Chapter Nine
I swear I'm gonna kill my own cousin, dead serious! It's been 4 days since we got into hiding, I'm with Axel in his fortress but I don't care about that!
"WHY THE HECK DID I GET INTO YOUR MESS!" i screamed while i kneeled and shook my head.
***************
4 days before hiding**
"We are.." his red coat appears in his coat. When people looked at him they looked horrified, someone even screamed.
"Black Cross on the Dragon Blood" then Ms. Amelia's clothes also turned into red with a red coat just like Axel's coat, they looked so cool. In the back there's a black gothic cross with 2 dragons meeting in the head.
"Axel! Your coat is so cool! Where did you get it?" i asked him with excitement in my tone, his expression of evil smirk turned into the i-know-i'm-cool look with a wider smirk, i feel like i made a grave mistake of boosting his ego.
I suddenly hear someone shouting, i hear the source coming from a dozen guards coming towards us with long spears and swords.
"There he is! He's Axel the criminal! Guards! Arrest him!" I look at Axel on alert and he just have an evil grin and was sheathing his sword.
(In the game the thief class, anyone who has this class can wield any weapon, sword, bow, crossbow any many more weapons. But they cannot wield two weapons.)
Amelia was preparing to heal Axel anytime he's hurt but I didn't want to stir trouble in the Kingdom. I activated Lightning Heed and dashed behind Axel and Amelia, I grab the collar in their clothes and made an escape.
I ran from the guards and made way towards the right wing of the tower of Babel.
"Wow Kaykay! What skill was that? We were super fast!" Axel said excitedly. I look behind me and it seemed like we lost the guards.
"That's my lightning heed, anyway did you do some grudge match with the kingdom? Why were they chasing you guys?" i asked them.
"You don't know? Achilles' Might took over this Kingdom of Cedoloron, and if you might guess yes the palace is their base. Well what happened is that the guild Achilles Might member was surveying the newcomers last 5 days ago, when they were checking us out they disrespected Amelia here! So i killed the whole survey team, then the guild was offended and tried to restrain us by using force but i killed the restraining team as well with Amelia's help then we got into hiding. And new info couz! Since they conquered this kingdom we can now steal from shops, bribe some NPC's for our recruitment, so practically this is now a player territory." Axel explained with irritated tone.
"Well now that i heard that let's get the hell out of this guild territory shall we? But first.." i trailed off, i walked towards the clearing and i still see the guards looking for us.
"ACHILLES BITC*ES! LOOKING FOR ME?! COME AND GET ME! I'M RIGHT HERE YOU BAS*ARDS!" i shout really loud, I sheathe my swords and activated the lightning attribute of my sword.
"You dare insult our guild! Guards! Restrain him!" Said the player, his voice is so annoying in my ears [Lightning Heed]!
I disappeared in my position and appeared behind the player, I kicked him from behind and he fell from a two story house which damaged him, took 1/4 of his life.
I jumped from my position and fell towards the player, I impaled his body with my two swords, "You murderer.." he lastly mumbled before he disappeared.
From that day forward my name turned yellow, signalling that I have killed a player. When I was done killing the guards I urged Axel and Amelia to come out of hiding. We went towards the Kingdom gates. Then we set off towards our destination.
Hidden Guilles Fortress!
***********************
1st day
We were in the jungle struggling in the mud on the way to Hidden Guilles, "Kayn, can we rest for a bit? Amelia's tired." Asked Axel.
"Yeah man, you can rest. I'm gonna hunt a herd or something, I'll be back in a few hours." I said to them, they wave at me and I wave back.
I walk in the jungle freely checking my status. Now I'm level 70 because of my pk (Player Killing). While I'm walking I noticed a message in my vision, I click it and it was an announcement, sounds important I looked at it.
[ANNOUNCEMENT PLAYERS!
THIS IS THE CEO OF ARCANE TECH! BECAUSE OF SOME PLAYERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE LACK OF SPACE IN THE GAME WE ARE GOING TO CHANGE THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN, NOW WHILE WE'RE GONNA PUBLISH IT YOU'RE GOING TO FEEL SOME CHANGES IN THE LAND AS PROOF THAT WE HAVE CHANGE THE LANDSCAPE DESIGN!
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A LEVEL LIMIT, THE FIRST SERVER WILL ONLY HAVE LEVEL 300 LIMIT, AND I'M WARNING YOU IT'S GONNA GET HARDER LEVELLING BECAUSE OF THE LEVEL LIMIT.
AND ALSO WE HAVE AN UPCOMING EVENT! IT'S CALLED [CATCH MY JEWELS!] IN THIS EVENT EVERY PLAYER IN DPO IS GOING TO PARTICIPATE IN THE EVENT! FURTHER DETAILS ARE GOING TO BE MENTIONED IN THE EVENT NEXT WEEK! ENJOY PLAYERS, AND HAVE FUN!]
Then I felt a change in the ground! The landscape has been improved!
Then I notice something in my chatbox. I clicked it.
Message from: AKillingMachine.
I clicked the message and see the message.
Player Kayn, you are already high levelled player, I'm the CEO of Arcane Technology, Aries Arcanos, I want to talk to you personally. Please come to my son's 19th birthday, but be aware of your surroundings, don't ever tell anyone, not your friends, or family. Your dad, you and I will have a talk on that day. Keep it a secret until we have selected your team mates.
Message End---
From the CEO ehh? It's quite exciting if you ask me, I deleted the message and proceeded on checking my stats. I noticed it's quite getting a little itsy bit hard to level up when you're nearing Level 100 towards 300. I killed one man when my level 69 was in the peak exp.
I look at my skill options. I see 1 slot! Yes this is good news! But! I need something I can base my skills with! And with that I go back towards where my cousin is.
2nd day
I was cutting long grasses in this damned jungle, there were some predators sprang from lakes, I was surprised and prepared to cut them down but Axel shoot them down with his guns.
3rd day
I'm seeing the town! We must be close!
When we set foot on the town I went to a smithy and bought a customized armguards and armor for the back. After that we walked towards our destination.
4th day
We reached their base which turned out to be a mansion.
I rested for 5 - 6 hours because of the journey and because of that I logged out.
****************
To the present***
That's the story, when I logged out I found out I was wanted in the Kingdom of Cedoloron. Now I was angry at Axel and he's laughing because he's making fun of me.
"Dude chill out, it's not like you lost a level or something." He reassured me.
"*Sigh* well you're right. But I'm worrying about the event." I said.
"The Catch my Jewels? Dude it's exciting! And it's next week. We better prepare for it." He says with a smile. I smiled back, then I noticed Ms. Amelia enters the room with a good vibe.
"Well hello there Ms. Amelia, good evening to you (it's night time in the game)." I greet her, she smiles at me and nods at me.
"Well brother Axel I better get going. Later." I said to my cousin, but before I left an idea popped in my head.
"Oh yeah, where is your crafter stationed at?" I asked.
"Upstairs, the right hallway, first door you'll see in the left." he answered.
I left the room and went to where Axel said, I reached the top of the stairs and in front of the door, I knocked first.
"Who is it?" asked an older voice.
"I'm Axel's guest, may I ask you to modify my equipment?" i asked of him.
"Yes, please enter esteemed guest." He opens the door, he was an old man with white hair, but still handsome. He has the one glasses in his right eye. I smile and enter his room.
"So, let me exa--... Is your equipment the Wolf Thorn? I can modify this thing over and over sice I'm the one who made this! So what do you want me to modify on it?" he asks with pride of his work.
"Well, i want my arm guards and foot guards to go with my armor. So with some wolf fur?" I suggested, he listened then took a sketchpad and Drew it.
"Is this what you want it to look at?" He showed me his sketch. It was so cool, the patterns and engravings were cool.
"Yes, this is awesome! But I also want you to modify the whole equipment. I have an idea, do you think you can add some crocodile skin under my armor? Also the joints?" I asked him.
"Why yes of course, but about the crocodile skin I can't add it directly. My crafting class is only thread, if I chose the steel craft I can only engrave the armor or make it similar to a black Smith but lower defense. But if you added leather in the crocodile skin I can add it to your armor with ease." He explained.
QUEST RECOGNIZED.
10 BAHAM CROCODILE SKIN
20 LEATHER
MEET WITH: MISTER HEIM "LEATHER MAKER"
MEET WITH: MASTER HOLME "ENGRAVER"
EXP GAIN: 500 EXP
WILL YOU ACCEPT THIS QUEST?
YES OR NO?
YES
Whoa, a quest this is an adventure!
"Thank you for that Mr?" I stood and asked for his name, he stood and laid his hand out.
"Heim Crowmaster, though you don't have to worry about the leather, we have a hundred here. I'm a leather thread Craftsman." Ohh, so I just have to gather 10 Baham crocodile skin, then when Heim is done I'll go to Master Holme. Hehe lucky!
"I'm better going now mister Heim, I'll be back in a few hours or more." I said.
*************
(Sour Soul Party Chatroom)
Connor: are u guys free naw?
Yeah man (Damian)
Connor: I'm gonna hunt some crocodile, wanna hunt with me? Get the whole group.
Hey Connor!(Jessica)
Connor: Hey Jess, wanna hunt?
Yeah, haven't grinded with you guys for a long time. Where do we meet? (Jessica)
Gale: In the village
gotcha, I'll tell the guys.(Jessica)
Whew, I'm gonna see my friends again! Though I don't have contact with the girls anymore, so I guess we'll see each other in the event.
I exit the Mansion then activated Lightning Heed, though this skill doesn't use Mana, the energy in the sword is what I use to activate it.
It refreshes for 2 days for full restoration. For 25 minutes I reach the Kingdom of Cedoloron, but my lightning heed is not activated anymore, I'll need 2 days to recover.
I walk my way towards the Village which I don't know how long it'll take me to reach
**************
I reach the village, the villagers were a little bit happy to see me, and I see their defenses have improved, high wooden walls, archers watching over the village in the Archer tower, and village guards patrolling the roads with youth with them, I think they're training their youth now.
I see that I can't meet the village chief since he's nowhere to be found so I just waited while watching the kids play.
"Connor! We're back!" I hear, I look at the gates and see Jessica with my three best friends, I run towards them.
"Hey guys, what took you so long?" I asked them.
"Well, we stumbled upon the girls on our way and they invited me to hunt with them and I didn't refuse, it's girls out so I won't be hunting with you guys." Jessica explained. Oh, then it will only be me and the guys.
"Well Jess, if that's the case then good luck! And enjoy! We'll be going now then." I said.
"Yeah guys, sorry. Have fun hunting though." she said, we walked towards the gates of the village.
"I'll join you guys later!" said Jessica. I just waved and walked with my friends.
**************
We walk towards south of the kingdom, i heard that's where swamps were.
After 20 minutes of walking we saw the swamps. Here it is, but it seems empty.
I sheathe my swords, and activate the lightning attribute, i start walking near the swamp lake. And there, walk out a monstrous beast.
It was a size of a 7 foot tall human, 300 width with a menacing looking jaw.
This is the baham crocodile.
It's freaking huge.
"Everyone attack!" we begin our attacks at the huge crocodile.
While we were fighting we're struggling to kill it because it's scales is hard enough for my sword to be stuck in. It was hard getting it back.
It took us roughly 19 minutes to kill one baham crocodile. In the end we won. Then suddenly a warning came.
[YOU ARE NOW HATED BY THE BAHAM CROCODILE TRIBE BECAUSE OF BEING WITNESSED KILLING THEIR GUARD. BAHAM CROCODILE LEADER COMING YOUR WAY.]
