“Now… as you can see, the attributes - or whichever you want to call it - but preferably, we like to use the term ‘Stats’, and they are divided into three classifications, namely Body, Mind, and Spirit,” Raft explained. Mika, Lumine, and Nikko listened carefully. Raft continued, “Let’s start with the body. These are the stats that consist of the physical prowess of the body. Endurance is the measurement of how the body can resist damage and injury. It also shows the overall stamina of the player. So, the higher the endurance, the greater the character can tank damage, it also allows the player to perform rigorous work for a long time.” “I see,” Nikko whispered. Mika heard Nikko’s mumbling. “Huh? Is there something you want to contribute, Nikko?” she asked. “I believe it’s the reason why I get tired so easily,” Nikko answered. “Oh! Right! I understand! Maybe that’s the reason since the Fantasy Booster modified - or should I say, tampered - our system and reset all our attributes t

Utopian Fantasy: "A Fair Game" Chapter 18: "Crazy People"
“We’ve been talking for a long while now, but we still haven’t asked their names yet!” Mario realized. Raft realized it too, “Bruh.” “Bruh.” “Is there something wrong?” Mika asked. “Ahh… uhm… please pardon us but… what are your names again? Actually, we can easily know it by checking your UIs but it will be more polite if it’s coming from you. Hehe,” Raft awkwardly asked - trying to be as polite as possible. “Hmm…” Mika mumbled. She faced Nikko as if she was waiting for confirmation whether or not she should share their identities. Nikko thought for a moment, but after a short while, he decided to agree. He nodded to Mika as a sign of confirmation. Mika faced Lumine to ask her opinion, but Lumine agreed as soon as Mika faced her. Mika turned her attention towards Raft and Mario. “I am Mika, and this is Nikko,” she said as she introduces Nikko who was standing on her side. “And she is Lumine. We only met yesterday, but she’s been keeping company,” she added. “Oh, nice! Once aga
Utopian Fantasy: "A Fair Game" Chapter 19: Gygaltax
“So, where are we going exactly?” Lumine asked. “We’re going to a special ore mine - east of the Bridging Forest and North of the plains,” Raft answered. “‘Bridging Forest?’” “It’s the same forest where we came from a while ago. We just like to call it that way because of the cool bridge-like branches of the trees,” Mario replied. “Witty idea! Okay, from now on, I’m also gonna call it ‘Bridging Forest’” Lumine said. “Same,” Mika also said. The group continued their travels. After a while Mika became curious. “Can you tell us about the mine we’re heading to?” she asked. “Actually, it’s not a mine. It’s more like a crystal deposit. That special spot is brimming with ores and minerals. But what makes the mine unique is it is also a place where we can find a special material called Gygaltax,” Raft explained. “What’s a Gygaltax?” Lumine asked. “Gygaltax is a crystal-like mineral that has a unique property. It can be embedded in weapons and equipment and it is said that it can boo
Utopian Fantasy: "A Fair Game" Chapter 20: The Core
“What do you mean it’s not there?” Raft asked. “I almost destroyed half its body, but I couldn’t see it anywhere!” “Look harder, Bro!” “I already did!” “Uhm, guys?” “What is it, Lumine?” Mika asked. “The wristband,” Lumine pointed out. “It’s glowing!” Mika and Raft also looked at their wristbands. They also confirmed it’s glowing. They were shocked. “What’s the meaning of this?” Mika mustered. Raft, then, commanded Mario, “Bro! Get out of there, now!” “Why!? We need to defeat this creature and collect its core,” Mario replied. “Get out of there first!” Raft insisted. Suddenly, the body of the Gygaltax Guardian started to tremble. Afterward, crystals quickly and dangerously protruded from its body to repair its damaged parts. The quick protrusion almost hit Mario; luckily he was able to swiftly step back. “Bro, we need to fall back first!” “But… the materials!” Mario’s stubborn reply. “We’ll get back to it later. We need to figure out what’s happening first.” “No! I’m no
Utopian Fantasy: "A Fair Game" Chapter 21: Friendly Duel to The Death
“NO!! WAIT!!” Raft shouted. Quickly, Raft threw a Barrier device at Mika, Lumine, and Nikko; Lumine was able to catch it. Mario, then, readied his barrier to shield Mario’s attack. Mario continued rushing to Raft and attacked Raft with his Devastation move. Raft was able to shield himself, but a huge explosion was caused by Mario’s attack. The impact pushed the three spectators even though Lumine was able to use the barrier that Raft gave them. “That was dangerous! It could have killed us!” Mika exclaimed. “Luckily, Raft was able to give this shield just in time,” Lumine sighed. Meanwhile, “You really want a duel, huh?” Raft asked. “It’s been years since our last. And I always lose to you no matter what. Now that I’m slightly advanced in Stats, I think I can score a win this time.” Mario charged at Raft again. “Wait! I’m not yet ready!” Mario smashes Raft’s shield barrier repeatedly. The impact of each blow caused Raft to be pushed back; each hit made him step back. While shie

“Then, I’ll give you what you want.” Raft pressed something at his glove and his pair of boots. His gloves transformed into a bigger ones, and metallic booster flaps emerged from the glove. Energy was emitted on the booster, the glove glowed a purple color and began to charge. The same happened to the boots, flaps protruded and emitted some energy. Mario is starting to regret asking Raft for a duel. He trembled in fear. “Oh, you scared? Don’t worry, this won’t kill you. Just a few broken bones that's all,” Raft said with an evil grin. After moments of charging, Raft propelled and flew towards the immobile Mario with an intense speed. The impact of Raft’s take-off left a crater on the ground. To save his life, Mario reached for an item from the pocket on his vest. He throws the item on the ground and smoke starts to disseminate. The smoke covered and hid his body. Mario’s action made Raft cautious. Raft halted and didn’t continue his attack. He just floated on the ground and asses

“Oh, okay. At least we already confirmed their locations. And we can meet them sooner - knowing they’re not far from here,” Raft replied. Mika nodded. “So, Raft, when will you start crafting our equipment?” Lumine asked. “I’ll be starting later. I’ll just set up my working bench and I’ll begin right away,” Raft answered. “But it’s getting late. Aren’t you tired from earlier? I think we all should rest now.” “Don’t worry! I’m used to doing things overnight!” Raft assured. “Hmm… okay,” Lumine replied. She then yawned. “I’m already sleepy. I’ll go inside and rest now.” Raft nodded. “Goodnight, Lumine!” Mika said. “Night!” Lumine proceeded to the ladies’ tent to sleep. Nikko is next - he went inside the men’s tent to rest. Mika, Raft, and Mario - still paralyzed and lying on the ground - were the only ones left outside. “How about you, Mika? Won’t you be sleeping too?” Raft asked. “Don’t worry, the turrets that I placed nearby will be enough to protect us.” “No, I’ll just stay

Epilogue
“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

The players arrived at the Base’s Main Laboratory.The laboratory is quite vast and well-structured for just a recently-built facility. 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

“Giiiiiirl!!!” Frenz yelled as he came to approach Mika. “Girl, I like your new powers,” he complimented.Mika didn’t respond. She just stared at Frenz awkwardly.“Uhm… Mika? Hellooooo? Are you okay?”Suddenly, tears start rolling from Mika’s eyes. She suddenly hugged Frenz. “Freeeenz! I’m sorry! I didn’t know you were suffering that much!” she sobbed.Frenz is confused by the situation. “Uhm… what’s happening?”Arii also came. “Mikaaa! You’re so cool right now!”Mika also stared at Arii. After a few seconds, “Ariiiii! Sorry if I didn’t know! I just want to hug you now!” Mika cried as she hugs Arii.The others came too.“You guys! Why didn’t you tell me that you’re feeling that way? I feel like a bad friend now,” Mika uttered as she hugged each of her friends.Everyone is puzzled by Mika’s behavior.“What’s happening to her?” Marco asked.“Is this some side effect of her powers?” Mario hunched.“I don’t know…” Orixa replied. “But that’s not important right now.

“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. The other kids did the same. Seeing the other kids’ decision, Bolt can’t help but let out a gl

“Uhh… why am I caught up by Coco’s Spell? 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. She also used her Magic Amulet to create her Icicle Arm. Minerva starts to chant a Spell, “Icicle Spear!” An Ice Spear formed in front of her. A

The gusts of Violent Winds completely enveloped and protected Yufa like a body barrier. She assumed a Charging Stance again to prepare another Move.Orixa quickly slides towards Yufa in an attempt to disrupt the Move. 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

Chapter 104: Give Them What They Want
Ariilily: But how can we help them with just the three of us? Nikko: I have a plan. Mika: Really? That’s great. What should we do? 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. But what should we do after that? Our friends are still bound by those magic chains. Nikko: I can dispel those chains. Mika: You can do that? Nikko: Yes. Mika: Nice! Nikko: Go there now. 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. Seeing that his captured friends are clustered together in one small area, Nikko lifted his arm and pointed his sword at that area. He stayed like that for a few seconds. Then, “Done,” he uttered in his mind. He put away his sword and rushed in a specific direction. Mika and Arii have now reached Le

“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
