The Immortal Player

Chapter 77: A Commotion by the Shore!

The BoF was about to rise that made their travel easier than it was during the night. Monsters have somehow a fear in daylight and choose to lurk in dark places. Hence, they hid in caves, dungeons or abandoned places like villages and kingdoms.

In less than two-thirds of the time Pedro, Faunia, Mathew, and Talia traveled to pick up the others, they were able to reach the cliff that was memorable to Pedro. As if like a norm, Pedro stood in deep thought as he stares in the forest and the distant Naga Kingdom.

"A~Aron, Let's go!" Sabrina waved her hand to Pedro as everyone walked ahead to the path to the forest.

"Uhm!" Pedro glanced and nodded to Sabrina in response. He looked one last time to the view as he grasped his hands tightly.

'I'll build a Kingdom here!' Pedro was full of determination as he ran towards everyone with a smile.

Minutes later, they were just meters away from the shore where Pedro's 'boat' was docked. At the moment Mathew had a glance at the shore near where Pedro's boat was docked, he halted abruptly that confused everyone. (Not including Pedro, Faunia, and Sabrina)

"Stop!" Mathew wore a weary look as he held Talia's shoulder that stopped her from walking.

"Eh?" Talia was confused for a moment but when she saw a figure of a human from a distance she immediately understood what Mathew meant.

"Those flags... That outfit... People from the Naga Kingdom?" Pedro walked towards the group's front as he checks the crowd right beside the dock where his boat was located.

"Not only them..." Mathew pointed to the people with different outfits behind those from the Naga Kingdom.

"Players? Stick together!" Everyone followed Pedro's command and compressed together, Except Faunia and Pedro, as Pedro's knife rotated around the group and formed a circle line in mid-air.

'I can't let anyone knew about our true strength... Including Faunia...' Pedro frowned as he pulled up a black mask that covered half of his face. (It covered his mouth and a part of his nose. Like the ones used for medical purposes.)

'Faunia!' He talked to Faunia telepathically as he glanced to her and hands over a similar black mask.

'What, Human?'

'Wear this... Our Identity must remain hidden!'

'Why?'

'Stop asking, and just put it!'

'Ok! Ok!'

Faunia took the face mask with a frown as a scene where Pedro uses some kind of manipulation ability to control her plays in her mind. The mask covered half of her face that emphasized her unique green eyes and cute look.

"You guys stay here! We'll talk to them!" Pedro stopped the group meters away from where the crowd was located. The distance was far enough to avoid the 'Scan' of players to Pedro's group and it was far enough to 'not' be able to recognize their faces. The radius of the circle made by the pen-knife increased by twenty meters.

...

In the distance, a huge volume of players watches behind the NPC from the Naga Kingdom.

"Look! This NPCs from that Kingdom were standing here since the 'Sun' rise!"

"I wonder who are they waiting for?"

"It must be someone from that ship!"

"Such a huge ship!"

"Developers did a great job in making this game feel like reality!"

"Yeah, so real that I died four times already!"

"D*mb*ss!"

"D*mb*ss!" +1

"D*mb*ss!" +2

"D*mb*ss!" +3

"D*mb*ss!" +4

...

"Hahaha!"

"Laugh all you want! If that Kingdom only allowed me to enter, I would have not died FOUR times!"

"Complete the beginner quests first, said the developers!"

"beginner quests my *ss!"

The players built a noisy crowd. Yet, the NPCs from the Naga Kingdom ignored them as they patiently wait for someone from the ship. Among the NPCs stood a middle-aged muscular man who wore a golden crown and a silver sword hangs by his belt.

"Grandpa! I wonder why Aunt Soledad returned? Maybe she missed me... or... she wanted me to join her crew!" An excited kid dressed well like a noble pulled the hands of his grandfather that he held tightly.

"Hahaha! Maybe she missed you!" The old noble laughed in amusement to the child.

"Hmm... Grandpa still doesn't believe Vonider Naga III is a talent!" The child pouted as he looked to the old noble.

"Behave your self kid!" The middle-aged man with a crown glared to Vonider as if saying 'Don't humiliate me in front of the Great Soledad!'

"Ye~Yes Father!" The kid closed his eyes and screamed on top of his lungs in fear.

"Your Majesty! Someone is approaching!" A knight in full silver armor kneeled and reported as the figure of Pedro, Faunia, and the others came out from the forest.

"They are here! But... Where is the Great Soledad?" The middle-aged man frowned as Pedro and Faunia inched closer to them.

...

A moment ago, when Pedro saw the middle-aged man's figure and the crown in his head caught his attention.

'It seems like he is the king of 'that' Kingdom!' Pedro glanced to Faunia with a serious look.

'King? More like spoiled humans with big ambitions and greed for power!' Faunia mocked in response to Pedro.

'Hahaha! It may seem like it, but don't take all of them to be like that!'

'Heh! Why not? All creatures experience greed, even gods and goddess. Hence... Humans are no exception!'

'All right! All right! I get it! Anyway, don't attack unless we are in danger, or I say to attack!'

'I know! You don't need to repeat it every time, human!' Faunia glanced back to the group as her attention was focused on the hands of Sabrina that were grasping tightly blood-red pen-knives.

When Pedro and Faunia arrived, the King of Naga Kingdom walked forward with the old noble, the kid and a few knights equipped with shield and armor.

"Greetings! Seeing you coming from the direction of Kagat Village. Perhaps you are one of the crew members of that ship! May I know where is the Great Soledad?" The King welcomed in a resolute and powerful voice as if Pedro and Faunia was someone weaker than him.

"Your majesty! It's an honor to meet you! About your question... Madame Soledad... has passed away!" Pedro bowed in respect as he explained calmly. The King's face frowned as the other NPCs went silent as they were shocked beyond belief. This event confused the Players behind the NPCs and started 'Scanning' Pedro.

...

"Who is he?"

"Is he also an NPC?"

"Is this an event?"

The gossip of the players filled the shocked silence by the NPCs.

...

"Then... Who are you?" The King stared at Pedro with Killing intent as he grasped his silver sword. At this moment, the players finished scanning Pedro and his data showed up in their interface.

....

Name: Death (Player)

Level: 1

HP: 50/50

MP: 50/50

Stamina: 17/20

....

"Me?" The players stared at Pedro with a confused look as he chuckled towards the King, ignoring the King's 'Predator staring at its prey' look.

"I am... Death!"
