The Plaza Incident

When they arrived at the village, the class were surprised to see the village (except for Alvin, Vivi, and Fadil). The village looks very different from where they came from. Without any further thought, they started to explore every corner of the village: the library, the market, the farm, and other places. They also actively asked about everything that was on their minds.

But different from Vivi, Alvin, and Fadil's reports, the villagers answered their questions just like normal people. They didn't repeat their answers like robots. The members of the wood carving technique class gathered in the village plaza, Sharing their findings.

"With the results we found, we can't prove whether they're NPCs or not," Mike said seriously. "They act and answer our questions just like normal humans, and their emotions feel very natural."

"So who are they?" Maya asked with a frown.

Shrugging his shoulders, "I don't know, maybe the other employees are acting." Mike said.

At Mike's answer, Zane smirked "That sounds like it makes sense Mike. Let's just say we went to a theme park, and met a lot of those stupid mascots, right?"

Rudy clenched his hand into a fist and smacked his other palm like a judge tapping his gavel. "I just remembered, why didn't anyone ask? Who are they?"

Erika looked around, "I already did that...".

"Their only answer is 'I'm a villager.' What else do you expect."

"That means we've been tricked by those three musketeers, right?" Zane said, chewing on his apple with his eyebrows together,

"Ohoho you piece of shit Zane, you haven't seen this yet," replied Vivi while clenching her fist. She swung the fist back and hit a village man's head so hard that he fell down.

Oh my, guys, look at that!" Vivi pointed at the man who was knocked down.

Seeing Vivi hit the man Rudy with his eyes widened " Of course he's angry, you dummy!"

"No, that's not it," said Vivi while pointing at something even stranger. " That man is glowing in red!"

Her classmates looked at Vivi with confusion. "Nothing strange," Maya replied while tilting her head.

The man then stood up slowly "Argh... You are such a freak!!! how dare you!!!" while holding his swollen cheek.

"That gentleman, what happened to him?" asked a village youth while watching the knocked man with interest.

"Princess Vivi from the Wood Carving Technique class, beat him up, sir..." Rudy replied while pointing at Vivi with his thumb.

"Gosh lady, you can't do that." the young man's face turned red.

"Gosh Vivi, I know this, hahahah." Rudy smiled at the scene. He clenched his fist and landed a hard punch on the young man. The young man collapsed to the ground.

"Arghh...You fucking bastard!!!" with a heavy breath the young man tried to get back up.

Rudy's eyes widened as he pointed at the young man "Gosh he's turning red!!!"

"Hey, you can't just leave like that!!!" said one of the villagers. "What a bunch of damn youths!!!" Angry cheers engulfed the village square, and soon fruits, dirt, stones, and even shoes were thrown at them.

Mike quickly ordered his classmates, " We're going back, guys! Run!!!"
