"…."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGG!!!"
"?!"
ClownFrog suddenly released extrely loud scream right after beating O'a.
The sudden scream got everybody attention in near instance.
"…"
"N-no way… O'a… is dead?!"
The extermination squad mbers began looking towards the center of the battlefield and saw the lifeless corpse of the O'a and ClownFrog standing victorious above it.
"…What?"
"This can't be real?"
"HE KILLED O'A?! HOW?!"
The confusion and fear could be seen on the extermination squad mbers.
Even harpies that were watching the fight unfold couldn't believe that O'a was defeated and ClownFrog was still standing.
"…"
"C-capitan… What do we do?!" – asked one of the guards.
"Capitan?!"
"I-I…."
Even the city guard captain who was in charge of the extermination squad was found dumb founded to the point where he couldn't even think straight.
"…"
"Tch! ATTACK HIM YOU IDIOTS!" – shouted one of the rceries.
"KILL HIM NOW WHILE HE IS WEAKEN!"
"!"
Few of the rceries sohow regained their posture and began running towards the ClownFrog, but suddenly they ended up being attacked by the harpies and killed.
"Heh. I though you would just wait until all of this is over." – said ClownFrog.
"True. We weren't thinking of helping you out. But you sohow took out that monster bastard down, so now we have nothing to fear." – said the harpy with bandana.
"Oh. Then by all ans, go wild…. I on the other hand need to fuking take a break…." – said ClownFrog while falling onto the ground, completely exhausted.
After saving ClownFrog from the rcenaries, all of the harpies that were just watching had officially joined the fight against the extermination squad mbers.
(Fuck in the ass…. There was way too many close calls… The fight lasted for like what? 10? 15? 20 minutes? I don't bloody know….)
(He just cut down any undeads on his way like they were nothing…. He was sohow killing them faster than that Forgotten Bride.)
(I'm exhausted like hell. Specifically, ntally… If I did even 1 slip on, my head would end up getting chopped off or just end up being torn to shreds by his swords.)
(If that guy had so endurance or more health, then I would have fuking died.)
(Good thing I didn't let my guard down and activated the [Burning Ribcage] as soon as I impaled him.)
(But this guy… He was having fun?)
(I realized that after he got serios… He started enjoying himself? And even when I impaled him or when he launched that last attack, he was smiling?)
(He even died with a smile on his face.)
"…"
"…"
"Fuck this." – said ClownFrog while getting back up.
ClownFrog began taking out potions from his inventory and drinking them left and right.
While ClownFrog was drinking potions like a mad man, the rest of the party and the harpies were slaughtering the mbers of the extermination squad.
After the death of O'a, the extermination squad mbers beco disoriented and confused, to the point where they beca an easy targets.
The enemy couldn't even put up an proper fight after all of their morals hit rock bottom. So of the extermination squad tried running away in fear, but they ended up being catched by the harpies before getting eaten alive.
Before long, the last of the extermination mbers were killed, ending the battle for good.
"Fuck… Thanks for the help." – said Shri.
"No problem. Getting rid of these bastards benefits not only you but also us."
"However, we still have so things to talk about and especially about this little letter of yours. I want a full explanation!" – said harpy with headband while landing onto the ground.
"And one more thing, you don't mind if we take those corpse? We kind of want to eat them and all."
"Em... Okay?" – said GreyHunt.
"HEY! ClownFrog! The harpies want to take these corpse! So don't use them to make undeads!" – said GreyHunt.
"Hm?"
"E-em… Guys? Is he okay?" – asked Blueberry.
"?"
The party mbers noticed multiple empty flasks right next to the ClownFrog feet while also seeing the necromancer himself drinking potions left and right like madman.
"???"
"Em… Dude? The fight is over? There is no enemies left. Why are you drinking those?" – said confused GreyHunt.
"STEP. THE FUCK. AWAY!" – shouted ClownFrog.
"?!"
"DO NOT FUKING DISTRACT . RIGHT FUKING NOW!"
"?!?!"
"Em… What the heck is going on with him?" – asked the harpy with headband.
"I… I have zero idea? He never acted this way." – said extrely confused Rampage.
"…"
[MP: 100%]
"…Done…"
"…"
"Okay… lets fuking do this thing."
ClownFrog extend both of his hands forward towards the O'a corpse.
"?"
"Wait… Is he?" – said Shri.
"...Phew…"
I've been wondering about sothing for a long ti.
That ti, when I was still in starting village, I tried resurrecting the boss monster, but when I tried doing that, sothing weird was happening.
I experience a weird force trying to stop and my mana was getting drained like crazy.
In the end, I failed in raising the boss monster as undead.
I thought that maybe there is no way a person can raise a boss monster as undead. I an sure, its understandable. It's a boss monster and all.
But… What if it wasn't the case?
What if that weird force, was sothing like resistance from the corpse or sothing?
What if I was powerful enough, I would be able resist that unknown force and raise the boss monster as undead?
Raising boss monster seem like a straight up unreal and this is just a theory and all without any real evidence or anything… But… What if it possible?
"[Create: Skeleton]!"
ClownFrog activated the skill [Create: Skeleton] at the O'a corpse and as soon as he did a magic circle appeared right beneath O'a and began releasing necrotic energy.
However, as soon as the process started, he experience massive amount of unknown force that was trying to push away both of his hands.
"?!"
(FUCK!)
(This is like that ti I tried raising that wolf boss!)
(NO!)
(Its way, way far fuking worse!)
(It feels like so sort of typhon or sothing was trying to push my hands away if not completely destroy them! What the hell is this?!)
"BUT I AIN'T GIVING UP!"
ClownFrog was keep trying to keep both of his hands in place, even when they were assaulted from different side by the unknown force.
While ClownFrog was trying to resist the unknown force, the magic circle and O'a body began releasing even more violet necrotic mana as if an explosion was about to occur.
"?!"
"HEY! What the fuck is going on?!" – asked Rampage.
"I don't fuking know?! I saw this guy making or summoning undeads many tis, but I never saw anything like this?! I have no fuking idea what the heck is going on!" – said confused GreyHunt.
(What the fuck are you doing you mad man?!) – though GreyHunt.

"I AIN'T GIVING UP ON YOU! O'A!"
Even more of the violent necrotic mana was keep being released while ClownFrog was keep trying to keep both of his hands in place.

"…"
(?)
(…What? What is going on?) – though O'a.
(…)
(Oh... Right… I died…)
(?)
(…)
(This guy… Is he trying to turn into undead?)
(…)
(Nah… I already am done…. You can-)
"O'a! You son of a bitch!"
"I don't know if you can hear or not. BUT YOU BETTER FUKING LISTEN!"
(?!)
"You mother fucker! You were smiling when we were fighting!"
"You were smiling when you even died! Why?!"
"I tell you why you bastard! You wanted to have fun!"
(?)
"YOU WERE SMILING BECAUSE YOU WERE HAVING A MOTHEFUKING FUN!"
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
[HP: 100% -> 97%]
"The only fuking reason you ca was to fight! You didn't cared about the lifes of the innocent!"
"You just wanted an excuse to have a reason to fight!"
"I realized that! You smiled because you wanted to fight!"
The necrotic mana began filling the entire area around ClownFrog and O'a corpse and while it was happening, cracks began appearing on the ClownFrog bones.
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
"You son of a bitch! Tell ! Why the fuck you wanted to have fun?!"
"Gory?!"
"Pride?!"
"Wealth?!"
"No!"
"You didn't smiled because of that!"
"All you ever wanted was to swing your blades! You wanted to use them! You wanted to show your strength! You wanted to be yourself!"
(?!)
(How-)
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
[Warning! Your mana is depleting at fast rate!]
ClownFrog body began crumbling with so of his ribs beginning to detach from his body and even so of his teethes began falling off.
"You are a trash! But you know it! However you tried hiding it by playing a hero! You lied to yourself!"
"But that is not what you ever wanted! is it?!"
(?!)
"The fuking thing you wanted was to just fight! You didn't cared about anything!"
"You just wanted to live your own fuking life the way you wanted, but you never did!"
"Why?!"
"I tell you why! Because you didn't though about this!"
"Twin blades of journey?! What a joke!"
"You fuking enslaved yourself by trying to be a good person!"
"But in reality?! You never actually wanted to be one! You just wanted to be free in your own way!"
(?!)
(…Wait…. No…. Wait…. Yes? … He is right?)
(Why…. Why did I ever…)
…
Allow to tell you a story.
The NPC.
Everybody knows what this is.
It's just a character put into the ga that the player can interact with and they are not real people.
But in the Avriones?
The NPCs in this world are not an NPC that you see in gas.
They think.
They dream.
They love.
They hope.
They have emotions.
And their own stories.
True.
The developer team did scripted so of their stories and even made so of them a part of an important quest.
However, there is a good chance that their quest or story would never happened.
Why?
They think. They are like real people if not are seen as real people by many players.
Their stories may change. Based on their actions or actions of the others.
Then what about the O'a?
Well… His story would have played out as scripted.
O'a was a rcenary, but he never did knew what he truly wanted.
O'a was a part of a mayor quest where you have to help him understand himself.
However, it wasn't a simple "Know yourself".
No.
It was O'a true emotions.
The emotions he hid from himself and never knew.
As you progressed through his quest, O'a would start to realize. Realize that he was lying to himself.
He wasn't fighting for the justice, he was fighting for fun!
In the end, O'a would truly understand his feelings and challenge to a fight to the death.
If you were to defeat O'a, he would die satisfied and the player that would beat him would unlock a LEGENDARY class called [The True Battle Maniac] class. A class that represented his O'a true feelings.
Truth to be told. If ClownFrog never did murder O'a, his story would go that way as scripted.
Not because he was scripted that way, but because of who he was.
However, this situation?
Is sothing that even O'a never exapted.
He thought that he died satisfied.
BUT!
As he listens more and more to the ClownFrog, he realized the reality.
ClownFrog understood the O'a real emotions after fighting him.
ClownFrog saw his real emotions showing and realized sothing was off and after thinking about it, he realized. O'a was lying to himself. He saw a part of his past in him.
He wasn't a hero. He was an asshole! He always wanted to be one!
O'a was mad…. Mad not at his murder. But at himself, for not knowing himself.
"Tell ! are you really happy with this ending?!"
"You smiled! But was that your real smile?!"
"Or just a lie you told yourself?!"
"I'm happy. I'm satisfied!"
"Bullshit! All of it was a lie!"
"A lies you told yourself! Weren't they?!"
As the ClownFrog continues yelling at the dead O'a, his body began to crumble even more.
His fingers and even part of the tail now began cracking and falling off.
[Warning! The necrotic energy is rampaging through your body!]
[Warning! Your mana is depleting at fast rate!]
"…"
"…"
"You know? I know that I killed you and I don't feel sad about this or mad."
"I'm happy! I'm happy that I beat you!"
"But tell ! Are you?!"
"You though that this is the end that you wanted! But it's not! Is it?!"
"You know that by becoming my undead you will beco my slave!"
"But you will be finally free!"
"You will be free from the reason that chained you down!"
"Be mine and be free from yourself! Screw everything and be yourself!"
"So shut yourself up and give in!"
"I'm an asshole that won't be bound by a morals and will do whatever the heck I want!"
"And you?!"
"Tell ! What do you want?!"
(…)
(…)
(…)
(…He is right…)
(I really did…. I really did lied to myself….)
(…)
(…)
(You have your deal.)
"!"
(The force?! It getting signific weaker!?) – though ClownFrog.
"!"
(I can do this!)
"AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHH!!"
ClownFrog necrotic mana was completely going on the rampage through the entire area and mont later, a large explosion occurred.
"?!"
The explosion itself made the sand being shot into the air and spread everywhere, creating a cloud of a sand that covered the entire area.
"…"
"Em… What in actual hell just happened?!" – asked Shri.
"I have zero fuking idea!" – said Oron.
"…"
"Heh."
"?"
"Hahaha…HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!"
"!?"
The party mbers and the harpies began hearing the ClownFrog laughing like a mad man.
"…"
"Okay? I'm officially scared and creeped out." – said Rampage.
Monts later, the sand cloud disappeared around ClownFrog, revealing his now badly damaged body that was covered in cracks and even had half of his tail missing alongside so of his other bones.
(?!)
(What the fuck happened to him?! Why is he so roughed up?!) – though GreyHunt.
The group looked in confusion at the ClownFrog who was still laughing, however monts later the rest of the sand began settling down, revealing a figure of a second person standing.
The group instantly put up their guard up, thinking that one enemy was still left.
"Ah. Don't worry guys. He is our new friend."
"?!"
As soon as the rest of the sand cloud disappeared, the entire group saw a single unknown skeleton standing right in front of the ClownFrog.
"Welco to the team, O'a." – said ClownFrog.
