MMORPG: Rise of The Dungeon Master.

Grave opened the dungeon status, and there was nothing new. Monsters were eating and shitting here and there, living a carefree life.

"Fck!" Grave slapped his forehead. "Shit, I forget about the dungeon attack."

So much time passed, and no one discovered his dungeon.

Things changed from the past life, he was sure of that, but what lead to this change?

Grave sat on the ground and started thing about all the things.

First, that wolf war exploded the population of the city to an all-time high. More people mean they should have a high chance of finding his dungeon fast, but here, even after so much time, still no one discovered this dungeon.

"This was weird," Grave said to himself.

Then there was the fool's quest, but that event was for little time. 'mmm that event may cause a nightmare to some Nobel NPCs but that's all.' He thought to himself.

Then there was the panda paradise, but that thing also attracted many players to the city.

All the events he was involved in had attracted the people to the city, he was sure of that. Then why the hell no one discovered his dungeon?

In his last life, Abyss guild never discovered his dungeon. His joining the guild sure had some effect, but still, it was on a tiny scale.

Grave continued to rack his brain from different perspectives but still did able to figure out the reason. After so much thought, he was sure that an unknown party had led to this mega change.

He needed to know about that after all the changes in the city co-related to the danger his dungeon might be in. He needed to understand what the hell was going on.

'The first thing is to find the reason all the small team or casual players were not moving around the city. Like so many of them present in the city after the Panda and wolf incident. Then what stops them from moving around?' Grave rubbed his forehead after thinking about all this.

"Shit, I need to check the city situation first," Grave mumbled to himself. He checked his inventory. After making sure there was nothing there except for some sword and his bounded weapon, Grave got up.

<Yunyun transfers me to the city and contacts me if something happens in the dungeon>

Yunyun teleported next to him and said, "okk master, get ready"

Grave nodded his head.

Zap!!!

He opened his eyes and found himself in the Gazzi city. He looked around and walked to the outer slum area of the city.

The outer area was where most of the small guild and casual players were active. It also had most NPCs living there. As he entered the slum, he felt a tension there.

He moved around for some time, then walked into a bar and slumped there. Bars in the game were quite popular. The Alcohol in the game had the same effect on the people as in real life. Many real-life drunkie players love to drink in the game. They got to experience the same feeling without risking their liver and kidney.

The bar in the slum was one place where many players ramble about many useful things.

Grave moved to one corner of the bar and sat there. Some of the players notice him but then they did not cause any drama.

Grave ordered a beer mug. As he took one sip notification rang.

Ding!

"Shit, it's still the same in this life."

He opened the notification.

[poison is ineffective on the Poison body]

He sighed at that having a passive skill had a disadvantage that you could not deactivate it. Beer was ineffective on him. Grave wiped invisible tears from his cheek and continued to drink. At least he could still taste the beer.

While drinking, he looked around. The bar was full of players.

He knew the slum was the part where players would kill each other for a single silver coin. He had experienced all that in his last life. No one in the slum was rich. The moment you got the money you needed to spend that shit to strengthen yourself otherwise there 90% chance that someone would kill you hoping to get the money as the drop.

There was a rule that killing inside the city was prohibited, but still, there were many that kill here as the punishment here in the slum area was one-day confinement to the city prison with a few copper coins as a fine.

That same as dying, but in confinement, you lost little compared to dying.

Well, that was only in the slum area. If someone kills in the 2nd market area, then the confinement increased from 7 days to 30 days. Depending on who you attacked. Attacking a player results in 7 days but in the case of NPC, it depended on the influence of NPC in the city.

That was too much of a loss and then the player also had to pay silver coins as a fine.

Grave did not know about the core area punishment as he did not have a chance to experience that.

'Hehehe those days of killing young master in the city day had its own charm.' Grave smiled, thinking about the past.

He shook his head; he opened the description of the second semi-passive skill he had.

[Mana zone (passive): A one-meter invisible mana zone formed all around you. You can perceive all the senses within the mana zone from smell, sight, taste, feel, and sound.

(active): You can use mana to extend the zone size.

Caution: The more you exerted the size of the zone more mana it consumes per sec.

]

"It's time to work."

He expanded the mana zone to its max limit. It was 1 meter consuming no mana, but he expanded it to 2 meters which consumed 2 MP per second.

He closed all the senses in the zone and focused only on sound. There was so much nonsense going on, but one group talk grabbed his attention.

[Do you hear about that group?]

[shhh low voice]

[okk, but did you hear they target the Chiba squad this time?]

[Fck! It was 8 or 9th squad right.]

[Nope it's 15 if you count the mysterious squad's wipe.]

[Who are these people? Are they from a guild?]

[I don't think they were from Razors. Razors are pus#y. They are not that much aggressive, but I cannot say anything about the Abyss]

[Nah, those goons did not care about slums. ]

[What is the point of killing all the strongest squads of the slums?]

[I think there are doing this to weaken the slums]

[Smartass we know that. But what is the point in doing this and why??]

Silence. No one said anything.

After some time, one guy said.

[Guild war!]

[fck that's impossible. The city is in control of Abyss.]

[You heard about the main event, right? I think the person behind was making sure that Abyss could not recruit powerful people at the time of war.]

[But if what you are saying is true, then why is abyss quiet, and who is their opponent this time?]

[I don't think it is a big guild.]

[I spot some people from BLACK SAND but there do not involve in all this fighting]

[If it's Blacksand then Abyss is gone for sure.]

[No, it's the Blaze clan]

[What did you say?]

[I am not sure but there is a rumor that someone  from the Blaze clan was behind all the attacks]

[Ahh, did you guys hear about it?]

[Nope!]

[Nahhh!]

[So it was one person who is doing all that.]

[Not sure]

[So a new clan. I think abyss would easily be able to win against them.]

[Yeah, those gangsters are very strong.]

[But hey I think they might face some problem, but then again, the elite squad of Abyss was stronger, so I don't think it's a big deal]

[Yeah, let's enjoy the show, shall we? ]

[Cheers!]

…

Grave stopped drinking when he heard the Blaze Guild's name. 'Fck, what the hell do they want from this small town?'

Grave knew that about this guild. This was the guild that started its rise after one year in the game start and within 6 months, it became the top 5 in the entire 5th server.

Even the top 2 guild present in the Algoma kingdom did not come in the list of top 10 when it's come to the top guild present in the 5th server.

The main power to become one of the top 10 guilds on the 5th server was how much influence you had on 2 empires or multiple kingdoms.

The Blaze Guild was the only guild that was able to dethrone a top old guild and rise to the top 5 positions 1 year later in the game. And they did it in only 6 months of a small amount of time. dethrone

Many mega corporates supported the Blaze guild from the shadows. Not only that, there were many NPC that supported this guild even when the guild did not participate in the war.

It is all possible because of one person. The guild leader of the Blaze Guild… The person at the top of the class. A Unique class that only 1 person in the entire game could have.

He had a peak class of one of the priest-type class branches. The guild master of the Blaze guild was the CHAMPION OF THE SUN GOD.

Throughout the game currently, there were 6 god champions and the Blaze master was the champion of a high god. That only 2 other people had in the game as of now.
