The bodies of the four did not disappear since they will linger around for 5 minutes after death. Players dying in neutral and chaotic areas and has not been revived will wander in a ghost-like state, they can see what is happening but they can't interact nor interfere with what will happen to their bodies after death. So even if I throw their bodies into any bodies of water, throw it to the rampaging monsters somewhere in the chaotic area or even do something (censored), you can't do anything about it unless someone will revive them.
I am merciful enough to spare their bodies to suffer in trouble like drowning but I am not that merciful enough to let them go just like that. After all, what is the point of killing them if they just suffer something minor such as death?
Their equipment is all floating after it dropped from their deaths. The equipment that Teruyama picked up earlier was also dropped after his death with the addition of his own equipment which is his armor. They might not have good stats but hey, they are good fodders to raise the level of my Versatile Weapon if it devours them. Maybe their weapons also have some good effects that I may have not known. After all, I only play for free and did not waste any money to get good equipment.
After picking them up and storing them all inside my inventory, it is time to revive them and experience a loop. The first one I revived is the Cleric due to the shorter time left on his time to be sent to the cathedral. That way, once he dies again, his timer is reset back to 5 minutes again.
Once the cleric was revived, the cleric was confused at first on what happened, however, before he can even speak and say something, I already brought down the sword to him, slicing him in half.
[Congratulations! Your level has risen from 50 to 51]
Hmm, I managed to break into level 40 without a hitch. No wonder many people wanted to just go on PK rather than go and kill monsters. I already reached level 50 after clearing the Insane level of Lesser Purgatory and a little bit closer to level 55 If I also challenged Abyss Mode, I must be already level 58 or level 59 by now. But who cares about it. Levels are easy to acquire, revenge is not easy to do. It's all about the timing.
This time around, the cleric's weapon dropped. It is one of the beginner weapons that can be bought with real money which is in other words, this is a weapon with unique structure and stats. It might even have a skill I can extract. Just like the rest, it was stored inside my inventory.
I repeated all of the steps again and again to the other players including Teruyama. I think I have killed them for around 20 rounds already and from what I can see from their levels, they have fallen back to level 0 already. However, that doesn't mean I am done with them yet.
There is a type of PK that was categorized as an "overkill" by players due to how brutal it was and how pitiful the target will be. The reason it was called overkill even for the PK players is due to how excessive it was. Players who will get Pked will eventually drop all their equipment they are wearing including the weapons. Even their levels will also drop back to zero. Of course, that is not the end. As long as they keep on dying even though the equipment they are wearing were already dropped, something will always drop and that will be the items inside their inventory. In some cases, even the quest items that they are currently finishing will also drop. Not only that, if they still keep on dying despite losing all the items left on their inventory, but the drops also won't stop. The next thing that will drop is gold. The misfortune of the player that have undertaken that overkill method will only get to cry since nothing will be left in their belongings, including the boxer shorts or the underwear they are wearing.
Reviving Teruyama again, he is already not wearing anything and he is crying already.
"Please, man! Whoever you are, please spare us already! We are already naked and our items already in your inventory! Our level already plummeted to level zero! Can you at least spare us and let us go?"
I don't know what Teruyama is thinking right now but seeing his reaction, it was clear he was already in despair and his out of his wits already. I paused for a while and thought for his proposal in a fake way to let him have hope but who said I will let any of them go?
Before I can even say anything, Teruyama started to run away from me. I grinned because he was quite cocky to think he can escape. Before he can even run far enough, I already changed my weapon into a Hook and Chain. Without saying a word, I throw the hook to the running Teruyama and wrap him with it.
"You just made a mistake of escaping. I was thinking to let you go but I changed my mind. DIE!"
Gripping the chain in my hands, I lift the chain attached to Teruyama like a whip and slam him down to the ground.
BANG!
Since his HP is just too small after revival and the bonus HP and defense from armors are also gone, just slamming him to the ground immediately killed him. And in the end, they keep on begging for me to stop but I already have no intention of doing so, As long as they still drop money, they can't escape.
...
Around 5 hours later, the four of them are all dried up from resources, gold, and items. Not a single gold was left for them. The gains are not that big and my name is red as hell but my revenge has been exacted by now. And if they plan to strike me to take revenge in the future, they are welcome to try.
Now that it was done, I opened my inventory and pulled out the Crime Cleansing Potion. It costs 10,000 gold but it was worth it. I still have 20 bottles inside my inventory. If they still plan to take revenge at me, they are welcome to try but that doesn't mean I will be merciful either. Since my side job is done, time to resume the quest. I leave the corpses to their fate whether they will continue to play or not. It is up to them...
