Slowly Learning
A loud clank rolled through the cavernous tunnels. There was a spark of light as mighty swords struck the soft, protective shell of a Worker Crawler. The yellow and black vermin fought back aggressively, swinging it’s large head at us. The antennas on it’s front head acted like a whip with spikes, causing extra damage as it thumped it’s head against us.
Our feline tank hold up well against the crawler, occasionally blocking it’s steady attacks. The crawler suddenly turned around, facing Yasko, a linkshell friend of mine. It closed it’s mouth for a gobbling on something while staring angrily at Yasko. Look out,
I cried out, but my warning came too late. The crawler spewed a silk like substance toward Yasko, hitting a tarutaru damage dealer standing behind her. Eww,
she cried disgusted. The silk was slowing their attacks down, and I felt sorry for them. I could only imagine how it must feel to be covered in something icky like that. I closed my eyes, trying to cast a spell to remedy the silk. I started molding my mana into a curative spell to completely remove the detrimental effect, but the spell failed completely. I’m sorry, I just can’t cast Erase at this level,
I told my party, saddened by the limitations put forth by Level Sync.
Eat this,
our tank hissed at the crawler, grabbing its attention. She lashed the crawler into the ground with her sword, provoking the monster even further. The crawler got back up at it’s tentacle-like feet, hitting the tank with a big swooping motion. Our feline friend bashed her shield into the crawler, stunning it for a moment. The crawler looked worn out, and it’s attacks had slowed down considerably. This ought to do it,
Yasko said, launching a powerful combo on the crawler. The crawler fell over, whimpering in pain. The party cheered, having defeated the crawler. Now let’s get the next,
our tarutaru Thief said eagerly, running off into a tunnel looking for more crawlers.
I had set out to get four levels that day, but ending up getting five. I was overjoyed, having now become a level 48 Scholar. What wondrous adventures lie ahead of me?
I wondered.
