"I am a bug. I don't deserve to live, without the Lord's forgiveness! And I am Lord's bi*ch." These words come from my mouth. I would never think I would say this words.

Not that because I am a proud person. I never thought I was this weak. I always thought, at least I was strong enough to run away. Is there a more shame than being not even able to run away?

A few minutes earlier.

"Are you the bug insulted my Lord?" a weird man showed up, with a thunderbolt. He had long purple hair, falling on his shoulders like a waterfall made of galaxies. He was handsome with stars like eyes, completing the night space. He had two horns golden colored, around a foot size.

"Who the hell are you?" I couldn't help but ask. This handsome man appeared out of nowhere, asking me questions about his Lord.

"Apologize now," said Crow with imaginary sweats forming on his imaginary forehead.

What did you say? Why would I apologize? I insulted the Shop God with solid reasons. He has done me wrong. He should learn that I am not a pushover. I will not take my words back.

"I am Lord Shop God's Champion, Gold Coin(Tribute to Super Gene!) I will not let you talk badly about my Lord. But you didn't just insult my Lord, did you? Did you call him to your feet, for mere Rings?" Gold Coin started to walk me with intimidating steps. Like I didn't understand you are the Shop God's lackey. You appeared just after I insulted him, of course, I know who the hell you are.

"If they are just a mere Rings, why your Lord wants them so badly?" I retort without fear. This guy is all show. Handsome and flashy, but missing on the head.

"You ignorant trash. Do you think when you collect all 24 rings, you can even combine them? There are four in this World, and by luck, you come upon four of them. No, you haven't got the fourth one yet. But you are lucky you found one of the main parts. My Lord granted you bunch of SC for it, but you just thought my Lord is cheating you? After all his help you receive, you think you can become a smartass?" Now you gave me the information I didn't know. 24 rings, 4 in this world and I already have three of them. As long as I gather all of them, they will be amazing Item. But where should I look for them?

"Look, I appreciate his help, I do. But, in the end, it was just another transaction. I helped them to solve the Templar problem, and he helped me with the Glasses of Confucius. By the way, I have to say. Your Lord didn't gift those glasses' to me. I won them with my own luck, spending a lottery ticket." Why you act like he gifted me a Divine Item? Yes, it would be a lot harder for me to identify Templars without it, but in the end, I do this Quest because your little group asked me to do it.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

"Give me the Rings!" he said with an authoritative tone.

"Excuse me? Why would I give them to you? I earned them with a lot of hardship. Unless you give me a Divine Item or something, beat it Horny!" How brazen are you? I didn't even exchange them with SC, and you ask me to give them to you. Dream on!

"Why did I choose a stupid to travel with?" murmured Crow.

What did you say, you bastard? I gave away my Duke Item for your stupid love, and this is how you treat me? What happened to "brother help brother" policy? Did you forget it in the face of danger?

"You little pervert! You did it for yourself and helped me in the meantime. Don't act all high and mighty! You wanted to get in her pants, don't say it, you did it because of me."

How dare you! It was pure love. I loved her, as a fragile rose. Love made of glass. I didn't even dare to approach her. How dare you say, I did it to get in her pants?

"You still talk like a poet when you think of her. And you claim you helped her because of me. How honest you are."

"Did you just call me Horny?" The man started to form a frown on his forehead and flashed before my eyes. Next second he was holding my right arm behind my back and his foot on my neck. The slightest move would dislocate my shoulder.

"I told you, take out Rings. You better pray to your stupid, incompetent Lord, that my Lord still needs you, and the fact I can't take anything out of your 'warehouse' even if you die. Otherwise, I would kill you so quick you couldn't even have time to think where did you do wrong."

What the hell. I can't even shake him off. He sealed all my exits. I can't even flash away. How can he be this strong?

"He is Shop God's Champion for thousands year. Traveled to countless worlds, and seen the countless technique. You don't have a chance against him. Hand over the rings. I told you I don't like the Shop God, but you pissed him off." said Crow.

"Now give me the Rings!"

"Here you go." You, your Lord, all the Lords support you, their champions, their families, their maids, their pets, their gardener, their drivers, their cook, their supplier, their newspaperman, the ants lived in their gardens, the man even greeted them once will pay for this. I swear on myself, I will wash away this shame with all of your blood.

I handed over the three rings to him. I had no chance to look inside of the Aquilo's ring and the ring I just acquired. The one I took from Aquilo must be one of the main parts.

"Now say it." Gold Coin looked from high with a smile. "Say you are a bug."

"I am a bug."

"And?"

"I am a bug. I don't deserve to live, without the Lord's forgiveness! And I am Lord's bi*ch."

"Good boy. You are a good boy. You will fetch things for the master right, good boy. When you acquire the fourth ring, what will you do with it?"

"I will give it to the master." I bit my lip. A line of blood followed to trail to my chest. I was so angry, I could bite his head off. If I wasn't afraid he could kill Jon, I would let Jon out, and ordered him to bit his limbs off, so I can torture him, all day and all night.

"Sure you will. I dare you to do not." He pushed his leg, and toss me to ground while I was screaming with agony I felt, because of my dislocated shoulder. He spat on me and flashed away with another thunderbolt.

I will make all of you pay. If I don't, I will start to work at Endless Love the rest of my life!
