Chapter 187 Voodoo Magic

As dark clouds gathered in the rainy city of Yatagarasu, lightning flashed and rumbling followed. A meeting was currently held in one of the dojos.

Nearly ten figures had gathered in a dojo belonging to Zahhak.

They all had insignia of three-headed dragons on their black cloaks.

They were members of Zahhak.

After creating enough chaos in Amaterasu, they returned to Yatagarasu.

"Boss!" Arsenal shouted after appearing from the pixels.

He was about to go to bed back in real life, but then happened to check the Martial Online forums and was forced to return here.

After sending a message to Cerberus and not receiving an answer, he expected him to be in Martial Online.

However, he didn't expect others to be there as well!

"I know," Cerberus said while carving a small wooden puppet from a block of oak.

Arsenal looked at the other members of Zahhak and scoffed.

"So, all of you also saw that announcement."

"Yeah, haha!" Rainman shouted while looking with a crazy glint outside into the rain. "I thought I was hallucinating at first, but then Cerberus contacted me!"

"So, what shall we do?" Arsenal ignored Rainman and asked a question from Cerberus.

"We will go to Warhaven." Cerberus stood up and finished carving a small face for the puppet.

The wooden puppet looked badly carved around the edges, with splinters sticking out in various places. However, it had an air of mystique that seemed to captivate anyone who laid eyes on it.

But then Cerberus stabbed the small knife through the puppet's chest, and a dark liquid began to ooze out.

"Am I seeing things, or is that thing bleeding?" Arsenal asked with a frown. "What the hell is this?"

"This is..." Cerberus slowly cracked a sinister smile. "...a wonderful item that we have acquired."

"From where and what does that do?" Arsenal asked.

"Haha, I did that!" Glowstar, a spiky gray-haired man with a lanky body and long face, said. "He used a thing called Death Oak to carve that puppet.

"It has been said that Death Oak possesses mystical properties and is known for its ability to bring inanimate objects to life," Glowstar explained. "In a way, that is true. However, the puppet cannot move, but it could bleed."



"So?" Arsenal was confused. "What kind of use does it have?"

"I can use my voodoo magic and curse a certain person to have his mind transferred to that puppet!" Glowstar said with a crazy grin.

"Oh..." Arsenal started understanding what they were trying to do. "Then what?"

"Then, he is trapped in that puppet, unable to escape." Glowstar said with a grin. "It will be a fate worse than death. He can't do anything except quit the game."

"Damn." Arsenal shuddered at that horrible fate and was once again reminded of the scary nature of Glowstar.

'If that happened in reality, it would really be a fate worse than death.' Arsenal thought with a hint of fear.

'That's why the Wuhan Clan, where Glowstar originates from, are enemies of the whole world.

'They are feared and despised, even though they are mostly considered myths these days.

'Even I thought so, but then I met Glowstar.

'They even brought an entire empire and its emperor down with their evil voodoo magic.

'It would be ridiculous to think that the magic really exists back in reality, but Glowstar had destroyed my view of reality many times.

'That's why he is the man I fear the most!'

...

At the Forever Company.

Jacob surfed on the ForeverTube.

It was like any other day, but it was again the time of day when he and a few others had to choose tomorrow's featured videos.

"Yo, Jacob." His friend said from behind him. "Olympos' video had become quite viral even without the feature. Should we give a feature to that?"

"He just copied Ambrose's video, no?" Jacob said in boredom. "It's even worse video, except it's higher quality."

"That doesn't matter, though. Our boss is angry if we don't." His friend argued back. "It would probably get over fifty million views if we gave it the feature. It would increase the revenue of the company."

"Yeah, but..." Jacob sighed and waved his hand lazily. "Do what you want."

"Mm." His friend nodded and decided to give Olympos' new video a feature.

"Jacob!" A tired-looking woman rushed from the resting room.

She looked thrilled for some reason while holding a phone.

"What is it?" Jacob asked.

"Look!" She turned the phone around and shoved it in front of Jacob's face.

"Too close!" Jacob groaned and snatched the phone from her hand, then moved it slightly further away before focusing his tired eyes on the screen.

The screen showed a channel called Ambrose, and ten minutes ago, a new video had emerged.

"He made a new video?" Jacob asked in a surprise.

"Yes, and it's not just any video!" The woman laughed hysterically. "Olympos made an announcement a few hours ago and put a bounty on Ambrose's head.

"It's clear that they have a rivalry of some kind, as he accused Ambrose of stealing his video idea, which I find laughable as Olympos is known for stealing other good video ideas before.

"Now, everyone wondered why Olympos put a bounty on Ambrose's head. If it was only because he suspected him of stealing the video idea, it would be nothing but bullying.

"However, now Ambrose has uploaded a video of killing Olympos!"

Jacob's jaw hung low.

He was not aware of anything about that because he had been sleeping the entire evening as he was preparing for the night shift.

He didn't expect Ambrose to be familiar with other big shots!

Yesterday, he uploaded his first video and got featured instantly.

It put him in the spotlight, but Jacob thought he was a complete newbie, yet he had made enemies of someone very famous like Olympos!

"Let's see the video!" Jacob gave the phone back to her and opened the video on the computer screen.

All the other night shift employees gathered around to watch after hearing the commotion.

They were surprised that Ambrose, who could be considered a one-time wonder, challenged and killed one of the most popular tubers.

This had never happened before, as everyone was obsessed with keeping a good reputation.

Hunting and killing someone with a big fanbase was the same as shooting himself in the foot!

The video began, and as the fight proceeded, everyone gasped and sometimes flinched as they expected either one to die.

As the video got near the end, they thought Ambrose was actually going to lose the fight and began wondering about the truth behind the announcement.

However, Ambrose pulled a reverse uno card and ended up defeating his opponent with a surprising move.

They had seen a lot of fighting videos before about Martial Online, but they had never seen anyone defeat an opponent like that!

It was awesome, thrilling, and blood pumping!

After the video ended with Ambrose's last message, one of the employees asked with a shaky voice.

"Did he just say that he was going to continue this challenge?"

Jacob grinned largely, as did the woman behind him.

"Yeah." Jacob laughed as he could imagine a storm approaching.

They realized that Olympos clearly lost a lot of face by losing like that, and they even heard his arrogant words that made many of them frown in displeasure.

This ruined his reputation a great deal.

Now, all popular tubers had to be careful because of Ambrose!

Jacob crossed his arms and giggled like a child. 'This will be the start of something awesome.'
