Chapter 32 - Kneeling

Droplets!

~Pluck!~

Droplets!

~Pluck!~

Droplets!

~Pluck!~

Tears of sadness were flowing in the eyes of the skinny old man, it was Vista's tears, he could not react on time, to save his granddaughter from being killed. But unlike his granddaughter, Vista did not transform into a monster, or just he can't and the reason is unknown.

Then, on his side, his granddaughter falls to her knees from the shock.

***

~Blank!~

Elsa's vision went blank after seeing her sister being beheaded by her enemy.

Fall!

Catch!

Vista catches his unconscious granddaughter from the shock she just saw.

"Damn it! What we did wrong to deserves this punishment."

"Huh! Immortals?!"

"Why?!"

"Why us? Of all the leaving races around this world."

"Why are we suffering the most?!"

Vista kneeled to the floor and shouted from the bottom of his heart towards the 5 players in his front.

~Halt!~

Kai and his colleagues stopped their attacks after hearing the old man's words.

All of them were confused. They thought they were on the right side of the story. However, after hearing the old man's screams they felt a heart-piercing emotion.

What quest they received was about revenging on someone and killed that person no matter what. Just by reading it will give you strong feedback about the truth of this quest. But after hearing the old man's words they doubted their quest as a lie.

"Hey! Old man, what is wrong that we do?!"

"For saying such a word you make us the villain here."

Kira asked the old man she was confused and could not help, but to ask the story behind the old man's life.

Just seeing that the old man just hugging his granddaughter while kneeling will make you look the evil one.

And that is totally out of their personalities, however, the old man just replied to them that will make them even eviler, to what they have done before.

"Please don't kill my granddaughter, in exchange, I will give you my head."

Swift!

Splash!

Thud!

Vista's head was suddenly cut off, and 5 of them were surprised by the sudden attack of someone else. Then a mocking voice was heard around the area.

"Then that's good to hear trash!"

"HAHAHA!!!"

~Pick!~

The unknown person grabbed the unconscious female into his back and leave a command on the 5 people, who are still in a daze and could not process the sudden change of the situation.

"Finish my task and come back to my hideout, I will reward you accordingly to what you guys have done today."

~Blink!~

The unknown person vanished and then their quest changed into an absolute quest that if they fail it or did not do it properly they will suffer a strong curse making them have no choice but to do it.

It was a very tempting quest at first and without hesitation, all of them accept it without knowing the right and the wrong.

However, after re-reading it the punishment of the quest was like demanding them to do it or else you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Then Kira who doubted their quest was the wrong one changed and was happily looking at the head of the two dead NPC.

"Master Kia let's go! It doesn't matter anymore. Just by looking at the quest reward, we can just ignore the slow leveling speed at the early stage of the game and advance our abilities to the next level."

"Yeah! That's right young master Kai. We hit our luck this time." The male player name Darn also commented and agree with Kira's suggestion.

"Fine, but if we hit the karma of doing this don't blame me." Kai looked at his colleagues who are smiling from the quest they just received.

All of them hand the heads of the two NPC at the central plaza and write the word that is written on their quest window and back to the hideout of that unknown man. And it was the Toad Mountain Range, by the time they finished their task another task pops out stating where they should go next.

"Let's go out job here is done!" Kai commanded his colleagues.

And all of them left the central plaza, and a few minutes later a screaming sound was heard followed by another scream. And Tyro rushes towards that voice and saw the terrible mess at the central plaza.

***

Going back to the present time,

Tyro was facing a giant red-skinned frog and this giant frog is wearing clothes that look like a karate traditional uniform. With a black belt on his lower body, the giant frog looks like a martial artist.

This was the frog at the altar outside the portal, who gives the quest of the 5 man team of Kai.

Crack! Crack!

Cracking the bones of his neck Tyro prepared himself to attack this giant frog. Taking a deep breath Tyro rushed forward.
