Desire

00125 Rubella

Ajin stopped by the clothing store and picked out a hero's case and an ordinary uniform. Long hair was only tied up backwards, and the hero's case and suit were placed in the inventory first. Just by changing his hair, he changed his appearance considerably.

And it was a big three-story building. Azin checked the map to see if he had come to the wrong place, but this was definitely where the system NPC was located. Azin opens the door to the guest and goes inside. Per month. Seeing the big sign, Ajin opened the door.

The New Moon Party was a fortune teller's house, with a small room adjoining it and smelling a fierce aroma.

“I'm sorry, but the rabbis are all entertaining... Could you wait a moment?" ”

The woman who was trimming her nails bowed her head to Ajin. He nodded. After checking the map, he realized. that this building itself is a system house for players. It seemed to cover a lot of users. In fact, there were only a few system houses in the village.

“How long do I have to wait? ”

“It should only take about ten minutes. ”

The woman bowed her head and said. I thought about going to another system house, but I quit. I thought it would be similar to the time to get there or the time to be here. Azin touches his tied head with his hands and waits for his turn. A rookie suit descends from the stairs to the second floor, maybe a little over ten minutes away.

“You can go upstairs. ”

The woman says that Azin climbs the stairs, scooping at the player. The second floor smells slightly lighter than the first floor, but the smell of floating air is still disturbing.

“This way, please. ”

The man in uniform, like the woman on the first floor, bowed his head and said. Azin followed him across the hall. After several doors, the man stops walking and opens the closed door.

The room was so clean that it seemed small. A man too young to be a Dosara sat on the red seat, and Azin took off his shoes and went inside. Azin sits on the bench with the cushion tucked away, and the man touches his chin and looks at him.

“Give me your hand. ”

The great man said. This man is a system NPC, not a regular NPC. The consideration of a system designed for beginners who are not yet familiar with it. So you don't have to watch your opponent like you would any other NPC. Ajin reaches out his hand with a expressionless face. The man who touched Azin's hand closed his eyes and groaned low.

“This is...”

System NPCs are called, but they are not completely emotional. It's just that accidents are limited in the AI line. The man sighs, his eyes narrowly trembling.

“.. I can't help you with what I know. Could you please wait a moment? ”

Is it because of the high level? Azin nods. It is a system house for beginners who have no connection with NPCs and have no information, so they cannot help with level 33. The man rises to his feet, leaving Ajin alone in his room and walking out the door.

“I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”

Then the door opens. The one who came in through the door was the woman in the red dress with her hair turned high. Her face was painted with white fur, and her dark lips were red as if she had eaten a rat. She smiles as she sits across from him.

“The New Moon Party's Dangju is called the Flood Surin. ”

“It's azin.”

He gives out his hand, speaking loudly. The flood lowers its head slightly and grabs Azin's hand. The flood was low, touching Azin's hand.

“Ah, this is the deepest I've ever seen. Mmm."

The flood moans low. Azin looks at the flood that rubs his hands and opens his mouth.

“Where is this place? ”

“Oh, this is Rubella, a city near a volcano. ”

The answer comes right away. The NPC, including flood and flu, is literally NPC, even though it mimics the usual NPC. NPCs that exist in First's world are human beings from other worlds that are manipulated by memory, but they are merely objects consisting of systems from head to toe. They are made of helpers, so do not refuse the question.

“What city is rubella? ”

“A full-scale checkpoint belonging to the Pyongyang Faction Neglect, the fastest student of the volcano, controls the rubella. If you want to connect with the Sword of Volcano, visit the front gate. ”

The flood responded with a smile. If you visit the front gate and get recognition and become a disciple, you will form a kite with a volcano. With luck and skill, you could become a pupil of the volcano. But Azin had no intention of learning the sword of the volcano.

“Is there anything else I can do? ”

“Hmm... If you're good at small talk... The Yuan Mark is recruiting a voice to accompany Ami." How about that? ”

“Is there anything else? ”

“The Wizard Aros is having trouble finding the ingredients for his magic experiment. ”

“What else? ”

“An evil attendant is appearing on the hills near the swamp of dust. If you cut off his head, the entire checkpoint will pay dearly. ”

“What else? ”

“Otherwise...”

The flood blurs the horse's tail. There are three quests that can be performed at the level of right now. Azin touches his chin and thinks for a moment. Pilgrimage to the Army, Wizard's Lab Material, and Criminal Execution. First of all, we don't want to go to the Army. It takes too long. Wizard's Experimental Material. Is this the most OK thing? I suppose you want me to hunt monsters and bring the ingredients. It's no different from what Hanemoth did when he was in Beta.

“Where is the mountain? ”

“A small mountain that you can see just outside the East Gate of Rubella. ”

“What kind of man is a fractal rock? ”

“Spatula is an unmanned safari artisan who has mastered the art of hemodialysis. They're being chased by a volcano by a woman who's been hijacked near a volcano and killed by an unfamiliar cannibal. ”

“I will cut the head of the Fragmented Stone. ”

In saying this, I let go of Azin's hand, who was stirring the flood. She puts her hand inside a wide sleeve and gives the dried scroll to Ajin.

“It's a portrait of a pulverized rock. If a Cowboy slashes the head of a shipwreck, pick up his supply and find the front gate. ”

Azin nods and stands up. I received a quest and don't need to talk anymore. We have all the information we can get from the line now.

“What a strange place. ”

It was the moment I left the room. You hear a grinning laugh, and Azin looks at you in horror. Persian Duna. She stands with her back against the wall, smiling brightly at Azin. It's been a while since I've seen him, but Persian hasn't changed. Not the long red hair, not the pale face. Even the sleepy, slightly saggy eyes and the black dress were the same.

“It's been a long time, Ajin. What a mysterious fate it is to see you again in a world like this. ”

Percik approaches Azin and says, Ajin received from Gladiolus in exchange for not manipulating Persian memories. Thanks to this, Persian has not forgotten Azin, and Azin's shadow still shares his shadow space. Nevertheless, Persian had never been cast into the shadow of Azin.

“It's been a long time, Persian. ”

“I've heard from Racunda... but I'm not in a good mood. Because of this, I have suffered considerable damage. ”

Persian smiles with sharp fangs. As the island of beginnings disappears, everything she has made alive on that island has become a bubble. Once a vampire road in the Thorn Forest, she goes into the Forest of Oblivion, kills the vampire road there and becomes her own road. But with the island gone, all that glory disappeared as well.

“Thanks to you, I became a vampire with no speed whatsoever. ”

Persian giggles. Her powers have not weakened, but it is true that all the vampires who follow her have vanished. Azin looks around. Persian figures are too sharp in the monthly party.

“Let's go down. ”

Azin said, headed for the stairs. In response, Persian smiles and applauds. At that sound, the pain turned around.

“You're worried about who I am? ”

The Persian way of saying that was completely different from what he had just said. The black dress had turned into a black robe that was no different from what Azin had worn, and by itself, the foreign sensation of Persian had vanished. Redhead and red-eye. Customize your avatar to achieve as much as you want. In other words, Persian was no different from the appearance of a novice decapitated player.

“Is this enough? I don't want to tie my hair up. ”

Persian asked, fingers touching long hair. He nodded.

“.. I don't think you need to tie it. ”

“Right?"

Persian smiles at Vashti. So Azin and Persik come down the stairs. Ajin opened the closed door and went out of the annual ball.

“Where have you been? ”

“You and Pl... what was that? ”

“Player.”

“Oh, right. You mean a week without you and the players? I was in Gracia. ”

Persian said casually. Azin didn't understand it a bit. Jinsun, Gracia, Siolence. It's common sense for the player who started the game and the NPC who originally lived on the continent, but how does Persian who was on the island know about it?

“.. did you know about Gracia? ”

“It feels a little strange. ”

In Azin's question, Persik taps his temples with his fingers, smiling bloody.

“I didn't know anything about Graciani. All I know is the island, the vampires I used to work for, and all that stuff. Apparently, not until a week ago. ”

Persian laughter disappears.

“But at some point I knew about him. When I woke up, I was in the black forest of Gracia. Do you know what the Black Forest is? It's the Undead Forest in Gracia. I was just, you know, one vampire. ”

The voice of Persian settles. She realizes that there was some manipulation in her memory and is furious at him. All the vampires he worked for are gone, and he is no longer the Vampire Lord of the Forest of oblivion.

“But nothing changed when I was angry. It was a haunted forest. There were many vampires, there were many Durahans, there were many werewolves. ”

There, Persian settles his emotions. Despite losing what she had, she was still Persian Duna. She was a powerful vampire and a brilliant wizard. Even in the Black Forest, full of undead, she can stand out. Even the strongest vampires could create their own force if they tried, or settle somewhere else out in the woods.

But she didn't.

“.. why? ”

Azin asks. Persian doesn't answer that question for a while. Ajin followed the map to the east gate of Rubella. I want to go to Yeonsan Mountain and meet the paparazzo.

“It's pointless.”

Persian replies later.

“I wish I didn't know, but I've learned too much. I realized that everything that I had created could go away very lightly, and that everything that I believed in could simply be denied. I felt like I didn't have to. ”

Persian mutters in a quiet voice. I listened to all the truth from Acacia and received some manipulations as my memories were preserved. It was the same as the world Persian knew.

“.. and your master asked for it. ”

Persian smiles faintly.

“You're busy, and you have nothing to do, so make sure you don't get hit anywhere. ”

Early part two will feel uncompromising given its background, but will gradually blend in with fantasy as the story progresses.
