Chapter 6 - Reason To Play

night fell slowly and the city begins to light up, once inside the tavern ravoth ordered two beers, two drunks fighting, men laughing and singing, the atmosphere you would expect from a place like this

"So, what brings you to this place" Ravoth asked as she slid a jar of frothy beer "I do not know, maybe I just wanted to get away from reality I guess" replied iris taking the jar with her claws

Ravoth laughed "like everyone else"

iris had not taken into account her claw when taking the beer mug and before she can taste, the jug was already on the floor "I'll never get used to having this instead of fingers" complained iris "¿have what ? " Ravoth looked confused

"Do not you see?" iris raised his right arm

"umm ... nop" ravoth tried to find something different but only saw a normal arm

iris explained to Ravoth what happened in her few hours of play

"I see, then with more reason I want to ask you this favor" ravoth had a serious face "there is a caravan , south of here they are not far away but they will move soon, I want you to attack that caravan, bring me what you can and free their prisoners, obviously I'll give you equipment to arm your zombies and ammunition for your crossbow, what do you say? "

what's the trick?" iris knew that it was a good offer maybe too good "it is possible that one of the generals of yder is with them"

"a general?" , more important yder the one who tries to dominate the world

"A general is a player whose power, if you put it in levels it would be at maximum"

"Why would another player help yder, isn't that stupid?

"because he also offered a reward to the one who gets more achievements in his name"

"So we're screwed" iris let out a short sigh "okay I'm in, only if you add a plate of hot food and tell me why the hell won't you go" Ravoth took a sip of beer "I have very important issues to attend, this game is not just about moving a sword to kill someone ,you know "

"So without reinforcements and against a fucking general , lovely"

after making the preparations, having taken a bag and filling it with red and blue crystals, the first of which generated a small explosion when it touched the ground and the second ones generated smoke by breaking them. Iris left to the south , it was not difficult to find the caravan and she did not see someone who looked like a player "a and b will take positions in the front while c and i take the rear" she said to her zombies to her bad luck was a plain without sites from where to flank them or take them by surprise so her best option was to attack in front, when the caravan was a few meters away, iris gave the order to attack "a and b attack together, it will be faster if you concentrate your attacks, c do not let anyone approach me "the clashes of the swords broke the silence followed by cries of panic among the civilians , iris knew that they would not hold much but out of nowhere the silence returned and her zombies fall .She did not believe what happened, they beat her so easy even having the advantage" and I was waiting for Lynnet's coward to appear tonight, you're just a vulgar thief. "

"And i expected to see a general, not someone who is not able to show his face, what's the matter, do you lack self-esteem?" iris wanted to win as much time as possible a general is someone capable of frying her with just moving his hands or so she thought and before having time to think about a plan, she had a wound in her leg "do not be so insolent if I do not show me it's because I'm so quick that you can't see me "

"wha ...."she couldn't say another word , more and more wounds appear on her body, her clothes became red "you seem confused so I'll tell you, the magic is not just to burn or freeze, create or destroy, if you use it correctly gives us more strength, agility, defenses, among others, an elemental magician in the service of yder is 10 times stronger and faster than before but I, I am a hundred times faster than before "when iris could see black a figure that made a quick movement "agh ..." her right eye was gone

It was when she lost all hope of leaving alive that a man in a white and gold armor stood in front of her and pushed the general back, generating a shock wave that almost made her fly , ravoth was taking her by the arm. "Are you ok?. can you make it to akut? "iris smiled" you lying bitch ... do you think I'm okay? " she ended up collapsing and returning to her room , knowing that her avatar would be in good hands she decided to end the day and go to sleep but she could still feel how her face and body were cut again and again, now she had a goal: to defeat that general
