Chapter 17: Killing Palry
"No one can give an Apidon coin to others without using a legendary item or something higher. The coin cannot be valued as an ordinary coin but is considered by many to be a source of wealth and poverty.
It's a coin that determines the fate of everyone in the world of Pnro. Due to its rarity and the difficulty of obtaining it by legal means, a unique job is spread in the world of Pnro.
This job owner sits on the borders of the Pnro world near Apidon wall, waiting for the arrival of any new players from the newly discovered worlds.
These newcomers, like you, do not understand anything about the world of Pnro and their levels is usually weak.
You are the weakest person I have ever met so far. Do you know that the coin will drop after death? Of course, death here is just a transitional phase and not a true death.
Everyone here in Pnro came from a world controlled by Rioneed, so technically we all are players like you. Of course, when we die here we lose a level and lose all the coins and other items at Inventory.
Any player here came by using one Apidon coin at first. We call this coin 'master coin'. If a player died and dropped this master coin a miraculous effect happens.
Losing this master coin after death makes the player forget all the information related to the Pnro world and he can't remember this info again.
So, when all of you come back here again you will experience the same situation again.
The exciting thing is that every new player, like you foolish Ibro, has nothing above the gold level. That makes my task of killing you to get your coin is risk-free."
His previous intuition had been proven right! He was now in a very dangerous situation.
Although he did not know why he saved him at first and then wanted to kill him now.
It was easier to let him die at the hands of the frightening monster under the tree. Then he would descend to take everything that would fall after his death.
That was a strange issue and a mystery he had to unveil. He wasn't worried at all as once he doubted Palry he took his precautions. He needed to thank this blabber.
Without his continuous talk, Ibro would not have discovered a way to save his life from the fate Palry had just described.
When Palry told him about the importance of the master Apidon coin he had, he didn't hesitate to send a package to Oya. He sent his master coin and the legendary scroll The Land of Fire.
He checked the package statue which cost him 10 gold coins. When he was sure that his package was received successfully, he sent a message at once saying all the information he just knew from Palry.
He doubted Palry and wasn't sure that snake had told him everything about his real situation. To be safe against any sudden turns, he decided to send this info.
If he lost his memories for any reason, he could read this message later when he resurrected at Rioneed. Next time he would come here, he would be prepared for Palry and people like him.
He knew that coming here again was an inevitable fate that he couldn't evade. He sighed in a way that attracted Palry attention, who said suspiciously inquiring:
"Why do you look very relaxed?! You are supposed to be worried!"
Ibro did not answer him directly but kept looking at him and the area around both of them. The tree both of them were standing at was like a giant tower. The whole area around this tree was completely exposed to Ibro.
He took out one ore from his Inventory. He didn't know its features as he didn't have time to examine it.
He also wasn't able to examine the rest of his gains from his last huge battle. He started playing with the stone in his hands while saying:
"The truth is what you just said shocked me very much. I was not expecting that my first visit to Apidon will not last longer than a few minutes. Mirath told me so, but I didn't believe him.
I thought that what Mirath was worried about was that monster. But now I know I was wrong.
What Mirath really worried about was people like you. What I don't understand is why did you bother saving me as long as you wanted to kill me? That question is like a mystery I can't really solve!"
Although Ibro calm tone and confidence made Palry had a little doubt about Ibro's intentions, he laughed and said:
"This is because if the monster killed you I will not be able to get your master coin. That monster is a dummy monster who knows only how to eat.
He will chew that coin and destroy it in its stomach. That's why I saved you. Now you got your answer, you can die in peace"
Ibro didn't bother about his last sentence and said with the same calm:
"That explains what you've already done."
He said it and then threw the stone out of his hand to land at a high speed hitting the grassy ground violently beneath the tree. He looked at Palry who did not yet understand what Ibro was doing.
Suddenly he thought of something that changed his face instantly to show his true fierce side.
"Do you think I'll let you go down so easily to the monster and lose my coin? Try your luck and you will know the difference between reality and dreams boy."
Ibro just smiled and then attempted to jump from the branch. Palry might have realized part of his plan, but he could not guess his entire plan.
Perhaps Ibro himself was not sure of the success of his plan. Its success depended mainly on the element of surprise, which he just lost.
Before he reached the edge of the branch, he found Palry suddenly appearing in front of him.
He was standing in the air as if he was standing on the ground. Ibro faked panic, while Palry features are full of confidence. Ibro's eyes were never fixed to Palry, but he was always peeping down.
As soon as he noticed a strong twitching at the bottom of the tree, his staff suddenly appeared in his hand. A burst of black light penetrated Palry's body in no time, giving Palry no opportunity to respond at all.
The big difference in levels between the two didn't give Ibro the chance to use his skill efficiently. Ibro needed only two seconds! Palry showed a sarcastic smile responding to Ibro's futile attempt.
"Do you think you can control me? What will you do when you do that? Are you going to attack me?
How long will your skill last? Three up to mostly five seconds? Can you kill me in five seconds? This is the most childish joke I've ever heard!"
Ibro did not answer him but looked down. As soon as he saw the giant monster's jaws protruding out of the earth, he immediately grabbed Palry and threw him downwards with all the strength he had.
Palry's face immediately changed color to be pale as a white paper! Ibro did not need to say anything to him other than signaling towards him a farewell move!
Within a second, Ibro had exceeded all expectations of Palry, who just fell in the heart of the jaw of the monster down below.
The monster did not give Palry any chance to resist. Before the end of the Ibro skill, he had closed his jaws making Palry disappear inside his big mouth.
It then returned to continue its swim in the ground in complete silence as if it never appeared.
This time Ibro stood in silence and amazement. He didn't know whether he was happy or fearful.
Before he could overcome his shock and tension from what happened, aloud voice ranged in his ears accompanied by a soft voice saying:
"System Prompt: player officially entered the world of Apidon. Congratulations on player success in killing player Palry.

System Prompt: Although your current level is considered one of the lowest levels in the world of Apidon, given your promotion at the level with such speed, one of the important members of the Council of Mythic city of Apidon noticed what you did.
That is a good opportunity, so don't waste it and keep working hard. "
Ibro woke up from the feeling of fear and shock that he had, looking strangely at these long prompts in a daze. From them, he knew that what Palry told him was real.
The last prompt was a mystery to him. What benefit would he get from being noticed by that council member? What was that Apidon Council?
Ibro noticed the prompts referred to this world as Apidon world. Was it Apidon world or Pnro world? He didn't understand anything at all.
He had to put these mysteries aside first. He currently had no way to find all the answers to the tons of questions inside him.
He began wandering among his earnings from his last battle to find himself had won almost thirty different pieces of the legendary level. It seems that Palry was not a poor player as it seemed.
What he regretted was that the weakest of them needed him to reach the 123 level to use it. He also couldn't use them in the Rioneed game world.
Among the precious treasures that he acquired from Palry, he found a legendary scroll that he could now use.
The emergence of this scroll came to displace the bitterness of his loss of the Land of Fire legendary scroll. He took the scroll out of his Inventory and checked it carefully. It really was very useful to him.
"Dark Storm Scroll: Legendary grade Scroll. It creates a storm of darkness that surrounds the player.
If the player chooses the killing mode in the scroll, the storm will surround an area of 1000 meters * 1000 meters. Duration: 5 minutes.
