Noctis and Takara are inside the inn on the 10th Floor of the Novice Stage. They drank koshu, or Japanese white wine, paired with a good hearty Japanese feast of sushi ,gyoza, yakitori , kashipan, yakisoba, takoyaki, and tonkatsu. They ate and drank on a complete Japanese dining set. They ignored the envious looks of the ordinary players, who cast looks at them, while murmuring to each other in hushed tones. "Isn't that Player Zero, who topped the charts in opening tests? And landed in the top 1 ranking for Novices?""I saw him easily beat up Joe Franco, the Guild Leader of the Scraper Guild. It was a rare sight to see, an overpowered newbie who just casually tossed aside Joe Franco as if Joe was just an ant to be stepped on." "Isn't that girl the multi-elemental mage Takara Elric? I saw player Zero rescue that attractive girl and got her out of the clutch of Joe Franco. Scared and intimidated the shit out of Joe, rather." "You're right man. Damn, what I'd give to get that girl
The next day, Takara and Noctis returned to the VIP corner of the Blacksmith shop. "Takara, Zero, what are you doing here? I guess it's not about those items you had customized, is it?" Yuusei said, "Precisely. What we want to talk about is your history with the former Gamer Guild. But before that, let's have Takara here to see what she can do so no one will eavesdrop." Noctis replied to Yuusei. "I'm a multi-elemental battle mage, not a witch. Luckily, I'm prepared for situations like this. Thanks for the new spell book you gave me, my dear. It really comes in handy." "Will the both of you cut this lovey dovey stuff, you lovebirds? Just get started and cast the spell already, Takara. I don't have time to witness you being sweet to each other 24/7. I got some refining to do afterwards." Yuusei cut in impatiently. Translation: "Oh Methis, the primordial goddess that is the bane of the gods and goddesses of Olympus, I invoke you to soundproof the exterior of the VIP Section of t
The elite werewolf player Raymond Collins is in the wilds, helping Asuka Enomoto, the witch assistant of Chiyo Chinen hunt down a fierce but wild basilisk. "What do you need a fierce basilisk for, Asuka? Do you need some basilisk parts? You witches and warlocks do use weird concoctions for your brews." Raymond said as he turned back into his wolf form and charged at the basilisk. "Be careful, Raymond. That basilisk can spew venom and fly around the place." "I know it. I'm not dumb. Just do your thing and give me back-up with your spells already." Raymond said to Asuka through telepathy while in wolf form. Raymond pounced at the Basilisk, which couldn't avoid and fly upwards in time, as the sheer strength of Raymond in his wolf form completely suppressed the basilisk's evasiveness. " This snake is slimy as hell. At this rate, I can only suppress this high-leveled snake for a few minutes. Do it now, Asuka." Raymond said telepathically to Asuka while atop the struggling basilisk,
When Raymond returned back to the fort of the werewolves, he went straight to the kitchen to see what the servants were cooking.He could smell the aroma of roast meat wafting into the air from his direction. He knew in an instant who was around in the garden. His eldest sister, Bianca Collins, the current leader of their wolf pack. He knew that she was probably drinking a few bottles of beer again in the garden. He appeared into the kitchen, and requested some roast meat to match that of his sister. He also had some beer delivered straight to the garden. Then he went straight to the garden, and sure enough, he spotted Bianca drinking a bottle of beer. "That's quite unusual of you to be drinking this early, Bianca. Is something the matter?" Raymond said with a hint of concern in his voice as he opened his bottle of beer, sat down beside Bianca, and started drinking."Yes, there is, brother. You're good at reading me. It's just that I've had a lot to deal with lately. You know
After the fight with the basilisk, Asuka went back to the hideout of the witches. She knew that Chiyo should be up and about already by now. Sure enough, Chiyo is in the brewery, preparing to make a potion. "What do you need Hecate's poison for, Chiyo? Is there someone that you want killed discreetly? That explains why you had me hunt down a basilisk today." "Perfect. You arrived right in time, my dear assistant. You're correct, there's someone I want killed. It could be one of those who used to be our allies, or it could be someone from the other faction. I waited for you to arrive so I could start making this poison potion. " Asuka immediately removed the basilisk from her system inventory, then made the basilisk's carcass float to the table using spatial magic. She brought out the dissecting tools, put on her gloves, hair net, apron, and mask, then started to cut away at the innards of the dead basilisk. "Asuka. Are you trying to kill yourself? The innards of the basili
Hecate is at the fort of the elite high elves, attempting to break through their tough defenses. I don't believe that their defenses can't be penetrated.She thought to herself. She knew that the rune magic of the high elves can be tricky to deal with. "Give it up, you fucking sly bitch. The fort is protected by layer after layer of high-tier rune magic. You can try to barge your way in, and retrieve the old weaving loom you used along with your book of spells." Ashera Valhorn, a female high elf, taunted Hecate, and made fun of Hecate's futile efforts to break the multi-rune shield barrier."What will you do now, you witch? The barrier is further coated with celestial holy magic. You use magic imbued with the dark demonic arts, which is the natural nemesis." Ashera said in a mocking tone to Hecate. "You think I didn't come here prepared, huh, you high elf? The best way to counter holy rune magic is the magic of the dark demonic arts. I bet you didn't know that, smart bitch." He
Anubis is on the top floor of an Egyptian pyramid somewhere on the desert floor in the God Mode stage of RPG Fantasia. He sat at his office, filled with ancient Egyptian symbols, with the Eye of Horus carved on the wall right in front of him. He removed his dog mask, while Cerberus laid down on the floor, all three heads fast asleep, with the dog's size reduced to that of a normal adult-sized Great Dane with 3 heads. He sat there, contemplating in silence, thinking about the plan he set into motion. He went full blast on driving a wedge between Morrigan and Hecate. He is already on the initial stages of his plan as he bribed insiders close to both Morrigan and Hecate to give him top secret and updated information on their plans and whereabouts.This is my chance to hit two birds with one stone. These two old hags have been acting high and mighty for so long, and it's time that I finally stepped in. They must have forgotten that it was me who introduced the two to each other. N
Anubis woke up a few hours later, still sprawled on the sandy desert. Luckily, his self-regeneration ability meant he had no need for max health potions and elixir potions to restore his magical power, which are commonly used by the lesser race of players, including the human race to keep themselves going in RPG Fantasia. He got up from the cold, sandy desert, brushed off sand from his armor, took off his dog mask, and surveyed the entire situation. The vampires and the private army of Fenrir caused serious damage to Anubis's soldiers, with many dead and injured, but he felt reassured by the fact that they failed to breach through the doors of the Pyramid. It's not a problem for Anubis, however, as he can just as easily raise a fresh batch of troops and turn them into battle hardened veterans. He still had trump cards he hadn't revealed yet, like his elite chariot troops that he equipped with weapons of stainless steel and gave them a high-tech chariot to use and ride on, and a
