MMORPG: Strongest Assassin Online

Alex and Max looked around before opening the door, as soon as they came in they quickly shut the door before Alex brought out his light orb.

"Gabriel are you here?"

"Alex is that you..." Gabriel sighed in relief before walking towards them.

A knock on the door startled the three of them and they heard the voices of people outside the door.

"Did anyone see you guys entering here?" Gabriel whispered.

"I don't think so we checked" Max whispered back.

"Maybe there are just asking around, since the NPC who lives here is dead, I would act like him and tell them off," Alex said.

Max and Gabriel found a place to hide and Alex stalled for a while before opening the door.

*Yawn loudly*

"What's wrong," Alex said in a sleepy voice and stretch both of his hands upward acting like he just woke up.

Two NPCs were in front of him and five more were close by, Alex had to act the role because he couldn't afford to die in the newbie village, even with Max and Gabriel joining the fight they would be outnumbered.

Worst case scenario, if the level 10 NPC joins the battle there is no way any of them would survive.

"Did you see anyone around here, we are looking for a male, he killed someone" the NPC in front said.

"Killed someone!!!" Alex exclaimed loudly.

"Yes..."

"I was sleeping, you guys were the ones that woke me up...you guys should find whoever did that and make him pay, a human life is very valuable," Alex said and shook his head.

"We will... thanks for your time, you can go back to sleep," the NPC said and they all began to leave.

Alex closed the door and slumped to the ground, he took a deep breath before standing up again.

"That was really scary, any mistake and they would have seen through me" Alex mumbled to himself.

"Haaaaa" Alex shouted at the top of his voice when he looked at the window.

One of the NPC placed his face on the window and was looking inside the house, Alex saw the face and thought it was something else.

"What is wrong with you..." Alex shouted at the top of his voice.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, I was just checking," the NPC said.

"It's night time, why would you do something like that" Alex shouted making the NPC stagger backward.

The NPC stare at Alex a little before moving away from the window and finally walking away, Alex watched as the NPC walked away.

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ "Are they gone" Gabriel whispered from behind a chair.

"Shut up," Alex said to Gabriel.

Alex sat on the bed inside the room and waited for a while before Gabriel and Max came out of hiding.

"I don't think they saw me entering here, they must have been asking around," Gabriel said.

"Yeah, but now we need to leave the newbie village," Alex said.

"We are all level two players so we can be able to assess the bridge at the end of the forest," Max said.

"We can't go now because it's nighttime, and NPCs are looking for me, so we should wait till morning," Gabriel said.

"Well, I'm logging out, I know it's already nighttime in the real world," Alex said.

"Where should we meet?' Gabriel asked.

"Don't worry about that, we are inside a house, if you log in again we would appear here instead of appearing in front of the village" Max told them.

"Oh, is that so, then I'm logging out," Alex said.

"Wait...we should decide on the time when we should log back in," Max said.

"Tomorrow is Sunday, 10:00 am should be okay," Alex said.

"Okay...bye guys," Max said.

Alex removed the helmet and stretched his hands, he stood up from his bed and went to the toilet first. Alex came out of his toilet and his eyes glanced at the window.

"I knew it would be nighttime already, at least I have a take-out meal so I don't need to cook, I should just eat them and go to sleep"

Alex ate the takeout Gabriel ordered from the restaurant earlier and took a shower before going to sleep, he didn't even check his phone before dozing off to sleep.

Alex woke up late the next morning, even after waking up, he still didn't stand up instead he lay on his bed for almost 20 minutes.

Alex finally mustered the strength to stand up, he checked his phone and the time was already 9:50 am.

It was also time for him to meet Gabriel and Max, he quickly went into the toilet to do the morning business before brushing his teeth.

After that he went to the kitchen to fix something for himself, he quickly made french toast with some eggs and ate it quickly.

Before he could enter the game his phone rang and it was his mom calling, he wanted to ignore it then he saw 5 missed calls from yesterday.

"Hi Mom good morning," Alex said.

"Alex...why didn't you pick up my calls yesterday, you were the one who told me you wanted to come back home, why are you avoiding me"

"No mum, I'm not avoiding you, I was just busy"

"Busy with what, school is over so what are you busy with, don't lie to me young man," Alex's mum said in a stern voice.

"Really mum, you think I'm lying to you..."

"I'm sorry sweetheart, I didn't mean that, I'm just sad you don't want to see me again"

"I miss you guys, and I wanted to call, I'm coming home on Wednesday," Alex said.

"Really, I'm going to prepare your favorite meal, your dad and your sisters would be so happy to see you," Alex's mum said happily.

"Okay mum, bye now I'm going to call you later" Alex ended the call and smiled brightly.

He grew up with a gentle and loving mother, his dad was a little stern when he was younger but not anymore, and his younger sisters adore him so much, his life was just perfect.

Alex grabbed the VR helmet and wore it and a message appeared.

[User cannot connect]

"What!!" Alex shouted.
