Chapter 184 - Episode 184: Blacklisted.

Francesca and the others are logged in to the game. The first thing they do is to look at their friendlist and check on Trevor's location, but they have no idea where is he at since they haven't explored the other side of the Orion. Grisell then looks outside the house through the window and she turns around with a panicked expression.

"Guys! Look outside!"

All of them are looking at the window and there are hundreds of players are waiting outside the house. It's unusual for them to see that many players gathered around the house. Michael is looking at everyone.

"So... who wants to go outside and asks them why they're standing outside our house?"

Everyone is just standing in silence and looking at each other. Francesca clicks her tongue.

"Fine... I'll do it myself."

Francesca walks past everyone and they're looking at her opening the door, and as soon as Francesca is outside the house, all the players start ranting at her. All of them are asking about Trevor and where's he at. It seems that they're gathering around the house is to hunt him down.

Francesca walks down and looks at all the players who are screaming and shouting in anger. Francesca sighs.

"Can you all just shut up?!"

All the players are looking at her with hatred. One of the players then moves forward.

"Where is he? We are here for him. We don't have any business with you!"

Francesca is furrowing her forehead and raises her eyebrow.

"First of all, we have no idea where Trevor is and he's not in the house. Second, what the f*ck do you mean you don't have business with me? This is not Trevor's house you dumb f*ck! This is Grisell's house. You're in the wrong place if you're looking for him you."

All the players are slowly getting fumed by Francesca's words. Francesca nods up and glaring at them.

"What? Are you all angry at me? If you don't like it then come at me! You all came here to someone else's property and disturbed us with your lousy mouth."

Michael and the others know Francesca too well. Her mouth can be so harsh once she's annoyed and she's not afraid of the consequences of saying those words at anyone. She's a very bold kind of person and once she's like that, the only one who can stop her is Ivonna, and unfortunately, Ivonna is not here with them and this is looking very bad.

Michael is looking at Francesca through the window.

"We need Ivonna... we need Ivonna... this is going to be a mess if nobody can stop her."

Chelsea walks past him and turns around.

"Try message Ivy and tell her to come back here as soon as possible. I will try to calm her down."

All of them nod and immediately write a message to Ivonna. Chelsea gets out of the house and stands next to Francesca. She puts her hand on Francesca's shoulder.

"Calm down, Francesca. Even if you're not wrong, but your impulsive reaction might make us in the wrong here. Let me handle this now."

Francesca looks at Chelsea and sighs.

"Fine, but if they're not leaving in 10 minutes. I will kill all of them and I know that you're all going to help me with that even if you all don't want to."

Chelsea nods.

Francesca is backing away and lean on the wooden column in front of the house while keep staring at the players. Chelsea then looks at the players.

"I know that all of you are here for Trevor, but he's not here with us and we are not trying to hide him or anything like that. If you don't believe us, some of you may enter the house and you can look for yourself, but please, don't do it like this. You're all raising your voices in someone else's place is very rude. We just logged in because we saw the videos and read the forum, so we really have no idea what happened earlier."

Francesca moves away from the doorway and looks at them.

"Some of you may enter if you want to check."

All the players are looking at each other and none of them seem to want to enter the house. Chelsea looks at Francesca and raises her eyebrows. Chelsea clears her throat and then looks at them.

"It seems that you all believe me now, then I can show you where is he at right now."

Francesca is furrowing her forehead while Chelsea is opening her friendlist. Chelsea then shares her friendlist screen so anyone can see her contacts. Chelsea walks toward the players and shows the screen at them.

"You can see my friendlist now. As you all can see, Trevor is not here, and he's at the foot of the Delaisse Mountain. We have no idea where it is, but that's where Trevor is at right now."

Chelsea then closes her friendlist screen and crosses her arms.

"Since you all know where he is right now, shouldn't you all go there and find him?"

All of the players are hesitant and look at each other since none of them know where it is, and some of them are looking at the discovered map in Orion. Turns out the Delaisse Mountain is quite far from anywhere, and if they want to go there they need at least a few days to reach the mountain. After knowing that, they're leaving and giving up on looking for Trevor.

Chelsea sighs and sits on the porch. Francesca looks at Chelsea with disbelief that she manages to make all the players leave. Michael and the others are leaving the house and surrounding Chelsea. Michael is looking at the screen and then humming.

"Ivonna hasn't replied to my message and the others as well. It seems that our message isn't going through her or I think she's undergoing some kind of trial to become a disciple in there so that's why she's not replying."

Francesca and Chelsea are looking at Michael and just humming with understanding. Francesca then lifts her body and sits next to Chelsea.

"I can't believe you really gave them Trevor's location."

Chelsea is looking at her status screen and chuckles.

"What's wrong with that? Even if they go there and find him, I bet they will be dead as soon as Trevor sees them."

Chelsea is shaking her head and scoffs.

"Based on the bonus stats I got from being Trevor's Apostle, I can see his original stat from here. He's at least have above 1000 on every stat of his. Not to mention that his LUK is above 2000. Even if millions of players are attacking him, he can kill all of them easily."

Francesca and the others are looking at her and laugh so hard. Leo is raising his eyebrows while sighing.

"He did and been there. The most unpleasant and nerve-wracking experience we have ever had. He's a beast that's for sure."

(Somewhere at the foot of the Delaisse mountain)

I look down while Azrael keeps flying and it's already nighttime here.

"Az, we can walk from here."

Azrael nods and then goes down.

I get off of Azrael and look at the map to see where we are and how close we are from the Headless Cult's lair. I should be able to see the lair in a few hours by walking.

*Ding!*

I tilt my head and Emma is messaging me. She's telling me that there's a video of me killing NPCs and players in Fjel town and I'm already on the blacklist. She also tells me that hundreds of players came to the house and asked them where I am, this is much worse than I thought. I think it's better for me to stay away from them from now so they won't get involved in this mess. This is nothing but just the beginning of my plan. I reply to her message and telling her that I won't be back or seeing them from now on. I can't tell her the details since I want to do this on my own. Emma is quite annoyed but she understands the situation.

I'm done replying to Emma's messages, but then Azrael starts sniffing. I raise my eyebrow.

"What's wrong, Az?"

Azrael looks at me.

"Master, I'm smelling something weird and I can smell them all around us..."

I'm putting my hand on Azrael's head.

"It seems that they have noticed us here. Well, I'm not surprised since we are quite close to their lair and they're patrolling around the area to prevent intruders or just to find prey to kill. I think the smell that you're smelling is the smell of a deadly poison that they applied to their weapons. Just act natural and follow my lead, Az."

Azrael nods.

"Yes, master."

We keep walking deeper and then we both hear a rustling sound coming from our right. We both look at the bushes and then a very old man is leaving from the woods and he's startled when he sees us. He's putting his hands on his back like an old man that having back pain.

"Young man, what are you doing here in the middle of nowhere?"

I smile.

"Good evening. We are just exploring the forest and we are planning to check the mountain."

The old man is laughing weakly.

"I see, well then. Since we are going the same way, may I guide you there, young man?"

I smile and nod.

"Is it really okay? Then I will accept your offer and thank you very much."

The old man is smiling and nodding.

"It is my pleasure, young man. There are barely any adventurers to go here, so seeing a new face around here is quite a pleasure for me and the people in the village. Oh, that is right, you can stay in the village for the night!"

I smile and nod.

"Then I will do that. Thank you."

The old man smiles and then he walks past us.

We are following him from behind and he's being quiet ever since he's leading us. I look at Azrael and slightly nod. Azrael is whimpering and looks around. The old man slightly turns his head and looks at us from the corner of his eyes while smirking mischievously. The old man then turns around to look at us but then Azrael is already leaping toward him with his mouth wide open. Azrael bites his head and crushes his skull.

A notification appears.

[[Disciple Quest #1] and [Hidden Quest: Hacal's Revenge] (Updated)]

[1/8144 Headless Cult has been killed]

I look around and smirk while grabbing my chained sickle and my scythe.

"Come out now and let's play."
