<h4>Chapter 33: - Stupid Tattered Sword</h4>


    RememberMe was about to burst intoughter upon seeing Broken''s level. He initially just wanted to bully him, but now he felt like he might have gone too far. Broken''s level was only 26. He could defeat him without using any armor or weapon


    "I think there''s something wrong with him. His level is only 26, yet he dared to ept my challenge," RememberMeughed, turning to his friends.


    PussyCat, the female mage, sighed. "Just let him go, RememberMe. You''re going too far with this bullying. Look at him; he''s just a poor yer passing by."


    "He doesn''t look strong at all," the female archer added. "Though his Spirit Beast is adorable, I''m curious about it."


    Broken stood with Polly waiting nearby, not yet in her Battle Form. He deliberately held Polly back, wanting to surprise the arrogant warrior.


    RememberMe''s level was quite high at 78. This could be advantageous for Broken. If the warrior followed him for the next 24 hours, he could help Broken hunt monsters and gather enough Monster Cores to feed Polly.


    Polly, a level 97 Spirit Beast, would benefit significantly from Monster Cores of equal level, especially if they had the chance to obtain Monster Soul Stones. Broken''s Bountiful Harvest skill increased the likelihood of such valuable drops.


    RememberMe flung his sword to the ground and dered confidently, "I''ll give you five seconds to unleash your most powerful attack on me. Take a good look," he said, discarding the armor he had been wearing on his top and letting it tter to the ground. "I admire your bravery. Now, show me your best attack," he added.


    "I''ll defeat you without using any armor or weapons. It''s only fair since fighting you at such a low level would be too easy with my high-quality gear. Hahaha." RememberMe unted his arrogance.


    The female archer, Forev, grumbled, "I hope he doesn''t regret underestimating his opponent. What a stupid asshole."


    PussyCat giggled. "I feel sorry for that level 26 swordsman. He''s going to be RememberMe''s ve after this. There''s no way he can win against him."


    PussyCat then said with concern."RememberMe, are you sure of your decision? You are underestimating him too much,"


    "Don''t worry, he is only at level 26; what could I possibly fear? I''m merely entertaining myself," RememberMe responded confidently.


    "But don''t forget, he has a spirit beast," PussyCat reminded him.


    "Do you think spirit beasts that choose a level 26 yer are special ones? Just take a look at that spirit beast - it''s just a little cute fox," he answered.


    Broken charged towards RememberMe with a sword, and Polly transformed into five foxes, several timesrger than before.


    RememberMe was taken aback, unable to defend as Broken quickly got in front of him and unleashed an attack with his sword, causing him to fall to the ground instantly.


    Broken then delivered several additional strikes, drastically depleting RememberMe''s health.


    Polly''s fox forms also attacked, wing and tearing at his body. The onught was rapid and relentless, leaving RememberMe no time to think about how to fight back.


    "Kyaaaa.... Help me!" RememberMe yelled out in distress as his health bar plummeted rapidly.


    Soon after, a loud siren red, announcing that the duel hade to an abrupt conclusion in mere seconds.


    RememberMey on the ground after he was badly defeated by Broken, he still couldn''t ept the defeat, he was in shock.


    PussyCat and Forev ran over, and it was clear from Forev''s smirk that she was enjoying the situation. "I warned you," she said.


    "Did you see thising, Forev?" PussyCat asked.


    "Nine-tailed Fox," Forev replied, nodding toward Polly, now perched in Broken''s arms.


    "Doesn''t it have only three tails?" PussyCat remarked, puzzled.


    "It will, after it evolves next time."


    Forev continued, "I''ve studied Spirits and Spirit Beasts, so I knew this wasn''t an ordinary Spirit Beast. I suspected its level was much higher than its master''s."


    RememberMe stood up, still visibly annoyed. "Damn it, why didn''t you tell me earlier, Forev? This is really frustrating," he grumbled.


    Broken gave the warrior a smug smile. "Now, you''re my ve for the next 24 hours."


    "Do we need to form a party?" RememberMe inquired.


    Broken was still unsure how his Bountiful Harvest skill worked—whether being in a party with others would affect the rate. But he knew he needed tond the final hit on every monster they hunted to maximize the benefits of his skill.


    Moreover, Broken had no interest in spending more time with the three yers than necessary. So he wasn''t keen on forming a party with them.


    "I don''t think so," Broken replied nonchntly. "You just have to reduce the monsters'' health bar to nearly empty, and I''ll deliver the final blow—that way, all the bounty that drops from the monsters will be mine."


    Broken then spun around and headed for the forest without pausing to hear the warrior''s reply.


    RememberMe sensed something was amiss about Broken.


    "How are you so powerful when you''re only level 26?" he called out, trying to catch up to Broken. Two of hispanions rushed after him as well.


    RememberMe, a male warrior, PussyCat, a female mage, and Forev, a female archer, knew each other outside the game. They had been ying Immortal Legacy for quite some time and had be quite intrigued by this increasingly popr game, which was being yed by many people worldwide.


    RememberMe was a tall and well-built man with blond hair. Standing at 1.8 meters (5.91 feet), he was well-suited to be a front-line warrior. PussyCat was a mage with a witch''s hat and a blue robe. At 1.6 meters (5.25 feet) tall, her blond hair gave her an even more attractive appearance. Thest yer was Forev, an Asian girl who was 1.59 meters (5.22 feet) tall, had straight ck hair and was wearing a dark gray archer''s outfit.


    RememberMe nced at his twopanions. "See, he is level 26, but his skill dealt so much damage. Did you see his stupid tattered sword? There is no way the skill came from the sword."


    Forev responded, "That''s because you didn''t wear any armor, you idiot."


    "I''m not that stupid; I can do the math. I''m sure he has a skill with high damage. He is only level 26; his stats can''t be that high," RememberMe insisted.


    The three of them walked, following Broken while chatting with each other.


    "Let me follow him; you two go on ahead," he said, sighing.


    "No, it''s okay; we''ll keep youpany. I think making new friends in this game will be interesting," PussyCat replied with a wide smile.


    "Yes, I''m also curious about his spirit beast," Forev added.


    RememberMe then ran to catch up to Broken and walked beside him. "Hahaha, Master... tell me, where did you get that skill? The damage is so high, it''s like a magic skill."


    Broken, meanwhile, checked the durability of his sword, which was almostpletely worn out. A few more uses and it would break entirely.


    "I''ll lend you a new sword, Master..." RememberMe offered. "I have a level 25 sword. Interested? But tell me about the skill you used to kill me, hahaha."
