Relaying what they learned from the three builder brothers, Zen informed them they would head into town first, where the missing sheep would most likely be. 

“I’ll look for the red-hooded girl and hunter in the forest,” he informed. “You should proceed to the town without me. Someone else should also find the Shady Merchant in case there are more hints.”

Akiko quickly volunteered to return to the Shady Merchant. Sasha was more than happy to reunite with Zen’s party at the small village.

In no time at all, the group of four reunited, and Zen waved to Sasha when he spotted her in the sky.

“That was fast,” he commented. Those leathery dragon wings looked so cool! 

Sasha grinned. “I took the shortcut,” she shrugged. Unlike Oritha and her friends, she did not need to follow the winding path on the hills.

So far, Liu Feng had no luck locating any forest dwellers. Akiko was still only halfwa

    The marketplace was small. There were only five stalls in the area, and already, the shopkeepers were packing up. Splitting up with Oritha, Zen talked to the butcher to see if he had seen any lambs today.“Mary lost her kids? That’s unusual,” the butcher frowned. “It is usually Little Bo Peep who would lose them. Unlike Bo Peep’s well-trained lambs, who knew how to look for their forgetful owner, Mary’s lambs are considered pampered. They usually follow her everywhere she goes. How would they go missing?”Hearing more of the back story made Zen think this wasn’t a simple case of lost lambs. Unlike Bo Peep, Mary’s lambs seemed dependent on her. Something else must have happened. Unfortunately, that was all the butcher NPC knew. Zen thanked him and moved on to the next NPC, a cheesemonger.“Do you know what happened to Mary’s lambs?” he asked.The surly cheesemonger dressed in a white apron wit

    “You found them!” Mary gushed as Oritha let Snowball down at last.Unlike earlier, the white lamb was very docile in front of its owner. Zen could hardly believe this was the violent kid from earlier. Sasha and Damian were already making themselves comfortable in Mary’s home, playing with the other lambs in her front yard.Nuzzling into Mary’s palms, Snowball gave Zen a stinky side glance that quickly disappeared as soon as Mary told them dinner was ready. Trotting inside with a waggling tail, Snowball took the lead, and the other lambs followed it inside. Zen and Oritha followed them just as the sun disappeared in the distance.Inside, Mary’s cottage was as cosy as her personality. The steaming hot tray of food was set on the table, and Zen instantly recognised it by its smell.“Is that shepherd’s pie?” he asked with drool almost trickling down the side of his mouth. The smell alone was already enough to convince Z

    Ping!Checking the system notification after he had taken his first bite of the delicious lasagne shepherd’s pie, Zen noticed he had successfully learned Mary’s recipe. However, it was a unique item.===Unique Recipe: Mary’s Shepherd’s PieDescription: Warms the body, heart and soul from within. Full of Mary’s affection.*Special effects:Cold immunity for 6 hoursMental attack resistance for 2 hoursNostalgia effect (decreases fighting will by 50%)===Cold immunity for six hours? Even if it were measured in the in-game time, this was huge! The gamer remained motionless as he read on. The other effect was also decent against mental debuffs. However, the player who consumed this item must deal with a critical drawback. Zen was not someone keen on fighting enemies head-on. That 50% decrease in fighting will barely affected him. However, for the combatants, it could be a huge drawback. Logically spe

    The plan was simple. The one who boys would distract the black sheep owner when he went to the market for his morning grocery trip while the girls would sneak into his property to shear his sheep. Although they had no idea why the Shady Merchant wouldn’t obtain other types of wool, it was not unusual for the odd man to seek rarities that were difficult to procure.“If he refuses to comply, can I have permission to render him unconscious?” Damian asked, raising a very valid point. Shearing sheep might take some time, and there were only limited conversation cards they could use with a disgruntled and paranoid old shepherd.Although Zen was against the idea of harming the NPC, it was likely the most effective. However, most NPCs in the game were immune to attacks from players.“How do you intend to knock him out?” he asked.Sasha quickly offered some tips on how to knock out an old man immediately with a good neck slice.“Yo

    “We’re going to tail him now,” Damian whispered to Zen once the old shepherd left his house for his daily grocery trip. The man wore a brown hat that bore many harsh weathers. “Good luck!”Waving to the cheerful cyborg who had gotten the easier part of the deal, Zen wondered how they should avoid those women in the courtyard. According to Sasha, they were constantly hovering around the black sheep.“They might actually be lambs,” the blonde sniper commented after a while. “I don’t think sheep drink milk. They should be eating grass.”Swooping down from the roof silently, Sasha hugged Zen from behind and carried them both back onto the roof so he could observe the situation by himself. Zen blushed in embarrassment at how easily a girl carried him. Although he was in the body of a teenager now, he still remembered being a grown man in his previous life.When they finally got onto the roof, Zen immedi

  • Godfather World   Raiden the Attention Seeker

    Finding a villager who was willing to talk about the obnoxious Raiden was hard. Eventually, the only one willing to share more with the party was the shepherd, who also worked as a part-time barmaid — Bo Peep.“Hm? Raiden?” she twirled her hair with a flirtatious wink. “Buy me a drink, and I’ll tell you. Otherwise, I don’t kiss and tell.”The builder brothers did not lie. Bo Peep was very attractive with her heavy petticoat and skirt riding up her curvy thighs. However, none of the boys were particularly charmed by her. Many regular bar patrons glared at them with envy, but none of those men could compare to the muscles on Oritha’s forearm. Hence, they remained sullenly silent in a corner.To buy a drink, they had to spend one credit. Thanks to the daily quest, it was not a hefty fee to spare. Zen wanted to buy the NPC a drink, but his party members had other ideas.“I’ve seen enough gold diggers like yo

    Not wanting to admit it, Zen flopped onto the pasture spread eagle. He was too tired to think or talk or feel. However, Damian’s trash-talking skills were part of the reason they managed to arrive at their destination before sundown. Sasha scouted ahead and found a flock of sheep that belonged to a boy who seemed lonely. After confirming he was Raiden, they quickly met up with her.Ping!While Zen was still trying to refill the oxygen in his lungs, his party members had successfully completed the second main quest. They sheared the black sheep in Raiden’s flock and even offered help with the others.Happy to have company in a long while, Raiden smiled and talked for hours until it was evening. Then, as if reluctant to part with the company, he offered them a place to stay overnight.“It gets dangerous after dark,” he warned. “Why don’t all of you come with me and stay for the night?”Accepting his generous offer, the

    “Now?” Sasha’s jaw dropped in disbelief. “But it’s dark out!”Hooting with laughter, Oritha shrugged. “You have wings. As long as your legs don’t touch the ground and the wolves don’t grow twenty meters tall, you’ll reach the village safely. Besides, you fly faster than Zen runs. You could probably deliver it by daybreak.”Looking at Oritha with disbelief, Sasha narrowed her eyes.“When have you been good at English?”Glancing back from the oven, Zen noticed Damian slowly trying to duck under the table when Oritha grabbed him by the back of his shirt. Knowing them, it was likely Damian’s idea. Oritha was a quick learner whenever it came to non-academic studies.“I repeated what he said,” she dragged the flailing cyborg back up the table with a wide grin. “Maybe you should go now. We have round two of dinner to start.”…Maybe all the A

    While the other party members gathered the family members for a reunion, Zen and Liu Feng finally found Laura’s cottage after taking a wrong turn. Funnily enough, it was the Seer who pointed out how they had been going in a circle before Zen realised he had misinterpreted the map. Knocking on the cottage door, Zen waited with his sworn brother. From inside, he could hear someone coughing badly. “Who is it?” the cranky old lady hacked as she cracked open the door. Instead of seeing her sloppy son or nosy granddaughter, Laura saw a cute priest and a handsome, long-haired warrior. The new adventurers surprised her. Were they lost in the forest? “What do you want?” she asked briefly before launching into a new coughing fit. It was a particularly nasty cold that had persisted for a week now without any signs of recovery. Despite all the herbal medicine she made, Laura did not see any signs of improvement. Perhaps she was getting on in age. Smiling, Zen show

    It was a shame Zen was not with them. Sasha would have gone for a few more rounds, using the cowardly werewolf as a punching bag after Zen healed him. The more they dug information out from the pervert, the worse Sasha’s temper was. Damian did not stop her. The draconian needed somewhere to vent her anger, and it was best for it not to come his way. In truth, the cyborg felt a little sorry for Gabrielle, even if she were just a fictional character created for this virtual dungeon game. The cowardly cousin of the floor boss was no different from lowly thugs borrowing the influence of their powerful relatives to cause mayhem. Whimpering in fear and pain with his tail tucked in between his legs, the werewolf defect who could not transform into a human no matter the moon cycle kept a close eye on Sasha. Under the watch of the merciless draconian female, there was nowhere for him to run. He told them what they wanted to know and was alive for now. Given how tightly they w

    Using hand gestures, Sasha signalled the countdown and Damian prepared his stunning spells silently. They only had one chance to catch the secret admirer off guard. Whatever he was doing was disgusting enough. Han wasn’t lying about the obsession. The stalker werewolf was plucking flower petals and chanting Gabrielle’s name to see if she would love him back. Each time the flower petals ended on a no, he would crush the flower, stomp on it and pick a new one, confessing his disturbing love to her before plucking off the petals of a new flower.“Oh, Gabrielle! What sweet rosy cheeks you have, all the better for me to bite into them when they are ripe! They were pink when you were a babe. They were red when you had a fever. I wonder if they’d bleed if I bit them… would you cry in pain and fear? It makes me so excited to think about it! Just wait a little more, my angel. You’d soon be an adult, and we could finally be together!”Disgu

    As soon as Zen and Liu Feng departed, the remaining assassins pulled themselves together and got to work. Oritha opted to remain in the same room as the sleeping mother and daughter. However, Akiko went outside to share the information she learned last night about the stalker while patrolling the perimeter.“More brown hair?” Damian asked. “I could examine the cuticle to determine its genetic composition.”Handing the tuft of brown fur or hair over, Akiko also told Sasha the stalker’s route. Liu Feng only sensed the area where the unknown man was hiding last night. His lack of vision made him miss out on the obvious tracks. The stalker was not an expert. It must be how Han knew the foot size of Gabrielle’s secret admirer.Showing Sasha the tracks she found in the night, the Death Princess explained her hypothesis. The night hounds and wolves did not approach the house due to an invisible barrier.“It was as if they were t

    After listening to Gabrielle’s story about her encounter with the stalker, Zen realised how Mai was growling. Her wolf instincts were boiling with uncontrollable rage, even in her human hybrid form, when she recalled her daughter’s distress.Holding onto her mother’s hand, Gabrielle did her best to calm her mother down while the adventurers thought about her story. Zen found it strange that the silver walker did not attack this stalker who had been bothering them in their territory. He was not the only one who found the situation odd. Although many things in Gabrielle’s story match what Han informed them, they wonder why the mother and daughter did not seek any help from Han or live with Laura instead.According to the teenager, she saw a glimpse of a very hairy creature with thick fur-like hair covering the entirety of its arm, chest and even face. However, it was very late, and the curtain was in the way when she saw the stalker. Gabrielle could o

    Knocking on the door politely, Sasha waited for Zen to catch up to them. Apparently, the Seer had also sensed something off about the “safe zone”. The constant feeling of being watched made her unable to relax. There was nothing safe about this place.After a while, a beautiful teenager with curly matt gold locks opened the door. She bore no resemblance to Han. However, seeing a lady with wolf ears appear from behind her was more shocking. The lady with wolf ears shared the same forest-green eyes as the teenage girl. Zen knew at once they were mother and daughter.“Hello, who are you?” asked the timid girl.Smiling, Zen applied his priestly etiquette so as not to alarm the peaceful duo.“I’m Zen, a priest in an adventuring party. We were attacked by a large pack of wolves after sundown and managed to shake them off when we ran in this direction. By any chance, would you be kind enough to let us wait the night out?”N

    Mentally exhausted and depressed, Damian fell silent after the first hour. His knowledge of jokes was severely lacking. No matter what he did, the cyborg could not meet his party members’ standards. It was too difficult to be a clown.“It’s in the delivery,” Zen chuckled, patting Damian on the back. “Sometimes people find others funny when they aren’t intentionally trying to be. Just be yourself.”The solid advice lifted Damian’s mood a little, and the two nerds chatted, exchanging what they knew to update the gamer guide while travelling to Red Hood’s house.Before they knew it, it was dark. The forest was full of shadows, and everyone remained on their guard as the sound of howling wolves came from every direction. Zen stood in the middle of the party formation, as Akiko suggested, while Sasha took to the skies to scout. However, the dense canopy of leaves made it difficult to spot any wolves until they wer

    Coming from different directions, the party finally gathered at Han’s hut. Akiko and Liu Feng had already scouted the forest with the hunter’s help and memorised the paths to Red Hood’s house and the herbalist grandmother’s house. With all six members of the vanguard party present, even Han could not hold back his surprise at the party’s diversity.“Is this Red Hood’s uncle?” Zen asked when he arrived. Thanks to the squad’s merciless travel speed, he had to push his limits and gained two additional speed points.Studying the shortest kid in the lot who looked like he would not hurt a fly, Han wondered what he was doing in a party full of fierce fighters and psychopaths. The kid did not seem to wield any weapons and was dressed in a robe that resembled the clergyman. Could he be their healer?Introducing themselves briefly, Han confirmed that none of this party’s members were sane, not even the most innocent-l

    Travelling with Damian and Oritha at a more comfortable pace, Zen read the constant updates from Akiko. Han, the hunter, is quite an interesting character. If Zen had been there, he would have asked much more about the Silver Walkers. Yet, the information they uncovered was enough for Zen to understand the hidden pieces of this strange stage. The story writers were introducing players to new elements in preparation for future stages. Nothing was ever as it seemed. Even the Shady Merchant was no longer a reliable guide as he started to fade into a side character instead of a main pillar of the questing system.Targets and objectives were now self-defined, something Zen had never really experienced as a gamer. The idea was unique and mimicked the many roads a person could take in life. Perhaps this was part of the Godfather’s intentions. When a person was given free will, what would they choose to do with it? If everyone in the world were given all the paint they could poss
