I signal the girls to follow me and keep their noise down when En suddenly says "11 o'clock".
Reina immediately aims and shoots a beam of plasma in that direction.
!!!!!!!!!

My jaws drop open at their sudden advances.
??
"What? Never seen girls fight?" asks Yumiko.
"... Don't just... at least warn me..."
"If I do, they are going to get away." writes En in a notebook.
Ika nudges me and apologize. "Sorry. it's just, even though we are a team, you weren't really with us and were soloing the whole time so..."
"You don't how much we progressed and discussed before the stage." Reina continues Ika's sentence with a big smile.
True, their reaction time indeed improved and their firepower too.
But then again, I don't consider them as my teammates... I can't fully trust any of them, there's this matter with Reina too which I am suspicious about. Looks like I need to wait for Kozumi or Mino to finally make any assumptions.
Anyway, I check the data in my BOG system and realizes I am not facing off against Joseph or Jacob this time... instead there's this player I'm worried about...
This player may be just an Imposter of Igor but that chance is unlikely. After all, Igor, another gaming prodigy, changed his username on stage 5. If this is a coincidence, I would have already won the jackpot at the casino or something.
Igor... well. I don't know much about him. Information about him is highly confidential and he rarely fights. But in some occurrence, when he does fight, chaos will ensue. Not sure exactly what happened but I heard he manages to take down 1 million players by himself when every player tried to kill the gaming prodigies.
However, the only very obvious thing about him is that he is very efficient and is good at handling both blades and firearms alike. He is also a hardcore solo player who doesn't underestimate anyone and goes all out every time.
and well... every round, 10 teams will be facing off against one another. One of the teams consists of only one player named: Immo.
Immo is the username Igor changed into.
Yeah, I think I understand what is going on.
Since this is STILL BOG, friendly fire is somehow still allowed.
Igor joined some random NPC team and killed every single one of them when the match starts, getting exp.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Igor although values the life of a trusted companion, only applies to players. He technically shows absolutely no remorse or mercy for NPCs as he views them as "Exp Capsules".
"Karma stop dazing out!" Shouts Reina.
Sakura is standing behind me, she seems to don't trust the girls as well.
I run towards the girls and joined them.
-------------
------------
En: Our target, the third team, are probably coming from the left, behind the alley next to the rundown mall.
------------
I draw my Katana and wait for her signal in the group chat. Sakura draws her Katana too and stands closely behind me.
-------------
En: Now!
-------------
I dash out and strikes from below.
!!!!
I manage to slash the nearest NPC into half and Sakura follows up by thrusting her sword which she can somehow extend and pierces through two players.
"Shit! We have been found!"
The NPCs starts to retreat with some covering their rear.
I deflect all bullets away and immediately reach the escaping group with my speed.
!!!!!
Twirling my body, I utilize the momentum and continuously slice through the hard armour and decapitates the NPCs trying to protect their main group.
"It's no use!! These two are monsters-"
The guy shouting was shot in the head by Reina on a tower nearby.
!!!!
"T-There's a sniper too!!!" Exclaims one of them.
"Shit!!"
One of our targets takes out some sort of gadget and throws it on the floor, it explodes and a barrier is formed around every one of our targets.
Oh? Do you think such a puny barrier can stop my attack?
I immediately break the shield with my Katana's Tsuka(The grip area of a katana) and went ahead to decapitate instantly three in one slash.
!!
"This monster!!"
I smirk at that remark and dashes forward to him before decapitating him too.
I go to the shop and buy any Katana and grip both Katanas tightly in my hand.
"Sword art form 1."
I place my arm over another and swing both my Katanas, creating an "X" shape shockwave that slice towards the group of NPCs.
"ARGHH!!!"
Everyone affected by that instantly dies in pain as their body is butchered into a messy gore or loses a few limbs.
Finally, I manage to guide the escaping group into the area En pointed out and Yumiko immediately jumps out in front of the group from a corner.
!!!
"Another one?!"
Yumiko takes out something like an axe and smirked.
The air is getting colder.
The remaining 47 NPCs in team three starts to shiver in both the cold and fear.
"S-Shit!! We can't let them get the points!! Commit suicide now!" Shouts one of the NPC in team three.
Shit!
"I won't let you!" Says Yumiko and she slams her axe on the floor.
Everything around her instantly turns frozen and I finish off everyone.
Alright... That was quite a harvest...
Let's see how much I have now...
I check and realises I have about 9920 individual points now.
... I need more... This is not enough to buy that Katana I want in the shop.
We meet up in a building.
The map this time is a huge city with barriers at the boundary so all teams are only limited to staying in this city. Still, the map is probably 10 times larger than Tokyo so it doesn't matter either way.
Suddenly, En suggested that we split up.
"Why?" I asked.
"To minimize loss and maximize efficiency," says En
wha-?? I didn't expect her to talk.
"Let's divide us equally based on combat power. I will go with Karma, Reina go with Sakura and Ika will go with Yumiko," says En.
En looks anxious, what's wrong...
The girls, usually noisy, now silently nods. Do they know something I don't? Regardless, I agreed.
"Sakura, can you hear me?"
Sakura looks at me.
Since she is my weapon, we are technically connected and I can communicate like this without making a single noise, it's something like sending our thoughts or in short, telepathy.
"Investigate Reina for me and see if there's anything suspicious about her."
"Understood" Sakura replies and we spilt up.
--------------------------------
There's a fight nearby... it's an all-out gunfight between 2 teams.
??
En is spacing out.
"oi."
"ah! Uh... yes?"
En is still talking which is weird, is this even En?
"There's a fight nearby, you rather I do things my way or-"
En points at the tall fragile building beside the battlefield.
"That," she says.
Oh! I did not think of that...
...
I quietly sneak to the building and attach several C-4s to the foundation of the building.
En gives the signal and I set off the bomb killing everyone.
Phew...
...
I return to En, she is staring at the ground.
...
I sigh.
"Oi, En, what's wrong with you."
"No... It's nothing... really, I'm sorry, can you go ahead first? I will meet you at the central abandoned museum." says En.
...
"So be it," I say and leave.
En continues to wait at that location and stare at the ground. After I left, a group of boys show up.
"Hmm? You told your boyfriend to left just like we told you to!" says one of them, smirking.
"He is not..." mumbles En.
"anyway..."
One of the boys grabs En by her arm and throw her onto the floor. "Where's the rest of the girls?"
"They are somewhere..." mumbles En.
Hmm? Who are those fuckers?
I didn't leave and am now peeking from the roof of a building 5 buildings away.
That's weird? Why would En tell me to leave if she knows that I can easily kill those bastards?
"Huh?! Do you want us to tell everyone about the fact that your best friend in school is a prostitute?" Says one of them as they grab En's hair.
!!!
"Kanzaki!!! L-Leave her alone!!" Says En.
"Yeah, I will... If you continue to be obedient and do what I say." Says Kanzaki
... So that boy who seems like the leader of the group is named Kanzaki.
En knows what those boys want in the end.
Their lust is too obvious.
Tch.
I take a dagger and aimed at one of them.
From 5 buildings away, I throw the dagger with great strength. The dagger zooms through the atmosphere and pierces through my target before his head explodes upon impact.
!!!!!??
"W-What?? What the heck is that?! Someone shot a bullet???" Exclaims one of them.
"No, you idiot!! This is a knife!!" Shoots Kanzaki. "Shit which motherfucker ambushed us-"
Another dagger appears and kills another boy.
The group have around 13 boys in total. I killed 2, 11 more to go.
"S-Shit!! Whos the tank here?! It's coming from that direction! Block it!!" Says Kanzaki.
As instructed, one of them summons a huge shield and plunges it into the floor in front of them. He then also erect a few protective barriers as a precaution.
Kanzaki grabs the helpless En and covers her mouth with some sort of chemical inside as she struggles to no avail.
Soon, En loses her consciousness and they pull her inside a van.
I throw another dagger. The dagger immediately pierces through all the protective barriers, shields, killing 3 people at once.
!!!!!
"Oh my God!... What is this strength!! Whatever, Let's get out of here!! Hurry!!" Says Kanzaki and they drive the van off in a hurry.
Hmmm... Even after getting into the van, I can still hear what Kanzaki is saying.
My sense of hearing in real life is already abnormal but compared to my sense of hearing in BOG... My sense of hearing in real life is like a grain of sand.
I look at the escaping van and smirk.
-----------------
*huff* *huff* *huff*
The exhausted boys collapse on the floor in relief when they reach their hideout, an abandoned mall.
They pull En out of the van and tie her up against a metal pole.
"Shit!" Says Kanzaki.
A horde of people shows up in all directions, they were hiding before.
"Bro! What's wrong? Why do all of you look so exhausted?..."
"I don't know. Some bastard ambushed us." Says Kanzaki.
"What?! Then we should find that bastard and kill-"
"No. We can deal with that fucker later. There's no way he can win us when we outnumber him by 109 so we can be a little bit patient. For now, let's deal with En." Says Kanzaki, smirking.
Kanzaki signals someone to fetch him a bucket of water and pours it on En.
!!
"*Ack! Ack!!* w-what..."
"Yo, En. Look around." Says Kanzaki.
En's eyes widen in shock and fear.
"..."
"Hmph... So I will give you two choices here. You either betray that best friend of yours or you betray your teammates in this game. Choose."
...
"Tch."
Kanzaki grabs En's hair and forces her to look at him when she did not answer.
"Oi. I don't have all day, answer me now!"
...
"I... Won't."
...
"Heh~... I see, so you want to do things this way huh... Do you think you can satisfy all 106 of us here then?" Says Kanzaki with a smirk.
!!!
"You fucker!! What are you trying to do-"
Kanzaki punches En in her stomach when she raises her volume.
"Shut the fuck up, bitch. Either you lessen your burden by asking people to join you or you settle us all by yourself, I'm fine with either one."
"..."
...
...
Tears start to appear.
"Fine... Just don't...touch anyone... Not even that guy from earlier." Says En.
!!!!
"Hahaha... Alright."
Hmm... To think En cared about me too.
Kanzaki's grin becomes a smirk as he places his hand out to grope En.
I walk up to Kanzaki and grab his hand to stop him.
!!!
"Hmm? What do you want? You will get your turn later." Says Kanzaki, glaring at me.
As expected, Kanzaki doesn't remember all 106 players he recruited so as long as I'm a male, I can easily sneak into his team.
"I'm afraid you are mistaken, Kanzaki. I'm that fucker who ambushed you earlier~"
!!!!!
I immediately slice off Kanzaki's legs to prevent his escape as I deal with the rest.
"ARGHHH!!!"
"Don't worry! You will feel greater pain soon! So just stay there and wait for me." I say.
Almost everyone charged towards me.
I smirk and within one slash, I manage to decapitate the entire wave of players.
!!!
"What the heck is this?!"
Some of them lose their morale immediately after seeing that feat and starts to flee.
Oh? Trying to run away?
I set off the C-4 I planted on the entrance, killing nearby players and blocking the exit with debris.
"Now then..."
The remaining players start to shiver.
"D-Don't come near me." One of them shouts, aiming his rifle at me.
My smirk becomes wider as this idiot is trembling so much that he probably can't even aim properly.
I leap towards that player and he starts shooting, some bullets did hit me but to no avail. I did not stop in my tracks and thrust my sword into his lungs and twirl the sword around.
"Arghhh!!!!"
His screams of agony fuel my enjoyment
I twist the sword out before ending this with a decapitation.
Phew... Hahaha!!
"This fucking demon... I..."
I look at the one who said that and he froze in fear.
"W-Wait!! I'm sorry for saying that-"
His head is now rolling.
I pick up the severed head and throws it at the rest.
They immediately drop their weapon and kneels on the floor.
"Please!! This was all part of Kanzaki's plan!! We originally have nothing to do with this, he forced us!!" Pleads one of them.
"Eh... In contrast to what you said, all of you were brewing with lust just a moment ago, are you sure you were forced?" I reply.
!!!!
"N-No!! That was-"
I didn't bother and immediately decapitates everyone.
Now, all that's left is the escaping Kanzaki.
Kanzaki is now trying to crawl his way out with only his hands.
I immediately appear in front of him and steps on his hand.
!!!
"ACK!"
"Hey, buddy, where are you planning to go?" I say.
