《World Fragment Online》Chapter 9: Planning Phase
Advertisement
At the center of the city, there was a gathering of players who had come to receive the Faerie Queen's buff in addition to the effects of staying at the fountain itself.
The Faerie Fountain boosts your status for 3 hours.

The queen, whose name was Isaine according to the name plate hovering above her head, could be seen standing inside a transforming letter circle on top of a podium at the center of the fountain with her eyes closed in deep focus.
Faerie Queen Isaine
Status Ability: 50 Ruler of the Fae Member of Zera Shard Council
With her one hand clasped around the other which was made into a fist, the queen's gradated silver hair swayed silently sometimes curling between her semi-transparent wings and ending at her tail bone. Her sky blue robe fluttered projecting an air of elegance towards which a significant amount of male players and a minor amount of female players were gawking and shouting out towards her to 'show her tits' and other obscenities, likely forgetting the large wolf marching over here at the moment. I found Karl and Nicky discussing something with a three other players away from that spectacle and quietly moved towards them.
"I don't think any of us could take a level 100 world boss face to face. If any of us try to stand in front of that thing, we'd probably die instantly given our status rating. Without knowing the method to revive, no one's going to agree to that." said one of them before continuing, "The best option is still to lay out traps and with how fast that thing is approaching the city, we probably have about an hour till it reaches the walls."

"But what can we use as a trap? The bloody monster towers above the trees. We can't exactly make a pitfall in one hour." retorted Karl.
"Why not just let it hit the city wall and see what happens then?" said Nicky only to be rebutted by another member of their circle who said, "And what if the thing gets stronger when it enters the city?"
"We don't have any other options do we?" said Nicky as one of the others in the group turned towards me.
"Hey, who are you?" asked one of them to me as I approached.
"Jason, I'm acquainted with this two." I said motioning to Karl and Nicky.
"Alright Jason, gonna pitch in an idea or two? As you can see, the majority of players here aren't too keen on taking down the Fenrir." the woman said to me with her expression a bit sour.
Thinking back to what I had seen when those players charged at the wolf, I don't think you could fight something like that head on which meant direct combat was a no-go. I wondered if there was a way to do remote bombardment but the prices of the weapons in the weapon store made me toss away that idea too. The only remaining options were to set up traps or wait for something to happen therefore...
"I think we should wait and see what happens when the Fenrir nears the city. After all, we can't really face that thing right now no matter how we look at it and it looks like the queen is doing something" motioning towards the glowing queen who now had transforming letter circles rotating using her as an axis.
"Yeah and what if it gets stronger?" said the man who suggested using traps earlier, "I don't think we should be idling around when we could be doing something!"

"And what exactly is that something?" I asked resulting in him having an expression of taking a mental dump.
"Guess we'll have to wait and see then." said Karl who along with the others had agreed with the proposal to 'wait and see'.
The group dispersed and went about their own business. Nicky observed the queen with another person of the group whilst Karl made several gestures with his hands, activating various magic codes most probably. As for me, I went did a quick look through the item store to look for combat assist items like smoke bombs and pepper gas canisters, if they had any whilst that trap guy when towards the city walls.
After an hour, the place began to rumble, shocking the players within the city. Some of them even began to panic and cry saying things like 'I don't want to die' and 'I'm only x years old'. At the entrance of the item store, I could see a ball of light, the queen enshrouded in a thick aura of light, hovering a significant deal above the fountain with her arms extended outwards. The queen coldly looked at the Fenrir which was now battering on the city walls before clapping her hands together, releasing a magical shockwave, and extending her right index forward towards the beast. With her finger as the axis, the queen's aura condensed into a series of rotating circular formations which then unleashed a devastatingly powerful blast of magic, pulsing all the way with luminescent halos as it railed the beast.
"GUUUUOOOOAAARR!!" roared the Fenrir as it stumbled backwards, it's fur changing to a shade of white. At the same time, I focused on the Fenrir's name plate and saw something unbelievable.
Fracture Fenrir
Level 70 (Faerie Curse, Level Down) Type: World Boss Faerie curse inflicted.
The boss's level had been spectacularly nuked. With this, us players should stand more of a chance in a direct confrontation.

The Legendary Class
At the height of the Age of Terror, humankind lay shattered, its few survivors scattered like dust in the wind. It is said that at the brink of extinction, the Gods intervened and blessed five champions known as “The Titans” with legendary classes. To this day, every small child dreams of obtaining a legendary class. Whether there is any truth to this ancient tale is unknown, but it is a certainty that in each generation perhaps a handful of those children will, in fact, obtain a legendary class. But, if they ever did, the Gods no longer answer prayers, and, in modern times, a legendary class is often far from a blessing.

The Triumphs and Tribulations of Kai Jameson
Kai Jameson is an average everyday young man. He still lives at home with his parents after having just graduated from college. He loves playing video games and his job at the local Buy More is tolerable. Of course that all changes the moment the system arrives and the Earth is connected to the Nexus. Turns out Kai was trapped in time for about eighteen months while the people already here got a headstart on him. He lucks into being rescued by some people from a town called Donnyton and learns that if he wants to survive in this New Earth he'll have to work harder than ever before. The rewards are worth it. This is Kai's story, the moments of his triumphs, and the moments when he feels that things couldn't possibly be worse. Thanks to puddles4263 and his story The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound for the inspiration on the world this is set in. If you have never read that I highly recommend it, and if you have read it and enjoyed that story then I hope you'll enjoy mine as well. This is the first story I'm ever putting out for public consumption so reader beware on that. Any constructive criticism is always appreciated, simply leaving a half star review tells me that you're a moron who doesn't know how to use words. I'm constantly trying to improve my writing and feedback and criticism on what works and what doesn't is the only way to do that at the point I feel I am at. Last, I just marked all the content warnings because you never know where a story will take you and I don't want to exclude anything (though there will never be a harem). I am going to release 1-2 chapters per week on Fridays. Thanks and enjoy.
