Please Do Your Debauchery After You Die - Chapter 151

Episode 151: The Returned Purge Day (2)

Looking at Mist’s character, it’s clear that they are thoroughly prepared.

A mineral shining with a sparkling violet hue enveloping the entire body.

It was the ‘Netherite’ equipment, which can be said to be the strongest in the Minecraft version supported by Lena World.

It’s top-spec gear that can be considered one tier above Diamond.

To be honest, while the terminology sounds grand, the actual difference isn’t that significant.

For example, comparing the attack power of a Diamond sword and a Netherite sword, they only differ by 1, with respective values of 7 and 8.

However, once we move to the realm of ‘DPS,’ or damage per second, the meaning changes a bit.

While the difference may be just ‘1’ with a single attack, it can accumulate to a significant gap over time.

In comparison, the armor specifications were exactly the same.

The only advantages of the Netherite armor are its resistance to knockback, higher durability, and its inability to melt in lava.

“And above all, it looks stylish. Honestly, the color of the Diamond armor set is so tacky. It’s easy to acquire, so you see a lot of people wearing it.”

Look around.

Everyone and their dog was wearing at least a set of Diamond armor.

But only a select few, including myself and Mist, along with Mayo, Endyu, and Oh-ha, wore the subtly glowing Netherite set.

In this situation, it truly felt like a symbol of extreme skill.

Just from looking at us, it seemed to exert pressure, causing those in Diamond armor to subtly distance themselves.

“Last week, you were lucky. You should know that.”

“Do you realize how pathetic it sounds when you say that yourself?”

Even though they are older than me, they are using informal speech without permission!

I could retort, but it would just make me appear mean.

In this case, it might be best to passively accept the informal language and make the other feel old-fashioned.

“Ha! Do you really think you can beat me with the same equipment? Really?”

“Come on! It’s not the same equipment. I obtained mine through my own effort, while Mist got theirs through donations.”

“……”

Mist seemed momentarily at a loss for words, as if hit right on target.

Sensing the unusual atmosphere, the other streamers around began to widen the distance from us.

I shot a quick glance at Mayo to signal them to execute the plan well.

“Uwaaaa!”

“Ahhhhh!”

The signal from Mr. Lena had already been given.

The streamers who had been cautiously observing quickly dashed towards each other, swinging their weapons.

Amidst the noise, Mist’s voice broke through.

“Let’s see if you still have that confidence after losing that equipment!”

They charged without giving me a chance to respond.

Basically, we were currently using the same specs.

Our Netherite swords fiercely hammered against each other’s armor.

“You tasted my sword ‘You’re pathetic’ last time, right? How does it feel?”

Even while swinging our swords, the verbal exchange didn’t stop.

As we fought fiercely, the viewer count climbed.

Kim Hak-do did not participate today due to scheduled content, and Mr. Young-jun, being a newbie, hadn’t made much of a mark, so all attention was focused on us now.

“This time, it’s my turn to show you. With my sword ‘Murky Education Sword’.”

“Come on! That’s so lame. Why not come up with a more creative name?”

“Uwaaa!”

Having taken a solid hit, Mist charged in like an enraged bull.

After a powerful blow that slammed into my armor, they took a backstep.

And smoothly switching weapons like flowing water, an arrow shot hit my helmet.

Fwhoosh–!

“Huh?!”

It was a bow imbued with the enchantment ‘Ignition.’

Flames erupted, obscuring a portion of my forward vision.

The distance that had existed until a moment ago was now warped.

Ding ding ding–!

“Where do you think you’re running off to?!”

The balance of power that had been tense shifted suddenly.

Desperately attempting to conserve my health, I swung my sword in an invisible spot to deter Mist’s approach.

And I tried to buy time until the fire went out.

But Mist was far from easy.

As a Minecraft expert, they accurately grasped my situation and charged in wildly.

There wasn’t even a moment to switch to wings.

If I tried to control my armor at that moment, Mist’s follow-up attack would likely aim for my weak points, taking advantage of my drastically reduced defense.

It was a dangerous gamble with only half my health remaining.

“Keep acting like last time! Huh?”

Mist, who was getting excited from gaining the upper hand, pressed aggressively.

Seeing that, I chuckled.

In fact, the ‘Ignition’ was not something I had intended, but the situation was unfolding exactly as planned.

“Don’t use such strong words. It makes you look weak.”

“What?!”

I shot back a powerful verbal jab that was a quote from a popular meme on the internet.

I could bet that you didn’t need to watch the stream to know.

I could imagine exactly how red Mist’s face would turn on camera.

Sure enough, Mist’s words and actions became more abrasive.

Though they were earnestly munching on ratatouille, if a series of critical hits occurred, their life would be at stake.

Even in that crisis, I remained cool-headed and timed my actions, opting to consume a different item instead of ratatouille.

Glug, glug–!

Unlike the previous food, I was now holding a small glass vial in my hand.

Mist, who was entirely unaware of the difference due to their heightened excitement, felt the effect manifest immediately.

The HP gauge surged in an instant to ‘♥♥♥♥(8).’

It was the effect of the ‘Healing Potion II.’

But that wasn’t all.

The potions I drank subsequently showed ‘Buff’ status in the upper left corner of the screen.

‘Strength Potion II’ increased my melee damage by ‘♥♥♥(6),’

And ‘Swiftness Potion II’ boosted my movement speed, sprinting speed, and jump distance by 40%.

Deliberately, I stood still to take Mist’s hit head-on.

“What, what is this?!”

Mist was soon in shock.

They clearly calculated that I should have been dead with that attack but seeing me still standing was reason enough.

Then, as if noticing something, they took a few startled steps back.

“Oh, how unfortunate for you, a mere commoner born in the same era as me.”

“Are you seriously brewing potions already?! No, that’s cheating!”

It seemed Mist, as a Minecraft expert, was aware of the existence of potions.

However, they likely didn’t have the capacity to brew potions while putting all their effort into acquiring Netherite gear.

But I was different.

All the hard work I had put in, not only during regular streaming time but also during off-the-record sessions, built up everything I had.

What I achieved wasn’t some “fake” obtained by forcing other Hako streamers into submission like Mist.

Words like ‘outlaw’ or ‘loan shark’ flitted through my mind, but I ignored them.

I earned my money honestly through hard work and acquired my gear, yes!

Though Mist shouted that it was cheating and considered fleeing, it was already too late.

Having consumed the Swiftness Potion II, I was already in a state of 40% increased speed.

As the flames from the Ignition died down, I quickly dashed in and landed a solid hit on Mist’s back.

“Oof!”

“The bleeding on your back is a measure of the knight’s honor!”

“What are you, some kind of old fogey?!”

Even while fleeing, Mist seemed baffled and could only complain, but the outcome was all but decided.

Think about it.

With Netherite sword’s attack power at 8, adding 6 from the Strength Potion II gives quite an offensive boost.

Moreover, what about the effects of the Swiftness Potion II, which enhances speed in various ways?

The specs had drastically widened compared to the first Purge Day.

“Once the potion effect duration ends!”

Desperately trying to buy time while attempting to escape, Mist looked at me with panic.

I leisurely smiled while pulling out extra potions from my inventory.

“I still have plenty! Our Lucy sister is a devoted fan of the movie ‘Infiltrators,’ so she made a drug field underground.”

“Uwaaaa!”

Though trying to maintain their composure, Mist was screaming in frustration over one absurd situation after another.

In the end, after taking two more hits from my sword, they seemed to decide that they needed to protect their precious Netherite gear, hastily pulled out their wings, and attempted to flee.

But it was too slow.

“Ryu-yo, my technique is about to carry!”

The strongly reinforced arrow pierced Mist’s back as they attempted to take flight.

Mist’s character fell miserably.

That sight seemed to represent the current predicament of Mist.

[Seoa’s bow ‘You are a virgin’ has targeted Mist.]

The distinct message crossing the world chat caused a temporary halt to the surrounding fights.

Though unspoken, everyone knew that my clash with Mist was the most powerful storyline of this Purge Day.

In the chilling stillness, I awkwardly chuckled and said, “Ahaha, I won again.”

On December 24th, on the eve of Christmas.

Once again, I say, I am greedy.

I will not relinquish the protagonist’s seat so easily.
