"Holy shit, you actually dared to swing first!"
The four thugs surrounding Lily and Amber had been watching Marcus like hawks from the moment he arrived. They noticed his high-tier gear immediately and chose to play nice, not because they feared him, but because there was no reason to stir trouble right away. Four against one was still four against one. No matter how well-equipped he looked, he was just a lone Knight. Why would seasoned players like them be intimidated?
When Marcus finally made his move, they nearly laughed out loud. The sheer recklessness of it stunned them. One man charging four without hesitation? In their eyes, it was stupidity bordering on suicide. He was practically asking for a free trip to the respawn point.
Better yet, this was perfect.
