CHAPTER 07

While kaowasabe and Jordan went to search the Believers Hideout, An uproar occured outside of the underground cave which led towards the Maiden boss's territory.

Guild masters alongside their members were arguing each other for the authority on claiming the rights of receiving 40% of the loots that the Maiden boss will be dropping.

Guild "Team PK" and "Light of Heaven" Did not participate on this argument rather they just sat down and watched as the guilds argued and challenged each other to a PVP battle.

Player "Biteme" who was the Guild Master of the Burning legion suggested that they should all calm down and talk this matter out rather than pointing swords at each other.

Raqx Asuna, The Guild master of Team PK and Evildoer, The Guild master of Light of Heaven agreed to Biteme's opinion.

Network, The Guild master of Intel Network Kings followed to agree and other newly created guilds as well.

Borasen, The Guild master of Sanctorium disagreed and said that the weapons should do the talking rather than settling it with words.

The Vice Master of Burning Legion, Phatsackz stepped in and told Borasen that if he is willing to Fight then he shall be his opponent.

Player "Phatsackz" A level 70 Flame warrior who successfully achieved his 1st Class upgrade.

Who is known for his brute strength, combat expertise and is commended by other players for his great leadership when it comes to raiding dungeons.

On the other side, Player "Borasen" a level 67 Electric Gunner who also successfully achieved his 1st Class upgrade. Who is known as the Best strategist amongst all the players of KAM.

Then as the two became the center of attraction, Phatsackz who volunteered to be his opponent asked Borasen for the Conditions of the Duel.

"The Duel System"

Players who wants to fight with other players without concerning themselves with consequences of the "PK System" usually uses the Duel system.

The Duel system gives the Players authority on how the Duel will end without killing them.

They can choose the conditions such as lowering the HP percentage, indicating when the Duel would end so that they could fight with all they're might.

"20% HP, That'll be good enough." as borasen confidently said.

So the Duel will end if one of the Player's HP reaches 20% and HP/MP pots are forbidden on the DUEL.

Phatsackz then changed the Duel Conditions to 20% and sent it to borasen for the confirmation.

As borasen accepted the duel, They then both walked infront of the crowds that were gathered and a Barrier within the two formed, Forbidding the two duelist to step outside as well damaging the entire area with their skills.

Other players cannot enter the Barrier and will only be allowed if the Match is done.

Then a 10 second countdown began.

Phatsackz, pulled out his sword as he faced towards the opponent.

Borasen then grabs his Rifle sized gun and prepares for the match to start.

The crowd that were watching their match started betting on the duelist that they've picked.

The betting odds were 7:3, favored towards Borasen, who had a range type class and had the advantage against a one-on-one battle with a melee type class.

After the countdown, The duel began.

Borasen, who was confident on his Range type skills started firing at Phatsackz and tried to make sure that phatsackz will not be able to go near him.

Phatsackz who was nearing the gap dodged borasen's attack swiftly, As he saw an opening he immediately used "Flame wave" a mid range attack to hit Borasen.

But borasen who was confident with his defense didn't bother to dodge but faced the attack upfront.

Borasen who just got damaged by the "Flame wave" skill of Phatsackz immediately jumped and used his AOE skill "Electrified".

A huge ball of lightning formed on the tip of his Rifle and started showering lightning towards the entire ground.

Phatsackz wasn't able to dodge all of the lightning and got struck by one of it.

As smoke occured on the ground, Borasen casted another skill and aimed towards Phatsackz.

But phatsackz knew that an Electric gunner's Single target skill has a longer cast time than their AOE skill. So he sprinted towards borasen as he side stepped trying to confuse borasen and halt his attack.

But borasen who had keen senses was able to follow Phatsackz movement and shot his Skill "Pulverize" towards Phatsackz.

Phatsackz who couldn't evade it tried to block it with his sword.

But the Attack that borasen used was too strong, Pushing phatsackz back thus widening their gap again.

Phatsackz who had received alot damage from borasen's attack depleted his HP up to 40%.

He then gambles and charged head on towards borasen.

"Charging head on towards a Range type Class? Are you dumb phatsackz!" As borasen spoke with a grin on his face.

Phatsackz who was silent still charged towards Borasen knowing the disadvantages of his decision.

As phatsackz nearing their gap, borasen immediately fired towards phatsackz slowing his movements as he got hit by borasen's attacks.

Phatsackz HP depleted and reached 28% but he did not falter and kept on charging until he reached the designated radius for his ultimate skill.

As he reached the exact radius for his trump card he immediately used it, As he swung his sword vertically a Huge flame on boomerang form came out and headed towards borasen.

Borasen who was over confident with his Defense smiled as he receives the attack of phatsackz.

But borasen went flying as he got hit by phatsackz's attack and noticed he received alot of damage from the attack.

Phatsackz knew that his "Flame Predator" skill had a 50% Critical rate and confidently trusted that it would activate the critical mechanism and would surely pierce through borasen's defense.

Borasen stood up as he was sent flying and had crashed towards the ground.

The crowd that were watching started shouting the duelists names as the battle gets fiercer.

Borasen got totally pissed that his HP depleted and reached 34% in a single attack.

"You still have something up your sleeve huh? Well this is the end for you! "Pulverize!" As he aimed towards phatsackz and shot his skill.

Phatsackz deflected borasen's attack and headed towards Borasen as he side stepped and sprinted.

Borasen who's skills were on cooldown had no choice but to use Normal attacks.

So he aimed towards phatsackz who was sprinting towards him and fired alot electrified bullets that were formed as small balls.

Phatsackz evaded borasen's attacks as he narrowed their gap, Then he finally got close to borasen and used his skill "Flame Wave".

But borasen was able to dodge it and continued to ran away from Phatsackz as he tried to widen their gap.

Phatsackz on the other hand continued to pursue borasen as he evaded all of his attacks.

The crowd cheered for the duelist as the battle goes on.

Borasen who escaped on being cornered by phatsackz successfully regained his skills and was able to use the AOE skill "Electrified".

Phatsackz who was nearing the 20% mark of his HP took a step back and jumped as the Lightning from borasen's attack struck the ground and managed to dodge it.

But as he jumped back to dodge the AOE skill, Borasen was able to buy time and cast his single target skill "Pulverize" and aimed towards phatsackz who was falling towards the ground.

Before phatsackz was able to gain his balance on landing towards the ground, a laser like beam pierced through his chest and ending their match.

*WINNER: BORASEN*

As the system announced.

"My money! Yeah!"

"Told you, we would won if we bet on borasen!"

"No, my money! damn it!"

"Give me my money, I won! Yahoo!"

As the crowd shouted with mixed emotions.

Others were all gloomy as they've lost their bets and others were happy as they've won their bet.

Phatsackz who lost the match commended borasen on being good at his control as a Range type class.

Borasen then smirked and said that he had relieved his anger and is now willing to cooperate with the other guilds on discussing with the current matter.

Then the Guild Masters from different guilds all gathered and discussed about the Rights of the dropped items and finally decided that the guild members who will deal the final hit and top damage will not be able to join the shared drop rule from the other guilds and the other parties.

EXAMPLE: If Burning Legion got the last hit and top damage, they will be able to receive the higher rating gears that are dropped by the boss. And the ones that fought the boss will only receive the lower rating gears. So they will not be able join the Alliance's "Shared drop rule" since they got the Final Hit and Top damage.

The "Shared Drop Rule" is made by the guild masters so that they would be able to choose from the Items that the members received when the Boss is defeated.

The Maiden boss is an All Out Drop Boss. Meaning after its defeated all players who had engaged the boss and was able to survive until it's killed will be randomly rewarded an item.

That's how they created the Shared Drop Rule. Guild members who received an equipment that is not suitable for their class will be able to trade it with the members from different guilds.

Thus the Guild that took the Final hit and top damage will be exempted from this Shared Drop rule.

Also the Guilds and party that didn't participate on discussing the Rule isn't also allowed to join.

The Guilds that participated and made the Shared drop rule were only Burning legion, Team Pk, Light of heaven, Sanctorium, Intel Network Kings, Afterlife, Blue wolves and Golden fangs and four random parties including Zeth.

After they've discussed the matter they all left and went to their own ways.

Meanwhile Kaowasabe and Jordan was still stuck on the Swamp forest trying to locate the Believers Hideout.

"Are you sure that this is the exact route? Maybe they're already gone? Your information about their hideout was 5 years ago!" As kaowasabe complained.

"I'm sure that they're still here so calm down, If i was manipulated and made as a guard of this forest for five whole years, Meaning they're still here right?" As jordan replied.

Kaowasabe who was dumb and didn't realize, ended up following quietly as jordan led the way on searching the enemy's hideout.

After two hours of searching, They finally found the Believers hideout.

It was a cave near a mountain cliff that divides the City of Gold's territory and the Western Empire.

Then kaowasabe and jordan slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave.

But before they manage to get closer a loud growl occured at their back.

As they turned around, Alot of Pumpkin heads were heading towards them.

Kaowasabe then tells jordan to prepare himself as they will be engaging rather than running from the countless pumpkin heads that were rushing towards them.

As the Pumpkin heads charged towards them, Kaowasabe used his skill "Eruption" and managed to kill the first wave of the pumpkin heads. Then he ordered jordan to take on the pumpkin heads that were at the right side and he will be covering the left side.

So they fought with the Pumpkin heads as it kept increasing their numbers.

Kaowasabe kept a close look on Jordan who was showing good swordsmanship techniques as he defeats alot of pumpkin heads in two or three hits.

Kaowasabe who was completely overpowered managed to kill the pumpkin heads with one slash at a time.

After an hour of fighting, They finally finished cleaning up last wave of the pumpkin heads.

Kaowasabe's level risen and reached level 51.

The pumpkin heads didn't drop any equipments but given him alot of experience points.

Kaowasabe learned a passive skill when he reached level 50.

"TRUE SIGHT"

A passive skill that grants him to see and analyze an individuals identity as well as their information.

Kaowasabe who was super glad that he learned another passive skill immediately tried it on Jordan.

After 2 seconds of staring a window popped out filled with Jordan's Status Information.

*TARGETED STATUS WINDOW SHOWN*

"How can i not see his stats and skills?" as kaowasabe stared at jordan.

"What do you mean?" As jordan noticed and replied.

"Oh nothing, let's take a ten minute break before continuing on entering the cave." As he replied.

Kaowasabe then wondered if the "True sight" leveled up he will be able to check any individual's skills and stats.

Then the two hid themselves at the forest near the Cave and took a rest to recover their Stamina.

After they're ten minute break, an earthquake occured.

The two then looked at each other and wondered if it was caused by the believers that were hidden at the cave.

after the earthquake stopped, Kaowasabe and jordan continued and went towards the cave.

As they reach inside, a spiral stairway with torches was seen leading downwards. Then they proceeded on going down to find the believers that manipulated jordan's mind.

After a few minutes, they finally reached the bottom and saw a double door with torches between the walls infront of them.

Kaowasabe tells jordan to be prepared and jordan nodded.

Kaowasabe then slowly opened the door and checked the surroundings.

But after they entered, the whole place was completely empty, only torches were seen around the entire closed area.

After they stepped a few steps the door suddenly closed and prevented them from leaving the area.

Kaowasabe and Jordan pulled out their weapons and looked at the surroundings as another earthquake occured again.

And a sudden WARNING popped out infront of Kaowasabe.

*WARNING: YOU CANNOT LOG OUT DUE TO UNKNOWN CIRCUMSTANCES*

After the earthquake stopped, Believers of the Mummy lord suddenly revealed themselves infront of kaowasabe and jordan.

The believers then surrounded the two as the believer on the middle said.

"INTRUDERS ARE FORBIDDEN, YOU SHALL ALL DIE IN HERE!"

Kaowasabe and Jordan knew that they were outnumbered and trapped inside, So they pulled out their weapons and confronted the Believers.

"Let's do this Jordan!" As kaowasabe yelled to increase their morale.

"Yeah! I'll get my revenge now! You imbecile believers shall pay for what you've done to me!" As Jordan yelled with determination on his eyes.

The two finally made their move and charged towards the Believers.
