A Returnee Wants To Play VRMMO 47 Meeting Up With Jane, Eddie And Elise

"B-but-" Roland tried to talk but he couldn't let out a sound before a large number of tears came out from his eyes as well.

"I know that you are feeling stressed about it," Nex crouched to be at eye-level with the kid and petted him fondly, "But I know what I am doing. Your Big Brother isn't a fool after all. I promise that I won't lose to that old man."

"You promise?" Roland asked, while trying to fight his tears from coming out again.

"Yes," Nex nodded while smiling warmly at the kid, "I still have to make sure you are strong enough to save your parents, don't I?"

"Big Brother!" and like a broken dam, upon hearing Nex' words, Roland couldn't hold back the tears anymore and hugged Nex while sobbing, without showing any signs of stopping soon.

"Let it all out now," Nex sighed and rubbed his back, to which Roland responded with louder crying, "It will be bad if you cry while your Big Brother is playing the bada.s.s later on."

They stayed like that for a minute or two until Nex suddenly heard a familiar and beautiful voice from behind him.

"You really are no-good, making a kid cry like that."

"Jane," Nex smiled wryly and let go of Roland, stood up and turned around to see a woman wearing long robes that covered her clothes and a mask and a young kid wearing warrior armor and a knight helmet that covered all of his head, "Do you have to say it like that? People are staring strangely at me now."

"Hmph!" Jane just snorted but before she managed to open her mouth, the young kid ran to Nex and tackled him with a hug.

"Big Brother Nex!"

"Hi there Eddie," Nex smiled and patted the kid shoulder, "Nice to finally meet you inside the game."

"Mhm!" Eddie responded excitedly and tried to rub his head on Nex only to have his helmet block him.

"Why are you covering yourselves like that?" Nex asked seeing that the two still had their faces masked, "You can show your face here, nothing will happen inside the city anyway."

"If something happens, you will deal with it," Jane sighed and removed the mask, revealing her stunning features, and then as if she suddenly remembered something she turned to Eddie and opened her mouth quickly, "Eddie, wait don't-"

"Here, Big Brother! I removed the helmet!"

"Oh?" Nex lifted his eyebrows and stared at the adorable pair of animal ears that were on Eddie's head, "You chose the Beastman race?"

"Yes! I heard it goes well with the warrior cla.s.s!"

"It does," Nex nodded with a smile and then turned his head to question Jane why she tried to stop Eddie, but upon seeing her goofy face and the blood that came out of her nose, he somewhat understood the situation.

"Jane," Nex spoke with a slightly loud voice, waking the bro-con up, "Do you know where Elise is?"

Realizing what she just looked like, Jane blushed in embarra.s.sment and nodded to Nex' question, "I spoke with her IRL(in real life) just a few minutes ago, she said she is about to reach the city and will be in the square in a short time."

"Aside from that," Jane changed the subject and stared at the little figure who hid behind Nex all of this time, "Won't you introduce us to your little friend?"

"Of course," Nex smiled and pushed Roland to stand in front of Jane and Eddie, "Roland, say h.e.l.lo, this is Jane and Eddie, they are my friends."

Roland stood in place fidgeting from shyness and only after a few moments, when he gathered enough courage, he bowed deeply at once.

"H-h.e.l.lo! M-my name is-"

"So cute!" upon seeing Roland, her eyes already became starry, and when he tried to introduce himself, Jane couldn't control herself anymore and took the adorable kid into her bosom, "Nex, where did you find this kid? I feel like I could cuddle with him all day!"

"I'm glad that you like him, but can you please let him breathe?" Nex smiled dryly, "I don't think he can hold on for much longer."

"Oh, sorry!" Jane quickly released Roland from her chest, enabling the red-faced kid to breathe again. Jane then held Roland's shoulders and smiled at him, "Nice to meet you, Roland! My name is Jane!"

"Ah…"

Never had Roland met such a beautiful lady, so when he saw Jane face smiling at him from up close, he couldn't do anything but blush all the way to his ears and make a vague sound, and only after a few tries, did he manage to shyly nod his head while avoiding eye contact.

"N-nice to meet you too."

"I can't take it! He's so adorable!" Jane couldn't hold herself back and hugged Roland once again while rubbing her cheek against his.

"Hey there-" Nex tried to stop her but before he could, Eddie stopped him while shaking his head with a sigh.

"It's futile, Big Bro," Eddie stared at the scene with eyes that told he saw it too many times, "Once she is like that you need to give her a few moments to satisfy herself because she won't let go until then. Why do you think I don't bring friends home?"

"...Because they get scared too much?"

"No," Eddie shook his head and then said with slightly dead eyes, "Because they start to like it at some point."

"Ah."

After a few moments of silence, Nex finally noticed that Roland had started to lose consciousness and quickly saved the poor boy despite the pouts and complaints of Jane. And after seeing that his eyes became clear again, Nex introduced Roland to Eddie.

"This is Eddie, he is Jane's little brother, he is about two years older than you."

Nex said with a smile and pushed Roland toward Eddie.

"Nice to meet you, Roland!" Eddie stretched his hand toward Roland with a smile.

"..." Roland stared at Eddie's palm with some anxiety and it seemed like he was afraid of giving his hand. Nex who watched from the side smiled and gave Roland another small push.

"You don't have to worry, Roland. Although he is in your age group, Eddie is in his First Awakening and he is a Beastman Warrior, you couldn't hurt him even if you used all of your strength!"

Hearing this, Roland took a deep breath and warily stretched his palm to meet Eddie's.

Being a smart kid, Eddie quickly realized what Roland worried about and without wasting any time grabbed Roland's palm and shook it with some strength.

"See how strong I am? And I see you are not so bad yourself! So what do you say, want to be friends with me?"

Roland felt the strength in Eddie's hand and was finally convinced, so with a wide smile, he held the latter's hand tightly and even grabbed it with his other hand.

"Yes!"

"Good!" Eddie nodded with a satisfied smile, "Then from now on, we are friends! I will call you Andy and since I am older you will call me Brother Ed okay?"

"Okay, Brother Ed!" Roland was joyful behind words, he finally has a friend around his age that he doesn't need fearing to hurt!

Nex smiled warmly at this scene and turned to Jane who watched with a similar gaze, "Jane, you have one amazing brother!"

"Of course," Jane pointed her nose upward proudly, "If you think that Eddie is just a perfectly sculpted, soul healing, sky brightening, worry extinguis.h.i.+ng, sacredly holy, adorable face, then you are wrong! There is nothing my little angel can't do!"

"I believe you," Nex sighed while feeling somewhat bitter for Eddie, 'He will need a LOT of help if he would want to leave home at some point.'

"Teacher!"

Suddenly hearing the familiar voice, Nex turned with a smile to the incoming Elise who ran toward him with an excited look on her face.

"Hi! Did something-" but before he managed to finish his words Elise ran behind him and hid behind his back with only her head out looking warily in the direction she just came from.

"You b*tch! How dare you run away when I am calling you!"

And soon enough an annoyed voice was heard and a handsome young man around twenty years old came out of the crowd with an ugly expression on his face, followed by a group of four young people who seemed to have similar arrogant demeanor as their leader. They all had high-ranking equipment and their general power level was around level 20. Clearly, they were top-cla.s.s players.

"Let me go already, Zac!" Elise snarled at the young man, "I told you already that I want to play the game with my teacher and friends, I don't care about your stupid guild and I certainly don't care about what you want!"

"You think you could just say no to me and play with your losers friends?" Zac snorted and jeered at Nex group, only to stop his gaze on Jane and stare at her l.u.s.tfully, although only her perfect face was shown, his experienced eye told him her figure was terrific as well!

"On second thought you will come here and bring your friend as well," he pointed at Jane with a commanding tone, "Such beauty would be wasted if she stayed there any longer. You two should be with me instead of wasting your time with those kids!"

"Zac! You-"

"Honey~ I told you it would be a bad idea to remove my mask~" before Elise managed to open her mouth on Zac's obscenity, Jane hugged Nex' hand closely and spoke to him in a coquettish tone, to everyone's shock, she then turned her head to Elise and winked at her, "Now look, not only does this little creep insult Little Sis Elise and call us losers, he also thinks he is actually worthy of me and Little Sis Elise! I think you should correct him and put him in his place, isn't that right, Little Elise?"

"Of course~" Elise, who already understood Jane's intentions hugged Nex' other arm and spoke in similar tone despite her clear red face and shyness, "Teach-Darling is much more handsome and powerful than this disgusting creep~. Darling should show him that he is not worthy to even talk to us!"

'Isn't that something you should show him,' Nex smiled wryly on the inside but still decided to play along. Releasing his hands from the girls' hugs he coiled his hands around each one and hugged them close to him while turning his expression into an arrogant and haughty one, looking like a perfect playboy.

"So you think you could just come here and try to mess with my little sweethearts? Quite a foolish decision."

Upon hearing the words "Little Sweethearts" Elise and Jane both blushed and become fl.u.s.tered. Elise lowered her head while trying to hide the smile on her face while Jane pinched the side of Nex' back and stared at him with a ferocious face that would be mistaken for something else for everyone aside from her and Nex, 'Don't get c.o.c.ky.'

"Who are you, b.a.s.t.a.r.d?" Zac furrowed his brows upon seeing this spectacle and stared at Nex with undisguised killing intent, "You think you can take women I called my own right in front of me? You have three seconds to kill yourself or your game character won't be the only one in danger!"

"It seems like you need some lessons in manners," Nex sighed and let go of the girls and walked to Zac group, but not before he petted Elise's head and gave Jane a pat on the b.u.t.t unnoticed by anyone but the two of them while whispering to her, "That pinch quite hurt."

"You-" Jane went completely red and stared at Nex furiously as if she was trying to make a hole in his head, that no-good b.a.s.t.a.r.d just molested her! But before she managed to speak, Nex was already right in front of Zac's group, pulling his wooden sword out.

"So, how do you want to get beaten?" Nex asked leisurely while spinning the sword in his hand, "Do notice that there are kids here, so I can't do anything too extreme."

"Pu! Haha!" Zac and his group started to laugh so much that tears almost came out, "Do you really think you can take care of me and my group with a beginner sword? How are you going to do it?"

*Bang!"

"Like that."

At the moment Zac finished his words, Nex disappeared from his place and appeared in front of Zac stabbing his sword at Zac's mouth in an instant. Being hit like that, Zac flew backward while teeth sprayed from his bleeding mouth and he collided into two people from his group, making them lose balance.

Seeing their leader being flung like that, the two subordinates that still stood properly, an archer and a thief quickly started to attack Nex, who stayed in place with a leisurely face. the thief blended into the shadows while charging at Nex, while the archer shot an arrow at him at lightning speed.

"I forgot about the low quality of the players," Nex sighed in disappointment upon seeing how Zac couldn't react at all to his "weak" attack. And while still having a depressed face, he moved at a speed that shouldn't be possible for someone with his stats and caught the arrow that came at him and, without any wasted moves or even looking, stabbed with it towards his side.

"Argh!"

A cry of pain was heard as the thief appeared from the shadows, with the arrow stuck into his dagger-wielding arm, causing him to let go of his weapon.

"I'll take that," Nex s.n.a.t.c.hed the falling dagger and kicked the thief's leg, causing him to easily fall. Then, he waved his sword twice and destroyed another two arrows that came at him, and before the archer managed to shoot another one, he threw the dagger at him, causing it to stab deeply into the archer's thigh.

"Ahh!"

"I'll kill you!" Zac's frantic voice was suddenly heard and the young man appeared, slas.h.i.+ng his saber down at Nex while activating the strongest skill he had. While he was doing that, the mage and the priest that fell earlier stood back up and began to chant.

'[Martial Secret: Diamond Hand]'

"Pathetic," Nex muttered and effortlessly caught Zac attack with his hand that suddenly s.h.i.+ned as if it was made from gems.

"Next time I see you treat any of us with disrespect, especially Elise and Jane," Nex stared at the terrified Zac with a completely cold face as he lifted him by his neck, "I will guarantee that not a single part of your body will stay whole."

He then smashed Zac on the ground so hard that the tiles cracked and then turned his head to the mage and the priest, who were about to finish their chants any moment as a magic circle appeared above both of them.

'2X[Mana Art: Weak Mana Shot]'

Two laser-like beams shot from Nex' index and third fingers, instantly hitting the mage and the priest in the middle of their throats and burning the skin and muscles there such that although they didn't die, their spells got canceled and they fell to the ground while holding their throats in pain.

Everyone in the surroundings watched Nex in shock and admiration as he took care of the group without any noticeable effort. But suddenly, a moment after the fight finished, a stern voice was heard as a group of guards appeared.

"Who dares to fight in the city!"

At this situation, Nex very calmly waved his hand in the air as if he wanted everyone to see him.

"Me. I am the one who has beaten the c.r.a.p out of those people."
