Chapter 27
In the middle of the woods. A certain player had suddenly appeared.
His whole body was glowing, indicating that he just died not so long ago and got respawn in this area.
That Player didn't waste any time as he immediately ran away the moment he found out that he can freely move already. The way he ran away looks like he was running away from something, he's running fast like he's running for his dear life.
He keeps running for a whole couple of minutes until suddenly...
*Shing!*
His whole body suddenly glowed for some reason.
He knows what's happening, and what's about to happen next, but he's too slow to react.
Immediately after the light engulfed his whole body, he got paralyzed. Or at least that's what happened.
He can't move a single limb. And since he was in the middle of running when it happened, he stumbled and falls to the ground miserably.
The paralyzation didn't last that long and immediately wear off its effects, but it already did the job of stopping him from his tracks.
"... Got some points!"
"... Two more and I'll be able to change class."
"... Hurry up and finish him."
While lying down on the ground, he suddenly noticed that a group of individuals are approaching him from behind. Given by their distinctive figures, these fellows seem to be Players too.
Clearly, if someone were to look at this. They'll surely see the comparison in levels between him and the group of Players.
The group of Players is equipped with some good pieces of Equipment while he had nothing but a poor-looking robe.
"... A freaking inhuman."
"... You're disgusting."
It looks like the Group has an intention to harm him, and they don't want to waste any more time and do nothing but that immediately.
Knowing what they planned to do, he looked back at the Group, hoping that if he plead enough, they'll have a sudden change of hearts and just let him be free. But he immediately realized that that's impossible to happen because as he turn his head towards the group, he immediately saw that one of them, the Guy that has a full Black heavy Armor, raised his two-handed ax and is about to swing it down towards him already.
He just gave up on his ideas and silently accept another death...
But suddenly, before anything could happen...

The Group of Players was suddenly attacked by an unknown entity. The attack was so fast that none of them seems to realize it. Not only fast but strong too since all it took to kill them all was only a single attack.
".. o-Oah."
The Player that has a poor-looking robe, watches his supposed killers get annihilated in a matter of seconds with awe.
After getting attacked and killed, the Group of Players disappeared on their spot, revealing, what seems to be a fellow Player too, who did all that. That Player is wearing a full shining white Armor, holding a one-handed shield on his left hand and a sword on the other hand.
".. A~ Ah... W— Why did you save me? A player you don't even know. A— And why is there a background music?" The Player with a poor-looking robe ask as he suddenly heard Wild West music in the background as the Player in front of him appeared.
"... Saving someone who is in trouble is common sense." Said by the White armored guy while doing a bunch of poses then a bold Text that says... [ JUSTICE HAS ARRIVED ] had appeared behind him.
He completely ignored the second question.
The Player that has a poor-looking robe was astonished by this as he just keeps looking at the man. To him, this guy seems to be some kind of superhero.
But as he was in the middle of admiration, they suddenly heard some claps from a not-so-far distance.
*Clap*

Behind a certain tree at the back of the White Armored Player, two other Players were hiding, at least that seems to be what they're doing, while clapping towards their direction.
One of them has a Humanoid appearance and the other one has a figure that greatly resembles a slime.
"... Whoo~ Touch-san that's so cool! I'm a big fan." Said by the Humanoid one that's wearing some shabby light armor and a smiling mask.
"... Kya~ So Cool! I'm getting wet already!" Said by the slime one in a very childish voice.
It's pretty obvious already that these two are Yuki and Bukubukuchagama. And since this is the case, then that makes the White Armored Player, no other than but Touch me.
They have been roaming the whole edges of Helheim in this past week. They helped some Heteromorphic Players and hunt down some PK parties everywhere. That includes the current happening.
"... *sigh* You guys... A— Anyway, are you alright. Are being spammed kill?" Touch Me ignored the two like he was so used to it already and just focuses on the Player in front of him.
".. A— ah yes, Thank you for saving me. Actually, it's my third time already, and supposed to be the fourth if you hadn't come and saved me."
".. Well, that's a good thing that we are near around the area when that happened."
After all that, they talked for a moment about a lot of things. The Player that the trio had to save was a Newbie. He just started playing the game a week ago and immediately on his first day of playing YGGDRASIL, he was constantly PK'ed by a lot of PKers already.
He also said that he's even thinking of just quitting the game since getting killed a lot is not really enjoyable. Though the trio seemed to have changed this thoughts of his for a bit.
So given how kind Touch Me's character is, when he heard this, he immediately offered the Player to join their party and help each other out. Of course, he asked Yuki's and Bukubukuchagama's opinion too, but all of them seems to be on the same page so there's no any problem.
The Player with a poor-looking robe was so glad to hear this and immediately accepts the offer.
"... Thank you so much Touch me-san, Raizel-san, and Chagama-chan. I'm really glad to meet the three of you here. Even though you didn't know me, you still decided to help me. Thank you very much." Said the Player with a poor-looking robe as he bows towards the three of them.
".. Don't worry about it, we just did what's right, and that's to help all the people in need." Said by Touch me.
".. Yeah~ Let's just do our best to fight off those mean guys that love to hurt our fellow Heteromorphic Players. Right Raizel-nii chan?" Said by Bukubukuchagama
".. Y— yeah, like what she said.
*Cough* Anyway, since they already used all the available cool lines about justice and stuff, and I can't seem to think about some good new ones on the spot... I'll just do the welcoming I guess." Yuki said as he walk towards the Player with a poor-looking robe and stop in front of him.
"... So. I officially welcome you to the team, Momonga-san. Let's do our best together." Yuki said with a smile (emoji) which the Player named Momonga, positively responded.
And with that, another member in their Party of three has been successfully added.
But no one seems to appreciate this fact more than Yuki has. For him, Momonga being on their team is like finally eating Oreos with milk after a long time. It just feels so complete.
So with that, a massive part of Yuki's "Third Reason" has been completed, now, he can finally roam the world freely. He doesn't need to find anyone anymore, at least that's how it is for now.
He can finally play the game normally again.
In these past Months in Helheim, only a few selected PK groups feared Yuki's presence since Yuki can only do minimal work due to him focusing on his "Third Reason", but now that his chains in Helheim got removed, and all of his goals, for now, has been completed, he can finally show why Niflheim back then was the most feared places.
Now, PKers in Helheim can finally experience the true weight of his presence.
The Uno reverse card has been activated and it's now their time to feel how it is to run. How it is to be hunted. How it is to beg for your life.
At the moment, Yuki can only lick his lips while thinking about the things he'll start tomorrow.
But when the time comes, he'll surely make everyone in this world understand what being the World Terror means.
"... Let there be Carnage. HAHAHA."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"... U— um, who is he talking to?" Momonga asked seeing Raizel laughing maniacaly alone in a certain corner.
"... Don't ask, just ignore him." Bukubukuchagama replied with a passive tone while she's operating something within her console.
"... He's just like that sometimes." Touch Me said in a low tone as he lean forward to Momonga.
"... Oh, okay." Momonga agrees. Though deep down, he just don't know what's going on and he's greatly confused.
