Chapter 48: The perfect scam [2]
Well, this is chaotic, I never thought I would create a stampede while I’m taking care of these NPCs. Why don’t you guys head over to Esther’s side of the plan I’m mostly finished on my side I also heard my editors there. Well as long as Jin’s there I guess I wouldn’t have to deal with any sort of major crises he’s someone I can put my trust on
With a loud explosion that confirmed the success of his mission, Esther was watching over the building at a safe distance, waiting for his signal before she could move to the second part of the plan
|[Esther it’s going pretty well, open the scroll that I connected to the magic circles I placed throughout the place. Sun and Moon will be approaching your destination at a later time]|
“Understood I’ll make my move,” Esther triggered all of the spells that Morris placed whether they were distant or near
[What makes you trust that person without a single doubt of his motives]
“It’s you, I never heard your voice after I got caught in that Goblin camp why are you here? I remember you terminated our contract yet I can still hear you,”
[Is that what you believed? Im here to help you don’t you want to be my Avatar again? I’m willing to forget your failure]
Before they left for the trials
“There’s this one time or another I heard a voice that was connected to my mind, is that a deity?” Esther fell to the ground after she said those words
‘I never heard of something like this, her deity only spoke to her a few times and she vanished. the weirdest part is that she already had her Blessing at such a young age, a story that I do not know of if that’s the case the only thing I could say is,’
“Don’t accept her invitation! Esther no matter what happens… you can’t become an Avatar to your previous deity,” Morris reached for Esther’s hand after they concluded their match
“Why not? Even though I didn’t get a lot of missions completed I was told to be one of the best Avatar she acquired,” Esther replied standing back on her feet
“That’s the reason why you shouldn’t accept her offer, the fact that you’ve become so violent and furious when you activated her Blessing. It means it’s not suited for your fighting style you’re the opposite of your deity, still, it’s up to you. If you want to become her Avatar just remember that it might destroy you,” Morris climbs up the stairs that lead to the store that was crowded with a ton of customers Visjt n𝒐velbin(.)c𝒐m for new updates
Back to the present
[System: You’ve declined a deity’s invitation]
“No matter what you offer to me, I won’t let you become my deity, never again even if I can’t get another chance to get one,” Esther blocked her previous deity call making her continue to the area where Morris’s spell circle was triggered
“It’s Sun and Moon they’re fighting the guards tasked with guarding the company, I need to help them, Physical boost!!!” Esther increased her speed along with her strength for a short period before she made her way to the battlefield changing her appearance to a different form
[System: You’ve used an exclusive skill that’s only available for your role shroud of darkness, you’ll be engulfed with a shadow that will hide your true appearance]
Every swing of the guard’s blades or their useless ranting, favored her situation the noises coming from the battlefield made her able to sneak from behind. allowing her to strike the overwhelming number of their opponent before they could realize her
[System: The player Esther Landers has activated the skill [Basic sword arts]; frontal stab]
Back to the building
The NPCs along with Morris are hiding in the emergency room which was built in case of a meltdown
[System: the forgotten sage is using its authority to communicate with the player through his mind]
[How long am I going to pretend that your hiding spot isn’t noticeable if this was a real crisis the killer already found them all]
‘Stop with your nagging and do your part aren’t we doing this to capture that Alchemist bastard? We need to investigate where he is and who his Avatar is, well that time will come just be patient. Also, do you still remember your lines, you need to know your lines for the next part,’
[What was it again? I kind of forgot about half of its content. Don’t worry I’ll adlib I don’t you know I’m very good at acting?]
Morris placed his palm on his head dealing with his deity’s forgetful personality, he looked through Esther’s situation. The link of his soul through his familiars permitted him to share his vision to his advantage. He witnessed her overpowered by the guard’s large numbers. Seeing this with his own eyes he made a call to their order teammates who were available to accompany Esther
‘She’s pretty reckless if I didn’t look at her situation she could’ve been captured by the guards. Sage your character is the rumored Grim Reaper the one that I made while we were killing off those kidnappers. You have an injury that can only be cured with the help of an oh-so-knowledgable and handsome Alchemist,’
[Yes that’s the one you told me, I can remember what we’re going to do for Act 2. Also, do I have to mention the handsome part? That sounds quite narcissistic on your side don’t you think?]
“Mr. Gaia, what are we going to do? our communication artifacts aren’t working it’s like something’s blocking its signals,” Kros panicked while the others plugged his mouth with a piece of cloth when they heard some footsteps coming from the other side of the door
“Ignite kehahahaha I finally found you it looks like our game of hide and seek ends here,” Sage tricked the Npc thinking that he’d shoot the Mana that he gathered on his palm
“What is it that you want? Money? Potions? Oh, are you here to get all freaky with all of us from the get-go?” Morris came out of the crowd walking closer to Sage while they acted their part
“Mr. Gaia! This isn’t the time to joke around!?” Kros tug his lab coat in
“Oh, hoh looks like someone has a brain amongst all of these fools, this is what I want kid I need an Alchemist that’s smart enough to craft me a difficult potion to make,” Sage tossed a paper filled with a solution for a complicated potion
“Do you think that we have anyone who knows how to make this all of the senior employees are on their break we’re just a group of newly hired employees,” Kros replied to Sage’s demand only for his actions to be unacceptable making him point his spells towards them
“Wait a minute this potion I can make it as long as you promise me that you’ll let the others go I’ll help you,”
“Mr. Gaia you can’t–” Kros’s advancement was put to a stop with a wave of Sage’s finger knocking him back to the crowd with a pillar
“Silence you good-for-nothing waste of a human being. Very well I’ll agree to your proposal I’m not a fan of murder it’s just my profession. Lead the way Alchemist brat,” Sage enclosed the room with Earth array while the two of them made their next move
