บท 24: Obsession.
''Alright, everyone!'' A rippling voice garnered everyone's attention. A muscular man was standing in front of the dimly lit cave.
[Kornelius]
His player tag was floating right above his head. Kornelius was clothed in full iron armor, shield and sword sheathed inside a scabbard.
Isaac recognized him. He remembered seeing him in the weapon store.
Everyone quietened down and began waiting for the following words.
Few players present have seen Kornelius fighting, and that scene alone made their hair stand up. They would love to be part of the same side if they could.
Kornelius nodded after all attention was on him, ''I know all of you want to be the first to try the Solo Dungeon.''
Most of the players nodded.
They didn't want to risk anyone else getting the First Clear.
''But there are dozen of us, and only one can... So I have a suggestion.'' Kornelius said and stopped talking to let his words sink in.
Everyone waited for Kornelius' following words.
''It's a simple suggestion, we will vote, and the person who gets the most votes will be the first to enter, and you cannot vote for yourself,'' Kornelius said with his stoic voice.
The Players nodded and thought that it was a good idea.
Hellsky, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden began discussing who to vote for.
Next to them, Isaac grimaced.
'Sneaky... He has friends around the place, doesn't he...' Isaac narrowed his eyes.
Isaac thought Kornelius suggested it because he had friends and allies on standby, ready to vote for him.
Isaac's shoulders slumped, and he thought Kornelius's victory was almost guaranteed. He could be wrong, but he felt that Kornelius was a wicked individual.
''Wraith, we decided to vote for Hellsky— who are you voting for?'' SnowMaiden asked with her innocent and melodious voice.
''I will vote for her too,'' Isaac replied.
SnowMaiden smiled, ''Thank you.''
Clap! Clap!
''Alright!'' Kornelius clapped his hands.
''Make a line and tell your vote!''
The Players formed a line in front of Kornelius.
Hellsky, Isaac, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden were in the middle of the line.
''I will give my vote first,'' Kornelius said and used his sword to write on the cave wall.
He wrote [LucasKulo]
The first player in the line was a player with that name, but he didn't look surprised by his decision.
''Alright, next!'' Kornelius shouted.
LucasKulo appeared in front of him and said, ''Kornelius.''
Kornelius nodded and wrote Kornelius. Then, he made a tiny cut next to it.
The second person came and said, ''Hellsky.''
Kornelius didn't change his expression— he wrote Hellsky and one cut next to it.
The second person that had voted for Hellsky stepped to the side. He glanced at the beautiful Hellsky, hoping that she noticed him.
But her attention wasn't on him. She was currently having a passionate conversation with Isaac and her friends.
The third person stopped in front of Kornelius and said, ''Kornelius.''
It went back and forth, and soon it was Hellsky's turn.
The score was currently Kornelius 7 and Hellsky 6.
''Wraith,'' Hellsky said with a smile.
Kornelius wrote another name and added one line.
Hellsky left the line and winked toward Isaac.
Isaac smiled, even though he won't win the vote no matter what he did.
WinterLove was the next one, and she, of course, said, ''Hellsky.''
After her, SnowMaiden voted for Hellsky and left the line shortly afterward.
And then finally was Isaac's turn.
Kornelius glanced at him and thought that it was strange for his skin to be spotless. Even Hellsky, SnowMaiden, and WinterLove had their faces dirtied because of the endless fighting, but not his.
''Hellsky,'' Isaac said casually.
Kornelius was brought out of his stupor and was shocked to hear his voice.
'He is a boy?! What kind of sorcery is this?' Kornelius, with a shaky hand, added one more vote for Hellsky.
Score was now Kornelius 7, Hellsky 9.
Only 3 players were left.
Isaac walked next to Hellsky and crossed his arms.
'Three votes for Kornelius...' Isaac thought with narrowed eyes.
The first person said with a smile, ''Kornelius.''
Kornelius put one more line next to his name.
The second person appeared before him and said, ''Kornelius.''
Another line.
And finally, the third person said smugly, ''Kornelius.''
Kornelius put another vote next to his name with a smile.
''Voting is over. Come here to see the results!'' Kornelius shouted and stepped to the side.
They went to the cave, stopping only a meter away from there. Soon, they saw that Kornelius managed to achieve 10 votes, while Hellsky was at 9.
''I guess I am the first one, any objections?'' Kornelius asked.
Hellsky, WinterLove, and SnowMaiden sighed and went to sit in their previous spots.
The players nodded their heads and backed off.
The cave was now wide open.
The cave was dimly lit. There was a flicker of light that kept disappearing. While standing in front of the cave, Kornelius felt a breeze of wind brushing his hair strands to the side.
The whole scene looked creepy and malicious. However, Kornelius didn't bat an eye.
'This is only easy Dungeon... The First Clear will be mine!'
Kornelius tightened his grip on the shield and the sword. Then, he took a large strode forward and stepped inside the cave.
A message popped up in front of everyone.
[Player Kornelius Has Entered Solo Dungeon Swornword!]
[Max Players: 1]
[Completed: 0/100]
[Difficulty: Easy]
Isaac sat next to SnowMaiden, and sighed, 'I wouldn't have gone first... Way too risky, but I guess greed blinded Kornelius... He seemed smart, but maybe he has enough confidence in his strength to clear the Solo Dungeon.'
''Wraith, I must ask you, what kind of skincare products do you use?'' Hellsky asked curiously.
She was envious of Isaac's perfect skin.
WinterLove's and SnowMaiden's eyes sparkled— they wanted to know as well!
''None,'' Isaac replied— he has never used and never will.
He thought it was too girly to use one, and he didn't want to look like a girl.
''What?!'' They exclaimed, and they felt even more envious.
SnowMaiden touched Isaac's cheek and giggled, ''Soft.''
''Is it?'' Hellsky got curious and went to the other side of Isaac and touched his cheek.
''So soft...'' She used both of her hands to feel Isaac's cheeks.
WinterLove appeared in front of Isaac and started touching his skin as well.
Now Isaac's cheeks were assaulted by three beautiful women. Was he enjoying this?
No.
He puffed his cheeks which made him look even more adorable.
The three girls licked their lips and felt something... Dangerous awakening in them...
A look of obsession was replacing their gentle eyes.
''That's enough,'' Isaac said and took their hands away.
They looked disappointed, but they felt even more obsessed now.
''U-Umm, girls, a talk?'' Hellsky said with a rough breath. The redness was reaching from her cheeks to her soft ears.
SnowMaiden and WinterLove followed behind her with similar looks.
Isaac was rubbing his painful cheeks, ''Oww...''
