"Don't worry, you brat. I'm not stupid... So, what do we do? Should we kill them?"
Charlotte asked nervously.
She had never even killed a chicken, let alone a person.
But Charlotte understood one thing. If you don't fight back, you'll always be bullied.
"Let me handle it. Stay behind me and be careful,"
Calvin said calmly as a crimson red iron sword appeared in his hand out of thin air.
With the Crimson Iron Sword in his grip, Calvin wasn't afraid of any player. Unless the opponent had a similarly powerful weapon.
Seeing Calvin draw his sword,
Barry laughed sharply,
"Kehehe… Kid, are you trying to be funny?"
As the platforms collided, Charlotte stumbled and almost fell.
The cubes connected naturally,
forming a larger, unified platform.
Bonny sneered coldly,
"Listen up, everything you have belongs to me now, Bonny.
Squat down quietly, or you're in for a world of pain."
Then he cast a perverse look at the nervous Charlotte standing next to Calvin.
His eyes lit up.
Earlier, he hadn't noticed. He thought she was just a short girl with a decent figure.
But now, she looked like a total bombshell.
Even the 38-year-old women he'd been with didn't have a body this exaggerated!
What neither of the brothers expected was that
the seemingly innocent young man didn't cower in fear.
Instead, he swung that strange red sword at them.
"Slashhh"
The Red Iron Sword tore open Bonny's chest in a bloody gash!
[Player Bonny was hit by Crimson Iron Sword. -23 HP]
Bonny's eyes widened in disbelief.
What the hell kind of weapon is this?!
That single strike did 37 damage.
If not for his 14 defense, he would've been dead in three hits!
Barry also received the notification.
She looked at Calvin in horror,
then at the sword in his hand.
"Bro! his sword! It's not normal!"
"Noticed that, huh?"
Calvin said calmly,
then delivered strike after strike to Bonny's body.
Realizing he was doomed,
Bonny swung his pickaxe at Calvin's head in desperation.
Calvin couldn't dodge in time and was hit.
[Player Calvin was attacked by pickaxe. -7 HP]
Luckily, it only cost 7 HP.
But it proved something.
Bonny's pickaxe attacks had around 20 base damage!
"You might be strong against regular players,
but you're nothing compared to me with the Red Iron Sword."
Calvin snorted, full of killing intent,
and with another swing.
He decapitated Bonny.
His head rolled to the side and Calvin kicked it away like a soccer ball.
Bonny only had 110 HP, a bit more than Calvin,
but with the power of the Crimson Iron Sword,
Calvin needed just five hits to finish him.
[Player Calvin has killed Player Bonny. +5 free attribute points]
Seeing the notification, Calvin's eyes flashed with surprise.
Now he understood why the two had attacked him.
It wasn't just to steal his supplies, killing other players rewarded you with stat points?!
But why hadn't he seen anyone mention this in the chat channel?
Soon, he realized no one would ever admit to such a thing publicly.
Everyone's real names were visible in the area chat.
"B-Boss… H-Hey there, handsome boss, don't kill me…"
Barry curled up in fear,
watching her brother's brutal death.
Just a few swings, it was like cutting through watermelon.
And since her stats were similar to Bonny's,
that meant she'd be next and just as easily!
Barry trembled uncontrollably.
Suddenly, she had an idea.
She struck a disgusting pose and threw Calvin a seductive wink.
"H-Hey handsome~ Just don't kill me, okay?
I'll do anything you want. I know so much~"
Calvin and Charlotte were instantly stunned,
their faces frozen in disgust.
That was way, way too gross.
Charlotte couldn't take it.
She stabbed Barry in the head with her dagger.
"You filthy freak! That's disgusting!"
"Ahhh! Help me, Calvin!"
Though Charlotte's attack power was low and her dagger wasn't strong,
it inflicted a bleeding effect.
Barry could feel her HP slowly draining.
Calvin couldn't bear to watch anymore.
He swung his sword repeatedly,
killing the freakish player.
After killing Barry,
Calvin gained another 5 attribute points.
He put all of them into attack.
Now, with 10 more attack added to his base stats,
his total reached 22 without the sword.
With the Crimson Iron Sword in hand,
his attack soared to 47.
Which meant even someone like Charlotte could be killed in just two hits.
He glanced at her. She had helped earlier,
but now stood pale and shaken.
"You've got some guts, little brat.
Didn't think you'd actually fight."
Calvin patted her on the head approvingly.
"Hmph, what do you mean 'actually' fight…"
Charlotte looked at him, exasperated.
Then she sighed.
"They were enemies.
And that disgusting... whatever it was… made me sick."
She looked seriously at Calvin.
"I know what you're about to say.
But from now on, I don't want to be a useless flower vase.
I want to fight alongside you!"
Charlotte said, waving her dagger.
"Alright, I believe you."
Calvin pinched her chubby cheek affectionately.
Charlotte's eyes suddenly darted away,
clearly flustered by the gesture.
But Calvin didn't dwell on it.
He began sorting through the loot.
Stripped their clothes,
tossed the bodies off the high platform,
then checked the enemy platform.
It was a 4x5 structure, 22 cubes total,
which fit perfectly with his and Charlotte's platform,
forming a new 5x9 area with 47 blocks total.
20 blocks were on the base layer,
with one protruding wooden block in the second row's center,
and a control block in the center of the first row.
