Ascyaf O Vivid: The VRMMORPG Story

Chapter 15: Party Bus?

The players turned their heads, looking towards the direction the sound was coming from only to see a player with a blood red greatsword along with a light black (armor) armor gleaming. Looking at the player's appearance, the other players immediately kept quiet and even tried to get away from him, allowing him to get closer to Vera easily.

 

There is no way a player in Leszl City will not recognize who it is, with his performance already clear who he is, Yaka. Yaka may not be a very strong player, but he is known for something else ... RMT .. yes, Real Money Trading (real money trading).

 

There is another reason why Vivid can get this popular, it is because the Vivid currency, Inar can be said to be a type of crypto currency since the use of Inar is growing and is not limited to Vivid itself. Ever since this kind of thing happened, the exchange of real currencies with Inar or vice versa was inevitable.

 

And Yaka was known for that kind of thing since on the first day he played Vivid, he immediately bought the equipment in the Trade Union.

 

Trade Union, the organization that works by receiving Items, be it from players or residents who will then be distributed throughout the world through their branches. Briefly, they can be said to be like an online shopping app that provides a place for items from different corners to be sold to all over the world with lightning delivery. And Trade Unions have one thing clear, ITEMS IN TRADE UNIONS ARE EXPENSIVE!

 

Since it was impossible to deliver the goods purchased through the usual method due to too long distance or terrain obstacles, Trade Unions used teleportation tools as their way of delivering the items that had been purchased.

 

The other player only sighed, not wanting to deal with Yaka since who knew how many times he had changed equipment by buying in the Trade Union. For such a thing to happen, he is definitely not an ordinary person and the player does not want to make trouble with him.

 

Some try to think positively. Feeling Vera will probably do this kind of thing again in the future, but most of the players are just staring at Akuji — who is considered to have snatched their chance— with a murderous gaze.

 

Seeing the reaction of the players around him, Vera sighed internally. Even if he wanted to ignore what Yaka said and point at other players, it most likely remained useless since no one even shouted in protest at Yaka's words.

 

'Why do I feel bad on my first day?' thought Vera, silently covering up what she felt. Other than the time when he picked up his weapon-related skill, the Tree Skill Shoot Master, a bow. What happened afterwards was completely opposite to his expectations.

 

"Well, well it looks like the party members have been assigned." Vera said casually, sending a party invitation to the four others who quickly agreed and started introducing themselves.

 

Saby and Yaka, melee attackers with light sword weapons and large swords. Vera and Nuk, two archers and finally Akuji, an elementalist. There was no one who could act as a tanker in the party, but since most of them did not aim to hunt a boss, they did not think too much about it.

 

"So, where are we going?" ask Akuji.

 

"Hmm? Maybe to an area near the city? Anyway I just played Vivid today." Vera says. Hailed nod by others, immediately agreed to the idea but—

 

"That's boring."

 

Yaka immediately gave a firm rejection. "Why not take the goblin subjugation quest? They are weakening at the moment."

 

"You know, I'm still even at zero—"

 

"That doesn't matter," cut Yaka. "I alone was enough to fight those weak goblins" he continued confidently. Showing his level that has reached 46 and the high-end equipment that is always updated, what Yaka said is not wrong.

 

"Err, okay?" vera replied and although it sounded less certain, Yaka immediately went and took the quest he was referring to.

 

Since goblin extermination quests were common quests that were always available in the Paying Soldiers Association, there wasn't much difficulty in being able to pick up and execute those quests.

 

Coming out of the Pay Soldiers Association, their party immediately came out of the city. Maybe some players still followed them at the beginning, but soon dwindled. Hoping not to disturb Vera and continue what they were working on earlier. 

 

"It doesn't seem like a lot of goblins are in sight" Vera said.

 

"Maybe it's because the quest to eradicate them is popular?" nuk said casually.

 

"Then we go deeper." Yaka reigned, did not wait for the opinions of others and immediately advanced to the front—

 

 

To be greeted by Saby's warning which had been tense, but ...

 

A slash! A slash! A slash!

 

... A few slashes Yaka made, immediately welcoming the goblin's attack and knocking down the goblin that attacked him within seconds. Since the goblin level itself was only in the dozens against the superior level and equipment he had, defeating the goblin was not a matter of meaning to him.

 

However, as if to be a sign, several other goblins came attacking making the other members pull out their respective weapons to fight back but still—

 

"Triple Slash!"

 

Yaka immediately acted, taking out a Tier 2 Skill from the Tree Skill Sword Master, Triple Slash. Ever since Yaka's greatsword had the fire element attribute, his three slashes produced a dazzling blazing effect, quickly taking out goblins intent on attacking them in each slash made.

 

Leaving no room for the others to be able to make any moves, making the four people stand there like fools

 

"Come there!" yaka shouted, running towards the direction where the goblin came from without noticing the others.

 

Making Nuk, Saby, and Vera look at each other doubtfully, just staring at each other. While Akuji just shrugged his shoulders and said, "We better go after him."

 

"Yes, I think you're right.”

 

"Of course, if we don't catch up to him soon he might be gone soon,” Akuji replied.

 

"So she's a lost child now?"

 

"Well, I think you can even think of him as a lost child if we don't see him soon" Akuji joked before the four chased after Yaka and regrouped.

 

But the same thing repeated. Again, again, and again.

 

When their party meets the group of goblins, the goblins are immediately felled by Yaka's attack. And their party only immediately went deeper and deeper in the forest.

 

— Isn't this a party bus?

 

A chat from the stream's audience appears in Vera's view, representing what Saby, Nuk, and himself think.

 

As for Akuji, Vera had no idea what was inside her head since her facial expression had remained the same ever since they met. It was not a cold or expressionless face type, instead he was closer to a smiling person just that Akuji's expression was really hard to explain.

 

Yaka's sword flared up again, for some time when he dropped the goblin in front of him, causing the party's emotions to fall. Obviously, this was not what they expected.

 

Even if the goblin was not as easy as before to fall since the goblin level itself was increasing, but it was still not a problem that Yaka could not handle. And ...

 

"Let's go deeper."

 

... Yaka reigned, for some time as he said just to show his intentions with no room for discussion.

 

"Of course," Akuji replied casually as if ignoring the party atmosphere that could not be said.
