MONSTER MMORPG: Mayhem Online

118 Chapter 0118

After sharing contacts with the others, I started looking for my room.

[Diamond Room | 11200 | A]

My room was on the 112th floor, it was also considered a VIP area since only top players were allocated rooms above platinum rank.

It was easy to find.

Tapping the card on the glass lock, the door clicked open.

What are the chances I'd run into a beautiful girl changing inside the room?

Well, very low chances. That's why nothing like that happened. The room was empty.

Seems like my roommate hasn't come yet.

I was honestly a bit disappointed for not running into a naked girl. I guess some tropes weren't true after all.

"Ahem."

The room was large, to say the least. Two people, heck 20 people can adjust in it and sleep comfortably if need be. There were just two large beds placed on the opposite sides. Two recliner sofas and a table in the middle.

On one side of the room, there were two brand new VR Capsules placed.

Overall, the room looked luxurious, especially with the open view of the whole New York City from one side of the glass wall.

If one stood near the end, they'd feel as if they were flying on top of New York.

There were even two separate wardrobes for both the players who'd stay here, along with essentials and luxurious stuff like high-end perfumes.

'They really did go all out.'

I didn't know if the others would receive the same treatment, but I wasn't complaining as long as I received it.

'Let's take a bath.'

I suddenly got an urge to take a bath again, even though I had already taken one when I was flying to New York.

Maybe it was due to the high end bathroom that I just couldn't wait to hop in.

The bathtub was large enough for two people to comfortably lie down and relax in it.

I set the water temperature and stripped myself naked, hopping in the bathtub.

"Ah!"

This was life.

I'd pay any amount of money to receive this kind of luxury.

Bathing in a bathtub with free water filled to the brim was a luxury that a common man of this age could never afford.

Unknown to me, my eyelids slowly started getting heavy. And before I knew it, I had fallen asleep in a bathtub filled with water.

***

The sleeping Flynn did not realise the phenomenon that was currently surrounding him. The tap automatically turned on, and blue coloured water replaced the existing water of the bathtub.

Slowly, the blue in the water started diminishing, as if getting sucked into Flynn's body. After a while, what was left in the bathtub was the normal, clear transparent water.

***

My vision was all hazy as I slowly opened my eyelids.

Did I fall asleep?

—-Squelch! Drip! Drip!

As my head started getting clear, I realised the heavy feeling around my body. I was submerged in water.

I was inside the bathtub to be specific.

'Did I just take a nap in the bathtub?'

I couldn't help but laugh bitterly. I really hope whoever my roommate was, he or she wasn't here yet. What would they even think of me otherwise.

As I tried to get out of the water, my vision suddenly spun like a wheel and I slipped back into the bathtub.

I unconsciously held my head, belatedly feeling the huge headache that I was having.

'Fuck, now I know why humans weren't designed to sleep in water.'

I held a corner of the bathtub and slowly got up, my head feeling as heavy as a brick.

I closed my eyes and shook my head out of instinct, to shake off the weird heavy feeling, but seemed to have miserably failed at that.

Somehow walking near the wash basin, I turned on the tap and put my head below it to wash my whole head, a habit that I have had ever since I could remember. It was like a defence mechanism that helped me with my random headaches.

And it seemed to be working.

The cold water hitting the back of my head and travelling to my spine, bringing in a chilling feeling along the way, succeeded in lessening the headache as clarity came back to me slowly.

I slowly retrieved my head back, aware that the last time I had hit it on the tap and it hurt like hell.

The tap water was still running, as I caught a handful of water and splashed it on my face, my eyes to be accurate.

My eyes unconsciously landed on the mirror in front of me and saw something which shocked the shit out of me.

There was a blue coloured mark on the centre of my eye, a weird symbol that I could distinguish. It was there just for a split second, and then it disappeared.

'Holy fuck, I thought I was just hallucinating the last time.'

I wasn't naive enough to mistake the same thing for hallucination twice. But that also was scary, as I wanted it to be nothing more than a hallucination.

'Am I finally going crazy? About damn time.'

My head started thinking up weird stuff, as I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist.

I was still having a terrible headache though, so I walked out while clutching my head with my right hand.

"Oh my, oh my."

I suddenly heard a seductive female voice, and my eyes moved towards the direction of the voice.

A beautiful pink-haired, sharp-eyed woman was sitting on the bed opposite to mine. She seemed to be sorting out her luggage when she saw me and put her hand on her lips, having a look of amazement.

She had an overall mature aura mixed with somewhat of a …. milfy aura, looking to be in her early thirties.

The most notable part of her body was her two giant sin-inducing melons.

'Fuck, my headache is gone.'

I didn't even realise before my headache had completely vanished, as a pleasant fragrance entered my nostrils.

"Are you alright?''

The mature woman blinked twice as she asked, making me realise that I was staring too intently at her. Not wanting to seem like a flustered kid, I just nodded my head lightly as I walked towards my wardrobe and took out a fresh pair of clothes.

Without any shame in the world, I changed right in front of her, of course, trying my best to hide what should be hidden.

I wore a loose black trouser and a slim fit white t-shirt. Then I went in front of the mirror in the wardrobe and fixed my hair.

The lady with pink hair seemed to have already unpacked her luggage, having a lot more stuff than me.

'I guess ladies do carry a lot of 'responsibilities' around with them.'

I chuckled inwardly as I jumped on my bed and just laid down to relax.

'Ah!'

Everything here was so comfortable. The soft feeling of the bed on back felt nothing short of heavenly.

I just took a deep breath and stared at the beautiful ceiling.

"Hey!"

My face was suddenly covered by the shadow of two large… Ahem, I mean the shadow of the pink haired woman.

"Yo!"

I replied as I sat back up. I realised that I at least had to maintain a basic level of relationship with the person I'll be sharing this room with, at least for a week.

"I'm Malaika, from india. Nice to meet you."

That explains her gorgeous skin colour.

"Hello, I'm Flynn. I live in the states, although way too far. The pleasure is all mine."

Malaika smiled beautifully as she held her hand out for a handshake.

She had long nails, with purple coloured nail polish.

"Love your nails."

I complimented, and the smile on her face widened.

"You know how to talk with ladies, great. I was worried that I'd end up with a boring roommate."

Malaika said with an honest expression.

"As I said, the pleasure is all mine. I was worried I'll have to share the room with some dude, glad it's such a beautiful woman."

I responded back, entertaining the mature maiden in front of me.

'Wait, did she say her name was Malaika?'

And she was in the Diamond room.

"..."

Malaika! The leader of Lightbringers!

She was a fucking bigshot as well as the leader of one of the top guilds.

'Well, the diamond rooms are made for big shots. I'm sure I would have ended up with some other big shot if not her. Nevermind, I'm happy with my current roommate.'

"You see, I was a bit curious about something."

Malaika looked at me with a seductive look, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"Hmm? What is it?"

"I've gone through the list of people who'd be coming here, and I know every player who is in the top one thousand."

By now, I had a gut feeling where she was going with her question. But I had no idea as to how I'd reply to it.

"You're definitely not someone in the top thousand, neither are you a secret ranker. Mind telling me why Kibea was generous enough to place you in a diamond room?"

Her eyes had narrowed down, like a kitten waiting for its prey.

"I don't know, maybe you should ask them if you have some problem?"

I didn't reveal anything to her. Because as long as we were both participants of the competition, we were both basically competitors and rivals. I was not obliged to reveal any information to her unless I myself wanted to.

"No, no. Don't misunderstand. Why would I have a problem sharing a room with someone this handsome? I'm just curious, that's all."

Malaika backed off a bit, trying to give me some space and letting me know that she wasn't someone I should be wary of.

"Well, Flynn. I hope your mystery is at least on par with your looks."

She said slowly as she took off her heels and lied on her bed, getting busy in her skreener device.

—-Phew!

I let out a relieved sigh. Looks like it won't be long before everyone knows about the real identity of the first legendary class.

Well, there was no point in hiding it any longer, since I was already financially secure and had no fear of getting scammed into some random company.

Also, I sure hope I live up to the expectations of the first legendary class. Because apart from my looks in game, I didn't know what other things stood out about me.

The other top players all had some sort of speciality, I needed to discover mine too. And the tournament seems like the perfect place to find it out.
