《The King of Avarice》Chapter 5 : PWN3r420
Advertisement
"I'mmmmmm alive!!" I yell when I appear on a street.
Well, getting weird looks from everyone sucks, but I thought it was a perfect thing to say.
Alright so let's go explore first off.
"*whisper* haha look at that noob, walking around like a dope. Did you hear what he said?" I heard from a random guy while walking away from the spawning point.
So, of course, I yell back. "Hey you're a noob too, dumbass; at least I'm not some dolt like you!"
"What did you call me?" He yells back.
He looks to be one of those “hero” characters who made himself look better than average, I don't see a point in doing this.
"I called you a dumbass and a dolt, bitch, what you going to do about it?" I continue to yell back!.
"Ok, you wanna go bro!" He says this as he approaches, putting up his fists as he goes.
You have been requested to duel with PWn3r420. In a duel you cannot kill your opponent and neither side will be punished by law of the city, but watch your back. Your opponent may have friends. If you win you get 1/10 of the Rin on your opponent and 1 duel coin. For every duel coin, you earn will increase your rank. Right now you are Unranked with [0] wins.
Accept|Decline
"Fine I'll go, but once I beat your pansy ass don't go crawling to mamma!" I put my fists up as well after clicking accept.
And you may think this is the stupid or dumb thing to do, thinking the real enemies are the silent ones, and you would be right. He has friends and others are watching, two are in the shadows like sharks, and three others are already moving around like vultures. If I beat this guy, it shows I am stronger, and the vultures will back off. I may still be attacked by the Sharks, but my chances of 2 v 1 or 1 v 1 is better than a 3-5 v 1 situation.

"Alright let's see if you can back up what you got, you little punk!" I say, keeping an arm's reach away from him. I need to add, what's with his name pwn3r420, is he a little kid? I thought this game was R-18?
He throws a punch and I move out of the way. It’s so weak and easy to dodge it's kinda sad, that's how bad it is. I notice this because I have been dealing with troublemakers in my casino for the last 10 years.
I then throw a punch, hitting his gut and knocking him down.
-50 hp Crit
(Normally would be 30; base attack is 5 and strength adds a multiplier according to its value)
Which takes him down to half health surprisingly. Seems he only has 100hp, and the surprising part isn't I did that much damage, it's that he isn't knocked out. Usually, my punch takes anyone down! I learned from an old friend awhile back “Always win with one punch, and if not 1 then keep fucking hitting.”
He seems to be stumbling, so I go in again, connecting with his jaw this time.
-49 hp Crit
Two crits in one fight, not bad. This realism is great too, it feels like I'm actually fighting, the adrenaline also seems real but sadly.
Congratulations Nicholas Flamel you have beat PWn3r420 in a duel, you gain 2 gold and 1 duel coin. This places you in 10,124th place with [1] Win.
After I won, the vultures started to focus on pwn and his friends started to focus on me, lastly one shark left but there was still one hanging around, I didn't want to do this but…
"You all saw me beat pwn, but does anyone else challenge me? If not, I shall leave and continue on with my game."

One of the sharks approached, although I was hoped he wouldn't get too close.
"I don't want to fight you, I would like to invite you to my guild. The game has only been going for a few hours now, but we are an old group, would you like to join the [White Watchers]"
"Hahaha, I’m already being recruited..? Listen pal: I would like to, but I'm starting something bigger than a guild. If you want, you can join me, though."
"Hmm, that's interesting. We will watch you Nichols but sadly I am loyal. Have a good day."
That was a new experience, okay, then let's move on. "So anyone else has something to say?"
"No? good." By the time I left, There was already a crowd of 50-or-so people.
"Alright, let's go find a box and the center," I mutter as I walk off.

It’s not until a blossoming friendship is born after years of isolation that he must do everything he can to protect those who he has betrayed, and face his complicated past as dangerous circumstances rise in war torn Plod. ————————— This fiction is rated R. Nudity is present. Violence, profanity, trauma, suicide, mental illness, and disturbing elements are prevalent. Gore is described in graphic detail that may be disturbing. The story is very, very depressing. Do not read if you are sensitive by heavy subject matter, including themes of suicide. It is a tragedy, which means that it has dark and disturbing psychological content that is intended for a mature audience. Do not read the whole thing in one sitting, as it may be emotionally draining. Read in small sections. Do not read if you like happy, light novels. Read at your own risk. Haitian Creole and Jamaican Patois will be sprinkled in rarely from time to time. The opinions and thoughts of the characters are not mine. If you are sensitive to traumatic content, please do not read. Do not read if you are sensitive to mental illness, genocide, graphic violence, or the reality of war. I ask that while you critique this story, you do it in a respectful way. If anyone harrasses me/ tries to discourage me from writing, I will report you. All feedback, critique and suggestions are welcome; feel free to comment. I am trying to grow and improve my writing, so constructive criticism behind advanced negative reviews are appreciated. Due to the fact that I am a college student and working part time , some chapters may come a little later than usual. If anyone writes reviews that don’t have anything to help me improve the story and attack me, the author, for choosing to write about these dark themes, kindly please leave, because they should not even be reading, let alone be anywhere near anyone's fictions. I am also interested in any ideas people may have for the drafting process. In other words, if you want to tear apart my story, do it properly, please. Negative reviews that respectfully point out any plot holes, inconsistencies with my characters, or writing style are well appreciated. Anyone attacking me personally will be reported and blocked, especially as the fiction gets longer. I do not need negativity or harassment. For those who take the time out of their day to read and offer helpful feedback, I truly appreciate you all, and you are the best. You have been warned. Read at your own risk. Thank you.
