Chapter 45: Berenice
Soo Hyuk stared at the corpse at his feet. Its identity was the man who had tried to kill him 5 days ago, Adilo.
“So the creepy stalker came back……”
Soo Hyuk had thought that he had seen the last of him, but the stalker had managed to surprise him again.
‘It was good to level up before this.’
He had resolved to level up quickly after the PK incident, so that he could be prepared for any future incidents. Looking at Adilo’s body, he knew he had made the right decision. What if he was still that weak level 10 a few days ago? He didn’t have Pavian with him this time. He would’ve died, there was no questioning it.
‘Hmm, he dropped something.’
When players were killed, they dropped a random personal item, like monsters. But unlike monsters, killed players didn’t display a drop window. Instead, they would actually drop the item physically near their body.
Soo Hyuk could see a faint shine under Adilo’s body. He hastily kicked the body away to reveal the item. Although it was a virtual world, Soo Hyuk was reluctant to touch a corpse with his hands.
‘A ring?’
