[VRMMO] Dead One

[Current location: Third prince private mansion.]

"Did you send the assassins?" – asked the third prince.

"Yea, they are already on their way to get rid bribed guards and other people that could possible betray us in order to save their own skins." – said the middle aged man as he drank some tea.

"Stil, the emperor had discovered us way too early than we had anticipated…. Its not good."

"We don't have enough "Materials"."

"Yea, and to make things worse my father, the emperor, he is dying." – said the prince as he began drinking an bottle of wine.

"!"

"What happened?" – said the middle aged man.

"Heart attack." – said the third prince after stopping drinking for moment.

"He lived, but his current health state is kept in secret, but there is really no use hiding it."

"He will soon die and could probably even die tomorrow."

"…."

"But we are not ready yet." – said the middle aged man.

"I know… And that is the problem." – said annoyed third prince.

"Bocuse of what that old fart said, the people are now paying attention to the fake Purple Hyena guild we made up and if they discover anything, then both you and I will be not only discovered but also hunted down."

"But now we have bigger problem of securing the materials."

"Yes. That is indeed problematic situation." – said the middle aged man.

"The emperor maybe be dying, but the words he said just now will make things problematic for us to move around in secret now and anything more he says will carry weight behind it."

"That guy is not to be understated."

"…."

"Can't we do anything regarding the "Material" issue?" – asked prince.

"Sorry, but we won't be able to." – said the middle aged man.

"We could probably snatch people if there was some chaos going on, for example the real Purple Hyena making move, but the problem is that they went silent for way too long and we don't know where or when they could possible appear."

"Or we can wait until some of the other factions do something stupid or the emperor himself finally bites the dust."

"But right now, making even slightest move could destroy us all."

"We need even the smallest chaos possible for us to do anything."

"…."

"Fuck me…." – said the third prince.

[Meanwhile: First princess mansion.]

"I see…. Well, that definitely makes things complicated." – said the first princess Elizabeth while holding some documents in her hand.

"So…. You my brother Simon is possible the person behind it all?"

"Yes. That is very likely." – said the maid with glasses.

"We don't have any solid evidence, but there were some suspicious movement among his faction around the time the attacks had happened and out of all of the factions, his faction was only doing that."

"However, this is just an theory and it may be wrong."

"…. No. This is good." – said the princess.

"Honestly, Simon is a bit of scumbag that doesn't care about life of a person, so having him do some illegal and nasty stuff behind everybody back does make sense."

"However, so does my other brothers."

"They talk while smiling, but these bastards are nothing more than scheming and cruel bastards."

"So honestly, I suspect all 3 factions, since all of them would gain some benefits from it all and it would also harm my reputation since I'm focused on making "Friends" outside the empire."

"But all of the three factions, I'm suspecting Simon the most and I have many good reasons why."

"Continue observing his faction and watch out for anything weird."

"You can use assassins if necessary. I need informations what is that bastard scheming."

While the third prince and the first princess were scheming something behind the scenes, so were the first and second princes factions.

For example, in the first prince mansion was held an meeting between the prince and the guild master of the Red Lions, Conquest.

"You want us to stop looking for the Purple Hyena?!" – asked confused Conquest.

"Yea. The situation changed." – said the first prince.

"We still have 0 clue where they could be possible hiding and the Oin empire itself is massive."

"How much time and how much resources we would need to spend to look in every dark corner of the empire."

"Not only that, but we need prepare ourselves for possible upcoming battle."

"!"

(Did he said battle?! Does he plans to take over empire by force?) – though shocked Conquest.

"That's it." – said the prince.

"Just focus on growing stronger or growing in numbers. Just be useful when the time comes."

"…."

Conquest left the prince office room before then leaving the mansion.

"…."

(ARE YOU FUKING KIDDING ME?!)

(Stop looking for them?! After that fuking humiliation at the First Tournament event?! And the fact that we were never able to catch them even once, he now tells us to "Fuck off"?!)

(Is he disappointed in us?!)

"…."

(No…. Something different is approaching…... BUT STILL!)

(I will fuking wreck that entire fuking Purple Hyena guild and fuking murder them all!)

(Especially that bastard GreyHunt!)

(He fuking turned me into laughing stock as if I was nothing!)

(I'M RANKER FOR FUCK SAKE!)

(I'M THE FUKING CONQUEST THE "UNDYING LION"! AND THAT FUCKER JUST HUMILATED ME AS IF I WAS JUST SOME YOUR AVERAGE PLAYER!)

(I'M GOING TO FUKING FIND HIM AND ONCE I DO, I WILL FUKING MAKE HIM REGREAT EVER MAKING ENEMY OUT OF ME!)

"…."

(There is also that bastard Hawk…. According to the spies placed in his guild, he is doing some sort of high ranking quest with rank of A if not S…..Or maybe even SS.)

(He have been apparently doing that quest for long time and he keeps all details in secret, and I can't really use the spies to look further into it or they will get exposed.)

(….)

(I need to get stronger.)

(I need more fuking power!)

(By any fuking means necessary!)

(To crush that fucker Hawk and that bastard GreyHunt as well as any other bastards that would stand in my way.)

(I WILL FUKING CRUSH THEM ALL AND TRAMPLE ON THEM LIKE THE TRASHES THEY ARE!)

Even though a lot of time had passed, Conquest have not gave up one bit on his revenge against the vice guild master of the Purple Hyena guild, GreyHunt and was already planning his next move.

However, he wasn't the only ones doing stuff. The Scarlet Gryphons led by the Hawk was also recruiting new members while also strengthening their already existing members.

And the reason why they are doing that is very obvious. They are also preparing for the possible war.

The clock is ticking.

Once the emperor dies, the chaos will erupt through the entire empire.

But the question now remains.

Will the one of the hers faction spark the chaos? Or will it be the Purple Hyena guild who had went silent for moths already without even giving an single sight of life and somehow now appears, brining an total chaos?

Speaking of the Purple Hyena guild, they were currently on their next move right now.

The conquest of the Forgotten Fragment dungeon.

"So, how is the situation? Are everybody ready?" – asked GreyHunt.

"Yep." – replied Blueberry.

"Each member have an new special made armor made out of Amadeus body parts as well as brand new weapons." – said Blueberry as the core members of the Purple Hyena guild were wearing and black scaled and feathered armors alongside Ampi and Lil who were also wearing an brand new equipment with the similar appearance to the equipment that the core members were wearing.

"Each armor and weapons have been costume made for each of the members to maxims specific aspect they were looking for."

"The potions, buff scrolls, buff meals and other stuff are also ready and packed."

"Anything? Are we missing anything?" – asked ClownFrog while in his true form.

"…. Nope. We checked everything." – said Blueberry who though for moment before giving an answer.

"We are good to go."

"Good." – said ClownFrog.

"Then we should get going already."

"Wretch. Tail." – said ClownFrog as he turned around and faced the orc and kobold players.

"You know what to do if something happens and you need us urgently back in the base, got it?"

"Yea, yea. Don't worry." – said Wretch with carefree attitude.

"We will make sure that we will only call you if we would really be getting fucked or something."

"Good." – said ClownFrog.

"YOU FUCKERS! WE ARE MOVING OUT!" - shouted ClownFrog to the members of the expedition team.

"You know the goal, right?" – said ClownFrog.

"Our goal is the extermination of the Forgotten Fragment dungeon."

"Simple goal, but it can get extremely chaotic and complicated depending on what sort of Forgotten Fragment dungeon we are dealing with."

(Honestly, I'm quite nervous right now.) – though ClownFrog.

(That dungeon is an active dungeon, inside the deeper parts of this great danger zone where there are countless monsters there that could be extremely problematic.)

(But they are straight up scared of that dungeon…. Meaning that something big maybe inside that dungeon.)

(Something maybe on par with Amadeus or something even worse.)

(We had observed the area around the dungeon, but there was no changes what so ever…. But who says that the dungeon won't go berserk? This is an chaotic mess called Forgotten Fragment dungeon we are talking about here.)

(That thing could possibly set off on its own without us doing anything to it.)

(So really, we have no choice by to get rid of that dungeon ASAP before something extremely bad happens.)

"Let's move out boys and girls." – said ClownFrog.

"The sooner we get rid of that dungeon the better."
