Book 4, Chapter 5
Elfy
The same pentagram appeared under my lance,
[Tail Spike of the Dark Dragon Lord], which has been leaning on a tombstone. It
sunk into the ground as if it's standing in a swamp.
The pentagram below me got
brighter. I slowly raised my hand, with the grip of the lance following my palm.
Then I grabbed the lance and pulled it out in a flash.
I found this move when I was trying random things out in boredom---I
can call back my Dark Dragon Lord parts as long as I still possess more than
half of them. Apart from being useful (I don't need to worry about missing
any equipment parts), one other thing is that I can play cool in front
of others, like this.
"Night
Shade!"
I jumped high as a black portal appeared behind me. Night Shade
sprinted out of it with some lightening sparks around his horn, he accurately caught me
on his back.
"Let's do this."
Hawk
whistled. "Ooh, looks like I found myself one heck of an opponent today! That's
a nightmare, right?"
"Good
eye." I gave Night Shade a pat on the neck.
*Snoooort*
Aw come on.
"Watch
it. He's fast and is pretty violent."
Hawk
touched his unicorn too. "Just about right. My Sunlight is about the
same--fast, bad temper."
"Charge!"
We yelled at exact the same time. Now I want him as a partner even more.
Hawk
wasn't lying, Sunlight is surely fast. But his direction is too straightforward. When
we're about to clash, Night Shade feinted to one side and dodged the attack by
rus.h.i.+ng to the other. I knew Night Shade's plan all along, so I wasn't using my
s.h.i.+eld at all. I was holding my lance diagonally to give him a poke for good
from the flank.
Sunlight
halted abruptly and almost did a forward flip due too his high speed. While
Hawk tried very hard to balance himself--he was pointing his lance and s.h.i.+eld
dead towards ahead, expecting a hard collision with me. Though he still fell
down from Sunlight because of that awkward positioning. It's a fatal mistake
for a rider to fall from his horse during combat, but this time it saved his
life--now I can't hit him.
Sunlight raced back to Hawk upon hearing his call. He
skillfully got mounted and charged at me again.
I
asked Night Shade to turn around and face him too. Sunlight is charging slower
than before, probably to prevent me from tricking him again. And this is what I'm
waiting for.
"[Heart Piercer]!"
The spear head exploded into five and launched towards Hawk.
After some metal clas.h.i.+ng noises, Sunlight galloped past me without anyone on his
back. Hawk is now standing several meters away, holding his s.h.i.+eld with five
holes on it. The five spear heads locked themselves onto his body, each with a
red colored steel wire connected to it, all the way towards the lance in my hand.
My HP bar is filling up--the wires are draining Hawk's health.
He
realized it too and tried to pull off the stings. But when he touched the first
one, an electric arc went from my end to him and shocked him back. He still
knocked the head off him though. He quickly pried away the other spear heads
using his own weapon. When the last head fell to the ground, the wires began to
retract themselves. The five spear heads combined into one and returned to my
lance.
This is the first time I tried this skill, and man it's dandy!
"The h.e.l.l is that attack??" Hawk struggled up using his lance as a walking
stick.
"That was the most horrible weapon I ever seen." He waved his broken s.h.i.+eld. " I give up! I gonna lose it for sure if you use any more of
those moves."
"How
much damage did I do to you?"
"3000
on the first hit. 500 HP drained away, and 200 more with that shock. I only got
like 20 HP left. For cheese's sake! My s.h.i.+eld defense is above 2k you know! And
that was a successful block! It went through like paper! Are you sure you're
only 313? I'm 443 by the way. I don't meet many people who can even break my
defense. I killed like 10 people in that fight when a hundred are trying to
attack me. Do you get traps and tricks all over your body? "
"Well,
not really. That was actually the first time I use the skill. Oh, I kinda used
you as practice, sorry about that... But you're quite good. I'll send you out of here."
I
teleported Hawk to the Storm Cloud city. Well, a certain distance away from the
city at least. Any closer and I'll have to speak with the guards again.
Hawk
sent a whisper to his girlfriend to come here, so we waited. I
don't think we should just stand here so I tried to recruit him.
"Hey Hawk,
that was impressive. Can you help me level up when you have the time?"
"Ah ha-ha. Me? Help you? You should be the one helping me. You get less EXP when
carried by someone higher than you because you either kill low level monsters and
get little EXP, or try to kill high level monsters when the weaker player tends
to die a lot AND get little EXP. Not many people are willing to help low level
players unless they're good friends. Buuut if you can help me, I believe my
level will just go skyrocket. You're more powerful so we can go against
monsters much much higher than us. So...will ya?"
"Deal.
Let's do it together. By the way, you're not going to repair your stuff?" I
pointed at those holes on his s.h.i.+eld.
"Oh.
This..." He gave it a glance. "My golden set recovers durability
on its own when I equip it as a whole. I don't need to worry about repairing it."
"Really?"
I looked at his gear with stars in my eyes. "Awww, why no such convenient
attribute on my equipment..."
"Oh
come on. You like it? Let's switch then. I'm the envious one right now!"
I
thought about that horrible repair fee I still owe Clark. Sigh.
"Everyone
got his own problems I guess. They say it's easy to buy a nice car but hard to keep it
in good condition. I'm in the same situation now, they look good but I don't
have the money to repair it!"
"So
how much? I heard that you need really huge sum to repair
Artifact. And some special materials too."
"Ugh.
No, don't remind me anymore. Someone paid for me anyway." I looked at the sky. "I'm
not sure I'll ever repay the debt..."
"Someone did? Now that's some serious friend you got there."
"Hawk!''
Someone shouted.
"Elfy!
Are you alright? Did they come after you?" Hawk embraced with a girl who's a
lot smaller in size. When he straightened himself he lifted the girl off ground.
"Put
me down you silly buffalo! Someone's watching!"
Yup, that seems a smart
girl.
Hawk dropped her down with a red face.
"h.e.l.lo! I'm [Misty Elf], as in, a real Elf. Level 422, Elven Archer. So you helped my love escape? Thank you very much!"
Her
Elven character has long, green hair, pointy facial features and delicate skin, just
like those exquisite elves in stories. She has a long bow behind her back and is wearing
rattan protections. That sunny character though...They look like born couple.
"Nice
knowing you. I'm [Ziri]. level 313 Divine Demon D&P Rider plus Soul
Manipulator."
She lowered her head for a moment before exclaiming: "You're that number
one criminal Ziri! I knew I heard about you somewhere. How did you kill soooo
many people in one day? Did you actually wipe out an entire city?"
"Ohh
ho ho I would like to try that if I can." I think I'm
getting affected by their style too. "So are you going to grind, or get
some revenge on those people?"
"Forget
about those suckers. There are too many, we won't win. Let's go level up. We
already wasted enough time today. We planned to get three levels before noon!"
To get 3 levels in one morning is easy job
for me. I suppose it's terribly hard for other people though. "Where are
we going then?"
"Definitely
not the same place in the morning...Let's go to the Wonder Forest." Elfy
suggested. "Be careful Ziri, the monsters will be higher leveled than you, just
hide and share exp with us."
"Nah, leave him be. He's a monster." Hawk commented.
"What
do you mean?"
"We
were fighting just now. He almost one-shot me with one skill."
"...A
warrior, getting one-shot by someone 100 levels below? And those golden armors
you're wearing are not just decorations you know."
Hawk
handed over his s.h.i.+eld, still with the five holes on it. "I got proof. He
did this to me!"
"Oh
my. Who
made a Paladin s.h.i.+eld with 2000+ defense into a pepper shaker?" She tossed
the s.h.i.+eld back to him. "It's decided then!"
Hum. Looks like Elfy is the decision maker here. I don't know much about the places other than
the Lost City so I just followed them without a word.
The
forest is quite near from the city. They seem familiar with the place enough.
We
avoided crowded areas and marched straight towards the center. We eventually
stopped at an open ground among the woods. According to Hawk, monsters sp.a.w.n
pretty fast around here and few people would come to such depth.
We
soon encountered a pack of [Saw Teeth]. They look like ordinary wild boars with
really scary tusks.
Hawk explained: "They're level 430, both high attack
and high defense. But their HP is low, and can't move fast. They usually stay
in large groups."
I'm
going to get them into my guild anyway so there's no need to lay low. I just
summoned all of my companions and servants in one breath.
"Yah!!"
Hawk and Elfy jumped onto a tree.
"What are you doing? Get back. These are my
friends."
"Dra-dra-dra-dragon!"
Elfy
clamped herself on the tree like a koala. "Several days ago a group of
people were fighting near the forest over a valuable gem. Then more people
heard about it and came. The fight became an all-out brawl involving thousands
of people. Then a dragon pa.s.sed by, s.n.a.t.c.hed the gem away and wiped all players
with a single fire breath. Hawk was there too, am I Right?"
"Yeah
I saw it! Thank G.o.d we didn't get there too soon or we would be barbeque'd! We
didn't have much equipment back then. But the corpses left tons of them on the
ground, we sold them for some money, that's how we got what we're wearing now."
"Well
you can get down here. This guy is still teenage, he can't do that even if he wants to."
Hawk
is still hugging the tree like dear. "Are you sure about that??"
Elfy:
"I have...uh, right, dragonphobia!"
I
walked around the tree. "Are you getting down or not?"
"NO!"
"Last
time. Get back here."
"What-what
are you planning?"
Elfy
is sure the smart one of the two. She soon realized my "evil intentions". Too late though.
I looked at Lucky. He nodded and gave the tree a poke.
They
slipped from the shaking tree and fell. Two tentacles appeared out of the
ground and caught them.
Hawk
stared at the thing and decided not to struggle. There is a green crystal ball
at the tip of it, with two leaves around which move like eyelids. The whole
structure looks like a monster's head. There's even a mouth on it--some barbs
that s.h.i.+ft like a meat grinder!
