—Your Worst Nightmare
For new players
Did you just fucking call me a lizard, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in Mysteria Academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on the Erste Empire, and I have over 300 confirmed Gold Brick drops.
I am trained in gearcycle warfare and I’m the top dragon in the entire Grandcypher crew. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with muscles the likes of which has never been seen before on this Skydom, mark my fucking words.
You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the sky? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of Knickknack Shacks across Phantagrande and your island is being traced right now so you better prepare for the rebirth and destruction, maggot. The rebirth and destruction that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anything, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands.
Not only am I extensively trained in shooting beams of energy, but I have access to the entire arsenal of 5★ Dark Opus weapons and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the skies, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” nickname was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.
But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit spirit bombs all over you and you will drown in it.
You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
