VRMMO: Alter Online - Chapter 40

*Swoosh!

Mark who was in full armor headed towards the north where Alexa and Mark group of fans were, right now, they were still about 15,000 blocks away so according to Mark’s estimation and their travel time, it would take about a day for Mark to reach them and about 2 days to go back.

The reason why Mark will be able to reach them very fast is that they were able to tame horses earlier, and they tamed about 8 horses!

Mark took the fastest horse among the group and put an iron horse armor on it, Mark also brought enough provision to last him for a week of travel, most food and water, and also some hay for the horses to eat.

And Mark planned to reach them before night time, Mark also wanted to see who were the people would be coming to them, he may sound like he was fine with them joining their group but Mark had lived and known how harsh life could be.

Yes, not the world nor the universe, the one who controls nature is life, and life also controls every being, and that is how the seven deadly sins were born, well, that was what his teachers said to him but it sounded logical so Mark accepted it.

And since Alter Online held many secrets, there may be some people who come with malicious intentions or even spy on them, since Nevermore is the known top 1 player of the whole Alter Online, and his exposure to the public is too much.

Mark literally became the face of Alter Online and also the target of many people, Merlin did say that, until you attend the Gaminghub Academy, your identity is still not exposed, this may cause Mark’s peaceful three days to be disturbed and he surely won’t like that.

By noon, Mark reached the vicinity of the snow biome where Alexa and the others were, just as he was about to proceed, he immediately felt a killing intent, Mark jumped down from his horse and parried away the incoming arrow towards the horse.

*Ting!

The crisp sound of the iron sword and arrow colliding with each other resounded.

*Swoosh!

Mark immediately dashed towards where the arrow came from and before he even reached the place, a few more arrows came flying towards Mark, and all of them were fired in quick succession.

*Swoosh!

“An expert huh?” Mark dodged the arrows and immediately deduced the skill level of his opponent, anywho, Mark had high agility stats so dodging the arrows was easy but his opponent was not simple.

*Swoosh!

Mark tilted his head at the last second and dodged the arrow coming for his head, ‘This style…’ Mark immediately realized something, Mark jumped away from his position avoiding the more incoming arrows.

He tilted his body in the air and while on the motion, he pulled out two needles from the pocket on his waist and threw it towards the snowy woods, the needles flew at a very fast speed and as if it found their target, a figure jumping by the tree branches were moving there.

The figure was wearing a thick robe and saw the incoming needles but the figure was in the middle of the air and doesn’t have a way to dodge, but at the last moment, it swiftly turned its body mid-air and grabbed its robes, and swiped it towards the needles.

Mark who just landed on the ground saw the figure but before he could speak, the ground beneath him crumbled revealing a dip pit with wooden spikes below, “Damn!” Mark cursed, he unsheathed the sword on his waist and stabbed it towards the walls.

*Crumble!

The iron sword easily dug itself on the walls giving Mark something to hold, Mark then made the iron sword bent and propelled himself to fly outside the pit, Mark landed on the ground and the figure was already waiting for him with its arrow aimed at him.

But Mark was no pushover, he pulled out a spear made of iron from his inventory and blocked the incoming arrow.

*Ting!

Mark landed on the ground and was finally able to see the figure properly, it was a little girl holding a bow, she had silver-white hair, and her hair was tied in a ponytail, and what made her distinctive from the others was that she had white rabbit ears.

“So you are his daughter huh? Hooo… Old fox come out!” Mark yelled out.

“HAHAHA! as expected of you, little monster! my disciple didn’t even stand a chance” the snow just beneath the rabbit girl bulged out and a figure emerged out from it, it was a middle-aged man with a huge scar on his face, he had a white wolf leather on his head and one thing that is also noticeable is that he also has rabbit ears.

“Uh… I always thought you want to be a human? why still stick being a rabbit even in-game?” Mark asked.

“Haha! I played this game to bond with my daughter of course!” the man laughed out.

“What is your ID we can’t be calling our real names here,” Mark said.

“I go by the name, White Reaper while my daughter goes by the White Rabbit,” White Reaper said,

“That’s great, I don’t have to introduce mine right?” Mark said.

“Of course! you are the most famous player Nevermore after all! Wahaha!” White reaper laughed.

“You haven’t changed huh? so when did you know I was going here??” Mark asked.

“Ahaha, I already have memorized the terrain 2,000 blocks away, and I immediately noticed it when I was watching your stream, coincidentally, my daughter is also a fan of yours” White Reaper laughed then suddenly turned serious, “Just a fan alright, I will hunt you down if you make any moves on my cute daughter, even if I -Guh!” White Reaper’s eyes turned red as he said in a deep tone but he was cut off as White Rabbit kicked him on his leg.

“Enough of that Dad! you are embarrassing!” White Rabbit yelled.

“Embarrassing!?” White reaper almost had a heart attack when he heard his daughter’s words.

‘Heh, to think the once-great hunter became an extreme doting father, times do really change fast’ Mark thought.
