Chapter 4 - The Flames Burn Bright (4): Sinners

"Another Living survivor" A random Player screamed out.

"Didn't it just say that the General Tutorial had come to an end?" Another player said, he was one of the very few Players to not be in a state of panic and was rather calm.

"Well, we better hope it didn't." A Player said, he looked as lanky and lean as the rest of them, lacking major muscle mass, but he had a glow to his face, he looked like the tutorial really got his blood flowing… He looked happy.

---

"You have a name!?" a player blared out, right in front of Adam's face.

Adam was startled. The urge to push away the person in front of his face was incredible. It took almost everything in him to not push him away immediately.

"…"

"Kaizer! He's a no-name bitch!" The player in front of Adam said to his peer.

"You should really be more patient, you crude." The happy looking player from before responded.

'You are a whole bald old man talking about no-names. You look like a left buttcheek after a cold bath. Hell, the Ogre's ass had more hair than you.' Adam replied full of spite, inside of his own head, with a frown on his face.

Kaizer put his palm over his mouth trying to conceal his laughter. Similarly, the other player behind him turned around and let out brief chuckles.

Although they didnt hear what Adam said, the look on his now contorted and twisted face towards this bald man in front of him was just that funny on its own.

The bald man Player in front of Adam had his eyes widen. He seemed to be angry about being laughed at but Adam just stared at him holding the frown on his face diligently.

"Everyones a fucking clown at the start!" The bald player responded as he placed his hand on Adams shoulder violently.

"Calm down now, Geezer." Kaiser said as he shook his head in disappointment causing his rather long black hair to shake around like it was wet, in fact, Adam was just noticing it, but all of these Players around him were covered in blood.

The Bald guy had a massive frame but was rather stubby and short, just a little shorter than adam himself, Kaizer was this tall skinny figure with the long black hair covered in blood and his face was slim, he looked like he would be a model for a big brand back on earth. And Finally the one whi turned around laughing, who had the brightest face of them all was a brown skinned very emaciated individual with very long curly head that waved past his lower back. He wasnt as handsome as Kaizer to Adam, but This individual was not even handsome at all.

He was pretty, very pretty, to the point Adam himself thought the third figure was a Girl in that moment.

The bald individual clenched his hand tightly on Adams shoulder, forcing him to the ground and almost dislocating his shoulder blade entirely.

"Always the ones trying to be funny!!" Ben said to the player who turned his back to laugh.

"I didnt even say anything!" The player blared out a cackle as blood trickled down his face. as his curly hair glistened in the moonlight.

Adam was being pushed into the floor by the bald bohemian as he tried to endure the pain from getting his shoulder almost crushed. Adam tightly bit his tongue to ensure he didnt scream or even speak.

He knew he couldn't retaliate because right above the heads of all of the Players around were levels, he didn't think were possible this early.

『Sinner- Kaiser Lv. 17』

『Sinner- Vari Lv. 13』

『Sinner- Moon Lv. 9』

"Vari, let go of him already. They are barely all out yet and you are already at it." Kaiser said to the bald one and he immediately let go of Adam.

"Fuck you, who the fuck made you the leader sissy!" Vari yelled back at Kaiser as he walked away from Adam.

Adam stood to his feet and held unto his slightly sprained shoulder.

The one who looked too feminine to be an actual man, finally regained his composure as Vari started to sneer at him and then he walked up to Adam.

This person is the one Adam recognises has the name "Moon" over his head. And in this very moment the massive green moon was just overhead of this skinny figure, the dim light hitting Moon at all the right angles that made Adam think.

'Surely this is the first angel of the game.' He said to himself, almost falling in love.

"Sorry about the Saitama wannabe's outburst, no hard feelings alright?" Moon walked towards Adam as he said.

Moon was a rather short, dark skinned and dark-haired male, he had really young-looking face despite his friends Vari and Kaiser seeming significantly older. So Adam could only rule it out to be divine intervention that the brown skin looked the brightest in the dead of night like this.

To Adam, he 'JUST HAD TO BE AN ANGEL!'

Adam merely looked at Adam wwith wide eyes instead of responding, so Moon went behind Adam and pulled his shoulder and wiggled it around a little.

"You make really funny faces dude..." He said as he walked and halted beside him.

"Anyway, what's your name, what is your level and who are you affiliated with?" Moon asked, his dark eyes almost seemed like they turned red and could tear into Adams soul. Piercing through his lower back length curly black hair that covered part of his face.

"Whaa-" Adam exclaimed in confusion, as this new convo kicked Adam out of his angelic delusions.

"You didn't hear me? Pay attention Jester, tell me your name, level and who you are affiliated with." Moon said.

Adam looked about and could see name and level status panels popping up all around them, other players were popping up, could they not notice them.

'If the system shows us names and levels, why do they need me to say it. Is there the possibility of someone having a deception skill, This early into the game. I doubt that.'

"Bitch answer me!! Can't you speak, you fucking idiot!"

"My name is Adam Miller, I'm Level 1, I've never played this game before so I don't know what it means to be affiliated." Adam replied immediately, he wanted to try to lie to test a theory really quick, but he was too mentally unprepared for what could possibly happen.

"I see. Red Players from other guilds remain hostile to their rivals even after a reset like this. Needed to make sure. I really don't recognize you from anywhere. And I doubt you would lie." Moon said as he fell over to the floor and let out a big sigh.

Specifically mentioning that Adam should have no reason to lie.

"At least the other players know to keep their distance from us. He wouldn't have come this far just to lie I guess." Kaizer said and sat down on the rough floor. Highlighting Lying again.

"We got assigned to Area nebbia- The Land of the Fog. Its funny how many times we've been forced here." Moon said as he walked towards Kaizer and Vari.

Adam looked at the Three players as they spoke to each other about the area and about other guilds, they all seemed to be professionals.

'They might really not be able to see what I see. This is such a benefitting ability. I don't remember any Walkthrough talking about something like this until people start getting high leveled Observation and Sight skills.'

Adam looked left and right, they were in a damp, wet and humid land, the ground was muddy in some places, wooden in most and gravelly in others, like where they were standing. There was a mountain range down north of where Adam was. He could see the Players all spawning in at the foot of the mountain there, as if they were scared to spawn in any closer to these three.

This Area was the 4th territory in a long curved line that goes in a massive circle along what is simply the edge of the edge of the first Layer of hell which is Limbo.

"Wait, you got just seven Ogres!? I got 13! That has to be unfair!" Kaizer said to Moon. Adam was ignoring most of what they were saying but he picked up on that immediately.

"Well, I just had 9. Strong motherfuckers all at once. It was a challenge I won't lie."

"Nine!?" Adam exclaimed.

"You got something higher? And you are a Level one jester. Damn, the games gone soft, might have to move back to the other anime mmo, haha." Moon ridiculed.

"I got… Just one." Adam said with a straight face. All three of them slowly turned to face Adam, completely ceasing their speech.

"Like One? Just One Ogre?" Kaizer said.

"One Ogre? Are you serious!?" Moon asked, rubbing his chin.

"One single beast at the tutorial has to be a glitch of some sort." The bald one said as he clutched his dark brown level-0 sack robe, which by the way, they were all wearing.

"Anyway, did y'all notice yet?" Moon said as he gestured his fingers to bring out the Green system window and interacted with it.

"What?" The bald one asked as he Opened his Status window and Kaizer did the same.

"There's no Restore basic purchases button anymore!!" Moon yelled out as he violently scrolled through the Windows contents with a frown on his face.

"Deadass?" The bald one asked as he scrolled around vigorously as well.

"Its really not there." Kaizer supported.

Adam looked at the peculiar three and realized he had gotten distracted by seeing other humans, they seemed so wholesome and he just forgot about what was around him.

A quick flash of light from a Large burst of fire from the lake of fire near the horizon really put things back into perspective for Adam.

As soon as that happned a few more bursts of fire spurted out of the lake at the horizon then the "Graphics" of the game adjusted and the horizon was replaced by an actual sky-meets-tree line. Now people couldnt see past the first circle itself. distance had properly carried over.

"I'm really in this damn game, its worse than I thought-" Adam was monologuing to himself before another thing that the three said under their breath caught his attention.

"The Log out button isn't here too, holy shit. This is really real. No wonder this body feels so great." Moon said but his friends just brushed it off without a second thought.

"Damn, the shop isn't naturally available this early in, but there isn't even an invalid button for it. We might actually have to find the basic necessities ourselves." Kaiser said.

"We better get to it then; the Next few tutorial scenarios are brutal as hell." The bald one said.

"The Lands and Player Areas In Limbo such as Nebbia, are very brutal areas to stay at this point in time, we'd be better off sleeping in a Ghouls Nest in a underground maze chasm than sitting here." Moon said as he stood up from the floor, ripped off the Level-0 Basic sack robe and went full commando- Buck naked. his member out for all to see.

"That will forever remain nasty to me." The bald one; Vari said in response.

"Hey, I'm past level 5, that is more dead weight than anything useful." Moon responded as he yawned, put his hands clasped behind his head and walked off with the rest of his companions.

"Hey I'm keeping mine on tho.

"No Log out button!?" Adam tried to understand as he felt his legs start to feel weak once again.

"Oh yeah!! Blue Jester? Just so we don't start off on the wrong foot. The next scenario has us preparing for a battle that starts in a few minutes. The System lies and says the opponents are coming from the East, they are really coming from the west." Vari said to Adam.

Adam turned to the direction Vari just mentioned and it was a large, thick and dark forest of long, dry trees and it had an ominous feel to it.

'This is all so confusing and overwhelming. What is this, what do they mean scenario? Can we really not leave? We are getting attacked from behind too!?' Adam thought to himself until ultimately deciding to do what any normally sane person would do in this situation.

Which was run away from the glaring eyes of the players popping up everywhere, move away from the area the 'Opponents of the next scenario' would spawn, and follow the crazy guys.

"Moon! Can I please stick with you?" Adam yelled as he ran towards the three of them, he could feel the wind blowing up the sack robe and caressing his tenders and it made him feel weird, he wondered how Moon was able to stay naked with quite weird wind.

"Yay, we are low on guild members anyway. We'd love fresh meat. I'll even offer to protect you from Vari the bald weirdo for a slight fee haha!!"

"You look like the weirdo here, you public menace, put some clothes on."

"AGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" A player screamed loudly in the position that they had just left, Adam turned around to see a swarm of demonic rodent like animals flood out and cover the entire body of a Player, ripping out his limbs, his organs and eyes in a bloody and gory way.

"Don't ever run into the woods down there unless you have Plague based items or are at least level 41 Haha!" Moon laughed as he made Adam look away from the death.

"Lets go jester."
