"You did what?!" gulat na saad ni Kuya.

Kulang na lang pumreno siya ng malakas habang nasa kalye kami, sa gitna ng biyahe dahil nag-offer siyang ihatid ako sa trabaho ngayon. But since that only happens in pathetic online stories ('yong may papreno-preno ng sasakyan pang nalalaman pagkatapos magulat), my brother was only surprised when he exclaimed, just several seconds ago.

I was kinda expecting a scolding when I realized what I did to the city. Hindi kasi kami nagkita ni Kuya sa Guild Base sa Qedium pagkatapos ko manggaling ng Holtavion Province. It's because he messaged me that we're just gonna talk about the information I gathered, by morning in real life.

Kaya nang mag-logout ako kaninang quarter to three ng madaling araw ay natulog na talaga ako. And here he is; utterly surprised when I told him that I wiped out the whole city of Aluvarhom with one spell, using my Wraith Account.

"Ba't mo naman ginawa 'yon?" saad ni Kuya ng panguyngoy na may halong tono ng sobrang pagka-dismaya habang nakangunot ng todo ang noo niya. "You didn't have to do that."

"Kuya. Are we going to return to the same topic that we argued about when I threatened those player bullies?" I said in an emotionless tone. "The players in Aluvarhom attacked me first. All I did was defend myself, while all they did was attack me. Tulad ng sabi ko kanina, I asked nicely. Kasalanan ko ba na gano'n kalakas ang isang spell ng Wraith Account ko?"

My older brother didn't answer me while he was driving. His vision was focused on the road we were traveling. Walang emosyon na mababakas sa mukha niya habang nagamamaneho.

"Eh pambihira. Wala ka ulit kasi do'n. Ikaw ba naman, sigawan ka ng 'Semi-Divine player!', sabay aatakihin ka ng walang pasabi ng tuloy-tuloy." I faintly complained, still with a bored tone. "Take note, ah; rapid fire attacks 'yon, simultaneously. I mean, who wouldn't fight back? After just asking a simple question, tapos bigla kang aatakihin? Kuya sabihin mo nga, kakalma ka ba? Magpapairal ng diplomasya? O tatakas na lang? Kasi ako, papalag ako."

My brother still didn't answer, but he sighed and his shoulders slightly drooped while holding his car's steering wheel. Alam kong nakuha niya ang punto ko. Hindi naman kasi ako duwag na pagkatapos akong atakihin ng walang pasabi, ay hindi ako lalaban.

I just showed them that they messed with the wrong player. And supposedly, I was just there to observe and ask questions. Plus, I'm literally a new player with just two accounts; the other just being too powerful. At dahil bagong player ako, malay ko ba na may in-game city pala na bigla ka na lang aatakihin ng mga resident players doon, dahil sa Semi-Divine player o di kaya ay dayo ka. They literally brought harm to themselves when they decided to attack me. Kasi ang akala din nila, hindi ako papalag.

"I'm..." I said after a minute of silence, and turned my head to him. "I'm not justifying what I did. But, if I was there, and was in my Healer account and I get beaten up or threatened to be killed in-game by the same players in Aluvarhom; what would you do to them?"

My brother surprisingly chuckled when I asked that, and shook his head. Nawala na ang sobrang pagka-seryoso niya kanina.

He faced me shortly with a very warm smile, then turned his head back to the road. "Of course, I would most likely, wipe out the whole city. Hindi ka nila pwedeng salingin. Subukan nila."

Hindi ko naman gusto gamitin kay Kuya 'yong 'card' ng pagiging overprotective niyang tao para iparating ang punto na kaya ko ang protektahan ang sarili ko in-game. Pero nanggaling na rin sa kanya; gano'n din ang gagawin niya sa Aluvarhom kung sakaling atakihin nila ako habang nasa Healer account ako.
