“Grrr..” the golden gorilla looked at me with so much anger. It was a tough monster since it was called Fuse Kong. Fuse Kong is said to be the most powerful monster if it was a little bit more intellectual. The ability of this monster is that the first core that they eat from a monster will give them the monster's strength and abilities. Most of these monsters from the early stage already ate some weak monster’s cores, therefore, fusing them with weak abilities but this one is different. It doesn’t yet show any unusual skills but its toughness is already incredible even its speed and power.

The gorilla just stands there waiting for me to move. I’m guessing it doesn’t have any energy to spare some wasteful moves, in fact, this one is much intelligent than I thought. Are all fused kong here like this? It would be troublesome if I met more of them in the future. Even so, I am going to end it now. “Ha!” I launched myself directly to the golden gorilla. Going on its range it began to throw a punch but [water slice] blades of water attack the gorilla from behind. The gorilla felt the attack and groans as it finally has some effects. At the same time, I swung my blade enchanted with fire. The gorilla tried to block it with one of its arm but [wind blade] before my sword reached millimeters before his arm I released two wind blades cutting it more effectively. It was also a unique skill called [double cut] but activating it this way is much easier. *Groooaa!!!* Finally some deep wound on his arm! Not wasting any more time as the gorilla roared in pain [earthwall] two walls erected in a slanting line pushing the gorilla back into the river. Going into the river I jump behind it and delivered another slice from its back. *clang* I didn’t use any enchantment and meant to knock his body down to the water. As fast as the body enters the water [Freeze]. The gorilla is now frozen! “Wooh” finally it's done.

It was a tough battle but I managed to survive. Perhaps if it was a little bit stronger it might be able to kill me but if I let myself killed by this monster knowing I can beat it means memory erase. “Oh well, I guess I’ll prepare some fire for some barbeque he.. he..” But at that moment *crack* “Your kidding!!” *boom* An explosion of energy burst from the gorilla breaking through the ice. Its power has risen more!!! Taken surprise by the situation I haven’t got the time to defend myself. The gorilla jumped and got behind me in just a second. *boom* What hit me next was something different, a skill! The gorilla punched my back but at the same time a powerful mana blast hit me and sent me flying from the other side of the river. Blood came out my mouth and even the Yggdrasil leaf was spat out. Breaking my bones as I rolled roughly in the ground until I reached a tree. By the strength of the impact that big tree fell as it stopped my body. Not wasting any effort the gorilla jumped and from up high it punched the air with its palm and a blue energy escaped. *boom* *boom* *boom* as that energy palm-shaped hit me a destructive force pushed me down as it explodes. “Guaha!” The gorilla released much palm-shaped energy before dealing a blow with both of its arms to my body. “Gaahaa!”

It was an intense pain. Blood flowed all over me and it feels like my mind is reaching its limit. My stomach hurts and I feel like vomiting another batch of blood from my mouth. Bones have been broke all over my body and moving makes it more painful. I don’t know how my body looks right now but judging from the wet feelings all over I’m guessing it is full of blood and in bad shape. The gorilla finally looked at me and finally about to deliver the final blow. “aahh… Is it okay for me to die now? My memories won’t be erased right?” But another unexpected happens. *RROOOAAARRR* A much sinister roar came from the mountains. It made me shivers more even the birds can be seen escaping filling the sky above us for a while. The gorilla stopped at that moment and went quickly to where the sound is leaving me half-dead on the ground.

“ugh.. *cough* *cough* S-shit!!” coughing some blood I moved my body even though it hurts. Opening the palm of my hands while still lying on the ground [I-inventory S-summ-on: Healing herbs] all remaining healing herbs materialize in my hand and took the pain to put all of it in my mouth. “uweehh uhrmp” it’s hard to swallow when in this state but I need to force it. Slowly chewing as I extract its juice while swallowing it forcefully. Slowly my body began to heal but as I was healing *boom* *boom* sounds of fighting came from that place where the gorilla went. I don’t know what is happening but I need to pay you back for this. Wounds began to heal slowly and a minute later I am able to stand. “Huuh, they sure are noisy.” All this time while I’m healing the area is filled with noise and tremors. I guess it’s time to go deeper.” It has been 30 minutes or so since that gorilla leaves this place, to think it can still fight with the poison effect means it’s not an ordinary one. “First [Inventory Summon Bahamut crown]” it is the last piece of my Bahamut set. I wasn’t sure if I need to wear it since having the complete Bahamut set decreases my HP more but looking at the previous fight seems like it doesn’t have an effect. The Bahamut crown was a black crown with 6 points like horn made from the Bahamut's claw. At the center was a Bahamut's eye. When all four is equipped the gear set is activated. 2 skills became available and to activate the skill I needed to use HP. “With this my health decreased 40% still I don’t feel anything strange.” For now, I’ll go check things up.

The noise has gone down a bit. It seems like it will be over soon. Following where the gorilla went is rather easy. I found traces of blood and broken trees along the way. The place it went is in the middle part of the mountain. While climbing up I saw many monsters along the way but they are all in hurry fleeing down. I guess whatever it is sure is scary. Soon as I went deeper there is a mist that keeps thicker and thicker. There are no more monsters here and the place was silent and the tracks stop here. I needed a fire. [Inventory summon torch][1 bottle gas oil]. A bottle of gas oil and a torch appeared. [book of spell III] I summoned the book of spell and look for a basic fire spell. There were still 4 fireball spells remaining so I took another one and cast it on the ground. I lit up the torch proceed. *bang* A huge sound came from my left side so I ran to check things out. The mist became thinner along the way what is weird is that it seems the mist is being sucked. *ROOOAAAR* The mist cleared up in an instant but a gruesome scene welcomed me along the way. I saw the golden gorilla standing with deep wounds and at its back, I saw a smaller version of it, a younger one. What surprises me is that on the ground lies the fuse kong monster that I knew. Black colored kong and white colored kong. They are all dead some are still in one piece but some have all there body part lying on the ground. The field is full of blood and guts but as I look at the other monster makes me break a lot of sweat. A white snake-like monster. No, I think it’s a dragon-like in those Chinese stories. There is no monster like this in the game. The long dragon-like monster doesn’t have a scale but skin with no fur. Its head is bald but its mouth is made of teeth appearing on the outside. On its lower part appeared to be a beard but if you look closely it was tentacles. The monster is at least 1300 feet or more with six feet. What’s more, its body is surrounded or producing mist all over it. The monster seems to have some wounds on its body, No, it looks more like a scratch.

I jumped up on top of the tree as soon as I saw the scene and analyze the situation. The golden gorilla seems to be protecting the younger version of it. “It might be its child.” It was filled with deep wounds and seems to can’t move on the other hand a monster that has barely scratches on its body massacred this many fuse kongs. *Roooaar* The monster began its move. The mist came out of its body and if you look closely its body opened like a small hole as it produced mist. The battlefield became harder and harder to see just like the time I went here. The Gorilla just stood there but then the shadow of the monster vanished as it was covered by mist. *Bang* *bang* bang* *slash* the gorilla is just standing there while the shadow of the monster attacks all over. It is being wounded by every attack but all it does is protect its child. *Gaah* *Gaah* The young one cried as it held to its mother. “Shit!! What am I supposed to do!!?”

The gorilla is my enemy so is that big monster. If I ran away then my problems will be solve and all I have to do is avoid this bastard. “Urghh… if I die knowing that this monster is stronger will my memories will be erased?” *Boom* The gorilla just then was smashed and sent flying a 100 feet or more away. Before it hit the mountain it shielded its child and suffered from the impact filled with blood. “Tsk… I should be happy yet this is not … urgh.. its giving me a bad taste just by watching.” What will my friends do? Lyn… what will most of you guys do? *Gaaaaahhh* The gorilla can barely stand and yet it was still protecting its child. The monster’s shadow appeared and seems like to deliver its final blow. *Gaaah* The gorilla the embraced its child more tightly and closed its eyes. “What do you mean founder? Aren’t we the Group of Legendary Fools? This game is filled with dark theme no one is having fun anymore.” “Look even the NPC’s are able to laugh” - Bitch_Please. Heh, your Game name makes me laugh just by remembering it Diarmid.

The monster was about to deliver the final blow when suddenly a tornado hit it and was blown up to the air. The gorilla was stunned by the sudden event. It looked up in the sky and was pierced by a large spear of ice. *Kraaagghh* The monster made a loud noise and mist surround the air. The mist was attacked by 2 fireballs where the giant spear hit but the attack missed. “What?!? how the heck did that monster moved mid-air!??” The gorilla heard a familiar voice and looked from the top of a tree. It was surprised as it looked at the man that he fought to the death. The man smiled as it hurried to its side. It was still confused and still held hostility even though it was just got his helped. “This spell should work” The man was holding a book and ripped a page. Soon afterward the gorilla was engulfed in green light for a second. The gorilla doesn’t understand what is going on but after a few seconds, it felt that it’s wound and strength are recovering. “Hurry and escape. You understand me? Go Shoo shoo…. Go take your child and Hide.” *Gaah* As it heard its child the gorilla snap back and understand what the man is trying to do. It then moves out as fast as it can away from the field where the man stood alone with the monster. The gorilla moved far away until it found an abandoned cave. The cave is a little bit farther than the place, it then placed its child down and caress it. *Gaaah* the child made a low sound. *Graah* *Graaah* The golden gorilla made a weird sound and soon went out of the cave. *Gaaaaahhhh* The child was left alone in the cave waiting for its mother to come back.

“Damn!” I just used a master spell tornado blade and Icicle Spear. What’s more soon as the mist covers its entire body it was able to move even when it’s up in the air. Soon the mist slowly covers the ground until it became thicker and thicker. Shadow of the monster crept around the mist. Now I know why. The monsters shadow move like it was swimming in the mist. Looking for another spell will take time and provide an opening so for now… Before putting the book of spells in my inventory I ripped a random page while keeping an eye to the monster. I glanced at the spell and it was an advance spell called [Mist field] “Shit!! Of all the spells!!” The mist became thicker and thicker and the monster just became more excited as its shadows move more quickly. Fast the shadow disappeared from my sight but my instinct told me to duck right now so I did it in a panic. *Fwooosh* *bang* The ground was hit by a sharp object in front of me creating a deep line. ‘Fuck was that the tail or the tentacles?’ *Bang* Soon as I evaded the attack from behind I was rammed by its head in an instant and gave me a ride to the woods. As I was being rammed through the trees the mist became thinner and thinner and the monster begins to slow down until I hit the final tree. The mist was gone and the monster became visible again. As I looked up I saw the monster’s body oozing with blue blood from where I hit it with my spell. *Kraaaghh* It raises its claws and aimed it down to me. [Element enchant: Fire] I swung my scimitar planning to cross my weapon to its claws redirecting its attack. The *clang* *shiing* Its claw slide through the ground and soon after *slash* I swung my blade and to my surprise, I cut it pretty easy. *Kraagh* the monster cried as the sword burn down to its skin. I made a sudden rampage around again with its tail hitting my left side.

“Looks like your weakness is fire huh.” I pointed my sword towards it as I made a smile. The monster began to change the color of its skin from pale white to indigo. Fuck! Now what! The mist produced became purple and as I looked around me some birds began to fell. Poison huh? I have immunity against this poison so it’s no trouble for me. [wind blade] *Kraaghh* the monster cried as I fired a wind blade towards it. The monster was confused but it didn’t stop it from attacking me. Its figure once again disappears. “oh no you don’t” *swoosh* I fired another wind blade before it disappears but it went passed through its shadow. “fuck it was a sure hit but nothing happens? ARGH!” it was much faster than before. I was attacked again from behind as I felt three blades went into my back. *Bam* soon after I felt like a big baseball bat hit me and sent flying but soon before I get further away *Bam* another one hit me. *bam* *bam* bam* I was like a badminton ball being tossed around all over the place. “Urgh!! [skill Bahamut’s roar] *Groaaaahhhhh*” The entire field became silent as I flew over the tree. “Gwaaahh” blood came out of my mouth soon as I activated the skill. The Skill is a power up and Area stun effect. The monsters shadow stopped in a certain place. Found you!! I launched myself towards it and swung my sword but *swoosh* the sword just went through. The hell? It was right in front of me but it just went through? The monster began shaking its head. It has recovered. I took a step back and began moving away for now but the shadow disappears again. *Bam* this time the monster appeared above me and slammed me downwards with its tail. “Shit, what should I do?”

Soon as I reached the ground the shadow of the monster began to ram its head towards me. *Rooaaaar* Before the monster reached me a familiar roar came out of nowhere. A gust of wind blew the mist away and the monster began to materialize in front of me. Soon as the mist cleared up the monster lost its balance like a bird suddenly unable to fly. It fell on the ground and not a second after the golden gorilla came up above stomping its head. *Kaaghh* The monster cried but the gorilla never stopped attacking. Just like before Blue energy escaped from its hand and explodes as it hit the monster. The gorilla never stopped its assault but the monster's tentacle began wrapping the gorilla stopping its attack. “Oh no, you don’t” I moved as fast as I can slashing the tentacle with my sword enchanted with fire. Cutting the tentacle away the monster let another cry. *Kraagghh* “attack while it’s down!!” We then continued our assault. The monster was unable to fight back and it was clearly a sure victory or so I thought.
