Chapter 628: VV4, 22 - Letter of Recommendation

VV4, 22 - Letter of Recommendation

Dylan respawned somewhere in the city, the sight of airships riding on steam in his sight. A message box appeared a moment later.

For succeeding in your quest to protect Sir Worth, you have gained reputation! Your current reputation is now E. You will reach D rank after 3 more escapade(s)!

You have been defeated by Chromatic. For losing the fight, you have been docked reputation. Your current rank is now F. You will reach E rank after 1 more escapade(s)!

Ah yes, good old janky reputation, Dylan said. Hed stopped paying attention to it while he was Dr. Zlo. The character was already S rank. There was nowhere else to go after that.

A message from Jack appeared in his menu. Dylan opened it.

JackOLeen:

Hey the rest of us are alive. Sos the crafter.

Meet us back at the store when you can.

Superfan39526:

On my way.

Dylan looked up at one of the passing airships, a smaller model that looked to be for personal use, and transformed. Moments later a large airship took off.

He arrived at the store to see Jack and the others standing around awkwardly as Sir Worth flailed about. The crafter had apparently woken and was using all of his rather short body in animated conversation.

The nerve! Youll be lucky if a single tailor, dressmaker, clothier, or even a needleworker ever agrees to work with you once Im through with everything! Ill see it that you are blacklisted. Blacklisted!

Dylan landed, transforming back to his heroic self a few feet above the ground and landing in a roll. Sir Worth turned, hands flailing in agitation.

Another one, I see! Have you come to ask for a piece of clothing as well? Well, you will see not a single scrap! A single scrap of clothing!

Sir, please, Dylan said placatingly. You have survived a very distressing ordeal. You need some rest and possibly medical care.

Ill tell you what I need! Sir Worth said with a flourishing finger. The watch! Yes! I shall have the bobbies arrest the lot of you for disturbing my peace! Not to mention the destruction of my property.

Dude, that wasnt us! Firestarter said tiredly. We told you like, five hundred times.

Sixteen, by my count you liar, Sir Worth said. I knew you were a criminal! Lying about having a letter of recommendation to my poor staff member and causing no amount of distress to my actual customers.

I never said I had a letter of recommendation, Dylan said.

Aha! So it was you that started it all, Sir Worth said. Then, good sir, you shall pay for your crime. I request reimbursement for damages! I will see to it that you are drained of all your wealth and are left to squabble in the streets with the rats!

Antonia and Mycroft chose that moment to saddle out of the store, their white clothing marred with dust. Sir Worth! they shouted.

The crafter turned. Ah, Antonia! Mycroft! So good to see you! Im terribly sorry about this entire affair, and I will see to it that these reprobates are behind bars!

But thats just it, Sir Worth, Antonia said. These aspiring heroes saved us all. Why if it wasnt for them Mycroft and I would be buried underneath the detritus of your elegant store.

Sir Worth looked flabbergasted. These cretins saved your life? Them? The ones that look like a fashion nightmare?

I know, I was as shocked as you, Mycroft said.

Dylan looked down at a pair of tap dancing shoes. Aww, he cooed.

Dream got a suit and I got gloves, Riptide said. I think we can make a whole mini Dr. Zlo dudes.

I got a cane, so I think youre right, Oro said.

Quick,, put them together! Sweet Dream said. She took out her own piece.

Everyone quickly followed, placing the items together in Sweet Dreams hands. The contraptions took a moment as they moved over each other, but eventually small gears appeared and interlocked with the pieces. Soon, a small Dr. Zlo stood in Sweet Dreams hands, angrily shaking a fist at the heroes.

I love it, Sweet Dream said. I wonder if I can give it new outfits.

Maybe we can get him a little cape and spandex, Jack laughed.

God, that is just weird, Dylan said, staring at the robot.

Whys that? Dont you have Zlobots? Oro asked.

Yeah, Dylan said. But it doesnt feel the same? Like a Zlobot isnt meant to be marketed. I dont know the idea is weird to me.

We can take him apart if it makes you feel better, Jack said.

No, Ill get used to it, Dylan said.

He knew he would have to at some point. Dr. Zlos fame was still going strong despite Dylans recent break. It seemed a lot of people enjoyed his over-the-top character.

Well, dudes, Riptide said. Lets go see what Dr. Zlo has to offer next!

I bet its more shrink rays, Oro said.

Im not taking that bet, Dylan answered.

So, where is this Dr. Zlo quest? Jack asked.

Theres two, actually, Oro said. Though we can only pick one. Either the Hambuck Palace or the Tower of Londinium.

Okay, they did not just rearrange the name of the Buckingham palace, right? Sweet Dream asked.

No, they did, Oro said.

God thats lazy.

I mean, only some parts are lazy, Oro said. And besides, place names are lazy in real life. I dont see why it cant be in a game.

Yeah, dude, Riptide said. New York, New Mexico, anything in America with new in front if it.

Jack laughed. I say we do the Tower of Londinium. Continue with the tower theme.

Agreed, Sweet Dream said. I refuse the Hambuck Palace on the grounds the name is stupid.

Alright, Dylan laughed. Lets do the tower.

Watch out, Dr. Zlo! Riptide laughed. Were coming after you!
