Misty World: Start with SSS skill
Chapter 171 Class Challenge - Hikaru’s Thinking

Rahul felt that he had misheard so he looked at Hikaru and asked, "What did you just say?"

"I said… I will kill Petron for you." Hikaru repeated once more.

Rahul immediately stood up, and grabbed Hikaru's shoulder blades with both hands and shouted: "Are you crazy? Do you know how strong he is? Do you know how strong his monster is? Do you want to die?"

Hikaru glanced at Rahul with a frown and said in a very calm voice: "I know, but I can still defeat him easily."

Rahul of course didn't listen to Hikaru's words. He thought that If Hikaru could easily kill Petron, then the players in this place would have done it a long time ago. Rahul did not believe that Hikaru was capable of that.

"Hikaru, I know you are probably strong, however, Petron is not someone you can defeat. He has killed a lot of players who came to this place, if he could be easily defeated then the players in this place would have killed him a long time ago, he has no chance to live in this place anymore."

"Hikaru, listen to me, don't act on your emotions. Now that we know where Petron is, just apologize to him and make up for it with your wealth and you can continue to live and pass the class challenge."

Hikaru frowned upon hearing that. Rahul's cowardice did not make him angry, but Hikaru only saw his own image appearing on Rahul's body.

He was the same way before, ready to be a dog so all troubles would go away. Hikaru found it funny, sometimes cowardice kept a human being alive, but they were essentially dead.

Hikaru said, "Are you worried about me, or about Petron?"

Hikaru's words startled Rahul. Rahul looked directly into Hikaru's face, but he seemed to be ashamed of himself. Then he lowered his head. His voice was low but Hikaru almost could still hear it.

"Anyway, Petron is still my brother. I don't want you to kill him."

Hikaru smiled and said, "Even if he wants to kill you and your mother?"

Rahul shook his head: "Petron is just misunderstanding things, as long as I patiently explain it to him he will definitely understand."

"Oh~" Hikaru nodded: "So… how many times have you patiently explained it to him? How long have you been explaining to him?"

Rahul gritted his teeth and didn't answer.

Hikaru continued, "If he accepts the truth, even if you don't explain it, he will still realize the truth. However, he basically doesn't want to accept the truth, he wants to put  all the blame on someone, and that's you."

Rahul clenched his fists so hard that his hand turned white, the previous wound in his palm continued to bleed.

However, Hikaru didn't stop, he continued: "Rahul, do you think we have a chance to return to Earth?"

"I think that not only you, but all the players in this world have realized that the hope of returning to Earth is slim. Look at your current self, you can't even defeat Petron, do you think you'll be the last one left alive in this survival game?"

"Don't get your hopes up, you can't even take care of yourself so how can you surpass other players? Even if it's Petron, he can't return to Earth, his threat to your mother is zero."

"Besides, even if you could return to Earth, how long would it take for that to happen? 10 years? 20 years? Or longer? Were your father and mother still alive at that time?"

"Rahul, what you need to do now is to take care of yourself, do not worry about the things that are out of your reach. I agree it's a good thing to worry about your parents, but your life at Misty World is more worrisome than theirs."

"At least they are living in a world where there are laws, adequate food and medical support. And we live in a world without any laws restricting players."

"Perhaps you only live for today, soon you will die at the hands of your brother. He can kill everyone and if he wants to kill your mother, he can kill her too."

"Rahul, if you believe what Petron said is true, then it is true. If You believe that the place where you were born is a poor place, then it is true, if you do not object to what Petron says, then you accept what he says."

"Even if you were born into poverty, don't let that limit you. If your thoughts are also poor, then no matter who helps you, you still cannot escape the prison of your own thoughts."

After saying that, Hikaru silently looked at Rahul. He wasn't just speaking to Rahul, he was speaking to himself. That's right, Hikaru was trying to get out of his own way of thinking, to be honest, it made him cowardly and afraid of everything.

He was no longer on Earth, he did not want to be restrained by the laws of humanity on Earth, and he wanted to struggle and fly higher.

He didn't want to be his old self. Before, he was worried about what others thought of him, he always wanted others to think positively about him.

However, he never thought for himself. He always lived according to other people's thoughts, he never thought about what he wanted himself.

This time will be different, he will not live according to other people's thoughts, no matter how they think about him.

He wanted to live for himself without being dependent on the thoughts and opinions of his former planet . He will use his power to destroy all enemies, no matter how cruel the method is, he wouldn't care about it.

Hikaru turned his head and said, "I will kill Petron, if you want to see that then follow me."

After saying that, Hikaru left towards the teleportation stone platform below the betting screen. Even the blind could see that it was the place used to enter the challenge space.

That pedestal was only about 1,000 meters away from where Hikaru stood, he quickly approached the teleport platform. There were no players within 1,000 square meters around the teleportation stone platform except for Petron and his two subordinates.

Around the stone platform, many players were standing and no one dared to enter the range around the stone platform.

Hikaru saw the scene before him and knew that the area around the stone platform could kill people. The surrounding players were probably afraid of  Petron and his group of people, so they didn't dare to approach.

Hikaru found it a bit funny, if it was before, he might have been scared and hid in a corner or actively did what Petron asked.

However…

The surrounding players began to gossip.

"Those three bastards want to kill someone, but I don't know who the victim is."

"Damn it, I don't care who the victim is but if Petron stays there, I won't be able to enter the trial space."

"Yes, I also want to go inside, I hope that the unfortunate person can appear quickly, I also don't want to be imprisoned here forever."

"Haizzz, how about we unite to defeat those three bastards."

"Shhh! Don't talk so loudly, there are not only 3 people, Petron's group has 10 people. Besides, they possess very powerful monsters, we are just pure support players, so we can not win against them."

"That's right, you should keep your voice low, don't let the rest of Petron's party hear you, or you'll die a terrible death."

Hikaru glanced at the players, he sensed that no one dared to unite to destroy Petron's group. But he could also understand why they were afraid of Petron.

After all, the players in this place were all support-oriented players, their stats were very low and their role was only to support other players and rely on the protection of other players to survive.

It was because they were protected by the other players that they were co-dependent. Therefore, although this place is full of people, there may be people with much higher stats than Petron, but they still did not dare to stand up to destroy Petron.

This was the Crowd Principle.

In a crowd, everyone thinks that someone else is going to be the Hero and the matter has nothing to do with them.

Hikaru shook his head and walked towards the stone platform. Petron quickly spotted Hikaru among the players and smiled. However, there was some uneasiness in his heart.

That's right, because Hikaru's gaze just now made him feel scared. He had a feeling that this newcomer was not normal, and that he was a little scary.

Besides, seeing Hikaru calmly come to this place, Petron's uneasiness grew even more. However, he shook his head, as he felt that he was thinking too much.

In this place, he was almost invincible. Yes, although compared to the players on Misty World, he was just an ant, but when it comes to this particular space, he was the strongest ant of all the ants present in this place. .

Besides, he had accomplices and they all possessed powerful monsters. Petron thought about this and he felt extremely confident, the feeling of fear and anxiety in his mind immediately disappeared.

"Oi! Newbie! How dare you come to this place?" Petron shouted.

The other players who followed his gaze immediately noticed Hikaru, they were all talking, they felt that Hikaru was an unlucky player. Some people even laughed at him for being stupid, as he dared to anger Petron.

Hikaru didn't care what the other players thought and was laughing at him. Does one need to care what an ant thinks?

Now, too, he didn't want to be like before, he didn't want to care about what other people think of him. He lived for himself, so he wanted to kill Petron.

Why?

Did he want to kill Petron to help Rahul?

No, he wanted to kill Petron to prove that the current him was different and that he was not what he used to be, he was no longer afraid of trouble, rather he wanted troublemakers to fear him.
