Fate Online: Shadow - Chapter 484: Damn Big Lizard!
“Whaaaaat?”
As the dignified Dragon King, even he was shocked at the words he heard since it was the first time that some puny human actually dared to curse him!
“You..puny human! You dare curse at me?! Me?! The Dragon King?! How dare you?! Are you tired of living?!”
Shocked turned into immediate anger as his body blazed with fury! Similar to the character Broly in an anime series. His eyes had turned white in anger, and the first person who took the first brunt of his anger was obviously Shadow, followed by the monsters below as all of them immediately felt weak in their knees and fell down. A few of them were even prostrating in fear!
“You.Dare.Curse.At.Me?! Me?! Did you think I would spare you just because you’re Laura’s student?! How foolish!”
Everything happened so fast that Shadow only realized that he was attacked when the words…
[You have died]
Floated before his eyes and he got ejected from the game.
Michael stayed still inside the game cabin and stared blankly into space for a few moments
“That bloody lizard really killed me!” Michael was exasperated at this experience before accepting what happened to him a couple of seconds later.
“Though it felt somehow good after letting out some steam” Michael mumbled as he left the gaming cabin.
He stood over his gaming cabin while seemingly deep in thought.
“I wonder if Amanda is still busy in the game?” Michale pondered after contemplating for a while, still feeling a little frustrated after getting killed since it had only been over an hour after he had logged on.
He picked up his phone on the desk beside his bed and immediately rang Amanda’s number.
Ring! Ring!
The phone rang for a few seconds before it was picked up.
[Hi babe, what’s up? I saw that you went offline, did something happen?] Amanda’s voice echoed from the other side of the call and it was clear that she was still in the game since Michael could hear the muffled sounds of explosions and yelling from the other side.
“It’s a little frustrating, but I actually died, an oversized lizard killed me!”Michael connected the call to a Bluetooth earpiece and went to the bathroom and washed his face.
[An oversized lizard? Was it a Dragon or a Wyvern?] Amanda asked with a laugh.
“It’s a Dragon, more precisely, it’s the Lord of the Dragon Valley, Dragon King Erebus” Since he was busy brushing his teeth, Michael answered in a weird tone.
[Erebus? I’ve heard about him from my master. He said he’s incredibly arrogant, very self-centered, and looks down on beings of insignificant status.] Amanda replied with a laugh and since this is probably the first time, it made her happy that Michael died in the game. Knowing him, she knows that he probably did something stupid that angered that arrogant Dragon, and it got him killed!
“That bastard tried to force me to admit that I was trying to steal from him. Sometimes it really makes me wonder if I’m even interacting with an A.I or a real person with how they act like they are actually real people” Michael said while changing his clothes.
[And that is what makes this game the best out there since the immersion is only second to reality] Amanda replied as she kicked a sea monster that tried to board the ship back down to the sea.
“Right, I’m heading over to your place. Do you have anything you want me to bring on the way?” Michael asked while making his way down towards the door.
[Then stop by the convenience store and get us a couple of ice creams. Get a chocolate for Jenny and mine’s Vanilla, thanks babe!] Amanda answered.
“Alright, I’ll be there in a jiffy” Michael replied as he got on his car and drove away.
[Just come in when you arrive] n.-(/)(.-//–I(-n
Arriving near the convenience store just a few blocks away from their community. Michael parked his car, made his way inside, and bought the ice creams he intended to buy and a few snacks he wanted to try.
Ten or so minutes later, Michael reached Jenny’s place and sent them a text that he had arrived before he casually entered the house after inputting the password into the biometric system of the place, which every house in the community is equipped with.
Acting like it was his own home, Michael made his way to the kitchen and placed the ice creams inside the freezer before he casually sat down by the sofa in the living room and started watching a romantic comedy on Metflix.
“Hey babe, wake up. Hey!”
Michael felt someone tapping his cheeks and groggily opened his eyes and saw Amanda’s face looking at him while bending over. He was about to say something when his eyes were quickly distracted by something tempting as he couldn’t help but slightly look down and stare at that deep white ravine before him.
“Hey pervert, eyes up here!” Amanda chuckled and lightly hit him on his forehead before straightening her back.
Michael smiled and slowly sat up, “Hey babe, and sorry for sleeping on the couch Jen!”
From the kitchen, Jenny was in the kitchen preparing something and turned her head around when her name got called, “I’m making dinner so make sure to eat first before you go”
“Thanks, how long was I out?” Michael asked as he looked at his phone and saw it was already half past five.
“Almost three hours, the MT must have been pretty tiring huh?” Amanda answered as she sat beside him while watching a broadcast discussing some recent interesting developments happening in Fate Online.
“It certainly was, even for me who’s incredibly fit, I was relieved when we finally left that place” Michael replied with a laugh.
Amanda chuckled and said, “Why? Did you guys train like in the army instead of having fun?”
“How did you know? Are you psychic?!”
Michael tried to tease her, but it backfired as he was met with a sharp glare from her.
“Nevermind”
“…”
“So, I haven’t been able to properly play the game for an entire week. I’m guessing you’ve already managed to catch up with my level babe?” Michael asked after a few seconds of silence.
