Chapter 62
The Big Picture.
Just as the sudden appearance of the Specter forced a lull in the fighting among players, chaos erupted again with Seowoon and his group's unexpected intervention.
Three players were killed before they could even react, shattering the fragile balance of power.
In front of them, a revived Wraith was closing in; to the side, hostile players lingered; and from behind, Seowoon's group had arrived. They were now surrounded.
That's when someone stepped forward, bellowing like thunder, and blocked Seowoon's path.
"You cowardly bastard with no sense of honor!"
The player who hurled a heavy-looking spear was someone Seowoon had seen before.
—Shwaaak! Thud!
The spear came flying toward Seowoon's chest, but he deflected it with a clean blow. It veered off course—and to his surprise, it boomeranged straight back into its owner's hand.
"Honor? Cowardice? Then what kind of 'honor' does someone know who launches ambushes at the entrance?"
Seowoon's retort left the man speechless. His face tightened, and he charged in.
