Capítulo 13: Hit the Road, Jack! : Hit Messing Around!
System Message: "A fresh one is coming for you Elicia. Be sure to put on a good shown!"
Elicia had just logged on the game, and already the system popped up a message for her.
*sigh*
- Some people just don't get it, do they?
Elicia was a good, hard-working lady. Well, she had to be, having such a bad husband as she did.
Jack Hooligan was a prodigal son who would frequently have her give him money when he was unemployed.
Not that he asked for it - it was just that a certain immovable force almost forced her hand at all times. Maybe it was his dog eyes? Or was it the resolution to go days without food if someone didn't buy some for him?
She just didn't had it in her to torture someone she liked. Neither did Jacks' mother, so, it was quite difficult for both of them to toss him out.
Still, things worked out in the end.
- Woah, he's progressing quite fast…
Elicias' dungeon was a mid-level one, while she herself was a high-level boss. Still, she was just a single-player ultimate boss, so many people would come to her dungeon when she was on.
Typically, that would be from 6pm to 12am.
On other hours, the dungeon would just remain closed.
- Wait, he went pass the minotaur just like that?!
She had full dungeon-related administration skills, so she had placed quite a bit of mischievous things in there. The minotaur was the third floss mid-boss, and quite a buffy one. It had a huge health bar, so no single player would go and directly kill it in one hit. They would need to be incredibly high-leveled to be able to do that, and from high-damage class as well!
- This…
A certain feeling welled up her chest at that moment. Even though Joe from the Mod team had just become her friend, both of them would be reprimanded if the so called "invader" made it past the fifth floor.
She activated the dungeon-speaker function and shouted.
- STOP RIGHT THERE! JACK HOOLINGAN!
***
The mod team had a very strict policy regarding the game.
Admins are Gods. Customers are Saints. Employees are friends. Cheaters are the enemy. And Compromise Contract Employees shouldn't be talked about. All praise Shaben!
So, Joe could only give a grim smile when his screen flashed with the "unauthorized employee deployment" alert.
It was him again.
Sincerely speaking, Joe was a nice guy. Just your typical, average nice guy, though. He wouldn't harm anyone and had his friends in his heart. Maybe that was also why he despised Jack.
- Good for nothing bastard, why the hell are you there now?!
Elicia's dungeon was one of the many he had the pleasure of watching over. The highest-leveled one as well.
So, he surely made sure to befriend the "almost single" mother of one, and even became good friends with her. Good friends and… a little interested in something more.
A shame she just liked that bastard Jack too much.
It wasn't easy for a man to like a woman who had a child already, but, what the heck, he just did.
Still, he wouldn't move too close to her. His hearth was a little black when thinking about her and her husband, but he just knew how much she liked the useless prick.
One day, he hoped, she would give him a chance and dump that useless boyfriend. Until that day came… well, he just needed to go on with life and if he happened to find someone else he liked, then that was destiny.
He entered the System Communication panel and changed a bit the contents of the regular System Alert Message which would be displayed to dungeon master Elicia, as soon as someone entered her dungeon.
- Hopefully this will be enough for her to pay attention to the dungeon management screen.
He was friends with Elicia, but, truthfully, they didn't know each other that well. So, he wasn't sure if she would keep the dungeon management screen opened all times or just laze around, digging in her den for gold and gems.
Nothing was most pleasurable for a dragon species than looking for gems and precious metals, so most of the dragon-like employees would spend most of their time fulfilling that desire. It was better than watching TV, at least.
"- STOP RIGHT THERE, JACK!"
- Hahahaha.
Joe laughed. This wouldn't take too long but would be a good show as it lasted.
- Oyh, Joe, is this Dragon King Trashing?!
- EVERYONE! Dragon King trashing on Joes' channel!
This kind of thing was almost a daily occurrence already, so most of the Mod team got themselves ready to watch the show. It was wonderful for the underpaid tech geeks to see an overpaid taboo being trashed live.
Someone even fetched popcorn and many started to boil water to ceremonially drink the now called "Dragon Kings' tea(rs)".
