Chapter 92
Aurora was insisting on going upstairs, but Aria wasn’t letting her go.
"Why are you stopping me?!" Aurora asked with an annoyed tone.
"Why are you being so clingy to Zach?!" Aria replied in the same tone.
"You are the one who told me to make moves on him before someone steals him from me." Aurora shrugged her shoulders at Aria and said, "That’s what I am doing."
"If you don’t give him some space, then he will find it annoying," Aria uttered. "He might start ignoring you, and it can turn into hatred."
Aurora turned to Aria and uttered, "Just admit that you are jealous of me."
"What do you mean?" Aria asked with a scoff.
Aurora furrowed her brows at Aria and said, "Did you truly think I haven’t noticed how you glare at me when I get close to Zach?"
Aria raised her brows in confusion and asked, "What do you... mean? I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Oh, please!" Aria rolled her eyes and grunted, "Do you think I am a fool not to notice it?"
"Notice what?" Aria asked with a puzzled look on her face.
Aurora squinted her eyes and said, "You are really going to make me say it?"
"Say what, though? Can you please explain in simple words without making it more complicated?"
"Argh!" Aurora groaned and said, "I know you love Zach."
"What?!" Aria scoffed and exclaimed at the same time. "What in the world are you talking about?"
Aurora bit her lips and said, "Your personality and behavior suddenly changed after I saw Zach leaving your room that night."
"Well... that..." Aria started averting her gaze and avoided eye contact with Aurora.
’It’s all because of Zach that I am getting into this mess! Seriously! Me, and love someone?! That’s preposterous!’
"What’s wrong?" Aurora asked in a haughty tone. "Why are you speechless? Did I hit the mark?"
’Screw it! I don’t care anymore. I will tell her everything before this gets any more complicated,’ Aria decided.
"No, you are wrong. I am—"
BANG! BOOM!
Aurora and Aria looked upstairs with dozens of other players eating in the tavern.
"What was that?" Everyone started chattering.
Aria and Aurora glanced at each other and dashed upstairs. The other players and the NPCs present there also followed them.
When they reached upstairs, they saw the last room in the hallway was on fire.
Aurora immediately rushed to the room, But Aria outran her and reached before Aurora.
She covered her mouth after entering the room, and so did Aurora. However, the reason was different.
Aria covered her mouth because she couldn’t bear the stench of the blood, and Aurora did it because of the shock and disgust.
They could see everything because the walls and roof of the room were missing. Seemingly, the loud bang noise was the cause of it.
Half of the room was filled with dead bodies of girls. They were naked, and each of them had missing body parts. Some bodies were cut open, while others were brutally ripped apart with force.
"What in the..." Aria unknowingly walked forward when her feet hit something.
Aria and Aurora looked down to see the severed head of the maid rolling on the floor. It was the head of the maid who Zach followed upstairs.
Aurora jolted and hugged Aria in fear. She turned her face to the side and closed her eyes before saying, "Please take me out of this room."
"Yeah..." Aria took Aurora out of the room with an anxious look on her face.
At the same time, the third maid entered the room and yelled on top of her lungs. She dropped to her knees and started wailing.
After taking Aurora out of the room, Aria approached the maid and asked, "Do you know any of them?"
Of course, the maid knew her fellow two maids, but Aria didn’t know what else to ask to comfort the maid.
The maid nodded and said, "They are all the female NPCs that went missing."
"Why didn’t you..." Aria changed her question and asked, "Were you aware of this?"
The maid nodded and said, "All the maids who entered this room never came back. We were suspicious, but we couldn’t do anything. We had no access to the player’s room because it was prohibited. And the player never came out of his room. He hadn’t even paid the rent yet, but we were unable to access the room. That’s how this world is designed."
Aria glanced around the room and thought, ’No matter how you look at it, all the girls were cruelly r*ped and brutally tortured until they died.’
’But... where did Zach go? He must be with that player, but...’ Aurora trembled in fear and muttered, "I have a bad feeling about this."

.
A while ago when Aria and Aurora were arguing downstairs.
Zach closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then suddenly, his gloves began to shine in red color, as though it was fire, but without flames.
The player hiding in the room dashed at Zach with an ax in his hand and tried to attack him, but he was sent flying by an unknown force.
The red color from the gloves started aggravating as it began to emit sparkle-like flames.
The player got up and fired magic attacks on Zach as he yelled, "You shouldn’t have come here!"
"You shouldn’t have been born..." Zach muttered in a low voice.
The player once again dashed at Zach, but suddenly, the walls and the roof of the room were sent flying with the explosion. And Zach and the player were nowhere to be seen.
Soon, Aria and Aurora entered the room and saw the bizarre scene that left them speechless.
Aria looked up in the sky and saw a shooting star that was falling in the direction of the church.
"..." Aria stepped back and stumbled on her feet after seeing that.
’That’s... the wrath of Phoenix...’
