[VRMMO] Chaos Doctor

"You fuking dwarf!"

The man suddenly punched a black bearded dwarf in the stomach.

"…"

"Really?"

"My mom punches way harder than you." – said the black beard dwarf.

[The renown craftsman of many masterpieces that lives Dusk city – Evilin]

In front of the unknown man was the legendary blacksmith of the Dusk city called Evilin who was chained around his waist.

The man hair was short, but his black beard was long.

"Shut up!" – shouted the man.

"You better- '

"I better what?"

"What will you do necromancer?"

"Kill me and raise me as undead? Ha! You wish."

"You need me alive and turning me into undead will only destroy your plans."

"Oh. And you don't want to hurt me if you want me to make you stuff."

"All you can do is to chain me up here and can't even really hurt me or torture me."

"So common. Hurt me. You will be the real one in trouble."

"Do you really think I haven't dealt with assholes like you in the past?"

"…"

The man walked out of the room before shutting the reinforced door shut and completely turning the room dark.

"Fuck!" – said the man before punching the cave wall.

(That fuking over arrogant bitch!)

(And the most annoying part about it is that he is absolutely correct.)

(I cannot kill him or damage him in order to have him create "That".)

(This is so-)

"?!"

(What was that noise?)

(….)

(!)

(Again!)

(Are the undead fighting? Did they encounter wild monster that fallowed us?)

(Or by any chance the pursuers somehow managed to find me already?)

(…)

(No. This is impossible.)

(But its better if I deal with it since less mess will make this place less suspicious.)

[Meanwhile – Phantasia.]

"…."

(Okay. That was last of the undeads.) – though Phantasia after finish off the skeleton.

(Damn. The undeads here are no joke at all.)

(3 are manageable, but 4?! Fuck my life! And some of them are bit stronger than others.)

(If I encounter big group that also has those stronger skeletons, I will have no choice but to bring out chimeras at this rate.)

(…. Still… This place isn't a cave?)

(This place clearly look manmade.)

(There are traces of the work being done.)

(Was this place originally a mine?)

(But it doesn't look like it wasn't used for a long time nor I see any tools.)

(Was it abandoned? It doesn't look like it was even used for long anything.)

(Or did the necromancer made this place just like he made the tunnel?)

(It could be either possibilities and-)

"!"

"Stop."

Phantasia ordered his monsters to stop after hearing coming from the distance.

"…."

(Em…. I know its skeletons again…. But isn't this…. Too many footsteps?!)

Phantasia prepared his crossbow alongside his monsters, realizing that the fight could happened at any moment.

And Phantasia was right to worry.

A huge group of the armor wearing skeletons appeared, including some of the stronger undeads in the mix.

But this wasn't all.

Among the group there was a person who was carrying and staff and had his face covered with hood.

"…."

(Damn!)

(This wasn't planned!)

(I though this would be some sort of dungeon where the finally boss is at the end.)

(But why the fuck the necromancer came to me instead?!)

(This isn't good at all or anything!)

(But is that necromancer anyway? What if there was more than 1 kidnapper?)

(No. This isn't the point.)

(I can take them on like this.)

(I have to use chimeras.)

"Who the fuck are you?" – said the hooded figure.

"…."

"I asked who the fuck are you?"

"…."

"Heh."

"Welp, I guess my job is done." – said the hooded figure.

"?"

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Who the fuck are you?!"

"Who knows."

"Maybe a person that find out that you used the sewers system as your escape route as well as used to connect your tunnel to the outside world."

"You should have fuking made better job of covering up your tracks as well as the fact that you straight up left brand new wall as well as bunch of dirt in the sewers."

"Did you really think that nobody would notice that?"

"…"

The man tabbed the ground with his staff and the undead began slowly walking to Phantasia.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you." – said Phantasia.

"Since you don't want to get exposed, don't you?"

"…"

"Stop." – said the hooded man, stopping his undeads.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Well. What do you think?"

"…."

(Is he bluffing?)

(Or by any chance he isn't alone…. Wait.)

(He is one of those outworlders, isn't he?)

(I heard they are banished after death, but they can resurrect later on. This is first time I encounter one of them.)

"…"

(Shit.) – though both the man and Phantasia.

(Is he really not alone? Even if he isn't then he will still tell people about me.)

(Yeb. This guy is necromancer…. But if he can control that many undeads that are also this strong means that he isn't weakling.) – though Phantasia.

(Dying won't benefit me at all, since he may use the window between my death ban to run away.)

(I want to rescue the dwarf, but if I die here, I can still resurrect and inform authorities, so at least I will get some money.)

(I heard it takes some time for them to resurrect, so its not like they instantly come back…. But he will expose me and people will know the area where I was hiding in.) – though the necromancer.

(I though the wild monsters would have destroyed the tracks already as well. I get the tunnel since I made the fake walls in the rush, but how did he catched up to me? Did he discovered my path from the get go and fallowed while I was moving the dwarf?)

"…."

"You do realize I will have to kill you no matter what, right?" – said the necromancer.

"True. True."

"But you also seem to realize that you will be fucked if you do that."

"Since considering the fact that you want to kill me confirms that the dwarf is inside."

"…."

"You want something, don't you?" – said the necromancer.

"There is no way you would come here alone if you came with somebody."

"…."

"Is the dwarf anybody nearby? Can he heard what we will be talking about?" – asked Phantasia.

"…."

"No."

"Good."

"Well then, how about a deal?"

"Give me the dwarf back and I won't tell anybody about you."

"…. How dumb do you think I'm?" – said annoyed necromancer.

"Well, you need the dwarf alive, don't you? There could be two reasons why you kidnapped the legendary blacksmith of that city."

"To either sell him or to have him make something for you."

"But you need him alive for that."

"However, you have been discovered already by me and soon by the entire city."

"But…. Something is off, isn't it?"

"!"

(NICE!)

(There was reaction. I was bluffing right now, but it seems he really have a problem.)

(By any chance he cannot force the dwarf to make him stuff?)

(….)

(Hm…. What I should do with that information.)

(I don't want money from giving the information about the dwarf. I want to be the one who rescue him.)

"…."

"Then how about this? Let me just take off this fake mask I'm wearing and let me show my real self to you."

"?"

Phantasia swapped his entire equipment, including his mask for the "Doctor" equipment.

"Greetings."

"I'm but a humble researched called "Doctor". Pleasure to make your acquiescence."

"…." – the necromancer stared complexed at the "Doctor"

"Huh… I though you would have heard about me or something since I did destroyed few settlements and committed some mass genocide and all." – said Phantasia.

"I guess I'm not that famous yet."

"Honestly, I was planning on killing you while pretending to be the guy called the "Wood Mask", but I decided to change my plan."

"…."

"What the fuck do you want?" – said the necromancer while getting ready to fight.

"Well… The current situation seem…. More favorable to me than I originally though."

"But I know you won't give me the dwarf at all."

"However, you need the dwarf yourself, don't you?"

"So, how about this?"

"You help me out and you give me the dwarf."

"…."

"And how the hell you would help me out?"

"Dunno."

"But you are currently at my mercy."

"Even if you somehow kill me and escape, you will be hunted down and your plans would get ruined."

"But you can kill the dwarf and destroy my plans and I cannot have that, can't I?"

"So, that is where the deal comes in."

"I know you have stolen all of his special tools and everything, meaning that the option of you having him being forced to make something is more highly likely."

"But there is one thing I don't get."

"Why are you panicking so much?"

"Let me guess. You can't make him craft the stuff you want, don't you?"

"But me?"

"Just let me do it for you and I will make him "Obedient" for you."

"And trust me. I have ways to force people in quiet nasty way."

"So, how about it?"

"Will you trust this bastard? Or have all of your plans be ruined instead?"

"Chose wisely."
