[VRMMO] Dead One

Chapter 798: Chapter 799 – Top Hat – Part 14.

<<I ran through the whole town, trying to stop the disaster from happening.>>

<<I leaped over the war and ran towards the army of monster... Trying to confront them.>>

<<I could see them.... And I could tell that some of them were humans once.>>

"STOP! STOP IT NOW!" – shouted Lucy in desperation as she tried confronting the monsters, stopping them.

"IF YOU ARE STILL PEOPLE! THEN STOP IT! I BEG OF YOU!"

<<I’ve tried stopping them with peace.>>

<<I knew that some of the experiments were still "people" inside.>>

<<Even some that no longer had any normal appearance, there were still a chance that they had retained their mind.>>

<<I screamed. I begged them to stop, even when they started attacking.... But nothing was working.>>

<<They were getting closer and closer to the town too.... And I knew what would happened to moment they would reach it.>>

<<...>>

<<I slaughtered them.>>

<<I used my bare hands to rip them apart.>>

<<I ripped their claws and used them as blades.>>

<<I used their own limbs to strangle them.>>

<<I used my fingers to just grab and rip out their organs.>>

<<I just give up on saving them, if I wanted to save the town and all the people living in it.>>

<<...>>

<<They were dead.>>

<<I killed them all.>>

<<It was easy.... Too easy.>>

<<Fuck.>>

<<There was no point denning it after what I did.>>

<<I’m already the "weapon".>>

"HOLD IT!" – shouted the voice from behind, as the number of the town guards were running towards the scene... Only to stop as they saw the blood filled massacred everywhere.

"..." – Lucy slowly turned around, covered in head to toes in blood.

"HOLD IT YOU MONSTER!" – shouted the panicking guard as he and the other guards were terrified of Lucy, thinking that she was another monster.

"..."

"I’m Lucy."

"!"

"Wait! Stop!" – said the guard captain as he stepped forward, telling his men to lower their weapons.

"By Lucy you mean that bandage girl who warned us about the Red monsters?!"

"Yes... It’s me." – replied Lucy.

"I-"

*Cough*

"Hurts..." – said the dying human experiment, who has left side of his body completely turned into red tentacles.

"!?"

"You still have your sanity?!" – asked Lucy as she straight up rushed towards the dying experiment, straight up ignoring the guards’ presence instantly.

"WHY?!"

"WHY DIDN’T YOU SAID ANYTHING! WHY DIDN’T YOU RAN AWAY WHEN I TOLD YOU TOO?!" – shouted panicking and terrified Lucy.

*Cough* *Cough*

"Shit! HEY! HEY!" – shouted Lucy as she turned towards the guards.

"MEDIC! BRING ME FUCKING MEDIC! THIS ONE IS STILL HUMAN! YOU HEAR ME!? HE IS STILL-"

"Don’t...." – said the dying experiment as the guard captain approached Lucy and the experiment.

"I.... I want to die.... Please.... I want to die."

"I don’t want to be this anymore.... I don’t.... Please...."

"..."

<<We tried saving him.... But there was no use.>>

<<The injures that I had inflicted on him were.... Too sever....>>

<<I didn’t killed a monster.... I killed a human.>>

<<...>>

<<But why?!>>

<<WHY DID HE DONE THAT?!>>

<<WHY DID HE WORKED WITH THOSE MONSTERS WHEN HE STILL HAD HIS SANITY!?>>

<<Why....Why did I had to kill a ’person’?>>

<<...Did he... Was forced to do it?>>

<<Or did he just wanted somebody to kill him?>>

<<...>>

<<It didn’t took long for the commotion to kick in.>>

<<The entire town was in panic.>>

<<The Red monsters were here, aiming to destroy the town.>>

<<This isn’t something that can’t be ignored.>>

<<The Old London location is nowhere near this town.>>

<<There are other towns and villages that are much closer to the Old London.... And yet, the Vigor town was the town that got attacked?>>

<<...>>

<<There could be several explanations for it....>>

<<But the one that made most sense was this.>>

<<The other towns and villages were already destroyed.>>

<<And we were the now "closest" settlement to them.>>

<<This made the whole town go to the full panic mode.>>

<<There is a good chance that it won’t be the last attack that appear.>>

<<Can this peaceful town defend itself?>>

"No." – said Lucy.

"I’ve seen some of these experiments.... And the ones that I’ve fought back there were nowhere near the strongest ones...."

<<I was invited to the meeting, despise being seen as a "monster"... All because I had knowledge.>>

"I can fight these monsters.... But if there is too many of them and they will go past me, the town would be good as gone."

"Not only that... We still don’t know if he.... No."

"If the Red Dragon won’t be ever on the move." freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"And honestly? I don’t know if I can beat him.... The reason why I ended up this way was because of his breath attack.... If I would get hit like that one more time.... I would probably just die."

<<Despair.>>

<<I didn’t wanted to give them false hope, so it was obvious what emotion they would feel instead of hope.>>

<<I maybe monster and weapon myself... But I’m not almighty.>>

<<There is also the Red Dragon.>>

<<This monster.... I don’t know if we can beat it.>>

<<And if it were to unleash that liquid light.... The entire town would perish.>>

<<But what do we do?>>

<<Evacuate the whole town?>>

<<Or do we just stay here, hoping to survive?>>

<<We don’t know how many Red monsters are out there right now, as well as how many of those more powerful Red monsters are out there.>>

<<The town guards... I’ve tested them.... And I can definitely say this.>>

<<They won’t stand a chance against the stronger ones.>>

"..."

"We need to evacuate the entire town." – said the elderly vampire.

"EVACUATE!? YOU WANT US TO EVACUATE?!" – shouted the male goblin.

"Do you really think we can survive this?" – asked the guard captain.

"Even with her on our side, we can’t fucking win this if there will be too many of these Red monsters!"

"Do you really think we will get another one of ’her’ to suddenly appear and help us out!?"

"We were already lucky enough that she somehow appeared from the skies!"

<<Conflicts. Confusion. Chaos.>>

<<Nobody knew what to do and nobody agreed with each other.>>

<<Obviously this dissuasion wouldn’t be done quickly.... But at the same time.>>

<<The Red monsters wouldn’t sit idly either.>>

<<Another wave of them appeared.>>

<<I’ve managed to intervene and slaughter all of these monsters once again, preventing them from reaching the town.>>

<<But there was a problem.>>

<<This second wave was noticeable larger than the previous wave.>>

<<And this made the town residence even more terrified.>>

<<But again, they couldn’t agree with each other.>>

<<Run?>>

<<Or defend?>>

<<The conflicts only intensified.... But the fact remains, that this second attack came way too quickly.>>

<<We will need to make decision soon.>>

<<And if we make a wrong decision.... This entire town and all of then people living in it will be murdered by those Red monsters.>>

<<...>>

<<Honestly... I could had just ran away.>>

<<Heck!>>

<<Even after I saved the people of this town TWICE already, they are only growing more terrified of me.>>

<<Some people even whisper that the monsters are coming here because of me, since I was also one of the experiments...>>

<<Obviously that isn’t the case.>>

<<My ability to sense things got enchanted to the monster like level, which also includes ability to sense that divine blood that is running through their and mine veins.>>

<<But they don’t care.>>

<<Nah. They just want somebody to blame for all of this... Even though I was the one that saved them all, I was a monster that they all feared as well... So, I’m the perfect target.>>

<<Because of that, I moved away from the hospital, even thought Elizabeth wished for me to stay.>>

<<...>>

<<She is just like Eli...>>

<<They are not really then same, but at the same time they are the same.>>

<<Heck! Even their names are the same! Elizabeth and Elizabeth!>>

<<...>>

<<I don’t want her to suffer.>>

<<So I just moved one of the old houses that were unoccupied.>>

"Hey. What are you doing?" – asked the young boy who was wearing an oversized top hat.

"..."

"Jack." – said Lucy as she was moving her bed.

"I’ve told you time and time again, you shouldn’t be even talking to me."

"I’m dangerous and the other children will mock you."

"Nah. I don’t care about them." – said the child with a top hat.

"Well, what does your mother think about this?" – asked Lucy, as without even looking could feel the presence of Elizabeth.

"..."

"Please don’t be mad at him." – said Elizabeth who put down two baskets on the dust covered tables, ones with bandages and medicines, and the other filled with various food.

"He is just worried about you."

"And I think I told you as well, that it would be for the best if you leave me alone now, Elizabeth." – said Lucy as she turned around.

"I’m worried about you two."

"Heck. People of the town are calling me the monster and just looking for any excuse to blame me for all of this."

"They are just terrified."

"This was just a peaceful and calm town recently... And now monsters are appearing out of nowhere."

"Honestly.... I’ve overheard the conversation amongst the guards... That they terrified."

"But then, you came in and dealt with those monsters."

"In their eyes, you were their hero."

"And not in just theirs."

"Many more citizens of this town are calling you are hero."

"So don’t let those who speak ill of you get under your skin."

"..."

"Ha..."

(You say that.... But there is no demining it.) – thought Lucy.

(I’m a monster.... I look "HUMAN", but I’m no longer a human... Heck.)

(My only way to identity me as human was my body... But now?)

(Even this is gone.)

(I’m nothing more that filthy murder now.)
