MINUS ZERO A frightening Victory.
"DARN IT" the Noble ran to the beast as he was still 70 yards away from them. Cecil stood up holding his bleeding arm, which got kicked earlier. The Boss looked at the two items on the ground which dropped from the Hidden Boss. He ignored them and checked its other side. Its sight went on Cecil's injured hand. The piece was there. It grew greedy for it. Its roar and strike, its Axe straight at him. Cecil twisted aside, avoiding the hit, as it landed straight near his boots' tips, the weave of slashes crushed on his body dropping his HP on Juray's glass. Suddenly, a white glow shine all over him and he was fine, normal again yet, still trapped. The Boss had blocked any view side for the Mage with its huge body to see around so, Cecil's eyes balls were fixed on it. Whereas, Noble who was still coming, looked back at the team. All were worried as they could see from the height, top view of the cornered character. The Boss kicked Cecil serval times to the wall and pressed him under its
MINUS ZERO Losers advice are sometimes worthy.
Before leaving, as fixed Cecil picked up the drops and stored them in his eternal pouch. The other player's inky waitress till he was done.If it was for other players, like in before trying years, when the team company in with the Mage would clear the job, they would grab the drops crazily and leave the Mage behind empty-handed. It was always heartbreaking for him but, this time it was different. It felt strange for him to be the one to carry out the drops instead of others and that also been the first one too.Later, outside after exiting the stage, the team met around in the green meadows. The Final Boss giant Imp didn't drop any items however, apart from the Hidden Boss the Iron teeth mole, left behind three. Two were the items a bull fist hand armor.Bull fist hand Armor was for free hand fighters like Martial Art fighters, Combat skills, and berserkers. It didn't ride points of defense, balance, or man's power but, was extremely helpful in attacks. Such as fighters using fist po
MINUS ZERO First visit to white map for the mage.
"A Glass crystal is one rare and unique item of all. It's very valuable and sensitive that only Nobles including Rulers can get their hands to control it. It's not a problem if an expert is seen having it however, it causes great problems for amateurs. Blames and probably stealing are their torturing. It was a good thing I was around to lay my hands on it.....Secondly" explained to the Musketeer while both the characters were walking on the long rough road through the wasteland. Heading now to the winter zone on foot was going to take a while. Even when there were teleportation rings around to walk on a map and reach the destination in no time, they choose to walk on foot. Juray lifted up his glass and checked the time looking at the huge clock on the wall. It was 12:55 am. Obviously, he was getting late for bed but, it was a blue rose mission and all had to be there in time to complete it. He wasn't worried about sleep, no matter how late he slept he was always a fresh early bird.
MINUS ZERO A Magician's happy tricks.
15 minutes passed, and Cecil sat there getting bored. He sighed a deep one and stared at the mantle on the floor. With his un-gloved hand, he picked up some snow on it and shaped it like a ball. His fingertips turned pink from the freezing ball on the bare hand.Unexpectedly, the ball begins to shine. To his surprise, it changed into a tiny cute fluffy rabbit sitting in his palm, which made him happy, and then the rabbit took a shape of a circle, changing into a sparkling blue butterfly."WOW!" wondered Cecil in excitement, "Amazing".Slowly, the butterfly flapped its wings and took off from his hand. Cecil stood up looking at it growing happier. The butterfly returned back to him and flew all around him, from around his arms, around his body, one shoulder to another. It was releasing snow sprinkling everywhere it flew and then sat straight on Cecil ''s nose. Looking straight into it, he tipped it and it puffed away.Realizing the trick he said with a smile, "You are pretty good at tr

Waking up and getting prepared for the University, Juray was busy packing up his bag. While picking up the books, he saw his M Z ID card and got recalled the last night's event.When he read the email, he simply closed it, got offline, ejected the card, and left back. Passing by the counter, Yu-say looked up at him but, Juray went away and suddenly stopped when he heard, "Have a good sleep." He looked back at the counter boy, who was smiling like a friendly boy with his lazy-looking eyes. Juray silently left away.At present Juray got out into the station's hall. In the meantime, the man was available, "Ah! Juray! you are leaving?""Yes," answered the student in confusion looking around.The station was crowded with adults playing different games, using Wi-Fi while sitting and some having tea for morning refreshment while playing. It seemed the station would never rest too dark."It feels easy to be around here early" respond the man his view of the environment, "So quiet and refresh
MINUS ZERO A Jumbled Room.
"Excuse me..... madam," asked the Long shooter to a citizen lady with a basket of cosmos. "Oh! a noble....yes," she responds humbly. "Do you have any knowledge of where the mage Cecil lives?" "My goodness!" astonished the Lady by the question and preferred not to go there, explaining it was dark and gloomy. No fighters or even citizens lived there, "you are a Noble sir, you are not supposed to even breathe there...." "I have a friend who lives on that street. I wish to visit him" were his replies. The Lady realized that he insists on his visit and won't turn back. Thus, she had no choice except to tell him the address. In the Town No:1 of summer winds, corner dark street. A Noble's boots heels pace echoes as entering the empty street. The street was dark with no sunlight passing in, no one could understand living whether the sky was told morning or evening sunset. Twitter of birds was the only way. Dust and dirt were everywhere. Doors were broken and windows shattered with no sig
MINUS ZERO Trusting in and out.
Trusting friends was also important in this game. Since thousands to millions of players were attending it, trust helped in growing through one another.Even though one player would turn into furious rivals aside from it, a player's skill and method of playing always came useful to another.For example, if a character is an expert in completing high places with quick jumpers and is known well for it, the other player who has to compulsory complete a task which includes jumping, he would mail him/her to let him some items or join him in it to fulfill his needs.The requested player then checks the trusting bar of the sender through the profile in his character, and how much he is reliable.If more than 30 percent is marked then the new friend is ensured this player is trusting me worthy among the game and can be followed up. But, if it displays less, even one digit, the request is rejected.However, many players don't pay attention to these things cause, they love having fights around
MINUS ZERO Why do you love this game?" un-responsible question
Sitting in the room, the Noble Long shooter begins to explain about the second Blue Rose mission. He said it was personally made by the Prince. Every year Six Nobles picked up a character and accompanied them to an Academy where the character grew stronger to a fixed level and then their mission was complete. It depended on the character's admission to the Academy for how long they would be available.Long shooter told his choice, this time was the Mage as signed directly from His Highness for the personal mission."Question?" interrupted Cecil lifting his palm to pause his speech and asking, "why does HIS highness always keep his nose on me?". Why can't that man leave me the way I am?" he expressed his statement in short that he has hundreds of strong fighters among his men and all around his town. Still, he is after me? Doesn't even fills?.....This question was even more difficult for Long shooter to understand. He never understood the Prince's attention on the Mage however, as a m
