Chapter 39 A Hero
Once the other players heard that the person had a level 4 elite friend, the mood among them shifted to boot-licking.
"Oh, you're so powerful!" a young woman exclaimed, her eyes practically sparkling as she clasped her hands in admiration. "I knew you looked strong the moment I saw you."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"You're not just strong, you've got connections too," another chimed in, nodding vigorously. "That's what you call a real man—someone who can lead and protect!"
"Wow, I bet your friend is a true legend," someone else added, their tone dripping with envy. "It must be amazing to have a level 4 elite player as your backup."
The player had a smug look on his face, as he basked in their praise, puffing out his chest even more as he crossed his arms.
"Well, you know," he said, his tone oozing with fake humility. "It's not just about connections. You have to earn the respect of people like my buddy. Not just anyone can call on someone that powerful."
"Oh, of course, of course!" another agreed. "It takes a special kind of person to get that kind of respect. I bet you're super strong yourself!"
Arthur, who had been quietly listening from the sidelines, resisted the urge to roll his eyes. 'This guy's ego is inflating faster than the US dollars during the great inflation period.'
The compliments kept coming.
"Honestly, we're lucky you're here," another player said, practically gushing. "Who knows what could've happened to that poor girl if you weren't around to call for help?"
Arthur slowed his steps, a dry chuckle escaping him. 'Of course. A bunch of busybodies standing around doing absolutely nothing but talking like they're heroes.'
Arthur muttered under his breath, "Yeah because standing around and talking about your friend saving the day is so heroic."
The smug player, oblivious to Arthur's disdain, grinned even wider. "Don't worry, everyone. Once my friend gets here, we'll sort out this whole situation. Stick with me, and you'll be safe."
"Then I will be in your care, big brother," A woman said, acting coquettishly with him.
The smug player's mouth opened to argue, but a low growl from Borak silenced him. Arthur smirked. "That's what I thought."
He turned to Borak and the unconscious girl on top of him. "Alright, let's move," he muttered, leading them away as the players stared in stunned silence. Behind him, he could still hear their murmurs.
"...Do you think we just met a villain?"
As Arthur walked away from the scene, the smug player suddenly shouted, his voice filled with excitement. "He's here! My friend is here!"
"Hehe, that arrogant summoner of the perverted boar is about to get his ass whooped," one player snickered.
"Finally, some justice for the poor girl!" another chimed in, their tone filled with righteousness
The smug player sprinted toward the level 4 elite player who had just arrived, his face flushed with excitement.
The new player that just arrived was tall, he had an imposing figure clad in armour, his sharp eyes scanning the area as he approached.
"Where is the girl?" the level 4 player asked in a calm, commanding tone.
The smug player's heart raced, his mind working overtime. 'This idiot better not be lying to me,' he thought. 'If there's actually a quest here, I need to activate it before anyone else!'
"The girl? Someone took her!" the smug player exclaimed, pointing dramatically in Arthur's direction. "It's that guy over there!"
The level 4 player's eyes narrowed, his gaze following the outstretched finger to Arthur, who was walking away with Borak and the unconscious girl in tow.
"Took the girl?" the level 4 player muttered, his expression hardening as he watched Arthur. His hand instinctively moved to rest on the hilt of his weapon, suspicion creeping into his eyes.
Arthur, sensing the attention, slowed his steps slightly. He could feel them staring at him, he could also hear what was happening behind him, he wasn't far. 'Here we go,' he thought, suppressing a sigh. 'This is exactly why I try to avoid crowds.'
