Many notifications bombard Seth as he exits from the Blank Space. Seth swiped away the notification and began searching for Samsaria, his Quest Objective. He found her with the Female Guard captain.
The battle was still going on, but it was on its last rope.
Abuhe had already left while Mara had a piece of cloth covering her right hand. Well, covering the Pearl she held. By looking at her face, one can understand she was happy.
Seth hears more clashes and screams of combatants outside, but he has lost his fighting spirit. Ev wh he ssed another Monster running into the Manor, he did not make any efforts to warn them or make elaborate plans.
The Monster was about to cause trouble wh its body shot into the sky.
Boom!
It exploded. Blood and gore splashed everywhere.
"Oops! I overdid it!" Mara giggled.
With a swipe of her hand, the half-destroyed Manor began to repair and at that time, three more Monsters were dragged out from the shadows.
"Looking for me, ugly guys. I\'m here, come get me!" She said playfully. Yes, she toyed with them before killing them.
In just t minutes, the whole Manor was as good as new. The blood and gore were all cleaned up. Wh she looked at the body of her dead Female Guards she frowned but th she made their bodies intact respectfully.
Wh she was about to exit the Manor, she looked at Seth and said, "Fight a Dragon and defeat it th use the Womb to raise another one….. Good luck. Haha!"
With her walking out and the silce of the battlefield was just one minute. Th her name was repeatedly shouted by the townspeople and players.
Mara!
Mara!
Mara!
Mara!
…..
Seth stared at the bright full moon. He felt down, the way he had never felt before. He tried to convince himself this was part of the game advture and that he should cheer up, but to no avail.
As Seth looked a, he realized the way the Manor residts looked at him had changed, they were now curiously looking at him! And wh his eyes met with the Female Guards, they nodded at him, one of them ev bowed a bit.
\'They are showing respect!\' Seth sighed.
"Force Field is a good choice for a Long-Range Fighter. But it\'s a one-time use before long recharge. Armour is still better!"
The Female Guard Captain walked up to Seth and said and there was admiration in her eyes.
Female Guards were the ones that looked down on him the most but seeing how he held his g against Monsters, their attitude changed.
"Physical Armor is too heavy for me!" Seth said.
As if waiting for him to say that she answered. "You will not face that problem using Crodo hide… come with me!"
Seth was curious about what a Crodo is ev though he had a hunch. In the d, he followed her to confirm!
As they were exiting the Manor, Seth saw Samsaria holding a staff and she was trying to wield it. On the floor was the picture that Seth painted.
She was comparing the staff in the picture and the one in her hand and also trying to mimic the stance.
He did not know wh he started smiling. The girl was serious as if it was a matter of life and death! At that time, he also heard the Female Guard Captain laugh too!
Haha!
They reached a house where t players were waiting outside. The Female Guard Captain made Seth wait with the players while she walked inside.
"Mr scribe. What hole did you hide?" A kid with blue hair asked, he had a smug expression on his face.
"Didn\'t you see him with the Female Guard, I bet she was asked to protect him," another teased.
In all the beast stampedes, Seth has never fought with them and also the fact that he worked at Chief Manor made some of them Jealous. Some snickered but Seth noticed the old man that once advised him staring at him with curious eyes.
In another t minutes, the sun rose and Seth believed for the first time he was in the game for more than 6 hours.
The waiting ded as the Female Guard Captain came out and invited them in. She has changed from armoured to casual pants and shirts with an apron, ready for work.
Inside the house, there were four other players. Seth recognised them as the four Battle Forces of Vulcan Town. Their synergy during battle was unmatched, ev Seth praised them.
Among them was a Swift Sword user, he was fast and evasive, he could ter the emy formation and get out with less injury.
Th the Shield user, nothing gets past him. It was believed that he could tank an Iron Boar!
A Ranger using Bow and Arrow. She worked well with the Swift Sword user, giving help wh he was in the emy\'s formation.
Th the Heavy Sword user. The guy is a brute as long as he swings, he cleaves. The four work together in a way that minimizes their weakness and maximizes their strgth. In any battle, they performed better than any player including the last battle.
"Stay here, please!" She said.
The inside was spacious but lacked furniture. Seth found a place to lean.
Madam Mud was welcomed into the house and she gave the players medication for their injury for free.
Seeing Seth with them she snorted. Seth was in too much pain of losing something valuable to worry about her remarks.
Th he heard…
"We don\'t need trash in this house of honour. Get your filthy ass out!" The speaker was disgusted to no d as he saw the useless Seth in their house.
Seth raised his eyes and met the eyes of a young man. He has a leather apron with blood on it, he also resembled the Female Guard Captain Seeing Seth wasn\'t reacting, he walked fast towards him intding to drag him out.
He was about to grab Seth, the young man\'s head wt directly to the g. A strong hand had pushed him down. The floor cracked and his face became bloody. He fainted on the spot.
The culprit was indiffert. "That my Guest!" she announced as she glared at both players and NPCs in the house. The house became silt.
She wt deeper into the house leaving people to glance at Seth with complication. No more harsh words or remarks.
While Madam Mud ordered for the unconscious man to be carried to the clinic. She looked at Seth with curiosity before she left.
T minutes later….
"Seth Enoch. You come first!" The Female Guard Captain said after she came back. Some players were about to protest wh her glare shut them off.
"This is a Forge. We combine various items to produce unique items." The Female Guard Captain began to explain.
"By the way, my name is Sarima. Do you people realize that you have very rare Garmts. It\'s a growth type and the more you develop it the better it will be. At some point, it will turn into Artifact."
"It\'s one of the reasons we are jealous of you. It\'s not easy to get your hands on one of them. but, you people were granted without knowing its value!" Sarima explained.
