The chase

Chapter 3: The Chase

Inside the dungeon, players were eliminating all the monsters, they were disgusting spiders with brown colors, with several red eyes, they released webs and poison, but luckily no one had been affected. After completing the raid, they prepare for the dungeon boss. Airum and Alchemi looked and were calm, they were defeating the disgusting spiders with ease. 

[The Spider Queen is coming, prepare yourselves!]

In the midst of several spider webs that were on top of the players, eyes began to appear, the webs began to be torn by huge legs, the spider fell in front of the players, it began to scream and release webs towards them. Some get trapped and others manage to escape with difficulty and others with ease. Airum and Alchemi did not feel intimidated by the spider, and advanced towards it to defeat it. Both go to one side to make synchronized attacks. They use their skills, their trained movements, they were practically defeating the spider alone.

The spider starts to move suddenly, making Airum and Alchemi stop attacking and falling to the ground, the spider throws poisonous web at Alchemi, managing to hit him. Alchemi distances himself from the spider by going into his inventory and using a poison cure potion.

Alchemi: "Disgraceful spider..."

Airum continues battling the spider, taking the spider's life, almost finishing it, the other players help, some casting magic and others using hand-to-hand combat. Thus, with everyone's collaboration, we managed to defeat the spider.

[Congratulations! You defeated the Spider Queen!]

[Rewards: Poison Potion]

Airum: "What a messy mission." He said with a disgusted face. "At least I gained some good EXP with this spider, I managed to get to 76."

After the mission, Airum and Alchemi walk to a restaurant near the dungeon, to restore their status after a tiring mission. They talk to each other, making small talk, after which they leave and go after a new mission. As they went, a red-haired woman in silver armor and a cape on the bottom with a deer insignia, carrying a large sword on her waist, stood next to a small cafeteria, eating good instant noodles, she looks to the side and notices Airum and Alchemi walking and talking, she stops eating her instant noodles, pays the seller and cook and goes towards the two.

She realizes it was the boy she was hunting, the boy with the wolf mark next to his name, Grim's mark.

"It's him.... It's him... I got you, you piece of shit!" He said angrily going towards them. "Hey!"

Airum and Alchemi look back and look at the girl who was approaching them. The girl draws her sword, positioning herself in a fighting stance, looking directly at Airum.

"You're the boy with Grim's mark, this will be mine, I've been in this game for ages and I've never gotten a mark in this wonderful game."

Airum: "The problem is your daughter, do well. Someday you will." Airum continues walking and Alchemi follows him.

The girl becomes more furious and advances, using her sword to stab Airum in the back, but he quickly takes his dagger and defends the attack, leaving the girl with her guard open, so Airum manages to kick her away. The girl lets out a slight psychopathic smile and advances towards him again. She uses several quick movements and precise strikes, which Airum had difficulty defending.

"Give up! You have no chance against me, look at our level differences!" He continued attacking without stopping, thirsting for blood.

Airum: "Not me, go crazy." He said defending the attacks.

The girl was level 163, while Airum was level 76, a big difference in level. She continued attacking fiercely, Airum just defended waiting for the right time to counterattack, and when she uses a sudden movement that could leave Airum in a fatal moment, Airum manages to defend at the last moment and at the right moment, "Perfect Parry". The girl is surprised, her guard was completely open, making it a great opportunity for Airum to attack with mastery.

"Damn... My guard is open."

When Airum was preparing and making his attack, he was intercepted by Alchemi.

Alquimi: "No, brother, she's a woman."

Airum: "But she was hitting me, come on, equal rights."

"What? I'm a man, you fucking feminists."

Airum and Alchemi: "WHAT???!!!" I was surprised to hear this.

"Yes, I only use women's skin, something generic in any online game nowadays, don't you agree?" 

Airum and Alchemi: "It makes sense."

"NOW!"

An arrow with poison advances towards Airum, but luckily, the person who launched it managed to miss miserably.

"Oh you rubbish, you're not even good for that, why was I spending gold on you? Useless, rubbish" He puts his hand on his face with so much disappointment.

"I-I'm sorry boss, I-I never did that." A dark-haired man with a green cloak and carrying a grimoire on his waist, stood on the roof of a store, holding a bow in his hand.

Alchemi: "Look at Cyber-Bullying

"It's going to get chipped, who cares about that?"

"lol"

Airum: "Hey, you're the guy who tried to kill me, right, you bastard."

"We're still going to kill you."

Airum: "No shit."

Alchemi uses a teleportation item, he chooses the destination and they go far away from that place, suddenly escaping from them. They couldn't go back to LyndFall for a moment because these people were hunting Airum to kill him and steal his mark, Grim's mark. Then Alchemi uses a runestone that opens a portal to a dungeon, they could level up easily, just the two of them fighting terrible monsters.

They enter the portal made by the runestone, and when they enter they were muscular and strong monsters, there were horns on their heads, wings and arms on their backs, their faces were of deep sadness, their front arms were attached to their chests, the only The way to fight was with the arms behind your back. The creatures called Demonamos go towards Airum and Alchemi, they use their skills to defeat them more easily, but they were monsters with great durability and strength.

After they almost defeat everyone after 1 hour inside the dungeon, everyone starts clapping quickly without stopping with their hands behind their backs. Airum and Alchemi are left wondering what the monsters were doing. Then suddenly they begin to explode, leaving only the rotten flesh of the monsters, after which the remains of the monsters that were on the ground begin to merge, forming a single being.

The new being seemed to form an armor fused together with the being's rotten body, there was a large wing and several arms on its back, and this time the front arms were not attached to its torso, they were now free and loose. In his left hand, it was just a large sharp point instead of a hand, forming a shape of a sword blade. What was already strong became even more so.

[Defeat the Demon Demon Berserker!]

[Denomano Berserker (LVL: 180)]

Alchemi: "We're going to have to join forces against this bixão, we're going to carry out synchronized attacks."

Airum: "Right."

Both were preparing to fight the creature, holding their swords, the monster was just motionless, waiting for them to attack. Airum and Alchemi quickly advance with full force, both on different sides, when they reach the monster that was now in front of them, they use their sword to cut off the monster's head. The monster uses its hands, clapping a palm, and when it does so, something that wasn't visible pushes Airum and Alchemi away from the monster. They are surprised for a few seconds, but even then they advance again for a synchronized attack. When they both reach the monster again, they try again to make cuts on the monster, however.

*tap!* They both move away again, pushed by something invisible.

Airum: "What a damn monster."

Airum: "Alchemi, I have an idea."

AIrum casts his magic for the first time, the mana sphere, making several circular movements, forming the large sphere and when it is finally finished, he pushes it with an open hand movement forward, a kung-fu movement. The sphere was heading towards the monster, but he uses his ability once again.

*tap!* After that, it creates a large mist from the impact with a mixture of purple particles from the mana sphere.

This was just a distraction for Alchemi to use his great machine sword, he quickly advances towards the monster, coming face to face with it.

Alchemi: "Lethal Weapon, Slash 20: Ultra Power Slash!!"

In fury, Alchemi held his sword with more strength and will, thus trying to make a critical cut on his chest. The monster, with its guard open, tried to prevent it by using its blade-hand to defend the great attack, but it had deceived it, after feinting its opponent, it turned in another direction, making a straight cut, making the monster look at it. the dark and empty sky.

"[Critical HIT]"

After this attack, taking half of the life of the Demoman monster, Airum came right behind him prepared for his attack, Alchime after his attack, made a dead move backwards, so right behind him came Airum prepared with his dagger in his hand. Airum used his rapid cutting ability, making several slashing attacks with his dagger consecutively, thus taking away a considerable portion of his health. After that, Airum and Alchime used skills together, making a large display of mana, after placing the large attack in the chest, it makes a large beam of light, almost taking over the entire environment, thus completely opening the monster, defeating it.

[Congratulations, you defeated the Demomano Berserker!]

Airum: "Good, I reached level 80, this boss gave good xp."

Alchime: "Yes, yes."

[Congratulations, you have a new mage skill: Lethal Conjuration]

[Choose the element you want to conjure: flame, water, cacti, stone, ice]

Airum: "Which one do you recommend?"

Alchemi: "Cacti, flame or ice. Any of these three are great, it depends on your style. Which do you prefer?"

Airum: "Flame."

[Lethal Conjuration: Flame]

[Info: Creating a strong flame that comes out of the ground, reaching everyone in the determined area of ​​the spell.]

Arium: "Hmm, interesting."

Some people with capes on their backs, with a logo of a deer, were placing some kind of papers on walls, in various places in the large city of LyndFall. A man comes close and asks what it was about that several people were putting up posters on the walls of the city.

"We're making an offer, if you find this boy, 500 thousand gold."

"Wow, all this to find this boy?"

"Exactly."

On the poster, it was Airum's face.
