Two years later…

Sky: Uhhh Ragna muffles?

Cindell: He doesn't seem to be waking up.

Seiiki: Maybe he's just really tired –giggles-

Seiiki poked at Ragna's unconscious body.

Cindell: It's been two years Seiiki-chan.

Seiiki: Ohh that does seem to be a very long time.

Sky: WAIT! IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS MUFFLES!?

Cindell: Well that's the last time the previous chapter was written till now so yeah.

Seiiki: Ah that makes sense!

Sky: NO IT DOESN'T! AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY CHAPTER MUFFLES!?

Cindell: Perhaps I've said too much never mind.

Sky: OI! YOU CAN'T JUST DODGE THE QUESTION LIKE THAT MUFFLES!

Seiiki: Shouldn't we try finding a way to wake him up?

Cindell: I suppose you're right, we can't really go anywhere without him.

Sky: Wait why not muffles?

Cindell: Cause he's the main protagonist.

Seiiki: Ah that makes sense!

Sky: WAIT WHAT?! NO!? MAIN PROTAGONIST?! WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT MUFFLES?!

Cindell: Don't worry about it.

Sky: OI! MUFFLES!

Seiiki: Hmmm but how are we gonna wake Ragna up?

Cindell: Good question.

Sky: ARE YOU TWO JUST GOING TO IGNORE ME THE ENTIRE TIME MUFFLES?!

Seiiki: Oh maybe I just need to yell his name really loud.

Cindell: I suppose it's worth a shot.

Sky: LIKE HELL IT IS MUFFLE!

Seiiki began yelling.

Seiiki: WAKE UP RAGNAAAAAAAAA!

Ragna's body remained still.

Cindell: Ragna if you don't wake up I'm going to burn all your Yuri posters.

Ragna still remained unmoved.

Cindell: Shoot. I thought that'd wake up him for sure.

Sky: WHAT KIND OF MONSTER ARE YOU MUFFLES?!

Seiiki yelled once again but this time with a server megaphone right next to his ear.

Seiiki: RAGNAAAAA ! WAKE UPPPPPPPPPPPPP PLEASEEEEE!

Sky: OI! ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE HIM GO DEAF MUFFLES?!

Megaphone user #1: HEY QUIT SPAMMING MEGAPHONE CHAT! SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO SELL THINGS YOU KNOW! "SForce whisper me!"

Seiiki: Oh sorry…

Megaphone user #2: YEAH! Also whisper dingdonger! 20th whisper gets 100m for free!

Megaphone user #3: YO! QUIT SPEWIN LIES ON MEGAPHONE!

Megaphone user #3: AND EVERYONE STOP WHISPERING ME!

Megaphone user #4: HEY ASSHOLES QUIT SPAMMIN! IM TRYING TO SELL MY VALOR FOR 20M HERE!

Megaphone user #5: Bruh, ain't nobody gonna buy that shit for 20m.

Megaphone user #4: YO MOM AIN'T WORTH 20M BITCH!

Megaphone user #5: WHAT DID YOU SAY!? NO ONE TALKS ABOUT MY MOMMY THAT WAY!

Megaphone user#4: BRING IT! PVP ARENA CH. 21 RIGHT NOW!

Megaphone user#5: I'LL FKIN BLAZE YOU 420 SWAG NOOB!

Megaphone user #6: I like dog biscuits! Woof! Woof!

Sky: THEY ALL STARTED SPAMMING ANYWAY MUFFLES!

Cindell: Well yelling doesn't seem to be working.

Seiiki: Yeah, hmm maybe we could try pouring something on him?

Cindell: That doesn't seem like a bad idea.

Seiiki: How about we try some water!

Cindell: Sure.

Cindell and Seiiki then proceeded to pour a bucket of ice cold water about the size of Titan onto Ragna's body.

Sky: OI! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING MUFFLES?!

Ragna's body still remained unconscious and exactly where it was before.

Seiiki: Aww it didn't work.

Cindell: Drats.

Sky: ARE YOU GUYS TRYING TO DROWN HIM MUFFLES!?

Seiiki: Hmmm if something cold didn't work maybe something hot will!

Cindell: Okay.

Cindell and Seiiki then proceeded to cast meteor shower on Ragna's body.

Sky: WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU GUYS DOING?! AH HOT HOT HOT HOT MUFFLES!

Despite the heat Ragna's body seemed completely still intact with only him being covered in sot.

Seiiki: Uhhhh! He still didn't wake up!

Cindell: Well at least he's dry now.

Sky: ARE YOU TWO TRYING TO BURN HIM ALIVE MUFFLES?!

Seiiki: Hmmm oh! Maybe we should try cooking something!

Cindell: Alright.

Sky: YOU TWO ALMOST TURNED HIM INTO A CRISP ALREADY MUFFLES!

Seiiki: I'll make something so delicious he'll have to wake up!

Cindell: Sounds lovely.

Sky: ARE YOU TWO EVEN LISTENING MUFFLES!?

Cindell and Seiiki began cooking a stew. The aroma began to fill the air throughout Rocheste.

Seiiki: Ahhhh~ It smells divine!

Cindell: Indeed it does.

Suddenly from around the corner emerged a couple.

Tabori: Something smells delicious!

Ayimai: Didn't you just eat?

Tabori: Hey! Hey! A man's gotta eat to be big and strong ya know!

The two approached the group.

Tabori: Hey what cha guys cookin over here!

Seiiki: Oh hey Tabby and Ayimai-chan! I'm making my authentic homemade stew!

Tabori: It smells awesome! Can we have some?

Seiiki: Sure!

Cindell: It's been awhile Ayimai-chan. Is Lina-san doing well?

Ayimai: Despite her complaining about trying to find a man 24/7 I suppose she's doing fine.

Sky: WAIT! WHO THE HECK ARE THESE GUYS?! AND WHO'S ONEE- SAN MUFFLES?!

Tabori: Looks like some scrub didn't read the story patch notes.

Cindell: Lina is our older sister Sky.

Seiiki: Yeah Sky! Tabby and Ayimai are your older sisters close friends!

Sky: SINCE WHEN MUFFLES!?

Ayimai: Since this patch.

Tabori: She's also a total babe. NO ONE! WILL TAKE LINA FROM ME!

Ayimai: Tabby please…

Sky: PATCH?! OLDER SISTER!? WHAT ARE YOU GUYS ALL TALKING ABOUT MUFFLES?!

Seiiki: Now Now! Let's all eat while it's still fresh!

Cindell: We need a table for all the bowls and pot though.

Seiiki: Shoot you're right.

Tabori: Why don't we use that black one over there?

Ayimai: That could work.

The four then proceeded to use Ragna as a table.

Tabori: AND IT'S AS EASY AS THAT!

Sky: OI! THAT'S A PERSON MUFFLES!

Seiiki: How's the stew everyone?

Cindell: Delicious.

Ayimai: Pretty good.

Tabori: FANTASTIC! OH THE VINDICTUS GODS HAVE BLESSED WITH ME SOMETHING NO BUFF COULD POSSIBLY REPLACE!

Seiiki: Yay!

Sky: ARE YOU GUYS LISTENING MUFFLES?!

While they ate they exclaimed the situation to Tabori and Ayimai.

Tabori: Oh? So you're trying to wake up your friend Ragna?

Seiiki: Yeah we've been trying to wake up him for quite awhile now.

Ayimai: Sounds like a pain. Why not just leave him?

Cindell: We would but he's kinda the main protagonist.

Ayimai: Aww that sucks.

Sky: AGAIN WITH THE MAIN PROTAGONIST THING MUFFLES?!

Tabori: I don't believe ya, he can't possibly be that heavy of a sleeper.

Tabori then blatantly dropped a scoop of his steaming hot stew onto Ragna's face.

Sky: OI! MUFFLES!

Seiiki: Tabby!

Tabori: Huh?

Seiiki: Don't waste food!

Tabori: Shit you're right, sorry.

Sky: I THINK BOTH OF YOU ARE MISSING THE REAL ISSUE MUFFLES!

The group then finally finished eating and continued to find a solution.

Cindell: We already tried using ice cold water and meteor shower to wake him up but neither worked.

Ayimai: Hmm…

Ayimai began examining Ragna with her hand on her chin.

Ayimai: This looks pretty bad.

Seiiki: What is it Ayimai-chan?

Ayimai: Judging from his posture and his body position.

Tabori: Uh huh.

Ayimai: This is a case of…

Sky: A case of what muffles?

Ayimai then turned to the group in a serious tone.

Ayimai: Rank 6 Meditation.

Cindell: Oh dear.

Seiiki: That's terrible!

Tabori: What kind of noob puts AP into meditation?! Scrub must not even play this game.

Sky: MEDITATION?! AP?! GAME !? WHAT ARE YOU ALL EVEN TALKING ABOUT MUFFLES?!

Ayimai: I've seen this case plenty of times during the beta. It's not a pretty sight.

Cindell: Sounds pretty serious.

Seiiki: This is horrible! What do we do?!

Sky: SINCE WHEN IS MEDITATING CONSIDERED A CONDITION MUFFLES?!

Tabori: Heh, stand aside kiddies let old Tabby handle this.

Cindell and Seiiki stepped aside as Tabori unsheathed his great sword. He slowly approached Ragna's unconscious body. However, Ayimai stopped him.

Ayimai: Wait Tabby, you're not going to-

Tabori interrupted Ayimai before she could finish.

Tabori: Somebody's gotta do it and im willin to.

Ayimai: It's too risky Tabby!

Tabori: We won't know until we try!

Sky: OI! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO MUFFLES?!

Ayimai stood hesitantly in front of Tabori.

Ayimai: Is there no other way…?

Tabori: If there was I would have token it a long time ago Ayimai…

After a few moments Ayimai finally stood aside. As Tabori walked passed her she whispered to him.

Ayimai: You better come back alive you hear me?

Tabori smiled.

Tabori: It's a promise.

Sky: OI! ARE YOU LISTENING MUFFLES?!

Tabori approached Ragna's unconscious body.

Tabori: Alright! Nap times over kiddo!

Tabori then took a stance with his sword in front of him. He began glowing with light.

Tabori: ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Cindell: So the legends are true…

Seiiki: It can't be…

Ayimai: Yes. This skill is incredibly powerful but also very life threatening.

Sky: WHAT IS HE DOING MUFFLES?!

Tabori: RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Tabori then became engulfed in light and was fully transformed into a shining paladin. His radiance beamed throughout Rocheste

Cindell: Amazing…

Seiiki: So bright…

Ayimai: Yes this technique is…

Sky: MY EYES! I CAN'T SEE MUFFLES!

Tabori then leaped into the air passing the clouds.

Ayimai: Known as the…

Tabori then shouted in the sky.

Tabori: SUPER NINJA TURLE ULTRA DELUXE!

Tabori then came crashing down with his sword onto Ragna's body. There was a great explosion of light that covered the entire field. After a few moments the light faded and everything was visible again.

Cindell: What an incredible power…

Seiiki: Wahhhhh I'm still a little dizzy from the light.

Ayimai: Only the chosen may perform such a technique.

Sky: WHAT KIND OF TECHNIQUE WAS THAT MUFFLES?!

However even after such a performance of strength Ragna still remained unmoved.

Seiiki: He's still unsconcious…

Cindell: Uhh….

Ayimai began running towards Ragna.

Ayimai: Oh no…

Sky: YOU CANT BE SERIOUS MUFFLES?!

Ayimai: TABBY!

Ayimai yelled as she was actually running towards Tabori who was on the ground with all his armor shattered. She picked up his head gently from the ground.

Tabori: Ayimai.. –cough- is that you…

Tabori spoke weakly.

Ayimai: You idiot! I told you it was too risky!

Tabori: Heh, Life's all about taking risks… how else would we get +15s…

Tears began to well up in Ayimai's eyes.

Ayimai: You idiot…. –sniff- it's all RNG….

Tabori: Haha, you're right…how could I have forgotten something so important…

Tabori began coughing out blood.

Ayimai: Tabby!

Tabori: ..Ayimai….

Ayimai: What..?

Tabori: Please tell Lina….

Tabori began coughing out more blood.

Tabori: That I….

His eyes began to close slowly as he spoke his last words.

Tabori: Im swiggity swooty… and I am coming…. –cough-… for that booty….

At that moment Tabori passed out.

Ayimai: TABBYYYYYYYYYY!

Tears began forming into Seiiki's eyes.

Seiiki: Tabby-kun….

Cindell: He did everything he could…

Sky: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ?! HE LITERALLY JUMPED INTO THE AIR AND BLEW HIMSELF UP MUFFLES!

However shortly after Ayimai used a phoenix feather and revived Tabori.

Sky: ARE YOU KIDDING ME MUFFLES!?

Tabori: Man didn't even budge huh? That guy must be literally knocked out.

Cindell: Yeah we weren't kidding…

Seiiki: Mhm.

Ayimai: Honestly I think you guys should just change the main protagonist.

Cindell: Hmm, that probably would be for the best.

Seiiki: Yeah we probably should have done that from the start –sigh-

Tabori: The scrub maxed meditation he doesn't even deserve to be a player.

Sky: WHAT THE HECK IS A PLAYER MUFFLES?!

Ayimai: Well then if that's the case let me just file a request to nexon.

Cindell: For what?

Ayimai: To have his character deleted.

Seiiki: Ah that makes sense!

Tabori: Hopefully the bastards actually respond and do their job for once.

Ayimai: I hope so as well.

Sky: NEXON!? DELETING?! WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT MUFFLES?!

Suddenly a pinging sound came from Ragna's location.

Ayimai: Oh looks like they actually did it.

In that moment Ragna's body began to float from the ground. Suddenly a spirit emerged from his body.

Sky: IT'S A GHOST MUFFLES!

Ragna: Woah! Hey! What the hell is going on?!

Ayimai: You're being erased from this world I'm afraid.

Ragna: What?! Why!?

Tabori: Pff, you obviously don't know how to play this game that's why.

Ragna: What are you talking about?! I know how to play this game!

Cindell: Ragna…

Cindell slowly approached Ragna's spirit.

Cindell: Your mercenary abandoned you a long time ago.

Ragna: My mercenary…?

Seiiki: His computer couldn't handle the source engine and game itself so he quit.

Ragna: He quit…?

Cindell: It means he doesn't play this game anymore Ragna…

Ragna: Oh…

Cindell: Which in turn means…

Sky: RAGNA PLEASE DON'T TELL ME YOU UNDERSTAND ALL THIS MUFFLES!

Ragna: I see…

Ragna looked at himself noticing that he was fading from the reality of this world.

Ragna: So this is goodbye then?

Cindell and Seiiki nodded.

Sky: OI! ARE YOU LISTENING MUFFLES?!

Ragna: Well if that's the case… it's been a blast guys…

Cindell: Indeed it has.

Seiiki: For sure!

Ragna's existence was only short moments away from being completely erased.

Cindell: Farewell Ragna.

Seiiki: Bye Ragnaaaaaaa!

Ragna smiled brightly.

Ragna: Thanks guys… for everything.

As Ragna spoke his last words he completely disappeared.

Sky: WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED MUFFLES?!

Tabori: The scrubs gone duh.

Sky: WHAT DO YOU MEAN GONE MUFFLES?!

Ayimai: He's been erased from this world. At least… in the next seven days or so…

Sky: WHAT DO YOU MEAN IN THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS OR SO MUFFLES?!

Cindell: Nexon's character deletion policy.

Seiiki: Yeah! It takes about seven days to delete a character.

Tabori: It's quite a pain honestly with the already limited character slots.

Ayimai: I agree it's just another way for us to purchase premium character slots.

Sky: WHAT ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT MUFFLES?!

Ayimai: Anyhow, the only issue now is you guys need to decide who's going to be the main protagonist now.

Sky: IS ANYONE GOING TO ANSWER ME MUFFLES?!

Cindell: Ah I suppose you're right.

Tabori: You guys should have a vote. As much as I'd probably be the best main character ever I'll sit out on this one for ya.

Seiiki: A vote huh? Hmmm then I vote for Cindy!

Cindell: Me?

Ayimai: Alright any objections? No? Okay. Looks like Cindell is our new main protagonist. Congrats.

Sky: YOU CAN'T JUST SETTLE IT LIKE THAT MUFFLES!

Tabori: Well you know I'd be the main character but I'm just too good for this story.

Ayimai: Tabby please…

Seiiki: Well you're the main character now Cindy!

Cindell: I guess so.

Ayimai: Well since you're the main character now you can actually move on from this scene.

Cindell: Indeed.

Sky: WAIT! THEN HOW DID YOU GUYS MOVE INTO THIS SCENE MUFFLE?!

Tabori: Well were side characters duh, we get to do whatever we want off screen.

Seiiki: Ah that makes sense!

Sky: NO IT DOESN'T MUFFLES!

Ayimai: So what are you guys gonna do now?

Cindell: Hmm well I guess I could go visit Lina. I haven't seen her in quite awhile. Let alone this patch.

Tabori: We'll come along too in that case. I can't have you kids stealing my woman.

Seiiki: Sure! The more the merrier!

Ayimai: Alright, I guess we'll all head back to Colhen.

Cindell: Very well then.

Sky: I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ANYMORE MUFFLES!

End.
