Gods’ Impact Online - Chapter 407 406- Major Developments

“I still can’t believe Shay and Natasha are dead…” Victoria muttered, sitting at the pew beside Misha, who was the only female friend she knew in the real world.

“Yeah…”

“Shay was a douchebag, and Natasha was a kind girl. She was the one who helped me get together with Zach after we… I… broke up with him. Regardless, neither of them deserves to die like that.”

Misha bit her lips and looked at the altar before saying, “There are dozens of players dying every day, even more, when the game was just new. Now, everyone has gotten used to it and is playing with caution. And most players in the game now are skilled enough to survive.

That was not what I was trying to say…” Misha sighed and lowered her gaze. “Many players die every day, but it hits hard when someone you know dies. I can’t imagine how it would feel if someone close to us… dies.”

“Zach would have felt the same when he saw Aurora after the demon invasion,” Victoria stated.

“Yeah, but it’s different with Zach. He doesn’t show emotions to anyone and keeps hiding them. He will endure and endure, but never share his pain with anyone.” Misha chuckled wryly and muttered, “He has always been like that ever since we were kids.”

“You know him better than anyone here, don’t you?” Victoria asked.

“If you put it that way, then yes,” Misha nodded. “But we are not that close, though.”

“You know about Zach’s harem, don’t you?” Victoria asked Misha with a judging look on her face.

“Hmm? Harem? What does that mean?” Misha played dumb.

“Has anyone ever told you that you suck at lying?”

“Oh, shut up.”

“So? For how long have you known?”

“I have no idea what you are talking about.”

“Are you still going to pretend that you don’t know anything? Come on, any girl would find it suspicious if multiple girls are fawning over the same guy and living together with him,” Victoria remarked while staring at Misha.

“Argh! Fine. I knew about it.”

“Umm…” Victoria gulped down nervously and hesitantly asked, “What… what do you think about it?”

“Hmm?”

“Like… what are your thoughts on the harem? Do you find it repulsive or disgusting or whatever?”

“I don’t really think much of it.” Misha shrugged and said, “Why should I judge someone’s relationship? That makes no sense.”

“I guess… but do you think others would find it disgusting?”

Misha furrowed her brows and flicked her finger on Victoria’s forehead. fevl.c

FLICK!

“Ow! What was that for?”

“Why do you care about what others would think of your relationship? Since when did you become like this?”

“No… it’s just… anyone would hate being judged, right? What if they don’t accept you? I don’t care about me, but what would they think of Zach?”

SIGH!

“Believe me, that thought has never crossed Zach’s mind.

While Victoria and Misha were having a chat, Aurora and Ninia were busy making food for everyone.

Kayden had taken Elina and Noah for the dungeon expedition to clear his mind from Shay’s death. He wanted a distraction from everything and wanted to take out his pent-up frustration on the monsters.

Meanwhile, Zach was alone in his chamber with Aria. He wanted to discuss something important, and Aria was the only one capable of helping him on that matter.<novelnext> </novelnext>

A few minutes later, Zach and Aria came out of the room, but none of the girls asked what they were discussing alone in the room.

Zach talked with Victoria and Misha like normal and even helped Aurora and Ninia in the kitchen as though nothing had ever happened.

Once the food was ready, they all ate together like always.

After dinner, Zach gathered the girls as he wanted to make an announcement on something important.

“I have decided that we are not going to ascend for a while,” he stated.

“But why? Is there a problem with the… you know, the bypass trick?” Victoria asked with a curious and confused look on her face.

“No. I am going somewhere else,” Zach responded.

“Somewhere else? Are you planning to go alone?” Aurora asked.

“Yes.”

“May I ask where you are going, my Lord?” Ninia quipped.

After an eerie silence, Zach opened his mouth and said, “To Hell.”

Meanwhile, in the real world.

More and more deaths were reported, and everyone was distraught. They had no idea what to do and how to save their loved ones.

Erza had gotten her hands on a VR headset with the help of Leona, who was Erza’s archangel.

She had decided to enter Gods’ Impact and save Zach all by herself, but she was denied entrance when she tried to use it.

Gods’ Impact transformed the souls of the humans, but Erza was a God, and she had no soul.

Aria was able to enter because she used her special skill to clone her body using her powers, and she had entered the Gods’ Impact using a backdoor by connecting her domain with the game when it was just launched.

Erza had lost all her powers, so she couldn’t do any of that. She was frustrated, so she decided to take a long bath, leaving the VR headset unguarded.

Zoe knew everything, and she was dying to meet Zach, so she used it and entered the Gods’ Impact. When Erza returned from her bath and found Zoe’s body on the ground with a headset on top of her, she realized what she had done.

That day, she cried and cried. She begged Deus for help, but nothing could be done.

A few hours later, Shay’s death had become a headline on the internet and in every media. Since Shay was the son of the wealthiest man in the country and his family held power, Shay’s death was the nail in the coffin for the major power holders in the world.

Siesta— Shay’s sister, who saw the news, decided to use the VR headset to meet the love of her life— Zach.

She had also entered the Gods’ Impact. Two people, who Zach cared about, had entered the death game to meet him.
