[VRMMO] Chaos Doctor

"Oh? So that mean you are interested?" – asked Diamond.

"I don't know." – replied Phantasia as he fetched two chairs and handed one over to Diamond who took it and sat down alongside Phantasia.

"It depends on what you exactly want and how much?"

"Do you want some mass produced product? Or some costume made ones?"

"So just get on with it."

"So, what do you want?"

"Hm…."

"I don't know." – said Diamond.

"What about that minigun of yours you used in the Frenzy Labyrinth?"

"…."

*Sigh*

"How much do you know?" – asked Phantasia.

"Enough." – said Diamond.

"I know you were the one who wrecked my boys as well as the Obsidian Mane guild."

(So, he was keeping watch and gathering info, eh?) – though Phantasia.

"Is it revenge? If so, let me tell you something." – said Phantasia.

"You were one picking the fight there and if anything, I'm really curios about why the hell you did all of that? You do realize people will have no choice but to fight you?"

"…..."

"…."

"Silence, eh?" – said Phantasia after Diamond gave no reply.

"Well, it's not like I care."

"In that place is every man and woman for themselves."

"So really you can't be blamed."

"And I won't ask any more questions regarding this."

"But…. I will make sure you hear me."

"I will "Wreck" any of your guild members if they will try to stop me."

"But besides that, I'm still neutral and I'm stilling willing to do business."

"So, what do you want really?"

"…."

"So, the minigun?" – asked Diamond.

"Not for sale, yet. It's an prototype."

"It has a lot of power, but the mana consumption is way too high and its weights too much."

"…. By mana consumption you mean that is burns a lot of MP?" – asked Diamond.

"Yes. It kind of burns too much to be exactly, since I- "

"How about I fund your research and help you finish making those miniguns?" – spoke up suddenly Diamond.

"If I help you finish this research, will it be possible for you to make multiple miniguns for me at reduced prize depending on the amount of funds I had lend you?"

"…."

"You really want them, don't you?" – asked Phantasia with serios look.

"Of course." – replied Diamond.

"I mean, miniguns that doesn't need to use an real bullets? Do you know how much money we could possibly save up from this?"

"Yea, I get it. But the problem is mana." – replied Phantasia.

"Even if I do secure necessary materials to somewhat make mana consumption much lower, it would still eat a LOT of MP."

"It also depends on the mana gun type. For example, is it an "Charged" or "Charging" where in "Charged" you can charge the mana gun beforehand and with "Charging" is where you don't have anything like an battery and you use mana as you shots."

"If you plan on adding an battery, then that battery would end up costing a lot depending on size of the battery and capacity of mana stored inside."

"Costume ordered mana guns ARE strong and special depending on what kind of job you want, but the problem is that they heavily rely on MP and the cost of the weapon in question would be high as well."

"Mana gun look cool and everything, but- "

"I know." – said Diamond.

"I even bough some of the mana guns you had made. Some of the old ones and recent ones." – said Diamond as he took out two pistole type mana guns that Phantasia instantly recognized.

"!"

(Bastard.) – though Phantasia.

(Still, his offer isn't too bad.)

(People don't know that I'm filthy rich, since a lot of my income came from illegal actives.)

(If I take their deal, I could have a lot of money on me, "On paper".)

(But then again, I'm in no rush to gain more money, since I the amount of gold I had obtained from organization was MASSIVE!)

(I'm only my in real life without any problems and I'm not spending my money like crazy right now, meaning I have a lot of saved up money in my bank.)

(And again, if I wish to earn any big money, I can either work for organization or plunder anything valuable in the game as "Doctor".)

(I also have an solid income from selling my stuff as Phantasia.)

(In short, I'm rich.)

(But then again, who says that having more money is a problem?)

(I don't have any real reason to decline his offer and it could possibly result in me having no longer deal with them while I'm in Frenzy Labinyth…...)

"Hm…."

"!"

"Question. Is it possible for you to pay in something else than money?" – asked Phantasia.

"Hm? You mean like the payment with materials and items?" – asked Diamond.

"Yes. That it." – replied Phantasia.

"…."

"…."

"Hm…. It depends." – replied Diamond after thinking for a bit in silence.

"What sort of materials are we talking about here?"

"Floor guardians." – said Phantasia.

"I'm talking here about the floor guardians."

"…."

"You are quite greedy." – said Diamond with serios look.

"And so are you." – replied Phantasia while also giving an serios look to the Diamond.

"…."

"Hm…."

(We can get materials from the floor guardians up to floor 4…... But gathering enough keys will be problematic.) – though Diamond.

(He says materials, but pretty much everything that the floor guardian drops are very valuable, including materials.)

(Its pretty obvious why he wants materials, but will it be worth it selling those materials to him?)

(Honestly, we could probably use those materials and have some skilled craftsman use them to make some items for our elite members, making them stronger and everything…. And this guy is also an ideal craftsman that was able to create legendary rarity armor set.)

(If anything, it would have been the best if we kept those materials and had somebody like him craft stuff for us.)

(And again, gathering keys through that place would take a time, no matter the floor and there comes also beating the floor guardian in question as well. Those guys are hard like hell. An market price for each item dropped by the floor guardian is also very expensive.)

(And obviously, each next floor forces the players to take even more time and struggle even more, with in turn causes each materials dropped by the floor guardians to cost even more.)

"…."

"Is it possible to pay with some other materials instead?" – asked Diamond.

"Well, it depends." – replied Phantasia.

"Do you have some quality materials that are also hard to get?"

"That are the things I'm looking for."

"…."

"If we provide you with materials that are good but in lower quality than the materials from Frenzy Labyrinth, would that do?" – asked Diamond.

"It depends." – replied Phantasia.

"On what sort of material, we are talking about here as well as how much."

(It also depends if I can gain later access to them as well or not, since I could possibly use those materials to create my own monsters.) – though Phantasia.

"If not, I will go with money, but warning. It will still cost a lot."

"…. I see." – said Diamond as he got up from his chair.

"Well then, I will come back, I need to see what kind of materials we could possibly offer. We will comeback later and continue this talk."

"Suit yourselves." – said Phantasia.

Moments later, Diamond and the two guards left Phantasia house.

"…."

(What is that guy planning?) – though Phantasia who was still suspicious of the Diamond.

(He is completely aware of the fact that I'm the one who attacked and murdered his guys, and yet he came here wanting to do business?)

(Will he use the stuff I made to somehow reinforce his rule on the floor 5?)

(….)

(No.)

(I don't care if he uses the weapons for "Good" or "Evil".)

(We are just business partners and I could just said that I wasn't aware of what they were planning on using these things for, if somebody comes pestering me and saying that I'm working with them.)

(But still, this is annoying.)

(This guy is well aware of the fact that I easily beat the ranker.)

While Phantasia was wondering on what was the goal of the Diamond and his Blue Diamond guild, the man in question was now wondering through the streets of the city.

"…."

"Sir. I don't mean to bother you, but I have question." – said one of the Diamond bodyguards who was walking behind him.

"Do you really think he will accept the deal?"

"Well, he didn't said yes or no and if anything, he seemed curios about the whole deal and was even asking for the materials." – replied Diamond who was walking around in the alleyways with his guards.

"He doesn't seems to be holding an grudge or anything like that, but he is wary and don't really trust me or my guild after he found himself accidently in our little scheme."

"So, I would like to somewhat "Calm down" the situation between us."

"Not only that, but there is an good chance that Phantasia is either an high ranker in the crafter rankings if not the master ranker and the reason why he didn't registered in the rankings was to not get bothered too much."

"I did wanted to recruit him and even gave him an pretty good offer for him where he would earning an fortune, but he declined and that pretty much surprised me, since the amount of money I was offering wasn't anything to be that easily ignored."

"He maybe some casual player that doesn't have any problem with money…. But the problem is with his skills."

"You saw his craft and saw how much there are selling on the auction house."

"There is also that minigun of his. According to our people, it had an deadly power, and yet that guy says its prototype?"

"What do you think would happened if he completes it? And what if he sells us multiple copies of the finished product?"

"With that kind of fire power, we can even turn our weakest guild members into deadly soldiers."

"But, he did warned us about the whole MP problem and stuff and there is also the fact that those miniguns would be probably somewhat heavy to carry around."

"So, we would need to have specific people to carry and use them."

"And honestly speaking, the miniguns aren't my only goal. I want to get friendly with that Phantasia guy."

"You saw the reports, he took down Roar."

"Obsidian Mane didn't said much to cover their failure and somewhat preserve their pride, but considering how fast they went offline after getting send to kill him means one thing."

"That guy is strong."

"And according to the Mane with some details he decided not to hide, its seems that he got beaten up with his fists."

"In terms of strength and not in crafting, Phantasia is definitely an unregister ranker and if he were ever to register, he could end up becoming an high ranking ranker, if he could beat Roar and his goons so fast."

"That is probably another reason why he didn't registered."

"This guy is important and so are his crafting skills."

"We need to get closer to this bastard so we can use him more regularly and possible even recruit him in our guild in the end."

"That is why I'm aiming for materials instead of gold, since he seems more interested into those than money and if we do give him an good enough materials, we will become "Close" to him."

"So let's and try be "Friends" with Phantasia since, it could benefit us even more than any of us could possible though."
