Villain Ch 555. Ghost or Mummy?
Vivian\'s confusion was palpable as she furrowed her brow. "They are not the same?" she asked, a hint of frustration in her voice. The nuances of the situation seemed to elude her.
Jane leaned in and responded, "It should be the same, right? Same character, same persona, just a different spin on the story."
Allen, sensing the need to clarify, chimed in, "Well, this is kinda different. I mean, I\'ve read stories with characters named Allen before, but those are just namesakes. This one—it\'s like someone\'s taken my persona and given it a life of its own. It\'s not just sharing a name; it\'s referring to me directly."
Vivian, still grappling with the concept, tilted her head in confusion. "So, like, your character but in a parallel universe written by someone else?" she queried, attempting to grasp the unique nature of the situation.
"Exactly!" Jane affirmed, nodding. "It\'s like Allen\'s alternate universe penned by a fan. Or a few fans, in this case."
Allen, realizing the potential mix of ego boosts and awkward encounters, explained his hesitation. "This is the first time I\'m gonna read something where someone else wrote about my character. It\'s a bit like stepping into someone else\'s version of me. Could be great, could be cringe-worthy, who knows? But either way, I\'d rather mentally prepare myself for whatever scenes I\'m about to dive into," he admitted with a wry smile.
Jane, with a twinkle in her eye, added, "He\'s worried someone might make him do embarrassing things in these stories."
Allen shot her a mock glare. "Exactly! I can\'t have my persona doing things I wouldn\'t do in a million years."
"Fair enough," Vivian shrugged, a casual acceptance in her tone as she shifted gears, ready to move on from the previous discussion.
Allen seized the opportunity to redirect their attention. "Shall we focus on our next hunt? I\'m thinking about clearing the last death pit or maybe venturing into a new map," he suggested, injecting a sense of excitement into the conversation.
Shea leaned in, reflecting the intrigue in her voice. "New map? Explain where you mean," she prompted, the prospect of uncharted territories sparking her interest.
With a confident sweep of his virtual gaze, Allen declared, "The emperor\'s tomb."
Larissa chimed in with a hint of excitement, "Oh, that\'s interesting."
Allen nodded, feeding off their collective enthusiasm. "Exactly. It\'s rumored to be filled with rare loot and challenging adversaries. Plus, the ambiance is supposed to be epic."
"Oh, that\'s interesting," Larissa exclaimed, reflecting the genuine intrigue in her voice. The prospect of a new, uncharted dungeon in the expansive world of Hell\'s Gate was like a siren\'s call for them.
Vivian, turning to Larissa, couldn\'t help but share her curiosity. "Have you heard of it?" she inquired, seeking any nugget of information that might add to their knowledge.
Larissa, shaking her head from side to side, admitted, "Not yet. This emperor\'s tomb is news to me."
Zoe joined the conversation with a thoughtful frown. "As far as I remember, it was also an unexplored dungeon. So I didn\'t see any information about it on the forums," she analyzed.
"Exactly! That\'s why I\'m interested," Allen chimed in, his excitement evident in his voice.
Zoe, determined to contribute, added, "It could be a high-risk, high-reward situation. We need to be prepared for the unexpected."
Vivian, nodding in agreement, said, "True. The thrill of the unknown is what makes it exciting. "
"Are we going to fight another group of ghosts there?" Alice asked with a cringe, her virtual expression mirroring a mix of dread and skepticism.
"Or mummy?" Vivian added, her cringe echoing Alice\'s sentiment.
Allen, sensing their concerns, chimed in with a hint of assurance. "The tomb will have an eastern theme," he explained, offering a small insight into what they might encounter.
"So, there\'s no mummy?" Vivian sought clarification, making sure they wouldn\'t be facing the classic horror movie trope.
"Eastern also has their own mummy, ya know. With armor and fancy clothes," Jane interjected with a mischievous grin, bringing a touch of humor to the conversation. Her attempt to playfully tease Vivian seemed to lighten the mood.
"She\'s got a point," Shea agreed, nodding in acknowledgment of the wisdom Jane had just dropped.
Allen turned to the group with a thoughtful expression. "So, which one will you choose? I\'m okay with both," he prompted, seeking their input and keeping the decision-making process collaborative.
Shea spoke up with a sense of practicality. "That interesting tomb. We left the Death Pit at the very end of the level, right? At least we need time to get in there. Not to mention the crazy ghost monsters and such," she explained, laying out a logical case for their choice.
"I agree with that too!" Jane chimed in, her enthusiasm was evident.
"But if we go to the tomb, we might meet other ghost-type monsters," Bella analyzed, her virtual avatar reflecting a hint of concern.
"Or mummy," Vivian added, her voice carrying a tinge of skepticism.
Bella responded with a flat stare. "It\'s the same," she asserted, attempting to clarify the point.
"No. Mummy is undead. It has physical bodies," Jane disagreed, interjecting to provide a bit of supernatural education to the group. "Ghosts are ethereal, but mummies are more like, well, preserved corpses wrapped in bandages or clothes or armor. They\'re technically undead, but they\'ve got a physical form."
Bella, now nodding in understanding, admitted, "Okay, that makes sense."
Jane, with a mischievous glint in her eye, teased, "Also we might encounter a variety pack of supernatural beings. We could have ghosts, mummies, and who knows what else waiting for us."
Allen nodded in agreement. "Alright then, the emperor\'s tomb it is. We\'ll prepare, strategize, and make sure we\'re ready for whatever comes our way," he declared, his avatar reflecting a mix of excitement and determination.
The group, taking in this new tidbit of information, exchanged glances. The excitement for their upcoming adventure now tinged with the anticipation of the unknown, they began brainstorming strategies and discussing how best to prepare for the potential challenges that awaited them in the mysterious emperor\'s tomb.
