"They're not bad." Alev had his armed cross as he walked through the field, unphased by the sunflowers. In actuality, the sunflowers were afraid of him. He radiated an aura that would intimidate even the bravest of beasts.
'Floor 1: Clear! First Place: Alev. Second Place: Nuki. Third Place: Vier. Fourth Place: Sylas. Fifth Place: Reane.'
"How the race works is that in the first 14 floors, you accumulate points by getting to the end of the respective floor the quickest, the last floor is an all out race. Having more points allows you to earn more tokens which you can trade in for boosts and advantages over others." Nuki explained to Vier, still ontop of his head.
"I would've been second if it weren't for you jumping off my head into the finishing line before me." A vein appeared on his forehead.
"Consider it a friend tax, you're only here cause I got you here." Nuki winked, climbing down him. She now had completely changed outfits again, she was now wearing a traditional samurai armor.
"Honestly, what is with that?" Vier pointed downwards to her. She was significantly smaller and shorter than him.
"Oh, I change fast." Nuki said sarcastically.
"Oh, makes sense." Vier didn't question it.
"He actually bought it!" Nuki thought to herself as her mouth was open wide.
'Vier: 6 Points. 217/500 Remaining.'
"Jesus, so many people died." Nuki checked her own screen.
'Nuki: 8 Points. 217/500 Remaining.'
"You suck." Nuki grinned at Vier with her eyes squinted.
"Shut up, what can I do with 6 points?" Vier opened up the shop. 'Random Magical Weapon: 20 Points. Random Skill: 15 Points. Random Armor: 10 Points. Random Artifact: 50 Points.'
"You're pretty broke." Nuki climbed down Vier.
"Hey, guys. You guys were outstanding!" Kreel said, followed by Ella, Abe, Drache and Bob.
"Hey!" Vier had a smile on his face, glad they didn't die.
"You." A man with red hair, tied in a man bun walked up towards Nuki and Vier. "How did you know?" He held a knife fashioned from stones and sticks up to Vier's neck.
"Who are you?" Vier remembered, it was the man from earlier who had pushed him. "Wait a minute, I remember you! You need to get glasses."
"Shut up." He dug the knife deeper into his throat.
"Hey!" Ella came and knocked the knife out of the man's hand, grabbing his forearm. "That's enough, Sylas."
"What do you think you're doing bitch?" He pulled her closer, whispering into her ear. "Stay out of this, sister."
"He's your brother?!" Vier was confused.
"Ha..." Ella was embarrassed. "Yeah, he can be a handful." She brushed off the threat Sylas made to her.
"What a dysfunctional family." Nuki thought to herself.
"You're Vier aren't you?" Sylas let go of Ella, making his way towards Vier, he snickered. "I expected someone better looking." Sylas was taller than Vier. By Vier's estimation, he was a whole 5 inches taller. "What do you think you're doing with my sister?" Sylas got into his face. "Don't try to be sly. I know what you're doing." Sylas and Vier were practically kissing.
"Give it up you two." Alev walked towards them and pushed their heads together, making them kiss. "Why don't we just all be friends?"
Vier and Sylas' lips touched one another. Their eyes widened in shock as they realised what happened.
"AGH!" Vier turned around, retching and spitting. Sylas did the same too.
Ella smiled and chuckled.
"My first kiss! I lost my first kiss to some ginger dude with anger issues!" Vier was practically vomiting at the thought.
"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT ABOUT?" Sylas turned around towards Alev, "Just you wait until I can kill you, you'll be first on my list." Sylas' eyes were glued onto his.
"I'm so scared! Oh great Sylas, please spare me!" Alev was sarcastic. "Try me." Alev's eyes widened, daring him to make a next move.
"Tch." Sylas turned around and looked at his sister. He said nothing, pointing his head downwards and walking away.
"What is it with him?" Vier wiped the blood away from his throat, "Aw man, it stained my favorite white shirt."
"Here, take this." Nuki was now dressed in jeans, a white shirt and sports shoes, mimicking what Vier is wearing.
"Where-" Vier looked down, he still had his clothes on.
"No, I did not steal your clothes and wear them in less than a second." Nuki gave him a white shirt.

"Floor 2: Labyrinth Of Ice.'
A door at the end of the field opened up. A large gust of cold wind rushed the venators that were infront of the gate, sending a chill down Vier's spine.
"It's an ice themed floor." Vier created a fire ball in his hand. "C'mon guys, let's go."
Hundreds of venators charged into the gate.
"DIE!" A demonic voice shouted, sending a large ice block crashing down on the naive venators who rushed in.
"AH!" Large shards of glass pierced through Vier's clothes and into his body. "Fuck!" He was standing infront of everyone, taking on the full bront of the attack.
'17/500 HP'
Vier's entire vision was blinking red. He was losing sight and his chest started to feel heavy. Blood rushed in to fill his lungs, slowly choking him out and suffocating him in his own blood.
"Ugggggh." Unface was sitting down in his throne infront of Vier, who was sat on a wooden chair. "Can you, like, learn to not die?"
Vier woke up, checking his body with holes. He sighed a sigh of relief. "I'm not immortal like you, dumbass."
"No no, I'm mortal okay." Unface took out the same pair of shears. "Sorry for kinda, stabbing you." He pointed towards Vier's abdomen.
He lifted his shirt up, "And it hurt a lot." revealing a bandage that wrapped around his stomach.
"Well, this is why I needed to draw your blood." Unface placed the shears on the table. A four leaf clover pattern was engraved on the blade. "[Clover's Dice] enchantment. When combined with [Atropos' Touch], it has a 1 in 10,000 chance of killing an immortal." He grabbed the shears off the table, raising it up. "Wanna play Russian roulette?" He drives the blade into his chest, cutting through his skin and drawing blood.
