Chapter 645: Dronacharya's Fate
Chapter 645: Dronacharya’s Fate
Dronacharya looked at the news about an elite victory on the forums and fell into the deepest pits of depression.
He had hope that despite him being inside the dungeon the merchants would eventually win the war and then when he would be dragged to court for a trial , he would make his grand speech infront of scar-face about how all of this was a big misunderstanding.
He had already prepared his innocence speech infront of scar-face , but unfortunately for him that opportunity never arrived. Rudra decapitated scar-face and the merchants eventually went onto face defeat in the war.
He shouted at the top of his lungs when the retreating merchant army went past the barracks however nobody stopped to unlock his cell , as he was left abandoned in the holding cell of a enemy camp that was fleeing the country.
The next few hours were the worst for dronacharya , as he thought this was the end of his gaming career , as with nobody ever coming to free him , he was essentially stuck inside a prison cell forever.
His life flashed infront of his eyes , until he realised that he could always log-out of the game and get some real life help to bust him out of here.
He was a trillionare , he could easily afford to hire tonnes of teams to do the job ….. Or so he thought until he realised that he was no more a trillionare.
He had invested deeply inside the war and the anti arrow protection armour and the other stuff had costed him his entirety of fortunes. He had nothing more than 3.4 million dollars in the bank and he needed that for emergency sustainance.
Thinking about this , he once again fell into pits of frustration as he madly tried to lash out at the cell bars , but it was to no avail as no matter how hard he tried he could not even put a scratch on the thing.
The cell was made to detain tier 4 war criminals , and a tier 3 dronacharya was absolutely no match for it. It seemed like his destiny was to spend the entirety of his time in this cell , until he heard a sound.
” Amitabha … Are you okay? “.
It was Yume the monk , who was not present in the victory ceremony because Rudra had given him a special task which was to track down dronacharya and extort the last page of demons diary from him.
Luckily for the elites he was in a holding cell left abandoned by the merchants , as there could not be a better situation for them to leverage the page out of him than this.
It seemed like the gods of fate were truly against dronacharya as everything he seemed to do backfired at him in the end and for no fault of his own at that.
Looking up at the sage like monk who kindly asked for his well-being dronacharya broke into tears as he felt like he had finally been saved.
” M-m-my angel! “. Dronacharya said as he hugged the cell bars and started to weep infront of Yume who took two step backs to avoid being drenched in the salty water.
It was his nature to be kind as a monk , but it did not mean he genuinely cares one bit about Dronacharya’s wellbeing as he was disgusted by the outburst of emotions.
But being the monk that he was he kept a serene expression on his face as he let dronacharya weep in peace.
After a while dronacharya said ” Thankyou monk for coming to save me from my misery. Tell me the name of your monastry i will donate 100 gold coins to your monastry every year and i will even give new set of clothes “.
Although yume was not a worldly monk who cared about money he chuckled when he heard this ridiculous donation pledge. His monthly salary at the elites was 100,000 gold coins it was this low only because he had nothing to do with the money.
And the clothes he was wearing were unique rated one of a kind in the entire game. It was not something the likes of dronacharya could ever replace.
For him to be offered 100 coins and new clothes , dronacharya was just plain delusional.
Yume said ” Amitabha , you misunderstand. I am not here to save you … “.
Dronacharya fell from cloud nine to the ground in a second as the elation from his face dissapeared as he started to look at the monk suspiciously.
” What are you? Why are you here ? Im not into men … Dont think you can take advantage of me … Shoo , shoo “. Dronacharya snapped as he started to utter gibberish but yume had already figured out his weak point.
” Amitabha , i can free you , but in return i want any one thing that you have in posession with you and you cannot refuse “. Yume played his extorting card and dronacharya was taken aback.
Dronacharya was wearing precious armour and although his weapons had been confiscated he still had his accessories on him which were all atleast epic rated or higher. The loss of any one of them would be a huge economic blow to his already struggling self.
” What kind of a fake monk are you , how dare you extort a poor criminal like me …. Shooo , shooo , bad monk , bad monk shoo “. Dronacharya shoo’ed away yume as if he was a wild animal , however just as Yume started to walk away he realised that without him saving him he would most likely rot in the cell for a long time , hence he reluctantly said ” Stop monk , my good monk , my dear monk …. I was obviously kidding … You can have my shin guards , they are dark gold grade , i will give them to you if you let me go “.
Yume stopped and said ” Amitabha a monk wears no armour … I have no interest in armour “.
Dronacharya understood his meaning and looked at his shoes , his shoes were made of featherweight iron and increased movement speed by 10% , it was an excellent item and the monk probably wanted it.
Although it was epic grade , dronacharya had other good boots to replace it , hence he reluctantly agreed to signing a system contract with yume where in return for one item of his choosing , except his armour , he would free dronacharya and the two will part ways without fighting afterwards.
Dronacharya did not even think that Yume would ask for something from his item space as technically there was no way for him to know , hence when Yume namedropped the item he wanted to possess. Dronacharya’s soul went cold.
Yume said ” Amitabha , please hand over the page from demon’s diary in your possession “.
Dronacharya stared blankly at yume, for he could not believe his ears at the item the other party had demanded for.
Having paid an astronomical price for it , it was his bargaining chip as he planned to sell it to the highest bidder in the upcoming system auction and regain some of his wealth. But the other party directly attacked his most valuable asset and he was left clueless as to how it happened.
Obligated to fulfill the system contract dronacharya handed over the page with his hands shaking and his eyes full of hatred as he spouted venom against Yume ” You you you monk , you SCAMSTER monk , i will kill you , you hear me , i will find you and kill you. I will never let you sleep in peace , i will come sneakily and cut your balls off when you are sleeping … You bastard monk … You hateful monk “.
However yume paid no heed to dronacharya’s words as he kept the item in his system space and opened the holding cell from the outside to keep his part of the deal and Freeing dronacharya.
Walking away from that man with a serene expression and a namaste mudra , Yume absolutely did not care as an angry barking dronacharya followed him like a dog chasing a car.
However when dronacharya realised that Yume was headed for Purplehaze city , his legs went weak as he had no courage in walking into the city where the strongest army he had ever seen in his life fell short of victory only moments ago.
Cursing his luck and the stupid system contract that did not allow him to hurt Yume for 24 hours , he rushed off into the woods as he tried to recover from his depression.
Dronacharya understood perfectly well that the monk could have only been working under the orders of one man and one man only , however he could not even mumble that name without feeling his blood boil , as a scream coul be heard from inside the woods that said ” DAMN YOU SHAKUNIII!!!!!!! “.
