Springwood town;
At a peaceful town in the southern part of the kingdom with less than 3000 player population, two siblings in level-80s are standing before the mayor as a part of the quest.
As they were waiting patiently, the mayor finished reading the letter they delivered and took out a pouch before handing over to them.
"Thank you, adventurers. Here, this is your promised reward."
*Ding. You completed the quest in time. You receive 100 fame, 50k exp, and 3 gold coins as a reward.
Both of them looked at each other, widening their eyes in amazement as they didn't expect the reward would be this generous when it's a simple delivery from one mayor to another.
Intending to cash out this opportunity, the elder brother asked, "Lord Mayor, is there anything, you need help with?"
The mayor glanced at him and then took out a letter before handing it to him, "deliver this letter to Duke Nukegan. But, remember that it should be confidential. You will be handsomely rewarded once you complete this job."
*Ding. You receive a quest request.
Description: Viscount Jehanson wants a confidential letter to be delivered to Duke Nukegan within 3 days.
Reward: 300k exp, 10 gold, 500 fame.
Bonus rewards according to the time.
Warning: The letter drop with a 100% chance upon dying. The quest will be treated as a failure if the letter is fallen into others' hands.
Since it is just another quick deliver job with generous rewards; both of them accepted it before exiting the mansion.
They started to walk towards the temple where there is a teleportation formation so that they can quickly reach the capital city in an instant and complete the quest.
"Bro, once we do this, we'll have a capital of 29 gold together. Let's keep 10 gold for us and exchange the remaining 19 for credits," said the younger one.
The elder one nodded, "yeah. The gold rate is decreasing as the days passed. It's better to cash out now. With 600 thousand yuan in our account, we can move to a new apartment…"
But, who could have expected, a devil in the form a human would arrive at the right time and destroy their hopes of living a better life…
*Ding. You were killed by Time Traveler. Quest is a failure.
Along with the both of them, dozens of players who were roaming around in the streets for quests or shopping around in stores suddenly died and received the same notification without knowing what's going on, as a gust of heavy wind hit 100-meter surroundings around the temple.
As more than 50 players resurrected in the temple with a shock on their faces, they stayed still as they watched Wil, who was wearing exquisite prince robes and a black mask, taking out his bow. The question marks on his head changed into deep red in color.
His eyes appear cold, dead, and flat as he turned his head towards them and spoke indifferently, "the town will be destroyed soon. If you wish to stay in the town, don't step outside until it is over or you can leave right now and settle elsewhere."
Without caring about their feelings or the warning by the system, Wil continued to walk straight as a few guards coming towards him, intending to make him pay a fine for killing in the town oblivious to the fact their target is the crown prince.
*Swoosh*
As an arrow flew like a lightning and pierced a level-120 guard in a blink of an eye, the rest of the three raised their shield, replacing their frown with seriousness.
Meanwhile, a notification rang in Wil's ears.
*Ding. You killed a guard of Springwood town. Your status changed to a criminal.
Ignoring the notification, Wil continuously shot three arrows in a second, which not only pierced the shields but also their stomachs thereby killing them instantly.
"Summon Golem, Attack mode."
While the deaths of four guardians and 76 players along with 250 natives didn't cause a commotion since it just happened in a couple of streets away from the center of the town, the appearance of the Giant Golem certainly caused panic among the players as well as the natives, who started running around for their lives while some of the players in town started moving towards the Golem in curiosity.
After killing six more guardians, one more notification rang in his ears.
*Ding. You killed ten guards inside the town. You can capture the town and become Mayor once you kill Mayor Jehanson.
*Ding. Warning: You will be resurrected in the town's jail if got killed or captured and your level decreases by 2. Start the invasion?
As Wil clicked on yes, the system sent him another notification.
*Ding. Your status rose to the enemy/invader. If you die, you shall resurrect and spend eternity in the town's jail unless you are pardoned by a Marquis or a higher rank noble.
Meanwhile, the players belong to the town received a quest by the system.
*Ding. Springwood town is being invaded by a mysterious outsider. Defeat him and protect the town's mayor.
Participation Rewards: 50k exp, 20 silver, 25 fame.
Killing rewards: 2 million exp, 20 gold, 1000 fame.
Climbing on to the top of its shoulders, Wil ordered, "Golem, go towards the Mayors' Mansion. Destroy everyone that will be on our way."
After a while;
*Ding. You killed the town's guardian. The protection on the Mayor's mansion wears off.
In an empty ground before the Mansion that's filled with nothing but equipment of players and dozens of dead bodies of NPC guards, the Golem went inside the compound and stood at the door like a guard as Wil jumped on to the ground and stepped inside the house.
Standing in the middle of the hall, Wil shouted at the top of his lungs, "Viscount Jehanson, stop hiding and surrender yourself. I might think to spare your life if you come before me, right now. If you don't, I'll bury you along with this building. You can see my Golem standing outside, right?"
Soon, he saw a level-1 short middle-aged man slowly walked out from the kitchen while shivering lightly from top to bottom in fear.
"You are here, Viscount Jehanson," greeted Wil with a smile.
"You... really... will spare my life?" stuttered Jehanson as his face filled with hope.
"Of course, I won't. I only want to say something directly to your face before you die," replied Wil as his smile widened.
Looking at the smile that appeared like a devil, the shiver swarmed over the back of his legs, Jehanson lost the strength to stand and started begging with tears while collapsing on his knees, "please spare my life. I'll give you all of my wealth."
"Ugh... I hate this part of the game," grumbled Wil inside his mind before retracting his smile and replacing it with a cold look, "The reason you are dying is that you chose to side with an enemy of King Mirella. That makes you a traitor of the kingdom. And a traitor doesn't have any right to beg for forgiveness. Don't worry, Duke Nukegan and your allies will soon join you."
"Who... Who are you?" asked the mayor in disbelief.
"Fireball"
A Giant 2meter fireball hit the mayor, who was looking at him in a shock, and quickly, he became a scorched dead body.
*Ding. You killed Mayor Jehanson. You successfully captured the town.
*Ding. You killed Viscount Jehanson. A part of Mirella's quest has been completed. You received 500 fame as a reward.
*Ding. You are the current mayor of Deloris town. You cannot become the mayor of Springwood town. You can either resign your post and become the mayor of the town or you can appoint a mayor, who is at least Viscount rank within 7 days. Failure to do so, the King will assign one.
And the players of the town received a system notification.
*Ding. The town has been captured by an adventurer. The quest will be discarded and the town will go under a protection period of 7 days.
"Good then. Let's see if there's anyone in our guild who can take over it..."
This time, instead of ordering Aster again, he directly made an announcement in the guild channel.
Time Traveler: Guys, for the next seven days, your task is to work hard to get fame. Go to the capital city and look for the quests. The first one to become a Viscount will become the Mayor of a town.
Just when he was about to look at the responses, the system sent a sudden notification.
*Ding. Someone is calling you from the outside.
"Hmm, Silver?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
