My RPG Character Came to Real Life and is Trying to Kill Me

Chapter 4 - My RPG Character is Trying to Kill Me

Mao felt her esophagus and windpipe becoming brutally compressed like a pair of socks being wrung together. Under the constriction of Lord Kaja's gauntlets, there was no room for her tongue as it protruded out of her tiny mouth.

"Witch, what spell did you use?"

Kaja's lips seemed to barely move as he spoke, his eyes a pair of dark green abysses.

"You better tell me how I got here and truthfully, or I'll end your life as if reaping a blade of grass."

It can't be, Mao thought. But the proof was right before her and on her neck, choking her to death.

It was only in the grip of imminent destruction did she realize how different their worlds were. He may have looked handsome and human, but he was a video game character. He may have been a video game character, but in his world he killed and took lives as a daily means to an end.

I was abandoned by my runaway main Lord Kaja from Endless Eternity then saved by him... and now my RPG character is trying to kill me!

What a crazy world we all live in! The irony itself was almost enough to kill her. Her hands tugged futilely at his grip, to no avail.

How am I supposed to talk if I can't speak?!

Desperate for air, her face was beginning to lose its color and her eyes were beginning to roll into the back of her head.

At this moment, Lord Kaja was assaulted by the worst wave of nausea he ever felt in his life.

"Fuck," he cursed. "This sensation...it's back!"

This time, the anxiety and feeling of danger was much worse. Every hair on his body stood on end, the nerves screaming to find safety. The color in his vision immediately drained until the world was a black and white monochrome- he felt like he was going to faint.

"No, I must be strong. What if I power through this nausea?" Kaja tightened his grip as hard as he could.

"Aghh..." The pain was going to kill him first. He couldn't do it!

Kaja loosened his grip, and Mao bent over the floor and vomited. Her poor ramen dinner splattered just centimeters away from Lord Kaja's boots, and she coughed piteously. The Warrior Godking seemingly did not budge as he waited for her to finish coughing and wipe her mouth, as the sensation that was assaulting his own brain went away. He came to understood that, for an unknown reason, he cannot kill this girl- her life being threatened corresponded to the peril of his well-being as well.

"Speak. What teleportation did you use? Where did you hide my bag? Where did you take my spirit stones?"

In Dalmuria, Kaja was able to squeeze a sizeable amount of useful things into his hydraskin bag, which could magically compress and carry items far exceeding its appearance to a certain limit. Spirit stones were used as runic currency to trade for those skilled in teleportation magic or to use yourself if you were skilled at sorcery.

"This...isn't Dalmuria," Mao said with effort.

Kaja looked like he was beginning to grasp the full meaning of her words, but then quickly reverted to his stone poker face.

"You...you actually hurt me!" Mao began to cry in anger. Tears began to spill out of her sockets, as she covered them shamefully.

"Were you...were you actually trying to kill me?" Mao managed to squeeze the words out of her throat.

The Godking's cold expression told her all she needed to know.

"No..." she sobbed, for a long time. "No...you actually tried to kill me...your creator."

The Godking was all of a sudden assaulted by the previous feeling again.

"Ah, shit..." He was staggering on his knees as well. "No way, I get this feeling when she's crying too?!"

"Okay, okay!" Lord Kaja desperately gripped Mao's tiny shoulders in the closest semblance to a hug he could muster.

"Just...please... stop crying."

Mao sniffled for a bit. The nausea correspondingly halted for Kaja as well.

"Let's go inside, I-I'll explain." Mao said.

Lord Kaja sat on a chair Mao brought from the kitchen table. He was looking over Mao's shoulder at the computer screen.

"Um... This is a computer. What you're looking at is the monitor."

Mao tried to be as concise and simple in her explanations as possible. Lord Kaja tried to pay attention to every little motion she took, from her clicking the power button on her computer, to her typing on the strange keyboard thing to log in with her password.

"When I start this game up," she clicked on the Endless Eternity logo on her desktop, which was a runic symbol. "You'll see Dalmuria, the world you came from!"

The smile quickly disappeared on her face. As if suddenly afraid he would do something rash, she turned to look at the Lord Kaja on her bed, but the Godking just simply sat there and watched.

"Whew, a-anyway," she stammered. "This is the character selection screen, and...huh?"

Lord Kaja's name was there, but the avatar for his character wasn't. The current Lord Kaja looked over Mao's shoulder and recognized his name in Japanese on the screen, but didn't understand that something was missing.

"This can't be...where did- um, okay, Bluekero and Miku666 are still there."

The girl was scrolling through the screen called "Character selection," and Lord Kaja recognized a healer class and a thief class, though he had never encountered these people before.

"Perhaps this is where imprisoned souls are kept?" The Godking speculated.

Mao scrolled back to "Lord Kaya," where only the name was visible and an empty character portrait presented itself.

She pressed the "Play" button.
