[Are you sure? Is it really a purple-named World Boss?]
In the video, the man, clad in a sea-blue mage robe, held an exquisite mage staff glowing with dazzling blue light.
Every movement he made exuded the gravitas of a high-ranking individual, yet his expression was grave at this moment.
“Absolutely! I saw it with my own eyes before rushing to inform you!”
The person on the other end of the screen was alight with excitement, their hand clutching a longsword trembling with tension.
[What concerns me is… has word gotten out? If other major guilds learn of this, and they mobilize their entire force to snatch it, then I’d rather abandon this boss.]
“Absolutely not! I’ve dispatched all the assassins from our branch guild to secure all the access routes!
However, the fact that there’s a purple-named World Boss inside is known only to a few of the guild’s elders!”
The man’s expression remained grave, showing neither joy nor sorrow, but rather a remarkable calm.
[What level is the boss?]
“I had someone measure its damage; a single normal attack instantly kills all squishy characters, with a minimum damage of over 700.
It should be level twenty-five or higher!”
[Excellent, you’ve handled this perfectly.
I’m adding 500 KDP to your account, and 50 KDP to each member of your guild.
Once the boss is defeated, you can claim a top-tier green-grade weapon from the guild warehouse.]
“Thank you, boss!”
[Report its location.
This boss, we, Sword Sweeping the World, are taking it for sure!]
“Two thousand five hundred meters south of Zhenxin Village, there’s a basin surrounded by mountains on all sides.
The coordinates are (N187709354.E210875214), and the boss is in the center of that basin…”
[Move out! We’ll take it before nightfall!]

“That pet trainer named Tajima Satoshi is really something else…
His pet advancement quest actually requires us to gather herbs in a Level 30 monster zone, and I’m only Level 13!
It wouldn’t matter much if I died, but if *you* died, it would be a long time before we could meet again…
No, I can’t do it.
I’ll come back when I’m Level 30.
Let’s go clear some main quests first.”
Su Yingning regretfully glanced at the pet advancement quest in her quest log, ultimately withdrawing her gaze with reluctance.
“But, Master, I just feel like I’ll become incredibly strong after this advancement…
Or, how about we search the outskirts of the monster zone?
If there are herbs in the outer ring, we could gather some and slowly wait for them to respawn…
If there aren’t any, then we can go back to the main quests, how does that sound?”
I unconsciously shook my ears and blinked my eyes.
Su Yingning pondered for a moment.
“Alright, I suppose…
However, this quest clearly has more than one stage, and even if we complete this stage, there’s no guarantee of a reward.
The later tasks will probably get progressively harder, won’t they?”
“Just try it, just try it!” I urged, practically quivering with anticipation.
“Why do you seem even more excited than I am…”
My gaze darted away.
“Cough… of course!
Because it’s a pet quest!
It’s *me* who gets stronger in the end…”
‘Forgive me, God of Assassins.’
‘It’s not that my faith is wavering; it’s just that the allure of online games is simply too strong; I can’t resist it, OTZ…’
‘This feeling of a world with rules unlike those of reality, yet full of randomness, where you can’t control everything as you would in the real world, but where surprises constantly follow… It’s amazing!’
‘Ultra-rare herbs might be hidden in roadside bushes, the villager you’re talking to could be the final boss, monsters on the verge of death might suddenly transform into enraged, advanced forms, and even defeating the weakest novice chickens could drop a top-tier skill book for a much higher level…’
‘Although I haven’t experienced all of these yet, the turmoil of the previous main quest has already filled me with a desire to explore this unknown world!’
‘Life in this world feels a bit like gambling, but it’s far more thrilling!’
‘Perhaps someday I’ll write a book: ‘The Fall of Assassin 58.’
“Then you absolutely must be careful later; don’t provoke any high-level monsters…”
“Mhm mhm mhm mhm!” I nodded vigorously, my eyes shining.
‘It’s been so long! This feeling!’
‘This thrill of a world brimming with the unknown, battling against the heavens, battling against others, battling against the game’s rules, slowly understanding, analyzing, and ultimately achieving victory!’
“Alright, alright, let’s go~ The sun’s almost setting!” Su Yingning said, sighing as she pressed a hand to her forehead, her hand resting on the longsword at her waist, as she looked at my energetic self.
“Ehehe~♥”
