I Changed My Mind.
"Sh... sh..."
When Luo Zhen opened the message Kikuoka Seijiro had sent him and clicked on the attached audio file, the first thing that came through was a burst of noisy static.
Amid the commotion, they could hear the voices of many people discussing something, and it even seemed as though they could feel the oppressive atmosphere.
"What are they saying?"
"I can't hear anything!"
"Let me listen!"
"Hey! Don't shove!"
Asuna, Leafa, Liz, Silika, Kirito, Klein, Agil, and Xing all crowded around Luo Zhen one after another in an effort to hear the recording clearly. His left side was surrounded by fragrant beauties, while his right was packed with rough, burly men. The two completely different sensations left him in an extremely conflicted mood.

Yui had flown up at some point and landed on Luo Zhen's head.
"Listen closely. The actual content is coming next."
At Yui's reminder, everyone quieted down and concentrated.
Even the surrounding guild members noticed what was happening and realized that something seemed to be going on, so they all fell silent as well.
Then, a somewhat shrill voice tore through the tense silence and began to ring out clearly.
"This is true power! True strength!"
A voice filled with anger, delight, madness, and desire rang out with force.
"Foolish people! Remember my name forever, along with terror!"
The distinctly metallic voice, hardly sounding human, entered everyone's ears.
"The name of this gun—and my name—is—'Death Gun'!"
That was the entire audio file.
At the end of the recording, this was all everyone heard: a voice radiating an instinctive impulse and genuine desire to kill.
—"Death Gun."
Just as Kikuoka Seijiro had said, the other party had announced this name
