[VRMMO] Chaos Doctor

"Hey, did you heard about the "Wood Mask"?" – asked the elf player who was walking through the streets of the Wolf city alongside the dog beastman player.

"?"

"Wood mask? The hell is that? An item?" – asked beastman.

"No, its an player. He was quiet popular in the Agion kingdom. He was known for selling some nice items. Armor, weapons and potions. He earned quiet popularity, but apparently he was always wearing the wooden mask when doing business, probably to hide his identity against the players who were harassing him to join their guild."

"Oh…. So…. What does that have to do anything with us?" – asked the beastman player.

"Do you remember how you said that you needed the new axe?"

"Yea, my current one is no good anymore." – replied beastman.

"Apparently, the Wood Mask has moved to this kingdom, probably because of that whole "Doctor" incident that resulted in him changing location where he can open up business again."

"And the interesting thing is that this guy is currently in here, Wolf city."

"I had visited his shop recently and he was selling some high quality stuff! That guy is real wood mask and some pretender pretending to be him!"

"He maybe have some interesting stuff you can buy from him, like the replacement for your axe.."

"Hm….Fine. It honestly wouldn't hurt to try and see what is that "Wood Mask" guy selling." – said bit annoyed beastman player.

"So? Where is he anyway?"

"Well, there." – said the forest elf player while pointing at the sight with mask symbol that had round eyes and hole mouth.

"?"

"The hell is this? A mask? Is it because he is called "Wood Mask"?" – asked beastman player.

"Probably? Anyway, let's go in."

The two players opened the door, ringing the bell as they opened it.

"Ehph?!" – the elf player made an weird noise as soon as he entered the building.

"Hm?"

"What is it?" – asked the beastman player as he also entered the building.

"?!" – the beastman player saw an zombie right next to the counter, surprising him.

"Hello." – said Phantasia without his mask right next to the desk.

"….Wait, you are a player?!" – asked the elf player.

"Yea. I'm an zombie human." – replied Phantasia.

"Oh….Em…. So, you work here?" – asked the beastman player as he began looking around and spotting several weapons and armors.

"I'm the owner."

"?"

"What?" – asked surprised elf.

"I'm the owner of the "Wood Mask" store. Phantasia, A.K.A "Wood Mask"."

"?"

"Wait, are you really Wood Mask?" – asked beastman.

"From what you told me, the Wood Mask is wearing the mask to hide his identity."

"Yea, this is correct. I hid it because I didn't wanted to deal with annoying guild trying to recruit me, but now its getting more annoying as fake Wood Masks appeared and I also have another reason why I cannot hide my identity any longer."

"I don't want other people to steal my achievements."

"?"

"Achievements?" – asked confused yet curios beastman player.

"….Well, it will spread sooner or later, so I may as well show you." – said Phantasia as he reached for something from underneath the table and then putting it on top of it.

"?"

"Wait, is that a gun? There are already guns in this world and stuff, so I don't think making an gun is….Well, anything special?" – asked the beastman.

"But… It looks bit weird though?" – added elf player.

"Well, it is gun, but it's also an completely brand new weapon that may not have existed in this game already."- said Phantasia.

"Its called magic gun, but you can also call it mana gun."

"It doesn't shot bullets, but instead it shoots magic."

"!"

"Wait, "Shots magic"?" – said the shocked beastman player.

"Like, magic "Magic"?"

"Yeb."

"…Holy shit."

After doing enough research and securing enough materials, I had officially started selling my mana guns to the public.

I was still somewhat nobody in this kingdom, but the news regarding the "Wood Mask" managed to spread enough to interested costumers and after they discovered the magic guns/mana guns, they ended up spreading the informations everywhere.

And oh boy, the number of the clients? They increased.

The news regarding the player creating brand new type of weapon, the magic gun, ended up spreading quiet far and wide.

Not only that, but the fact that the "Wood Mask" decided to stop hiding was one of the things that ended up alluring people even more.

With that, Phantasia name had gained fame, but that also gave me some trouble.

"Hey. Join our guild!"

"No! He will join our guild!"

"Fuck off we were here first!"

The two players were fighting inside the store, disturbing other players that were waiting in line.

"…."

"SHUT UP!" – shouted Phantasia on top of his longs, shutting both of the players up.

"?!"

"Look. I don't plan to join any guild yet."

"I want to stay neutral for now and still develop myself, improve my crafting."

"So I won't be taking any sides now!"

"So, if you don't have any REAL business with me, get out since you are annoying everybody right behind you!"

The two players looked behind and saw a group of very annoyed players behind them, before then quickly getting out of the store.

"….Sorry for inconvenient, so ma'am, what are you looking for?" – said Phantasia to the next costumer.

I'm already in the Wolf city for quiet sometime.

I had leveled up, experimented and crafted stuff.

After settling down a bit, I finally started producing the mana guns and as you can probably had guessed it, after the rumors about my magic guns spread, I got a lot of attention. Not only for the magic guns, but my other stuff, by the look of things I had gained way more popularity than I had expected.

(However, it caused people now being more greedy when it comes to recruiting me, to the point its becoming annoying.) – though Phantasia while locking the door and closing up the shop before then picking up the broom and starting to cleaning up.

(The plan worked and now I'm known as the "Real Wood Mask", so unless the imposters reveal their nicknames, they won't be able to use the Wood Mask name anymore.)

(Not only that, I saw several NPCs getting interested in my magic guns, some of them had bought the magic guns.)

While cleaning up with the broom, somebody had began knocking on the door.

"…." – Phantasia ignored the knocking and continue cleaning up the shop.

*KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK* *KNOCK*

"…."

"For fuck sake."

Phantasia approached the door.

"Can't you read? Its closed!" – said Phantasia after getting right next to the door.

"…."

"Mister Phantasia, owner of the "Wood Mask" store, we wish to talk with you an moment."

"Yea? And who is it?"

"Zues, the guild master of the Hunter Wolf guild." – said the voice outside.

"?!"

Phantasia grabbed handle and moved it alongside the part of the door, allowing Phantasia to look outside.

"!"

After looking outside, Phantasia spotted an tall man with short black hair as well as wolf ears and tail.

(Shit! This is the real guy?!)

"…."

"What do you want?" – asked Phantasia.

"If is it about the magic guns, bad luck buddy, I ran out."

"Not exactly that." – said Zeus.

"Its bit complicated, so is possible to talk in private?"

"…"

Zues.

The founder and the guild master of the guild Hunter Wolf.

He is one of the more well known guild in the Berior kingdom to the point you can call him popular.

And the guild master Zeus, despise not wielding any thunders or anything like, despise calling himself Zeus and that is quiet weird. I mean, call yourself "Zues" when you don't have any thunder and stuff? Its like calling your pet an Fenrir, even though it's an cat!

However, depside his nickname, Zeus is known as very powerful warrior that had earned this fame with his own efforts.

Not only that, but the Hunter Wolf guild is also quiet strong.

(But why the fuck is he here? He came here personally alongside other members of his guild.) – though Phantasia while noticing several other people alongside the Zues.

(Does he wants to recruit me as well?)

(But I had already told many people "NO" and people know about it…. But so far all of those people were just random nobodies and that guy is both strong and popular guy.)

(What should I do?)

(Should I refuse him?)

(But is that good idea?)n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

(What if he start harassing me?)

(No.)

(He wouldn't do that.)

(And if he were to do that, then he would get fucked, since I'm also getting quiet popular.)

(But then again, I don't want to deal with him and I want to take it easy right now while in secret doing experiments and also leveling up.)

(But then again, why is he here?!)

(I maybe famous, but isn't this…. Well…. TOO FUKING EARLY FOR THE BIG GUILD LIKE HIM TO MAKE AN MOVE?! Or maybe the time is now? I don't fuking know!)

(Just what the hell is happening?! It honestly doesn't make any sense!)

(….)

(Fuck, I really don't want to do it and I can already say that involving myself with this guy will probably also involve me into something like some sort of big quest maybe. It could be both good and bad for me….)

"….."

*Sigh*

"Fine." – said Phantasia before closing up the gab and then opening up his door.

"I don't want to have any annoying problems or you coming here again, so let's just do it."

(Its better to first find out what the hell does he wants first.)

"So? What do you want to talk about?"

"Like said before, I want to talk in private." – said Zues.

"So, if possible, would like to visit our base?"

"Sure. Lead the way." – replied Phantasia.
