Asher doesn't expect to see that one of the players has received such a serious injury and he decides to help him. However, a monstrous creature immediately pulls the poor player and eats him alive.
"Oh my!" Asher dilated his eyes and his body trembled incessantly.
The monstrous creature instantly turns his head and stares at Asher then quickly runs towards him. He immediately quickens his footsteps and tried to find something to kill the creature.
"Sh**! Sh**! " Asher kept running and checking his items but there is only 1x potion and 1x bomb obtained when killing the slimes in the previous quest. Without thinking he immediately throws the bomb at the monster and successfully kills the creature.
However, the terrifying creatures there just keep popping out from behind the bushes and attacking each player one by one. The players' screams sound so loud and realistic to Asher's ears, it makes his heart beat faster and faster.
"Gosh, why is the game like this!" Asher continued to speed up his footsteps until he gets to the front of the door where they first entered. "Hey, help!" Asher knocked on the door repeatedly but it simply does not open. "Someone, help!"
Unfortunately, a terrifying thing looking like a red-eyed wolf is walking over with sharp canines and dripping saliva. Asher doesn't know what to do with the situation in a corner at all and decides to attack the creature by advancing and pointing his staff.
"This wolf is so fast, I can't even touch it." Asher continues aiming at his staff, but the creature easily avoids them. "Damn! How's this?"
More and more creatures appeared, putting him in a corner. Their red eyes look like they are going to tear off his body with their sharp canine teeth. Asher does not do anything at all, the ability he has can only heal not fight the creatures.
"Damn it! "
The creature simultaneously jumps and grabs Asher's body and the screen around him goes dark. A few seconds later, Asher re-spawned in the village along with the other players. He still feels a bit traumatized remembering how he dies on the first trial.
"I need to be able to find a party to make it easier to complete this quest." Asher moved his eyeballs and tried to find players in the magic swordsman class, but most of them already had a party and re-entered the dungeon.
"Ah, it's difficult if it's like this. I could just change classes, but that will take time." Asher grumbled in annoyance and suddenly an idea crossed his mind.
He immediately runs to visit one of the shops in the village and plans to buy a bomb item from one of the NPC, but his money is only enough to buy about 5x or 6x bombs and it seems that it is very little to kill all the creatures in the dungeon. So, he aborts his intention and looks for players who may not have a group yet.
"This is hard, I should probably get someone to play with me." Asher strokes his chin and instantly snaps his fingers. "Wait! I know whom to ask."
Asher smiles widely and decides to quit the game for today, but just as he is about to remove the nerve gear from his head, a black-haired woman suddenly appears in front of him to his surprise.
"Oh my, Aunt Luna!" Ethan stroked his chest repeatedly. "What's auntie doing here."
The woman furrows her brows at Ethan's words. "I should be the one asking what you're doing." Aunt Luna points at the wall clock in Ethan's room. "It's almost night and you're still busy playing the game?"
Ethan continues bowing his head listening to the long lecture from Aunt Luna. He can feel the heat flowing down his head but considering that Aunt Luna is charging his mother directly to look after him, he can only stay silent and wait until all the words from his aunt's mouth are done.
"Ah, never mind. Now take a shower and change your clothes!" Aunt Luna raised her voice and walks out of Ethan's room. "I'll make dinner, hurry up."
"Yes, Auntie." Ethan scratched his head and runs to the bathroom immediately.
A fragrant scent passes Ethan's nose as he comes out of the bathroom, making his stomach starts to rumble. He instantly runs to the kitchen and sees dinner in the form of a bowl of rice, vegetable soup, and several pieces of meat covered with sauce.
"Ethan, hurry up and eat. We need to keep our bodies healthy." Aunt Luna sat down and sets the plate on the table.
Ethan nods and they begin to eat the meal in a very quiet atmosphere until he can hear the sound of spoons and plates touching each other.
"Auntie, is there any news from Mom?" Ethan broke the silence.
The woman with the same face as his mother shakes her head. "I've already gone to the company, but they won't let anyone else in if it's not a member of the ABC (Alistair Bio-Tech Company)."
"Strange, I also call Mom several times, but she doesn't pick up my calls at all." He rolled his eyes. "Urgh! Why she always likes this?"
Aunt Luna could only sigh. "Well, my twin sister is a workaholic like me."
After dinner, Ethan immediately contacts one of his close friends at school, Aidan, and invites him to play the game "Fantasy Online System". Aidan accepts Ethan's offer but on the condition of helping him with his schoolwork and Ethan agrees with it.
"So when do we play?" Aidan's voice sounded so excited. "After online class?"
"Yeah, good idea." Ethan snapped his fingers quickly. "I'll wait for you at the Altaria village square, ok?"
"All right, see you tomorrow."
***
They finally met in the village square of Altaria. Asher read in the info column that the creature which attack him had a fairly high-speed level, but for classes like sword magic and assassin, it is not complicated for the class. They finally enter the forest and start completing the quest.

Aidan a.k.a Chronos slashes easily killing every monster coming from all directions and trying to attack them. His dash skill is capable of making his move easily and cutting down the wild wolves.
"Cure!." Asher pointed his staff at Chronos and immediately added to his health meter.
"Well done, Asher." Chronos eagerly dodged the attacks of the wolves and slashed straight at the creatures.
However, suddenly one of the wolves jumps at Asher and makes him fall to the ground
"Chronos! Help!" Asher resisted the wild wolf's bite with his staff until his hands start shaking.
The wolf's fangs come so close to Asher's face that almost touch his nose. Chronos immediately draws his sword until the wolf's blood splashes on Asher's face and instantly kills him.
"Oh my, that's close." Asher lets out a long breath. "I don't want to experience dying a second time."
Chronos helps Asher up and they continue on their way. However, there is a sudden strange movement behind the bush in front of them. A few seconds later, the same wolf appeared, but it has a different size and sharp fangs.
"Damn! A bigger wolf?"
