Versatile: Alternate World

844 Preparation for the New Game Plus



After the lengthy explanation, everyone went back to their own accounts to secure their items. I propose to use my mansion and put every belongings they have there. Since all of our bought items and properties will remain ours even after the reset, we will still get them once we go there. Before I went in, I returned to the mansion with Renatta and explained the matter to the siblings on what occurred. Although they are sad that their progress will be reset, they are also happy since they can start over with their skills. Now that they know what to do next, they can now choose their ideal path for later. Like the others, I also suggested to put store their important items in the mansion and keep them there. We can't afford to lose some of our important items after all. Progress can be earned again but items and weapons we earned are not.

With that in the plan, we started to put all of our belongings inside our storage chests. Almira was confused as to why we are storing the items we keep on using and weapons as well, only equipping those items that are not worth much or are just weapons and armor used by beginners.

"You guys, I know you all are eccentric and unique individuals but are you guys trying to nerf yourselves and challenge enemies with that gear? Moreover, you guys are also putting the recovery items as well. What are you guys thinking?"

"It's a long story but we are just putting them in here for safekeeping in the meantime. We are not completely abandoning them."

"I don't know what is going on with this but I am getting curious as time goes on."

"You will know later on."

I didn't want to explain this matter to Almira just yet. Until we are out of the bindings from the Nexus, then we will have to keep our mouths shut on this plan.

Storing all of my items is now good to go. The only thing that I can't put into the storage is the Versatile Weapon. No matter how much I unequip the weapon, it couldn't even be unequipped at all, leaving me with no choice but to keep it equipped.

"Really? You really don't wanna let go, huh?"

Although the Versatile Weapon cannot speak, I can feel its weight considerably heavier than usual. Guess it's just something I didn't consider much but this weapon has been with me ever since.

Anyways, after I stored the items I don't want to get deleted later on aside from the Versatile Weapon, I logged out from the system. Perhaps this is even the very last time I will be using this account as well. However, since it is necessary for me to do so, then that's the only way we can go.

--------

Returning to the real world, I went back to Nagoya. I don't see any signs of Janus back at home so there is no point staying there for now. When I went down to go grab some grub, the elves were on the edge and are on their battle stance as they ready themselves for some unknown reason.

"Hey, what is going on?" I asked.

Pixie flew in my direction and started explaining what is happening.

"You are here! It seems some intruders are currently lingering in the house. We are still trying to determine their current location but there are indeed intruders walking around outside."

When I hear that there are intruders outside, I also went into combat stance and ready myself. No one dares to mess us up like this and get away safely.

"You guys stay here and defend this place, I will take a look outside and check who these f*ckers are."

I am proficient in close combat and even hand-to-hand combat now as well. There is no way these guys will just go away once I show myself to them.

Using my senses to try and detect them, I detected multiple men surrounding the place. I am not too sure who they are but all of them are armed with guns. Not only that but it seems they aren't the ordinary thugs either. They wear formal suits and they looked more like bodyguards or something similar. I think the proper term would be agents. Seeing that they are not just ordinary thugs lurking, they are not here to do some quick home heists but something else.

Since I can tell that this will escalate a lot, I didn't bother to waste my time and pulled out the Versatile Weapon and changed it to a gun. It doesn't use gunpowder and they use mana. In case they try something funny then they will also get to experience firsthand how a mana bullet feels.

They are closing in faster and seem to be in a coordinated plan. And without nearby neighbors to ask for help with, it's a perfect place for them to do things not possible to do in a populated neighborhood.

I activated my stealth and slowly creep to the nearest enemy and there they are. Still looking for a way to silently break into the house.

Since they decided to break in and has the intention to harm anyone inside, I decided that I can't tolerate them anymore and started blasting.

BANG BANG BANG!

The gunshots are loud but no one can hear them. Three gunshots, three down. I didn't kill them just yet. I needed to extract information from them and the more I capture, the better.

"Sh*t, fire!"

The men realized that they are under fire and started firing gunshots on us as well. Compared to mine which just used mana bullets and do not leave any holes on surfaces that got shot, the guns they are using are the real deal therefore, some of the windows in the house have been shot and broken.

I am still under stealth and no one knows who shot them, making them bewildered about what is happening. But that is good to know. Without them knowing who shot them, I can use that chance to silently pick on them.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Every shot I make, I made sure one falls down. In terms of dealing with intruders, I am not that merciful with them, especially with what happened in the last timeline. If they try to do something to me and everyone important to me, they will meet hell and I am not going to sugarcoat it.

The men in suits started to panic and look around for the perpetrator but they couldn't detect anyone. That's good.

Slowly blending with them, I didn't hesitate and started shooting at their legs one by one as well as their hands before breaking their guns to pieces. In terms of speed, I am not going to just slow myself on that.

They started groaning in pain as the mana bullet pierces their flesh. They might act like normal bullets but they were much more painful than the normal bullets due to the mana bullets burn the flesh or surface they were shot at, and without any bullets to detect, they are perfect assassination weapon to lethaly kill someone while remaining anonymous. Not only is it hard to determine whether it is from mana or not.

"Search for the shooter! Whoever they are, don't let them escape! Capture them if necessary!"

Capture huh? So their main attempt is not by killing people but capturing us alive? Then, there is one possibility.

"Nobuhiko."

It seems the cat is out of the bag and they are now after us. Sending people on us, they are determined to bring us back with them. But I think they clearly underestimated me and I will use that to my advantage to get to their weak spot.

I think it is necessary now to deal with this matter. I saw one of the commanding officers over there and are ordering matters this time around. I am not just going to leave them be like this.

Changing the Versatile Weapon's gun form into a sniper rifle form, I aimed into the commanding officer and did not hesitate to shoot them in the head.

BANG!

One shot and they are down. However, contrary to my expectation of bloody explosion of flesh, they started to get corrupted and their bodies turned static before disappearing.

"AI servants..." I muttered to myself.

AI servants are servants that are made from AI consciousness and despite looking like a person, they were in fact more of a robot than a human. Once they die, they are terminated like a program and they die, which then will result to their parts recycled and passed on.

One thing is for sure, this is the work of Nobuhiko. No one else. However, how does he know this place? Is it due to the surveillance? Or perhaps due to the fact that he is nearby that this happened? But whatever his plan is, I am not just going to let him do it. You mess with my family then you will meet God early.
