ignore the guild.
However, he was even more interested in Purple Wind Chime after this.
"Even if you can't find a satisfying job after you graduate from university, don't worry too much about it. You can come work in my guild as a full-time assistant."
Heart of War was even more impressed with the decision he made now.
If everyone teleported back to the city together, they wouldn't be able to have this alone-time walking together...
"I need to think about it. After all, my family still wants… Heart of War, what's wrong?" Purple Wind Chime asked in confusion as she turned around and found that Heart of War wasn't walking beside her.
"There's a Thief! Quick…"
Heart of War was about to ask her to rescue him, but swallowed his words instead shouted, "Charmy, run!"
"No, I'm not going. We'll kill him together."
Of course, Purple Wind Chime would stay; she had already seen the Thief who had appeared behind Heart of War.
How could she run away at a time like this? Sharing hard times together would maximize Heart of War's feelings for her. Although her plans won't be affected if she ran, this was her chance to pick up on the progress. Why wouldn't she seize the chance?
Heart of War was touched indeed – such a good girl!
He had already decided to sacrifice himself to help her run, but he didn't expect the girl to stay together with him in this.

Was she interested in him too?
This would be expected, right? Heart of War was in a position of power and was the guild master of a major guild in the gaming industry. Other figures of authority spoke about him with respect, not to mention, he was extremely wealthy. After so many years of hard work, he had saved up quite a bit, even though this was mostly money taken behind the backs of his investors. He also had a warm heart…
Lu Li had no clue what he was thinking about; he might have puked if he did. He was just concerned as to why his opponent was still standing there after the Stun duration had ended.
Paladins, especially those that focused on the Defense tree, really had a good amount of health…
"Charmy, go first. I'll hold him."
When he finally realized that he was no longer Stunned, Heart of War waved his sword and tossed all his skills onto Lu Li.
Lu Li just wanted to quickly kill him; they weren't too far away from the camp.
Heart of War didn't actually call for any reinforcements. He was too deeply-invested into his character and act of saving a pretty girl; he was fighting for Purple Wind Chime's survival.
Lu Li went silent. Who said he was going to kill Purple Wind Chime?
He hadn't said a single thing since he had showed up. This was a script entirely written by the couple themselves.
No matter how much health the Paladin had, he couldn't handle Lu Li's attacks. Not to mention, Heart of War had devoted all of his energy into his little play. He didn't even get to use his Badge before he fell to the floor, slain by Lu Li's daggers.
The last thing he heard from the silent masked man was, "Have a safe trip, master War. The one who killed you was Lu Li."
Lu Li was never a sheep – otherwise, his childhood friends wouldn't have respected him so much. From the moment he decided to start a war with the Gangnam Royals, he was determined not to hold back.
He wasn't a small figure either, so there was no need for him to be sneaky and keep things low-profile.
"Your mum…" Heart of War spat.
"Come," Purple Wind Chime said as she closed her eyes. If the one who had turned up to kill them was Lu Li, then any resistance became pointless. Her skills had only dealt a hundred points of damage when they landed on him.
When she finally opened her eyes, her surroundings were silent and she realized that Lu Li had long since been gone.
The Gangnam Royals were flung into turmoil because their guild master had returned by dying. After Dancing Star Dream, another important figure had died – their guild master.
Besides this, lots of news had arrived about their players being attacked.
No one thought that Ruling Sword would enact their revenge so swiftly.
After he returned back home, Lu Li proudly passed over his new video to Cain's Left Hand.
"Post this too."
"What's this?" Cain's Left Hand was curious; their game-time for the day was about to finish. How could his boss assign an extra job to him?
However, after he saw the content of the video, he was happy to oblige. Although he didn't participate in it this time, plenty of people would follow his post. This was a proud achievement.
When Ruling Sword pointed at the Gangnam Royals, both Dancing Star Dream and Heart of War died.
This humble, but solid truth was posted as the caption of the post and it quickly rose to the top of the popularity list in the forum. The media wouldn't let go of such big news either.
Countless players in the forum pointed out that the greatest war of the year had begun.
