I dashed towards the mad boar and make a liner attack, and I kick off the ground at full force and then perform a mid-air forward somersault, reversing grip at the same time. When I land, I thrust my sword into the ground. At the moment, a surge of electricity is generated by the sword, and it hit the mad boar directly suffers physical damage, while other boar passing by caught in the range of the electric attack is stunned. The boar gradually disappeared and become a broken glass blown away by the wind
"Woah! How did I do that?" I was amazed and looked at the sword I was holding; I check the history of this sword
"Lambent Light is a one-handed rapier, it is made of carbon steel blade, and paint is baked into the metal. Comes in the wooden sheath" After that, I returned the rapier, even though Sachi said that I already owned this I still feel unfair for her
"Where else I can go?" I remember that all the players have a map here. I searched for the map and then looked at where the nearest town was. I'm currently here on the first floor, the main settlement on the first floor is the Town of Beginners, but there are also numerous other towns and villages on this floor
"I'm currently here in the Horunka village" While pointing my location on the map; Horunka is a village located to the northwest of the town of the beginners. While I was scanning the map a message suddenly came I opened and read the message, it was an invitation for front line players; it says that there is a meeting in the amphitheater at ten o'clock today it was located in the Tolbana Town
I started walking, good thing it's seven o'clock I don't need to hurry, while I was on my way I encounter low-level monsters and I attacked them for me to get used to the sword.
The Tolbana is the second largest town on the 1st floor, approximately 200 meters wide. It is the closest town to the 1st floor Labyrinth, only 30 minutes from its entrance. The town is lined with large windmills. Tolbana has several bars and restaurants, three inns, and several NPC houses; you can also rent the 2nd floor of a farmer's house. Tolbana also has several fountains' and an amphitheater-like meeting place. Its main plaza is known as 'Fountain Square'.
I saw a large mind will, meaning I'm already in the Tolbana, I entered the gate and A NPC guard. Entering the town I was greeted by many people who were chatting and busy people. As I was close to the amphitheater hit me
"Ouch!"
"Sorry, are you okay?" The man who hit me helped me to stand
"Thank you" I looked at the man, he looks familiar but I'm not sure where I saw him
"I'm sorry I'm in a hurry that's why I didn't notice you" He apologies while scratching his head
"Nah it's okay I also know that I'm not looking at the road. I looked at him closely, he has orange-brownish chestnut hair, hazel eyes and there is one thing to describe the 'Greek God'
"Are you sure you are okay?" I didn't notice that he was talking to me
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm going ahead of you" I had already started to walk and I had not gone far when I heard the voice of the man who had collided with me
"Hey! Are you going to the amphitheater too?" I nod "Great! I'm also going there but it looks like you're new here"
"How did you know?" My forehead wrinkled
"Because you're on the wrong path, hehe" Even his laugh it's mesmerizing
Out of embarrassment I immediately turned away
"Hey! It's okay I will guide you, let's go" He said while smiling. I could do nothing but to follow him
We had reached the amphitheater; I sit in the middle so he followed me and sit beside me. Another man went on stage.
"Thank you everyone for accepting my invitation today!" The man on the stage continues "I'm Sokka, we'll then, the active front liners, or rather, the top players of ESCAPE, the reason for gathering you all here is clear. Today, our party has made it to the 40TH-floor boss room! We'll finally use our power to defeat the boss!" Sokka was a strong and natural leader, having led the raiding group with almost no casualties and inspiring fellow players to clear the death game with his speech of determination "At this point, even though we took 20 years.. We must spread the message that this game of death, will one day end" Determination can be seen in his eyes and in his words "It is why we gather here today! This is the duty of us high-level players!" He encourages the front liners
It means they have been here for almost a year and a half in the real world, but they have only cleared the 40th floor?
"Hey! Can I ask? Why do you put up with so long here if you can log out?" I asked him. He was shocked by my question
"There is no log out of the system of all the players who are here. There is one way to log out, reach the 100th floor, and beat the Boss. That's the only way" He said seriously
And that hits me, is this how we all students of Serenity in the real world end up?
Fight for our life?..
