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
Ashera Valhorn is at the fort of the high elves, monitoring the defensive reconstruction efforts after the battle with Circe. She expected the witch Hecate to come hot at her trails the moment she had Hecate's old weaving loom and spellbook stolen from Hecate's great and imposing Palace. She knew that if she sent a high elf to infiltrate Circe's Palace, she'd be exposed straight away, so she had the assistance of the woodland elves, who are good at sneaking around and disguising themselves aside from being expert hunters, trackers and rangers among the elven race. Most of all, the woodland elves know nature magic, are familiar with the woodlands of RPG Fantasia like the back of their palms, and can easily sneak behind enemy lines undetected. So, she enlisted the help of the woodland elves through the woodland elf Galadriel. The woodland elf didn't have a hard time finding and sneaking into Circe's Palace, as Ashera sent a male high elf named Sinnar Larethlock, who happened to be
Circe paced back and forth with impatience in her island Palace somewhere in the God Mode Stage, wondering how she could retrieve back her Golden Weaving Loom gifted to her by King Midas, and the sorcery spellbook she worked so hard on. Her sorcery spell book contained thousands of powerful spells written in ancient Greek. Circe wondered how the two elves managed to sneak past the seemingly docile lions and wolves that are scattered around the island grounds of her Palace. The enchanted wolves and lions should have been alerted at the presence of intruders, and torn the intruders into shreds before eating them up. Even the seas that surrounded the island had rough stormy waves, making it hard for players who knew how to sail ships navigate the rough waters. Underneath the waters lurked beautiful mermaids who enticed unsuspecting players to take a swim through by shape-shifting into a young but beautiful half-human girl with the upper body of a human, with the lower body consist
Lilith regained her consciousness and scanned her surroundings. She saw that the infirmary was full of recuperating vampires. She laid down on a soft bed in an infirmary, attended to by Tominaga Toshiko, a hybrid she-wolf marksman/healer who belonged to the side of the Game Administrator and hybrid werewolf Fenrir. "Where am I? What happened right after I fought one on one with Anubis? Where is Fenrir, Tominaga? " Lilith asked Tominaga. Just as Tominaga was about to open her mouth to answer, the hybrid werewolf Fenrir, who has shifted back to his human form, came inside the infirmary and sat down beside Lilith. Tominaga heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that once Lilith starts asking questions it's hard to shake her off until she gets the answers she wanted to know. She then proceeded to check on the condition of the other recuperating vampires after she finished giving Lilith her much needed potions, while listening to the conversation of both Lilith and Fenrir. "Thanks for r
Noctis is now on the 15th floor of the Novice Stage, fighting with two shinigami named Takayoshi Hime, and Suzuhiko Hime.Damn it, there has to be a way to suppress the passive skill of the girl. Her dancing can heal herself and her brother, and also give a major strength buff to her brother. I also need to find a way to shatter her pendant, or there'll be no end to the shield barrier that surrounds her. Support class types may be weak in a fight, but they are the most annoying. If I can find Suzuhiko's weakness, I can change the tide of this fight.Noctis thought as he was forced to go on the defensive, with Takayoshi getting a major buff from Suzuhiko. Noctis counterparried and slashed at Takayoshi, their katanas making loud clanging noises as Takayoshi kept on forcing Noctis to fight defensively. "Can't you see your situation is desperate? Give up, human. There is no way you can defeat me and my sister." Takayoshi gloated at Noctis, as lunged straight for Noctis' ribcage, which
When Noctis went back inside the Blacksmith's Shop, he could sense a hint of excitement flowing out from Yuusei. "Try to calm down and contain your excitement, Yuusei. I didn't expect you to be able to modify this Nemean Lion's Coat in just over a week. I hope the end result is not a disappointment, knowing that you're an expert blacksmith and an elite player too, at that. Now, show me the Nemean Lion's Coat. "Noctis said in a calm and collected tone at Yuusei who sat behind a desk in the VIP section of the Blacksmith's Shop. " Don't mind me, and do forgive my sudden burst of excitement, Noctis. Here is the Nemean Lion's Coat. Have a look and see for yourself if you're satisfied." Yuusei took out the Nemean Lion's Fur Coat and placed it on the desk right in front of him for Noctis to inspect, his eyes still gleaming with excitement. Noctis picked up and inspected the Nemean Lion's Fur Coat. He noted that the coat' s color seemed to have changed from light brown to golden brown,
Yuusei and Noctis went inside the Auction House together, wearing their disguises. They went to the counter of the Auction House, and presented the three legendary class items to the sexy and attractive girl wearing a tight fitted adventurer's clothes that exposed her flawless skin and sexy body who is seated behind the counter. The girl's eyes widened in surprise at the sight of the three items. "The mace, pendant, and coat are normally items dropped by minibosses after they die. To think someone managed to change the class from Rare to Legend class. This will definitely cause an uproar among the elite players. Are these the items that you want auctioned off? "The girl asked with a questioning glance at the two. " Yes it is. I'm Tabito, the one who changed the class of these items, and the person here beside me is Lelouch. Here is the initial payment of gems. "Yuusei introduced both himself and Noctis to the girl, while he placed a pouch full of gems at the counter right in fro
The news of Circe's death, and the defeat of both Morrigan and Anubis quickly spread all over RPG Fantasia, sending shockwaves felt by everyone in RPG Fantasia, starting from the Game Administrators down to the ordinary players.The Witches and Warlocks Guild got heavily demoralized by the loss of one of the most influential leaders of the witches. The Guild Leader of the Witches and Warlocks Guild eventually disbanded the Guild after an unanimous majority vote from the elite players who happened to be the main members of the Witches and Warlocks Guild, and every one from the Witches and Warlocks Guild, starting from the Main Guild down to the subsidiary second-rate and third-rate guilds bid their good-byes to each other, and eventually parted ways. The arch-demon Beleth switched sides to that of the Minority Faction after news spread that it was Hashioki who caused the showdown that recently happened, and it was Hashioki who directly killed Circe with his high-tech and state of the
On the 17th floor of the Intermediate Stage of RPG Fantasia, players quickly left the 15th floor, as they heard that forces of 3 Game Administrators will battle it out on the 15th floor anytime today, and they didn't want to get involved, or else get caught in the aftermath. The players knew that without the Nobility Badge, they stood no chance of intervening in the upcoming battle, and if they attempted to do so with their average stats, they'd get eliminated from the game right away, forever. In the dangerous world of RPG Fantasia, where alliances and balance of power might shift at any time by any means possible, it was like walking on a thin wire that might snap with one single mistake. You have to tread carefully and try not to anger Game Guardians, Game Administrators and elite players, for elite players with a Nobility Badge treat ordinary players as just mere cannon fodder at their disposal. Anger a Game Administrator, Game Guardian or even an elite player as an ordinary,
Morrigan is at her castle, inspecting the quality of the new shipment of modified Egyptian weapons sent over by Anubis, th, witchy brews sent by witches under Hecate's orders, and a witch's spell-book containing witchy spells sent over by witches under Hecate, accompanied by her male assistant named Ryuma Ochima. "What's up with the other two Game Administrators lately? I can sense that today's batch of shipments aren't high quality, and can only be used by the non-elite soldiers at best. Something is fishy right here, Morrigan. The three of them are up to something funny. "Ryuma held out a witchy tome for Morrigan to inspect.Morrigan accepted the witch tome, opened it, and read a sample spell written in the demonic tome out loud. " Oh Hecate, the one in command of the witches, I invoke you to grant the sword of an ordinary soldier the magic of darkness to smite down the soldiers of the light." " That's a basic spell used by the ordinary witches. What was Hecate thinking when sh
Methis sat at the table in the VIP area of an Inn somewhere in the Legendary Stage, with Hades and a young female hybrid vampire player named Etsu Yahiro. Etsu noted that there was an awkward air of silence and unease as the two Game Administrators from the Minority Faction didn't see eye to eye with each other. "Ahem. Now that the three of us are here, let's sort out the misunderstanding between the two of you, alright? This can't be allowed to go on, or else it will develop into a civil war, and the Majority Faction will take advantage of this." The young and sexy vampire cleared her throat, and began to speak. " Hmph. "Both Hades and Methis said together in unison, looking down their noses at the attire that Etsu wore. " I don't see anything wrong with what I'm currently wearing, you ancient, outdated oldies." Etsu sharply remarked, annoyed by the way the two Game Administrators looked at her attire, as if they were judging her because of that. "Now that I got your attentio
After the auction officially ended, Iona,Kaori and Noctis met up in the Inn of the 10th floor at the Novice Stage,while Yuusei went back to his spot in the VIP Corner of the Blacksmith shop to reconsider . They sat at a VIP table in the Inn, busy eating a meal of oven roasted chicken, while drinking expensive cider. "I believe you didn't invite us to this meal for nothing, and for free, Lelouch. You even took extra precautions to place a shield barrier around us that prevents the others in the VIP section from overhearing what we're talking about. Who are you? What do you want? Why did you help me and my sister earlier? "Iona asked Noctis while she was slicing a piece of chicken with her fork and knife." Just call me Zero instead. As for who I am, well, both of you will know when the time is right. Straight to the point. I see. What if I told you that I know exactly who the entire Assassin Guild is planning to face off against right now, and I got better quality items and weapons
"The Last Item to be auctioned off today is the Nemean Lion's Fur Coat. The starting bid is 30 million gems." Yurika announced from the stage of the Auction House. "I bid 40 million gems for this fur coat." Noctis looked around to see an elite orc player bid for the fur coat. Let's see how this develops. The Orc Guild belongs to the Majority Faction, and his brother used to clash with, and often kill Orc players from the Majority Faction for trying to get into his way. The Orcs are strong, muscular and tanky, with great defense, attack power and strength, but they are slow due to their size, so the speed stats of the fur coat will be just a minor boost. Noctis thought to himself. "I bid 100 million gems"An elite goblin player from the Goblins Guild countered. The goblins also belong to the Majority faction. They are said to be extremely rich, hoarding a lot of gold and jewels in their headquarters. They specialize in sneak attacks and setting up ambushes, making the most use
With Esumi out of the picture, and having successfully rescued Kaori, the half-sister of the elite. player Iona, Noctis outsmarted the Necromancer Guild Leader. "Thanks for helping me obtain the mace, and helping to look out for my sister, Lelouch." Iona chatted with Noctis. "It's not a problem, Iona. I have a question, though. Why did you bid for that mace, when you're not even a fighter class? The weapon isn't compatible with you. And why did you let your sister fend for herself, with zero support, when you could have at least backed her behind the scenes since you got a Nobility Badge? "Awkward silence filled the air for a few minutes before Iona managed to reply back through the message function of the game system. " I wanted to get back at Esumi for disrespecting my sister upfront. So I decided that I might as well spoil his plan for the 100th time again. And as for why I let her fend for herself with zero support, it's because I want her to get stronger. How? She has to get
A few hours passed inside the Auction House. Noctis observed the situation inside the Auction House getting more tense and awkward, with the excited players bidding at absurdly high prices in an attempt to obtain semi-legendary class items. It's a wonder they can hike the value of so-so items that high. I'm not surprised. Dogs always fight for scraps, not the whole meal. Noctis thought to himself, totally unimpressed by the items being auctioned off. "It's a wonder that fights don't break out inside the Auction House. I can already sense that the tension is about to break the fragile peace inside from here." Noctis remarked while observing the whole scene. "Simple. If a player attempts a fight inside the Auction House, he'll be an open target to the other players inside the Auction House. If a player attempts to start a fight, they immediately get ejected out of the Auction House if they aren't attacked first. "Oshe replied to Noctis. " Now that all the auxiliary items have no
Yuusei and Noctis went inside the Auction House together, wearing their disguises. They went to the counter of the Auction House, and presented the three legendary class items to the sexy and attractive girl wearing a tight fitted adventurer's clothes that exposed her flawless skin and sexy body who is seated behind the counter.
