MMORPG: The Elementalist

Chapter 468: I Will Ask Hundreds of My Men to Whack You Within Minutes—Try Me

Frankly speaking, the young girl Moonwaltz Rimbo was indeed eye candy. She was not exceptionally beautiful, but one would not be able to take their eyes off her charming demeanor when she worked so wholeheartedly on the task at hand. Her unique fashion sense also made her oddly attractive. So, it was not surprising that many admirers were actually here in the shop to see her. Moreover, those flirters seemed to be her classmates in real life too.

Undoubtedly, a girl with an attitude was definitely more appealing than a girl that only had a pretty face.

Subjugator turned back and explained to his members.

The few teenagers in front of them were actually Moonwaltz’s schoolmates. They were a year older than her and had approached her with certain intentions. Apparently, she did ask for help from her friends in school before, asking them to look for her whenever they got any nice metal and wished to forge them into equipment or other items. That was why she had attracted a lot of attention in school and some of them had started to pursue her in the game.

Since they were in a no-battle zone, these brats were unable to do anything inappropriate aside from talking nonsensically. Moonwaltz Rimbo just outright ignored them since the beginning. She never thought that they would be this persistent and clingy. After she established Moonwaltz’s Smithy, the guy known as Richie Hong and his followers were always in attendance.

Such a nuisance.

Seeing that the few teenagers still babbling non-stop beside Moonwaltz Rimbo, the hot-tempered Subjugator balanced the broadsword on his shoulder and walked up to them.

Some of the players that were already annoyed by those teenagers recognized who Subjugator was immediately. They wordlessly made way for the Ignis Swordmaster and threw the few guys a gloating glance.

‘Hehe, here comes your nemesis.’

***

“Moonwaltz.”

Subjugator’s burly figure made the teenagers way shorter than him in front look like children.

Especially when Moonwaltz reacted instinctively toward the call and stopped her work instantly to look up at Subjugator, it became more obvious that those teenagers were just a bunch of chatterboxes, a bunch of annoying brats that tried hard but failed to gain the attention from the adults.

“Brother Subjugator?”

Moonwaltz Rimbo grinned, exposing her cute little canine teeth and talked to Subjugator like an old friend, “Are you here because you have something good for your little sis?”

“Of course. How dare I visit you if I do not bring along something that is up to your standards? Who do you think I am, some uneducated kid?”

Subjugator pointed to those teenagers occupying the front row with his chin.

Moonwaltz Rimbo did not bother to shift her gaze and spoke sweetly, “Ignore them. Pass me the materials. What do you plan to make this time? You just need to tell me.”

“…”

Qin Ruo was baffled.

Is this straightforward girl really the same girl he had met? She was not this friendly to him and even nicknamed him “rascal”. ‘Why is she so polite to Subjugator? What have I done to her to be treated differently?’

Qin Ruo rubbed his nose. But he was now more interested in the teenagers in front, who were glaring at Subjugator with a raised chin.

‘They are led by arrogant leaders like Netherclaw and Black Dragon, so no wonder they behave very much like them being cast in the same mold. Let’s see how Subjugator is going to deal with them.’

Qin Ruo hid in between Judge, Black Rock, and the others. He also had his face covered by the dark robe, so he was not as eye-catching as the beaming Black Rock.

“What do you mean, old man? Didn’t you see that I am talking to Moonwaltz? There is no business for you here, so get lost!” The leader of the pack, Richie Hong, was clearly provoked by Subjugator’s sarcasm. He started to spoke aggressively too, trying to intimidate Subjugator by reminding him that he was an old man, followed by an even more daring dismissal order as if he was the actual owner of the shop.

“Didn’t you hear him, Subjugator? Shoo now. Haha!” The weird grin on Black Rock’s face, as well as Judge’s and Fateless’s attempt to hold back at laughing showed just how insulting these words must be to Subjugator.

Subjugator was deeply offended by how the little guy disrespected him in front of his friends. His eyebrows twitched in rage.

Under everyone’s sight, he put aside his weapon and tightened his knuckles to create a series of cracking sounds. He drew his face near them and twisted it slightly to exhibit his ferocity. “Since you know I am an old man, why don’t you show me some respect, kid? Your parents never taught you any manners? Hmm?”

He spoke while pushing them away from Moonwaltz Rimbo with his bulky figure.

“How dare you…” After Handsome Hong and his three friends were forcefully cast aside, he pointed a finger at Subjugator’s nose and was about to greet him with expletives. He paused abruptly when he realized Moonwaltz Rimbo had stopped working and looked at them, frowning. Aware that an owner can freely banish anyone who curses within their domain, Handsome Hong gritted his teeth and pointed silently at Subjugator for a while, then decided to swallow the swear words that were already on the tip of his tongue.

Instead, Black Rock and the others were the ones who refused to let Subjugator go.

“Who is this guy? Why is he so bullish?”

“I agree. As a grown-up, you should not take advantage of the young uns. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? Don’t tell anyone you are actually from Fallen Angels.” Fateless joined in the jeer as if he was on Handsome Hong’s side. He shook his head and scorned at Subjugator.

“Fallen Angels?” Handsome Hong now only noticed the insignia imprinted with the word “Forbidden” that hung brilliantly on Subjugator’s chest. He frowned as he recalled something important and pointed at Subjugator. “Damn, you are Winter Demon’s guy. Our leader and he go a long way back. You are so finished now! Don’t let me see you at his place in future. Or else I will ask hundreds of my men to whack you within minutes. Mark my words.”

“…” Subjugator went blank. Absolute blank. He was “terrified” and astonished at the same time. ‘How bold!’

Laughing inwardly, he tilted his head to take a look at the unmoving Black Rock, as well as Qin Ruo at the back who had no plan to stand up for him. Subjugator suddenly felt dejected and shrugged. He smiled bitterly and messaged them. “Are you my Clan Leader or not? I do appreciate some support.”

“Why should I get involved with your problem?” Qin Ruo quietly gave him a middle finger behind Black Rock’s shoulder. “Take care of them yourself. If you can’t even handle this, I will make you Black Rock’s subordinates. You will have to follow his orders in future.”

As soon as the order was said, Black Rock immediately nodded in approval. “Wise move, captain. Actually, we have long felt that Subjugator is at best a grassroots member, judging from his below average strength.”

“How about others? Don’t you all agree?”

“Agreed!”

“Not a bad suggestion.”

“Subjugator, the way I see it, why not let me take care of them on your behalf. Consequently, instead of becoming Black Rock’s crony, you serve me. Deal? Though you are weak in combat, I can still make good use of your excellent Mining skill.” Even Judge started to take a jab at Subjugator.

Subjugator could only vent his annoyance toward the teen that claimed that he could whack him with hundreds of men under five minutes. He scowled further, and his tone became gruffer. “F*cking brat, I have just met your leader Netherclaw. Even he’s not as bold as you. You really have guts. Suit yourself and go ahead!” His threatening tone and fierce expression made him looked like a ruthless outlaw.

“Damn you, old man. Who… who are you trying to frighten?” Handsome Hong puffed rapidly. He had just realized those men who stood right opposite the steaming furnace were also from Fallen Angels. Intimidated, he lost his arrogance.

Among them, the one who spoke out for him just now had three Legendary equipment. As for others, at worst they were also dressed in Dark Gold. Subjugator was the relatively poor one. He only has a set of Gold equipment on.

‘That being said, this fellow had Dark Gold on him before, why has his equipment downgraded?’

After they found out their confronters were all suited in high-tier attire, all the teens, including Handsome Hong, were too terrified to speak up at this point. They heard enough horrifying rumors about Fallen Angels to be utterly frightened.

Handsome Hong, although had joined the Netherspirit’s Claw Clan not long ago, was still only considered as an outsider. He did not actually have the guts and backing to offend the clan created by the No.1 antihero in the Angel Faction.

With his friend went mute, Handsome Hong turned timid facing Subjugator alone. He looked at the few big guns opposite him warily and gulped. His mind raced to find an excuse for him to escape this place immediately without being embarrassed.

As his sight drifted all around the place nervously looking for option, he suddenly saw a few familiar figures entered the smithy and walked toward him.

“Leader!”

Handsome Hong eyes beamed with hope and he exclaimed in surprise. He had found his savior.

The exclamation terrified Subjugator a little.

‘Wait, what? No way. Netherclaw has come back from the lair and is here as well? Such an unfortunate coincidence.’

While Subjugator was still in shock, Handsome Hong had dashed toward the newcomers at a speed that would put even Fateless to shame.

Within the crowd, Qin Ruo who had already turned his head around turned grim after he identified the new visitors. He snorted and said, “What a small world. We have bumped to Netherspirit’s Claw people way too many times today. But this should be the most interesting yet…” He was actually looking forward to meeting Netherspirit’s Claw people here.

***

The few Netherspirit’s Claw members who had just entered the smithy did not immediately hear Handsome Hong. Moonwaltz’s Smithy was jammed with noises and heatwaves, making everything a blur inside the compound.

Right until Handsome Hong was in front of him, only he raised his head in surprise and asked, “Richie Hong? What are you doing here?”

“Leader, help me out. There are a few bastards from Fallen Angels over there. They are here to seduce my girl!” Handsome Hong regained his boastfulness after he found his powerful ally.

His members were all astonished and looked simultaneously toward the direction where Handsome Hong was pointing at.

Led by that person—who was in fact Dark Dragon, Handsome Hong’s leader, trembled slightly as he got a good look at the few people who had started to turn to face him, one after another. His expression changed significantly.

‘They… seduced your girl?’
