I'm in Chelsea's working room because she has something to show me. I'm watching her designing a costume on paper while smoking on the balcony and drinking orange juice. Chelsea is staring at her design from a different angle and then she stands up to approach me. She's waving the paper at me and then I look at the costume design.
"Is it unfinished? It looks great and kind of cool to be honest. Is it for some kind of a fashion show?"
Chelsea looks at it while taking the cigarette from my hand. She puffs the smoke and shakes her head.
"No, I'm planning to make cool and cute kind of equipment in the game. Well, you see of these parts? The reason I let it be is that Grisell will put armor on it. We are planning to make it like costume-looking equipment but at the same time, it's still armor. We want to make something amazing and to be honest, I can use my skill in the game to get extra money."
I raise my eyebrows.
"Oh? That's so awesome. I would like to have one."
Chelsea is chuckling and shaking her head.
"What? You already have that nice-looking costumes that you got during the even though. Why do you want to use another one since it will be hidden by costumes anyway? Isn't it going to be a waste if you wear this while you're wearing your costumes as well?"
I nod with understanding.
"I know, but as I said with all of you guys that I had to stay away and try to blend in when needed. So if I'm wearing that costume of mine, I will be easily spotted by them, right? So I'm thinking to get a different set of armor to make myself look like a different player. I'm also trying to get used to using spell and magic now and then so I don't have to show my scythe and sickle around players."
Chelsea is leaning on the railing while humming with understanding.
"Right... alright then, what kind of design do you want?"
I smile and raise my eyebrows.
"Well, you're the master, then you should surprise me. I will wear whatever you made and I bet it will look so damn fine anyway."
Chelsea scoffs and shakes her head.
"Alright! I will make a masterpiece just for you. Since you're going to be a mage-like character, I should make it like a cool robe and cloak or something like that... yeah, I have the idea. I will make the scratch now."
I nod.
"Thanks, Chessi."
Chelsea nods.
"No problem."
Chelsea goes back to her table and immediately grabs her pencil and starts drawing. I look at the time and it's 2 P.M., I should go back online and check on Avriel since I haven't seen her since she left to secure Jariel from danger. When I'm on my way to the door, someone is running toward the door hurriedly, then the door bursts open with Grisell is catching her breath.
"You both need to see this!"
Chelsea is looking at Grisell with her pencil in her right hand and orange juice in her left hand. I raise my eyebrow.
"What happened?"
Grisell is pointing at something.
"Come to your room, Trev! It's bad! Just hurry up! Everyone is waiting."
Chelsea and I are looking at each other and then we both follow Grisell to my room.
We are entering my room and everyone is looking at me with disbelief and worries at the same time. Michael is pointing his finger at the TV screen while staring at me.
"Dude, did you do this?"
I raise my eyebrows and then walk toward the TV and look at the screen. It's the forum website and there are pictures of dead NPCs scattering around and it seems that they were all dug up from the ground. I immediately notice who they are and where it is. Those are the dead bodies of the Headless Cult that Krestan, Azrael, and I buried before we left the Headless Cult's lair. The only players that know about this are Jake, Jacob, and perhaps Aspen since Jake and Jacob should have told him about it.
I read the thread title and the content of the thread.
[Look what we found (Trevor is the culprit!) [Updated]]
[Annon: We were exploring the newly discovered map since the last update, and when we saw a mountain, we look at the map and we were at the Delaisse Mountain. We explored the whole area since we were curious about what might we find, and then we found this cave.

When we got inside the cave, we were surprised and sickened with what we found. We can't tell it because it's too gruesome. You all can look at them yourself.
Disturbing Image Warning!

We almost vomited and we left the cave immediately because the stench of rotten and smelly smell was so overwhelming. As you all saw on the images, some people might have massacred them and it really disturbing to look at. What kind of people would do something like this! Is it NPCs that did this? If so, this game should have put a warning before we play the game. This game is not just for adults! There are so many young age players that are playing for fun!
We decided to look around and we saw a very odd-looking ground that bulking unnaturally, so we dug it up and we found these dead bodies...

We think we need to inform all the players that this game is actually not safe for underaged players! Please help us to report this to the developer and we need their response and explanation related to this event!]
[Comments]
[KL: Holy ****... What the **** is this! This is so disturbing and I don't think this is appropriate to look at! What kind of monster gave the idea of this kind of event?! The devs are sick! I'm reporting it!]
[IFG: This is so wrong on so many levels... this is my first week playing the game, and if I'm the one who saw this, I would run away and stop playing this game forever. Dude, I'm reporting this as well. This is so wrong.]

[JT: Wait! You said you found them on the Delaisse Mountain? Wasn't that where Trevor went when we were looking for him? Does anyone remember where he was back then? Because I might be wrong.]
[PR: [Replies to JT] Yes! You are right! We were looking for him at Grisell's House, but then one of the players told us that he was in the Delaisse Mountain, I'm pretty sure about it since I put a mark on the map because we were planning to find him!]
[IFG: [Replies to PR] Wait, you're telling us that this isn't an event but a player who did this? Jesus Christ! Is that player a psychopath or something?! We need to find him and report him! This Trevor player needs to be banned for this!]
[KL: Replies to PR] Wait what?! Trevor did this?! You must be joking right? Can you at least gave us proof first? I don't want to make a conclusion without proof.]
[PR: [Replies to IFG, KL] Here, we have the proof that you need! [Link] That's the video when we were at Grisell's house and [Francesca] was pissed at us and yelled at us, then a woman informed us about Trevor's whereabouts. If we connected the incident in Fjel Town, and then the timespan after he disappeared to Delaisse Mountain, then it's not just a coincidence!]

[VA: Wait is this the reason why Trevor is so strong? He killed NPCs and took their equipment and maybe found so many good skills after killing NPCs? Man... now that I think about it, it gives me chills...]
[TE: [Replies to VA] Dude... if that's true, then he's f*cked up... How can a person do something like this, and not to mention he became a hero with that dirty hands of his! I used to be his big fan, but after knowing this. I don't even want to see him honestly. He's a psychopath...]
[AD: I knew it! Something is wrong with Trevor. Now we all know his true color guys! Please if anyone here knows where is he at right now, we need to find him and hunt him down! I'm glad we found about this now, and I hope Trevor would stop do doing this. I agree with all of you, Trevor should be banned for this. I already report it to the GM.]
I'm reading every comment in the thread and all of them are hating me for this. I know it looks so disturbing because Krestan is the one who destroyed their bodies and Azrael is the one who ate a few of their body parts, but I don't think by saying I didn't do it and throw the blame on NPC and my companion seems stupid and just nothing but an excuse.
I take a deep breath and sigh while looking at them.
"Yeah.... I did."
