I do not know why I have to see Jacqueline when waking up. It feels like a curse, with Jacqueline's face haunting my dreams.
"Are you all right, Old man?"
I moved her face out of my way and noticed I was not wearing any clothes on my upper body. I felt pain in my left shoulder and my right wrist. It was covered in a green bandage when I noticed Jacqueline had made a remake of her dress, which was even shorter now. Her plump ass was almost showing, ugh, I don't want to think about it.
"We didn't find any bandage in the factory, but we can probably find something on the way to the town," Fierna commented.
A bunch of children were around as I slowly got up and looked for my shirt. A small child came forth holding my shirt in her hands and said:
"I wosha! Chlen nuw!"
Uh...Right! I wore a shirt that was soaking wet, but I didn't want to upset the little one who had tried to wash off all the blood. It made me wonder how the girls managed to get through the Office and follow me.
"How did you finish the Office when I passed both of you?"
Jacqueline raised her eyebrows, looking surprised at my question.
"You smashed the head in on the final boss without blinking and kept running. I managed to finish my one and noticed you from a distance running to the right, and I started running after you. Then, when Fierna finished all of them, she saw me from a distance and began to run after me." Jacqueline explained.
The girl from my dream came with my blazer, handed it to me, and bowed. The rest of the children also bowed, with a couple of demon babies in the back doing the same. All of them at the same time shouted:
"THANK YOU, MAN DRESSED IN BLACK FROM THE UZZA CLAN."
I was so confused. I just did my job and scratched my head with a weird expression. Well, the kids seem all right as we need to get them home...or wait a minute. I looked down at my watch to see how long time it was left until I would die, and the clock was ticking down from 18 hours. The children split up as the girl from the room with one of the diaper demons in her hands. It was bleeding from the chest area, and it didn't look like it had a long time left.
"Mister! As the Dameon has not long left to live, it has made a last request to go and free its brother-in-arms, who is in prison not far from here in a dungeon."
Dungeon doesn't sound like a good vibe at all, and if we get stuck there, it will be over.
"I am sorry! But I do not think we will have a long time here. We need to hurry to the town." I tried explaining to her.
"Dameon insist! You will get a companion for your trip."
I looked at Fierna and Jacqueline, yeah!... I do not want to build a harem and make this an erotic adventure like half of all LITRPG stories. Jacqueline is already wearing tight, with her dress almost showing her ass and Fierna's tank top and big tits bouncing around.
"COULDN'T BOTH OF YOU WEAR MORE TACTICAL OUTFITS INSTEAD OF LOOKING LIKE FREAKING BAYWATCH IS ON A VISIT!" I screamed to both of them.
Fiernas's eyes became more of darker red as she looked angry at my comment and responded:
"Hell is warm, and if you even blink in the direction of my boobs. I will kill you and leave you for dead here in Hell so the creatures can have fun with your human soul."
I think that escalated relatively high on a Richter scale to the 'do not bring these things up in your story' type of comment.
"Fine! We can not take all the children with us to a dungeon. I will go with the girl and the dia...I mean the Daemon to the Dungeon check after the brother in whatever battle arms."
"Fine! We will start to walk towards the town!
When we came out, the girl was pointing forward toward the location of the Dungeon.
"That is not possible for us to go! We need to walk back to where the Office is and move forward. What if you get stuck in the Dungeon and come out too late? You will have difficulty catching up with us; you know what will happen the more time it counts down. We do not even know if the 24 hours will always hold. If you start breaking down, it is over. We won't be able to come back for you."
"A life is a life. I don't care if we have to save all good creatures here in Hell. If it is not evil, it deserves to live its life, even in Hell. Imagine believing you could have done something right but didn't. That will live forever inside your heart because you decided to leave someone behind. I choose to save lives. That is how I am. A Van Polan never backs down, no matter what."
Meanwhile, in The Fallen Kingdoms Area, where Berk Van Polan currently is...
"FUCK YOU AND FUCK THIS FUCKING TOWN WE ENDED UP IN. ALL THE CITIZENS HAVE STATUS BARS IN THIS TOWN. WE ARE IN A FUCKING LITRPG, ARENT WE? I AM NOT GOING TO GO AND DIG UP FARM SHIT FOR 60 LEVELS AND CHAPTERS JUST TO PASS A FUCKING SUBLEVEL THAT HAS NO POINT TO THE FUCKING TOWN STORY. DO YOU GET THAT, YOUR DAMN BOX?" I screamed at the Box floating in the air, Mejni hit his paw toward his face, and Stella looked like a question mark, not catching up with why I was so pissed off.
The Box disappeared and left us at the entrance of the town.
A trembling blond farmer-looking guy approached us at the town entrance, but because we hadn't entered the line leading into the town, it didn't look like it could talk to us...yet. Blondi didn't stop trembling for some reason.
Mejni crossed the line, and we followed after when the trembling Farmer said:
"I...I...I...I...W...W...Welcome...You...To...L...L...L..."
"LITRPG Town," I uttered with a murky voice.
"I am...T...Tristan!" He said.
"Do we need to interact with the Retardo Berk! He acts like you:" Mejni whispered, and I looked at him surprised because I didn't tremble.
"Eh...So...what do you want, Tristan!"
"I...I...I have a big dream...C...C...Can I join y...y...your Party Or Guild."
Shit, it takes like forever for this guy to even ask anything.
A box with a lot of text appeared above Tristan's head. It read: Farmer, no battle skills if killed in battle, can dig up unions in 60 minutes, potatoes in 500 minutes. Blah blah, more text. Farmer is currently a non-playable character. Then, the Box updated the text to ask if Tristan could join our party. Oliva had disappeared with only Mejni on the ground, and I made signs with my hand so we could move to the side to discuss it.
"One second Tristan, I will talk with my cat."
"It is Meercat, you stupid hooman!" Mejni commented.
When we took a little bit of distance from Tristan, I bent down and told Mejni:
"I have the most fantastic idea because I am the best. Let the character join our party. We can use it as a shield in deadly situations. Nobody will give a shit if It dies." I said, and Mejni nodded with his tongue out, which made me wonder what the damn cat was thinking.
"What! Why is your tongue out? What are you thinking?"
"Uh! I was thinking of letting the Farmer join so we could use you as a shield hooman."
Why haven't I killed this damn cat earlier? I can see the eyes he wants to kill me. It always feels like a kill-or-get-killed situation with him around.
"Never mind, and put your damn tongue back into your mouth."
We returned to Tristan, and I pressed the accept button in the Box, and a big box of windows floated above my head. Tristan stopped trembling and stared at the Box above my head. I moved slightly to the side to see what the Box was showing, which made Tristan stop trembling.
"Tristan has joined The Villain Party Of Berk Van Polan! Information about the party is as follows: Playing on level Mission Impossible, a dangerous group that should get killed on sight. No capture is needed; there will be a big reward in the Billions of Randid if the party gets terminated."
Tristan fell on his knees and started crying like the world had collapsed. Well, it did collapse on him because we would use him as a shield.
Back to Zark Van Polan...
"You know what, let me retract my last comment. Zark Van Polan would never back down to save a life. I can not say that for the whole Van Polan organization because there is one idiot who is a danger to everyone. He probably kills more citizens than saves them, and I don't want to be associated with him." I tried explaining more correctly this time.
"I do not care!" Fierna uttered and walked away with most of the children and Jacqueline. She yelled with her back towards me:
"MAKE SURE TO NOT WALK BACK TO THE FACTORY. YOU ARE WALKING IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS WE WILL WALK. YOU NEED TO FIND A WAY THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS."
Oh...I didn't think about that; we were walking in the same direction as the town but on the other side of the mountains. All I have to do is find a way over to the other side to catch up. That shouldn't be so hard. We started walking with the dia...Daemon and the girl, giving me some hope that the Dungeon wasn't that far away.
