Two white and black blobs, shot through the forest like bullets, banging against the thick trees of Floor 3’s famous misty expanse.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfv9HtPPzR
They screeched an inhumane screech, and on closer look, they would reveal to be mobs.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tlr8VUgDi
Not just any mobs either.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmKjkDPmfE
The holographic names floating above their heads would give away their statuses.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCM5PaHajG
These were twin field bosses.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEbGfwu6B4
Rabbid Ragus to be exact. 308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8uClrUG05
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6vvWqBIUv
Apparently reuniting a lost bunny with another bunny meant both bunnies turned into hideous creatures and tried to chomp your head off.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItP4Ub8ren
That, and they hated carrots.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqnthNJ5RY
Saito rolled his eyes at the thought, currently descending from the treetops he was waiting in. If his plan was correct then they’d converge at the same spot, around-
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsvj0B6vKP
‘Now!’
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob8IIS7wEK
Saito glanced forward as time seemed to slow down.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlspqSQzfl
Falling, right across from him, a black-haired boy, equipped with a shortsword and a dagger readied himself.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrm7bwn95d
He caught Saito’s look, and as the two Ragus converged into the same spot, tongues, and fangs gnashing every which way, the players activated their skills.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCc5Qgf9BU
Falling Sword 308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYEXLkPhjk
Fell Crescent
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRslQEU1rxd
Saito’s body seemed to elongate as he covered the final 4-meter distance within the span of 0.4 seconds. His eyes glinted wide as he swiftly plunged his luminescent, curved blade right into the White Ragu’s skull.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3YEWqWst1
Jyun was a tad later, however, he made his presence clear, whipping his sword arm through the air and slicing right through the spinal apex of the mob’s back.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6rhH9kzoZ
WR: 43% (-10%)
BR: 56% (-5) (+5% B)
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgEEQ3Otux
Saito grunted as he pulled for his weapon, now messily riding atop the White Ragu. Its skull felt like steel gnashing against Saito’s blade, and the curly-haired player growled with frustration.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWz4xXJz6z
“How the hell was that not a kill shot?! I stabbed you in the flipping head! Are you just not anatomically corr- Wo-Woah!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCblZ9ied6Q
As if over Saito’s antics, The White Ragu crashed into a nearby tree and fell straight through, sending the player and a bunch of forestries every which way.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pjkUWYePM
“Cugh! Ack!” Saito coughed as his body skipped across the ground. He threw his free hand down to slow himself and forced his legs to stretch out and gain traction.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKWu4MWpqY
Thankfully they’d now found a clearing in the misty forest.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNELex3HlX8
‘All the space they could ever need. Is this why they were running away from us?’ Saito thought tiredly, scanning the battlefield.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqPZv7nPwG
The Black Ragu rushed into the clearing right after its buddy, and Saito saw no Jyun. His Searching skill confirmed it. His eyes returned to their regular brown, the green glow fading, along with his patience.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2hGyF8R1b
However, he would barely get to express his annoyance as the White Ragu roared again, like the monster it was.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6T7Fd24wo
The lovely sound deafened Saito and left him frozen. He grunted, yet still could not move. Eyes wide, he spied his health bar, and indeed, his worst nightmares were true.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDBLXVrqtY
He’d been Stunned. The ten-second timer was already on 8, but it wouldn’t be fast enough, Saito was a goner, and it seemed the Ragu knew it too, a sickly smile coming to life on its hideous face.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuol4v2cas
Saito grinned morbidly.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjx297Aggn
“You’re one nasty bunny.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZZq1POC4C
The Ragu raised its serrated claws, priming them for the slaughter.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhl25lTKVBn
And with a final swipe, Saito thought he was a goner.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68QFIVsqLW
CLANG!
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKirSOqS1Sd
Saito’s eyes slowly widened as flecks of blonde flowed into his view. Slamming her pentagonal metal against those wicked claws, Kirie appeared out of nowhere.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5pXnhz2eW
The green light emanating off her guard sputtered and burst through every moment of the clash and Kirie’s scarlet eyes bored daggers at the killer bunny.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasoordZIZC
Suddenly her shield exploded in a furious flash of white and Kirie threw her arms up.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6XbRJJ4hC
“Ragh!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQOaRfvqFV
Like magic, the Ragu’s claws were instantly thrown back as if ricocheted by an unknown force. This was thanks to her skill, Push, and it had been heavily upgraded since her first use of it back on Floor 1.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHT3aDkTZD
“Ren, pad! Go!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6Yad8G9bY
Saito looked back just in time to see a flash of red fly by. His head cocked back as his eyes took in the sight.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmNXdS61Eg
Ren, the redhead Hellcat herself, rushed forward like an experienced javelin thrower, pumping her arms up and down as she swiftly neared Kirie.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WJPQrdBLx
The blonde lowered her hands from her previous parry and hunkered down keeping her shield above her. Another skill began to load up as Ren launched herself at the glowing metal.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy34BovcMyM
As soon as Kirie felt Ren land, she flexed her muscles and ground her teeth, thrusting her body upward and throwing her arms into the air with, subsequently, Ren herself.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubv6utRE1H
Red locks flying through the wind, Ren struggled to aim herself right where she wanted, but with a downward angle of her liking, she was ready.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW4RgPUX6n
“HEY FLUFFLES!” She screamed.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aZrVrMyHT
The white bunny reared its head upward, red eyes glinting with glee.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IRul0w9YV
New prey had been acquired, and Ren grinned like the madwoman she was, reeling her arm back. Her spear suddenly ignited with a blue flare and she sucked in as much air into her lungs as possible.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFAkxmgrpF
“COME AND GET IT!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrYZwitZxh
The White Ragu catapulted into the air, aggroed to Ren and her alone. What would follow Ren’s banshee-like screech would be an animalistic show of strength, as the redhead chucked her spear with reckless abandon.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViJGVloViN
The polearm jettisoned through the air like a shooting star and when it impacted with the tip of the Ragu’s cranium, an azure, four-pointed shockwave blasted out from every which way.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62AQwEyou2
VWEEE!
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYMLcrVs9y
The spear spun at such a high velocity that Javelin Toss completely bored through the mob, blasting out the back of the boss and flying straight into the ground.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMRnumIBXF
WHOOM!
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8oMZIRZfs
Another shockwave ensued from the impact and Saito was left mouth ajar as all that remained were lightly sprinkled remnants of data.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56PUq6thwP
‘What the absolute-’
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLiVeeXvUF
“Saito get your ass up!” Kirie yelled running over and extending her hand. “We still got one more.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr1waOz3lM
Saito blinked as the Black Ragu raged right behind them, now tussling with the newest members of the group, Tamashi, Jyun, and Irene.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANsHPF51cc
Saito flourished his curved sword as Ren landed in a roll next to them, and Calder jogged up on the opposite side. With Kirie leading the charge, the four would join their compatriots in taking down what was essentially indistinguishable from a homeless person’s fever dream.

“Are you who they say you are…? The keeper of allyships and the crowning grace of u-unity? If so open your old heart to us, so that we can prove our worth as your… saplings? What the hell.”

…
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1m0gKgTyu
“Okay is that really what it says on there?” Ren asked, red hair swaying as she walked up next to Saito. She squinted, looking over his shoulder.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCk6WiqoRJ
“You really think I’d come up with that extravagant mess on my own? Psha.” Saito snorted.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiU9eKLz2h
“Exactly,” Trinity agreed, inspecting her nails, her other arm resting against the hilt of her slender rapier.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf85VWiM1T1
The violet-haired teen smirked smugly.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIf5WbQeO8
“Saito doesn’t have words like “allyship” in his vocabulary.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7uZG6jC02
Irene, Tamashi, Calder, and Jyun all failed miserably at hiding their laughter and Saito’s subsequential glare aimed to pierce right through Trinity, who confidently smiled back.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MIQSfYt8i
“Alright, alright,” Kirie said, clapping her hands twice. “Let’s focus up, people. This is the quest we’ve been waiting for.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnQfVI6EUq
“Exactly,” Tamashi agreed with a wry grin. “The guild formation quest!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNieSE2H2t
Calder rubbed his chin with his free hand, his other crossed in his arms. “No one that we’ve talked to about the guild formation quest has ever given us the same answer.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSrmkrhVPW
Holi nodded. “That is true, the DDA said they had to secure a baby dragon, the ALS is rumored to have fought against a tribe of Blood Orcs, and the KOB won’t even release what they had to go through to complete the quest.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf5VqIOS7A
“Which means, either someone’s lying,” Saito said, staring right at the tree bark in front of him.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQmE8PnHMg
“Or every quest is different.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZCfvGyldv
Jyun nodded.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR1PvTeLHE
“Argo herself stated that guilds never had matched up stories. Accessing the quest was different, as well as completing it. Which means our experience will be completely original. Finding the smallest tree bark in the Wavering Forest was our first clue from the quest giver, but others may have had different beginnings.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlJs0xoSM2
“I like that.” Ren popped her fist into the palm of her other hand. “Gunning down our own path from the start. I can definitely get behind that. Let’s hurry this up, Saito, I wanna get a move on!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5T9aA6GAo
Saito threw his hands in the air, parchment and all.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz5Vh32n70
“I would if I knew how it worked! I said the line, nothing happened.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0spvyAflAN
“Well, maybe it needs someone else to say it. Gimme.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUX1wjyPjK
“Wait what? No, I'm the leader, I’m saying it!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRJroskeGm
“Saito we don’t have time for this, gimme the paper!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpuDD01PF9
“Ren stop! We agreed! Guild leader gets to say it!!! WE AGREED!!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63eVwZzEg9
“AGREEING DOESN’T HELP US START THE QUEST!!!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC3nz0pO67
FWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQMiiRXyHI
Kirie’s deafening whistle would put a screeching stop to their antics, and Ren and Saito froze where they were. Kirie frowned and Irene covered her ears out of habit.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IWrSTHLQ6
They were about to get scolded.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2WqnfjH7a
And boy did they, Kirie spent the next 30 seconds ripping them a new one, it was so bad even Trinity winced for them.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Znq8vMBNa
However, she soon calmed down.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS4kYAgXdJ
“Come on you guys, let’s be serious about this. Saito try one more time, and if it doesn’t work, you give it to Ren.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLMcpoh5JY
The two looked at Kirie, then each other, before pulling themselves away and straightening out.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf9qYG7ZlZ
“Mhm.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd9o7O2ufX
“Got it, Kirie.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWmKzSzZC7
Taking a deep breath, Saito was about to speak, before Trinity chimed in.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8gByhooqB
“Saito.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreOteL7RrG
“What?” He deadpanned, waiting for the telltale jab.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY66D2MZal
Trinity paused for a moment, then spoke up.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIF6ONUleS
“How you phrased the statement last time sounded like a question. This time, say it like you believe it. Maybe it needs more conviction in the words, like those old Lord of the Rings characters do.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnNWoruxNC
Saito looked at her oddly for a moment or two, then blinked back to reality.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMoNQ4W8lE
‘Wow, actual advice.’
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxTat3JFri
“Right… okay.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbv366rD2n
He then began again, this time, with a more deliberate tone.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZT0D3FK1S
“Are you who they say you are?”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV8rtQaZYj
That first line, spoken with confidence that time, sent a gust of wind breezing through the group, warm and inviting.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHvFlujN8A
“ The keeper of allyships and the crowning grace of unity?”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDb8xXlEOEn
Ren took a step back, staring weirdly at the tree trunk in front of them. It began to crack, little by little, and she could’ve sworn little specks of light were shining through.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkTwUOxvY9
“Uhhh…”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRYUiIMJWW
“If so open your old heart to us…”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkG4goHDxuh
The winds picked up, and the light became brighter from inside the tree trunk. Calder and Jyun reached for their weapons, while Tamashi and Irene lowered their stances, Holi went to stand by Kirie who was now staring crazily at the shining tree.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrNSYhvdx4
Saito spoke the end of the sentence…
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKETKmPWlMS
“...so that we can prove our worth as your saplings.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34mYlThExA
...and everything went quiet.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCCicz0WCj
The winds stopped.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRo9QRrCGhJ
The light dimmed.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaa1lgjeE5
The trees halted their rustle.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQZCM6VYvR
No one in the group made a sound or a movement. They wouldn’t dare let a breath loose, for they could all sense this was the calm before whatever was going to-
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ko86O6ReV
Phoosh!
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXovAysehIc
The tree suddenly split in half as a light beamed from within, then expanded. Saito and his friends were assaulted with a brilliant light, covering their faces and shrinking away from the marvelous shine.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCC3c2FmzY3
Saito tried to reach out with his other senses, relying on his Listening skill to hear anything outside of the curses and yelps of his group mates.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmnZMv1Kz3
Then he heard it, something very telltale to his ears. He’d played enough MMOs and heard enough corridor crystals break to remember that noise, and remember it well.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9hxkZqENd
“Is that-”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCR1AMHhRc
“Woah, guys,” Ren spoke up over the others, prompting them to slowly lower their guards. When Saito dropped his arms and dared his eyes open, he would see Ren gazing forward, her brown orbs focused on something they couldn’t pry away from.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfAjbppxEN
So he decided to look too.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbbZaItFTV
And boy, did he empathize.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc8XHLhEId
There, encompassed within the circular construction of the old tree, a mass of golden energy swirled within itself, the humming of kinetic power tickled against Saito’s eardrums, and his mouth split into a big grin.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTpSTyik0z
Tamashi shot both fists into the air and roared.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsT0Df7yh0d
“WHOO!! GUILD QUEEESST!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ufphFoUOB
“Let's goooo!!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡur5DOlRIC3
“Yayyy!!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Hl0oka6Yd
The group erupted into a cluster of cheers, hugs, and very weird dance moves.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxOH44rynL
Seriously, Calder’s robot was horrible.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftEyicsG3E
However, the information was correct. The good Argo delivered once again. Before Saito could speak, Ren strode forward ahead of him and turned to the group.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufJVUmMUQj
At that moment, the portal glistened behind her, its golden light accentuating the highlights of red in her hair, like the deepest flame you’d ever seen.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvtY5Bppei
Ren clapped her hands twice. “Alright team, this is where we do the thing!” She grinned.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6I4T59joKI
“I’ll take one group, and Saito will take another. Since we’re more than 6 we can’t all be in the same party, so we’ll work together in two groups.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyKXDcV3e6
She opened her menu with a downward swipe of her hand and began to equip her Labyrinth armor, as did everyone else. They were down on Floor 3 so they didn’t really need much protection from mobs.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw5zgjclSL
Saito saw the clear absence of talking as a chance and immediately stepped up next to her, turning to their group.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJnRccVR9V
“Okay, you guys remember the groups, right?”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK7X57S6c8
“Yes,” Jyun spoke up. “Holi, Tamashi, Inori, and I team up with you.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvWGdRQ2t2
The tall assassin nodded his head of dark hair over to Ren. “And Ren teams up with Kirie, Trinity, and Calder.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhroYe4I55s
Saito nodded as everyone naturally buddied up with those on their respective teams. “Correct. The-”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMvcl043Co
“We’re only doing this for precaution. Considering this is a guild quest, the system may try us all as one party for this special occasion.” Ren interjected.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICbenVTCRS
Before Saito could utter a word, Kirie spoke up right after.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yaknycdWj
“Remember, every guild has given us different answers about the quest. Assume nothing about this and stick to your groups, but beyond that, stay together.”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyEAR3LSje
She said seriously, staring each member of her party in the eyes.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXBv2cM3oC
“Don’t worry about your backs, I got them. Just move forward.” She said, slipping her brand new heater shield to her arm, and tightening the strap, its surface hissing with forlorn. She then unsheathed her broadsword.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡattCB8Z5R5
She’d gotten it from defeating a Marauder Captain boss on Floor 5.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy7TXcrFoK
Her blonde hair was done up in a ponytail and her scarlet eyes backed all the truth behind the words she’d spoken.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezEP2FgDuR
“Aaaahhh!! Mama Kirie’s so cool!!!”
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChzrO63Lg9
“Yes ma’am’s!” Trinity saluted playfully, as everyone energized themselves off of their words, earnestly readying up.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIYgVSQOyR
Saito gulped hard.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPRtoXFl7z
With that swallow went his retort, his add-ons, and any facial hint of disagreement or qualm. He sucked it up and breathed it out, expending it slowly and surely from his system.
308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JsuOjRUAu
When he opened his eyes again they were half-lidded, calm, and calculating. As Ren and Kirie continued with instructions and words of encouragement, Saito inspected his team silently. Said eyes flitted through the various members of this little group and his mind’s engine flipped on.308Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fPirCeIYu
