From Player To Npc

Chapter 98: The day had arrived

The next day passed with more work as he learned some new things for his body.

Firstly, his never-ending sleep side effects were gone entirely, making him need longer breaks when pushed too much.

But his SP consumption got shortened, and the limits of his bodies got increased, making him work faster, but he had to be careful not to overdo it, or he would be in a weakening state until having some hours of rest.

He was able to finish the Earth Staff of his in the night of the first day and progressed on helping Mizuneko with his Spell Scrolls and Hineko with his Potion Making.

Hineko found the recipe for stronger MP regeneration potions. They usually needed to ground Water Mana Gems into dust to create them, but Hineko could use Zhen's Water Mana Gems as a replacement, although it would decrease the effects a bit but not too much.

He tried to find the same for HP and SP but no luck in that short of time.

He still made a few of his standard versions, but he focused on his new recipe for MP ones.

Shingi helped him by giving some tips he had read or talked with others about the progress of processing the materials needed.

He then focused with Mizuneko on creating Spell Scrolls and storing some useful spells in there.

From his side, he decided to make Scrolls with DOME OF SILENCE, INVISIBILITY, EARTH SPIKES, and his new Spell FEAR.

Mizuneko has one called ICE SPHERE, which trapped a target in a sphere of ice and TIDAL WAVE, creating a wave of water to push multiple targets as it was an Area Of Effect Spell.

Also had ICE SPIKE, which was working similar to EARTH SPIKES.

They decided to have both in case there was an opponent with special defense against one of the Elements.

Phoenix didn't have any Special Spells and still hadn't finished her SHADOW FORM, so that they couldn't make a Spell Scroll with it.

They made some with Shingi's LIGHT FORM, though, since this one was complete. But because it was a Master Grade Spell, they could make just four of them as it took them many tries to succeed for each.

On the night of the second day, Anna joined them to let them know that she had reports that a ship with the final batch of Blessed Ones was arriving, and they seemed like they were planning to get at the shop.

She wasn't sure of the Guild's plan, but they seemed to be ready for a battle as some of their top combat-related ones would be arriving.

Anna left to go back on keeping watch in case something changed.

Shingi and the rest had continued working like before, but they had to end close to midnight.

They had to rest; otherwise, they would be too tired tomorrow.

They had done enough preparations, and Zhen's Oozes could continue some.

But for now, Shingi gave each part of the potions and Spell Scrolls as he considered them to fit, and everyone returned to town.

The Players went to the Inn they were staying while Shingi went to the shop.

He also needed to rest as he overworked himself more than the rest, but he was confident of the final results.

He tried to create his TRANCE ROOM, but he got a notification from the System that it was in cooldown for five days.

He hadn't tried to use it since he woke up to his new body, and since it was a mental type of training, his body change shouldn't affect it.

'I guess since I got my class, my brain has changed a bit'[Shingi]

He had noticed the different feelings on his INT-based Skills, like his PERCEPTION, to make some deductions more straightforward and faster than before.

He couldn't do much, so he slept like normal, but there were no dreams of him being either in the misty white room or the dark room.

He woke up and was still early in the morning, but that didn't mean that they had much time as they could be here at any moment.

He told Greg yesterday not to come to work today, just in case.

So it was just him and Volig in the shop currently.

Volig had some breakfast of some berries and bread. Of course, he had some for Shingi too, which he shared.

"You shouldn't be around. Your crafting skills have improved, but your combat ones are almost nonexistent."[Shingi]

Shingi had accepted Volig as one of his students as a Scholar Master some time ago to see the Skills and the Ranks of them that Volig had.

"That never stopped me in the past. I told you that I would be by your side even if it is the death of me."[Volig]

"Well, you have died for me once already technically *chuckles*. But I am glad to have you by my side, my friend, but you should not put yourself in harm for no reason. You got a new life to live even if you took it for my sake; you need to live it for yours too."[Shingi]

Volig seemed surprised by the words of Shingi. It wasn't like he didn't care about him as he had helped him in some tough times, but it seemed like he was doing it mostly when involving a Quest of some short.

But now, his friend wasn't after a Quest. He was genuinely trying to change the world and destroy its parasites.

Volig had built new respect for him, not one of the people who have helped him to be what he is in the crafting community but as one he honestly considered to be his faithful friend.

After some hours passed, Shingi's senses detected something as he stood and headed towards the door.

He signaled Volig to stay behind until further notice.

He summoned his cloak, put on the special mask, and created the demon-like look he had before hunting the Player's some days ago.

He summoned his sword, which seemed to recognize him this time and seemed more receptive to work with him.

"'You mist user. Me no like mist. But strong one you are so will help a little.'"[Sinhunter]

He understood that he was talking about his new class and was interested in calling it as mist as this was how the mana Looked for him when detecting it.

For others, it had different forms, as Annoue saw it like different colored lights.

He also made some more illusions with his MAJOR ILLUSION Spell of his to further help his disguise.

He opened the doors and got outside the door as he saw almost four dozens of Players, with Master Whip in front of them leading them.

When they saw the figure exiting the shop, they all stopped as they recognized him from the descriptions of the ones that he killed.

Only a few have been able to respawn since then, as the rest were still waiting for the penalty to end.

"Oh, so you are here. As expected, you work this little filth."[Master Whip]

Master Whip turned towards one of the Players at his left, whose aura wasn't as tense as the rest, meaning he wasn't high level.

The rest seemed to have tenser auras from the Master Whip himself, meaning they were higher level, which wasn't unheard of as Guild Leader didn't always have time to level up quickly as they had to take care of Guild businesses.

The Player made some steps forward, and it was clear that he was terrified of being here at that moment but had no choice in the matter.

**We here to discuss a deal. We give double of what the young one have given you**[Low-Level Guild member]

Shingi was surprised that one of the speaking Demonic was a complex language to learn, and not many Players were interested in learning what a demon had to say. They were going to kill them no matter what they said.

**This is a price you can not afford.**[Shingi]

Since they considered him a demon, he was going to keep the act.

The Player translated what Shingi said to his Guild Leader, who seemed frustrated when hearing it.

"Tell him that we have access to more sources than the little brat. We can get into the Tower while the brat would only dream of being able to do so."[Master Whip]

Before he got the chance to translate any of that, a rock hit Master Whip directly in the left eye of his.

**No deal, mortals.**[Shingi]

He raised his hand as fifteen Golems appeared surrounding him and being reading to fight.

Only six of them were his as the rest were of Pan, who was hiding in the corner waiting for his signal to act.

He had a long way to go to get at her level of proficiency with the Spell.

He also enabled his Fear Spell as they were in range, and all the Golems charged toward them.

Whip Master and the low-level Player were affected by the Fear Spell as they fell to their feet, but the rest of the Players seemed unaffected.

It seemed like the difference of level played an essential role in the Spell's success rate, and he probably was lucky it worked on Master Whip.

The Players outnumbered the Golems, but that didn't mean they were at a disadvantage.

Shingi's Golems were all Defenders to keep the ones of Pan alive for as long as possible. Pan's Golems were all Attackers, of course.

Shingi was using his ROCK THROW to disturb any of the attacks he could.

But some of the Players have passed the Golems and started their charge at Shingi.

But a few were stopped on their way.

A few were frozen in place as some Spheres of Ice surrounded each of them, making them unable to move.

A dark hole appeared next to a few others, which was pulling them at its center.

Finally, some seemed to have slashes on them as blood started flowing from some wounds that appeared.

Then five figures appeared out of nowhere.

Two were just a step from Shingi and were Little Phoenix and Mizuneko with their new staves at the ready and still some mana leaking from their mana gems after their last cast.

In front of the Players who got slashed, Hineko, Wild Tycoon, and Anna, each with their weapons at the ready.

Hineko had his Fire Dagger at his left hand, for offense, and his Earth Dagger at his right, for defense.

Wild Tycoon had her two battleaxes separated, and her vest had changed as it had the image of a lion. She had raised her class a bit and was able to call new types of Spirits, and a lion among them was more suited for combat.

Anna had her longer needles at her hand, which she was using on any exposed area of her targets.

They had used the Invisibility Spell Scrolls to keep themselves unseen until now.

There were six that weren't affected by any of the attacks and continued their charge towards him as they were confident that everything would fall if they got him down.

Shingi walked between his two Mage students as he got his blade at the ready and fed it with Earth Mana of his, which would make it even sharper.

The range of his sword was shorter than their whip if he used it usually.

When Shingi was within their range and got ready to start their attack, they failed to detect the movements of Shingi's.

He slashed the air towards them, making AIR SLASH attack towards them, but without the use of any mana, just his speed as he cast HASTE on him too at that point.

Five of the players were pushed back by this attack as one could barely handle it and continue.

Mizuneko was ready to cast another of his ICE SPHERE to stop that individual but stopped when he noticed Shingi charging towards him.

Shingi recognized that individual; he was the Player called Cerberus.
