The Immortal Player

Chapter 43: A Shape Shifter?!

Somewhere in a cave, Mathew was still happy from the recent transaction he had!

"Pro bro! Look! Here are more of the same item!" Bert was holding two more cylindrical containers on each hand as he approached Mathew.

'There's more?' Mathew was shocked and was shaking of excitement.

"Can I have these as well?" Mathew asked kindly to Bert with a smirk.

"Of... Of course pro bro! Hehe..." Bert handed Mathew the two cylindrical containers that had all black eyeballs and all-white eyeballs.

'These items were of close to no value! If I could get pro bro's favor with these items... Our path in this game is secured!' Bert was feeling happy not knowing how much Mathew could earn from those two items.

"I have some matters to take care of... head back with Star first!" He commanded as he started messaging Pedro again.

"Ok pro bro!" Bert was humming happily back to the entrance of the cave.

'Four months of salary! I hope Expert brother would still need these items for his quest!' Mathew chuckled as he sent Pedro a message.

...

Happy Face Killer: "Expert Brother! Do you still happen to be in need of the same item? I had two more! Same price!"

...

When Pedro read Mathew's message he was astounded. He suddenly looked like someone who won a lottery! After a second he began jumping like crazy!

'Why is Expert brother not answering... perhaps he needed only one!' Pedro often replied instantly on his past messages. A minute has passed already but he had not answered yet.

'Let's finish this deal fast!' Pedro got exhausted from jumping and shouting. He headed straight to the trade interface and Mathew accepted immediately. The trade was done and the two items headed straight to Pedro's inventory.

Mathew was delighted as his bank account was increased by months worth of his salary. He memorized Pedro's email address and cellphone number. (The cellphone number Pedro gave was a number from a prepaid sim card so he could dispose of it whenever he wanted.)

"Pro bro! RUUUN! The village soldier got angry and is trying to kill us!" Bert and Star were running towards Mathew at full speed, behind them is the berserk village soldier Tam who was swinging his sword in a frenzy.

"You Sc@@! You take my treasure! Years! Years, I've been looking for it! I even needed to stay in that disgusting village! Yet, you Sc@@ took it! I'll kill you!" Village soldier Tam roared. Mathew followed the duo who just went past him. They ran as fast as they can until they met a dead end!

...

Minutes earlier...

"Good job! Go rest for now! I'd explore the cave a bit deeper!" Village Soldier Tam commanded as the trio went back to the entrance of the cave and He went deeper in the cave.

When the trio got into the entrance of the cave, Mathew notices an unusual crack in the wall near the entrance. It was hard to fit in the crack but the trio was able to fit in. When they reached the end of the crack, It was another cave. They entered and walked for minutes until they saw the god's eyes that were being held by a skeleton on the ground.

"Such luck..." Mathew could only grasp of envy as he holds the container containing the god's eye.

'No worries... If Expert brother is a scam... I would at least earn two months worth of my salary!' He consoled his self. He sent his message to Pedro.

...

Happy Face Killer: "Expert brother! I have found something similar to your description earlier! But... the 'eyeballs' were all colored gray! It shows unknown when we appraise it, hence I decided to give you a message, Wondering if the trade you said earlier is possible?"

...

...

...

Glaaag... glaaag! glaaag... glaaag!

After a minute of running, they've reached a dead end! The raged village soldier Tam dragged his sword as his red blood eyes were focused on the three.

"I'll ask for the last time where's the treasure!!!" Village soldier Tam roared as his clothes were torn suddenly. His body enlarged and grayish fur started to cover his whole body. His face resembled that of a wolf as a grayish fur covered also his face. A tail grew from his back and his fingernails turned black and pointed.

"A..." Bert and Star could only stare from shock.

"A traitor in the Kagat Village! He plans to create chaos in the Aquari continent by starting with the destruction of the Kagat Village!"

...

"... Shape Shifter type! A werewolf!" Unlike Bert and Star, Mathew has a resolve. Village soldier Tam grew a few feet high and the magical energy he releases was too frightening that any player could not lift a finger.

'If I would die... wouldn't it be better to give you a little trouble!' Mathew wore a wryly smile. He grasped his 'Newbie Sword' tightly!

All the three items that can only be found was already to Pedro via trade! The money was already transferred to his real-life account so he really had no reason to be dejected. It was unfortunate that the system didn't notify them of an update to the S-rated quest, and needed to eliminate the village soldier.

'Maybe... we should have not encountered this area or gave him one of the items that the S-rated quest be updated!' He could only regret a bit as Mathew thought of the possibility.

'Never the less! It's a hundred percent that we may die... Every escape route available was inside that monster's attack range ever since I saw him chase these two idiots! Besides... thanks to my experiences in AVR games that I was able to calm myself and analyze the situation! Look at those two statues looking...' Although his character would be deleted, He had not felt any regrets at all, he had profited way beyond his expectations already. He could only shake his head as he glanced to Star and Bert who stood like a statue.

"Sister Star! Let's act like a statue and don't move! Maybe, it might work and we may survive!" Bert messaged star as his sweat slowly falls down in his face and his heartbeat starting to increase slightly.

"What else could we do?! We're dead meat either way!" Star messaged back in a ridiculing and angry manner.

"You don't want to speak! Then farewell!" The raged werewolf Tam stroke his sword towards Bert and Star.

"Don't forget my compensation for dying!" Bert gave Star a wink and a thumbs up. The sword of werewolf Tam descended upon them hitting Bert first then Star with a horizontal strike.

Mathew received the hit with his Newbie sword that broke instantly. But due to the force, He was left with only a sliver of HP. However, the force pushed gave him a boost to launch past werewolf Tam. He smirked as he dashed away immediately as he passed the monster.

Before he could celebrate a hand caught his feet and he was held upside down. When he glanced to the owner of the hand, It was werewolf Tam. He dropped his sword and reached for Mathew.

He squeezed Mathew until he split into two.

'Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!' Although he had reduced the pain felt by 75%, Being squeezed was way too painful of an experience. (Since some pro players preferred to feel the pain to increase their awareness.)

Before he could calm his self a system notification appeared.

...

[You Died! Character deletion and automatic logout will commence in 3!]

2!

1!

...

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" the VR box opened as Mathew shot up in a sitting position.

"Hah... Hah..." He sweats as tried to catch his breath like he just finished an exercise.
