Multiversal Livestreaming System : I Can Copy My Viewers Skills-Chapter 23: Government’s Responsibility
Chapter 23: Government's Responsibility
Adam didn't slow down...
The moment Rei sent the spear-wielder crashing into the dirt, Adam grabbed his blood scythe as he went to the next enemy!
The ambushers were already losing..
The shock of the Goblin War Flute, the illusions, and the relentless assault had shattered their coordination.
The ambushers fought to regroup, but Adam wouldn't let them.
A man to his right lifted a staff, his lips moving in rapid incantation.
Adam's eyes narrowed.
A caster...
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
He didn't wait to find out what spell the man was casting.
With a flick of his wrist, his blood scythe disintegrated, shifting into thin, whip-like tendrils that shot forward.
The tendrils wrapped around the caster's arm just as a bright sigil formed in the air.
Adam yanked.
The man screamed as his arm was twisted at an unnatural angle, the sigil shattering as his concentration broke.
Before he could recover, Adam was already on him.
His free hand shot forward, fingers curling into a spear-like shape, and plunged directly into the man's throat.
A sickening gurgle. Then silence.
[Ember Ranked Stream Hunter has been slain.]
[+400 Exp, +0.1 Basic Soul Core.]
[+80 Gold.]
[Infamy : 2]
Another notification sounded.
[You have leveled up!]
[Level 3 → 4]
[Physical Attributes have been improved!]
Adam barely glanced at the notification before spinning on his heel.
The fight wasn't over...
To his left, Nathaniel fired another arrow, the projectile whistling through the air before embedding itself in an enemy's shoulder.
The man recoiled, his grip on his sword faltering.
Elara was on him in an instant, her dagger flashing.
She struck twice!
Once to sever his tendons, the second to slice his throat.
One by one, the ambushers fell.
The spear-wielder, still struggling beneath Rei's grip, let out a choked gasp.
"Wait—!"
Rei's fist crashed into his jaw. Crack.
The man's body twitched before going limp.

[Prankster of Kingdoms displays curiosity over the illusion magic the streamer had caster earlier]
[Frog Eater] : I think I might have an idea over what this streamer's ability is.
Adam ignored the livestream notifications as he scanned the battlefield.
Six bodies...
Blood soaking into the forest floor.
Only one person remained standing...
Levi.
The young man had retreated to a safer distance, his fingers twitching as he clutched his staff.
His breathing was ragged, sweat dripping down his forehead.
He had seen everything, he knew how this fight would end...
Adam took a step forward.
Levi flinched.
His knuckles turned white around his weapon.
"D-Don't think you've won."
Adam didn't respond.
Instead, he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out another Barrier Scroll. He activated it silently.
A thin, translucent shield shimmered around him for a brief moment before fading into invisibility.
Levi's eyes darted around.
His mind was racing.
His comrades were dead, and escape was nearly impossible.
However, he didn't want to just accept dying here...
Adam observed him for a second before clutching the blood blade in his hand.
In a blink, he closed the distance.
Levi's reaction was immediate!
He swung his staff forward, a pulse of magic surging from its tip.
Adam twisted mid-step, narrowly avoiding the burst of energy.
The moment his foot touched the ground, he lunged, his blood forming into a thin, needle-like spike.
He thrust forward!
Levi barely managed to react.
He staggered back, raising his staff in a defensive motion.
The blood spike scraped against the wood, deflecting slightly... but not enough!
The tip pierced his shoulder.
"AGH—!"
Levi staggered, his face contorting in pain.
He clutched his wound, his breaths shallow.
Adam pulled back, his blood weapon dissolving into thin air.
He tilted his head slightly.
"You're the only one left."
Levi's throat tightened.
His allies were gone. It was just him now, surrounded by people he didn't understand.
He forced a shaky breath.
"W-Who... Who are you people? You're not newbies..."
Adam stared at him blankly.
"We are."
Levi let out a weak, bitter laugh.
"Liar... It doesn't matter. I won't say anything. Just kill me and get it over with."
Adam didn't respond right away.
Instead, he crouched down, as he coagulated blood to die down Levi's arms and legs.
Levi winced.
"I know." Adam said finally.
"But I won't kill you."
Levi flinched at the certainty in his voice.
He swallowed hard, but the dryness in his throat made it painful.
Adam watched him closely.
"I'm not good at interrogations, but I know the government has their ways."
Levi stiffened.
His fingers twitched against the ropes, his shoulders tensing.
Adam noticed.
"Seems like you're more afraid of them than you are of death."
Adam continued, his voice calm.
Levi's lips pressed together, his breath shallow.
"You don't get it..."
Adam leaned in slightly.
"I know, the Government has ways to keep your soul alive. They can technically torture you for years without killing you."
[Mads_1401 has donated 20 coins]
[Mads_1401] : New here! This streamer has a good personality.
[Experienced Old Knight] : Another strange viewer... from which universe are you from?
[Bird Hunter] : Since when was threatening someone considered having a good personality?
[Mads_1401] : It's good when you're not the one being threatened.
Silence stretched between them.
Levi's gaze darted to the side, like he was searching for an answer he didn't want to say.
His fingers clenched.
Then, after what felt like an eternity, he exhaled.
"We... We weren't trying to kill you."
His voice was barely above a whisper.
"We were trying to send you to the upper floors..."
Adam's eyes narrowed.
"How is that any different from trying to kill us?"
Levi's breathing turned unsteady.
"I-I don't know... I didn't want to be a part of this! I was ordered to do it because I can't afford to mess with the people behind this!"
Nathaniel, who had been standing silently nearby, finally spoke.
"You do have a choice. Reporting this to the government officials who work inside the tower is always an option."
Levi let out a dry, humorless laugh.
"You don't understand..."
Adam was patient as he calmly asked.
"Then, who were the people who ordered you to do this?"
Levi opened his mouth, his brows knitting together like he was trying to recall something.
A second passed.
His breath hitched.
His face paled.
"I... I forgot."
Adam frowned.
Rei, who had been watching silently, scoffed.
"Bullshit."
"I swear!"
Levi's voice rose in panic.
"I really don't remember...!"
Adam had heard enough.
His arm moved in a swift motion.
Smack!
Levi's head snapped to the side.
His body slumped forward, completely unconscious.
Adam exhaled slowly, rolling his shoulder back.
"That's enough from him."
Nathaniel glanced down at Levi before shifting his gaze back to Adam.
"What now?"
Adam turned away, his voice even.
"This event seems to be related to a large scale operation since it's something that involves the upper floors."
"It's better to let the Government handle it.."
