I played the 3rd game, and this time it feels like there are strong people in the game. The challenges become more intense and deadly, but I manage to survive.
Moving on to the 4th game, matchmaking takes forever, and there are fewer players now. This is because of the livestreaming, which allows people to understand the danger of this death match. Nonetheless, I still need to do it, but the waiting feels like it's taking forever!
After a few hours of waiting, it's finally there – my 4th match. This time, there are truly more powerful opponents, making it harder to win. However, it feels like I am getting stronger too.
I become more powerful, faster, and more accurate in shooting, as if slowly turning into a superhuman. I can dodge bullets on pure instinct and fight against dozens of enemies in one go. That's how I win the 4th match.
The 5th matchmaking truly takes forever; it takes hours and stretches into days. Yes, the world has come to understand the danger of the death games. POBG is a death game, and it's normal that no one wants to die.
People need to eat, and they need game points to survive, but the 100 points given free will surely last for weeks since the food is cheap. So, it will still take weeks before players need to obtain game points. I can't wait that long! "Hey world, do something!" I am looking at the ceiling as if there are people there. Is there? But I believe there is truly someone watching us.
Ding! ding! ding!. A system notification it seems the world answered my prayer. "The Game Hearts" can be used in death games. If a person dies, you would be revived back (can stack up to 3 per day). It costs 10 game points.
And so the grind begins. Instantly, my matchmaking that's taking forever finds people. People start to fight when their lives are not at risk. But all of them are noobs; they can't beat me "Pathetic". I killed all of them—people who have never experienced life and death.
Well, they are not completely dead with the Game Heart; people would not need to risk much but this make them weak they have no experience of true death and suffering. But I Lee Minseo will show them what true suffering means.
"Slowly, the world changes; people adapt to this death game, and so two months have passed."

"Hey, wanna join our squad?" said the guy with a gun on his back. "Are you crazy? That's the Lone Hunter," said his comrade. "Who's that, some crazy guy? Hahaha," he laughed, looking at his comrade and then back at the guy he's talking to.
He tried to touch him, but instantly, he grabs his hands. In just a few moves, he falls to the ground. "Hey, you b*tch!" He takes out his gun and tries to shoot at the guy, but the guy instantly dodges all of the bullets as if they were just flies. Then, he took out his gun shoots at the guy effortlessly, and he instantly dies and vanishes.
Oh, that guy? He's Lee Minseo, better known as "The Lone Hunter." He holds the top 1 ranking in solo matches and is considered to be the strongest solo player in POBG.
People realized that the more you battle and win, the more you transcend the boundaries of strength, and Lee Minseo is one of them. Not only has he experienced the true death match of POBG, but he has also become a strong figure in the POBG community as a solo player.
"Um, mister," a girl approached him as he was eating at a table. People are indeed scared of him, but it seems this group is trying their best not to be scared. "Can you team up with us, please?" The girl bows at Lee Minseo, showing her sincerity. He looks up at the girl, who seems young, and notices his other comrades are teenagers.
"Please... we need your help. Promise we will compensate you." The girl again pleads for assistance. "Sir, we promise we will follow you to live forever," a guy with blonde hair, seemingly American, adds. To his surprise, there is also a little boy he didn't notice before. "Sir, please help us." It's a peculiar combination of people – a girl, an American, and a kid. Why aren't they scared of him?
"Could they even compensate him?" Lee Minseo asks. "How much do you have?" The girl hesitates before answering, "Um, we have 100 points combined..." Lee Minseo tries his best not to laugh. Are they joking? He has ten thousands of points, and they have 100? It's something to be laughed about.
But as he looks at them, they are indeed ragged and tattered. Girls and kids are truly the ones who will barely survive in this world. Lee Minseo, as a solo player and lone hunter and a monster, has become a cold-hearted man after months of killing and grinding. He has forgotten the feeling of warmth until this day.
"Ye...ah," he said accidentally. He should have disagreed; they will just be a hindrance to his goal. But why? "Is that true, mister?" the girl said, taking out her hand and happily jumping in front of him. "Thank you, mister! Yes... yes," they express their gratitude. The American guy is also saying thank you, but the kid still remains silent.
The feeling they are giving Lee Minseo is something that he thought long forgotten maybe he is still human after all?
"But, he should have disagreed on that day so that he wouldn't be feeling that feeling again—the feeling of losing someone......"
