Closed Beta That Only I Played Chapter 214
Advertisement
Of course, I didn't know why such a message rang at this particular time. Given its contents, it should have sounded right away much earlier.
For example, it should have rang the moment I was cursed by the Oizuki Brother's items and skills or when my 59% debuff resistance from the Forgotten Hero's Cloak and my 9 titles did not apply to them.
However, their traits were not restrained by my 59% debuff resistance perhaps because they were not simple debuffs.
Instead, the message about such exceptions rang only now long after I was humiliated.
I really thought it was really unfair that the message rang so late.
Was it a systematic error? Or purposeful delay?
Anyway, until this message came up, I was ruthlessly beaten up without even being able to resist. So, if the administrator were next to me, I wanted to seize him by the collar and yell at him.
Unfortunately, there was no one who had seen the administrator.
Therefore, I needed to look for the scapegoat for my resentment, and there were two perfect targets in front of me. They were none other than the Oizuki brothers.
I didn't look for them just because of my resentment.
Honestly, I was envious of them.
I have met many people with unique abilities, but none of them were more extraordinary than the Oizuki brothers. It was natural that I wanted their traits too.
Anyway, I charged at them with mixed feelings of envy, anger and resentment.
"Blink!"
Puck!
"Kheeeeeeeeek!"
I was equipped with only the +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword.
But that was enough. Besides, my attack didn't end there.
Unlike skills, I could swap items.
So, I replaced the +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword with the functional skill ring right away, and shouted, "Ice Field! Blizzard!"
Pasasasak!
Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!
"Damn it! Double Blink!"
When attacked, the younger brother Oitsuki, who had the trait of Skill Master, escaped out of the striking range of Ice Field and Blizzard using Double Blink.

"Call Oizuki!"
Shunuuuuug-
His older brother Oizuki, who was clearly near me, disappeared in an instant.
Then he immediately reappeared next to his brother.
"Whew! Sure, I know you are a Skill Master. Just use up all your skills!"
Since I was already surprised enough, I wasn't surprised at all by the younger brother's ability to summon his elder brother right next to him from where he was in the center of my BLizzard's striking range.
So, I quickly removed the functional skill ring and equipped the +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword.
At that moment the Oizuki brothers, who had escaped from my attack range, spat out some words.
"How could you attack us?"
"How come you can use not only items but also skills? You couldn't do anything until now, Asirante!"
I could see the shock on their faces that they could not hide at all. They were obviously startled.
So, placing my +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword over my shoulders, I opened my mouth with a swagger, for the best consideration for the enemy who got confused was to confuse them even further.
"I just pretended to have suffered from your attack because you were so happy. You guys didn't take my words at face value, right"
Of course, it was a lie.
Until a moment ago I was swearing deep down because I could not have traits as good as theirs despite the fact that I was the only 3rd Closed Beta max level achiever.
However, I did not have to reveal my frustration to the Oizuki brothers, so I replied arrogantly. "Don't lie to us!"
"Asirante, you definitely could not resist our attack! And your frowning clearly showed you were just defenseless."
Given the Oizuki brothers' reaction, my lying strategy didn't seem to have worked.
However, I had clear evidence to refute their reply, so I responded by flourishing the +5 Enhancement Ice Emperor's guardian sword on my shoulder.

"Then, isn't this weapon an item? What about Ice Field right here on the ground? Isn't it my skill?"
"..."
"..."
Only then did the Oizuki brothers stop responding.
But it wasn't my goal to silence them, so I opened my mouth again while gesturing with my hands.
"By the way, aren't you going to charge at me? You guys liked to attack me so much a little while ago, didn't you?"
Of course, I could charge at them first. Honestly, I was going to do so until I chose Blink right after Ice Field and Blizzard.
However, when my anger and resentment welling up from deep down subsided and I regained composure, I thought twice about showing them my Blink with zero cooldown, for it was such a scam skill that nobody could catch or stop me.
That was why I hid the skills from everybody except for my family until now, and I decided to disclose it after I achieved at least level 1200.
When I reach that level, I would be strong enough not to be bothered by the obstruction of those who were jealous of me.
Anyway, I spat out some words as if to provoke them.
In the central battlefield where the fight between both sides stopped.
Although the Oizuki brothers restrained Asirante magnificently, they could not laugh heartily because he held out so well even with his items and skills gone just like an immortal.
However, since Asirante could not properly counterattack, the Oizuki brothers relentlessly kept attacking him. They were about to shout victoriously when his face turned more and more gloomy over time, but he then took out the weapon all of a sudden.
In particular, Oizuki, who possessed the trait "Item Master," was all the more embarrassed because he had never seen anybody cursed by his skill manage to equip an item.
So, Oizuki even thought that perhaps the six hours that his trait applied for had finished somehow
However, less than an hour has passed since he began to confront Asirante.
But he became even more surprised because Asirante also used skills in addition to the item.
As a result, his younger brother Oitsuki, who possessed the trait Skill Master, was also confused.
Their traits' curses were broken at the same time on the same day.
Of course, they still had other things to rely on because their traits as Item Masters and Skill Masters were very diverse.
But the problem was that their curses, which they believed were invincible, were broken by Asirante. So they launched all kinds of attacks as much as they could to try to kill him.
But he withstood such attacks, and they had no choice but to get cold feet when they watched him making a 'come at me' gesture for another attack as if all their efforts until now was a big joke.
In particular, the older brother Oizuki was stabbed by Asirante's weapon, and he even briefly suffered from the Ice Field and Blizzard attacks, so he was even more afraid to resume attacking Asirante.
Although he was proud that he had better defense power than anyone else since he could synchronize his defensive armor, not to mention his weapons,, he had to admit that Asirante's attack was overwhelming beyond any comparison.
In particular, there was still a block of ice stuck to his side after being attacked by Asirante, which he tried to remove by hand but failed.
In the end, the Oizuki brothers helplessly looked at Asirante without daring to move recklessly.

The Triumphs and Tribulations of Kai Jameson
Kai Jameson is an average everyday young man. He still lives at home with his parents after having just graduated from college. He loves playing video games and his job at the local Buy More is tolerable. Of course that all changes the moment the system arrives and the Earth is connected to the Nexus. Turns out Kai was trapped in time for about eighteen months while the people already here got a headstart on him. He lucks into being rescued by some people from a town called Donnyton and learns that if he wants to survive in this New Earth he'll have to work harder than ever before. The rewards are worth it. This is Kai's story, the moments of his triumphs, and the moments when he feels that things couldn't possibly be worse. Thanks to puddles4263 and his story The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound for the inspiration on the world this is set in. If you have never read that I highly recommend it, and if you have read it and enjoyed that story then I hope you'll enjoy mine as well. This is the first story I'm ever putting out for public consumption so reader beware on that. Any constructive criticism is always appreciated, simply leaving a half star review tells me that you're a moron who doesn't know how to use words. I'm constantly trying to improve my writing and feedback and criticism on what works and what doesn't is the only way to do that at the point I feel I am at. Last, I just marked all the content warnings because you never know where a story will take you and I don't want to exclude anything (though there will never be a harem). I am going to release 1-2 chapters per week on Fridays. Thanks and enjoy.
