Hissatsu Kyuten is a skill for the Assassin job that uses a katana weapon that can deal damage in a short time. It could even strike like a flash of lightning. But because the skill was used at a high cost, draining 25% Mana Points, some players never used it. Players prefer to use skills that deal great damage but can save their Mana Points. They choose to use skills that don't cost much. That was why the skill was only used once—after that, it would never be used in a single battle.
A well-known content creator on the YouTube platform once reviewed the skill. He plays the Evo game with the base of his gaming chair and records everything he does in his activities there. He said honestly that the skill was not suitable for use at the beginning of the battle, which was why he suggested using it at the end of the battle.
He knew the risks if he used the skill in the first place. If the skill is used early in the battle, then the risk is that your Mana Points decrease faster, and you have to use Mana Bottles to anticipate. But if you defend and save 50% of your Mana Points at the end of the battle, you can use the skill to attack or escape.
Also, in his statement, he said not to use the skill and even told players not to use it. Because there was an argument between him and his viewers, because he told them not to use it, he did a survey. He asked his viewers to decide whether the skill was better to use or not.
In the survey, ninety-eight percent agreed that the skill should not be used, and two percent chose to keep using the skill. And you know what, I was the one who chose to stick with the skill, and I was the one arguing with him over the skill.
In my debate with him, I boldly stated that the skill is very good if the user can use it. But if not, he has made a mistake because he can't use it.
I've been causing trouble on his channel. But strangely, he wanted to serve me to argue. Even though he eventually blocked me because his viewers didn't like my presence there, I still have expressed my opinion about the skill that would be great if used by the right users.
It happened one week before I made a katana-type sword at the Blacksmith's shop. And right then and there, I decided to set the skill as my main attack. I just wanted to point out that the skill can be put to good use. I want to show those who have been tearing it down that it is a good one to use. Somehow I could have the intention to do that.
"Hissatsu: Kyuten!"
After successfully slashing the enemy once, and it was right at its chest, and I lunged far past him, I slowly put my katana blade into the sheath and breathed a sigh of relief at having made it through properly.
I looked back after that, confirming that my enemy was dead.
When I looked at it, I could see its HP bar was leaving 0%. I'm very happy because I've reached the maximum point to use the skill, which can reduce the enemy's HP by 100% when used properly. In the skill description, I mean that it can make the enemy's HP 0% if you attack at the right place. You can kill your enemy in just one hit using the skill, even if you have a lower level than your enemy.
The skill has 100% absolute damage. But it is required to attack by using it to the right point. For example, on the enemy I had killed using, I charged towards its vital part, its heart that lies between the chests, that's why I managed to kill it in one hit using the skill.
In this game system, the vital parts are the ones you must protect. It's the same as in the real world because the game reflects that. So, you have to take care of the vital parts of your body to survive your life.
Since the active skill [Hissatsu Kyuten] uses speed on your character, you should be able to hit your enemy's vital parts precisely. Otherwise, as one creator of the content said and the views of his viewers, then the skill is completely useless; it was due to consuming a high amount of Mana Points, which was 25%.
I am lucky to be a man who pays attention to what has been set. I am very lucky to have the intelligence to understand things quickly. Thanks to that, I could come this far, even being a professional player who won an international tournament with my team.
"Hahaha, you stupid dog!"
Well, I can't get rid of it. I was also born with an arrogant attitude. It even once made my name to be blocklisted in my neighborhood.
There are advantages, so there are disadvantages. That's what I've realized all along.
"Hahaha...let's go! I'm here, you stupid monsters! Are you afraid of me? You're a loser. Go home, go back to your original habitat."
Wait, where exactly are their habitats? Aren't they just a system?

"Thank you for helping us. I love you guys…"
I saw Alice hugging the foxes, who were even 10 times bigger than her. She looked very happy as she hugged them and those who received hugs from her. I, who can only see her, can only wait for her.
I hope she and them will always be friends, that she and them will always be good beings, and that they will not kill me because I have wreaked havoc in the forest they protect.
After Alice said her farewells to them, she walked over to me, who was already waiting for her.
"You were great. Even you were able to kill it with just one hit. I was surprised to see you could do that. You're great."
What did she think about me all this time?
I didn't respond to her, just watched her.
Standing before me, she smiled and asked, "So, what should we do?"
"Isn't it pretty obvious?"
"Um? What do you mean?"
"I want to know all about you. Where did you come from, when did you turn into a crazy woman, what do you hate, what do you like... and so on. I want to know about you, Alice."
When I said that, she lowered her head and red cheeks.
"Are you sure you want to know that?" She asked, holding her head up and putting on a serious face.
"I am very confident."
"Okay. But there is one thing I want to ask."
"What's that?"
"If you knew me, would you hate me?"
It was suspicious. She seemed to have a dark past. Even so, since I was the one who asked for her, then I had to accept her request.
"Of course not. I will never hate you… never."
"You promise?"
"Yes, I promise."
"Okay..."
As we stared at each other, I was sure I didn't hate her, and she tipped her feet to level with me. Then, I could see the two fangs on her lips sticking out towards my neck.
"Alice? You..."
"I'll tell you all about me."
After she said that, she bit my neck with her two fangs. I fainted because of that.
Alice...?
