What The Luck!? Chapter 79
Advertisement
The pair was still following Onyx ad he stepped through the forest without leaving a trace. Asher was putting a significant amount of effort in to his movements so that he could copy the foot work technique. He had a strong base from playing foot work tag and challenging himself to battle Jane and Art. Now that he was seeing this new way of using his footwork with his whole body he was excited to try it out.
"This is so much easier than I thought," Asher exclaimed as he started to pick up his pace with the goal to catch up to Onyx. Laura was behind him looking at him like he had just told her the sun was cold, his words were just not believable.
"How could you be picking it up already. I am still leaving full foot prints?" Laura was dumbfounded, she watched Asher's feet and saw that there were only small imprints instead of massive and easily visible steps left behind.
"Before I do any training after my homework I do foot work tag with my friends. We have built up a base over the days since we started. So it is only natural that I could pick up the how to about this way of walking.
Onyx was silently listening to the two spoke as he moved forward at a slow pace for him. Normally he would already be halfway home to relax again. This time his interest had been caught by Asher.
'This kid must have a very solid understanding of the basic steps used in foot work. If he didn't act so strangely when we first met then I would say he might be an unknown genius.' Onyx couldn't hello but see the potential in the hard working Asher. It was plain to see even if you were not a martial arts expert.

Deciding he wanted to test the two he sped up his pace leaving them in the dust as he moved ahead. "He's moving faster. I could catch him if you weren't holding me back." Laura tried to use Asher as an excuse for her speed, but Asher knew better.
"If you just focused n what we were doing you could have it learned just as well as I do. But nooo instead you decide to whine about it and distract me." Asher was a little harsh in Laura but it was clear that she would need a heavy hand to change her rushing mentality to one of patience.
Laura was frustrated by this and gave Asher a slight push on his shoulder. The problem with this was that there were some vines in the trail ahead. They were the perfect challenge for campers who were desperately rushing through the hiking trails, many would give up because they would find traversing them to be too tough. That or they would believe that the trail they were on was overgrown and no longer used.
With the vines tangled around his combat boots, Asher fell and roled across some of the fines landing face first in to the ground. He was lucky not to hurt himself and after a moment of being stunned on the ground lifted his head. He was staring directly in to a small hole made by an animal in the base of a tree.
"Hahaha, thanks so much, Laura!" Onyx had heard the fall and seen Laura panicking after her annoyed bump had caused such a dramatic fall.
He had to backtrack t make sure the camper was not injured. He knew that if one of the three campers they needed to assist was hurt then Garnet would chew him out and give him a major scolding and most likely withhold a week's worth of pay.

"I was going to apologize but I guess if you can laugh like a crazy person then you ate fine." She stalked away unhappy that she was about to extend a hand to help him out.
"You don't get it, I was super worried about points and where to sleep tonight, but you helped me a lot just now. I would have missed this from how I was standing." Asher held up a gold shiny egg. He had seen this in the little hole in the base of the tree and he was happy
"What!?" Onyx and Laura explained in unison. They were both awestruck that Asher had managed to find the golden egg that nobody ever found year after year.
"I can't believe you found one of the most challenging tasks by sheer luck. If she hadn't have pushed you it would have been my turn to hide it."
'From what it sounded like the counselors take turns hiding the golden egg so that it was harder to track where it would be hidden.' Asher was memorizing this information that Onyx unwittingly gave. He also chose to note that the egg could be in the various areas and strange paces. The fact that it had been an animal's den was just the evidence he needed to prove this.
At first, Asher planned to eat a meal then walk around aimlessly deciding on what his game plan work be for the next day. Now that he would be able to plan out his day in a comfortable bed watching a television show he was even more excited.
"Well, I guess someone can finally open the egg and get the secret prize. Not that it will be a secret anymore." Onyx was trying to get Asher to move on to the best part about finish the egg. There was more to it than just being able to stay in the luxury cabin. They had long since placed a special prize inside the egg for when the first person would find it.
Asher looked at Onyx with confusion. He was worried that he would need to break the egg, however, he soon noticed that there were two pieces that screwed together. Asher quickly began to unscrew the two halves and open the egg to take a look inside. Laura was watching along lost in her own world of jealousy.

The Bronze Players of Recreation
The world of Creation has seen a recent explosion of what can only be called an adventurer’s culture over the past few decades. People who were once looked at as nothing more than lower class mercenaries rose to the ranks of heroes and legends as adventuring became recognized as an idealized lifestyle of overcoming hardship and finding triumph. With the establishment of a guild-based government system on the continent of Terramania, adventurers were soon legitimized and adventuring became a phenomenon universally accepted around the world. Redlette had retreated from this world to live on Earth for the remainder of her years, having been born and outcast by the gods of Creation. However, upon meeting a friend that she treasured dearly, she found herself longing for a return to her world—she wanted to experience it properly and go on adventures with someone whom she holds dear. Putting a plan into action, she meets with her friend, an awkward, nerdy boy by the username of Herring who she’d only known through years of playing online games with him, and invites him to go on this fantastic adventure with her. An adventure in another world had always been an impossible dream for Herring, but when he suddenly found himself with the opportunity to embark on one, he knew it wouldn’t be as simple as books and shows made it out to be. Redlette was notorious for rushing into things without thinking them through, and he was flighty and weak. In the games they played together, they rarely grasped victory. They were losers through and through, both in hobby and life. Despite this, though, he takes the leap and sets off with Redlette into the world of Creation. Together they only had one goal: to have fun and go on the adventure of their lives. This time, they’d establish a guild of their own and be free to take on whatever exploits their hearts desired. This is the story of the founding of their guild. Author’s Notes: -My writing style is largely based off of the absurd amount of light novels I’ve read and anime I’ve watched, so it may come off as cartoonish or exaggerative at times. If that isn’t your thing, I’d steer clear of this story.-Not an MMO story.-No numerical stats.-Relatively slow pacing.-Posts are between 2000-5000 words weekly after Chapter 1.
