MMORPG: Strongest Assassin Online

Chapter 155 155 Melissa/Huntress 2



\'I look beautiful, he said I look beautiful\' Melissa\'s face had turned bright red and she faced away as she blushed furiously.

"I can\'t believe you are one of the top 5 players, how much do you get paid?" Alex asked.

"5,000 dollars in a month, that\'s the only reason my mum still lets me play the game," Melissa said.

"5,000!! A month!!" Alex\'s jaws dropped. \'When I bought my helmet, I had to save for months, if I had enough money then I would have been only of the top players by now\'

"Is it too small or too big?" Melissa asked.

"I would be happy if I can earn that amount of money in a month, though I\'m coming up, I\'m going to be one of the top players in a few months" Alex stated.

"Your in-game name is Reaper right, where are you currently?" Melissa asked.

"I\'m heading towards Zenith City, then to a pirate city then to Silver Continent, I\'m searching for a potion called the shadow potion," Alex said.

"Shadow potion, you know about it?" she asked surprised.

"Yes, you know about it too"

"It\'s a dead end, anytime we chase a lead on the shadow potion it always leads to danger and more danger, we\'ve been searching for months and we haven\'t found anything"

"Really, I found a merchant who trade slaves and he told me, the people responsible for the Shadow potion have a hideout in the Silver and Gold continent, and slave girls are used for magical experiments," Alex said.

"Wow, any lead we chase always leads to danger, I wonder why"

"You have been saying we, are you part of a guild or a party?" Alex asked.

"No, the top players formed a makeshift team to explore mythical dungeons in search of mythical weapons, we have raided two so far and we came out empty" Melissa spoke.

"You formed a team with the top players, is Wraith part of your group?" Alex asked with sparkling eyes.

"Yes, he is,"

"Wow, I would like to be part of your group, I have to level up quickly so I\'ll be part of the top ten players, so no mythical weapons have been found right?" Alex asked.

"Yes, among the top ten, only one person has a legendary weapon, the rest of us still uses epic weapons"

"Huh!! really, I thought all the top players would have legendary weapons, but my steel daggers are rare quality, so to get a better dagger I\'ll have to get an epic weapon"

"No, you would find an epic weapon in any of the stores in Silver continent, unless you discover it in a dungeon or a cave, or by killing another player for the weapon," Melissa said.

"So I\'ll have to keep using rare weapons, I thought I\'ll switch to epic once I leave the Bronze continent" Alex pouted.

\'He\'s so cute, I hope he doesn\'t have a girlfriend, maybe I should ask him, no that would seem weird, then how should I ask him\'

"Epic weapons come with a new skill, after 10 levels players obtain new skills, but even if you are at level 22 and you get an epic weapon you get a new skill and when you get to level 30 you still get another skill"

"Now that I think about it, I\'m at level 22 and I still have one skill, why haven\'t I gotten the second skill?" Alex mumbled.

"Huh!! you are level 22, wait it hasn\'t been that long, ohh...I gave you a level-up potion, but you leveled up pretty fast, do you kill other players?"

"When they try to kill me, yes" Alex smiled.

"Most players don\'t come close to us when they see our stats, and we made a truce not to attack ourselves except when two players want to duel, except for Death"

"Death is the top 3 player right, so players are not afraid of him?"

"He\'s an assassin, and he can hide his name and level," Melissa said.

"Wait!! he can hide his name and level, and he\'s the only one who can do that?"

"Yes, I\'m sure it\'s because he\'s an assassin, none of the other top players can do the same"

"So I can also hide my name and level, that would be really great. Do you know what the new update is going to be that it\'s taking two whole days?"

"I don\'t know much, I was told they are raising the difficulty level, new beasts would be added and attacks would be more frequent that\'s what I heard," Melissa said.

"Difficulty level, more beasts, more attacks, and more XP," Alex said smiling.

"I hope you...oh my mum\'s staring at me" Melissa mumbled.

"I\'m sorry for keeping you, good night," Alex said.

"Bye..." Melissa shouted back as she ran towards her apartment.

"Hi mum, I\'m sorry," Melissa said with her head down.

"Who is that, is he your boyfriend?" Melissa\'s mum asked immediately.

"Huh!! he\'s not my boyfriend, his family lives in that apartment, so he came to spend his holiday here"

"I\'m surprised you are speaking to a boy, wait...do you know your face is open, did he see your face?"

"Yes, it\'s not the first time so he wasn\'t surprised, oh and he told me I look beautiful, I don\'t know if he meant it or he was just trying to make me feel better, but he\'s too handsome and..."

"You are talking too much again, slow down"

"Sorry Mum"

"So you like him right, I know you like him you don\'t need to tell me"

"Mum, don\'t try to do anything about it, I know he\'s handsome but that\'s not a reason to like someone," Melissa said with a smile.

"Your face tells me something different, let\'s go in, it\'s chilly out here" Melissa and her mum quickly went inside.

...

"I\'m home"

Alex said as he opened the door and walked in, to his surprise his dad was sitting at the dining table eating, Alex didn\'t know he spent that much time out and he didn\'t bother checking his phone, that\'s one of the effects of a snowy weather

"Dad...what\'s the time..." Alex paused as he looked at the time, the time was almost 10 pm.

"Alex, this is the first time I\'m seeing you after, how long were you gone?" Alex\'s dad asked.

Alex chuckled as he walked towards the dining table, "Hi Dad, it\'s been over a year"

"How have you been, I heard you bought a new game, Nova Online right?" his Dad smiled.

"How do you know the game, do you..." Alex stopped as he saw his mum\'s face.

"What\'s wrong, I thought..." Alex\'s dad stopped as he saw his wife\'s face, he immediately cleared his throat and focused on his dinner.

Alex\'s mum hates it when they speak when eating, even Alex\'s dad is afraid of his wife when it comes to eating, she was a good cook so he loves her cooking and never misses a chance to try out a new recipe his wife made.

After eating Ariana and Alisha cleared the dining table as always and Alex\'s mum went into the kitchen.

"So Dad I heard you have an amazing job now," Alex said.

"Yes, I work at a partner company of future companies, were you surprised I knew the name of that game?" Alex\'s dad smiled.

"Ohh, that\'s great," Alex said.

"We were also given a free helmet, I brought it back to give to you as a gift then I saw one in your room, you can\'t use two right?" Alex\'s dad asked.

"No you can\'t, but they are different quality, do you know the quality you were given?" Alex asked.

"Quality...I don\'t know but a colleague of mine said something about his son asking for the gold helmet and it would be a good gift, so maybe the one I was given was also gold"

"Gold..." Alex mumbled, and immediately he dashed upstairs.

"Don\'t injure yourself, is the helmet that important, though some players are been paid" Alex\'s dad mumbled.

Alex\'s dad walked upstairs after his son to see the helmet, he was scouted by one of his managers in his former company who switched companies, the pay was good even though he had to out in more hours so he accepted.

"Is the helmet gold?" Alex\'s dad asked as he walked in.

"It\'s Gold..." Alex mumbled.
