Chapter 79: A Cute Little Girl?

...

"Also, Mister! You were just lying when you said Aunt Soledad is dead, right?" Vonider thought that Pedro was just 'joking' around when he said that Madame Soledad passed away. Pedro answered Vonider's question with a forced smile.

"Let's go now Vonider!" The old noble approached Vonider as the King glanced one last time to Pedro who was heading towards his group.

'This young man! He reminds me of her... No wonder the Great Soledad took him as her apprentice.' The King turned around and started walking to the direction of the Naga Kingdom.

"Let's go!" The NPCs followed as they marched back to the Naga Kingdom. The players were still in confusion as to what happened.

Earlier, after the first few hours of the open beta launch, the developers updated the system and said that they system assistance in status effects were modified to make the game "an inch" closer to reality.

Hence, when a player was inflicted by Pedro's ~Emperor's Will~, they would instantly be unconscious without knowing what made them sleep. However, to poison, armor reduction, etc., their effects can be seen above their hp bars. The duration, damage dealt per second, or other values like how much armor was reducted were the only one indicated above the hp bar. What type of skill used, or such other information was removed.

This was a similar feature added in Pedro's past life after the game has been officially released after two months.

...

"What happened?"

"Where are the NPCs going?"

"Was it done by that NPC?"

The players were dazed as they stare in the departing figure of the King of Naga Kingdom. They did not even notice Faunia who was left standing right in front of them.

'Faunia, you may start!' Pedro smirked as his boat was near where his group was located.

...

Earlier...

'Faunia, when these people from the Naga Kingdom leaves, Kill everyone else and take all their bags!' Pedro wore a mischievous smile when he looked to Faunia.

'Why, should I, A Goddess, do such evil act for you?' Faunia frowned as she was being turned by Pedro into a thief and a murderer.

'In the wild, Predator hunts their prey! In this case, they were our prey!'

'I didn't know you were into cannibalism?'

'I am not!'

'Then, why?'

'Didn't I tell you to get the bags! How many, Ingredients was I able to store in my bag? Too many, right?'

'Human... do you mean...'

'Yes! Many bags, many ingredients, many foods that we can cook!' Pedro chuckled as he 'manipulated' Faunia using food.

'I'm in! Should I start?' Faunia licked her lips as she stares to the players with a mischievous smile.

'I said later! I'll just give you a sign when to start!' Pedro shooked his head as Vonider chased after him.

...

"Oh... a little girl!"

"Were you left by them?"

"We'll escort you to the Kingdom!"

The players wore mischievous smiles as they thought that Faunia was with the Naga Kingdom NPCs. They thought to take advantage of Faunia to become the first players to enter a kingdom and gain quests, rewards and other benefits.

"Uhm... I hope you can help me with my trouble."

"Aww... Of course, little girl."

Faunia made a cute look like an innocent girl that was lost from her parents. This made the players relaxed and drop their guard towards Faunia. Speaking made a delay and caused the figure of those from the Naga Kingdom to fade.

"Uhm... but I am hungry! I need food first!"

The players were happy. They felt like they were having a quest. Although there was no prompt of the system that they received a quest, no players knew how the 'quest' system prompt works at the moment. Hence, they can only assume that quests were given when an "NPC" made a request.

"Would this be fine, little girl?" A player quick-witted gave Faunia a piece of bread.

"It is fine~" Faunia smirked as she stabbed her hands straight to the player's heart.

-???????

[You have died! Character deletion and automatic logout in 3!]

2!

1!

...

"Noooooooooo!" The player, fortunately, didn't feel any pain. He screamed on the top of his lungs as his vision grayed.

Pffffff!

Blood burst out from the body of the player as Faunia's hands pierced through it and her hand can be seen in the back of the player, that was holding the player's heart. The other players were shocked in place as they stare to Faunia and her pierced hands into the player's character.

"One down!" Faunia wore a mischievous smile as the blood that spurted on her made her resemble a serial killer. Faunia pulled her hand as she took a bite to the heart in her hands.

Nom! Nom! Nom!

Gulp!

"Fresh and healthy human heart! How I missed this taste!" Faunia finished the whole raw heart as the other players got back into their senses.

"Ah... RUN!"

"MONSTER!"

"RUN!"

...

...

Players tried to escape in different directions. However, Faunia is way too fast. In less than twenty seconds, all players lay dead with a hole in their chest. Some even tried to record the scene to no avail. They were killed before they can record it.

As Faunia ate the last heart, Pedro was able to send the last batch of his group (the Main Crew) to the ship.

'You're done?'

'Yes! I'll leave the gathering of bags to you, Human!'

'Ok! Don't drop your guard, someone might be lurking around. Don't hesitate to kill anyone who poses a threat to us. Also, Kill those who watch or observe us. No need to hold back.'

'Then...' Faunia picked a seashell and faced towards a row of trees, into the forest.

Boom!

Faunia threw the seashell like a baseball player. It made a hole through the trees until something was hit and burst blood. A human body, with a similar bag to players, dropped headless into the bush.

"Aww! There are only a few shells left!" Faunia looked troubled as she only saw a few seashells around her.

"Here, use these!" Pedro took out rocks from his bag and gave it to Faunia.

"Yey!" Faunia became delighted as she started 'pitching' the stones everywhere. Every stone hit something that burst blood. (Note that they were players in the forest and has no perception capability to notice what is happening in the shore. It's just that, Faunia's perception was too high that she can notice someone even in kilometers away. Hence, although those players didn't do anything to them, Anyone within a kilometer radius (Except Naga Kingdom) is a threat.)
