[VRMMO] Dead One

[Stone city – Knights training grounds.]

"…"

"You want to summon a demon?" – asked Blueberry.

"Yea." – said ClownFrog.

"My specialization is having an army of monsters."

"So I want as many classes as possible that can summon monsters."

"Necromancer is one of the classes that specializes in summoning as many monsters as possible and I have multiple necromancer classes. But I want more if I want to have even bigger army!"

"The demon summoner was one of the more interesting choice I could make and I even researched about it before I even picked the dark priest. So if I'm correct, everything should turn out great."

"By the way, what are you doing here? Didn't you said that you wanted to do one of your experiments?" – asked ClownFrog.

"Oh… Yea… About that… I kind of didn't had any good ideas or anything. So, I was looking around, thinking if I could get some sort of inspiration." – said Blueberry.

"Then I kind of saw you and got curios what you were doing."

"Oh. I see." – said ClownFrog.

(…)

(Y-yea…. I can't freaking tell him…) – though Blueberry.

(At first, I thought that he would be a cruel bastard when he said he wanted to be the villain…. But he cares about us.)

(Not only, he is an excellent leader.)

(There is also a fact that he is the "Road".)

(Honestly, I would have never expected that he and ClownFrog are the same person! Their personalities and they playstyles are completely different…. I was his old fan, since I was also a played [Evolution Ragnarök] and was a support player like him. I enjoyed watching his streams and all.)

(Honestly, I didn't believed the news about him selling out his team for money, but I didn't know if it wasn't truth as well until I heard the whole story from him.)

(Honestly, I even started enjoying playing as a villain and all. I'm having fun. Being evil is more fun than I though.)

(Not only that, but I can also play together with my childhood friend and I'm part of the guild where the trust among us all is so strong, so nobody would even dare to betray us.)

(How did he do that?! He not only managed to created an guild of villains, but also managed to recruit a trust worthy people and even command them like a real leader.)

(He is strong and smart. He is kind and yet dangerous.)

(Honestly saying… I think I'm getting interested in ClownFrog?)

"…Blueberry?"

"A-ah?! Yes?!"

"Are you okay? Are you tried or something? You were spacing out."

"N-no! I'm fine." – said Blueberry.

"A-anyway, I'm quiet curios about something."

"How does demon summoning works exactly?"

"Oh, well its bit complicated."

[Demon Summoner] posses skill called [Summon Demon].

Demons are divided into categories and types.

The demons ranking is like this.

-Lesser.

-Lesser-Low

-Low

-Low-Mid.

-Mid.

-Mid-High.

-High.

-High-Greater.

-Greater.

-Noble.

-Royal.

Each rank posses a huge difference in power.

The rank like lesser-low is a rank between the lesser and low ranks. However, the demon isn't a low rank demon.

The difference in power between lesser and low is quite big, the same goes to low and mid, mid and high, high and greeter.

There are also noble and royal ranks, but they the leagues on their own

When it comes to the demon summoning you need two things.

The first thing is a sacrifice.

The most common one would be the user mana, however there are some items that can help in summoning higher ranking demons. For example, a sacrifice item.

The other important thing is the user extra stat called [Demonic Power].

Pretty much, the [Demonic Power] in this case will play a role similar to the [Necro Mastery] and [Taming Mastery].

The higher the [Demonic Power] is, the number of demons you can control and summon will change. You can also summon stronger demons depending on your [Demonic Power].

(Those are the basic knowledge about the demon summoning.)

(Honestly, the reason why I learned demonic priest class was so I could get my hands on the demon summoner.)

(Demons do not require me to use the necro mastery points.)

(The reason why I put more than 1000 stat points into that thing was so I could summon demons and increased the number of my soldiers.)

(But what should I summon?)

(Should I summon a lot of weak monsters? Or just strong demons instead?)

(…)

(Let's go with strong ones.)

(Most of my undeads are weaklings and their main strength is their number.)

(I do have some powerful undeads, like golems, O'a and slave master. But I need more.)

"I will start the summoning."

"[Summon Demon: Ritual]."

[Please chose the amount of mana and demonic power used.]

"Hm…"

"Lets go with 100% of demonic power and deactivate the mana usage limit."

After setting options, a magic circle appeared on the ground.

(With my current demonic power, I should be able to summon at least low ranking demon or maybe mid rank one.)

The demonic magic circle began glowing brighter while also growing in size.

(Oh? I know about this. Apparently, the summoning circle will change shape when the higher ranking demon is being summoned.)

The magic circle began glowing even brighter while also growing in size again.

Moments later, the magic circle had finally activated and the demonic summoning has finally commences.

The demonic energy began leaking from the magic circle before the attaching itself together and forming a cocoon.

Moments later, the demonic cocoon broke down and a demon appeared.

[Hell Soldier]

[Rank: Low Demon]

The demon appearance was as fallow:

A demon was stood 2 meters tall.

The demon body was skinny and it was wearing an armor while also carrying an sword.

The demon had also a pair of two dark horns sticking out from its head.

"…"

"Are you the one who summoned me?" – asked the demon.

"Yea. I'm ClownFrog. I'm a guy that had summoned you."

(A low rank demon, huh? Not a bad start, but I wasn't really expecting to really get low rank demon on my first try.)

(But here comes the hard part.)

(Some demons wants something like an item or something while some wants to test out the strength of their summoner.)

(But I should be able to deal with him!)

"…"

"You… You are emitting a scent of sloth?" – said the demon.

"?"

"Sloth?"

"!"

"Wait!"

[The One Noticed By The True Sin Of Sloth]

(Does he means this?)

(I completely forgot about this! I wanted to ask the queen about since she maybe had some information, but… That demon can tell that I have this title? Maybe he knows something.)

"I don't know what are you talking about, but… I was once noticed by something or someone called the true sin of sloth."

"!"

"Are you for real?" – asked the demon.

"Yea… But I don't know what or who that is."

"…."

"Hm…Fine."

"I wanted to see how strong you were, but I changed my mind."

"Give me 1 barrels of alcohol of any type and I will accept you as my master."

"?!"

(Wait what?!)

[Person quest has been generated.]

[Give the demon 1 barrels of alcohol.]

[Reward: Hell Soldier will swear his loyalty to you.]

(What the hell is going on?)

(Getting barrels of alcohol isn't that hard or anything, if anything, we should have some in city.)

(The quest he gave is an extremely easy one! Even a completely newbie player would complete it without any problem!)

(Is this the effect of [The One Noticed By The True Sin Of Sloth]?)

"…Fine. It shouldn't take long. I will be right back." – said ClownFrog.

ClownFrog left the training grounds, leaving behind the demon and the Blueberry alone.

"…"

"Em… Hi?" – said the demon.

"Em…Hi?" – replied awkwardly Blueberry.

After some time passed, ClownFrog returned back to the training grounds with his undeads that were carrying the barrels full of beer and wine.

"I don't know with one you liked, so I brough a wine and beer barrels. Chose what you like." – said ClownFrog.

"Hm… I will take the beer ones." – said the demon.

[Personal quest has been completed.]

[Hell Soldier has pledged his loyalty to you.]

[Hell Soldier has become your familiar.]

[You are now able to summon the Hell Soldier .]

[The demon has been registered in [Demonic Page] skill.]

"…"

"Say, I have question." – said ClownFrog.

"Hm? What is it?" – asked the demon while opening the barrel of beer.

"Why did you chose to serv me for alcohol?"

"Just so you know, I'm quite powerful and I should be able to beat you and you even said that you wanted to fight me."

"But you chose not to fight me after finding out I was noticed by that true sin of sloth."

"What is going on?"

"Who is that true sin of sloth?"

"…"

"Huh. You really don't know." – said the demon after drinking some beer from the barrel.

"Well, we made the contract anyway, so I should explain."

"There are demons, monsters, people, demons lords or gods that may represent seven deadly sins."

"Pride greed lust envy gluttony wrath and sloth."

"However, the true sins are the meaning of the sin itself."

"They are the sin itself."

"They posses the highest level possible of the sin out there."

"There are seven true sins in existence and each one of them are known as the demonic gods."

"However, they are not like any other gods or gods that are demons."

"Their power is so overwhelming, that they cannot exist in this world even if they wanted to."

"They don't even exist in demonic world."

"They can exist only in their own realm."

"However, they are bored since they are stuck in their own realms."

"So, they spread their power and blessing to some and make them bear the mark of the sins."

"Some beings that possess their mark had sometimes ended up being the demon lord of sin like demon lord of lust or demon lord of envy."

"However, that doesn't mean they are loyal to the true sin."

"Truth to be told, they want entertainment, so they give the power of the sin to some beings and watch them live their life. However some beings decided to be loyal to the true sins and see them as their gods."

"Sometimes the beings are able to develop to develop the power of the sin by themselves, without even being helped or noticed by the true sin but sometimes the true sins may lay their eyes on someone and increase their affinity with the sin, it's your case for example. The true sin gave you its scent in order to increase your affinity with sin of sloth."

"Most of the times, the ones who bears the power of the deadly sin are demons, but sometimes the true sins will offer the power of the sin to some other beings."

"And you are one of those beings."

"Many people consider this as an mark of power while some take it as symbol pride."

"However, these people had only been noticed and they need to get closer to the sin if they want to get the power of the sin."

"However, there are beings that do not want to have anything to do with the sins and they cleanse themselves from it or ignore it."

"However, you didn't cleansed your self by the look of things and if anything, the power of the sin of sloth is developing in you."

"If the true sin of sloth has noticed you and gave you his scent, then that means you may become somebody interesting in the future."

"Obviously, working for somebody like you who may become some big shot in the future may have some benefits, so I decided to work with you willingly."

"…"

"Wow….That is a lot..." – said ClownFrog.

(So, the true sins are something like beings above the gods?!)

(I maybe had encounter something way bigger than I thought!)

(But… Some people cleanse themselves from those sins?)

(Is there an down side from having the power of the sin or being noticed by the true sin?!)

(But, there are obviously some benefits.)

(This demon decided to work with me from his own free will because he noticed the scent of sloth?!)

(…)

(I'm not getting rid of it.)

(I'm planning on using the demons and add them to my army.)

(I need the power of the sin to make the demons more willing to work for me.)

(I don't know who you are true sin of sloth, but I'm grateful to you!)

(You want to observe me and have some fun? Good!)

(I hope you will enjoy seeing me destroy this entire freaking Adernul kingdom and turning their citizens into undead slaves!)
