"Zia! Wake up!" I heard a familiar annoying voice... it's my sister.
Ugh... My body hurts... I took off my console and I as I look at the window, it's already night time. Did I just sleep all day? I'm pretty sure it's still daylight when we are fighting the centaurs.
"Thank God! You really scared the hell out of me. The nurse earlier told me that you didn't eat anything today and still hasn't woken up yet. Just what the heck happened?" She pretty uptight...
"Oh, I was playing the game and I passed out and it seems I regained consciousness just now. Sorry, Sis, it won't happen again. Just so you know, you introduced me to the game..." How did I pass out? If I remember it correctly, I was able to tolerate the pressure of the Centaur King's aura so how did that happen to me?
"It's alright puffy head. Just don't scare your big sis like that. You know that you're the only one I have now and I will do my best to protect you. Just don't overexert ok?" Don't say such embarrassing things like that.
"Thank you, sis. Oh, by the way, I was forced to log out of the game and I don't know the reason. Also, I think that the last time I was in the game was still daylight but now it's already dark? What do you think happened to me?" I asked because I really want to know what really happened to me.
"Well, there could be some reasons. One of them is, if you sleep in the game you will be able to continue sleeping in real life. Sleeping in-game can also be set what time you will wake up but I think that is not the reason for your situation because you didn't set any time or something I guess. So I'm gonna go with, you being affected by some kind of sleeping spells." Sleeping spells? But who will cast something like that to me?
"Well, don't worry. If you were affected by sleeping spells out of combat like eating something with sleeping effects then you will be auto logged out of the game a couple of seconds after but if you are in combat or near players, contact with others would wake you up. This is because of some people who have ill intent so I think your avatar still has it's chastity and purity. Haha!" Maybe that's why I was sleeping the whole time. Also, that joke wasn't funny at all.
*GROWL* Ugh... I think that's my stomach asking for fuel.
"Don't worry, I bought you some fruits!" Ugh...
"Seriously sis?"
"Nah, just kidding. Haha. You should have to see your face right now. It's hilarious! Haha." She really knows how to annoy me.
"Here, I bought some pizza on the way. Eating something like these from time to time isn't that bad right, sis?" She's so happy, ready to eat. Healthy, my butt.
"You really look like an idiot eating a pizza with a smiling face," I bluntly said.
"Since when do pizza have a smiling face? What a nerd." That's what you get from what I have said? Seriously sis?
After eating to our heart's content, sis went home after we talked nonsense stuff like how she likes to comb her hair while doing pushups and stuff. I just nod but I really don't listen to her jibber jabber. I just want to be with her because her presence alone makes me happy. Annoys me big time when she talks while eating though.
After that and all the stuff I have to do, I decided to go back to the game because I really want to know what happened and see if our guild is still in one piece.
-Scy's Guild-
I opened my eyes and saw the night sky, I'm lying down and I can feel a furry and soft cloth. So I lifted my body up and saw my guildmates cooking stuff in a bonfire. Just wait a minute? Where am I?
"Hey Scy, it seems Zia logged in back to the game." Elou saw me and called Scy.
"Hey Zia, are you alright? I tried to look for you but I didn't find you anywhere. Thankfully you showed up here in our checkpoint which is the guild hall's location." Scy said. This is really weird. I really thought he would know what happened to me.
"Just wait a second. What about the Centaur King? Where is he?" This is not making any sense at all.
"I tried my best to buy us some time and when I'm almost dead, Elou, Lili and Akko finally arrived and saved me. We tried our best to defeat the Centaur King but it was too tough for us and managed to escape the place. We also took a lot of damage but fortunately, none of us died including the new recruits." I'm not really buying his explanation. I was sure that I saw him transform into some dark element monster soul but how did I log out of the game?
"I saw you transformed into some dark monster soul form. I'm entirely sure."
"All of us know here that I once have a dark monster soul but all of us also know that he shipped a long time ago. If what you are saying is true, then where are you when we were fighting the Centaur King?" Is he really doing this? It looks like I'm the ones at wrong here. Did I dig my own grave?
"Uhmmm well, I was hiding at one of the trees from afar because you told me to stay put after helping me. But for some reason, I logged out automatically and I just woke up earlier. But I'm really sure that I really saw you transform." I know what I saw and I would not change my decision!
"Maybe you're just hallucinating things because of the Centaur King's aura. When I was fighting him, I also thought that I was a rabbit. Haha." He's trying to divert the topic!
"Well I don't care if you hide this or that but we are your guildmates, right? You should at least trust us." I don't want to be on his bad side but I'm honest about my feelings.
"Be honest because you are my guildmates? Then can you explain this?" Scy pointed to a place. There's a big space but it's just a pile of ashes but on large quantity. What is he getting at?
Huh? As I look carefully, I saw a badge of our guild... just what the heck happened here?
"It's our guild hall. Someone burnt our damn guild hall while we were fighting. Telling me to trust all of you? Think again, little missy." What?! Who would do such a horrible thing?!
I'm also one to talk about trust. Aiming to be strong to beat Scy is like betraying his trust. Right now, I don't know what to say. Scy's really having a rough time. We just met the new recruits like earlier today and now this happened. If someone really did this on purpose then, I think I know what he or she is aiming for. It's to break the new guild.
"Hey, Zia. Don't take it too seriously. Scy is just, you know, pissed of what happened here. He said earlier that we look really happy building that guild hall and now... it's really just kinda annoying you know." Elou tried to cheer me up but I think I took it too far.
"Yeah, I think I put some oil to the fire, oh not literally about the guild hall but about Scy's feelings," I replied.
This is the first time I talked back to Scy like that. They said he's a good guy and he deserves to be their leader. Also, he's the reason why they become this strong. He even saved me earlier today. They really do respect him even if it's just a game. It kinda made me sad. I think he needs to calm down a bit first.
I stood up and went to the remains of the guild hall. Maybe I can find anything left right?
I removed the pile of ashes. As I checked carefully, hmmmmm? What's this? A hard stone? No, it's not a hard stone but it's a flint! It's a tool to make fire! But why would the culprit use... I get it! I have to talk to Scy!
I rushed to Scy to tell him what I have found!
"Scy! I think I got some clues to catch the culprit!" I said a bit loudly making the people around look at me. It seems we now have some trust issues...
"So what are the clues you were talking about?" He asked.
"Well, I found this." I showed him the flint I found buried in the ashes.
"Well it's just a normal flint and I think most of us... Oh wait, that's right! If the culprit used this to make a fire then that means the culprit doesn't have a fire spell! Of course, a lot of us don't use fire spell and this also means that the culprit doesn't have his own flint! For an average player, a flint is a must for an adventure." Not bad Scy. He figured it out without me explaining.
"Every one of you, show us your flints!" Scy ordered.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
