Chapter 192: Reginald

I headed up the stairs and found the girls already in bed and waiting for me.

"Nope, get the hell out of bed, we are going to kill the fish!"

"But, we need our beauty sleep, Dave!" Grace complained.

"Rabbits don't exist, let's go."

"What's got you in such a rush?" Kierra asked with a worried expression. 

"Nothing bad, I just figured out that we don't need to stay in this game for much longer. Personally, I think this is cool and all, but we have things to do, so let's push to get all the members fast, if we do this right we could be ould of this game within two days, and you could be all sitting in the Hall of Gods."

"Seriously? What made you come to this conclusion?" Grace questioned me, but I put up my hands. 

"I can't reveal my sources, just know I have them and trust me, okay? There are a lot of things at play and we are coming up to the mother of all boss fights after the next two worlds. We need to finish, so, Vamos!"

I signaled and they followed, and I led us out of the tavern, waving to the bar owner and the man who raised his glass forward without turning in a toasting gesture. The NPC never moved, so that's the best I would get, but I knew what needed to be done, power and faster. 

"Get ready, the mission says a Mecha Barracuda but we should expect trouble. MainFrame knows what we are trying to do, there is no way we can hide that info from him, but he has to play by the rules. I will play bait and kill the small ones, but then you will have to watch for the big bastard, and give me a warning and then you can jump it while I distract it, but take your potions of has and make sure you have the rings of Recovery to the counteract the LimitBreak fatigue. You have to kill it fast and effortlessly so he gets angry."

"And why do we want to make him angry?. This is the thing that has been trying to kill us, right?"

"Yes, but I have a plan to get us out of the game faster, but we need to make it mad first, after that we will see just how angry this robot is going to get."

I didn't want to go into detail, no point. There wasn't much to the plan, just make MainFrame angry enough that he overplayed his hand and cheats. That was the key, getting MainFrame to break the rules that it is so enthusiastic about. It wasn't the best idea, but, if I could get us to a high enough level, we could rush the end boss.

I looked at the girls, and they had worried looks on their faces, but I wasn't worried. After talking with Dan, things were finally starting to not really make sense, but I felt more directed than I have ever been. I signaled Mom, and she teleported us to the location for the mission, making us instantly reappear in a deep and colorful reef.

'Remember, hard and fast. Make it look easy and make jokes about him. We want this thing red hot mad, or it won't work. I don't even really know if it will work, but it is the best plan I have so far.'

'I don't really think it is what you would call a plan, more of a shot in the dark while hoping we don't die.' -Grace.

'Yes, but get ready, I can see the single lone mecha fish over there, and it's alone. Try not to let me get eaten this time!'

I raced forwards without waiting for any confirmation, I would just have to hope they were ready. I transformed into my dragon form and turned on the gas with my propulsion system. I aimed directly at the unsuspecting Mecha-Barracuda, it never ween me coming.

[Bite]

I like a rocket sled on rails, I burned forward and smashed through the metal fish and blew it to pieces. The fish had no time to react, and I started laughing like a hyena as soon as I slowed down.

[Rank F] Achieved!

"Ha, what a pathetic monster, this is the best this game can do? I guess my Harem System is just too much for the big bad old MainFrame,"

'Roll left Dave!' -Kierra.

I just narrowly dodged a massive javelin that stabbed into the sand sea bottom, After two more they stopped and then erupted into tentacles. The spears were actually Giant squid, one of the biggest creatures in the sea. Wow, I thought this is what we would be getting out of MainFrame after we made it. Maybe we were biting off a bit more than we could chew, but it was too late to stop it now.

The second the first squid that came alive was instantly destroyed by...rockets, Kierra's whale form was alive with rockets rushing all three monsters. Grave had come over to join and help me, but there was no need, Kierra had cleaned the house before any of the monsters could even unfold. Grace hadn't used her potion yet, so where were still more than ready for whatever was thrown at us.

ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME KILL YOU?

'Don't be cheeky, to kill us you would have to send something that could actually give us a run for our money, not these fancy metal spears! I hear you're the head of the final world, does that mean all your monsters there is this weak? It would be strange to know that the all and powerful MainFrame, who always sticks his nose where it doesn't belong, is so easily defeated.'

YOU ARE THE CHEATER DAVE AND I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO ME.

'Done to you? What are you talking about? You're a computer, I have never played any games with you, I think I would have remembered a vindictive bastard that never would leave...me..wait, no. Who is this? This isn't MainFrame, that was a computer program without…'

THIS IS YOUR FAULT! I AM STUCK IN THIS MACHINE NOW! AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU!

Oh great, I did not like where this was going. Would the Game Masters or founders really do that? Was this Fate? He should have been frozen, but I couldn't put it past them to do something like this. Did that mean they knew what I was trying to do already? Fuck, too many questions and not enough time to think them through!

I WILL MAKE YOU PAY FOR GETTING MY SON FROZEN YOU STUPID WHORE, DAVE! I TOLD THEM ALL TO MAKE MY SON THE HERO, BUT NO, THEY CHOOSE YOU INSTEAD, THE STUPID AND FUNNY, DAVE! I WILL KILL YOU AND THEN THEY WILL BE FORCED TO RELEASE MY SON TO TAKE YOUR PLACE!

And the bread basket has spoken, but the feeling in the water was starting to change. I was actually heating up, and not just because of the hot topic. Things were starting to push out of the sand and I was confused as to what they were, but then the spikes that were poking up started to rise, together. A massive horned demon pulled itself out of the sand, but I had just got the hold my beer act from Grace, as she handed me the empty bottle of the potion of haste.

Instantly the demon was a series of bright lines and then it slid apart, not even spilling any blood, just exploding in a rain of black particles. Grace was already back beside me like she had never gone anywhere.

"Wow, So this is the fury of the great Reginold, my my, maybe you should come back down here and I could give you another haircut?"

NO!!! THAT'S IT, GAME OVER FOR YOU HAREM HERO! I WILL SEND THE END BOSS AND THEN IT'S TIME TO DIE!

What? 

"Kierra, get back here, now!"

Kierra, swam back and we joined back up, this was bad. I was hoping to get him to level us up fast so I could speed fuck my way out of this game and not worry about the damn computer trying to kill the girls when I started mating like crazy, but this would end the game, without me getting the rest of the girls.

Suddenly, a rift opened up in front of us, like a rip in reality. Four massive black arms pulled out of the hole, dragging a long scaly tail over forty meters long, and huge purple crystals jutted from the things back, but the worst was its faces. Two gigantic heads with way too many eyes fixated on me, and I started to move, pushing the girls out of the way.

*WAANN*

I could feel the superheated water behind me as I pushed the girls with my face. This was not good, and not part of the plan, but battle plans were only good until you stepped onto the battlefield. I downed the haste potion and then yelled at the girls.

"Take cover! I will try to deal with this, but I need you two to find a mate and activate the mating sequence! We have 8 other girls still trapped in the game and Reginold is trying to get us out before we can get them so you need to find mates and activate them so I can bring them into the game before we finish!"

I turned back to the Gigantic monolith of a monster that was preparing another attack. Okay, so, now I had to try and not kill the monster, and not get killed myself! On the bright side, I was about to have a lot of snu snu in my future! Activate Rank F evolution!
