The World Called Excalibur

Ydraseil Tree

Zhangsun Shan grinned to himself, he still had his katana in his hand, he had just left the shop where he had bought it from, he was thinking on who to use it on next.

#I SEE YOU HAVE GOTTEN A NEW WEAPON, LOOKS QUITE SPLENDID LIKE THE PERSON WIELDING IT# came the feminine voice, this time, she sounded so welcoming.

It was almost impossible to believe that she had once been giving him a hell of a time.

"I thought you thought I was a jerk" Zhangsun Shan says, his joyful facial expression gone, now replaced with a 'idc' one.

#LET'S NOT DWELL ON THE PAST# the voice continues sweetly

#I CAN TAKE THE FORM OF ANY GENDER AND CREATURE, JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, I WILL BE ANYTHING OR ANYONE YOU PREFER, YOU ARE SUCH A TOTAL BADASS#

Zhangsun Shan's face suddenly lights up, he had forgotten about his wife, the doctor and his newly found student, he had to meet up with them and save them quickly

"Earlier on when I entered this world, you said three were also attempting to enter at that time, hope none of them said NO" Zhangsun Shan says, his face was blank but he was beyond worried, he cared about his wife just as much as he once cared about his mom.

Zhangsun Shan was ignorant of s****l practices so throughout the seven years he was married to Qui Si, he had never slept with her, the closest thing they did was kiss.

#OOOH# the feminine voice was beginning to go all octave

#MY HANDSOME PLAYER Z WANTS TO GO ALL KNIGHT TO SAVE THE MAIDEN IN A DILEMMA, HOW I WISH I WAS THAT MAIDEN# the voice ends in a bummed out expression.

"You are losing focus" Zhangsun Shan says aloud as he shakes his head pitifully

"Seriously, you have to tell me and now."

#FINE# the voice says sounding like a eight year old kid who was upset

#EARLIER ON, I TOLD YOU TO MEET THE VILLAGE LEADER, HE WAS TO DIRECT YOU ON YOUR MISSION, I AM GUESSING ONE OF THEM MIGHT INCLUDE SAVING YOUR COMRADES, THE GOD OF THIS OMNIVERSE HAS TAKEN QUITE A LIKING TO YOU, HE VIEWED EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU FROM WHEN YOU WERE A LITTLE KID, HE'S QUITE IMPRESSED AT THE FEATS YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED, HE WANTS TO HAVE A PERSONAL DEMONSTRATION OF IT, THAT'S WHY HE SENT YOUR FRIENDS TO HE CAPTURED AT THE FIRST ENEMY BOSS OF HIS CITY, DEFEAT HIM AND RESCUE YOUR FRIENDS, ALSO THERE'S A TIME LIMIT, YOU WERE ORIGINALLY GIVEN EIGHT HOURS BUT YOU NOW HAVE THREE HOURS LEFT#

"I don't understand" Zhangsun Shan says

"I just barely arrived here, I have been calculating the time from the very second since my entry into this space, I have used approximately 300 seconds which is approximately five minutes, that's one twelfth of an hour" Zhangsun Shan ends visibly flustered.

#IN THE GAME SYSTEM, EXCALIBUR, AN HOUR HERE IS EQUIVALENT TO A MINUTE IN THE WORLD YOU CALL HOME HENCE THE REASON FOR HOW TIME IS QUICKLY SPENT#

"Thanks for that obvious piece of irrelevant information" Zhangsun Shan says at her, his face wearing disappointment

"Where is the location of the enemy boss of this city, I have to face him and fast, I need to rescue my darling Qui Si, she means all to me."

#QUI SI# the voice began to scream frantically like a b***h on her period

#I SHALL DESTROY YOU FOR TAKING THE ONE TRUE LOVE OF MY LIFE#

"Seeing the way you speak, you obviously don't know" Zhangsun Shan says stroking his beardless chin as he suddenly looks up

"Do you know why you told me to see the village chief?"

#NOT EXACTLY" the voice began

#I WAS JUST DIRECTLY ORDERED BY LORD RENKUI#

"Well then..." Zhangsun Shan says as he sheathes his katana, the cloth he now wore has resembled exactly the same as back when he was in his world.

How it had also appeared in this game system was strange to him but he could care less, he needed to find his wife

"The village chief might know exactly who I am looking for" Zhangsun Shan says as he runs, he couldn't believe how fast he was, he was even faster than when he used Martial arts style : beyond light.

Before he knew what was happening, he was at the center of the village, Zhangsun Shan had realized that from his first entry into the village, the biggest hut was located at the very heart of it.

It would be logical to assume that the village chief was there and sure enough, his guess was correct, standing before him was a man about the same height as him.

Zhangsun Shan moves closer to home, while he was 1.2 metres away from him, a chat icon appeared close to his face, the same which had appeared while he wanted to speak to the man who had given him his first quest.

Clicking it as fast as possible, the man began to speak.

"Hello, I am the chief of this village, you are far too weak to understand what I am about to say, return to me when you are level 5" he stops talking as he continues looking at him.

"You are losing guard" Zhangsun Shan says clearly frustrated, he was level 13, what was this man saying but the chat option still displayed close to his face and the man stood in a frozen position, he wasn't moving about.

Reluctantly, Zhangsun Shan clicks it again.

"You have gotten to level 5, even at this, you are still too weak to take on the enemy boss of our village but you need to in order to unlock the map and free the villagers as the enemy boss is currently siphoning the essence of the Ydraseil tree which supplies nutrients to our plants which in turn is used for food, also, the enemy boss has captured your friends, will you help us to defeat the enemy boss?"

As he ends his conversation, a message pops up in Zhangsun Shan's field vision.

        DO YOU ACCEPT THIS MISSION?

                      Y OR N.

Zhangsun Shan first looked behind him, all the villagers just kept walking continuously, no one appeared to be in any sort of dilemma or were even tending to plants, none of them looked like they even knew what food looked like talk less of them relying on it, what was the nonsense this man was saying.

"I am really tired of all this nonsense" Zhangsun Shan frowns to himself but facing the man, he presses Y.

"Great" the village chief begins with a hearty smile on his face

"The enemy boss is located near the Ydraseil tree, it's at the far end of the Village, about seven hundred kilometers from here, I wish you luck, you have less than 25 minutes remaining else it spells doom for your friends."

Zhangsun Shan immediately hearing the words from the man dashes away from the area as quickly as he could towards the forest, it appeared the conversation he had with the man had obviously taken his time but he didn't have time to complain, he must protect those that are dear to him, besides, he couldn't tolerate this annoying NPCs anymore, he wanted to talk to real people who were not programmed to say or act a particular way every time.

In less than a femto second, Zhangsun Shan arrives before an extremely big tree, it was about 700 metres in height, it radiated with pink and white color and it's roots reached deep underground, it has pink petals for leaves on it's numerous branches,  on the floor surrounding the great tree where pink petals which had dropped from the tree.

Zhangsun Shan puts his left palm on his hilt, he was more used to fighting with his left arm as most of his life, he had not had to use his right arm.

"Hey enemy boss or whatever I am supposed to call you, I would appreciate if you can let go of my friends, there are some things I have really got to start doing, also I don't understand this world at all, I will be happy if you can give me directions over a nice cup of tea and sweet rice balls, it's been a while since I ate anything good" Zhangsun Shan ends with a creepy grin as he keeps moving towards the tree.

"ZHANGSUN SHAN" He heard his wife shout aloud, Zhangsun Shan picking up the direction where the voice came from ran as fast as he could towards the direction of the sound of the voice, as he ventured deeper, he could hear the voice getting louder.

SWOOOOOOOHHHH he heard a completely unfamiliar sound approaching him, Zhangsun Shan looked at the direction of the sound, he saw the most bizarre object ever; coming towards him was an object with smoke emanating from it's behind, the object was completely black in color, it was a 3 inch, 9 pound  rocket of combined RDX/TNT explosives.

Zhangsun Shan still was amazed at it but since he didn't know what it was and he felt it would be trouble if his body came in contact with it, as quickly as he could, he grabs a petal from the ground, with beyond human force, he launches it towards the object approaching him, it collides and causes a huge explosion

         BANG!!!!!!

the explosion causes Zhangsun Shan to fly backwards hitting his body against the ground.

"AHHRGH" Zhangsun Shan frowns as he gets to his feet.

"Did I miss?" came an unmistakable feminine voice, it was definitely his wife.   Zhangsun Shan looked over at it's direction, a feminine figure with a lovely physique appears, no longer being shrouded by the moonlight, she stands directly in front of him, it was his wife in a tight black catsuit, she was holding a M18 model bazooka casually with her right arm, everything else about her looked the same except from her eyeballs which were completely black.

Zhangsun Shan saw the green bar on top of her as he was amazed that she would dress that way, he clicks it and this suddenly pops up in his screen

Player Q -: level 1 (currently possessed).

    Enemy boss -: Ghost (level -: locked)

    Special ability -: can posses any creature it's level or lower.

Zhangsun Shan bit his lower lip hard, this was definitely not gonna be easy, he looked behind his wife, lying on the ground about ten metres from her position were Sui Wenyan and Wenren Yu.  Sui Wenyan was dressed as a nun while Wenren Yu was dressed as a scientist but the shirt he wore inside had a big red Cross sign.

"I knew a little taunt was going to get you to come to me" possessed Qui Si says as she walks towards him, there was an evil smirk on his face

"Lord Renkui gave me the worst designation ever, the people here are no fun to play with, just repeating the same old boring moves unlike the other nine designations which I wished above all things that I belonged to" possessed Qui Si ends as her face wore another look of sadness

"But well, it's no matter, I have heard you are Zhangsun Shan and our Lord expects great things from you, if I can destroy you now, I shall prove to God my worth and finally receive his praise, it's all I ever wanted since I was created, to be praised by my darling great God" possessed Qui Si ends with a pitiful facial expression.

"Were you saying something, I lost you at the part when you were at blah blah blah..." Zhangsun Shan ends yawning, he had a devious grin on his face

"...I don't know you and truth be told, I can give less than two shits about your pitiful existence, you are in my wife's body, being the nice guy I am..." Zhangsun Shan ends as he had completely unsheathed his sword and took a battle stance

"...I give you two choices, leave the body of my wife and I shall destroy you to smithereens or stay in the body of my wife, then I force you out and still destroy you to smithereens, the choice is yours, choose what you want" Zhangsun Shan grins as he holds his weapon, murder glint in his eyes.

"You practically just said the same thing" possessed Qui Si says, her face clearly bummed out but she soon regains her composure

"But nevertheless, if God really takes such a special interest in you, then I can never be too careful about this match, several players have come here in the past, none was able to ever get pass me cause of the way I fight, it's simply impossible to beat."

"What do you mean?" Zhangsun Shan asks.

"This" possessed Qui Si grins as Sui Wenyan and Wenren Yu who were unconscious on the floor now stand up to their full height, their eyeballs too were now completely black meaning they had been possessed

"I am a level 10 creature and being a boss, I have stats and abilities as high as a level 12, I can overshadow many people at once so long they are of an inferior level to me" possessed Qui Si grins as she jumps forward, now standing a few feet from Zhangsun Shan while Sui Wenyan and Wenren Yu were about 30 metres behind them

"...this is the end of the line for you, the classification of this body is that of a spy, I can adapt to use any form of combat, close quarters or anything else, your feminine comrade class is necromancer and the male is healer, with both of them supporting me, I am truly undefeatable" Possessed Qui Si ends as two level 10 daggers appear in her two arms.
