Chapter 5: Nighttime Forest
After school the next day...
Ulrich and Mira are currently talking about if they should log in or not in front of a Login.
Ulrich: "So do you just want to log in? Everyone else is busy."
Mira: "Why not? Just because we're rookies doesn't mean we can't log in and fight the first boss at least."
Ulrich: "I mean... fair enough."
She pulls out her ID Card.
Mira: "Come on. We've got the time today."
Ulrich pulls out and looks at his ID Glove.
Ulrich: "(sighing) Only doing that today."
Ulrich slips on his glove and heads inside.
Mira: "No need to worry."
Mira logs in.
However...
Zack and William are currently discussing things with a man in a black suit inside of an office several dozen stories in the sky.
Zack: "So yeah, we've got an Engineer and Tactician, Walker."
Walker: "I see..."
Walker is currently typing up something on his computer.
Walker: "Just note that I'm only going to give them Legendary Gem class weapons."
William: "I don't blame you at all. You only just introduced the Eternal Starlight class of weapons."
Walker notices that the two are logged in.
Walker: "Looks like these two are logged in."
Zack: "I thought we agreed that we weren't logging in today!"
Walker: "Didn't you see this a couple other times in your group?
Both let out a sigh.
William: "(sighing) Then we'll go ahead and check on them."
The two awkwardly shuffle towards a nearby room.
Meanwhile...
The both of them are standing in the plaza of the Delta server.
Mira: "So we need to head to the forests here to get this guy?"
Ulrich: "According to the bulletin board."
They both charge straight out of town.
Ulrich: "Also, we're logging out after we're done."
Mira: "Fine by me."
Meanwhile...
Zack and William log in and are currently in the plaza.
William: "Looks like they're already gone."
Zack: "Then let's head over to Rank 1's hideout."
The two give chase.
A little while later...
Mira and Ulrich have arrived at the edge of a clearing surrounded by trees.
Ulrich: "Wow... this place is actually kind of pretty."
They spot a large, crimson armored wolf with a strange, black liquid oozing out of it's mouth.
Mira: "Looks like that's Rank 1."
They both leap into the clearing, immediately catching it's attention.
Ulrich: "This guy's gotten a little upgrade since the old days. He's got a sort of deteriorating drool that'll sap away our health if we stand in it for too long."
They both ready their weapons.
Mira: "You focus on building traps while I keep it busy."
Ulrich starts creating mines.
Ulrich: "Go ahead."
Mira and the boss charge right for each other while Ulrich starts planting the mines.
Mira: "Show me what you've got!"
Mira creates a sort of barrier to defend herself against the attack.
Ulrich: "Mira!"
The ground is starting to deteriorate from the black drool.
Mira: "Do you have your mines all set?"
Ulrich is twirling his rusted wrench in his hand.
Ulrich: "No problem at all."
The wolf rams straight into Ulrich while he wasn't looking, halving his HP in one strike.
Mira: "Hold o-"
Mira steps into one of Ulrich's mines, causing her HP to drop to about a third.
Mira: "(coughing) Yeah that wasn't really a good idea in hindsight."
Ulrich is sent crashing into a nearby tree.
Ulrich: "(in pain) Yeah we're completely fucked."
???: "Go into your inventory now!"
The two get their footing.
Ulrich/ Mira: "Our inventory."
They frantically check their inventories to find two items, an Onyx Wrench for Ulrich, and the Monocle of Death for Mira.
Ulrich: "I'll gladly take it."
They equip the new weapons as the boss starts covering the battlefield in drool. A black pair of goggles for Mira and a wrench giving off a menacing aura for Ulrich.
???: "Hurry!"
Black drones start forming in Ulrich's hand while Mira's math is starting to turn black.
Mira: "Let's see what these bad boys can do!"
The drones hone in and start firing at the boss.
Ulrich: "I like this sort of fighting!"
Ulrich makes some space between him and the boss while Mira charges for it.
Mira: "Where's the nearest bomb?"
Ulrich: "Three feet towards the left."
Mira's math ensnares the boss and begins to rapidly chip away it it's health.
Mira: "(struggling) Have a nice trip!"
Mira tosses the boss into the mine, causing everything to explode and the boss' health to nearly hit zero.
Ulrich: "I'm on it!"
Ulrich crafts a grenade in his hand.
Ulrich: "Hasta la vista!"
He sends the grenade straight into the boss' mouth, killing it instantly.
???: "Not bad at all."
William and Zack step out of the shadows as the newcomers rise to Lv11.
Mira: "How'd you know we logged in?"
Zack: "We were having a meeting with Walker about giving you two Legendary Gem weapons when he discovered that you two were online."
Ulrich: "Oh..."
The wind signifies this awkward science.
William: "We'r not mad, but it would've been nice to have everyone watch your first fight."
Mira: "Your problem, not ours."
William and Zack awkwardly look at each other.
Zack: "(awkwardly) Yeah, even Cole says things about her like that."
William: "(awkwardly) Y-Yeah..."
