《The Rise Of A Porter》First Mission (3)

"What the hell is wrong with you!" Arnold yelled at EL pushing him off himself.
"The hell you mean, what's wrong with me? What's wrong with you! I just saved you from a Direwolf damnit." EL snapped back at him, brushing the dust off his armour.
"So you did it to... save me? But who opened the door then?"
"How the f*ck am I suppose to know that. I thought you did it."
"If you didn't do it then who did it?"
Before they could talk more about what had happened, they heard someone's footsteps. They simultaneously looked at the far end.
"You got to be kidding me!"

MEANWHILE OUTSIDE THE BOSS ROOM
"I told those idiots to stand by, is it too much to ask!" Ricardo and the rest of the team just reached near the gate. All they could see was that the golem Arnold had summoned, was fighting against three direwolves at once. These were the wolves having grey fur and were tough to deal with. Lifeless body of one wolf was near the Golem's feet while the three remaining wolves were ferociously attacking the Golem. Seeing no other way around them, the team members charged at the wolves. The wolves were outnumbered and soon succumbed to the innumerable wounds. But the members weren't thinking about the wolves anymore, they were worried about the two idiots who were inside the boss room right now.
They had all the right reasons to be worried as well because the direwolves were rank B creatures, meaning the boss of the dungeon would at least be a rank A monster. Most of them were worried about EL because even if he was strong, he was still a B+ ranked warrior. They had almost no hope that Arnold would be able to survive.

Seeing this situation Ricardo ordered two of the fastest runners to go and inform the guild manager about the problem inside the dungeon as he doubted that the cameras were functioning anymore, because if they were the guild should have already sent the reinforcements.
"The gates aren't opening!" the mages felt helpless.
"Let's hope they are okay inside the room." At this point Ricardo could only hope and trust their strength.

INSIDE THE BOSS ROOM
"Do something!" EL shouted at Arnold, while dodging yet another blow from the monster's scythe.
"The hell you think I'm trying to do!" Arnold was frantically using his ice abilities at the monster.
When he had used the [PROBE] skill on the 7 feet tall, black skinned, humanoid creature. the result was something like this.

In short, fighting the [UNDEAD REAPER] head on was like chasing after death itself. But they didn't had a choice in the matter, they were locked inside the room and the only way to open the door was to somehow defeat the [UNDEAD REAPER], a task they were failing miserably. But the rewards for defeating the monster were very rich too.

"I need time to activate and use my abilities. I CAN'T DO IT WHEN THIS UGLY IDIOT IS CHASING MY A$$!" EL shouted at the top of his lungs. "I need someone to tank for me!"
"Just hold on for sometime!" Arnold already had a plan ready, he was waiting for the cooldown of his abilities to end so he could act on it. Just then the cooldown of his ability, [ELEMENTAL SUMMONING : FROST GOLEM] finished. He immediately summoned three Frost golems as he couldn't summon 4 as long as the previous all the previously summoned golems died, but that wasn't enough to tackle down the reaper, he had learnt his lesson after attacking the reaper using normal golems.
He touched the golems one after another, using his [ENHANCEMENT] ability to enhance their power.

The results of enhancement were better than Arnold had expected. But he had no time to celebrate. He immediately ordered the golems to attack and distract the reaper.
•Current Mana : 810/1470•
"The golems will distract the reaper for a while. Use whatever ability and skill you want to!"
"Got it!" EL replied sheathing his sword.

[ PROGRESS ] : 580/2250 damage dealt.

Suddenly the progress bar for the mission started increasing incredibly fast! He looked back at the towards where the reaper was. The golems were attacking the reaper in sync, they were planning and attacking on their own without a single order from Arnold. The B ranked golem was leading the strike on the reaper.
"We can do this!" Arnold could feel the adrenaline rushing through his veins.

Golden Age
In the latter half of the 21st century fully immersive virtual reality has finally become mainstream; a brand new game company called Aurum Productions promises to bring about the most realistic fantasy MMORPG ever created with their flagship title, Golden Age. A new player who goes by the name, D0n, loads into the world of virtual reality for the first time in his life thanks to these promises. But what catches his attention isn’t the wild monsters, the in-depth quest lines, or the ability to perform superhuman feats — what draws D0n at first is a bit more… mundane. Sure he’ll put in the time to level up his character… just as soon as he can finish applying the last layer of paint on his new coffee table… and after he lands that triple backflip he’s been trying to do all day… not to mention the lady next door was talking about a new horned rabbit stew recipe she was working on… Sure a world of swords and magic in virtual reality means a whole slew of fantastical experiences you can’t get anywhere else, but it’s not like those are going anywhere. And virtual or not, D0n is determined to live out his reality with a pace and vision that suits him best. It’s just a shame that his habit of a personalized play style has some far reaching consequences even Golden Age’s dev team could have never predicted. New Chapters uploaded every Wednesday.

Naruto Retsuden: Toru
[SI/OC Third Shinobi War]Well fought and well done. All of us fight as one. It took me three years to be able to properly read the faded out kanji of the flimsy poster that I keep in my back pocket. The illustration is colourful, bright reds and yellows. Colours that would definitely catch the attention of a child. The poster was carefully placed along the walls and fences of my village, level with the height of a four year old. I thought enlisting to become a Shinobi was a heroic deed, something I needed to do to save my family from poverty and to serve my country at the cusp of war. Then I graduated early to be deployed to the front lines.I am sadly and sorely mistaken. Warnings:Slow-burnNO OP-NESSRomance? What romance? It'll take at least 40 chapters or more before anything romantic happens.Realistic depictions of War from a child's perspectiveBlood and goreChild SoldiersPTSDRealistic character developmentTragedy. A lot of tragedy. Critiques much appreciated!
