"Seriously this is our hideout?" Asked an unamused Helios
"Okay this hideout may not be glamorous as our usual ones but it's only a one-time use plus we are gonna do the heist in about the next day anyway." CJ responded and defended himself from his disappointment with Helios
"Dude our one-time hideout is literally a fucking broken carriage you dragged in the goddamn woods." Helios stated as it was then revealed that they are sitting inside a carriage missing all four of its wheel as three of it were piled outside while being somewhere in the forest at night as the only light illuminating is from a lantern which was placed on a branch above them
"Hey, can you blame me you gave me about two hours of finding a hideout while you three did your own thing and this is what I found while missing a wheel and is conveniently sitting on the middle of the road where no one was in sight, so I took and had to move it here" He defended himself as he explained his story to Helios
"Wait so you just found this piece of shit in the middle of the road?" Joe asked with an eyebrow to which he responded with a nod at him
"Okay how about trying to find an empty building in the town next to the lord's castle is located or an Inn or something better than this cramped ass wagon and it is not as comfortable as sitting in a car." Helios responded by expressing his hatred for the broken carriage
"Dude I have tried that before finding this piece of shit carriage but most are full due to the fact that the population that has a bigger population than we thought plus we don't even have enough money for a room in an inn genius and lastly would it be suspicious if four dudes in black outfits with one wearing a weird foreign mask renting rooms on an inn people might think we are some kind of cult who would summon some kind of ancient eldritch demons name Kermit the frog or Shia LaBeouf and he would follow you in the woods when no is around out of the corner of your eye." CJ argued back as he ended it humorously which only made Joe and Drip chuckled a bit
"Okay okay stop arguing we can deal with this, it is only a one-time hideout anyway." Driplord420 pointed out stopping Helios and CJ from arguing and then asked "So first of all what is our game plan anyway on robbing the castle?" To which they began looking at each waiting for one of them to say something to which they ended by looking at SeniorCJTrain
"What I thought you guys made a plan while I was moving this stupid carriage in those two hours" CJ defended himself as they stared at him to which he continued by asking "What did you guys even do in those two hours?"
"Well, for starters I was gathering more info about Eostia along with its Geography and history which is interesting per see which I will tell you guys next time in a better hideout." Driplord 420 explained as he then signaled Helios to explain his part
"Well I was gathering supplies for our little heist which is currently outside of our 'hideout' "He stated as he ended with an air quote gesture at CJ to which they then exited the carriage
"What about you Joe what have you been doing?" CJ asked as they started exiting the carriage
"Well, I was robbing people." He replied casually which they responded by giving him a stare
"Wait so you've been having fun without us?" CJ asked as they stared at Joe
"Well, it's only 27 silver pieces anyway which actually I just rob a robber or a bandit in this kind of era when he tried robbing a lady to which I quickly loot his body after I smacked him a bat." He explained to them as they followed Helios to the supplies they see a large chest which was Helios opened inside and see only four large empty sacks, a hook, and a rope
"Is that all?" Asked CJ as he grabbed the hook and a sack "I understand the hook, rope, and four sacks but why did you even have a chest for this?"
"Well, the same purpose of the sacks of course to carry the treasure and money." He replied nonchalantly much to the dissatisfaction of answer of CJ's question
"So what? We are sneaking in on the castle while carrying a large ass chest on our left shoulder like we are Arnold Schwarzenegger carrying a coffin from Terminator 3" CJ sarcastically responds to Helios
"Well no, but actually yes" Helios retorted much to the unamused CJ
"Actually I have an idea for the escape plan and only for that though." Helios said gaining the attention of the others before he explains his plan "Well the escape plan is that I'll go and pilot a Volatus helicopter to pick you guys up once you guys went and collect the treasure before the escape" To which the group stared at him for a second
"Hold up so you're saying we will go there and do all the work while you sit your butt in the helicopter?" CJ asked as Helios nodded in agreement nonchalantly much to the disagreement of others
"Wait a minute we never agreed to your plan nor did we even talk about it, then what the fuck is the purpose of the four sacks if you're not coming?" CJ protested before asking as he held the sacks in front of Helios' face
"Oh, that would be four sacks divided for two people and the chest to carry by the third guy." He said ignoring the glares and looks to which he started defending himself" Hey someone has to be the getaway driver or pilot for that matter plus I don't think sneaking in with a flying metal object towards a castle would be stealthy at all plus the less the people sneaking in the castle the less the chances of a mess-up since there is probably no retry option in this world"
"Okay, he does have a valid point." Said CJ agreeing to find it hard to argue with his statement "But why the fuck are you the getaway pilot while we carry the shit?"
"Well because Mr senior, "He responded mockingly before continuing saying "Because we don't want anyone crashing helicopters at buildings now do we? just the time the first time you used the helicopter in VR and crashed it into the prison during a heist and even after a year you still have many incidents with crashed it into buildings and even the time where you crashed into a lamp post as we fly cargo to a warehouse."
"Hey, it's not my fault I just need more time to get used to using a VR helicopter" CJ responded as he continued to argue with Helios before continuing saying "But why does it have to be you anyway?"
"Well because Senior unlike you I'm a better pilot than you plus I am the best pilot out of all the four of us so the lesser crashes we have the better chances we have at escaping" Helios stated as they all reluctantly agreed with him
"Alright, we can deal with it plus we still need to plan on our entrance plan." Said Joe before turning his head to Driplord" Do you have a plan oh great leader?"
"Yeah, how about we just go in sneaky kill some guards and find the treasury and make our escape how about that?" Driplord420 responded and asked for their opinion
"So what? that's all it's not much of a plan but more like an idea." Joe criticized with a raised an eyebrow reluctant to their plan
"Hey we can deal with it we will just wing it in and hope nothing is going to fuck us over as we proceed." Driplord responded with assurance as they all reluctantly agreed
"Yeah, let's just go and rob the castle we can deal with the consequences of our stupidity later." Said CJ as they went to proceed with their plans
"Wait a minute I have one question Helios where did you even get the money to buy th-" CJ stopped realizing as Helios smiled and asked. "You stole it didn't you?"
"Of course I did." He replied nonchalantly at CJ much to his displeased
"So all three of you are either having all the fun or going around like idiots while I had to do shit around here?" He said with great displease in his face as all three of them nodded
"Okay then let's just get ready and man our positions and strike at dark." Said CJ as he opened his interaction menu
"Wait isn't it already dark?" Joe asked pointing at the night sky to which he then stared intently at him
"No shit Sherlock now come on let's change to our heist outfit." CJ responded as they all proceed to their interaction
As they all began to choose their style in their interaction menus and began changing their outfit quickly in a blink of an eye each player's usual outfits were replaced by their heist outfits as each of them has their own style of outfit. Driplord420 wore a black T-shirt with a black tactical midlength jacket, battle pants, all-black cowboy boots, black skull neck gaiter, leather gloves, superior glasses, and a black cowboy hat. SeniorCJTrain wore a charcoal-rolled t-shirt with a black heavy utility vest, black combat pants, heavy uniform boots, black woolen gloves, a skull-tight ski mask, and a black bulletproof helmet. Helios wore a high-end stealth heist outfit dubbed as 'the smooth' from the Diamond Casino along with black casuals glasses. And last but not least Joe wore a black stealth shirt with a stealth utility vest, black large cargo pants, black tactical boots, black woolen gloves, a black tight ski mask, and a black quad lens combat helmet.
"You have to get rid of your cowboy hat in your heist outfit I just can't take you seriously." Said CJ as they follow Driplord420 while staring at his cowboy hat
"Hey this is the coolest hat in the game" Driplord defended his choice of style while pointing to his hat
"Come on man we've been over this for eleven days already ever since you decided to wear that God awful hat for every heist in the last 11 days and what makes it worst is you even have to wear cowboy boots too" CJ stated as he pointed at cowboy boots
"Plus we are all mostly wearing tactical or stealth-based theme outfits for heists while you are literally wearing a cowboy hat like your Clint Eastwood or something." Said Helios agreeing with CJ's disdain for the cowboy hat
"Wow that is neat coming Mr original like that shades of yours make any difference from any common heist outfit from Diamond Casino" Driplord replied mockingly at Helios' outfit
"Hey at least I am with the theme while you are the only one here who wears a cowboy hat you Texan wannabee" He argued back the Driplord
"Hey, Joe never made any complaints with my outfit" Driplord stated as he pointed at Joe
"Seriously dude you just change the goddamn hat dude it just weirds for a heist outfit and also out of place." CJ pleads with Driplord as they expressed their hate for the hat
"I missed the part where that is my problem." Driplord responded as he stared menacingly straight at SeniorCJ's eyes which he then flip the bird at Drip's face
"Alright, can we go now you guys are wasting time arguing over a hat." Joe said annoyed as he waited for them
"Alright, we will deal with the hat argument later, okay." Said Helios as they turn to him "Plus three of you won't be wearing any hats for this mission anyway." which they responded with a raised eyebrow
"Anf why is that Helios?" Driplord asked Helios suspicious of him
"Because you three will be wearing cloaks over your outfits anyway." He said as he gave each three of them cloaks
"Wait why the hell are we wearing cloaks if we already are wearing are heist outfits?" CJ asked confused about Helios suggestion
"Because we must conceal our foreign to the medieval people because if they spotted our black outfit it would not take modern education to figure out that the men in black are the ones who rob the castle plus most of our outfits are black and grey and also the ones that aren't are either clown uniforms or outfits we used to roleplay as the Families." Helios explained to which they then agreed to his explanation
"Wait why didn't you get us medieval outfits would it not be easier for our concealment?" Driplord asked
"Well, I just found these cloaks on some conspicuous-looking gentlemen which they try to beat me up which I knock them out with my virtual strength, and also due to the cursed realistic AI I don't want to feel bad for taking away their dignity and stripping them to their underwear in public that's crueler than committing out various war crimes we committed on various games."
"Okay fine well then let's go and man out positions." Said Driplord as they all agreed
"Roger Roger." All of them said in unison as they mimicked a voice line of the famous droids of Star Wars
Later they arrived at the outskirts of the town as it surrounds the castle they are wearing cloaks given by Helios to hide in public as they looked over the dark town full of sleeping people with the only light illuminating is from the street lanterns and from some of the windows of the houses and some from the castle which is north in the village as a running river was located behind it
"Alright, Helios you go and find some hills to spawn the Volatus and sit your lazy ass on it while we sneak into town and to the castle itself. Joe you carry the Chest with the sacks, ropes, and hook in it." Driplord planned as they proceed to the town Joe then carried the chest on his left shoulder while Helios went in another direction to spawn in the Volatus and to hide from where it could be seen
As they walk into town then passed through the outer walls without being seen by the guards to which they then hide in alleyways or in where light illuminates less while trying to avoid guardsmen
"Okay as long as they don't see us then we will be fine." Driplord420 said as they continue to sneak in
"Not so much sneaky as Joe over there carrying that big ass chest on his shoulder" CJ stated pointing at Joe who is currently carrying the chest but was stopped as something caught his attention as he smelled something through the darkness
"The fuck why do I suddenly smell shit?" CJ asked as he cover his nose and went to take a peek around to find out where the stench came from to which he then see an NPC carrying a wagon full of human feces while follows by two others while one of them is covered in feces.
"Who are those guys and why is one of them covered in shit?" CJ asked quietly as he still covered his nose while they stared at the three serfs
"Those are the gong farmers as you know medieval ages don't really have much good sewage back then so the solution for that is those guys who will deal with their shit" He quietly explained to him
"Damn let's hope those guys get paid well for a shitty job." Said, Joe feeling bad for the NPCs
"Okay stop with the shit puns and let's go before someone sees us." CJ suggested as they proceed to continue their mission toward the castle as they move through the alleyways
"Hey you there" Yelled a guardsman with a spear towards them as he then proceed to point in the direction
"Shit" Joe muttered as the guard yelled at them from behind
"What are you three doing out here in the night and state your business, especially you the gentleman with the chest how about all of you turn around." The guard demanded as then turned around slowly revealing their faces and parts of their clothing underneath the cloaks
"What the hell." the guard muttered as he is on high alert as he continued pointing his spear at them
"Easy there let's all calm down and oh shit it's an ogre" He yelled as he point in the direction behind him Driplord quickly switch to his Suppressed MKII pistol and shot him in the back of the head to which his body fell on the ground as blood was then spilled on the ground and turned to the others and whispered" Quickly hide his body before the other guards come and see it and this heist doesn't have a replay so we can't kill ourselves" to which three of them quickly grab and move the corpse and bring it with them while trying to not let its blood drop to conceal themselves but still left a pool of blood on the ground where he shot the guard
"Well, that shit worked." Said Joe surprised at how the guard easily fell for the pointing at the random direction trick most people used
"Well, then how the fuck are we gonna clean that?" CJ quietly asked as he panicked and pointed at the blood pool they left
"Over here I heard something is here" They heard a voice of what they assumed was more guards
"Oh Fuck." Joe muttered as they hid behind barrels along with the corpse of the guard they killed. They then saw two guardsmen with spears as they checked around and expectedly they saw the blood
"Look its blood and it's still fresh." Said the first guardsman as he pointed to the blood
"I'm gonna go and look around you go sound the alar-" The second guardsman was cut off as he was shot leaving the other confused
"What th-" He was also cut off as he was also shot in the head as his body fell to the ground
"Okay that takes care of that" Said Driplord much to CJ's frustration
"Great job genius now where are we gonna hide the bodies?" He asked in a panic as he look around for places to hide it
"Chill CJ, we just can hide them in those empty-looking barrels." He replied calmly pointing at the barrels with his pistol
"Oh okay, but hurry before more of those guards will see this shit." He said as they began to move and stuff their bodies on the bodies but much to their annoyance all of them could not fit inside which resulted in them deciding to chop their limbs off with their stone hatchets and axes to make sure they can fit them inside the barrel as they each placed pieces of their body
"Okay we are literally doing some serial killer shit so uhm let's hope it is not a kid who opened it up" CJ stated as he then realize they left blood splatters all over the ground where they dismembered the bodies of the guards which he then turns to Drip and Joe and said" Uhm guys we still need to do something our mess over here"
"Don't worry I got an idea." Driplord said as he then moved the barrels to where the blood splatters are located as hid by placing it above the blood hiding it underneath the barrel much to CJ's dismay
"Seriously you are gonna hide like that?" Said CJ pointing to some of the blood that is still not hidden by the barrel
"Hey, I tried my best dude." He raised his arms as he defended himself before they continued back to their mission as proceeded toward the castle walls
They then arrived outside of the walls of the castle and in a very dark spot where no one can spot them as they now prepared to break into the castle
"Okay Joe gimme the grappling hook and rope" Driplord ordered as he gave him the grappling hook he then tied it to the rope to which he then started spinning it "Now my dear comrades watch and learn" he then threw the hook at the top of the wall but unfortunately he misses as it fell to the ground much to his annoyance while CJ and Joe chuckled as quietly as then can
"Nice throw great leader we definitely from your expertise." CJ mockingly said as they laugh at the misfortune of Driplord as he then gave them the bird. He then tried again to which he luckily succeeded much to the disappointment of CJ and Joe wanting to see him fail again.
"Alright I'll go first, CJ second while you Joe go harness the chest with rope and go last to which we then pull it up cause we don't want the rope to break with all our weight plus the chest weight" Driplord explained as he first climbs up the rope and reaches to the top of the which is followed by CJ then Joe a few minutes after tieing up the chest with the rope as he then climbs up while leaving the chest in the ground
"Alright pull it up." Driplord ordered as Joe pulled the Chest up towards them
They then heard footsteps to see a guard emerging from the door of the tower next to them to which Driplord quickly shoots at him. He groans in pain from two shoots before being shot straight in the head stopping him from making more noises from groaning to which he and CJ began to check around if they were spotted but much to their relief no alarm was sounded as Joe continued to pull the chest up
"Good almost shit my pants there." CJ sighed in relief as he then grabs the corpse of the guard as he then threw it off the wall where they climb from
"Btw how is Helios supposed to extract us here undetected cause I don't think we need news of unidentified extra terrestrial objects hovering through the castle." Joe asked as they started observing the castle for exfil spots
"Okay how about the back of the castle walls there is nothing but a river there plus with a big stone building blocking the view then there would be less chances of us getting spotted." Said Driplord as he pointed at the back of the castle
"Okay that's good" CJ agreed "But should we report this to Helios?"
"Nah let's just tell him in our escape." Driplord shrugged it off
"Okay then, lets better head in there now before more spotted us." Said CJ as they head into the tower where the guard emerged
They then entered the castle and they continued silent killing some guards on the way and hiding their bodies as they continued going through the dark castle and arrived in a hallway with the light illuminating from the windows and their flashlights as they realized something
"Wait a minute where the hell do they even hide their treasury?" Joe asked as they once again stared at each other
"Oh come how could we fucking forget the most important thing." CJ facepalmed
"Okay okay guys don't panic I heard that most nobles would hide their treasury in some room so we need to find some secret passage" Said Driplord much to their reluctance
"Where the fuck did you hear that from." CJ asked with a raised eyebrow
"I don't know just came from my mind and also that would be the most logical thing." Driplord replied to which Joe agreed much to the displeased CJ
"So if we can't find the treasure and got out empty-handed then imagine the news that we just came to town at night killed some guards break into someone's home run around like chickens without their heads refused to elaborate then leave without taking a shit from them?" CJ said as Driplord thinks of a plan
"Okay, how about we go and proceed to find some secret passageway around here?" Driplord suggests to them before continuing explaining." How about we check behind paintings or find a secret door or buttons or something"
"Okay, then where do we start?" CJ asked Driplord
"Let's try the Lord's bedroom that could be the best place where he could hide a secret passage and the least obvious" Said Driplord as they continued through the dark castle looking for the lord's chamber, after a few hallways and rooms they manage to find his bedroom.
"Okay find secret passages." Driplord said as they ravage through the room looking for a secret pass they tipped the bed over and moved the closet as they check around any secret levers for a passageway, and pulled paintings from the wall.
"Okay we definitely not finding shit from here, we should have tried the library like dude that's the most obvious place to hide a secret passage anyway." CJ suggested as they found nothing in the room
"Hey, you idiots are still ravaging there?" Asked Helios from their discord voice chat much to the annoyance of the other three inside
"Hey we are trying our best here dude like you even doing some hard work over there" Joe stated as he quietly yelled through the voice chat
"Yeah, I am doing some hard work here." Helios replied
"Like what?" Asked an unamused Joe and CJ
"Like watching out for you guys on a distance while watching youtube in the process." He said as he chuckled through his voice revealing he was watching youtube videos in the helicopter much to the annoyance of CJ
"How the fuck is that hard work?" Asked a frustrated CJ as he quietly yelled at the chat
"Uhm I am using all my eyes to watch for your guy's back in the dark which is hard to see while trying to clear my boredom." He explained nonchalantly as CJ 'calmly inhales and he quietly yelled" Fuck you and shut up while we do our hard work here."
"Okay have fun," Helios replied mockingly as he muted himself
"Okay, we are wasting our time here how about we head to the library right now." Joe suggested to them
"Yeah, your right about that." Driplord said as he then step on a piece of paper as it skids onto the floor he grab it as he pulled out a flashlight in his inventory as he then aimed it at the paper to see it was a letter
"Dude no time to read the paper let's go." CJ said impatiently but was ignored as Driplord started reading the paper
"Dear Lord Alaric Genevieve, I regret to inform you that my son Seth and your daughter Aurora's wedding would have to be postponed due to an attack by the monsters of the Dark Queen Garan as I am currently in the middle of a battle between me, the knights of Goddess Celestine against the legion of monsters she has sent and I would like to request for your aid and assistant as we are currently outnumbered as most of my troops have fallen in battle as the only reinforcement we have is the warriors sent by the Shield Alliance
"Well that explains where he was but still doesn't explain where the secret fucking chamber and we wasted more time with a fucking unimportant letter" CJ stated as he impatiently waited for Driplord to which he signed and drop the paper as they proceed to find the library of the castle
Later they arrived at the castle's library in search of a secret passage to the treasury they are looking for but lucky for them they manage to hold their screams of frustration as they found out that the library was bigger than they expected it to be.
"Motherfucker isn't this world supposed to be around early or mid medieval times why do they have so many goddamn books?" Hellios muttered as they started pulling books off the shelves
"Well probably because this is a fantasy world." Joe started before continuing explaining "Which means there could be dwarf, which according to most fantasies they are the best blacksmith out of all the races all the kingdoms, which means they probably invented the printing press which means books are mass produce." He finished explaining quietly as he continued pulling books from the shelves
"Or they just invented the printing press early or use some kind of magic ass printer." Said Joe as he continued pulling more books off the shelves
"Yeah, you can tell it as the paper of the books aren't parchment." Driplord stated as he inspects a book before throwing it away
"To be honest we should gather more intel about the castle before actually breaking into here in the first place." Said CJ as they all continued to pull books from shelves after shelves
"This is fucking stupid." Joe muttered as he then stopped pulling off books and turned his head towards Driplord "Can we just blow up the walls and find a secret entrance or something?"
"Yeah man I am a fan of most stealth-based heists but since we don't know what the fuck we are doing and there is no one or nothing to tell us what the fuck we are gonna do I suggest we do what Joe said." CJ agreed with Joe on a loud approach
"Okay, I am in it but I don't think it's a good idea to place explosives on medieval-made walls" He protested to which they reluctantly agreed as they don't want to accidentally destroy an entire castle with their high-grade explosives as it would get the attention of whoever ruled this nation or any nation from whatever fantasy world they landed upon and most importantly there don't want to die from their first heist on a virtual fantasy world because of falling debris plus there is probably no replayability on the heist so they have to be careful."
"Okay, so what are we gonna do? Quietly ripped each brick off the walls cause I don't think it is as efficient as ripping the books off these shelves." CJ argued as he finished pulling every last book on the row of shelves he is standing at"
"Well fuck that's the last fucking book we pulled and no secret ass shelf door to open" Said CJ as he kick a shelf before turning to Driplord420 "If the treasury room wasn't hidden and was actually a normal ass room the whole time I am gonna fucking spawn kill you for an hour."
"Okay let's just try looking for another way." Drip suggested but was stopped as he heard sounds behind them to which they pointed their flashlights towards where the sound came from to see it was revealed to be nonother than the lord's daughter Aurora who appeared to slipped and fell which she tried standing up
"Don't you there fucking scre-" He was cut off as she then screamed out loud but was stopped by a book thrown at her head
"Quick knock her out." Said CJ as Driplord quickly switch to his pistol and he smack her in the head with it leaving her unconscious body on the ground
"Shit did anyone hear that?" CJ asked as he turn his attention to the others
"Of course, you fucking idiot that was a loud ass scream right there, louder than Ashley Grahm's screaming from Resident Evil 4." Joe pointed out
"Okay, how about we used the girl as a hostage and forced any guards to give us information on the secret treasury." Driplord suggested which they all agreed to Joe grabbed the unconscious lady as they exited the library
five minutes ago somewhere back in a forest outside the town as a group of five armored horsemen are riding through the dirt road in the dark as the only light there is illuminated by the lantern held by their leader as he appeared to be middle-aged as he had a long black hair reaching around his upper back spine as he also had a scar going down on his left cheek.
"My lord is it wise for us to go in the dark we should have stayed and camped at Primin Village with the other soldiers who set up camp we still had time to reach the town tomorrow morning." Said a young knight behind their leader
"My apologies sir Fidel but I must plan for a preparations to make sure the town must be prepared to defend itself as you know the fact the town Caldor as Lord Cedric said is on the brink of destruction so if another legion's of monster attack it then it would inevitably fall so we must be prepared by the time the enemies attack our town." Lord Alaric as they continued towards the road
"Yes, I understand that my lord but why must we go there since it is already past dark and everyone in the town should be asleep by now and I'm sure that you all need a good rest, my lord." Said the knight Fidel worrying about the lord he serves
"Because I must be at my home by the time I wake up so I can prepare early as I can to protect the people of my land and I won't risk losing the time I need to plan out the defense as I still need to monitor the town for any weak points for the enemies to exploit and I need to make sure orders are out early so we would be prepare by that time the enemy armies advance here." The lord explain to his knight much to his worry but then said. "I told you there is no need for you knights to come you could have rest with the others as I am perfectly fine with going alone."
"I assure you my lord as your loyal knights I must make sure you are at no harm by any bandits nor assassins." Said sir Fidel as the other three knights nod their heads in agreement before he continued. "And not to question your leadership my lord but was it wise to let Sir Lucan lead the army while we return to the castle?"
"Yes, sir Fidel I know you that Sir Lucan may not have the best reputation amongst you and the others but he is one of the only available knights to be a great combatant and shown good leadership as you know that you do have qualities of being a captain but denied as you said it yourself that you are ready." Said Lord Alaric assuring his knight
"But my liege what about Sir Cyrus he was your former squire and has been loyal to you ever since before his knighthood could he not be your second in command leader he has shown to be a great combatant and a good at leading as a small group of soldiers in the battle." Said, Sir Fidel disagreeing with his lord's decision."
"Yes Sir Cyrus may have the potential to be a good leader but he sometimes let his emotions get in the way during battle remember the last time when he went berserk on the bandits after killing those families?" Sir Alaric asked his knight to remember
"Yes but I know what he did was barbaric but you had understood why he did and he is noble and good at heart, unlike Sir Lucan who has shown to be very arrogant, prideful, and most importantly lack respect for women." Sir Fidel responded with venom in his voice expressing his hatred towards the knight
"I understand your frustration Sir Fidel but he is the only one who is capable of leading our troops to battle and I know he causes trouble but not to worry if he dares to cross the line then I might reconsider as for now, he will be second in command of my troops." He said to which Sir Fidel agreed reluctantly but as they got out of the forest and went closer to the town unbeknownst to them someone saw them from the distance
As Helios quickly unmuted and undeafen his discord mic as he informed them "Yo dudes there are incoming tangos towards the castle and I'm 50% sure it is her father so you better make use of the hostage quickly."
"Well, that's convenient cause we just captured her daughter and he is the right guy we need to tell us the location of his treasury as we've been killing the last four guards we spotted as they were either uncooperative or did not know anything." Said Driplord through the mic as Helios then heard what he guest was suppressed gunshots.
"Well make that seven." CJ said informing them of his addition to the kill but then he heard what sounds like bells from the mic
"Well, there goes our stealth." Said Joe from the mic as alarm bells continued to ring through their mics
"FUCKING BULLETS" They heard CJ yell through the mic
"CJ what happen?" Helios asked but no response came from him
Lord Alaric and his knights had quickly entered their town and the alarm bells can be heard from the distance as inside some peasants had awakened and guards alerted as to what was attacking them, he then turns to the nearby guard who appeared to catch his breath and he recognized him as he is one of the guards he saw around his castle and calls out for them
"Guardsman, what happens here?" Lord Alaric asked much to their confusion
"My lord thank goodness you return in time we have dire news Lady Aurora has been held against her will by the infiltrators." Said a guardsman to which then he and his knights had their eyes wide open
"What! how?" He angrily demanded answers as he started to worry for his daughter as she is in the hands of unknown captures "And what are you doing here and shouldn't you be at the castle by the time she was captured and why didn't you save her." He yelled in fury much to the fear of the guardsman
"I'm sorry my lord I tried to save her with two of the other guards but was killed immediately by a dark cloaked figure who held some kind of iron wand shoots out fire magic to which I cowards in fear and manage to get away from." He said as he begged for mercy while Lord Alaric and his knight stood in fear for seconds but manage to compose themselves
"My lord I think we should hurry and save Lady Aurora we don't know what horrors those dark mages would do to her." Said Sir Fidel to which he turned towards him and nodded in agreement to which he turned back to the begging guard
"I will forgive for your cowardice guardsman if you redeem yourself and help up confront these thieves." Said Lord Alaric giving the guard a chance as he nodded and they proceeded to the castle
"What! a guard got away?" Joe asked CJ from the Mic as he appeared to be frustrated
"Hey it's not my fault the fucking AK ran out of bullets and he manage to escape when I pulled out my pistol." CJ responded defending himself as he continued walking through the halls of the castle
"So what should we do about the guard?" Joe asked not sure of what to do next
"Leave the guard he probably has reached the other guards by now and told them about the wonderful products of my nation's little 2nd Amendment." Said Driplord from the mic as CJ moved around the hallway
"Ah yes, nothing like spreading the knowledge of freedom and democracy to medieval peasants." Joe said jokingly which earn a chuckle from everyone
"Alright, guys focus." Said Driplord gaining their attention." CJ you go out and make sure no one enters the castle except the lord himself and tell him we will be meeting with him on lower hallways whichever one it is just tell him to stay in one."
"Roger that." CJ responded as he moved towards the balcony facing the entrance to the castle and look at the gates waiting for arrivals "Uhm what's his name again lord Alric or something?"
"Lord Alaric CJ." Driplord corrected before turning his attention to Joe. "Joe you and I are gonna make sure he cooperates and take us to where their treasury is at but let's go get the girl."
Meanwhile, Lord Alaric was leading his knights along with them gathering nearby guardsmen to follow them as they reach the castle gate but they stop as they spotted a cloaked figure on the top as he stood there menacingly holding something that appeared to be a metal rod weapon which he guesses is the wand the guard talked about but as some of the guards charged in they were instantly killed by the man on the balcony with the weapon he is holding as it shoots out fire magic like what the guardsman said as then the guards who charge in feel to the floor as they saw small holes all over their body with blood coming out and spread all over the ground as the cloaked figure now pointed it towards them
"Don't move a damn muscle or else all you will be six feet under." The figure yelled intimating his knights to stand still as most of them stood in fear mostly the same guard that fleed from him before
"You over there the old guy." He called out for him gaining Alaric's attention "Are you, lord Alaric?"
"Yes, I am indeed him." He replied nervously as he continued pointing his mysterious wand or weapon at him
"Good, you go to the castle my boss wants to discuss business with you in the hallways." He ordered as he continued pointing his wand at them
"Which hallway is it?" He asked as he was not very specific on which hallway it is
"Just find a hallway damn it and stay put in it until my boss will find you." He responded to which he nodded in agreement
"What about my daughter what did you do to her is she safe?" He asked them hoping they would respond to the status of her daughter
"She is fine like I said my boss will discuss it with you so hurry up or he will reconsider the negotiations." The man responded now losing his patients as they then proceed to head towards the castle
"HEY!" The man yelled stopping them in their tracks "The guards stay out there only the lord may enter."
The cloak figure's demand angered the knights but Alaric raised his hands to stop them to which he then said "I'll go alone all of you must stay here for your safety"
"But my lord we can't trust these infiltrators what if they killed you as you enter or yet what if they work for the dark queen." Said sir Fidel unsure about trusting the mysterious infiltrators with unknown magic
"Because sir Fidel, either way, we both die in two of these choices we have if we run in they could kill us or maybe yet kill Lady Aurora, and at least I may have a chance living if we do as he says." Lord Alaric explained as they reluctantly follow his orders to which he then entered alone towards his castle as his knights only stood and watch as the mysterious sorcerer stood above them but before they look at the dark figure's face as they saw he wore some kind of cloth that appeared to have some skull-like art design which they first thought was an actual skull
"Alright now let's wake up the girl." Said Helios as they arrived at what appeared to be the girl's room she is hogtied by the same ropes they used before and placed on the ground
"Hold up." Joe interrupted as they stopped"What are we gonna do about the used bullets?"
"What do you mean?" Driplord asked confused about his question
"What I mean is that we been leaving evidence of our entrance such as the bullet casing that was ejected from our guns along with the bullet that will be found soon in the bullets of the guards we killed." Joe explained much to the realization of Driplord as he was wide eye and was about to slap his face
"Oh shit, that would a problem." He said and he then move around the room contemplating what they should do
"Do be honest we should have been more prepared." Said Joe as unbeknownst to them the unconscious lady was moving
"Well sorry, Joe it ain't my fault we are sent to some medieval era map, and also there were no Lesters or heist boards to inform me of any mandatory prep items or any preps for that matter." Driplord responded as the lady started to open her eyes as she caught a glimpse of her kidnappers she saw them wearing all black under their brown cloaks
"Well, then we should have fucking case this place more, gather information or better yet gather more needed equipment." Joe argued with Driplord that they obviously did not notice the awakened Aurora
"Okay okay fine whatever let's just bring the girl and use her as a bargaining chip we will deal with consequences later." As he said it she began to squirm but unfortunately, she realize she was hogtied as then her grunts gain the attention of Driplord and Helios
"Wait the girl is awake, it seems that we've been wasting our time." Driplord informed Joe as they look at her to which they proceed to move toward her
"Get away from me you savages." She yelled at them but they gave no response "You are not getting away from thi-"
"Blah blah blah, we don't give a shit." Said the figure who has a cloth on his mouth that has a what looks like a drawing of a jaw of a skull as he wore some kind of dark eyewear on his eyes
"Okay, let's get straight to the point." Said the figure who has a cloth mask "We are here rob you we want your treasury blah blah blah, we will use you as a threat towards your father blah blah and we take your stuff." He said nonchalantly making her angry at his disrespect towards her as he then pulled her out and drag her by the back of her gown as she skidded on the floor helplessly
"My father will have your head do you know who I am." She threatened them only for them to laugh
"Yeah, yeah, you are a whore, a bitch, and a brat made by the local lord of this land." The half skull mask-wearing man said uncaringly for her threats
"And also your father is here anyway so good thing for us as we have a peace treaty on our hands with demands of gold on it." Said the man confusing her and not understanding what he said
"What do you mean." She demanded
"It means you are the 'treaty' needed to get us the gold bitch." Said Joe much to her anger
"Wow we know you are some brat birth by your parents but we never thought you were this stupid." Driplord420 mocked her as she got agitated "I wonder which parent's blood gave you the stupidy and my guess is your mother?"
"How dare you insult my mother did yours ever teach you how to treat a lady and I doubt any woman would love a man like you." She continued hurling insults at one of her captors
"Harsh, but for your information, my parent saw me as a disappointment from the moment I was born yet they love unconditionally and I doubt your parents will love you if they gave birth to a failure." He responded as she tried to squirm angrily "And also I do in fact already have a woman and she looks ten times beautiful that you bitch plus even if we don't have a woman we still don't want your ugly ass."
"Damn you all the men in this lands love me and would stare at me from a great distance and you must be an idiot for comparing me to some commoner woman." She continued to respond to them
"Whoever those men are must either be desperate enough to look at a woman that ugly or they are that blind to see it" Drilord replied as she continued to squirm hoping to hit him as they continued through more hallways down the stairs until they reach the lower levers until they now stop at the main hallway where they saw her father now stood waiting for them
"Well, at least we found him on the first try." Joe muttered to himself
"Father help me." Aurora cried out for help from her father
"Aurora are you okay did they hurt you?" Her father asked worryingly
"Obviously we just literally drag your daughter from her room through stairs until these hallways for Christ's Sake." Said Driplord stating the obvious towards her father he gritted his teeth trying to hold his anger
"What do you want from me?" He asked with bits of anger in his voice
"Alright then Lord Alaric Geneve- however, your is pronounce all we want is your treasury and we will take what we need and we will be off our marry with nobody at harm at the making of this robbery well except for the guards of course and your daughter over here." Driplord420 explained nonchalantly much to their anger due to their calm demeanor not caring for the death and harm they cause to NPCs
"So if you want your daughter to see her wedding then I suggest you cooperate and take us to the treasury." Joe demanded as then pointed his pistol at her head
"Okay okay please don't harm I will agree to your terms." He concedes in defeat much to the joys of the two players
"Wonderful now you take to wherever it is." Said Driplord but was interrupted by a tap on his shoulder
"Uhm Drip we kinda left the chest in her room." Joe remembered as Driplord facepalm himself
"Well, let's just let CJ grab it but first where is the passage to it anyway?" Driplord asked Lord Alaric
"It is in the library." He responded as both of them are now Widemouth underneath their mask
"Motherfucker did we miss a book or something?" Driplord muttered as he then unmute his mic. "You CJ you there?"
"Yeah, I am here still watching some idiots talking and staring at me." He responded much to the confusion of the Lord and her daughter as they stared at him talking to what appeared to be no one
"Good now heads to the library we missed something there and before that grab a chest from the bitch's room." Lord Alaric and Lady Aurora both ignore the insult at the end as they are confused about who is he talking to thinking he is crazy or either is talking to entities they do not see but are too afraid to ask
"And what will I do with the knights and not-so-shiny armor below me?" CJ asked through the mic as he stared down at the NPCs
"Just leave them threaten them to not enter." Driplord responded as CJ just shrugged it off and do as he says and proceeds to point his gun at them
"Alright, all you are going stay there and behave while I go inside and finish things up, and if anyone of you dares enters then I'll be sure both the lord and her daughter will eat lead by the time you guys even draw your swords." CJ said as then leaves and enters the castle passing some hallways to find the damsels room to find the chest
He continued to some hallways and check for each room and chamber until he found her room and took the chest as he proceed to the library to see the two of them standing waiting for him along with the hostages
"Hey what took you so long?" Joe asked waiting for his answer
"Don't blame me this castle is a fucking maze and non of us even told us where her room was." He defended himself as Joe turned his attention
"Now show us the way oh great lord." He mockingly ordered him as they then followed him into an empty shelf in the corner of a wall as he then proceeded to move it sideways and slide it through the corner wall revealing to them a secret passageway much to their annoyance
"Well come on guys no time for internal screaming and time for looting." Said Driplord as they proceed to the secret passage as at the end of the hallway they saw a door and they open it to see tons of gold of may kind from shelves to tables such as coins, ingots, jewelry and etc
"Alright guys go grab gold but mostly the coins and ingots cause we need some for spending." Driplord order as they proceed to put gold in their sacks and the chest leaving only 1/3 of gold in the room as they observe how much they took
"Hey Helios get over here we got the gold and we are leaving." He called out for Helios in the voice chat
"Roger that I'm there where is the extraction point?" Helios asked as he started the helicopter
"Around the back walls of the castle to avoid less sighting of your chopper to which I signal you with a flair." He said as they turn to leave the passageway but before that, he turns to the Lord and her daughter."
'And also non of you saw us okay." He started threatening the nobles as they listen "make sure no word of our magic, weapons, what we wear or what looks like spread and lastly make sure any foreign evidence we left must be destroyed or any word of it comes out and if the people ask what happened, tell then that three thieves broke in here and took your treasure understood." to which was respond with a nod by the Lord
"Okay, and a single comes out of about this then we will return with gravestones with your name on it." Driplord finished as they agreed in fear of their lives as they exited out of the treasury room
They proceed to pass through hallways through the castle as they then find their exit back to the walls and proceed to move around on the back area to which he then fired a flair as then a red light appeared to the sky unbeknownst to them many other civilians saw the light much to their fear and confusion
"Alright do you see it and where are you?" Driplord asked as they then look up to see Helios' Volatos descending above them as hovered around the railings
"Alright, you three get the gold in fast." Helios said through the chat as Joe opened the door they then placed the chest inside the back passenger of the Volatus as both CJ and Joe entered while Driplord entered the co-pilot seat as they quickly flew off to distance hoping few people spotted them
Meanwhile back at the castle, many guards had stormed the castle as Lord Alaric and Lady Aurora had been gotten out safely as they are escorted by his knights as they sat outside the palace surrounded by guards
"Are you alright my daughter how do feel?" Alaric asked his daughter for any injuries
"Yeah I am fine but I still don't understand why you listen to them? We should report this to the Shield Alliance they may what to do and will make sure those bandits will be hand" His daughter respond with anger as to why he agreed to their terms he only stared at her with sadness in his eyes
"I'm sorry my daughter but it is the only wise we have, we must be careful or we suffer the consequences if we do." He responded but then was interrupted as he heard footsteps behind
"My lord look what we found." Said a knight as he showed him what looks like a small golden cylinder-like material as there is a hole on one end of it "We found this around the castle and more of them are still in search"
'Lastly, make sure any foreign evidence we left must be destroyed' He thought back to what the thief said and he then made a decision "If you find any of this make sure all of it is found and make sure no word about this comes out."
"Are you sure about this my lord?" The knight asked with reluctance
"Yes and also if a commoner got their hands on this then take it from them under my orders." Alaric said much to the knight reluctant
"As you wish my lord." He responded before leaving
"Are you sure you made the right decision father?" His daughter asked with doubt in her mind as her father did not respond as stuck in his thoughts
"Yeah, yeah, hunnid thousand on the coup yeah yeah I'm with some killer my n#ggas'll load up and shoot, yeah, yeah" As music was played in the background the players were tossing gold around celebrating their success on robbing the castle in the forest where their temporary hideout is located
"Fuck yeah we did it boys we succeed in our first heist in this weird fucking Isekai world." Said Driplord as they continued to celebrate their successful heist
"You know this heist gave me a new appreciation of the prep missions of most heists even the ones that are harder than the fucking heist itself." Said Joe remembering all the prep missions from heists as they all laugh
"Well since we are done with our little heist what's next?" Helios asked as they all stopped along with the music in the background as they all started to contemplate what to do next
"I don't know I never thought about it when we get this far." Driplord responded as they began to awkwardly stare at each other waiting for one of them to have ideas
"Well, how the thing we needed the most was a goddamn hideout so we can fucking discard the piece of shit CJ brought." Helios suggested as he ended it by insulting CJ's broken carriage hideout
"And I think we should you know start some 'businesses' around this part if you know what I mean?" Joe suggested das they maliciously agreed with him
"Also I think we exchange some gold for silver cause uhm like gold is basically a hundred dollars or probably a thousand for that matter here in the medieval fantasy world or something so I suggest we find someone to exchange some gold for silver." Helios Suggested as pointed at their golden rewards
"Wait and where are you even gonna exchange it better yet how are you gonna explain the origin of the money or where it came from?" CJ asked as they continue to think
"Well, we will do what most criminals do with their money." Said Joe as figured out their next plan "We, will launder it"
"Seems like a pretty good idea but did money laundering even exist in medieval ages?" Helios asked
"Well yes Helios money laundering, in fact, existed medieval era but it wasn't as big as the modern ones tho well it wasn't much of use back then until the Mafia used it to hide their various not so legal paychecks." Joe responded to the question as Helios was satisfied with the answer
"Well, then how are we virtual modern criminals are going to launder medieval money in a medieval world?" SeniorCJTrain asked waiting for an answer by Driplord420
"Okay how about we do it tomorrow cause I can feel my real body getting tired and also I still need to make my dinner already and it's already 7 pm in here already I need to make my dinner." Driplord stated as he can feel the exhaust and hunger on his body
"Yeah me too cause my mom is making steak dinner so I better head out as well." Said Helios as they decided to end their fun until the next day
"Okay, we will just go and play different games for a while cause it would be no fun if you guys complain as we did crime shit here and there." Said CJ as they all laugh
"Well before you guys leave what kind of criminal group are we gonna be anyway?" Joe asked as they all began to choose
"How about a cartel?" CJ suggested much to their looks of disagreement
"Nah dude they are basically drug suppliers and like we all agreed we are not selling drugs to medieval peasants." Said Helios as CJ then change his mind reminded of their talk about cocaine
"Yeah forgot about that." CJ muttered
"Plus we will be targeted by a bunch of lonely ass heisters." Driplord chuckled at his own joke
"How about a biker gang?" Joe asked
"Dude we are in a medieval fantasy world how are we supposed to go unnoticed with fucking horselike Metal ass vehicles also I don't think substituting to a horse gang would be any cooler." Said Helios as they are uninterested in his suggestion
"Okay how about a Mob or a Mafia well they do have cool outfits." Driplord suggest as the three of them think for a second before they nodded in agreement
"Yeah that could work in a medieval work cause crime family after all and they do look cool in suits." Helios contemplates as he looks at the pros of Driplorrd's suggestion
"Plus they also have cool fucking quotes to use on medieval peasants." Said CJ as he then maliciously grin imagining all the probable ways to intimate NPCs
"Okay, so we all agreed then?" Joe asked as they nodded their heads in agreement
"Yep, then what will be the name of our crime family anyway like we should have a name to be known by?" Helios asked as they all began to choose a name
"How about the Online crime family?" Joe suggested as they all stared at him dumbfounded much to his confusion
"What we are not gonna waste more time arguing over name plus it is simple and lazy but at least it's unique to this world thou." Joe defended himself from the dumbfounded stares of his comrades
"Okay I'm already hungry we can just continue this tomorrow or when all of us are online for that matter." Said Drip as he continue to feel the hunger in his stomach
"Okay well fuck you guys and see you tomorrow." Said Helios as he then disappeared then a message appeared on their scream
OmegaHelios300 left
"Sayonara sucker." Driplord says his goodbye which was followed up by his disappearance
Driplord420 left
"Well, they're gone." Joe said as awkwardly stand and stared at each other
"Imma goes bury our treasure underneath our 'hideout' before I leave to install the mod menu." Said CJ then a shovel appeared in his hands as he proceed to move the carriage.
"Well, Imma go play Battlefield while you do what." Said Joe as he then disappeared as well leaving SeniorCJTrain alone with his shovel
Joe_the_Carver left
"Goddammit, well it's just me doing all the fucking work" CJ muttered to himself as he proceed to dig the dirt on the ground underneath the only light coming from the lantern within the cold dark, and silent woods
