MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 205: Successful Quest



The witch doctor approached the door, her steps hesitant as she reached out to open the door. "What're you doing?" Henry whispered in anger.

Without answering to him, she opened the door and had to raise her gaze to meet the eyes of the young man waiting outside.

"May I help you?" She asked, but she couldn't hide her trembling voice.

"I am here to talk with your patient." Adam said with an amiable smile. "He is expecting me."

The witch doctor didn't oppose it and stepped aside, not daring to meet the betrayed eyes of Henry. The witch doctor knew that he had lost Henry's trust forever, but she knew that he was on the losing end of this conflict.

Adam stepped into the hut and saw pale-faced Henry sitting on the bed it didn't look like he was under the effects of the poison anymore as he couldn't find any traces of it left in his body. "So, you've been chasing me?" Henry pulled out a couple of hidden knives behind his back. "I suppose bitch Shura and mercenaries finally got tired of me. I am honored."

"Why don't you come with me?" Adam asked. "You're just a thief; you won't be sent to Black Keep, but you'll spend a couple of months in Ebonreach's jail."

"Haha, that doesn't fit with me." Henry said with a grin. "I don't like giving those Justice Lords any satisfaction of my capture."

"You're just a small fry." Adam said. "A skilled small fry, but small fry nonetheless. If you plead guilty, you'll be in jail for two months, and if you desire so, you can return to your thieving ways; I don't care."

"Nah, two months is too much!" Henry shouted.

"It really isn't." Adam said. "After all, you don't have to be inside the game to fulfill the sentence. You can just spend those two months back in the real world. It's very light punishment."

"But I would have to give back my hard-earned money, which I'll refuse to do!" Henry screamed. "I worked hard for that money, and I'm not giving it back!"

"Henry, listen to him!" The witch doctor shouted. "You'll punishment will be much harsher if you fight back!"

"You should listen to her," Adam said.

"Shut up, traitor!" Henry snapped. "How much are you getting from the quest, either way? I'll pay you double!"

"I am not doing this quest for money." Adam said. "And I don't like the reputation of someone who fails quests. After all, reputation is the most important thing in mercenary circles."

"Fucking mercenary trash. I always hated how self-righteous you bastards are!" Henry had enough, and with flicks of his wrists, he threw his hidden knives at Adam.

Adam, with a single slash of his sword, smacked the knives out of the air.

Without staying behind to fight, Henry jumped out of the window, soared across the street below and smashed through another window of the building on the other side.

He looked around with a smirk, but to his shock, the young man jumped after him and tackled him to the ground.

"You were asking for it." Adam raised his fist and smashed it down at Henry's face.

Before it could land, Henry rolled out of the way, kicked his legs up, and pushed Adam a step back.

Then Henry jumped away from Adam and threw another round of knives, sharp and small- bladed.

Adam, with the blunt side of his sword, smacked the knives out of the air and jumped after Henry with a long lunge.

"Smoke bombs!" Henry pulled out several smoke bombs from his inventory and threw them to the ground.

As soon as they exploded against the floorboard of the narrow hallway, the room was engulfed in a thick cloud of smoke.

Adam slashed through the smoke cloud but landed on nothing.

After his swing finished, he sensed an aura above him using his Kiryoku, and when he raised his gaze, he saw Henry clinging to the ceiling with his knife stuck into the wood.

Henry stomped his foot down, but Adam caught his feet and smashed him into the floor, knocking all the air out of him.

He then smashed Henry to the wall of the hallway, shattering some of the drywall, and then tossed him against another wall.

This time, Henry flew right through the wall and landed on the floor of a room.

"Kyaa!"

There was a couple embracing in bed who screamed in terror as Henry crashed into their

room.

"Fucker!" Henry summoned the last knives on his disposal and threw all of them at Adam, yet with a couple of accurate swings, he smacked all the knives away from him effortlessly.

With his shoulder in front of him, Adam tackled at Henry and sent him crashing on another wall.

"What the hell is happening in here?!" The innkeeper came after hearing the commotion and almost passed out after seeing the hole in the wall.

It would cost a fortune to repair!

After seeing the two fighting, he continued shouting profanities.

"Mercenary business, stand down!" Adam shouted at the innkeeper while pushing Henry

deeper into despair with his powerful swings.

Since Henry only had one knife, he didn't bother throwing him, as without it, he wouldn't have any weapons left.

Thus, he just dodged, dodged, and dodged more.

At that moment, Adam tackled at him, wrapped his arms behind his back, and smashed through a window with him, falling several floors onto the pavement below.

SMACK!

The pedestrians scurried away in a hurry, and some went straight to inform the authorities of the Ebonreach that there was a fight happening in the streets.

"Whoo..." Adam rose above Henry, who hit his head pretty badly on the pavement and seemed to be unconscious.

"Had to make me sweat..." Adam wiped the sweat off his forehead. "You should've just plead guilty, idiot."

With that, he tossed Henry's unconscious body on his shoulder and started heading back to

the Quest Tavern.

...

The Quest Tavern's swinging doors blasted open, and a young man with an unconscious man

on the shoulder entered, catching the attention of everyone inside.

He walked to the counter and dropped the unconscious man onto the floor.

"A drink, please." Adam said.

"Right away, boss." The bartender said and gave him their very own brewed ale.

After drinking it whole, Shura came from her office and saw the scene-an almost sadistic

smile spread across her face.

"So, is this the little thief?" Shura crouched in front of the unconscious man and looked at his

face. "Wait, I know him..."

"You do?" Adam seemed interested.

"Yeah, Henry." Shura took a cigarette from her cleavage and lit it up before placing it between

her lips. "He used to be one of my quest takers, but he specialized in quests that made hands

dirty."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Adam nodded and asked. "So, was my quest successful?"

"That remains to be seen." Shura said. "Of course, we'll have to validate it first. You could have captured some random person off the streets, but no worries, it'll be easy to find out."

Adam nodded, expecting it.

"Come back tomorrow; you'll get your reward then." Shura said and threw a flirtatious wink before taking Henry's unconscious body to the basement to do the validation process.
