Chapter 50: Time hindering cube

“Gaia Taneric is the one who made this?” Aries waved around Morris’s perfectly made potion whilst the Alchemist remained in awe with such results
“Follower Kros you’ve outdone yourself!! To think that out of all the followers that were aiding one newly recruited individual succeeded in finding a Genius. Alphas didn’t I tell you to be careful with my body? That’s not a problem Theodore, puehehehehehehhehe!!!” The mad alchemist and his Avatar were fighting with each other whilst Kros was confused only for his attention to be redirected to Aries
“Follower Kros make sure you watch over Taneric… he’s somewhat capable, it’s not bad if we gain some extra allies in our organization. In the meantime use your remaining three days to investigate this terrorist attack. Whether it was the institution or just a serial killer find their identity!” Aries placed the potion in his drawer and Kros left for his next mission
…
Christoper Morris’s current base; the Mansion
*Yawn*
What a wonderful day the birds were chirping the sun was shining and Morris was reaching for a fresh pair of undies in his drawer. “What a good night’s sleep,”
[I can’t understand why you like to sleep without any piece of clothing, I never once thought that once the day I’d see your junk. What a disgraceful player have I contracted myself with. At the very least cover that dagger equipped with not one but two priceless jewelry]
“What do you mean by that? I always sleep in my birthday suite… the reason why I won’t sleep in a cheap Inn is because it’s hella dirty!! If I notice even a single cockroach I won’t go nude,”
[Why are you even telling me that?]
“… why? Because you asked,”
[Unbelievable!!]
He entered the bathroom where he laid his body down in the bathtub filling It with a stream of water. Once he’s settled he later lowered its temperature when he applied a small amount of Mana to cast Ignite on a smaller scale. After doing so he prepared for his bath he conjured two clones, ordering them to help with his morning bath. Not only that he laze around in every moment, but he did so while he used his magic to increase his mastery even if it was for a little
[You can modify spells with such efficiency… whether it’s amplification or small-scale invocation. I’d say you’ve become more and more fluent with the world of magic]
“Really? I just did that shit because I’m lazy, in any case, it’s a wonderful way to start the day,” He opened his door he rigged with a sound nullification spell only to be met with bundles of noise originating from the living room
“Motherfuck!!!” His smile vanished and his eyes lost the slightest hint of life and later became lifeless filled to the brim with annoyance
[So much for a wonderful day ain’t it Morris?]
“You took the words out of my mouth,” He slowly walked down the stairs where he saw a lot of people who weren’t related to his mission
“Mr. Morris you’ve woke up just in time for all of us to finish checking our gear,” Blake greeted him who remained silent all the time he was spouting such a blissful set of words to quell his rage
‘Why the hell are those clowns here? What’s more, why is that psychotic woman here of all places!!? Who the fuck ruined my morning? Show me the culprit, I’ll murder his/her ass!!’
His cold blank gaze reflected his motive. It was clear he wanted to know why there was an uninvited guest in his base. What’s more a Red-haired girl reeking the smell of blood was pampering Kyo Min-soo without a care of his hostility
‘Hugo, Gale, Shin, Blake, Hyunsu, and lastly Airis… what the hell are they here for? Who invited them? That fucking noise was enough to piss me off, now I’m met with these guys?’
[Calm down Morris you’re letting your killing intent flow around your surroundings]
“Good morning Morris. It looks like everyone’s inside the living room we can now commence our joint training day,” Jin walked in the middle of his breakdown, and Morris concluded his situation after Jin appeared before him and looked straight into his eyes while he said those words
“God damn it Jin,” Morris collected his killing intent after he takes a cup of coffee
“Is that it…? You’re done releasing your anger? Huh, I thought you’d do something I don’t know destructive. I guess you woke up on the right side of the bed, or has it been that long since you slept in your birthday suit?” Jin takes a cube from his little inventory that could store his equipment
“I’m letting these three enter that cube since they know one of our members. But Airis… mind telling me why Airis is here in this weaponized house? I spent hours laying down those traps, how did she get here in the first place?”
“Long story short, It happened 2 hours ago,” Airis intervened with the two of them and started telling what happened from the start
…
2 hours ago
[I can smell your prey inside that house]
“How did Christ end up in a dump like this? Front doors rigged… guess I’ll enter the back door,” Airis felt the energy building up inside the house. It had an abundant amount of Mana hooked to a trap meant to activate if anyone else entered without the owner’s permission. She took a step back and assessed its pattern with the use of her skill RE𝒂ad updated st𝒐ries at n/𝒐/vel/bin(.)com
[This is your chance, Airis. There’s no other reason than your prey being hunted down if he’s staying in such a torn-down house]
‘She’s having the wrong idea as always. I can sense an illusion-type item that’s changing these places’ outward appearance. I do wonder why he’s so distant from me… it’s been 17 days since I last heard of his whereabouts, what are you planning Christopher?’
Airis slipped in through the back door with utmost focus centered on the pattern of Mana in her midst. She avoided every hidden trigger placed in the area that would have triggered the traps with a single mistake. Her flexible body proved to be a good counter to all of the problematic triggers lying in the area which she crossed over with a few moves
[Impressive as always… which makes me wonder why the two of us were not a match for that under-leveled player Christopher Morris?]
“You’re acting like a sore loser. The two of us are perfectly synced. I was in my best condition, and on top of that I wasn’t holding back my punches… it’s either I fall for his tricks, but that’s not possible. I had the upper hand, and we were badly beaten. Christ is just as rare as a diamond in the rough,” She walked closer to the living room undetected by anyone else except for Shin who sneaked up on her back
Shin was immediately detained with her neck caught by Airis’s powerful grip. “H-How? yo-you didn’t see me– Urgh!!”
“Little girl, didn’t your parents teach you to say hi before you meet someone new? I almost forgot but can the six of you stay put,” The rest who’d noticed her presence upon Shin’s detainment started to act upon seeing her face but they were unsuccessful
[System: You’ve been afflicted with player Velvet Airis’s skill Murderous eyes!! The pressure you are receiving is making your body shiver, you cannot move]
Airis’s black and plain eyes turned bloody red disabling the movements of the seven of them. One by one they all fell when she activated her eye’s true ability. Which was targeting their minds making them see all the slaughter she had committed. Soon they would’ve faint but a figure in their midst appeared and managed to calm her rage
“Nice to meet you. Velvet Airis, a gift for our first meeting. I heard that you’re looking for Morris?” Her attempts were put to a stop when Jin arrived along with one of Morris’s sweaty shirts that caught her attention to its fullest
[Easy their Airis. You shouldn’t drown yourself in your desires focus on your goals!]
Airis postponed her celebration and placed the gift she had received inside a small storage space before her sweet and loving personality came back after Jin neutralized her potential outburst
“Out of the people inside this room, you are the only exception… your body has a scent that only Christ would have. Are you perhaps his friend?”
“Correct. That idiot and I go way back to our childhood, maybe not but I met him when I was 13 and we’ve been a pair of idiots ever since. What can I help you with? If it’s Morris you’re after then wait for a while he’s a heavy sleeper, want some coffee?”
Back to the present
“And that’s how it all happened after a short chat and some introductions. All of us started to get along, somehow. I even promised to teach them a thing or two about fighting since you’re preoccupied with this little angel,” Airis held Quon in her arms while she continued to pamper her with such care
‘Come to think of it I remembered writing her as an extrovert. But she doesn’t believe in “personal space” now that I saw her pampering both Quon and Kyo. It’s not a bad thing that she’s on our side, for now at least… I take it back, you’re good at controlling them without me Jin, even snagged a teacher for Esther and Kyo I’ll gladly invite her to the cube,’
“Ok everyone let’s not waste any more of our precious time, do you think we’ll get a second chance at this it’s time to enter the cube,” Jin activated the cube which grew into a 7 feet tall and 5 meters door wide enough for all of them to cross over
It led them to an open space that could be altered with a flick of Morris or Jin’s finger in a matter of seconds. The blank space shifts to a lush grassy area, to a heated desert. The space inside the cube could be turned into anything the wielder desires, and that wasn’t its greatest function
[Time hindering cube – A cube that can make a sealed space, time moves incredibly slow compared to the outside world after the players leave the space the cube will disappear]
“Okay folks, may I have your attention!? All of us, and when I say “us” I meant my group but because someone invited a few faces I’m not gonna tell her name. You guys will be given some training camp experience. Jin and I will be busy with crafting and doing some alchemy if you guys have any complaints get the fuck out the doors right over there,”
[System: The player Christopher Morris has created a doorway leading to the outside world]
Morris manifested a door leading to the outside world and not a single one of them left the area which made him close the door upon finishing their preparations
“What are you waiting for? All of you get moving. This isn’t a summer camp lay the tent and grill the food move your asses people!!” Jin changed the structure of the cube to a different environment it turned into a dark and cold forest inhabited by monsters
[System: Landscape has been changed from normal to hell difficulty, an artificial monster has been added! The temperature has been lowered, and the creator of the structure Jin and Morris wishes for your greatest results after this test]
