Avatar Online-Chapter 46: You Did This To Yourself

Black Rose's scream alarmed all the players in the General Store and their eyes widened at the scene.

"What the fuck?!" Men cursed with a frown and Liu Ye wasn't surprised at all.

His Ice Serpent was pressed against Black Rose's neck while his hand was groping on her chest. Anyone normal would think that Liu Ye was assaulting her but he knew he was being set up by her.

"Well done," Liu Ye praised while letting her go and stepped out of the pod. "You managed to put me on the spot in front of everyone. That's honestly your best attempt at fucking with me."

"W-what…?" Black Rose questioned innocently as she covered her chest. "I was simply using the market when you appeared out of nowhere and pinned me to the chair… You threatened me with a dagger as you grabbed my chest…"

Her voice was shaky, gaining the sympathy of the crowd.

"Hey!" Two men stepped forward as they grabbed Liu Ye's shoulder. "Just cause you got a few first clears doesn't mean you can assault women!"

They tried to pull him back to face them but Liu Ye didn't even budge as Water Whip threatened to slap them. Both immediately backed away while Liu Ye didn't even spare them a glance.

He focused on Black Rose who kept getting in his way as if it was her life mission to mess with him.

"Didn't you already learn a lesson the first time?" Liu Ye asked coldly. "How many times will you annoy me? Not only do you expose my identity in real life but you also try to frame me in the game. How far will you go before you stop?"

He thought that her voice of reason would advise her to stop pretending and they could finish this matter peacefully yet she continued to act.

"F-frame…?" Black Rose repeated while shivering. "Are you saying I forced you to touch me…?"

Normally, Liu Ye wouldn't care what other people think about him but this was a serious accusation that could blow out of proportion if not solved. He had no other choice but to end her.

"Report me then," Liu Ye proposed calmly. "Open your profile and report me. An admin will appear and check what really happened."

Liu Ye had no idea how the report system really worked but he knew that Black Rose wouldn't do it. He just had to call her bluff in front of everyone until she admits the truth.

"Report?" Black Rose froze suspiciously but before she could speak, Liu Ye cut her off.

"Yes, report me. I will ask the admin to show exactly what happened while I was gone," Liu Ye explained to everyone. "What? Are you scared that the truth will come out? You and I both know that you were already messed up when I appeared back from clearing the Dungeon."

The crowd seemed to like that idea as the two men from before called out eagerly, "Why are you hesitating? Report him."

"Let's all see what happened."

Black Rose looked down for a good 10 seconds before looking back up with tears at the corners of her eyes.

"I'm hurt... but I'm not stupid. Everyone knows you have the Red Dragon Triad behind you," Black Rose argued. "If I get him banned, they will hunt me down in real life and kill me… I don't want to die…"

Her act was first class but Liu Ye wasn't even moved.

"Everyone, check her outfit. She says that I assaulted her but she forgot where we are," Liu Ye announced as reached for his armor and unbuttoned one of the leather straps that held it together. "You can check it on yourself but only the owner of the equipped armor can mess with it. In other words, I wouldn't be able to strip her like this and she did it herself."

He then walked up to the man behind him and demonstrated it live. No matter how hard he pulled, nothing happened. Immediately the gazes of the crowd fell on Black Rose. Anyone would feel as if they have been scammed.

"This is not all," Liu Ye continued as he pulled out her bound sword that he took away from her. "If you want to know her reasoning, it's because of this sword. I killed her after she messed with me and took her items. Now she is trying to have her revenge on me."

Black Rose was already panicking but her stubbornness was too strong to simply give up and admit her defeat.

"That's a pretty story you have told us but too bad it's all false," Black Rose countered. "You naturally used my own hand to uncover my armor so you can touch me. Do you think the people here are stupid and can't see through your lies? Did you get all those achievements using bugs as well?"

"Hahaha, false?" Liu Ye asked back while laughing. "I guess I don't need this sword anymore then."

He ignored her confusion and walked towards the trash can used for unwanted items.

"Since it's not yours, I have no use for it anymore. I will simply delete it," Liu Ye explained as he hovered it above the metal basket. Since Black Rose was hell-bent on ruining him, he could do whatever he wanted without guilt.

The crowd was already ultimately confused on who was right and who was wrong so they remained quiet while watching the confrontation.

Black Rose swiftly exited the pod to check his actions and she gulped seeing her sword close to being deleted.

"You have one last chance to tell everyone that you are a liar," Liu Ye called out while testing the trash can with a small potion. Immediately as he threw it inside, the potion turned into pixels and disappeared from the game.

"I will count to three," Liu Ye muttered as he grabbed the hilt using only his two fingers. "If you admit the truth, I will give you the sword back."

"1…"

"2…"

Black Rose grew visually anxious as he counted down. When he reached 2, Liu Ye didn't wait for 3 and simply released the sword from his fingers.

"Nooooooooo!"

Black Rose cried out as the sword fell only to freeze when Liu Ye caught it again in the last millisecond. She knew her cover was blown and he won this battle.

"Fine! I lied! I wanted to set you up!" Black Rose shouted while eyeing her sword. "You killed me and took my things! Give it bac—"

Liu Ye didn't even let her finish when he dropped the sword again, this time for good. She dropped to her knees while he walked towards the exit without looking back at her.

"You did this to yourself."
