The Cursed Gamer, Book 1

138: Plans and Executions (3)

Neji had put her to sleep by himself, so she won't wake up anytime soon. But he still double checked, after which, he made his way into the kitchen.

"You mean like those Main Characters from the mangas that mommy keeps reading?"

Neji nodded, standing in front of the oven as he took out a classic-looking bomb, except it was golden in colour.

It was a [Mana Bomb], an uncommon-ranked item that's dropped in the dungeon. When this bomb is lit, it does a decent amount of destruction.

Slowly, he put it in the oven and closed the lid.

Since it's a [Magic Bomb] Neji could and had set a timer of when it would blast, and before that time the bomb wouldn't burst no matter how hot the oven became. He was only putting it inside the oven to make sure if people investigated, they'd think the cause of the soon-to-happen explosion was the oven. Meaning, an accident.

The timer of the bomb was set to 4:59 minutes, which started to tickle the moment Neji closed the lid of the oven.

Immediately after closing the oven, he went back to the room where Izuku's mother was and put a few sleeping pills and pain-killer pills inside her mouth so that she'll stay unconscious even though she was going to feel pain soon.

"Kurai, do it." He asked Kurai as he wore white hands gloves.

Kurai nodded and widened her mouth before throwing a ball of fire on Inko's body.

The woman groaned as her clothes burned, but Kurai made the fire non-lethal enough for her skin to only get a 1st-degree burn.

When that was done, some parts of her clothes charred and some still intact, Neji grabbed her burning hot body and walked outside the house.

Neji assumed this apartment was set by All for One, which was why there didn't live many people in it to make things convenient for Izuku to contact the League without anyone eavesdropping. This was the 23rd floor and the only other people in this building were on the 10th floor and below, so the blast wouldn't cause them any harm.

Neji waited far outside the room that Izuku's family lived in, and he waited a bit more until the time went up and...

Boom~!

A loud fiery explosion happened in the room, causing the main door to flung outside at a breakneck speed and fire from within it.

Neji immediately ran with Inko in his arms and loudly dropped her on her ground beside the door, his motion caused her body to roll and hit the border of the floor in a way that people would assume she flung from inside the room and dropped here.

"Good. Now, cast [Stealth]." Neji ordered Kurai who nodded and did so.

After that, Neji blasted his hands and flung out from the apartment at a speed that normal people could only hear, but they will simply assume the sound was a secondary explosion.

After flying for a minute, Neji opened his MiniMap to look for dungeons around the area. Neji wanted to kill Izuku asap, but he had a bad feeling about trying to murder the Main Character of the world while being inside the world, so he was going to his world, the gamer's sub-deminsion.

Once he found one that suited his taste, he flew there immediately.

The area where the dungeon was located was an old and abandoned amusement park, and the gate to the dungeon was inside a Haunted House. Neji already knew what was inside this dungeon because he came here once before when he was journeying with Kimi.

But from the torn posters stuck on the wall, anyone could guess what type of monsters and ghosts would be inside this [Lucid Horror] dungeon.

Honestly, Midoriya would have been granted a painless death if he wasn't planning to harm Neji's parents. But now, his death was going to be pretty... 'chaotic'.

Neji pushed the dungeon gate open, just as a red and purple light engulfed him and Kurai immediately. Seconds later, as the light dissipated, the two of them reappeared inside a dead forest.

The forest was filled with dead trees, and ghostly ethereal dead bodies were hanging from some of the trees. Neji could feel some of the bodies twitch and move their eyes on him, but they went back to normal immediately after Neji wore his [Ring of Invisibility (Undead Only)]. Kurai, being a member of a Death God's race, had a passive that allowed her to stay out of unintelligent undeads' hostility as long as she didn't attack them first.

Neji and Kurai didn't heed the ghost any attention and instead, Neji yanked out Izuku's body from inside his inventory.

With a loud thud, Izuku fell face-first on the ground just as Neji leapt up in the air, going above the haunted trees and rising high above Izuku's head.

Slowly, with a grunt, Izuku woke up...

Author's Note: Unlike Neji, Izuku didn't see enough Detroit Urban Survival Training vids. Really unlucky.
