Akaichi The previous chapter was edited a little to control the tension...
Margret slowly descended into the cellar, using a torch she got from the vault as a light source.
Standing a few steps above ground she frowned as she looked at the alien monsters’ carcasses thrown on the ground and the metallic skeletons pinned to the walls.
“What if they moved?” she asked herself… “If that happens, I will turn from a rich slut to a dead slut…” she pondered… she didn’t want to end up as a dead slut.
Thinking for a while, she took three bottles of soul perfume from her ring and then began throwing them around the cellar. Covering the entire place with it.
She stepped up again, looked at her mechanical watch, timed five minutes, and waited…
Victor told her that the soul wine weakened the soul, and those monsters were definitely undead. If they had any souls left, the perfume should weaken them right?
Of course, Margret was wrong because those things didn't breathe!
Finishing with that, she slowly took off her clothes, held the mace gave her before entering the dungeon in her hand then slowly stepped down…
Nothing happened.
She activated her charm skill…
Nothing happened… Still, she was not sure, what if those skeletons were females? What if they were gay?
Thinking for a few moments she poked one of the carcasses with her club then stepped back…
Nothing happened…
Margret frowned… Although there was nothing wrong here, her intuition was telling her to be careful, and the feeling that something was wrong was getting stronger.
She always trusted her intuition. The last time she ignored it, she ended up with a swollen butt!
She was unsure of what to do… Sure, she could leave all of this, but she was reluctant to do that… No, she better leave.
Making up her mind, Margret quickly stepped back… It was too late.
From the 17 golden skeletons pinned to the walls threads of black gas suddenly appeared then in a flash surrounded her... They began to form strange shapes that quickly collapsed after mixing with the pink perfume floating around the room.
Margaret could hear them curse as they collapsed into smoke again then ignoring the protective talismans, the 17 entered her mind’s soul space to seek shelter in there!
Inside they began to fight! She didn’t see them but heard their voices of angry shouts of murder. All of them had been here for ages and they wanted her body! Too bad that gas outside had made them weaker.
Margret quickly sat down in a meditative posture as blood seeped from her eyes…. The pain was intolerable, but it was nothing compared to what she suffered in her past life…. She quickly remembered what Victor told her about how to protect her soul.
She firmly closed her eyes and began to dive into her soul space where she began to build a defensive castle in her imagination…. Margret had no experience in this at all, but she tried her best!
Slowly as they fought, all of the gas threads were devoured by the strongest one that made its way toward Margret’s soul which was now surrounded by a flimsy cartoon castle that fell in seconds! And Margret’s soul froze in its place! She failed
The gas thread that showed its true form as a giant red-eyed demon made his way to Margret's frozen soul and then tried to bite her off... It tickled... That thing had the teeth of a marshmallow monster...
“Vasattkl opws tote w,” The demon said, strangely enough, Margret understood what it said… It was cursing and saying that she should just die… That soul perfume she scattered had affected it making it squishy! It couldn't affect Margret's solid soul!
Feeling that the demon was weak, Margret decided to struggle again, but the demon simply stepped back away from her, frowning a little he began to slowly draw a symbol in midair.
As he drew this symbol his body began to become smaller and smaller as if drawing this thing consumed tons of energy!
Margret tried to interfere, but she couldn't move her soul around here… Some strange suppressing force was affecting her. She could only watch as the demon finished his work.
Although the demon shrunk so much that he was no larger than a small mouse, he wasn’t bothered. He flicked his finger, making that symbol slowly hover over Margret.
He couldn't eat her, so he was taking ownership!
Just when Margret thought all was lost a strange similar symbol flashed in a blue light behind her! it made the demon symbols shake then pause… Margret knew that it was the symbol Victor activated that day. The one that he told her he drew on her talisman.
It was an ownership symbol.
“Kar Vegar terra!” The demon mocked as he made a shape in his hand, forcing his symbol above the other one. He was going to write it.
Margret watched nervously as the two symbols overlapped, then… The demon’s symbol shattered!
“What?” The demon asked just as the energy from the shattered symbol got absorbed by Margret. This was her body after all.
What does insufficient authority mean? The demon wondered. When he ate the other 17 demons he also acquired all of their authority! All of them were once the grandest wizards in the world!
He had an Authority of 1741046!
Although the demon didn’t understand what just happened, he firmly decided to leave, he was now too weak to face another soul!
Unfortunately, it was too late for him! Margaret's soul which was now 100 times larger than him had already set her angry eyes on him. All the shackles that stopped her suddenly vanished as she caught him and then slowly pushed him into her mouth.
He tasted like sh*t... Old sh*t.
…
Rebecca’s sword struck down swiftly, hitting nothing but dirt as Victor used all that was left of his strength to roll to the side.
“Bastard, stay still!” she said as she prepared to strike again… seemingly she wanted a clean cut!
Before she could strike again, she felt a threat coming from behind, so she turned and swung her sword to parry the stone that was thrown at her!
“Margret you …. slut! ….What are you doing…” Mana who was out of breath and in very bad shape said as she entered the clearing running toward Rebecca and then attacking her with a wooden stick.
Rebecca easily parried intending to cut the stick and Mana with it, too bad the sword simply slid on the stick, earning Mana a hit on Rebecca's Ribs.
The stick was a branch that fell from one of the trees after the last explosion, it was tougher than steel!
Rebecca growled in pain but didn’t pause, the attack was not strong enough to really hurt her as Mana was simply very weak now.
Rebecca, who noticing that, smiled then attacked back, this time she waited until Mana parried before using her iron-covered boot to kick Mana in the chest, sending her tumbling into the ground with a couple of broken ribs.
Mana who was already drained didn’t have the energy for a long fight! She just winced in pain as the two girls who were saved by Victor hurried to her side, giving her a healing pill.
“Oh… Do you think you can defeat me with your wimpy skills? You better stay in your place and be a good girl or I swear your end would be crueler than his!” Rebeca asked in a mocking voice, then swiftly looked back and pushed her sword down into victor’s thigh, he was trying to crawl away.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….”
What she didn’t expect was that in the next moment, Victor who was screaming in pain moved in a flash and tried to prick her leg with a needle. It was the same one he used on Gustave and was still in his fist.
Too bad, because of the paralysis, he was too slow and she managed to step away in time and then use her other leg to step on his fist hard making him drop the needle. She wanted to break it, but she couldn't!
“You sneaky bastard sure have some tough bones…” she said.
“Can … can I tell you one thing first…..” Victor said with difficulty as he watched her raise her sword.
“What? Wanna beg for mercy?” she asked as she stayed vigilant.
“I just want to know how dare you to kill a Von Weise heir!” He shouted, making Rebecca frown and then start cursing as she looked back. A few players entered the clearing… They seemed to have been hiding earlier and decided to enter when they heard his words.
“You guys seem to be having fun!” A skinny man suddenly said, he seemed to be the leader of this group.
“Guys! Save me and I will reward you handsomely! “ Victor suddenly shouted shamelessly. “I am a Von Weise heir !" he repeated!.
“Sh*t!” Rebecca cursed inwardly, why was her luck this bad. Now even if she killed Victor, those guys would surely grab her to claim a reward from the family… She was not sure that her disguise would last long enough until she exited the dungeon.
“We heard you, young master…. We are here to help!” The skinny man said as he turned and looked at Mana who was frowning and the two girls who were a little surprised.
“Girl… Let this little brother go….” the man said as he turned back and looked at Rebecca.
“Don’t come any closer!” Rebecca, who thought of something, suddenly said as she put the sword on Victor’s neck.
The men stopped… Shit, if she killed him now they would take a part of the blame… and now that he asked for their help they can’t just walk away.
What shit luck of this? They should have waited until she finished!
“How about a deal?” She asked as she bit her lip.
“What?” He asked.
“Why don’t you just ignore what is happening here… I will share the bounty with you…” She said after some thinking. “You only have to eliminate the witnesses…” She said pointing to the girls with her eyes.
“Bounty?” the man asked.
“He has a $100,000,000 bounty on his head! As long as no one knows, we all win!” she said, slightly moving her sword and leaving a purple bloody mark on Victor’s neck.
“Oh….” The man was tempted, really tempted. He had no way to save Victor... And the reward was more tempting.
He turned and looked at the three men who were with him. They met here so he didn’t really trust them. “What do you guys think?” He asked…. If they said yes, they would be considered accomplices in the crime. And they would never rat out!
“Ah… ok…” “Yes…” Maybe…. Oh… Ok, I am in!” The men didn’t really have a choice so they agreed. Little did they know that their boss had already planned their end.
“Get the Girls… “ the man said, making his men run and surround Mana and the two girls.
“Kill him!” he turned and told Rebecca who cursed inwardly…. This man was smarter than she thought.
“I can’t trust you. We do it together…” She said to the man as she fixed the sword on Victor’s neck. If the man tried anything funny, Victor would die and he would be the cause.
The man frowned then nodded moving toward her… If he could, he would kill her, but he didn’t know from where he could claim the bounty, so he had to listen to her for now.
“How dare you!” Victor yelled angrily… “This is your last chance… Help me and this young master will spare you! Don’t trust this b*tch!” he added as he looked at his mana bar, it filled up slightly, he would be able to use his disguise to run if he rolled around, but attacking would be impossible. And Mana would surely be in danger.
"Come on! " Victor cursed inwardly, why was it taking so long?
Damn it, this was what he gets for being overconfident. Maybe he can create some chaos and earn some time until…
Victor slowly formulated a plan. It was very dangerous with a success probability of 11%. But he would rather risk it than live his entire life with the guild of not being able to save Mana. He had already sworn not to let any of his loved ones suffer again.
The man seemingly made up his mind and put his hand on the sword with Rebecca. Then, together, they cut down on Victor’s neck.
Too bad, the Sword only passed through him as Victor’s body turned into smoke!
“Fuck!” Rebecca cursed.
“Fuck you! Were you tricking me?” the man asked nervously as he kept his hand on the sword…
“Let go, that bastard is still here somewhere, he is badly hurt!” Rebecca said, not letting go of the sword too. “If that guy escaped, both of us would be in deep sh*t”
“Let go of the sword and I will believe you!” the man said.
“Damn you!” Rebecca said, letting go of the sword and jumping back, this guy was stronger than her.
The man seeing that Rebecca cooperated, decided to prioritize disposing of Victor.
“Kid… You better come out…” he said,
“Use the girls! That red-haired one is his maid!” Rebecca said, making the man nod and Look at Mana who began cursing… This was the first time she cursed this much in her life!
“Margret you whore, bitch, slut, piece of sh*t…. The young master trusted you!”
“Sorry, I like money more… and his ***** was too small for my taste!” she said, making Mana pause and frown… No, it wasn’t! Was this really Margret?
“Hey, kid… If you don’t show up, I will start raping your maid in front of you…” the man said after thinking. He slowly headed toward Mana, kicked the stick out of her hand then ripped the clothes she was wearing. She tried to struggle, but to no avail, she was too tired to fight back.
Victor cursed as he slowly began to roll toward Mana, he had already taken an antidote pill, but it needed time to work!
His only choice was now to slowly approach Mana and use his disguise on her before pulling her away, he didn’t have enough energy to disguise the entire area… Sadly he knew that the man and Rebecca were expecting this, so he needed to be extra careful.
Suddenly a beeping sound startled not only Victor but everyone in the dungeon.
| SYSTEM NOTIFICATION 1# QUEST HAD BEEN COMPLETED THE SKELETON QUEEN HAD BEEN ELIMINATED. |
“Ohhhh….” Rebecca and the man paused and frowned, not realizing that this notification spelled their end.
Akaichi Oh, another cliffhanger.... some things in this chapter might change...
Enjoy!
Now that the wedding arc is near, how about a little poll!
