"A request in search of a ruby, huh," said Juray, "I will accept it" he accepted it without a decline and continue.
At the prince's office desk, Silver registered the request, adding Cecil to his party."So you are taking him with you?" surprised the prince "but, there are many other fighters of better ranks so, why trouble with him?. Don't get the wrong idea"Cecil begin to get boiled in anger however, his partner was calm and replied, "With all due respect, sir I believe I took the right choice..."The prince thought for a while then nodded agreeing and said, "Okay, then be careful out there. It's getting dark so monsters might grow a bit mad by seeing fighters crossing by. You may leave.""Thank you, sir" both bowed and went to the door. Before closing, Cecil sneaked in, sticking out his red tongue at him and left out slamming the door. The prince was confounded and thought to himself, "I don't get it...why don't I have the guts to punish him?. Do I enjoy it?" he got lost in his world.Both Cecil and Silver left out of the town in the dark green plains where night wind howl and the weaves of grass were heard in the ears of Juray. While walking the mage stretched his arms wide high and said in relief, "An ah! It feels so great to be out in a mission" he looked at the boy and thought, "I should be aware of my actions. He might steal me when any goods will turn valuable.""Question, friend" spoke finally the boy after crossing miles " Do you have any knowledge, any location or any bosses keeping it as a treasure with them?""What do you have about it, Silver?" Cecil returned the question "A fighter can't simply look for a sick giving stuff like that?. You want it so badly that you traveled all that long way to meet an unskilled mage, just using his experience to get it?. It makes me wonder....why?""I told you before I'll let you know when it comes in my hands" he answered while walking "A success often tastes bad when its path is spoken before it's time."The mage remained silent, knowing it will be of no use asking him instead he decided to answer the first question, "Well, I read in a book it's a night mode Ruby. Commonly, found in the night valley. It' 's a toy of the full dark cat. It has been keeping with it for quite along. It's been using it as a source of energy during the battle with fighters. It's kind of rare too. Many of us see it as an unlucky tool, we know its power but..." he remained silent.The boy looked at him from the corner of his eyes and turned straight walking on.As Cecil mentioned, there are three modes of rubies in all different types:One morning mode.Second sunset modesThird-night modes.These modes are very useful for the kinds of stuff the rubies are made in or used for. The modes help them work as infinite stuff. Using high power without losing strength or MP. It also increases the other status of the character in this short time.At the start of the morning, the sun is setting, and when the night starts till midnight it ends. Players with these rubies get very excited to develop at these times. The EXP would fill smoothly, battles will come under their hands and they would use high powers with excitement to have more fun.However, the black-eyed ruby wasn't like any among rubies in the game. It had all three modes. It was dangerous for a character in every angle thou, worthy. Players wished a lot to have it. They even hoped for a cheat code to escape the consequences but, the game had its own rules, and not even cheating was not suitable for it.Climbing a hill Silver said, "We are here" they looked down at a valley, filled with the Rockies, grasses, and lakes. In the corner full dark cat was sitting on soft grasses and rolling a black ball under its claw paws. In the center of the black ball much darker circle, the ball was glowing.""HOW BLACK!" surprised the mage looking at it "I heard of it and read but, this is the first time I am having my sight on it"Silver scanned around the surroundings and said, "The boss has tiny monsters to protect its nest.""What?" surprised Cecil asking. He looked around, "But, I don't see any.""That's the trick," said Silver.In front of the screen, a biography of the stage appeared, Juray read it which said, "Valley of the trick:It's a place where the boss and side monsters work side by side. When the moon lights show it's a glimpse, monsters emerge on the fighter. When it's dark the boss makes its move and quits when light forms.Hint: "Teamwork is the key""So it's a matter of time," said Juray after reading, "I think I will make it but, what about Silver?. Who will back him? And above all,I didn't receive any inbox from his player once we met him.....which kind of confused me. Is he a citizen or a Character.....strange?"The moment it was about to land in the center of the men, a sudden hard push interrupted its landing and threw far. "Look Silver" pointed Cecil at the left side "there's another party...over there" a group was standing and watching down at the valley, "I am thinking if a party should be of seven members then, why we two only are accepted""I registered a request" answered Sliver "So a party isn't required for such thing""I see" nodded Cecil "So how do you think we should attack here to get the ruby. It won't be that simple""Let's follow that party first" suggested his friend "we will see how they do"The party of seven members slides down after checking the moon, appearing from behind the clouds. There walked in in the plane heading towards the spot. A stone moved in a minute hundred of monsters ambushed them from all sides.All had level 4 and were good at attacking the front.The leader Red cape ordered, "Atta
"Oh no!" exclaimed Mi Hao in stunned sitting among six players in a corner and staring at the screen. The players didn't move "He's bleeding" said his friend.Cecil opened his eyes in terror and got startled to see a long Javelin's end been stabbed in Red cape's waist and drops of blood were dripping. He looked up at the owner of the weapon holding from the other end and staring with cold eyes straight at the suffering Red cape.A tag got shown in Juray 's glass which wrote:Your partner SilverLost -10 EXP"You.....you how did you?" asked Ted cape breathing heavily, "How did you get here in such a short time?... It was a matter of...(pant) only a matter of minutes and seconds I could kill that mage...you were miles away..."Without a word, Silver pulled out the Javelin with a splash of blood and Red Cape dropped to the ground holding his wound. His HP begin to drop 5 percent randomly, it had to be acted fast. Mi Hao was
"Do you wish to move to Autumn leaf Kingdom?" asked the system of Map."Yes," passed enter and Juray wore on the headphones sitting up straight.In the entrance gate, besides the teleport checkpoint, a character arrives and gets down. He entered the marvelous gate of the kingdom and walked through a long path. Soon after crossing the plains, houses stepped by, and finally, the kingdom was seen.With Autumn leaves flowing in the air, a world of fantasy was around to be seen. Knights, Nobles, Musketeers, soldiers, fairies, witches, wizards, magicians, princes, fighting princesses all sort of characters were roaming around. The area is orange and 'golden in color with lovely sunlight with large houses and a beautiful cold atmosphere. Characters were all wondering around exiting and entering, leveling up and signing up their records into the huge building of NPC's.The game had five places that any player could use as a homeland.

Thedusksand lights flashedwithin thegiganticstation. Players were all surrounded around two computerswithin thecenterpushwhich were against each other.Eacheye was on the screens on both sides eating thesee."Hey,do nothold back on me," said Mi Hao, taking hissituate, inserting his card "It's obvious people or let's say players love teasing each other, but it's more brightening to see each other getting cheers, don't you think so?"A voice interrupted their attention, very smooth, lovely and attractive. Everyone turned to the employer 's side looking at voice from. Before Juray looking back, a hand rested upon his right shoulder. His eyes lifted up and his head turned around and he exclaimed in surprise, "....BOSS! "Every player got their eyes fixed on him as thou they saw a great CEO, he was dressed black suit and his hairs combed, silky. He looked at every one with a gentle smile."What are you doing here?" asked Juray standing up for greetings."I felt strongly there was something messing up the station....so, I thought of paying a visit and unfortunately" he looked at the screen "My expectations were right in their sites.""I am sorry..." hanged Juray his head in ashamed."No problem....." accepting the apologies and he turned to MINUS ZERO Pride for the station
A week later, the player still rushed in for playing Minus Zero to break records or level up. Mainly, the first clear in easy mode every 62 stages was done by two Teams.One was called Silk Thread,the other Night nale.Their names were listed on the huge screen of the station, shown in two columns, filling the players in pride.The stages had three difficulties:- Easy.- Medium.- Hard.In easy, the side monsters would come in thousands and the boss would be an easy slap. This type was good for getting levels up, educating yourself for the game, and earning EXP.The Medium was with a fixed number of monsters and a boss would often drop an item, defeating it in time attack.However,In Hard, the side was not more than 15 but, there was a 100 percent chance of a rare monster or may say hidden Boss and the stage boss with the double level of previous levels with skil
Juray opened the inbox and read the mail. It was from the Prince inviting Cecil to a competition held u ring his birthday celebration. He invited him to the main topic called, "Finder's keepers."Below it was a bar written Tutorial. The player swipe the arrow mouse to it and clicked on it to understand it in detail. It viewed the definition,"Prince Eden has invited 40 characters in a competition being held on his birthday as an event. The characters must attend it to rise the trust of higher-ups and get rewarded. All players must attend it once it's given. The reward will be announced once they succeeded in completing it. Above all, must follow the straight instructions given to them by the higher-ups or else any outer action would lead to the character's penalty."Juray was straight up, he checked up the time from the lower desktop bar which read 10:45 pm, and said, "There isn't much time, however," he lifted up his glass and checked around finding a few players sti
Outside the station under the midnight sky, another cafe in the nearby city, a Cafe was opened with its Logo board glowing.Inside all the players were busy playing one single game Minus Zero, as a form of practice. In this place, the boss of the Cafe was the leader of a team.He too played this game with making sure of all the necessary conditions for his team. He was busy checking around when a monitor stopped him whose player was busy updating his character in Elf class."What's wrong?" he asked."Sir, we went on several runs now I need to update my Elf 's ball to keep up my track.""Do you need something?" asked the leader, boss of the cafe."Thank you so much. I am good to go.""Best of luck. Keep up the hard work" and he passed on.The Cafe was called Witch Cafe. According to the name, if you push your brain a bit further in thinking about the title then you pushed you to have a spirit of gamer.That's right.The players who were playing inside as teammates, all carried out witc
I will never stop (5/6)The Halfing thought to himself if the audience did have that many coins in their pockets hopefully, the Mage shouldn't find a way to get some in his hands.With a glow, the sword was sold. The Mayor announced aloud, "It was clever! The sword to be sold high 52,200 gold coins!"This sword status was excellent. It's Attack points: 11,220 (+20).Defense points: 9,012.Strength points: +30,100.Agility: 10,00.With the grade of Average and suitable for all sword carries. An easy simple supporter for combat in close range. Swordsmen would dream of such weapons in their sheath and here a single swordsman got a dream of his life named The Sword Halt.As the item got sold, the Halfing drew out his sword, and charged it high, with three forceful swings, he threw long slashes straight at Cecil.The Mage saw this and could only dodge it with cross arms.All the slashes crushed through his body, splashing out blood and the force of the third slash threw him high off the gro
Five elements attack (5/6)The Mayor called out the price of 4,521."4,600!" shouted a character aloud.Another interrupted, "4,779!".A third person cried out his price within the next second, "4,900!".All eyes were greedy, ready to snatch that object from the center of the ring at any moment. Prices were rising high in a rush from all around both sides. It even worried the one who requested first, followed by the rising rates of others.This item was very precious to half of the audience. Looking in long-term maps, through hidden treasures of ruins. Though, they would find prices, something this worth wasn't anything compared to all those treasures hunted.A final call. With it, the ring glowed and the item sold 10,887 gold coins.The Dreadful Wizard reached around the crowd, wondering on whom the call ended up. He grew serious sitting back. Even Cecil lifted his view at the customer, questioning who must have brought it. Staring at the customer, Cecil wasn't getting a clear picture
Cecil was seriously injured. He was trembling while standing. Gathering some strength, Cecil caught the blade, and quickly pulled it off his body, resulting in splashing out more blood. Suffering more in agony, he dropped on his knees, holding his waist while still, the hot blood was pouring down between his fingers. "Haah!!" all the viewers were sent to shock out of their skin. It happened within a blink of their eyes. Watching the Mage wounded wasn't their attention, however, all were wondering when this happened and why that harsh. "Cecil!!" cried Wide Wand from the audience's seat. He stood up to jump off and help him but, got grabbed back into his seat. "He.... hey! Watch it! Pin line! Why are you stopping me?!. Can't you see him?!. His condition is critical!" he argued back. "We know!!" replied his friend yelling explaining to him that Cecil mentioned earlier it was his battle and would carry out the task under his team's name "However, if we took a step in, Cecil wo
Adam smiled, selected his items, and price, speedily tapped his keyboard, and pressed enter.When the material came up, the entire audience's jaws fell open, Cecil saw it too and was lightly surprised but, then asked, "Introduce it, would ya?""Of course!" Leer the Halfing and said with his arms wide open, "You see this is a whole set of armor called Royal Ford Armor. You won't have to search it around while all the pieces are available here. It's built with very special care of materials and is basically of Silver rank. All can have it.... "Everyone got the status tag even Juray himself.ROYAL FORD [ALL 5 SET COMPLETE]:An armor from the elite rank with outstanding irons, Silver, and gold mending. A rare type.All set once. It has got five high skills all locked within the set.Collecting one piece unlocks a new skill while obtaining another strengthens the earlier skill, adding an upgrade to the new one.Increasing in strength and attack.

The first start was with Cecil.His circle glowed under his feet.On Juray 's screen, icons appeared for all the 10 items the team built. Using the mouse, he swift the arrow on a potion bottle. As the item came in the center, the item came in the center, it got a tag with the title,Start the amount from: -Juray thought fast typed 900 and pressed Enter.Inside the game, in the central ring, a bottle stood out in a non-gravity position, standing as lightweight. All the audience wondered in puzzlement."What's this?" asked the Halfing."It's called Soul Water. A self-made potion from common items like Honey or Elixirs and rare ones like Gila Herb and Fairy's tears." Explained Cecil in short his creation.As he spoke, the fighters were watching in amazement. While back for the players, when they viewed the selected items, their status appeared for them with it's price:Soul Water: A quarter contrite of a potion made from a fairy's tears and a few common items.When taking a sip, it refi
"See around you!." replied the Halfing opening his arms wide, "Only the local cheers you!. No doubt! They don't know about you as much as the regular fighters do.To be honest, all will fall in rage for you if I lose... So, be careful, you are not under their sight." he began to laugh in a wild tone,"And the second one?" asked the other side in an emotionless expression, puzzling the Halfing stop of his laugh, how and why wasn't he panicked?He coughed a little and continued, "Well, the second one is the ring we are standing on.... "Cecil glanced down at the surrounding field. The Halfing warned, "It's not an ordinary ring. There's a rule playing on it." He looked at the mayor, who nodded and explained it.This Ring of Auction was truly a battlefield however, it wasn't playing the role of an arena.Two characters stood on each side, performing a competition. If one side succeeds in his turn, he is allowed to get the chance to attack the other opponent without giving any permission f
A purple coat swift in the air, going over shoulders, wearing out the left arm and right, closing the buttons from the center, over it a lined cape floated down covering the back, and in the end, the diamond shape brooch.The Status showed the Results:Defense points +691.Strength points -286.Rest all was same other than these two.The player wasn't sure if this setting was good but, only hoped for good At this rate, perhaps his character would be able to hold on to some damages.At the Snow Square Village, people which included children, ladies, men, fighters, Team members, and single people, all gathered in the main square, getting seated inside a big circle and arranging seats, with many voices of excitement, whistling, chatting, and cheering.Within a minute after the announcement, the main square grew lively with people's eagerness and commenting.Looking at this extremely hot atmosphere for the first time in the village, the Mayor too got excited. He gazed at his right and lef
The three gentlemen followed up, Blade in Dew, arriving near a small house. The owner of the house, greeted them as they arrived, "Welcome Gentlemen. How may I help you?""My master would love to see the weapon you introduced me with," spoke Blade in Dew."Sure, sir. Come in" he welcomed them in and showed them the box, in it the sword lay.In the glass of Houng-Joe, who was the owner of Blade in Dew, came up the tag of status for the weapon:Name: Golden Feather.Type: B tank.Attack points: 892.Defense points: 991.Dexterity: 500.The class required: Guardians, Knights, Swordsmen, Warriors, and Soldiers.Level Required: 110-90.Seals unlocked: 1"How come?!" asked the Dreadful Wizard surprised, "The last time I got along here this sword always had 70 attacks less than eight defensive strengths. Then how come it raised without even being used?"Exactly, Yes!This was the same Golden Feather in which the Mage Cecil broke its first seal due to which its strength and attack increased.
