《The Worst》Chapter 31 - Vigilante & Game Master
Advertisement
Before the Chapter I could like to answer a few questions about the chapter before, I thought about it some more and in the end I think it was no memory loss at all the truth was it was more of a time disjunction. His mind worked too fast at the moment so he heard her speaking so slowly that her words were like gibberish, while he simply spoke too fast and begun eating letters.
His powers then were Telekinesis, the power to move objects with his mind,
Psymetry and mind reading were however were not his real power, his real power will be described in the chapter that follows, its something a little different but since the game didn't register the power and he had tinkered with his capsule it was translated into Psychometry and mind reading.
P.S.
Please enjoy the Chapter and comment on any mistakes or dislikes on how the story advances, truth is there are only 8 chapters to go, till the end of the novel so thanks for reading.
=====================================================================================
When he woke up it was around midday and he only woke because of a call. Today Bob was released from the hospital and Nancy called him to celebrate with him Bob's full recovery. Chris only asked if Merry would come and was delighted to hear that she would.
Chris put on his best casual wear and gave a call to Bob whose number he learned from Nancy.
"I hear you are once more as healthy as a bull"
"Well It wasn't a big deal by the way what was that accident we heard of you went through"
"Nothing big, just some childish pranks from Merry, she loves to tease me and is afraid I will be angry at her or get back at her"
"Sounds like her, and here we thought you had a fight or something more going on"
"By the way the police said that they have caught the thugs who attacked me, it even seems someone paid them really good money to attack me"
"If they say it was me or Merry give them a good punch from me, I'm sure some of your competitors are really happy with your hospitalization"
"They sure are but having the best doctors on my side sure was helpful but I'm more thankful towards Nancy who has been visiting me frequently I think that for the first time in my life I've found real love"
"Don't tell it to Merry, I want her to hear it at your wedding day as a surprise"
"So you do have a wish to come back at her it seems, well I don't mind it'll be funny, anyways is there anything else you want"
Chris told him his plan and Bob agreed to it, It wasn't anything elaborate just one tiny phone call from him.
"And don't tell her about the thugs, it will only bring back bad memories"
"If you say so Mr good husband"
Said Bob at the end before they hung up their phones.
Chris had a small change in plans now. He first entered Allastar where he created as many Items as he could and then used Mage's last wish which deleted his character.
There were 100 Special starting rewards but he was in-between three of them. One was a tablet that strengthened all spells, The second was a spell that allowed him to create a small pocket dimension and the last was a crystal orb that opened a dimensional gate allowing him to travel in between close dimensions.
He took the strength skill since it would be used by all his clones as well and he named his new character Demonym.

He still had all his Items since he had put them in his vault but only a 10% of all his stats now remained. His Darknym clones could teach him essential skills if he wanted to and all his known spells were already made into spellbooks in advance. He only lacked professions now.
"Dragonym I want you to change my race"
"And what race do you want me to make you?"
Said Dragonym already suspecting the answer.
"I want something of a half-demon so that I can use magic, you can can just summon a demon or two so that we can see their soul structure"
They passed a few hours until Darknym found the demon he wanted, a succubus. They had the power to raise the pain level of their victims as high as 10%. Dragonym taught him all the skills anew and the mage profession as well. The girls in the harem for some reason were more afraid of Dragonym, his clone, than him who was now a half-demon half dragon. Darknym chose the dragon because of the Mp regeneration, although there probably was some other race that offered the same. Chris could see many girls from the prisons being in the palace, it was probably Dragonym's doing since he left the management of the upper tower to him.
"I sent Veralial to the glass prisons, she is too bitchy for my tastes"
Said the ancestral dragon clone.when he inquired.
"Whatever just don't forget to look after the City outside, although we have four and a half months left I wouldn't want to return and find it in ruins"
"I will be at the casino if you need me"
The dragon said as he teleported away keeping the lost treasure.
'Just perfect, now I don't even have the lucky ring but who cares my Mp are as high as when I didn't create all those Items and I have the telekinesis and other psychic powers now, not to say about the little extra from enhancing my capsule a little, although I will need even more enhancements before I can execute my plan'
Chris trained a little over two hours before he left the game and went to change, they were to meet Bob at six and would party throughout the night.
He took a taxi and met with Bob,Nancy and Merry, he didn't know the rest of the girls around Bob but it was eight who made up his Destos girl group in the Clear Waters. Bob had reserved a nightclub all to themselves, he awaited a few more people but the main actors were all there.
The party was chaotic, Chris just by touching each of the guests once knew all of their most hidden secrets and desires. He had only one person who would stay away from him by all means and clinch to Bob's side and that was Merry.
Time passed them by and all the guests had went home only the ten girls and two men remained once more.
Merry was now sleeping on Bob's back peacefully, Chris touched her and in an Instance saw her most hidden secrets and desires. He smiled slightly as he put his jacket on her uncovered back before going to the bar for another drink.
"Shall we dance?"
=====================================================
Merry's POV
Merry was happy about Bob and more than willing to party with her friends, her only problem was that Chris would be there. On the other side what could he do with all those people around, unless he wanted to embarrass himself or even worse embarrass her.

'He might be a lowlife but he wouldn't go so far, she had met him a few times before but she didn't cut him as an idiot who would publicly humiliate his own bride'
Was what she thought of him
At the party he was so clumsy he had bumped into all the guests at least once, Bob just laughed when Chris came close to touching touching her. She stayed fully focused on him all night, he didn't drink at all, only when Bob asked him to drink did he drink a glass of vodka and coughed it all out as if it was poisoned, the guests just laughed at him and went on their own ways.
She was now almost asleep on top of Bob who was already seeing his third dream by then. Suddenly she saw Chris approaching them, he then gave her a pat on the back and covered her with his cheap but warm coat.
'Maybe I have misjudged him'
she thought but could not close her eyes just yet, it was like a persistence game of whom will first fall asleep.
She saw strange things, she saw the barman flying in the air with a gun, three people coming from the back door only to go back the same way as if pushed by a strange force. The last thing she remembered was seeing Chris beating the crap out of the barman for some reason, she just took it all as a dream.
In the morning, seeing the nightclub full of people in blue uniforms.
They were from the police taking in the barman and his accomplices as a gang who sold illegal sex tapes on the black market, they learned that Chris beat them all up and waited for the police to arrive before leaving the party.
The poor bastards had all gone crazy from the beating, they were afraid of their own shadow. They said something about seeing demons and being tortured if they didn't confess.
The police was more than happy to catch them, in truth they were wanted criminals that were hard to find if not impossible. Bob and the girls would have thanked Chris for what he did since they would probably be violated by the gang of four but Chris wasn't there anymore.
Bob Called his phone but he didn't pick up the phone. The police took some time to find the gang's storehouse but to their surprise every single one of their accomplices surrendered without even putting a fight. There were witnesses that said that a single man came before them and left shortly afterwards.
The police could Identify the person as Chris, the person who gave them the phone call and left without them noticing. If not for him beating up the four men at the nightclub they had no other way to call him to the police station without causing an uproar with the public opinion.
=========================================================
Inspector Angelo POV
"Why did you beat the crap out of the barman and his accomplices?"
"He eyed my wife to be"
"And would you beat the crap out of me as well if I eyed her"
"Why even ask, if you really did then I would first give your wife a call and then with her consent beat the crap out of you"
The officer next to the inspector was laughing hard but the inspector still was in a fit of anger and puzzlement. He had either found the modern Sherlock Holms or a wanna be vigilante.
"Why were you at the storehouse?"
"I went to talk with their boss to make sure they would never bother my wife again"
"And how did you know where to find him?"
"The barman threatened me with his boss coming for me"
"And why didn't you call the police to arrest their boss?"
"Haven't you arrested them already?"
The police Inspector was perplexed to answer the question, they had indeed arrested them but since they were only traffickers the news were not such a big scoop like the Nightclub arrest, so it wasn't shown in the news.
"We have but that's not the problem, It's dangerous going to places like those, next time give the police a call and we will take over the rest"
The Inspector let him go with a warning and had his subordinate drive him home.
"By the way where did he ask you to drive him that took you so long to return?"
He asked his subordinate who had just returned.
"Around the suburbs of the city, a dangerous place to live if you ask me"
The officer answered.
"You idiot, as if someone who parties with the rich would live there, tell me the coordinates we are going for another arrest right now"
When they arrived at the location what they saw shook them to the core, it was a gang of at least forty men and some women swarming them asking them to arrest them for different charges they haven't even heard of and even some unsolved crimes.
They had no way of asking Chris what he did there since there was no witness seeing him enter or leaving the building. There was only one man they couldn't find, he was the boss of the organization, who was seemingly spirited away from the face of the earth.
There were no further leads but the same night another bunch of criminals were captured, one of whom was the spirited away boss of the group who had went completely crazy.
This time there was one witness that didn't go crazy at all, he was a police mole. an under cover agent that took years to reach the place he was now, a high standing member of their "organization".
He said they heard someone knock the door and then everything went blurry, he could see a man in a rabbit mask coming inside he touched each member one by one and they all screamed in terror. He couldn't move but when he was touched he felt nothing at all, the strange person just went on with touching the others.
The next morning a minister committed suicide after he confessed being a drug baron to his family after asking them to forgive him.
The Inspector gave Chris a phone call and only asked him one question.
"Have you anything to do with the death of the minister?"
"Are you crazy?"
He answered and hung the phone on his face.
========================================================================================
Chris POV
After taking care of the ones who tried to take advantage of Merry and his friends Chris found out another power of his mind. He could dominate the mind of others, making them do what he told them to, those that resisted felt a small pain but in the end succumbed to his orders.
He waited for the police and left in a hurry to log into Altgaia where he was to meet with Time, nothing went as planned however.
"Fuck Aurora, my spaceship is under attack, I will have to leave for space for at least a month, I might pay you when my spaceship is upgraded to a more stealthy one"
Chris was at a loss for words, he logged out and remembered that the gang had some accomplices at some storehouse. He went to see how strong his real world powers were. He payed a taxi and went inside. Of the gang member only a few members were present, he made them call the others and after gathering them all made them to want to go to jail as he did to the others.
He found a bunny mask in their HQ, the mask he kept cause he wanted to go even further up their ladder to try his powers even more, to test his own limits and gain full control of his own powers.
He was called by the police for the nightclub matter but the policeman was more interested in the storehouse than the nightclub which made him a little angry cause he himself cared more about the nightclub than the storehouse.
He touched the policeman and saw loads of investigations secrets, corruption and even his family and more private life.
That was how powerful his mind reading was or more like memory copying. He was let with a warning and the policeman drove him to where Chris wanted to go.
He had him drive him to the HQ of the two other gangs that where mere branches to this organization, he put on the bunny mask and begun experimenting on them, he couldn't believe how deep the roots went. He needed their boss to gain entrance to a hidden location near a police station where the higher tier was hidden. he even found an under cover cop whom he didn't harm at all. The boss he took with him he made him give a call to his own boss saying that he was going to go to prison.
The news of the minister committing suicide was a shock even for him but at least he had cut the problem as deep as the roots went or as deep as he could at the time being.
The strange Inspector asked him something really stupid on the phone. He Insulted him as best as he could and hung the phone, in reality he was still angry about something that started the whole incident.
Chris felt a crushing headache as if his head was about to explode, he went to the doctor who simply recomended him total bed rest for a week without using his psychic abilities for the duration.
Chris had no visits or phone calls from anyone but there was something even more serious he accidentally learned when he touched the doctor. He was slowly dying, his mind couldn't withstand the volume of the Information he had absorbed. Modern science had long recognized psychic abilities and although they were rare there were many ways of healing problems that occurred from them but his powers were just too strong to be solved by means available to them.
Normal medicine had a way to discard unwanted Information from the patient's mind, in his situation it would take a year to discard the information, he had collected too many info and too fast, his mind would keep up for a year.
He felt like a plant for three days trying to relax and just rest like the doctor had suggested. He woke the fourth day and while heading to the toilet in the middle of the night he heard a familiar song.
He followed the sound without thinking and slid on the wet floor.
"I'm so sorry"
The woman said while trying to help him to get up.
"You are Mona right?"
He asked while getting up without her help.
"Do you know me from inside the game?"
She asked puzzled.
"Only met you twice in-game but I didn't think you would look so different in real life"
In contrast to her game character Mona or rather Lisa was a plain looking woman, with brown hair and eyes. her face lacked the cosmetics other women used and she was wearing a cleaning lady's standard uniform of the company.
"Well, now you probably know why I never meet fans outside the game"
She said somewhat sad.
"Would you go on a date with me?"
Chris asked, there were many reasons he asked her but one was that he himself no longer wanted to have anything in common with Merry anymore after reaching for her secrets, where he had seen something that made him change his attitude towards her.
"Sorry but I don't go out with fans, they only want one thing anyway be it in or out of the game"
"Well If you change your mind you have me in your friends list, just send me a message"
"Sure"
She said somewhat happy touching his hand for a moment as she turned to leave.
The terrible headaches returned and he now knew her story as well but she was nothing like Merry, she had no big dark secrets or plots to kill him.
=====================================================================================
Mr.Seller's POV
Four days afterwards Merry's father arrived, the whole Sellers family was now gathered in the company's building in Merry's office. Chris was the last to arrive at her office. He saw Merry clinging to her mother's side and her brother whom he had only met once before, Benjamin Sellers the big boss of the company was sitting at the only desk of the office while the others were standing around him. His rounded belly and bald head giving him a snobbish rich man's appearance.
"I heard that you have serious intentions for my daughter, but I would like to hear everything from you"
Mr Sellers said after shaking his hand.
"Mother please, I really don't want him"
Merry pleaded her mother.
"Silence Merry"
Shouted her father.
"Lets hear him out first my dear"
said the mother while patting her gently.
"I no longer want to marry your daughter"
Chris stated with a serious tone leaving the whole family speechless, they were awaiting the exact opposite. The son had an impression of him being a lucky opportunist who planned to take over the company with this marriage. The Mother thought of him as a pervert who tried to take her daughter's happiness away. The father saw a future of his company in the face of a young man who in a few days would become a billionaire through gold exchange. In reality Sellers had the same Idea but due to some problems in the system he couldn't generate usable gold in Allastar and using the casino was not as easy as it sounded although they tried it three or four times, they lost to Deerg in the poker game and got deleted afterwards, Sellers cursed Fred's idea of giving an AI god control over currency and trade in Allastar, it made their created gold turn into rock after being discovered by the AI.
Benjamin Sellers in truth wanted to test Chris and then marry him to his daughter saying that he passed even if he failed. He had done a small research and found that Chris was full in love with Merry and even that Merry had hired an assassin to snipe him. He took care of the problem in secret.
"But why?"
Asked Mr Sellers dumfounded, what could have changed in the last week of his bed rest in the infirmary, or was it the party which was the only time the detectives he had hired lost track of Chris, firstly the detectives were lost in amazement when they saw his powers and when the police arrived they completely lost his tracks for well.
In His opinion at the time Chris was just drunk and was just releasing his stress or fell asleep somewhere on the street.
"There are three main reasons but first and foremost I'm sick and tired of her trying to kill me, did you know your daughter even hired an assassin to kill me using a billion on confirmation of my death, half already paid"
The elderly man wasn't as amazed as the other three who hadn't heard of Chris's psychic abilities but even he didn't know the price she had put on his head, it was a total embezzlement of their company's funds since she wouldn't be able to pay such a huge sum otherwise.
"Do you have any proof of your charges against my daughter?"
Said the father arrogantly knowing beforehand that he had none.
"Then how about her having a really close relationship with Bob whom she already have found an alternative for in the face of Richard"
'Who is Richard?'
They all knew who Bob was but Richard was not a name they knew about. Merry looked pale at the mention of the second name, her face was now full of fear and strong resentment towards him once more.
"But what made me change my mind weren't the other two reasons, it's the abortions she did that made me reconsider my feelings about her to those of...hate!"
He said and without waiting for their response and a tear in his left eye he left the room, stumbling a little from the still powerful headaches and leaving the office.
================================================================================
Merry's POV
The family was in an uproar questioning her about all of the three stuff. Her brother was more interested in the embezzlement, her father in who was Richard and her mothers in the dead unborn babies. By all means she was at a difficult position, she was left but three solutions, either try to changing Chris's mind, get married to some old millionaire or get disowned and run to Bob or Richard.
Richard was the son of the dead minister, he was a rich playboy who had some connections to the underworld like his father but was more interested in buying illegal stuff than making profit. Sometimes he went out with his friends to beat up other thugs, by all means he was a small fish at most while his father was a shark, the one controlling three big criminal organizations in the country. With his father's confession and death Richard was left with almost nothing but a small bar under his name so going to Richard, although he also liked her was a last desperate measure.
The most logical decision for her was the first since she highly doubted a lowlife like Chris could find another woman who would like him in such a short time and she knew how much he enjoyed her company.
"Don't think you have come clean of this matter"
Said her father with a serious and threatening tone at the same time.
"You have time until he begins selling gold in Allastar, when he does it there will be tons of women after his money, till then you must change his mind"
"Don't be so hard on her dear, she's just a child, I'm sure that Bob or er...Richard will make a better couple than that pervert"
Said the mother still belittling the man she saw wearing the cheap casual wear.
"Mother please don't Interfere, you probably don't know but if he opens the market now he will gain more money than our whole company's worth in just a week, although we do sell cash in Destros and Altgaia, recently there has been an Influx of rich players who would love to buy gold and his in-game company the Lady of Fortune has been actively advertising that they will begin exchanging gold at large quantities some time in the future"
"Can't we just take his gold away?"
Asked Merry who only now understood the real gravity of the situation.
"Do you think we would be in this situation if we could, truth was one of the reasons of the ork raid was to take away his gold that he stores in his tower for some reason instead of holding it in his inventory, probably for the clones to be able to use it too"
Said her Brother who was a little anxious about the matter.
"Is it all about money, where did love go, when we were young we hadn't a fortune but we were happy, we had dreams and our love to go forward with"
Their mother said hugging their father's head in her bosom.
"Maybe you are right, maybe I'm just over thinking it but that man is dangerous, he will no doubt seek revenge and I don't want us to suffer because of someone's stupid mistakes"
Said the father glaring at Merry who was of the same opinion in that one.
If before he loved her and made her fear him, then how would she feel if he was mad at her.
"At the moment he's in the infirmary, because of the psychic powers you gave him with your stupid attempts to kill him"
Said the father who was more knowledgeable than the rest about what was going on in the real world.
The other three mostly lived inside the game capsule and his son, her brother Joshua sometimes went on important meetings and other matters as CEO of the company. Of course his father still was at the helm as the owner of the whole company.
When they had made the game there were three people involved, two genius programmers and one who supported the other two's dreams and helped with ideas and innovations. One of the two programmers died before the game was released and the other was now the Chief of development, Sellers himself was the one who took care of all the economical burdens and had the most gains of course.
The Sellers family owned 60% of the controlling shares of the company, Fred the chief of stuff another 20% and 20% were given to charity organizations and bought by different individuals. This story has little to do with the story at the moment but in time will shake the whole gaming company.
Merry didn't find Chris at the Infirmary or his room in the building, which was now empty. She tried calling him but he wouldn't pick the phone, her only choice was to find him inside the game, through Nancy and Bob.
Chris didn't enter the game for a month, she even asked detectives to find him but they didn't have find a trace of him, today Nancy happily announced that he had entered Allastar for the first time.
"Send him a message say that I really want to talk to him"
"he says that he has nothing to talk with you"
"But I really have to meet with him"
"He says that if you want to really want to meet him then you should tell it to him yourself"
"But he doesn't pick up his phone and I don't have him in my friends list"
"That's mean!"
said Nancy after she told Darknym Merry's problem.
"What did he say?"
Asked Merry seemingly interested in what he said to her.
"He wants you to go to his city in Allastar yourself and shout sorry from outside the gate until he hears you from his tower, probably never since the tower goes high into the sky"
"Can you get me into the Tower?"
"I don't know recently even I can only get to my own room, he has locked the tower and only allows me to enter and leave my own room, have only seen his clones these few days that passed, since you are in the mage guild you could find one of his clones there who calls himself Lightnym"
"I'll do just that"
Merry said now having a more concrete plan in her mind.
Merry entered Allastar and was now in the same town that Bob was, which to her disappointment lacked a mage guild with a teleportation tower.
"Bob I need help to reach Anchora will you help me please?"
"I would love to but I have work at the moment, you should wait for Nancy she has become a real help in traveling long distances, some call her the taxi fairy because of her magical teleports which she charged like gold"
Merry laughed as she saw the small fairy with a racing helmet and a strange rally outfit carrying a checkered flag.
"How mean, high elves have no manners at all right Bob"
She said while waving her flag in front of bob's face, who was as if mesmerized by her appearance.
"So can you take me to the mage council oh great taxi fairy"
"One gold"
"Isn't that a little to much to ask from a friend?"
Said Merry awkwardly and a little embarrassed because she had been restricted on her financial gains to pay for the damage she did to the company's finances.
"Just kidding, I was only teasing you"
With a flash Merry and Nancy appeared in front of the magical academy. In reality it was one of the floors of the magic councils where players could learn magic and live a special school-like experience which most players skipped.
"Lightnym should be in the library like he always is"
said Nancy showing her the way around the place.
Truth was Lightnym had helped Nancy a lot, from teaching her skills to giving her spells and tips how to become stronger. It was his Idea that she helps others travel and takes a small fee.
She had given up on taking a share from the money Chris was about to make and just start her own enterprise. Called the "Taxi Fairy", she had employed Npcs in major cities with the gold provided by Darknym each week to call her when there was someone who need to fast travel somewhere. Her gains in gold were small at first but little by little as she became popular people begun calling her more and more often.
"I'm sorry Merry but I'm being called, you know how hard it is to make a few extra gold"
The gold she gained she turned into Money with which she covered her daily expenses. Creating a circle of income since the gold eventually returned to her hands because many players wanted to travel to other countries but couldn't before and when you travel sometimes you want to return.
Merry now roamed the huge Library, she asked the librarian about someone called Lightnym but he was unhelpful and useless as well, he only knew how to find books not people he boasted with an Idiotic smile.
She saw a man in white passing by, he was no doubt Chris with a few minor improvements to his looks and body figure.
"Chris at last we can talk"
She shouted at him and rushed to him with excitement.
"You've got the name wrong, I'm Lightnym one of Chris's three clones and you are?"
He asked puzzled.
"I'm Merry and I really have to talk to him about matters of the outside world"
"So you are that rumored Merry who tried to kill him so many times in the real world, If I were you I would forget about him and move on, he really is mad just by mentioning your name he beat up Darknym the other day and he is the strongest of us three clones"
"But I really have to see him, you must help me, if he sees me he will change his mind and we will once more be together"
She said with a serious but insensitive tone.
Lightnym sighed and said.
"for your own good, you must wait for him to calm down, the tower has been a living hell since he arrived today, he first created another clone and then became a game master rivaling the gods themselves in power, he said something about gaining psychic powers because of you trying to kill him, Do you even know how much trouble it was for us to take a word out of his mouth"
"But my own life depends on it"
She said with desperation all over her face.
"Well there is a way but you will have to work your ass down to make it happen"
"I'll do anything"
She said with a new light on her face.
"Chris is waiting for two Individuals to enter the tower in around two or three months from now, one being a npc called Edeline who travels the world seeking to become stronger and the other one being a player named Fayte who is also training to become stronger, both will come challenge him in at least four months time, If you join their group you can enter the tower and will most likely meet him, I hope he will have calmed down by that time"
"Which one is the closest to entering the tower?"
she asked disregarding their purpose.
"Edeline and Su are about to return since they have conquered their rings but I don't think they will welcome you very well if you tell them why you want to see him or who you are"
"I'll take the risk"
She said in a rush since he could start selling gold any time now.
"Take this ring it will help me locate you and teleport you to the next group, if this approach fails"
He gave her his Atlas ring which he had modified a little.
====================================
Atlas' Punishment

two carvings one of atlas

=======================================
"You can use it to train your endurance if you like but know that the girls you will be traveling with have mastered the last of the ten gravities"
"Do you by any way know when the Lady of fortune opens?"
"Well normally I wouldn't say but since you probably don't care about buying gold, it will open once the city leaves this dimension"
Lightnym was about to cast the teleportation spell on her when she screamed.
"Last question please, what is a game master?"
It was a term she had heard for the first time from his mouth, she would have understood if he had said administrator or manager but a game master was something new to her.
"You should ask someone from the game company, I too am at a loss to explain, he's more like a hacker now than a normal player, the tower now is his own domain like a portal to a new world that's the main reason that the last few days I've been searching through the library to take back some control if any, but I gave up today when he returned, He's just too powerful"
"Wait I will call someone who might know"
She called the Chief of development who with a sad voice answered her call.
"How have you been Merry any news about Chris"
"I've found him but I can't reach him, his clone says he's become a game master now"
She heard a sound as if a chair fell.
"Impossible, only Morris knew the way to override the gods of Allastar"
"Isn't he just plainly hacking now"
"Yes and No, first of all half of the system was made by me and half by the now deceased Morris, his clone you can find if you ask for the Archmage but he is as stubborn as he was when he was alive, I have asked him numerous times about how to become a game master but he never talks, now Chris has taken over the entire world if not all four worlds, we probably can't even touch him"
"What do you mean by four?"
"You see FSK has four worlds, Allastar, Altgaia, Destros and finally one most disregard the one in the starting menu where you select worlds we call the Nexus"
"And how does Controlling Nexus a problem?"
"You do know that to log out or ban someone you must control the nexus, at the moment there is no problem with our control but if he wanted to he could throw you out of Allastar or keep you in against your will, you must wait for me before doing anything rush and foolish"
"I will await your arrival then"
She said and in a moment a hooded mage appeared.
"I welcome the great Warlock"
Said Lightnym bowing lightly.
"I see Lightnym you're as polite as always, Merry follow us to the Archmage's office, we must talk to him about the matter"
The Warlock said and begun walking towards a portal, Lightnym just followed them behind.
The appeared in a messy room with books, scrolls and other magical artifacts.
"Morris are you here?"
Shouted the Warlock/chief
"Is it you Fred"
Came a voice behind a pile of dusty books
"Look out!"
Shouted Lightnym heading in front of Merry as books crushed on him.
"Now look what you've done"
Shouted the warlock at the Archmage who came from the clearing left by the books.
"What does it matters he's just a normal npc anyway, not that he's dead or anything"
The old man said waving his hand and Lightnym appeared next to him.
"I sencirly greet the great Archmage"
Said Lightnym who had just appeared.
"See he's fine, now what do you want this time?"
"There is a problem, by the way this is Merry, Benjamin's daughter"
"Oh and he didn't even Invite me to his wedding, can you believe I meet his daughter before his wife"
He said to Lightnym who nodded in agreement.
"Well, what problem did his daughter cause for you to come to me for help"
Frowned the old archmage, he knew him too well.
"She created an enemy of a game master"
The warlock said
"Are you pulling my leg?"
Said the archmage not believing one word he said.
"I'm afraid he's telling the truth"
Said Lightnym who since then stood silent.
"And who is this npc supposed to be?"
"He's the clone of the game master"
Answered the warlock.
"You are saying that someone succeeded where I had failed and became a game master?"
"What do you mean failed?"
Asked the warlock rather surprised.
"The truth is that to become a game master without dying you must have a brain that can survive great mental stress without dying from it, it was also the reason I died"
"Are you saying that the reason you didn't tell me the formula was because of that!"
Shouted the chief filled with rage.
"That and because there is no way for a game master to control a whole world, at most he will be able to control a room or a small structure, like me who am a game master of the Mage council"
"You are telling me that if someone enters his tower he will be at his mercy then"
"probably yes, unless he became a real game master who can control whole worlds"
"Then we must get our minds down and make something out before he decides to control the world, truth is this lady by sheer stupidity gave the man a 10000sp punishment for some minutes and the man became a psychic"
"Where did she find a monster who could survive 10000stress points for even a few seconds"
said the Archmage while whistling
"Even worse he was to be her husband"
Explained the warlock.
They had completely disregarded her and didn't seem to care about her anymore, they were only talking of her with insulting words about her foolishness, childishness and stupidity. She was about to cry when Lightnym offered her a handkerchief.
She just cried at his shoulder while the old men disregarded her outbreak.
"Did you change your opinion now that you learned what a game master is?"
Asked Lightnym when she calmed down.
"I have to"
"I will send you to Fayte, tell him of your problems and he will help you, but hold your own misdeeds to yourself, Fayte at the moment is at the Hero academy"
"Wait that's father's Academy"
"Whom did he mess with, girl who are you in reality?"
Asked Lightnym somewhat irritated because Darknym/Chris didn't tell him anything about her and Dragonym didn't care at all, he had no obligation to tell him anything.
The two mages opened their eyes wide hearing the clone's question.
"Do you by any way know who Sellers is?"
The warlock asked
"The owner of the game company"
Lightnym answered to their surprise, it was rare to find a clone and this was the first time they had seen one. They didn't care much since normally clones were only used for a fight or two since 10% Mp was better than a clone with 10% of the original's stats.
"Is she his daughter?"
The clone asked, there was a light in his eyes now as if he had a new understanding.
"I see the clone is clever, I highly doubt we will be able to overcome even one of these clones if he were to make game master clones"
"Don't worry about it, the real one has no Interest in the virtual world, he only wants to get rich and come play in his tower some times, I don't know however what he'll be doing in the other worlds"
The clone said to comfort them.
"Then send her away and stay here to help us with some counter measure"
"Why don't we solve the problem with the game master formula, that way you don't even need a counter measure"
The clone suggested.
The old men begun analyzing the theorem and the room bustled with nerdiness. Sometimes Lightnym told them some things that they missed and ways to bypass some problems, It was as if he was not inferior in knowledge than them.
Merry was shocked at their excitement, at some point she fell asleep just listening them talking.
"We did it!"
Shouted the warlock.
"Yes we finally did it but the clone was a really great help"
Said the Archmage.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you Morris and Fred but I have taken control over my clone some time ago, but you really opened my eyes, I will use your formula well but don't despair as I said unless you bother me I will allow the administration to work normally and the management to be yours only problem is the girl sleeping over there, I have absolutely no desire to talk to her, tell her that if she ever enters my tower she will feel the true meaning of helplessness"
Chris said and the clone took it's own consciousness once more.
"Greetings great Archmage and Warlock, I'm sorry for being asleep while you worked so hard to create some counter measure"
Said the clone.
The two men frowned and said
"Just leave"
"As you command"
Lightnym said while pushing Merry lightly to wake her up.
"I'm leaving now if you still want to enter the tower I was now given permission to do it, but I highly doubt you will like what will happen"
Merry's face looked happy
"Sure take me right now"
"Don't!"
Shouted the two men looking at her with worry
"Don't stop me I must talk to him even if it's the last thing I do"
She said with conviction
"I ask the Archmage's permission to teleport away from the mage council"
Said the Clone with no sentiments showing worry, pity or regret for what he was about to do.
"I can't give you permission"
said the Archmage with stubbornness
"It is her choice to make"
Noted Lightnym seeming bigger than before.
"But he said that bad stuff would happen to her"
Complained the Archmage.
"I know, because I heard everything, I also know that it is probably only a test to see if she will come that's what I would do anyway, bravery and good deeds are to be awarded, misdeeds punished, attacks returned, that's what I believe in"
Lightnym said, leaving the two old men fall in deep thought.
"I will allow it but under the condition that you will promise to return her safe"
"I can only promise to die trying, is that enough for you?"
The two men still a bit anxious not knowing if they were talking to the clone or the real one just nodded in agreement.
In a flash of light Merry appeared in a dark room with a throne made of a black metal. On it sat Chris naked, revealing some seriously trained muscles and from the throne came five chains, that ended upon the collars of six half naked female npcs. They were Theo, Velarial, Yu, Takako, Gloom and Aurora. all wearing a leather underwear moaning somewhat sexily while with their hand caressing and trying to rip the leather underwear.
"So you came anyways"
Said Chris a little irritated seeing her.
"You can leave now Lightnym"
He said with a serious tone.
"I gave my word that I would return her safely back to her people"
Lightnym said with conviction.
"You're really bold today but since you are so kin on me giving her a second chance maybe I will"
Merry would have kissed the Npc for giving her so much help without asking anything in return but thought against it since he was a simple program after all.
"First of all Merry I must know why you want to see me, although I already have a slight idea as of why"
Chris said while scratching his balls.
"I've come here because I came to miss you when you left, life without you has lost all its meaning, I have even been searching for you in real life to sincerely apologize but haven't been successful for a month"
"Well It must have been a month since I have left but the problem is I don't believe you, truth is I don't want to care about you anymore, just seeing you makes me want to rape you"
"Wouldn't that be better done in real life after we get married?"
"Truthfully speaking I also would love to feel that sweet touch of your real body but its impossible at the moment and probably for about a year to come, so what will you do now?"
"But you open the exchanges in three months"
She complained.
"As I suspected it was all about the money after all, then here is a deal for you if you do better oral sex than Velarial here I will think about marrying you just for that ability of your"
Merry and Lightnym were both left dumbfound,
'What exactly did she do to him?'
asked Lightnym to himself.
"I'll do it said Merry"
To both their surprise.
"Since you are so desperate, then come to this address alone and enter the capsule there, if you do that then we can once again be together"
Said Chris with a smile.
"Don't do it"
Shouted Lightnym as if smelling a trap.
"You can't command her, she has a will of her own, I do promise that if you come to the address alone and in secret I will marry you in a month from now before even I start opening the exchange banks"
"I don't know anymore"
Merry fell to the floor and begun crying, she knew that the capsule was probably a trap or something but she was given little choice by her parents.
"What is there to think about you want to marry me for the money and I will marry you only for your body, it's a fair exchange"
"Then It's a deal but I won't go to the capsule until our marriage"
"Then I will visit you in a week at your office, is that fine?"
"Sure, now you can teleport me back"
She said to Lightnym who looked at her sadly.
"What exactly does this mean!"
She shouted at the Npc clone.
"I can't teleport you out of here and you can no longer log out unless he lets you leave from the tower"
"I did say that I would meet you in a week but I said nothing of letting you leave the tower without a little punishment, you haven't even properly apologized yet"
"I'm sorry?"
She said awkwardly as he levitated her towards himself, letting her fall in front of the stairs bellow his throne.
"Climb on all four up here and give me a blowjob, If it's as great as the one you gave me that night I'll give you a lessened penalty"
Chris loved the way she crawled on all four up the stairs and her touch as she reached him was really masterful, it was as if the naughty Velarial was an amateur in front of her, the way she used her mouth like that was as if she sucked it all inside, leaving nothing escape, just the right size.
"You can stop, I lose, you are better than all the six girls here, you can select one reward as you leave the tower"
"Marry me"
She said with full seriousness and still white liquid all over her face and breasts that had given him a massage a moment ago.
"alright but I can only come after a week to sign the papers"
"Don't worry I will have everything ready"
She said with a happy smile as the liquid disappeared by itself.
Lightnym teleported her back to the Mage council where the two old men heard of their happy reunion. They were getting married at last, her father was happy about the news while her brother and mother were now totally against it, for different reasons.
Today was the meeting at the office, Merry had all the marriage contracts ready and had even readied the marriage to be tomorrow at the town hall.
She awaited at her office for Chris to arrive, but what she saw shook her to the core. He did come but he was sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a strange helmet that was designed for psychic abilities treatment.
"I'm so happy that you came she said with a broad smile"
Rushing to him and giving him a passionate kiss
"Well if you will always welcome me like that it was worth the risk of coming here in person"
"By the way what's with the helmet and the wheelchair"
"I was suggested by a doctor to not move to much while the helmet is on, it's just storing Info I don't need so that I don't die from the mass of Information"
"Is your health in danger?"
She said worried about her future marriage plans.
"Unless you try to kill me again, not really"
She laughed at his notion but then in terror saw a laser scope pointing at his face from the window, rapidly blocking it with her back she slowly took him closer to the office where the chair would hide him from sight.
"Alright I will sign this marriage contract tomorrow but know that if I find that you have send another assassin you will feel really sorry about it"
He touched he hand and saw the laser scope dancing on his hand.
"Are you for real, who is it this time who wants my death"
With a movement of his hand she saw a figure flying towards the glass of her office.
"Could you open the window please"
He asked her politely.
The sniper was a large frame woman, he touched her once and saw a young man he had seen before in Merry's memories.
'Why would Richard want to kill me?'
He went through cross examining the memories of the assassin and Merry's own. In the end he found three points that coincided. She had also hired the same assassin before but due to Merry's father the order for his death was canceled, next he saw Merry nagging Richard about him wanting to marry her by force and now Richard had sex with the assassin and as he asked her for a favor.
Chris used his Domination on the assassin, she screamed in pain and shivered as if possessed, Merry had closed her eyes and ears in terror as blood came from the assassin's right eye in the form of a tear. At the end the Assassin stood up and went behind him.
"She's now my slave, know that if you betray me you will become just like her, a mindless slave, she probably only remembers a few things about her life and even forgot how to speak"
Merry was terrified, she had heard of psychic abilities but none that could make people into slaves.
"See you at the wedding in a month, lets go Rain, we have to go home"
Said Chris and the assassin rolled his wheelchair outside for him, as if she was his nurse, completely disregarding her bloody tear.
=====================================================================================
Today was the marriage, Merry was wearing a luxurious white wedding dress provided by her mother since she was still financially tight. Chris came in a cheap white tuxedo, still on his wheelchair and wearing his helmet, and Rain the assassin was wearing a nurse outfit.
The witnesses were only her family and her their best men, Nancy and Bob. The wedding contract was almost sealed when an unexpected even occurred, inside the town hall came six men wearing ski masks and carrying guns.
"Stop the wedding now, if I don't marry her no one will"
One of them shouted, seemingly the leader
They heard Merry shout "Richard!" and rushing to his arms.
Chris face palmed himself.
'How come I have ever trusted her'
"I'm sorry but everyone present here must die, it's for our future together"
Richard said still wearing a sky mask on his head.
"Can I ask how you will explain her surviving this Incident to the court?"
Asked Chris in a serious voice.
The other five men looked at him puzzled as well, truth was they were all young and rush they didn't even think of the outcome of their actions.
"Don't listen to him, he's only trying to buy time for himself"
The six terrorists shot their guns killing Seller's bodyguards and even wounding him in the process.
Bob and Nancy who were their best men and were next to Chris, Rain who was behind his wheelchair and the Mayor were totally unharmed due to Chris creating a kinetic shield around them.
In a minute the Six men were out of ammo and the Sellers family was dead, and they even saw Chris' group dying, only Merry remained or so she thought, in reality Chris had cast an Illusion that he and his group died. As for the Sellers family, he couldn't care less about them.
"Now what will we do?"
Asked Merry in despair knowing full well that there will be many who will question the events that occurred at her marriage.
"Isn't it already decided, you will inherit their fortunes and we will live in luxury"
"You Idiot, do you think I will even inherit a penny, I will probably just go to jail as your accomplice"
She said while falling on the floor crying.
"Or we can still marry and the six of them can work for us as slaves"
They heard a voice from where Chris' corpse was.
"Is he a ghost?"
asked one of the six panicked due to the lack of bullets in his gun.
"Don't panic, I think it's one of his rumored psychic abilities"
Said Richard who knew a few things about psychics from his father, although it was his first time encountering the rare psychic powers in real life.
"Yes don't be afraid, just hid under a rock and await for the police to catch you, ah...and give me my bride back please"
"But...but, she's my ticket to the riches of the Sellers family I will never give her away to a lowlife like you!"
Richard shouted holding Merry's hand violently.Chris appeared in front of him walking normally out of his wheelchair and without his helmet.
"You should really learn to listen"
Chris said as he stoke his face with his knee and continued with a combo felling him to the floor.
The other five were too shocked to move seeing their leader being kicked around by what they perceived as a ghost.
"Wait please don't hit his face"
Shouted Merry as she saw the beating.
All Chris' blows were all sent towards the masked man's face. The police charged and with difficulty restrained Chris who was beating the crap out of the unlucky Richard fearing that he would kill him.
All charges for the act fell on Richard and his gang since all the survivors vouched for Merry's Innocence even the mayor wasn't sure if she had a part in it, but since Chris was the first to do so the others just followed.
