Going Into the Game With an Instant Death Skill chapter 1

prologue

“Is there still one day left…?”

Entering the ID and password in the familiar login window, he clicked his tongue lightly.

End of service of the game.

The announcement was made a few months ago, but I felt particularly empty when I thought that today was really the last time.

Rakyronia Saga, abbreviated as Rasa, is an RPG game that I have been obsessed with since my school days and have been playing for over 8 years.

A game that was once quite popular with its excellent graphics, immersive story, vast map and worldview, and relatively novel systems.

Currently, it has been branded as a waste game for a long time, and only the most bone marrow users remain, but this game, which I spent almost a third of my life on, was nothing like my daily life.

However, such a game eventually announced the end of the service.

It wasn’t that there were no foreshadowings, and honestly, there was nothing strange about it when it ended, but I couldn’t help but feel a sense of emptiness and betrayal.

I moved the character to the warehouse and displayed the stored items on the screen. Inventory was also floated on the side.

Numerous items accumulated while playing for nearly 10 years.

There were just ordinary good things, there were incredibly good things, and there were treasures that could be counted in the game. When I put it all together again, many are too many.

It did not stop there, but also turned on the character information window and the skill window.

【Lv. 99]

Rasa’s level system is a method in which leveling up becomes exponentially more difficult as the level increases.

Moreover, from level 80, not only experience points, but also all kinds of difficult achievements were required, so it was also a symbol of the deceased.

At level 99, it was the unofficial max level of Rasa that no user had reached above that level, but now it was just a pity for level 1.

‘I wanted to shoot level 100.’

The stats that pierce the sky, all kinds of skills, and even the most gorgeous equipment appeared on the screen one after another.

It was a flashy character specification that even deceased users could not show business cards to, but now it is all in vain.

I wonder what these pieces of data have been trying so hard to collect and strengthen.

“shall we start.”

However, on the other hand, he moved the mouse, feeling interest and anticipation rising.

I put them all on the screen for my last curiosity.

The mouse cursor pointed to an item in the shape of a box that was embedded in the corner of the warehouse.

[Chaos Box]

A box of chaos that can fuse everything in the world.

It is possible to set as a material anything a character owns or makes up a character, such as items, gold, skills, stats, etc.

Rating: ★★★★★★★★★ (9 stars)

Rasa has a lot of freedom and a strong personality compared to other RPG games.

So, there were quite a lot of hidden pieces hidden throughout the world, and this ‘box of chaos’ was also an item I got from a dungeon I found by chance.

As you can see from the description, the effect was very interesting.

Rasa, overflowing with all kinds of unusual skills and items, had never seen anything more unusual than this.

There is nothing special about simple item synthesis, but this box of chaos was able to synthesize not only the items but also the character’s skills and stats.

In short, there were no restrictions on the type or number of materials that could be set.

‘Aside from the strange things, it’s a good looking item, though.’

However, I used this item only when I got it and used it for fun.

There was a reason why the 9-star items, which did not exist in the game, were only kept in the warehouse.

‘Even if the efficiency fell, it was too low.’

No, it didn’t fall off and there was nothing at all.

Usually, when something is synthesized, something of higher value is bound to come out.

However, in most cases, the value did not increase, but rather decreased.

What is the best way to use an item that goes out of conscience nine times out of ten when fusion is attempted?

Of course, it was nice to play with because you could use anything as a material, and you had no idea what would come out as a result… but it was only worth it. So far.

But not as much as now.

What else could be such a great item to end the play with?

[Set the material of fusion.]

Read from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

I activated the Chaos Box and moved the cursor.

Items, gold, stats, skills, and everything was clicked one by one.

The items that were barely created with a lot of time and effort, and the skills that Heavenly luck could have acquired, were all set with materials without hesitation.

Only then will the fusion be complete, and you’ll be nothing but a level 1 character you just created, but what do you mean? It’s the last one anyway.

‘If you put everything together without leaving any leftover, what will come out?’

[Material setting is complete.]

[Are you sure you want to fuse?]

Soon it was ready.

“ah.”

I clicked ‘Yes’ without hesitation, and at the same time, I wanted to miss it.

I thought they were all selected, but one skill was not set as a material.

[The King’s Soul]

The spirit of the supreme king is not shaken under any circumstances. Fully immune to all mental debuffs.

The dignity and intimidation of the ruler resides in every word and action. Significantly increases the chance of gaining the upper hand in conversations with NPCs.

Rating: ★★★★★★★★★ (9 stars)

Type: Passive

Level: 1 (Max)

Rasa’s unofficial highest level of 9-star skills and items are extremely rare and their effects are all deceptive.

‘Soul of the King’ was also one of those 9-star skills.

[Starts fusion.]

what’s up

I accidentally left one out and it leaked a bit, but it didn’t really matter.

I stared at the box of chaos, vibrating violently across the screen, emitting a dark aura.

Why does the effect seem to be much louder than the original, is it because I hit everything?

A few seconds later, a brilliant light burst through the darkness surrounding the box, and a notification popped up.

[The fusion has been completed.]

[Immediate killing (skill) has been acquired.]

[Instant Kill]

Ignores all effects and instantly kills the target. It can be activated while in contact with the target, and there are no restrictions on the target.

Rating: ★★★★★★★★★★ (10 stars)

Type: Active

Level: 1 (Max)

Cooldown: None

I blinked and looked at the skill that came out as a result of the fusion.

And soon he let out a low-pitched astonishment.

“Wow, fuck you.”

what is this?

The rating is not 9 stars, but 10 stars?

The fact that there was a 10-star rating in Lhasa is a fact that has not been revealed until now.

To be honest, I didn’t expect much, but something completely beyond my imagination came out.

It was even more shocking to read the description of the skill there.

‘Instant death ignoring all kinds of effects? There’s no cooldown or target limit?’

Since it’s an instant kill with no target limit, does that mean that it can be used not only for normal mobs but also for boss mobs?

Even the heinous bosses who barely catch them after struggling for a few hours get an instant death judgment?

‘Isn’t that possible… No, it’s still a skill that hasn’t been leveled before, right?’

I let out a smirk with a completely bewildered face and moved the character.

It was enough to check it out for yourself without thinking about it.

I can’t believe that I’ll be able to acquire such an absurd skill with only one day left to serve.

If I had known it would be like this, I would have fused a little sooner…

roar!

“···········?”

For a moment, my vision shook like a haze, and the world sank into darkness.

I screamed in shock, but my voice was not heard. His body didn’t even move.

Amidst the strange tinnitus that just pricked my ear, and the dizziness that seemed to turn over…

[I do not give up.]

Gradually, consciousness faded.

Escape (1)

dull floor. musty smell of dust.

I blinked my eyes and lifted my droopy head.

“Ah~ Wherever you go, even a sip of alcohol won’t run out, sir.”

The figure of a certain bald man next to me, muttering something with a grim expression caught my eye.

Around them, people in similar clothes were squatting in rows.

It didn’t take me seconds to realize that it was a prison uniform and that this was a prison.

Each of them had thick chains tied to their wrists and ankles, and in front of them, they could even see iron grates embedded in them.

And what else is that translucent blue curtain waving over the grate? It looks like something out of a fantasy… What is that, really?

squeak.

It wasn’t that different for me either.

I looked down blankly at the heavy iron armor on my hands and feet.

‘What is it, what the hell…’

I couldn’t understand the situation at all, so I traced my memory.

I must have just been sitting in front of the computer playing Rasa.

After merging the Chaos Box, a dazzling 10-star skill came out, and then… Oh, yes. Your vision suddenly darkened, and you lost your mind?

And when I opened my eyes again, it was like this.

The post-war memories were clear, but the situation was not clear. Rather, it became more confusing.

I looked around again, narrowing my brow.

“What are you doing, bastard?”

The bald man next to him made eye contact and growled wildly.

I asked him.

“Where are you?”

I was surprised by myself as I spoke at the cool voice that came out from between my lips.

It wasn’t my voice. Besides, a language other than Korean came out naturally.

“What? What does this crazy bastard say…”

He stared intently at the man who was swearing with an absurd face.

Then, I wondered if he would flinch, and then he answered meekly with a sign of reluctance.

“Where is it, on the damn convoy?”

“Convoy?”

“…Are you even dozing off? You’re on your way to Achemon. That damn place where prisoners are graves!”

Acemon? Prisoners’ graves?

As soon as I recalled the familiar name somewhere, I almost reflexively asked, ‘What?’

That’s right, because it was the name of a place that existed in the virtual world, not the real world.

A world in the game that I know all too well.

“Hey.”

“What else?”

“Achemon, is he talking about the felony prison camp managed by the Kingdom of Lognar?”

“Why do you keep asking the obvious?”

“…this world isn’t Earth, it’s the Continent of Lakyronia, right?”

The man was now looking at me like he was looking at a completely crazy person.

“Did you really turn around all of a sudden?”

The man who muttered like that slowly moved away to the side.

I also shut my mouth and remained silent.

Because, without asking any further questions, he seemed to understand what was now.

Including the numbers that started appearing slowly over the heads of the prisoners, including the man next to them.

【Lv. 48]

【Lv. 45]

level indication.

I can’t believe it, but I feel like I’ve entered the world of the Rakironia saga I’ve just been playing in the game.

There was no other way to explain the current situation.

The vivid sensations were telling him that the current situation was not a dream.

‘Besides, this isn’t even my body, is it?’

It would have been nice to have a mirror, but even if I didn’t have to look at my face, I could realize that it wasn’t my body.

The skin color, the voice, the body type, they were all different, and the body itself felt different from usual.

binge? Did you even possess a character in the game? How could this be nonsense?

“············”.

I decided to quickly settle the confusion and organize the situation of this body first.

It wasn’t difficult since we had enough information from the short conversation we just had.

Convoy, and Achemon concentration camp.

As the man said, it is a place no less than the tombs of prisoners.

It was one of the many processes that the main story goes through, so it was a place I knew well.

‘A place where you can’t even dream of being released or escaping, living in harsh labor and living experiments all your life, and then all your blood is sucked to death.’

I must have been possessed by one of the prisoners being escorted to that rough area.
