BloodBrothers

A notorious clan full of outlaws reside somewhere in the mountain range at the Kingdom of Kramoris. They usually rob the merchant caravan or expedition group for a living but occasionally, the clan also raid small village or even a town. BloodBrothers start their notorious activity 6 years a go and quickly getting famous after a few famous raid incident.It is said after two years enjoying the life of outlaws, the clan leader quit the game after he fail challenging for the Emperor seat and the clan get disband shortly after.

But a week after the breaking news about the clan Pulse reviving the first Emperor,BloodBrothers leader and former member returned to the game and the clan resurfaced with their notorious way. The clan used to had 10,000 member each specialized in a duel and raid but it is unknown on their current strength.

*********

On their way to the clan hideout, they encountered monster here and there. But Chrono and Sitka never lift a finger, that leave Aramis fighting alone. Chrono tried to hide his combat skill and Sitka didn't fight just because she is the clan high rank member which mean her level is a lot higher than Chrono and Aramis combined.

Despite of his arrogance, Aramis quite a skillful user. He can fight 1 or 2 strong monster at once without breaking a sweat.As a musketeer class, Aramis used rapier as his weapon and relied on his dexterity to fight. He mainly use thrust attack and every time he pulled out his rapier from the enemy body after a thrust, they will get minor bleed. Chrono can guess that Aramis is proficient using rapier even in real life.

"(I'm glad I didn't fight him earlier, it will be a pain in the ass)".

"Why you didn't help him fight?"

" I just a harmless merchant"

"Is that so?" Sitka smile wryly.

They continued their trip after Aramis cleared every monster hindering their way. Finally, they found their way to the secret hideout. As soon as they arrived, Sitka seek audience with the clan leader, Jurek. They was told that Jurek currently at the meeting hall.When they arrive, it's quite easy for Chrono to determine which one is Jurek even without using his eye, everyone around him treat him with respect and he exceptionally tall compare to other user around him. A lot more taller, bigger and fiercer looking than any other user's.

An Ogre

Jurek is a three metered tall giant wearing a heavy armor and a big 2.5 metered mace on his back. As he walked, Chrono felt as if the world it self moved, a dignity only for the challenger of the Emperor Seat! . Like Seth, Jurek is not someone Chrono should mess with. Jurek walked to Chrono and stop right in front of him.

"Hmmm....Is this the person you told me Sitka?"

"Yes"

Without saying anything, Jurek swing his mace toward Chrono!

CRAACK!!!

You've been hit.

Thanks to Chrono reflex, he manage to dodge it somehow at the last moment. But the mace manage to destroy Chrono Happy Mask and Chrono health decrease more than 50%.As the mask broke, Chrono blood red eye now are visible. Chrono finally can see how fierce Jurek ogre face look like with his eye.

".........Let him join." Jurek walk out of the meeting hall without saying another word.

"Congratulation and welcome." Sitka smile while extending her arm to Chrono.

"Th, tha....Thank you." While wearing Happy Mask, Chrono didn't see Sitka and Aramis face. Now that he can see, he blushed seeing a goddess like smile from Sitka, truly beautiful.

"I heard you tried to attacked him in Daisy right?" A user ask Aramis after witnessing the scene.

"Yes"

"You're lucky Sitka stopped you."

"(Blood red eye!!)". Aramis still in shock seeing Chrono eye colors.

One of the basic way to determine on how strong a chaotic user is by looking at their eye color. Most chaotic user had a dim red eye which mean they only slain a person or two at a time and if they wait a little, they can get rid of their chaotic status. More concentrated red color means the user killed more thus their skill level and their infamy point can be determine from that. A blood red eye means Chrono is on the killing spree without getting caught by authority even once.

Chrono and most normal user didn't know this fact since it's the fact only known by an experience chaotic user.

*************

After getting accept, Sitka take Chrono on a tour around the hideout. She explain on the clan usual activity,how they will act on attack from the authority and what Chrono should do as the clan only merchant. His job currently is to craft equipment for all the clan member, selling loot from the robbery, buying things and gathering information in the town.Of course Chrono can only enter chaotic town for now but later Sitka said they will teach Chrono on how to enter normal town while in chaotic status.

Things to note in the hideout for Chrono is assembly hall, training hall, armory,kitchen and the clan treasury.Assembly hall is the place for the clan member to gather to hear speech from the leader usually before a raid mission or when the leader want to announce something. Assembly hall also the place for tha clan member to hanging out.

Training hall is a neat place where the clan member can fight each other until they died without getting any death penalty. In return, no drop or experience gained by defeating each other in training hall.Even skill can't be raise in the training hall and usually the clan member use it just to have fun fighting each other but every month the leader gather every clan member to fight at the training hall to determine the clan fighting strength.

Kitchen, is where the clan member make their food for future hunt or raid. Usually each of them make their own food because most of them already max their cooking mastery to intermediate level 1. Since Jurek is an ogre, he got no cooking mastery and can't make any food. But in return, Emperor Saga make his taste bud a lot more different than regular user. For example, eating raw wolf meat will taste like a delicious steak to Jurek and he even get temporary buff from it.

Armory is where the clan keep the weapon they got from the robbery. Normal clan didn't have armory because usually every member handle their own equipment. But BloodBrothers is a bandit clan that get a lot of equipment drop by robbing and killing user.Since they can't sell all the equipment, they just dump all the equipment they got here at armory.

The clan treasury is where the clan member keep their valuable things. Technically, its the clan storage room since chaotic player can't access normal storage room. The treasury is 3 times,larger than a normal clan storage room but its barely fit for the whole clan member to keep their things. Unlike normal storage room that get manage by honest NPC, the clan member need to manage their storage room themselves here.

Finally, Sitka told Chrono that their leader always hanging out at the meeting hall or training hall.And Chrono can ask any veteran member here for help. Chaotic user mostly played the game just for fun which mean they are not bad people. Sitka told Chrono all veteran BloodBrothers member are quite helpful and kind to new member.

"Okay, I think that's all for now. I will pass you the quest the leader gave me before so I can pass it to you."

Clan Quest : Craft Our Equipment

The clan leader, Jurek ask you to craft and perfectly fine tuning all of the clan member equipment.

Condition : Complete after you craft full set equipment complete with fine tuning to every clan member.

Reward : 1 gold and Clan rank up

"( 1 gold for crafting a whole clan full equipment set complete with fine tuning? What a stingy leader)"

But Chrono didn't voice out his opinion, he doesn't need to get the material to craft because the clan already provided all the material needed and Chrono can raise his blacksmith skill a lot by crafting one whole clan full set equipment.Even without money, Chrono still get benefit from this.

" Could you ask the clan member below level 100 to meet me here? I need to measure and know their fighting style before I can craft their equipment."

"Okay, I will do that"

"But make sure only 100 member meet me at a time. After I complete all 100 member equipment, you can ask another 100 clan member to meet me."

"Okay, sure."

"Should I ask them now?"

"No, I will ready my workshop first.I will tell you as soon as I'm ready."

The reason on why Chrono wanted to craft the clan member below level 100 first is simply because his blacksmith skill can be considered low for now. He plan to raise it gradually by crafting low level user equipment first.And low level user can asked Chrono to craft for their equipment again after they raised their level.

After he ready his workshop, Sitka asked 100 clan member to meet Chrono to craft their equipment.Personally, Sitka felt excited since never before a merchant join the clan and craft their equipment simply because merchant is their natural enemy as a bandit clan.

Chrono start his job soon after he finished meeting with all 100 member.Since some of the user used leather armor, Chrono prepared his clothing workshop as well. Instead of fast crafting, Chrono take his time to craft and try to craft the equipment without a single flaw.

Even with a tiniest flaw that doesn't effect the equipment performance, Chrono will remake the equipment again. There is a time when he even remake the item 10 times just because the decoration doesn't match the equipment.All of this only possible because right now he has endless of material to craft.By the end of the day, Chrono manage to craft equipment for 20 clan member.

Since he craft the full set, combining weapon,armor,boot,gauntlet,legging and various other such as hat or helmet depending on the user,this means he make more than 100 equipment on the first day. Now his blacksmith skill rise by 2 while his clothing skill rise by 3

Clothing skill rose to level 5

Blacksmith skill rose to level 8

*********************

After logging out, Daniel go straight to sleep.

On the next day, Daniel start the day by eating a meal after having a shower. He then start by jogging to the abandon building, his usual training place.As soon as he arrive at the abandon building, he start his body training exercise with hundred push up, hundred sit up and a thousand star jump. After one minute rest, Daniel do the body training exercise like what he learned from the website.

Thanks to breathing technique he learned from the website, Daniel manage to workout for 3 hour straight. After his body training, he continued with his rigorous sword practice. He swing the sword around by imagining fighting the previous monster and user's he used to fought.Handling a real sword is not an easy task, there's a danger of slipping the sword or when the sword hit one own body accidentally. But thanks to Daniel talent and his sword practice in the game, he manage to handle the sword without major accident.

When he finish his daily training, Daniel went back to home, take a shower after a meal then logging in to the game.

**********

As soon as he log in, Chrono continued his equipment crafting.He decide to make the equipment until he log out this time.

"(Today I hope I can complete 30 equipment set.)"

He continue his work diligently, sometime he take one or two minute rest out of fatigue.When his satiety level get too low, he go to the clan kitchen and make some food to eat. The clan kitchen got a variety of food ingredient, it even got bread for user that hate to cook.

But Chrono personally crave for a decent food thanks to his day in the Forest of Beast where he need to eat bread for more then 2 weeks. And since his cooking skill used to be low level and his food supply are limited, he need to endure crappy food cook by himself. He used to buy food when he is a normal user before, but in Forest of Beast there's no food stall to buy a decent food.

After he finally get a decent level in cooking mastery, he crave for more better food to eat. Because he doesn't have any expensive food ingredient in his real home, sometime he log in to the game just to cook and taste food that he will never get to taste in real life. Now Chrono just love to cook to satisfy his food desire.

He back to his equipment crafting after eating his meal.With his diligent way of crafting, even though he craft every single equipment with great detail, he manage to craft another 20 equipment set, faster then yesterday.

"(With this, I can craft 30 set equipment or more by the end of the day)"

Chrono continued his equipment crafting without any rest, by the end of the day he manage to craft 35 equipment set. His blacksmith and clothing skill rise by another level.

Clothing skill rose to level 6

Blacksmith skill rose to level 9
