“Portals will open shortly. Please finalize your decisions and proceed at the front of your Selected Portal.”

“Ah geez. I need to find her. I’m really sorry if I can’t go with you,” Mikaila apologized.

“It’s okay! We can still meet inside the game. We’ll just add you to our Friend List so we can keep in touch,” Arianne said.

“Sure!” Mikaila agreed.

Arianne and their classmates sent friend requests to Mikaila.

“Again, Portals will open shortly. Please finalize your decisions and proceed at the front of your Selected Portal,” an announcement was heard again.

“I’ll just accept these later. I need to find my friend first,” Mikaila said.

“It’s okay! You can do it anytime,” Sheena replied.

“Uhm, Mikaila. We will be going. Good luck out there and if you need help, just contact us and we’ll keep in touch,” Arianne told Mikaila.

“Sure, Arii, and thank you! You too, good luck out there!”

They smiled and bid their farewells.

    The bunnies continued to grow until they reached the size of a fully grown human. Still, the sky continues to darken. Later on, silhouettes of big flying creatures swirled in the sky. Their wings are large enough to cast big shadows on the ground. “Aren’t those nighthawks?” one spectator asked. “Yes, but they are abnormally ginormous,” another commented. One of the giant nighthawks swooped from the air to capture a rabbit. Some of the players are fascinated to see the action. Everything was fine until the other nighthawks also swooped from the sky one by one and started to attack randomly. They also started preying on the humans. “Hey. Is this still normal?” Frenz worried. Suddenly, “Help me!” a man shouted as he struggles to escape the claws of a nighthawk that was pinning him on the ground. The giant hawk, then, pecked the man’s head and ripped it off from its body. Everybody was shocked to see the horrifying scene. “Hey, what’s going on?” a player whispered with a frighte

    Marco is disappointed to hear what Jonas said. “Chill Bro! Let them be!” he said to Jonas.“What the hell is wrong with you!?” Frenz shouted to Jonas while crying.“Tch!”The aftermath of the Game Event is very depressing. Lifeless and mutilated bodies of players are scattered in the area. The surviving players are crying after the loss of their friends and loved ones. Some are still traumatized and are just gazing blankly. Some can’t comprehend the agonizing event they experienced.Marco opened his UI and opened his Friend List Panel. He checked the User Information of both Sheena and Lahra. He saw that it was already grayed out and the word ‘DECEASED’ already replaced their names at the top of the Information window. Marco curled his fist out of anger and disbelief.Moments later, turmoil started between the players and the Starting Point Guide. Marco walked towards the commotion; the rest followed.“Why did you do this to us?” a player cried.“What did we do to deserve this?”“Don’t

    After hours of walking, the group found a pond in a distant area. “Uggghhh, my feet are getting hurt,” Frenz moaned. “It’s already getting dark. I think we should get some rest here,” Marco said. “Is it safe here? I don’t know... I mean, after all that happened a while ago… It’s so hard not to be uneasy,” Arianne’s concern. “True!” Frenz affirmed. “Well, we have no choice but to settle first,” Marco said. “Are you okay Ma’am Arianne? If you need something, just tell us,” the wounded bodyguard said to Arianne. “I’m okay! I’m more concerned about you. Are you alright?” “Don’t worry about me, Ma’am! It’s just small scratches and few wounds.” “I just want to thank you for trying to save me a while ago. But… if something happens to me next time, please don’t risk your lives for me.” Arianne politely requested. “But Ma’am, your safety is our top priority. That’s the order given to us by your family,” the other guard insisted. “No! You also need to be safe! And you should look afte

    An Event has been triggered!” Marco exclaimed. “Quick! Check the details!” Virgo instructed. “Freeeeenz!!” Arii wailed out of worry. Seconds later, “Bwaaaaappp!”. Frenz emerged from the water! “I’m.. okay! It… only…. got my shoe!” Frenz exclaimed as he try to spit water from his mouth and catch his breath. They quickly helped Frenz crawl out from the shore. “What is it? What happened to you?” Arii asked. “I didn’t see!... We must ... get out of here!” Frenz said while still panicking. “AAAAAAAyyyy!” Arii and Frenz screamed as a bizarre creature suddenly emerged from the water. They quickly scattered and fled in terror. “AAAahhhh! Get away from me!” Frenz screamed as the creature keeps on chasing him on the land. “It’s only going after Frenz!” Virgo noticed. “What is that thing? It’s like a crocodile with a shell of a tortoise.” Samson commented. Marco quickly opened his UI to check the Trigger Event Details, “‘Buhagong’s Hunger’ …. It says we should kill that thing before

    “Wait, you’re……” Mikaila asked. “There’s no time! Quick! Follow me!” Nikko invited. Mikaila took a glimpse at the two fighting animals. She saw that they were distracted. “Wait!” Mikaila said to Nikko. “What are you planning to do?” Mikaila sprinted towards Celly’s incapacitated body. “What are you doing? Leave her! She’s already dead!” Nikko pointed out. Moments after, Mikaila ran towards Nikko. “What’s going on?” Mikaila asked. Nikko didn’t answer. He just ran off and asked Mikaila to follow him. “Here, let’s go!” Nikko said as he climbed up a tree. A loud roar coming from the ape was heard. “Hurry up!” “Okay!” Mikaila began climbing. While climbing, they saw the ape approaching them. The two climbed faster. When the ape came, Mikaila was already high up for the ape to reach while standing. Mikaila felt relieved. But unexpectedly, The ape jumped and reached Mikaila’s foot. The ape pulled down Mikaila and ferociously beat her to a pulp. Nikko saw how Mikaila was bea

    “….It’s… it’s the Guide!” Mikaila exclaimed as they discover that their guide is one of the dead people. “But... but why!? I don’t understand.” The lady becomes more terrified. Mikaila continued, “What exactly happened here? We left and headed to the forest before the Event started. I wasn’t able to witness everything.” “Same with me. My group went to the forest as soon as we crossed the Portal.” Nikko responded, “The big animals killed these people.” “Can you elaborate, please?” the lady requested. “When the Game Event started, the sky suddenly became dark. The birds grew and started attacking people. Big wolves came out from the forest and ravaged. People started to panic. After that, I set off to look for…” Nikko paused. “....for Mikaila. That’s it.” “I still don’t understand,” the lady said. “We don’t know the exact details. But one thing is for sure, the Game Event had something to do with this.” Nikko nodded. “I think we should find the way out now,” the lady suggested.

    “It’s closing!” Mika said. The Portal continued shrinking and completely closed. The three were surprised and dumbfounded. “So… what now?” Lumine asked. “We really need to find another way out,” Mika answered. “We’ll do that tomorrow,” Nikko butted in. Mika agreed, “I agree. It’s too dangerous to travel at the night.” Lumine sighed, “Well, we have no choice.” They all accepted to spend the night at the top of the trees. Later on, Lumine noticed something about Mika. “By the way, Mika, why are your clothes like that?” she asked. “What do you mean?” “They’re all torn and ragged. What happened to you earlier?” Nikko butted in, “An ape killed her. But she rose from the dead.” “A what now?” Lumine’s confused expression. “Uh - eh,” Mika tried to explain what happened without mentioning the secret of why she survived the attack. Lumine is still confused, “I don’t understand Nikko. Is he joking or something?” “No. It’s true,” Mika mumbled. “What!? That’s crazy! How’d that happe

    Mika moved closer to Nikko and Lumine’s spot to confirm. “You… you’re right! The bodies are gone!” Mika exclaimed. The three climbed down the tree and walked towards the Starting Point which was full of dead bodies earlier. When they arrived at the area and looked closer, they confirmed that all bodies were gone. All that was left are the players’ wristbands. “Have you witnessed what happened here?” Mika asked Lumine. “No,” Lumine answered. “I just woke up and noticed that Nikko is not around. I walked around the bridging branches to search for him. I found him staring at this field with a shocked face. I asked him what was wrong but he didn’t answer, so I walked closer to find it out myself. And then that’s it! The dead bodies are miraculously gone!” she narrated. Mika is confused and shocked at the same time. She stooped down to grab one of the wristbands lying on the ground. She found out that the wristband is not functioning anymore and it is also not glowing. While staring a

    “Are… Are you sure you want me to stay here?” “Yep! Don’t worry, Mr… erm… Papa! While you’re still undergoing Lumine’s special medication, you can stay here in the camp,” Arii answered the worried Papa. “But - But… What if this weapon will control me again? What if I go nuts again!?” Papa worriedly asked. “Don’t worry, Sir. We’ll do everything we can to contain you if that happens,” Orixa answered. “While we’re still finding a way to remove that Scythe for you, we can assure you that you’ll be safe in our camp.” “O-okay!” “Uhm… Mr. Papa. We learned what happened to you and your family. We’re sincerely sorry for your loss. But, uhm… you know, our Little Tommy also lost his family. Maybe it may help both of you if you were to act as his father and take care of him,” Arii said. Arii’s words put a smile on Papa’s face. “Su - sure! Where is he?” he answered. “He’s inside his room. You want to visit him?” Orixa asked. Papa nodded his head. Moments later, “Hey, Tom - Tom. Somebody w

Lots of machines and apparatus can be found inside the lab.Lumine and Tusha are in the laboratory.“Raft! Everyone!” Lumine greeted her friends.“Lumine! Arii said that you went with them voluntarily. We thought you already betrayed us *cough*,” Virgo said.“No! I would never!” Lumine answered.Arii bowed in shame. “Sorry if I misunderstood what happened, guys,” she apologized.“No, it’s okay Arii. It’s also my fault that I left without a proper explanation. I left you to worry,” Lumine said.“So… There must be a deeper reason why you’re here…” Raft uttered.“Actually… there is,” Lumine answered as she looked at Tusha.“Oh - yeah! I remember you said that Tusha is a BBC,” Frenz said.Everyone is confused. “BBC!?” they uttered in unison.“The robot thing?” Frenz added.“It’s NPC, Frenz,” Arii corrected.Mario is giggling at the corner. “BBC - the heck

Are you okay?”Suddenly, tears start rolling from Mika’s eyes. She suddenly hugged Frenz. “Freeeenz! I’m sorry!

    “Bolt!? Why are you here!?” Spike uttered. “Everyone, please stop! This is not the right thing to do!” Bolt shouted to the armed kids. “Go away, Bolt! You already betrayed our group, you don’t belong here anymore!” “Hey… Spike. I know that they got Auntie. But these people came to help us!” Spike was moved by what Bolt said. “...What?” “Hey! Don’t listen to that kid!” Aize scolded Spike. Spike is torn by his indecisiveness. “These people can help us, Spike. Come on, do the right thing and stop listening to that man. They’re just using us as their weapons.” After saying these words, Bolt is starting to persuade Spike and the other kids. They lowered their weapons. “Look! They’re about to defeat them. Everything will change if you don’t follow Aize’s orders,” Bolt’s continuous persuasion. Spike bowed down in silence. Later on, “...... You’re right,” he said as he dropped his weapon.

Why am I also transported here? *cough*” “It’s because you didn’t move away, you idiot,” Minerva answered Skald. “I’m also here too,” the kid that guarded Nikko said. Minerva sighed at the sight of the kid. All of them were transported in one of Coco’s Controlled Dimensions to fight the lone Nikko. The theme in this controlled Dimension is a vast flatland. “Move away, you two. I already defeated this guy. I’ll make it quick this time,” Minerva confidently uttered as she approaches Nikko. “Don’t make this hard for you. Admit defeat and I’ll consider taking you out of here unharmed,” Minerva proudly demanded Nikko. “...” “Stubborn, aren’t you? Well… it couldn’t be helped, I’ll just put you down like the last time we clashed together,” Minerva stated as she drew her sword and pointed it at Nikko.

But when she moved closer, she felt the Violent Winds pushing her away. Still, she tried to strike Yufa, but her attack was blocked by the Violent Winds.Yufa completed her Charging Phase. Then,“Auster’s Blade!!”She forcefully slashed her polearm in a diagonal motion. A thick and powerful Wind Blade gushed out from her weapon.Orixa was able to dodge the Wind Blade, but the explosive winds produced by the Move pushed her away. She stumbled and rolled to the wet ground, but she recovered back to her feet immediately.“Those protective winds swirling around her are very troublesome. I need to strike faster than the winds so my attacks will pass through,” Orixa uttered in her mind. She prepared to attack once again. In a blink of an eye, she moved and went past Yufa.“Rip

Nikko: Go to that man over there.} Nikko is referring to Leo. {Mika: But why? Nikko: I heard that he has the weapons of our friends inside his Utility Bag. Mika: You’re right. I heard it too.

Don’t take action until I give the signal, okay? Mika: Ok. Nikko: Go!} The three started moving. Mika went towards the direction where Leo is standing. Arii followed Mika.

    “Friends!?” Orixa’s reaction. After a short realization, “You bastards! What did you do to them!?” “You’ll meet them shortly,” Minerva replied. “Let go of me!” Orixa uttered as she keeps on struggling. Minerva, together with Coco, Skald, and Lorelei forced Orixa to walk towards the Tavern’s sidewall. “Aah! Why didn’t we think of this?” Orixa uttered after chuckling scornfully. “Let me guess? One of the rooms in the Corridor leads to your real Base?” Coco didn’t answer. Instead, she looked back to the crowd and yelled, “Every one of you here, get out of this Tavern! Now!” “Eh!? But we’re still celebrating here!” one of the customers demanded. “I SAID… I WANT EVERYONE OUT!” Coco repeated. But now, the tone is more intense and scary. Every irrelevant customer exited the Tavern. They left with disappointed faces. After the crowd left the Tavern, Coco proceeded in opening a Special Portal on the wall. From her pocket, she pulled four Talismans. The Talismans look like flat pieces
