《Demon Artificer》1: Prologue
Advertisement
It all began on that nasty day, when I came back from yet another dungeon with bags full of loot.
As your typical "melee dps" without any skills of appraisal and repair, I came inside the shop where I usually repair my equipment and sell my loot.
Before I go too much into the details of my todays fatal accident, it will be better if I tell you a bit about myself.
As a "Dark Gamer" who lives from what little money I could scrape from the game.
I had an avatar that was packed with the exploits to the point I was a "cheat like character"...
I know what you say, that I'm cheap, that whatever problems I got from today's disaster I probably deserve 'em?
Well fuck you! When your game become something that puts money on a table, and food in your mouth, then and only then you can snarl at me...
Ok, ok. Back to the point. I came inside that shop and started to unload my bags, when one specific object drew the attention of the young clerk that was sitting behind the counter.
- What is this thing, strange... I can't even appraise it? (Young clerk)
In his hand he was holding a odd, almost transparent dark crystal that had a red menacing glow.
- Maybe your skill is too low, I'll better call your boss. (Me)
- I suggest that you'd better not do that Sir. (Young clerk)
- And why is that?! (Me)
- Because from last night he is so much wasted, that he can't stand, much less help you Sir. (Young clerk)
His words made me temporarily flabbergasted, but then I quickly got my shit together.
- You know what?! Fuck it! I'll sell this shit on auction! (Me)
Full of rage I quickly grabbed his hand, then forcefully tried to reclaim my item...

Suddenly the crystal in our hands glowed with a blinding light, and the world exploded with a loud crack.
When I came to, I immediately noticed that something was very wrong.
I started to feel sick to the point that my surrounding started changing to a warped spinning cascade of sounds and images..
I felt strange, like someone who is trying to push the right foot in the left shoe, and that is definitely dangerous in VR games.

Nameless Hypocrite
"Bastard, surrender yourself!" "You think you can escape our encirclement?!" "An omnicidal fiend like you can only atone in death!" Despite his precarious situation, a young man ignored the union's provocations. His violet robe was in tatters, showing the incredible number of attacks he received, yet there was no sign of injury. Noticing the light smile tugging at his lips, the pursuing heroes warily watched him, cautious of a final attack. It was only by working together that they could corner a monster like him. An arrow pierced the air, beelining towards the young man. A malicious gleam revealed itself in his eyes; he unsheathed his sword, a long, curved blade, and deflected the projectile, spiking it into the ground. The archer's eyes widened before being split in two. He died suddenly and indignantly. The group backed away; their former confidence diminished greatly by the invisible counter. It was then that the young man sighed, his voice full of lament and self-pity. "Being a saint truly is difficult, even the world cannot understand my righteous actions." The expressions of the surrounding heroes turned ugly. Such blatant hypocrisy! Yes, the protagonist is a villain. We don't do morals here. New chaps when I write them
