Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

After that, Consequences

What is going on? Did they find out I interfered in the Quest they were doing and chased me?

Yes, with all the opportunities. That's very likely to happen. But—

"We're sorry!"

"Eh?" My mind faltered. "Yeah?"

What did he say before? Why apologize? Shouldn't he be looking for me for messing up his Quest?

Let's make sure the situation is for now. "Why are you suddenly apologizing?"

That guy, if it's not wrong, is Leml, right? He slightly lowered his head and scratched the back of his head. "That's .. you know that's because we killed you at the beginning of the game. I didn't know that you were a player back then so .. forgive us for that."

"Wait a minute, isn't that PK allowed? Why are you even apologizing to me?"

I have a lot of question marks floating around me. But for now, I'll ask the main thing that needs to be straightened out first.

"PK, technically it is allowed." Now, it was the girl's turn to answer my question.

"But for Good Alignment players it's not the thing to do. However it lowers the value of your alignment whether you like it or not, and for us, it is better to avoid it because it will change the attitude of the Residents to you. In addition, doing PK on novice players will make you get a pretty heavy Despena" he continued.

"Huummmm. Yeah, yeah, so there's something like that, huh?"

I had previously kept the thought of replying to their deeds, but it seemed like they had also gotten a direct reply from the system so just throw it away. Doing so would not make me any advantage other than adding enemies. Well, adding to that is a profit, right?

"Then, anu .. Who are you?" I don't know the girl's name.

"Ah, yes, sorry before. I'm Leml da—"

"I didn't ask you." I'm talking to someone else so don't bother me, Leml. Oh, by the way, you don't actually need to introduce yourself because I've found out your name through the results of the previous assessment, okay.

The girl laughed when she saw my behavior. Is there anything strange?

"Uhum. It's bad of me, I'm Lialia" he said, extending a hand. Sure, I accept that.

"I'm Dirae, just call Rae if it feels too long." Well, it's not too far from my real name so it's really okay.

"certain."

We smile at each other. I looked back at Lialia, even though she was taller than me it seemed like she was still in her teens, but ...

"Is there something strange about Dirae?"

"... Nothin. It's okay."

I glanced at Lialia's perfectly developed chest and yep, the bloodless pain when comparing her to mine just appeared. Humph! I hate you growing up!

"Then is there anything else until you bother looking for me here, Lialia?" Yes, from here on is the main problem.

"There's no particular reason, we just happened to see you and Leml said he'd apologize if he could see you again."

"Like that?"

I didn't see or hear anything that indicated a lie. Yes, this kind of pure 'coincidence' event can sometimes also occur.

"Then it doesn't matter if I sign you up to the friends list?"

"Hey. Leml, it's kinda ...."

Lialia was warning Leml who suddenly asked like that. Does he still feel bad?

"Yes, that's okay, too."

I'm just starting the game so I still need a lot of general information for EFO. However, the most basic things to not realize are precisely the benchmark because it becomes a kind of unwritten rule.

Lialia herself looked surprised and looked at me with wide eyes. Well, what's up?

"Are you sure? You don't need to think, he's a bad guy who's gonna eat a pretty girl like you who's still 17 tahu—"

"I'm into adulthood, okay?!" I whispered unconsciously.

Where does he think I'm 17? Well, it is thought that younger than his actual age is indeed a compliment, even he praised me directly so it is okay. But, looking at Lialia's mouth that gaped afterwards and back and forth observing my height and ....

You don't have to do everything!

I reached out and pinched his cheek. Wake him up from whatever daydream he did.

Good. Well, since he has regained consciousness, take my hand back from him. Lialia rubbed the reddish part of her cheeks. While I take a long breath.

"me too. Does that hurt?"

"No, not really. Just why is your physical strength big enough to reduce my HP with just that?"

"Oh, yes, it's probably just because of my race correction."

"really? What'sthat?"

"Statistics Strength and Agility have a 10% bonus%."

"That's big, isn't it?"

"Yes, maybe? But because of that, my HP was low, so I couldn't count on it. Besides I don't want to feel pain either, yeah."

"Even if it was me, I didn't want to feel pain from being on the front line either. That's why I chose to be a witch!"

"Haa, I also want to be a witch, huh. But I don't have any attack spells because this race takes a lot of Skills deflautly."

“How much is it?”

“Six. Too bad I have to spend points for Appraisal. You know, earlier I thought it would be provided system but, ‘eh?’ that's how I look at it.”

“Aa ... is that yes? I was surprised and immediately took it. In any case in the novel, the ability to judge is the ultimate ability!”

"Anu .. are you done?"

"Shut up" we said simultaneously to the forgotten Leml.

"But, Lialia. We should also do our Quest."

"Ah. That's true too."

"Quest's? May I know what a Quest is?"

"It's okay, this is just an advanced Quest from the previous Quest. It was a search against any remaining power from the Vampire that was found. Moreover, the conquest, although calculated successfully but not completely with the results of third-party interference,”, Lialia said a bit of distress, especially in the second half.

Ah, that third party might be me.

"Huh .. when I just met a decent interlocutor and want to talk more."

"It's okay, we better sign up as friends now."

Yes, after that Lialia and I signed up as friends by entering each other with unique EFO ID and direct confirmation. For Leml, would he just be an extra item? After all, EFO is an MMO so it's not bad to add one or two acquaintances.

"Do you not want to be with us back in town?"

City yes ... I would like to but it is impossible for me now.

"No, I'll stay here. I also have a Quest to complete first," I refused lightly.

"Also, Sirae, is someone with a Navy Blue coat to the ashes visible around here?"

"Hmm? Not particularly. I haven't seen anyone but me and the Inhabitants who gave me the Quest lately."

"so yeah. Then I'll see you."

"See you too."

We wave each other's hands. Until the figures of Lialia and Leml disappeared from my sight, I still thought a thing or two about their Quest before returning to the river to tan the skin.

"The person they were looking for in the Quest was probably me," I whispered slowly to the point of not being heard by anyone.

Yes, the bodo.

Not that I lied either. I really don't see anyone else wearing a coat like that.

I continued to focus on tanning and after it was done, I immediately logged out to take a break.
