Chapter 3 An Act Done Fearlessly Even to The Gods
Kuro Kurori ssu~
I forgot to add the illustration for chapter 02. Go check it out now!
Hope you enjoyed the chapter~!
Now then, seems like I have safely respawned in the temple. I see, this place is indeed beautiful. The statue that lies in the center is this game world’s God from the Order faction, so-called 『The Seven-colored Noble God』 if I’m correct…..oh wait, I cannot afford to observe freely as the players that I’ve KILL-ed are also mixed in and gathering here. The bishop NPC is currently standing out on her own to quell the confusion… This is just right.
Player Q: 「W-what just happened back there?!」
One of the poor victims who doesn’t know anything about me, came running as soon as he respawnedーーーby the way, I have activated my 《Camouflage》 skill and change my hair color to redーーーjust like that, I successfully slipped into the crowd.
Bishop: 「Everyone, please calm down!」
The bishop of this temple seems to be the top among the bishop class as the first town is quite a large town. She’s currently trying to suppress the confusion calmly.
Bishop: 「That person is likely a messenger of chaos, and will eventually receive a divine punishment.」
Player C: 「Messenger of chaos? As expected, was it a part of an event or quest?」
Player E: 「Like hell I would know that.」
Player D: 「But that person looks like a normal player, though?」
I see, it looks like I’m called as a messenger of chaos and such. There are still some players who mistook it as a player, though. Well, my karma value seems to have dropped a lot so they’re probably not wrong, but I have to confirm it in details just to make sure.
Bishop: 「Nevertheless, please be relieved! You all have the blessings of order! And of course! We promise you that as long as you stay in this temple, you will be safe!」
Are you sure? Well, let’s leave them be like that.
My trap has been set so let’s kill them.
Rena: 「Ah! It’s her! She’s the one who killed us!」
I have turned a stranger into someone who has the same characteristics as me with my 《Camouflage》 skill and screamed towards him to bring everyone’s awareness.
(TL Note: Rena turned a male player into her)
Player G: 「Son of a bitch! How dare you show up in here!」
Player R: 「Wait! It’s not me!」
Player G: 「Shut your goddamn mouth!」
Bishop: 「Everyone, please remain calm!」
Everyone’s gaze turn to that person instantly and caused an uproar. The bishop is trying to stop it, but seems impossible.
Player S: 「KILL HER! KILL HER!」
Player T: 「JUST DO IT!」
Even some players who are entertained with this have started to come out and incited it even more. With this, it won’t be easy to control the situation… In the meantime, I moved in and just like that,ーーー
Bishop: 「Wh!!」
ーーーI activated the newly acquired 《Fatal Blow》 and 《Surprise Attack》 skills to pierce the bishop’s heart. Just before she fell down while spurting out blood from her mouth, I stole a seemingly expensive necklace or whatever that was hanging from her neck. Then, I kicked away some players and grabbed a dagger that was placed on top of the altar and it has a sacred aura which is likely to be a divine artifact or whatsoever.
Just like that, I decapitated the nuns who were the bishop’s attendants, jumped over the players’ head,ーーーlit up the torch with the oil that I stole some time agoーーーand ran through the temple. The players who has 『Water Magic』 appeared to be struggling to extinguish the fire as I have lit the torch right in the middle of the same crumpled place as the chaos started. To begin with, it’s not good to pour water into a fire that used oil, you know?
Player R: 「tsk! It’s her! That girl is the real one!」
Player E: 「She’s the one who lit the fire!」
Player D: 「Capture her!」
Player G: 「You guys are a hindrance!」
When they have started to notice me, I will already be close to the exit. I instantly killed the temple gatekeepers, who did not know anything about the uproar that happened inside, and ran towards the underground tomb on the north side which is the opposite direction from last time.
The guard NPCs who are blocking the road were hit with my dagger’s hilt. Then, I grabbed one of the guards, cut off both arms and used his body as a shield.
Guard A: 「You bastard!!」
His comrade shouted with furious facial expression but it’s only an annoyance for me. With this, the rear guards cannot interfere.
I moved forward slowly while carrying him and then threw him in the middle of them who were trying to restrain me.
Guard A: 「!! Hans!」
Oh? The armless guard’s name is Hans, I see… Don’t tell me, the developers even gave the mob NPCs a name too?
If that’s the case, my attachment and feeling of guilt…
…won’t even go out. It’s a pity.
Guard A: 「You bastard! Don’t think we will capture you peacefully!!」
Guard B: 「Prepare one or two of your limbs!」
Isn’t that for everyone of you? If you’re not careful, you might not be able to eat properly after this, you know? Well, I don’t know about NPC, though….
I threw the torch right above Hans(?)-san’s head and used my 《Throwing》 skill for the oil bag that I had loaded in my pocket. It then broke upon impact and the contents were scattered for the torch fire to arrive.
Guard A: 「WAAAAA?!」
Guard B: 「Put it out! Put it out!」
I grabbed the nape of one of the panicked guards and threw him into a nearby wooden houseーーーOf course, while on fireーーー. Then, I ran away from the guards, who just changed their objective from capturing me to putting out the fire, by using the smoke as a cover.
A lot of announcement came out as soon as I entered the tomb on the north of the city but let’s postpone it for now as I need to quickly find a place to hide before checking it first. The plan is to hide in this place for a while, you see.
