On the S.W. Divine Temple, Zhang Ying Hao was watching the footage on the screen and whistled.

“From start to finish, he used a total of only 2 seconds, now that’s art” he rubbed his chin and praised.

“Art? He kills without batting so much as an eyebrow, and you call that art?” Liao Xing retorted.

“Then what do you call it?”

“I feel it’s a bit like cutting fruit, just look, one slice and juice spills everywhere” Liao Xing had an excited look on his face as he says that.

“…I may be an assassin organization’s boss, but you’re crazy”

“Correction, I am a scientist” Liao Xing then thought of something, then asked: “What about him? What does he do originally?”

“A student? No wait, a professor I think? That can’t be it either, I’ve never seen him teach a single class” Zhang Ying Hao answered a bit uncertain.

[Sir Gu Qing Shan is the Confederate’s Highest Leader] Impartial Goddess’ voice was heard.

Liao Xing and Zhang Ying Hao exchanged glances and shrugged.

“Not good… I really have to make a choice here…” Liao Xing muttered.

In front of the dojo.

[Ting]!

[A successful kill, received 10 Soul Points. Current Soul Points: 10]

Looking at the Soul Points he just gained, Gu Qing Shan felt better right away.

Shaking off the blood on his sword, he said: “Sorry about that, seems like your ears can’t evolve just yet”

Ye Fei Li just stood there, stunned for a few seconds before his mind caught up with what had just happened.

All he saw was that Gu Qing Shan swung his sword, then the man disappeared, then Gu Qing Shan disappeared with him.

When the man reappeared, Gu Qing Shan also appeared where he was and the sword was still swinging forward.

Seeing that, the man couldn’t help but disappear and reappear somewhere else.

But Gu Qing Shan still followed, caught up, and lopped off his head with a single strike.

Everything happened so quickly that Ye Fei Li didn’t even have the time to react.

He said begrudgingly: “Fine, this guy is too slippery, I can’t catch up”

“For you” Gu Qing Shan threw the head to Ye Fei Li and turned to leave.

“Where are you going?” Ye Fei Li asked.

“To watch your live broadcast” Gu Qing Shan answered.

“My ears ——you have to think of a way for me alright?” Ye Fei Li yelled from behind.

Gu Qing Shan waved his hand and disappeared at a street corner.

Ever since the end of the Game of Eternal, countless people on the planet were waiting with bated breaths.

A few even put their Holo-Brains on the table, specifically waiting for ‘that’ to happen.

Time passed by.

Their Holo-Brains were still silent.

Everyone breathed out from relief.

Seems like, someone really did achieve eternal life this time.

———and no one saw him, no one knows who he was.

To be able to enjoy eternal life in secret, such a thing…

While everyone was thinking that, their Holo-Brains suddenly lit up.

On the planet, every device that could project a screen all lit up automatically.

Screens projected from the Holo-Brains.

And the Murder Clown appeared on the screen again.

It was carrying a headless body in a princess cradle.

The body was bare to the bone, wearing a pair of black combat boots, the only thing missing was the head.

Seeing such an indescribably eerie sight, everyone held their breaths.

The Murder Clown started to speak.

[Hello everyone, I am your faithful servant, the harvester of your lives and the source of your fears]

[You can call me the Murder Clown]

[I once told you, anyone that joins the Game of Eternal, will only have the single fate of death waiting for them]

The Murder Clown looked at the headless skeleton in its arms and whimpered.

It spoke with a melancholic tone: [Why wouldn’t you listen, why do you insist on being naughty and play that game]

After saying so, it grabbed the boots, let go of the skeleton and shook.

The skeleton got separated and fell down in pieces.

The only thing left in the Clown’s hands were the black boots.

The Clown then looked around as if looking for something with its stiff and eerie smile.

Finally, it looked down at its own hands and said as if shocked: [Ah? Where did these boots come from?]

It raised the boots up, making sure to show every detail of it to the screen.

[Ah, such a nice pair of boots…]

The Clown spoke happily, then started to clumsily put them on.

Its feet were clearly a large Mech armor, yet the boots automatically became bigger and easily covered it.

[Not bad, not bad]

The Clown wore the boots and walked around in the air in a funny manner.

Suddenly, the Clown stared at the screen and lowered its voice: [I heard this pair of boots can change appearance at will?]

It slowly pointed its finger at the boots, as if shy.

[Give me a pair of red shoes]

The boots became red.

[No, no, no, I changed my mind, I want a pair of red AND gold shoes]

The red boots turned into a pair of two-colored shoes.

[Then, how about if I wanted a pointy tip shoes]

The tip of the shoes started to extend, then finally turned into a pair of large, noticeable pointy tipped shoes.

The Murder Clown used both hands to cover its mouth, acting surprised.

It suddenly laughed in frenzy and happily declared: [Because someone joined the Game of Eternal, the Clown got a new pair of shoes!]

It raised its foot up, making sure everyone can clearly see the shoes it was wearing.

[Game of Eternal, can you see this?]

[A Masquerade ball, what a wild game you’re playing]

The Clown laughed while speaking.

At this moment, the little bit of hope everyone had in their minds got shattered.

Quite a few witty people had the same thought.

—–the Game of Eternal had done such a strict job of security; the Murder Clown couldn’t possibly have found the real winner.

It’s possible that the Clown only used a random skeleton to scare everyone.

But now that they saw the miraculous pair of shoes, the reward of the champion, they had no doubt that the pile of bones he randomly threw on their ground just before was also the dead champion’s.

What the fuck, they have been hidden so well, yet the Murder Clown was still able to find and kill the winner.

That’s just too eerie.

There are no explanations for this.

On the screen, the Murder Clown spoke with a very sincere tone:

[It’s a nice pair of shoes, but I think I want a bit more]

[Maybe, there are a few more people willing to enter the Game of Eternal and bring me back some more trinkets?]

[Your end will be the same as all the other champions, but rest assured, I will treasure your reward very dearly]

Saying so, the Murder Clown suddenly made a grand gesture and lightly bowed.

After bowing, the Clown burst into laughter as he ascended into the air, disappearing between the clouds.

It was when its body had completely disappeared that all the Holo-Brains and broadcasting devices on the planet stopped at the same time.

A moment of silence.

Then the people began to react.

A man was staring blankly at his Holo-Brain, then sighed: “Alright, eternal life is nothing but a trap, I’m not going to join that Game of Eternal”

Opposite of him, his wife broke into tears and hugged him tightly: “We don’t need eternal life, I’ll be happy just being safe with you”

The man patted his wife on the back, feeling that he’s more relaxed than ever before.

He muttered: “Don’t worry, that monster is too frightening, I think any normal person would also give up”

“It’s possible that they were on the same side from the very beginning”
