MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 322: Done Recording



"Argh!" Within the auditorium, a loud, painful scream bounced off the walls.

King Moriarty fell down on his knees and started trembling uncontrollably.

The skin started to turn bruised-purple, and his eyes rolled back into his skull. When they came back from his skull, his eyes looked like pure black voids, devoid of any color or emotion.

All of the resemblance of humanity was slowly disappearing.

The clothes ripped apart, and his legs, which used to be muscular and firm, turned something entirely different.

Something monstrous.

He wasn't standing on two feet anymore. Instead, his legs had turned into the centipede's legs. The protective shell was bruised-purple and oozing a strange green liquid.

While from torso and above, he still resembled somewhat of his former self, his bottom was disgustingly monstrous.

"Argh!" King Moriarty howled in pain.

He turned taller because his centipede legs became longer. He was now about five meters tall, if the centipede legs were fully extended.

His gold-blond hair flowed over his shoulders. That was the only thing that was still beautiful about him. The rest of him was now completely transformed into something monstrous.

"What is this?!" King Moriarty screamed as he looked at his centipede legs. "I am... a monster!"

"That's the price of strength. This is what you wanted, was it not?" Rawkshawn laughed. "Humans are weak. To overcome that weakness, you became an evolved lifeform."

"How can I be a King, looking like this?" King Moriarty gritted his teeth. "My wives will turn their backs on me. My men will ridicule me. My enemies will fear me."

"That's good, no?" Rawkshawn asked with a smirk. "There is not a single one who can challenge you anymore."

"If this is the price of strength, so be it." King Moriarty looked angry. "So, what am I? Chaosbeing?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"A physique of Chaosbeing, mind of the human." Rawkshawn said. "If you wish so, you can always keep the front that you're still the same, handsome king."

"..." King Moriarty narrowed his eyes and moved his arm right.

There, a human formed out of nothingness. The human looked just like former King Moriarty, handsome with gold-blond hair. It was a clone!

Near the ceiling, Adam's eyes widened in shock.

'King Moriarty has a power of cloning? Wait...'

At that moment, he remembered Ryan from Eldertree Institute. A clone.

'While they looked vastly different, I always expected Ryan to be a clone of someone

powerful. There is no one more powerful than Moriarty.

'He has also been hiding that cloning power. It must be because his clones are everywhere. That's how he has always been one step ahead of everyone else.'

Adam looked at the Recording Pearl. That was also recorded.

"Now, you must continue what we've agreed on." Rawkshawn said. "My siblings are still locked. Bring strong humans here. Their strength will help to break other seals."

"I understand." King Moriarty took out a timepiece and checked the time. "Was the previous ones a nice treat?"

"Mm, they were." Rawkshawn grinned. "One especially. Adam, I think was his name." King Moriarty's eyebrow twitched. "Oh? Is that so? Well, good that he is now dead, right?" "..." Rawkshawn smiled. "Well, y'see, he was such a good treat, I spared his life." "What?!" King Moriarty looked enraged. "You told me you killed everyone!"

"Hahaha!" Rawkshawn erupted in laughter. "Calm down. I never said I let him leave that place. He must go through my brethren first. They'll tear him apart before he even has a chance to see the light of day."

"Better so." King Moriarty pocketed the timepiece. "They were sent there to give you enough strength to finally leave that place. In the end, it was up to you whether you didn't want that strength!"

"After killing the others, I already had enough strength to break through the shackles of the world of the mist." Rawkshawn said. "Thus, Adam would've just been some extra."

"I told someone else to do the job if you didn't." King Moriarty said. "Nerezza. What happened with that?"

"Oh, it was you." Rawkshawn smirked. "Yes, she tried and failed. From the start, you thought I wouldn't do it?"

"I have always plan A, B, and C." King Moriarty narrowed his eyes. "Every plan failed. Thanks to you, I assume."

Rawkshawn shrugged his shoulders. "Whatever. It's not like that human will ever be able to leave that place."

"You better be right," King Moriarty said coldly. "I'll now have to deal with the pain of the Council of Mercenaries shouting in my ear that I sent their best mercenaries to their doom."

"Oh, you're in trouble~" Rawkshawn laughed.

"Hardly," King Moriarty said.

"They voluntarily signed up for this mission. After all, it is still mercenaries duty to keep the New World safe from any threats. The deal had been made long time ago that while in war, they must still put the safety of the New World above their own.

"I received a word from the worried tutorial caretaker that there was something odd happening in the tutorial. The sickness. Thus, I had every right to make the Council of

Mercenaries send a party to investigate.

"It happened to be a greater threat than anyone could've expected. Not my fault. They died doing what they were supposed to-protect the best interest of the New World."

"I see." Rawkshawn grinned. "You've thought far."

"Hmph, some of the Ancient Guilds were also being cheap." King Moriarty said. "I told them to send their best mercenary to do the mission, but some of the Ancient Guilds were being

cheap and sent their third or fourth best.

"It is their fault for not taking the mission seriously!"

"What about this Adam?" Rawkshawn asked. "Was he the strongest?"

"No. He wasn't even part of Ancient Guild, only part of the faction." King Moriarty said. "I gave a special request to send him to the mission. Zephyr, of course, wanted to refuse but he

couldn't.

"Even though it was pretty obvious that I wanted him to die here, what can Zephyr do about it? Fight me? Other Ancient Guilds must be thrilled that Adam is dead, so no one would care

except him.

"Zestruction, the weakest faction, is of no threat, but Adam could've been a pretty dangerous one in the future. I've now killed that threat."

"Mm~" Rawkshawn smiled.

At the ceiling, Adam stopped recording with a cold look.

'I have everything I needed.'
