Naturally, after having breakfast with my daughter and her friends, who couldn’t stop talking about the World Quest thingy, we moved the conversation to something I was planning, and about the World Boss, the Demon King of Death, Thanatos.
“So you’re saying he’ll be summoned once the next month begins?” My daughter asked.
“I didn’t knew an item that could tell you when a World Boss’ gonna show up existed!” Anna was excited.
“It is certainly very interesting…” Elisa wondered, caressing her golden hair. “Lady Elayne, do you have some sort of plan to deal with him?”
“Well, I was thinking that instead of letting him trash Arcadia, we could slay him before that time limit…” I said.
“W-What?!” All three of them were taken back. ．
“H-How’s that even possible anyways?” Anna asked. “Isn’t he in the Underworld, which is sealed with a gate? How could you enter there to begin with?”
“Maybe she knows something we don’t.” Said Elisa.
Well, if I tell them that I am slowly figuring out a way to enter the Underworld through the same portals the idiot of the Demon King creates all the time, they’ll get even more confused. So I’ll just keep it a secret.
“We do know a way.” I nodded. “But it is a secret, we’ll only reveal it once we begin such a plan… Right Mark?”
“Huh? Y-Yeah!” Mark nodded, playing along. “It’s a secret for now, sorry girls.”
“Anyways, for such a thing… Let’s say it is hypothetically possible to go the Underworld.” My daughter said. “How do you plan to beat a World Boss with just a few players?”
“I am quite sure from what I’ve gathered that once the gates open, he’ll gain even more power as his status as a world boss is fully granted.” I said. “And he’ll be able to expand his Nether everywhere, absorbing millions of souls. He’s quite the hardcore Necromancer-type of monster. So the earlier we get rid of him, the better, before the entirety of the world is covered on Undead obeying his will.”
“Hmmm…” My daughter kept listening to me.
“We’ve recently evolved and developed skills and magic that works really well against him, so there’s that too. And the recent World Boss Quest reduced his HP by -20%. That aside, we’re not planning on going alone. We want to recruit as many players as we can. And I was thinking on abusing my own popularity for that.” I smiled. “How about I join the Arena Tournament that’s coming soon where many guilds are about to clash?”
“Wait, what? I didn’t thought you would do PvP…” My daughter was surprised. “Wait, what are you even planning to do, mom?”
“I need to prove them that I am strong and that I am deserving of their attention and help…” I said. “Maybe I’ve already done a lot before, but Scarlet herself told me that this alone wouldn’t convince everyone to follow me, or help me… If I can gain their recognition even more, and upload more videos as I’ve done, it might actually be possible to bring tons of players against the Demon King, even before he’s summoned!”
Pretty much, I want to bring all the high-level players I can down there and slay him with all our combined power and efforts before he makes an even greater mess out of the world of Arcadia.
“I’m a World Boss myself too, right? The first ever.. But despite my popularity, it feels like I am still quite detached from the entire community. I want to do something that’ll prove everyone I can be more engaging and all of that…” I sighed. “Well, it is all just hypothetical but…”
“No, I get it.” My daughter nodded. “Sounds good! We’ll help you out spreading the rumor, the Tournament’s next week, are you ready to do it now?”
“We’ll get ready for that day.” I nodded.
“Yeah, I’ll be participating as well.” Mark nodded.
The PvP Arena Tournament is a special one named [Guild Battle] which is a series of 1v1 Fights between the strongest members of each Guild, we’ll be registering our guild there and do it.
Yeah, we might be a bit under leveled compared to the strongest pro players, but that doesn’t mean much when I have so many buffs and boosts, and also when I’m a World Boss.
Of course, we’ll try to level up as much as possible until that day too.
But for now, time to go to the gym!
Tomorrow the week will start again, so I better exercise as much as possible to strengthen myself in here as well, focusing too much on Arcadia will only make me feel exhausted.
“Alright, see ya!” I went to the gym with Mark, where we quickly meet up with Lily, Rita, and now our new ally Jenny, who ended being introduced to the whole “the game is real” really out of nowhere…
“Hey Elayne!” Jenny waved her hand from afar.
“Hello Jenny, Rita, Lily.” I smiled. “Let’s do some exercising for now though. Jenny, we’ll get to your awakening once we go to Lily’s house.”
“Oh… really? But I didn’t want to do exercises here…” Jenny complained.
“Come on dear, it’ll be fun!” I said with a giggle. “Also, you won’t be able to awaken a physique if you’re not at top condition physically!”
“Eh?! So to gain powers I need to be healthy?!” Jenny complained. “Lame…”
“Well if you don’t want to, then you won’t get any power.” Mark crossed his arms.
“W-Wait, I didn’t said I didn’t want to!” Jenny grew desperate. “I-I’ll do it… Whatever it takes! There’s no way I’m not getting something, at least a bit of power so I can defend against these crazy monsters showing up all the time in the news!”
“Hahaha, I guess she’s quite spirited.” Lily laughed.
“Well, that’s the spirit, girl!” Rita smiled. “Let’s go! Don’t worry, there’s a lot of eye candies around the gym so you’ll enjoy it too.”
“Eye candies?” Jenny wondered, as she glanced around, and quickly realized what Rita meant. “Oh, hell yeah.” She quickly began glancing at the many handsome and muscular young men exercising around. “Okay, maybe I can get used to this…”
She reminds me of Rita when she was younger…
