" What are you ogling at? " A voice called from behind. Turning around Ryuens eyes were met with Hyacinth's menacing gaze.
Judging from the tone of her voice, she wasn't asking very nicely.
But, it is not every day that people are suddenly transported inside a video game in which they have to fight to survive. People are bound to get stressed. So this behaviour can be accepted for some time in the initial stages. That's why Ryuen is keeping up with her conundrums.
" Just admiring the beauty of this place. " Lucian said with a polite smile. But, his politeness was met with silence.
Hyacinth wrapped her hands around her chest and walked off.
' Nothing good comes out of tolerating fools.' Lucian thought. He will have to put Hyacinth into her place in the future. But, he would like to explore the map's beauty right now.
Choosing to blissfully ignore her was a good decision because as Lucian was getting back to appreciating the beauty of the map he came across the giant turtle's cave. It is in this cave where the giant turtle resides. At certain time stamps, the turtle wakes up and comes out of his cave. If you attack the turtle and chase it back inside its cave, the turtle sheds a lot of gold that can be looted by the teams and used to purchase items.
Under normal circumstances, when Lucian is playing on a screen, you can only see the cave's dark entrance and wait for the turtle to come out. But, now that he is inside the cave, he can explore it and see it with his own eyes. The giant turtle is a very extravagant creature, even when its beauty is limited to the graphics of a game. He can't imagine how beautiful it might be in real life.
' This feels like a fever dream. ' Lucian thought as he walked towards the cave. His excitement was clear in his jumpy strides like a child going to buy his favourite snack.
" Don't go in unless you want to get hurt. " Hyacinth's annoying voice echoed again. And Lucian has decided that he has had enough of her antics.
" What is your deal ? " Lucian said in an annoyed tone as he rolled his eyes.
" What do you mean? " Hyacinth said as she crossed her hands, offended by the rude tone that Lucian used to address her.
" I am asking what is your deal? " Lucian did not back down " You pretend to be soo tough and hard yet even when you know that you ain't got shit to back that pride of yours. You are rude to everybody, you think you are above everyone and treat everyone like dirt. " Lucian said with fierceness in his voice. She needs to know Lucian is not someone she can freely mess with.
" Ahh," She scoffed. " Fine, go in. " She said mockingly as she raised her hands in affirmation.
" I did not ask for your permission, I asked for you to tone down that fake tough-guy attitude of yours. " Lucian said. Without waiting for a reply, he went inside the cave.
" OH YEAH! WELL AFTER GOING IN YOU WON'T BE IN THE CONDITION TO ASK FOR ANYTHING ! " She exclaimed as she thought of all the possible things that could be said to clap back. But alas his silhouette has already faded into the darkness of the cave.
" He will just have to learn the hard... " Hyacinth angrily murmured as she rubbed her hand with a hint of anxiousness. "It's not my fault... I warned him. " She said as she talked to herself. The burrows on her forehead clearly expressed the concern that she was trying to hide.
" If he is going to act like that then he will get what he deserves ! " She said in an aggravated tone as she tried to fog her mind with anger. " He is not my responsibility. " She is having a full-blown conversation with herself.
Taking a deep breath in, she looked at the dark cave and ran inside it.
