“Well, you may be out of magic, but I’m bursting with magic,” Rachel says, sounding a little miffed that she did not get to fight. “I have plenty of magic too,” Melody says with a zest he could tell she is still full of energy “well, let’s head back to the guild and report our Quest is done,” he says, moving in the direction of the guild. “Yeah, let’s take that werewolf quest next. I know those don’t have any resistance, “ Melody says with an excited tone, “ yet another unevolved you have not seen, well I only seen pictures, and the story’s I heard they are stronger than lizard man but are the same speed,” Rachel said he sighs he was not looking forward to that fight “ well if we’re going to take on something like that, I’m going to need more magic, “ he says.
Rachel nods “ we will take a couple of hours to rest, then go after it,” Rachel says, bowing to the fact he had pushed himself in the fight with the lizard man. They make it back to the guild and report their success. The reward was good, not as good as a breading quest, but the last search pumps them up from d to rank. And looking baby, the hunt for the werewolf would be another promotion once they finish with that.
But they go to the pub area of the guild. Rachel orders them some drinks, and they sit at a table. Listing to the guild, “will the bards in the red claw territory sing country songs from the real world. This one sang alternative rock even though some of the words probably would not make sense to a Pearson from the game. He could see people head nodding to the music like they understood every word “well, do you know anything about this song” he asked his partners they shack their head “all I know is that it is a love song,” Melody says, nodding her head to the music but what he heard was not a love song at all.
Well, that was just one more mystery that was part of the game. They watch others go to the quest board, take a quest then talk to the secretary. Then they leave. Some patrons go to the quest board, look at it, shake their heads, and leave. They’re sitting there for an hour, and he watches as his mp. Bar is slowly restored to halfway. The song shuffle is again going on a different path; this time, it was a romance song though it was from his world. What he noticed about all the songs he had heard before in-game were always one he heard in the real world, no new pieces from his world, he had to admit he was quite a prolific Music listener, but there was no sound sung in-game that he had not at least heard once.
That was one more mystery to add to the game. He noticed this when the live songs from the bard were reshuffled. Playing the same songs again, they were all the same alternative song he heard from his world. By the end of another hour, his mana was fully restored “well, I’m good,” kalvmor says, and the others finish nursing their drinks and down them in one gulp.
Once done with the drinks, the three of them go to the board “well, the good news is that the quest is still on the board. The bad news is that the quest is still on the board,” melony says with a calm tone that said she was half-joking. He pulls the quest off the board and goes to the secretary; she takes the leave “well, you did the lizard man quest, so You will have little trouble doing this quest, have a good day,” the secretary says bowing her head.
They leave the guild and follow the directions. Out into the forest, they head, going north at first. The trees are not that dense, but they get denser as they go. When they’re in the deep forest, they hear the howling of the monster before they see it. They stood back to back, Rachel was chanting a spell, and he could see in the infrared. He saw it trying to circle them, getting closer and closer, then it turned toward them. He knows it is going to try and jump them. Rachel was already working on her next spell. When it jumps out of the forest, it is hit with a wight be of the light. It shacks and slows down.
“wind rise,” he says, rushing the werewolf. The werewolf looked like it was out of some grade-A horror movie, with razor-sharp claws, blood-red eyes, dark black fur, and male. His blade sliced into the monster, leaving a trail of blood. The feet of the creature swiped out. He mange’s to dove its racking and slice into the werewolf again. The werewolf jumps back out of reach. “Fire rise,” he says, blasting the werewolf with a face full of fire. Then while it’s disoriented, he carves in another blade strike.
The blade bits deep, but the wolf grabs the knife when the edge goes halfway through. And with its other hand racks into him with the other claw. The claw leaves a red blood mark as it goes. Rachel finished chanting, and a lightning bolt hits the werewolf. Melony spent chanting, and he felt strength pump through him “thanks for healing next, please,” he says, and with that, he yanks his sword out of the werewolf. “Water rise,” he says and wipes into the werewolf with a water-covered blade.
Blood flows freely as the blade bites into the werewolf. It bites down on him, and his health goes down some more. He strikes out again his blade hits the werewolf again. Rachel finished chanting again, and a shard of ice latches into the werewolf. At the same time, melony ends her chanting, and he glows, and all his injuries heal, and his H.p. Bar goes up a bit the werewolf growls and then lets out a blood-curdling howl. And for what seems like forever, he can’t move.
He is forced to stand there and take punishment from the werewolf five-hole hits, and his bar goes down a bunch .melody finished chanting, and he glows again, like before his wounds close, and his h.p bar goes up a bit but nowhere near enough to make up for the loss. Rachel finishes chanting, and a ball of acid hits the werewolf. With a surf of stent, he cuts into the werewolf again. Through the creature’s head, the sword goes, and its body falls to the ground.
He breathes a sigh of relief “what the hell that was harder than the lizard man,” he says, wiping the blood off his sword in the grass “that thing took most my magic to help kill,” Rachel says, panting “well let’s go back to the guild and report that we’re done” he says Rachel and Melony nod. They head back the way they came. The guild didn’t seem lively, and they checked in with the secretary “thanks for taking care of the werewolf quest “what the heck? That thing was way stronger than a lizard man,” he said, complaining. She nods “it must have been an alpha werewolf then I’ll see to it your reward is double, your lucky to be alive, “ she said, paying them to double the amount, which was still not equal to a breading quest.
They rest in the central area eating lunch “well, that monster was strong. Here’s to a successful mission completed,” he says, lifting his beer mug. The others do the same “here’s to holding we don’t run into that kind of monster again, “ Melony says, raising her glass “here here,” Rachel says, and the glasses clank when the glass touch each other. “Well, the bard has just run dry of songs,” Rachel says, wincing as the bard sings the same song again “you just noticed that I grew tired of it a while ago “either of you knows any good stories” kalvmor “a long time ago in a kingdom far away there lived an evil wizard. He gathered an army of follows. One day a young man rose and defeated the evil wizard,” Rachel says
“that’s a concise story, “ kalvmor says, trying not to laugh “please, it’s the best story I have. I’m not much for reading. Was too busy studying to be a wizard,” she says plainly. “I knew one a long time ago--“
There was two hero’s, the hero of light, who could face all the monster in the world. Then there was the great lady of darkness who grew sick of the way the world worked and went on an adventure to find a solution..after leaving her dark village behind, she traveled from one place to another, each time looking for a way to end the cycle of death. When she came across the hero of light, she joined him first, hiding what she was from him. After they had many of Journey, when they went to a church of the shadow, and the two wed at its alter, they were shown the way to end the cycle of death….” however that all of the stories I know my mother was never able to finish it” melody says leaving her story at a cliff hanger. “You know any more story’s, “ he asks. She shakes her head.
