Time: 4:59pm
…
Time: 5:00pm
>Horny Assassin: All Manchester United fans, another brain-licking update for us, please stay tuned<
>Horny Assassin: [Screenshot]- Me and my buddies at war<
>Horny Assassin: [Screenshot]- Blaze the Fury at it again!<
>Horny Assassin: [Screenshot]- Executioner the inevitable!<
>Horny Assassin: [Screenshot]- Ash the sidekick and beast rider!<
>Horny Assassin: Caption- You can\'t dull my sparkle, forever Blaze the Fury\'s sidekick [cool face emoji]<
>Horny Assassin: [Video]- Watch how we do it in the Monster Triad unit [power to your elbow emoji]<
Instantly after 5:00pm reached, like usual, Horny Assassin did not disappoint, he kept to time as he uploaded the daily dose of videos which made Dominator so iconic and well-loved worldwide already.
Like usual, as soon as he uploaded them, the player forum was sent into a frenzy. The excited players were hyperactive as they chatted rapidly.
>Multiple players typing…<
>Not cooked but roasted corn: Horny Assassin you hypocrite! You\'ve completely abandoned Legolas already, did you betray the Blue Autumn Team?<
>Unleavened Bread: Damn, so Horny Assassin really became buddies with this assassin unit? How did he do it? Can we do it also?<
>Fiesty Potato: Why does Horny Assassin hate Ash so much? I like him, I think he is actually the backbone of this assassin unit<
>Fiesty Potato: Horny Assassin may call him a sidekick but if you look carefully, most times when they are in trouble, with that his powerful Wolf and mysterious beast that is always invisible, they always save the day<
>Fiesty Potato: I know Blaze is the undisputed leader of the team, I also acknowledge that Executioner is a crazy powerful Pugilist, but Ash, I think he is actually the fulcrum of this team that keeps it stable<
>Your Dad: Hey you Fiesty Potato! Stop spouting sh*t! This is not a f*cking English class, this is a f*cking Video Game, use simple English!<
>Fiesty Potato is typing<
>Multiple players are typing…<
>Sweet in the middle: Guys, I have a theory. Due to the rise of the Monster Triad assassin unit, I\'ve been thinking of something. I don\'t think Legolas is the main character of version 1 anymore, maybe the Monster Triad are the main characters<
This theory from sweet in the middle ignited a storm.
>Multiple players are typing…<
>Multiple players are typing…<
>I am the Sword God: Wait, I\'ve been overlooking it since but damn, is this right? Don\'t you think this video was taken in the Green Mist Forest?<
>I am the Sword God: Holy Sh*t! The Monster Triad is in our shelter!<
>I am the Sword God: Horny Assassin! Tell! Tell! Where are they?!"
>Die-hard Legolas fan: F*ck Legolas! Where\'s the location Horny Assassin, we can\'t let this opportunity to get next level access pass us by!"
On his VR helmet, Horny Assassin smiled as he looked at the new set of messages. His real objective was finally met, he smiled and inputted his reply.
>Horny Assassin: Come to the front of the Landmark Construction Company<
>Die-hard Legolas fan: Yeah man!<
>Executioner\'s Crush: Horny Assassin, you dah best!"
>Multiple players are typing…<
Thud! Thud!
The sound of their hooves as the horses pulled the chariot reverberated.
At this moment, from inside the chariot, Legolas relaxed as he casually glanced at the banter and jokes currently going on in the player forum.
He saw everything that transpired from when Horny Assassin dropped the advert material and when the players finally caught on the clue.
This was now his way to relieve stress daily.
Despite the fact that Dominator was a VR game, the general player forum was made in a way to accept only word messages. Voice chats could easily make the forum chaotic, so only word chats were accepted.
Of course, there were special privileges for videos and screenshots but they had their own channel.
You had to be famous for players to go view your screenshots and videos in large numbers, and Horny Assassin happened to be the current most famous player in Planet Darvis, even more than pro players.
"Hehe…" Legolas chuckled as he read some of the chats.
He deliberately created the confusion in the general player forum. To make his 2 identities as full-proof as possible, he also wanted to deceive the players.
Since the emergence of the Monster Triad, the activities of Legolas and his students became more lowkey. He allowed the Monster Triad to take all the limelight, but he still set some boundaries to keep on their façade.
In all the assassin missions, he took on more of a support role. Due to how famous and unique his beasts were, whenever he was forced to bring them out to battle, he always made sure to kill all the witnesses.
Only Christensen could comfortably bring out Leo, and on their missions, Brutus was always invisible to give the notion that he had an invisible beast.
Whenever he also had to bring Frigga, all witnesses were also killed.
Only Blade stayed true to himself, due to his incredible improvement speed, those who knew the old him could barely relate both Pugilists. The Blade of now was much more powerful, experienced, and ruthless than before.
The drive of revenge was a powerful one to seek power.
This way, Legolas was able to keep up their 2 identities. Not even the pro players and Blue River knew the truth, Horny Assassin was the only player who knew the truth but Legolas already bribed him with enough benefits.
Like a wise man once said, when there are enough benefits, everyone bends.
After a few dozen minutes, the horses finally came to a stop. They finally arrived at the gigantic mansion of the Landmark Construction Family.
They didn\'t go to their living mansion, this was the company headquarters.
As the premier construction company in Planet Darvis, they were worth befriending. Legolas and his 2 students took the 4 dwarf kittens inside.
Once they were inside the company, they met their employer in his office, the sole heir to the gigantic fortune of the Landmark Construction Family.
Thiago was a handsome middle-aged man with a neatly-trimmed hair and a pair of work glasses, he smiled at them. "I\'ve heard a lot about you, I\'m glad you did not disappoint, you\'re exactly as they say".
"The assassins of the future, that is what they call you".
His smile widened. "Welcome to my office".
"Thank you". Legolas and his students politely smiled at this rich kid.
As soon as Legolas and his students dropped the 4 dwarf kittens on the floor, they rapidly scurried over to their owner as Thiago\'s smile widened to the limit.
Clearly, this man adored his pets. "Come here boys".
"Miaow!"
"Oh, sorry Sho, not just boys". Thiago chuckled and rubbed her head. "Come here too girls".
He hugged them as they all cuddled with him for a few seconds before moving away, a smile was still on his face as he turned to face his clients.
Legolas smiled. "I can see that you love them a lot".
"Yes, I do". Thiago replied proudly.
"I told you guys that I was inspired by a story that I read to get them. Since getting them, I never regretted it once, they are cute Guardian kittens".
"They are my babies as well as my bodyguards".
"I intend for them to be as strong as Ash\'s Wolf someday".
Christensen smiled. "They definitely have the potential".
"Yes, or else I would not have bought them". He chuckled. "They\'re more intelligent than most beasts that are stronger than them which is a boon".
"I like wits more than brute strength, that is why I choose you guys for the mission". Thiago looked at Legolas with a smile.
It was no longer news of how smart Blaze the Fury was.
Legolas politely smiled and stood up. "I hope we can keep on working together in the future".
From the little conversation, he already understood this middle-aged man\'s personality. If he gave him enough ground, Thiago was ready to keep on talking about the 4 kittens till the next day which was time that he didn\'t have.
"Yes, we definitely will".
"Ahh…, your money". Thiago motioned at his assistant who quickly went to work, he turned to briefly apologize to the assassins.
A few seconds later, Legolas\'s assassin unit comm beeped.
>Beep<
>You have received a credit alert of 100,000,000 Darvis Credits into your unique Crimson Blades unit bank<
Legolas looked at this billionaire. "Thank you for your generosity".
Thiago smiled in reply.
-----
Your Favorability with Thiago has increased by +200
----
\'Damn, sometimes, it\'s just too easy to farm favorability with rich kids\'.
With that, they finally left the company mansion. On going outside, Legolas was not surprised, a battalion of players were already waiting for him.
He smiled. \'Horny Assassin is such a darling\'.
