Advertisement
On the 4th day of this exciting routine, Ryan wakes up just like any other day. He Gets up, Stretches, and grabs his Sword. He pulls out his phone and looks at his Experience meter. Grinding for the past 3 days put him at 80% until level 13.
He looks outside and notices that its about to rain. The sun was coming up, but thick clouds were blocking most of the light.
Ryan decided to crawl under the covers and sleep for an extra hour.
When he wakes up it was 7:47 AM. It was raining pretty hard outside.
He gets up and notices the wind is blowing strong. He walks downstairs and Breanna had an Eggs and bacon breakfast for him. He eats his breakfast and can hear the heavy rain hit the roof outside. Ryan pays 3 gold for his meal and looks out the window. The rain was slowly going away, but it was still pretty cloudy outside.
He grabs his gear and decides he’s going to get back his own private island. When he walks into the Market District, 80 people were look up at a woman and were terrified.
Sitting on top of the fountain was a tall Pale woman. She was sitting on top of the fountain with her legs Crossed. She was wearing a Black and Violet Cloths. She had a top shirt covered with a thick and Gothic looking Jacket, and a Long black thick dress. She had Red lipsticks on, Black Hair, a Unique Tiera looking Headband.
Originally, she looked like Alexandria, but after thinking really hard about her she it was not.
People were terrified. Even the Little Market Chat Trolls were scared. People were frozen in fear.
She was just high on her little Fountain 'throne' reading a Book about Palmlandia.
Ryan doesn’t even know who she is, but people are scared of her, and him being smart realized he should be to.
Shariff Warren comes riding out on his horse with both his 3 deputies at his side and when he sees her a chill runs down his spine.
This chick was just chilling out on her little throne and people were starting to tremble before her.
Warren gets off his horse and approaches the woman. His 3 deputies stay behind. They were scared to stay by his side.
“Lady Vedra, what are you doing here?” He asked her in a Scared, yet Professional Tone.

The woman just closes her book and hops down off the fountain and slowly walks to him without saying anything. His deputies close their eyes They thought this was going to be the last of their boss.
“Enjoying the piece and quiet” She told him in her British accent while staring into his eyes.
“You’re not supposed to be here” he told her with a firm tone.
“Ahh Yes the peace agreement we had. Well I have a problem I wanted to talk to you about” She told him while putting her pale white cold hands on his cheek. Her black and Red nail polish clearly shining bright in this dark stormy cloud light setting.
She walks away and climbs back on top of the fountain and crosses her legs.
“Whats the problem?” He asked her.
“In the Agreement it said we will not Bother each other and leave each other alone. But someone here has been disturbing me while I sleep during the day” She told him while raising her voice
“What do you mean Lady Vedra?” He asked her seeming confused.
She then Raises her voice and screams.
“Every Morning! I mean Every Damn Fucking Morning One of you fucking assholes comes over to my Island While I am Sleeping and Blasts Loud Fucking music all damn day!” She screams at the top of her lungs.
“And I have had enough of it! It’s always Thump Thump Thump or Bang Bang Bang! I Can’t take this Suffering anymore! I Demand to know who it is!” She said while Screaming even louder.
People are scared of this woman, at the same time 1 person comes to mind who could do this. Everyone looks at Ryan
Ryan holding his board and his kite gets notices all the looks he’s getting and feels awkward. (This is just that scene he read in his Konosuba Book he read before he died).
“Whoever it is Don’t be Shy! To Quote the song you play every morning when you arrive “You can give the Act up now, go ahead and take a bow” She Yelled with a very displeased and Angry tone.
Ryan scratches his arm nervously and walks up to the Irate Female with his Landboarding gear in his hand.
With his head pointed down toward the ground he pushes through the crowd nervously.
He walks right up to her face and stands before her with his head down.

“wait It was you? You’re just a low-level Fire mage!” The woman said looking down at him seeming confused.
‘Yes, it was me he” told her with his head pointed down.
“Prove it” She said while standing over him.
Ryan pulls out his phone and blasts “In The Dark (Ft.Halsey) By Bring Me The Horizon. He plays the song on quarter the way in.
The whole city Vibrates, and the song makes her smile.
Ryan pauses the song and is approached behind with a friendly hug.
He turns around and Zephyr was there hugging him. She had a makeover done to her.
“I’m Back honey!” She whispered to him.
Everyone was looking at her and scratching their head.
“What Is this a bad time?” She asked him while kissing the back of his neck.
She looks up and notices Vedra Infront of her and she had pissed off glare at her. Zephyr takes a big gasp of air and steps back into the crowds.
“Warren, you know what the agreement states in the peace treaty we signed 5 years ago?” The woman said.
“Yes, Lady Vedra. I know what it states about peace breakers. But he is new here. I don’t think I ever explained…” He said while being cut off.
“Doesn’t matter. You uphold your end of the deal and I will leave this town be. Hand him OVER!” She demanded.
The 2 deputies approached Ryan from behind and Grabbed him both of his arms.
Warren looks into Ryan’s eyes with a guilty and yet sorry expression.
“I’m sorry about this. I don’t think anyone explained to you about her Island being off limits, or us having to Turn in people who try and kill her or piss her off. Lady Villano Vedra is a very ruthless Vampire that we can’t offered to be at war with again. Look We have to hand you over to her” He told Ryan with a heavy heart.
The woman walks over to run and touches his neck. He sees a Hickey left by Zephyr. She has an evil smile on her face.
Vedra grabs his arms and pulls him forward.
“Liz Get ready to teleport me home” She told a masked woman who was wearing a black Cultist Robe and a hood.
The woman starts casting a spell.
“By the way, Warren. Have you seen my Sweet little pet phoenix Daytona? she hasn’t been home for quite a while. Shes my only transport between the island and the mainland” She asked him in a sweet tone.
Half of the town who is standing near the fountain gets nervous and look at the ground.
“No mam we haven’t” He told her.
“That’s weird” She told him. Then she whistles.
A small Bird comes flying in from the distance and lands on her shoulder.
“Daytona seems to have died, somehow and Resurrected I just wondered if you knew anything about it. She was way too young to die naturally. But I will deal with that later” She said as she scratched the baby birds Chin.
“Liz lets go” Vedra demanded her servant.
Vedra Grabbed Ryan’s arm and pulled him into a portal that just opened up.
Suddenly Zephyr realizing what was going on, Try’s to chase after her “Lover”. But she was to late. They already teleported away, and the portal closed
“RYAN!!!!” Zephyr Screamed. When she realized she took him she started crying.
She ran over to Warren in a Sad Rage and grabbed him. She started Shaking him.
“WHAT DID HE DO! WHY IS SHE TAKING MY BABY!?” She Cried to him.
“He been doing something over on her island that pissed her off. Look we had to hand him off. We can’t afford to be at war with her. Look I am sorry. He was a nice guy, but My hand was forced”
Suddenly Zephyrs grabs him and pins him against the wall.
“You listen here you son of a bitch, that was the love of my Life! I’m not letting some bitch take him from me! I am going to kill her!” She screamed in his face.
Warren just stared at her new long blonde hair with Black tip highlights.
“Look I know your devastated, but He’s gone. I wouldn’t go after him. IF you try to kill her and fail, I’m going to have to hand you over to her too. Look just let him go Lady Thickmane”
“Fuck that shit!” She told him as she walks away in a pissed off rage.
“I’m coming Honey!” She screams as she sprints over to the towns Library.
