Zain got up from his bed. He turned on his stereo and listened to anime music. He walked to the kitchen and got a can of vanilla coke out of the fridge. He went back to his room and turned on his computer. He went around his desktop seeing if he had any mail. He saw that he didn’t and logged in.

Matsuei walked around a bit. He walked up to the bridge and stared down in to the clear blue waters. He watched as small fish swam around. He wanted to go on a quest but couldn’t decide where. He leaned against the railing and watched a few people walk by. Matsuei wanted to go on a quest soon. He got up and walked around still thinking of what field to go to. He saw his friend Wanderer and thought that he might know a good place to go, so he walked up and asked him.

“Yo, Wanderer, do you know any place I might be able to go for a quest?”


Wanderer took a moment to think. “Uhh, how about Bursting Corrupted Far Thunder? It’s a thunder field. It’s a dark place with thunder and strange cactus like plants. Plus it’s a level 4 field so expect a challenge, as well as treasure.” Matsuei decided to go to this place at once right after Wanderer said treasure. Matsuei thanked Wanderer for his help and ran towards the chaos gate. He entered the keywords and was transported to the field.

The field was dark with strange cactus like plants. Matsuei could even here thunder. He walked a little bit towards one of the cactus like plants. “Interesting” Matsuei suddenly felt a small drop of water hit him. At that Matsuei looked up. It started to pour as the ground turned to mud and the sky became darker. Matsuei ran trying to find shelter. “I should have known there were going to be storms. The least Wanderer could have told me was to bring an umbrella!” Matsuei couldn’t find any places good enough to get him out of the rain. He used his sword and placed it above his head. “Argg, this is going to have to do for now.” Matsuei walked around and finally gave up holding his heavy sword above him. He decided this was going to be better since the water added weight to his armor. He thought of it as extra weight training. Matsuei finally came upon a monster portal. It glowed a bright yellow like one of those streetlights at night. Matsuei walked closer. Three swordmanoids appeared.

Matsuei ran up to the first swordmanoid. He slashed it. It fell back and slid in the mud. Matsuei had to hold onto his sword tightly. If he swung too hard his sword might fly out of his hand due to it being slippery from all the rain. The second swordmanoid came at him. Matsuei cast Gan Zot to weaken the fallen Swordmanoid further. He blocked the second swordmanoid’s attack. The third swordmanoid ran at Matsuei. It attacked him. Matsuei couldn’t block this attack. He slid about a foot in the mud. The 3 swordmanoids walked up to Matsuei and surrounded him. He knew this wasn’t going to be good. Matsuei cast Gan Zot on the first swordmanoid. It disappeared with a flash of lightning. Matsuei swung his sword around. The swordmanoids backed away. Matsuei got up and attacked the third swordmanoid. It slipped as the sword came down. Matsuei attacked again. It turned to dust. Matsuei turned and faced the second swordmanoid. It tried to run and attack him but it slipped instead. Matsuei walked up and thrust his sword into the swordmanoid’s back. He then cast Gan Zot. The swordmanoid disappeared.

Matsuei took the time to let the rain wash off the blood on his sword. He decided now would be a good time to use his fairy orb. He could now see where everything was in the field. “Hmm…let’s go to another monster portal, that should be fun.” Matsuei ran towards the next portal. The extra weight of the water slowed him down a bit. He ran for a good 3 minutes before getting to the next portal. It activated upon his approach. Three magical goblins and one swordmanoid appeared.

The swordmanoid attacked first. Matsuei blocked its attack. He pushed it away and slashed at it. He then cast Gan Zot to damage it further. The 3 goblins surrounded Matsuei and attacked. Matsuei couldn’t block 3 attacks at once so he braced himself. The goblins tackled Matsuei, one after the other. Matsuei fell to the ground. The goblins and swordmanoid started to surround Matsuei. Matsuei used what little strength he had to jump up and get a good distance away from them. He cast Gan Zot and disposed of the swordmanoid. Matsuei had to use his sword as a prop to help him stay on his feet. He cast repth on himself using up the rest of his SP. Matsuei didn’t have to use his sword now but was still a little wobbly. The first of the goblins dashed at Matsuei. Matsuei sidestepped as the goblin lunged at him. It fell into the mud. Matsuei slashed at it. He continued on slashing it till it was gone. The other two goblins hesitated before attacking. Matsuei grabbed some mud at threw it at one of the goblins. While the mud was distracting the goblin, Matsuei attacked the goblin that was still coming at him. He slashed at it as it ran towards him. When he passed it, he turned around and attacked its back. It dropped as it disappeared. The other goblin was still having trouble with the mud. Matsuei ran up to it and did an upward slash. Then a horizontal slash after. The goblin spun around as it disappeared.

Matsuei wasn’t satisfied with his win. He almost lost and wouldn’t except it. Matsuei decided it was a good time to head for the dungeon.

Matsuei reached the dungeon in no time with the help of his fairy orb. He enters the first room. He takes his time to let himself dry off and his SP to recover. He then cast repth on himself to recover more hp. After waiting he goes into the next room. A monster portal blocks the entrance to the next room. He approaches it as two deadly moths appear. The first moth flies at Matsuei. Matsuei dodges it and runs at the second moth. He attacks it. Matsuei jumps up and does an upward slash. Then with his sword still raised above his head, he brought it down on the moth. The moth shook of both attacks. It flew a bit back. The first moth tackled Matsuei from behind. He fell down. The second moth flew up and tried to attack Matsuei. Matsuei rolled out of the way at the last moment. He got up quickly. Matsuei cast Gan Zot on the second moth. It disappeared. Matsuei Ran towards the first moth and slashed at it. It dodged his attack. Matsuei slashed at it again. It took the hit. He slashed it once more, it faded away. Matsuei ran onto the next room.

It was a fairly large room with a turn towards the left and a door. He ran towards the door. He entered the next room. It was a small room with a monster portal in the center. Matsuei approached it slowly. A magical goblin and a swordmanoid came out.

Matsuei was the first to make an attack. He ran towards the goblin. The goblin ran towards Matsuei as well. Matsuei then attacked the swordmanoid. He took multiple slashes and steps to avoid the swordmanoid’s attacks. Matsuei jumped back. He cast Gan Zot. The swordmanoid shattered into data. Matsuei ran towards the goblin. He attacked it. He did a few sword strikes. The goblin dodged one of the attacks. Matsuei brought his sword down on the goblin’s arm. He cut it off as the goblin braced itself. The goblin watched as its arm wriggled on the ground. It disappeared after Matsuei did a jumping slash.

He continued on. Matsuei felt as if he wasn’t doing well enough. He thought coming to this dungeon was a big waste of time. Matsuei walked to a room with 2 exits, north and west. He decided to go north. Matsuei entered a room with very few things inside. He looked around seeing there was other exit, he walked back and went the west way.

Matsuei entered a large room with another 2 exits, north and south. Matsuei decided to go towards the south. Matsuei entered a large room with 2 monster portals. He approached the nearest portal. A deadly moth and swordmanoid appeared. Matsuei ran towards the swordmanoid and attacked it. The swordmanoid dodged as the moth tackled Matsuei into the wall. The other portal activated. Another moth and swordmanoid appeared. The four monsters all came at Matsuei. He had to try and defeat them somehow. The first moth attacked Matsuei. He blocked this attack. The other moth attacked Matsuei. He dodged this attack. The swordmanoids ran on opposite sides of Matsuei. He was now surrounded on all sides. They started to close in on him. Matsuei had nowhere to go. He cast repth on himself. “This may be my last fight, so I better make it a good one.”

Matsuei gripped his sword harder. He jumped up and attacked the moth first. He sliced off one of its wings. It flapped its other wing frantically to stay afloat. Matsuei ran towards the swordmanoid. He thrust his sword and caught the swordmanoid’s arm. Then he swung his blade towards his left and flung the swordmanoid to the wall. Matsuei turned and faced the other 2 monsters. He ran towards the other swordmanoid. The stopped right in front of the monster. He jabbed his sword into the swordmanoids torso and lifted it off the floor. The swordmanoid coughed blood on Matsuei’s cheek and shoulder. Matsuei narrowed his eyes and swung his sword towards the other swordmanoid. The swordmanoid’s body slipped of the blade and flew onto the other swordmanoid. The wingless moth continued flapping its one wing frantically. Matsuei grew tired of this sound as he cast Gan Zot. The moth disappeared. Matsuei now faced the other moth. He attacked it, first striking the abdomen, then the thorax. He then jumped up and kicked the moth. He struck it down with a fatal blow the head. Matsuei walked up to the 2 swordmanoids. The still live one was struggling under the weight of the barely alive one. “You poor thing, let me help end you suffering.” Matsuei lifted his sword up. He gripped the handle tightly before releasing his tension and stabbed both swordmanoids through the heart. The both disappeared.

Matsuei took a deep breath. “Looks like I’m not gonna die today.”

Zain took off his VR headset. He rubbed his eyes and looked outside. It was getting dark. Zain popped his neck and stretched briefly before putting his headset back on.

Matsuei ran on into the next room. It led down into the next floor. He walked down the stairs and entered a room with a cold dirt floor. He saw nothing except another doorway to the next room. He walked on. This room had 3 exits, north, east, and west. Matsuei decided to take the east route. He came to another room with another 3 exits, north, west, and south. Matsuei moved with out thinking. He went to the south. This room had 2 exits. Matsuei grew tired of this and charged blindly into the next room. It was a room that led down into the third floor. Matsuei looked at it in astonishment. “Too bad luck like this doesn’t happen to me in the real world.” Matsuei walks down the steps. He looks around this room. It’s a narrow room with a turn to the right and a door. Matsuei walked to the door. He entered a room with 2 exits. “This is getting boring, I better find something soon.” Matsuei walked to the nearer exit. He entered a medium size room with a monster portal. Matsuei smiled as he approached it. Two Magical goblins popped out. “Not exactly what I was hoping for, and certainly not a big challenge.

The first goblin attacked Matsuei. He fell back as it attacked. He had forgotten to heal himself after that fight earlier. Matsuei got up and slashed at the goblin. It fell back as the other goblin began its attack. Matsuei blocked it. He jumped up and landed behind it. He turned around and slashed it several times. It disappeared. The other goblin was up and running around the dungeon. Matsuei cast Gan Zot. The goblin stopped as the spell damaged it. Matsuei ran up and attacked it. It faded away.

Matsuei walked back and returned to the previous room. He cast repth on himself before continuing. He continued into the next room and the next. He came to a room with stairs leading down again

Matsuei was on the forth floor. He ran on into the next room. He could go either left or right. He decided to go take a left. He came to another room where he could go either left or right. He decided he should go right this time. When he entered the next room, he was given the same choice. He did the left again, then the right. He came to a small room with stairs leading to the fifth floor as well as a monster portal in his way.

Matsuei cast repth on himself. The portal activated as Matsuei walked closer. A swordmanoid appeared in front of the stairs. Matsuei dashed toward the swordmanoid. He slashed at its right arm. The swordmanoid tried to block but was unable. Matsuei attacked again but missed. The swordmanoid ran around Matsuei and attacked him from behind. Matsuei stumbled forward. He quickly turned around to face his opponent. Matsuei dashed toward the swordmanoid again. He spun and hit the monster’s left side. The swordmanoid ran towards Matsuei. It did several sword strikes. Matsuei blocked and dodged all the attacks. Matsuei shoved the swordmanoid back and cast Gan Zot. The swordmanoid shattered into many pieces as it turned to data.

Matsuei walked down into the fifth basement. The room had a dank smell to it. Matsuei walked on into the next room. It was a tunnel like room with a door at the end. Matsuei ran towards the door. He entered another room similar to the previous room, a long room with a door at the end. Matsuei ran to the door and entered the next room. It was a room where he had to choose to go left or right once more. Matsuei ran towards the right. He came to the gott statue as well as a monster portal. He had to activate the portal in order to get to the gott. The monster portal activated as Matsuei got closer. A deadly moth appeared above the treasure chest.

The moth flew in and attacked Matsuei. Matsuei flew and hit the wall. The moth tried to attack Matsuei again. Matsuei knelt down and dodged the moth’s attack. Matsuei got behind the moth. He jumped up and slashed at the moth. The moth took the hit. It swiftly flew out of Matsuei’s sword range. Matsuei cast Gan Zot on the moth. Then he ran up and did an upward slash. The moth still had a little hp left. It flew up high. Then it flew down on Matsuei and tackled him into the ground. The soft dirt didn’t really cushion the blow. Matsuei cast Gan Zot again. The moth flew up before disappearing. Matsuei got up. He cast repth on himself to rid of the pain in his chest.

Matsuei walked over to the chest and opened it.
