i became a shadow

Chapter 18 Attack on the First Floor

In a brightly lit tavern in a certain town, the voices of mixed conversations rose and fell with each other. Under the silent night, the atmosphere seemed extremely lively.

Gathered here, all the players who participated in the strategy meeting during the day, I saw them drinking drinks with each other, with happy smiles on their faces.

Most of the content of his conversation is what happened today, and that scene is full of dramatic pictures.

When everyone thought that Duo was going to suffer, suddenly a god turned around and transformed into the legendary unattainable president of the Shadow League.

And the player named Kibao had a remorseful expression on his face, which made people gasp; they could already predict how miserable the other party's end would be.

Of course, Duo didn't care about all of this, after all, who would spoil a rare good mood because of that kind of person?
That's right, Duo is indeed in a good mood now.

At this moment, he was sitting with Kirito, Agil, Asuna, Diabel and four others.

Seeing the characters that only appeared in the anime in the previous life, but now appearing alive beside him, he was both joyful and a little bit sighed.

"Duo, are you sure you don't need to inform other people in [Shadow League]?"

At this moment, Kirito frowned and whispered in Duo's ear.

"Of course, let's not talk about other things. Kirito, you should know that although he is very powerful as a BOSS, the corresponding rewards are also extremely rich. If [Shadow League] intervenes, the allocated resources will be greatly increased." Reduction, do you think those players can be willing?"

Duo looked at the surrounding crowd from the corner of his eyes, and replied slowly.

"Besides..."

Speaking of this, the corner of Duo's mouth slightly raised upwards, confidently speaking.

"Do you think I'm going to lose?"

Kirito choked on what he said all of a sudden.

Suddenly thinking about it carefully, it seems that until now, I have never seen a duo whose HP value is lower than green, no matter what wild monsters are the same.

"abnormal……"

Kirito looked at each other, as if looking at a monster.

Hearing this, Duo had some black lines on his forehead, then he hummed softly and stopped talking.

Seeing the two of them whispering, Diabel smiled slightly and opened his mouth to speak.

"It seems that the relationship between the two of you is very good. I thought that Duo would have a cold face like the rumors. I really thought too much."

Diabel's voice moved the ears of those present, and they all looked in the direction of Duo in unison, deeply agreeing.

"Indeed, when I first met Your Excellency Duo, I was too shocked by that indifferent aura to speak."

Agil laughed out loud, not sure if it was a joke or the truth.

Only Asuna didn't speak, just lowered her head, thinking about something.

"Actually, I think it's okay. I didn't do it deliberately. Could it be because of this mask?"

Duo touched the mask on his face.

"It should be said that the expression is completely invisible, which is why it is so unpredictable." Diabel explained.

"Maybe so..."

With a light cough, Duo began to look at the other party again.

Who would have thought that the guy in front of him, who organized the players to attack the boss, would be a beta tester?
However, it was precisely because of the experience during the beta test period that he killed himself.

Duo, who was thinking so, looked up and saw the happy smiles of the crowd, pondered for a moment, and then opened his mouth.

"Tomorrow we will attack the boss, how are you preparing?"

The sudden words suddenly sounded, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then Diabel replied in an extremely confident tone.

"Don't worry, according to the BOSS information provided by others, it will be very smooth, this game of death will end sooner or later!"

Looking at Diabel, who was full of confidence and bold words, Duo's mouth twitched for a moment.

Brother, are you too confident?How do I remember that you were hacked to death by the BOSS.

Rubbing his temples, Duo said again.

"Be careful when sailing for thousands of years. Don't trust the data during the beta test. You must know that among the 2000 people who died, beta testers were not in the minority. The main reason is greed."

Duo took a deep look at him and stopped talking.

Diabel was obviously taken aback, then he forced a smile and started to drink.

Although I don't know why Duo suddenly said this, but the people present still nodded, their faces full of seriousness.

Kirito, on the other hand, was surprised and his eyes were full of doubts.

For as long as a month, even if Kirito didn't fully understand Duo's personality, he still knew the basics of his character.

Such a person who likes waves, actually told himself to be careful, it's not too much.

Duo was naturally aware of Kirito's expression, and he gave him a hard look, and then he smiled embarrassingly.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Kirito raised the wine glass in his hand and said.

"Then how about having a drink so that we can start tomorrow?"

When everyone heard the words, they raised their glasses without any hesitation, except of course the two of them.

One is Asuna, who is silent and wearing a cloak; the other is Duo wearing a mask.

Seeing that everyone drank it all in one gulp, Duo couldn't help lowering his head.

oops!How embarrassing!

"Ahem, I wear a mask just to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Duo smiled lightly, touched the mask on his face with his slender fingers, and slowly took it off.

After seeing Duo's true face clearly, several people at the table opened their mouths involuntarily, including Asuna.

"so beautiful……"

All that remained in my mind was a voice that kept echoing.

Her long, jet-black hair hung over her shoulders, and there seemed to be a smile in her cherry red eyes.

He picked up the wine glass next to him, his face was a little rosy, and he said to Asuna.

"How about a drink?"

Seeing Duo's hazy eyes and pure face, her somewhat numb heart had ripples at this moment.

So she smiled happily, and said in a very gentle voice.

"Okay, sister..."

Duo: emmmmmmm
Today is destined to be an unforgettable night, no matter who it is.

……

The next day, all the players had already gathered in one place, looking at the tall and cold door in front of them, everyone held their weapons tightly, for fear of falling.

The Duo five standing in the front also stared at the oppressive stone gate with solemn expressions. The bonfires on both sides shone on the dark walls, revealing a gloomy look.

Maybe it's because Duo is a "girl" like himself, or maybe it's other reasons, the distance between Asuna and him is only five centimeters, as if they are about to stick.

Diabel let out a heavy breath, and when he saw that most of the people had arrived, he shouted loudly.

"All players are ready to fight, our mission is to defeat the boss and go to the next floor!"

The voice fell to the ground, and the crowd suddenly boiled.

"Hit the boss!"
