Nessa was healing her teammate like crazy. She wanted to finish this fast as possible.
"Nessa don't waste your mana! Don't heal me anymore, I have an equipment skill ready to activate!" A huge Shield Bearer shouted.
Higher tier equipments also possessed skills that the wearer can wield.
Nessa didn't reply but she stopped healing him.
"Oh no! It's about to use Earthquake Stomp. Leave this area! Shaine use your Interruption ability!" An Elementalist shouted. He seemed to be the leader of the party.
Shaine, an Oracle heed to command and used the skill.
Interruption!
She chanted strange words and her finger started emitting white light. She pointed it at the golem and the white light penetrated its forehead, its raised feet suddenly stop and returned to the ground.
"Way to go! Resume attacking." The Elementalist calmly commanded.
Rangers, Swordsmen, Sorcerers, and other summoned monsters continuously attack the golem. If the golem tried to attack, the damage dealers will retreat and the defenders will take the blow for them.
There were 13 people in the group including Nessa. Just as the golem was about to be killed, its right fist started growing larger.
"Barry, go use your ultimate skill!" The Elementalist leader shouted.
Barry, a Great Paladin quickly raised his shield and stood in front of his teammates.
Divine Shield!
Suddenly his shield started glowing with golden light. It also started growing. It finally stopped getting bigger when it finally reached a towering height similar to a three-story building.
The golem's fist punched out with unbelievable speed. It generated gushing winds and the ground it's standing on suddenly cracked.
It got in contact with the Divine Shield and a sonic boom could be heard across the plains. Barry's veins popped out. His seven orifices bled and he was sweating buckets.
Finally what seemed forever stopped. The golem's fist slowly laid down and it shrunk.
"This is our chance. It is already weakened. Dish out a lot of damage as you could!" The leader was really happy. They have been raiding this monster for a long time now. And this Elite monster will surely drop a lot of fortune.
The team bombarded the golem with attacks. Explosions and shouting could be heard. After a while they finally brought the golem down,l and a huge amount of experience points were received. Some level up while some didn't. But they didn't care a lot from leveling up. Rather, they are looking at their drops. Wealth was more attractive than leveling up.
Nessa who was sweating so hard finally heave a sigh of relief. She looked at the sky and took a deep breath. It was finally over.
She remembered Kite's message and hurriedly open her system interface. She then replied to Kite's message
•••
Kite was currently sitting in his bed. He was thinking about something when his system interfaces showed up.
| System: Nessa has replied to your message |
Finally! He was waiting for an hour now.
Nessa: Yes. What's the matter? Do you need anything?
Kite: Yeah I need to ask you a question.
Nessa: Sure, what is it?
Kite: Can you tell me the names of the people you've slept with?
Nessa was quite surprised by Kite's question.
'Is something wrong with his head?' This thought generated in her head.
She was deeply disappointed. This question was too straightforward. Who in their right mind will ask such question?
Blatantly saying who all the man she slept with was insanely rude.
Nessa: Don't you think you're crossing the line too much?
Kite perspired. He can faintly sense Nessa's anger from this message alone. So he quickly replied.
Kite: No you got me wrong. I faintly sense something dangerous. It may be related to one of your admirers or one of the men you slept with. Please pardon my intrusion.
When Nessa read his reply, she was somehow relieved. She was offended by his earlier message.
The female elf then realized his worries and replied to his message.
Nessa: Okay I understand. Here is the list of all the men I slept with.
After that Kite received all of Nessa's 'partners'. Seeing the names on it, his mouth uncontrollably twitch.
Isn't this... Too much?
He considers himself an absolutely open-minded person. But of course, as a male, he also has his bias and selfish thoughts.
There were a total of 13 men including Kite.
He then asked about their personalities and behaviors.
Nessa answered all his questions honestly.
Kite might get hurt or worst die if he didn't pay attention to these people.
Kite got suspicious of one of the men on the list. This guy did it with Nessa when she was drunk. He was handsome and arrogant. He was pursuing Nessa currently for three years now. His class was also an assassin. Class famed for silently killing people. He was one of the two assassins Nessa slept with. And since the other assassin died he couldn't help but be warier with him. Now that he has this much clue, he asked Nessa for the last request.
Kite: Do you have any voice record of Hidden Blade?
Nessa: Sorry. I don't have any.
Kite: Could you do me a favor and ask him for a voice message? Of course, I'll pay you for it.
Nessa: Do you suspect him? Okay, I'll try contacting him.
She thought Kite was just being paranoid. But upon thinking about it, it made sense. Kite is still low leveled and Hidden Blade was faintly attached to her. Who knew what will happen when Hidden Blade goes nuts? She contacted the person in suspicion in a voice message hoping for a voice reply too.
•••
Hidden Blade was in the forest waiting for his prey to come. He was notified that Kite took a quest about forest wolves. And although there were a lot of forest wolves in the kingdom, the Millow Forest has a lot more. So the chances of Kite going here today is high.
Suddenly he was notified by his system.
| System: Nessa sent you a voice message |
He was stunned for a while. Suddenly ecstasy flooded his entire being. Is Nessa interested in him now? To send him a voice message was a first.
He played the message and was captivated by her voice.
"Blade, what level are you now."
Nessa asked the most common question adventures commonly ask. Hidden Blade was infatuated so much that he also sent a voice message as a reply.
"I'm already Level 23! Wanna hang out tonight?"
He then waited for Nessa for a while. He waited for an hour and still didn't received any reply. He thought maybe Nessa was busy with something. Assassins were the most patient and diligent class. They could wait for a decade just to assassinate a single person. So even though Hidden Blade was here since the morning he still patiently waited here. That's how he successfully killed Kite in the past timeline.
•••
Nessa forwarded the voice message to Kite. When Kite heard his voice his face distorted. His aura started to change. And for the first time ever, he released killing intent.
"Hidden Blade, I won't stop till I see you die in front of me," He coldly spoked.
Revenge will come!
