Chapter 3: Battle Cry

In the blacksmith shop, my heart pounded faster, realizing that this girl is conscious. Felt a quick change of temperature. The scenario over here is pretty awkward. Quickly, I apologized.

“I’m so sorry Miss Blacksmith, I thought you’re one of those NPC in the town.” I lowered my head while waiting for her reply.

“You’re correct, I am an NPC. But still, the moderators gave us consciousness and self awareness” She grabbed my hair and pulled it upwards, revealing her beauty. She was so close to my face allowing me to examine her even more! Her almond shaped blue eyes, and pinkish thin lips. She raised her brow and continued to talk. Of course after seeing a wonderful view it left me shock.

“Okay, I forgive you. Still, pervert!” Ouch! She freed my hair and turned around planning to go back.

Displaying the smoothness of her snowy white back. This girl is a perfect 7 star with that apron dress! Should be an artist or something, made me curious, I threw a question. “Before I could continue my journey, can we exchange names young blacksmith?”

“I’m Lorena, the blacksmith of Haven.” Ended her introduction and took a step. Quickly, I replied. A reason for her to stop.

"That's a nice name miss Lorena. By the way, I'm AceNomo." As I say those words, I caught a glimpse of a preposterous looking iron helmet displayed in a glass box inside the room where the door is wide open. I think it's where she came out from when she came to attend to me. The helmet had big round holes for the eyes, but it had no nose and mouth holes. So out of curiosity, I asked her, "Uhh.. Don't wanna be too curious or anything but umm.. Who owns that helmet in that glass box?" She turned to give the helmet a quick look and set her wonderful eyes back at me and gave me a murderous, yet melting stare.

"Nobody."

"Then why is it placed in the room and not with the others?"

She grunted and said.. "Ask me one more question and I'll grab that sword I just made you and stab you straight through your rib cage."

"I don't mind." I answered as I smiled at her like a cat being rubbed in the belly by its owner. She rolled her eyes and slammed the door of the room where the helmet is, then said "Please.." pointing to the way outside. I smiled and headed outside. The light of the sun showered the whole kingdom.

“Why do girls act like I’m a criminal? They’re so cold they could even live in the further North Atlantic. Is it because of my pervness?” I mumbled to myself. Even though it was still memorable, it was my first time talking to a girl even if she’s just a NPC. I stopped in front of the entrance and sighed a relief. But before I could take one more step, Lorena replied and made me gaze at her.

“You can visit my store any time you want you know” My body trembled for a bit and made me gaze at her. Seeing a young girl smiling and waving at me. This is also a first time a girl smiles at me. I replied while smiling

“Aha, sure miss Lorena! I will pay you a visit” waving back and continued to walk. Planning to go to the Wolfy plains of the kingdom where monsters are.

Managed to go outside, I ventured an entire kilometer. A man wearing a white shirt, passed and continuously ran into the kingdom’s stall stopping for no one and arrived in the Wolfy Plains near the Kingdom’s barricades in time.

Wind blows softly letting it pass through me while staring at those wolfy. Lacking the guts to charge in the group of Wolfy’s. I stretched my head from left to right until a lone wolfy appeared. It was like he abandoned his group for unknown reason. While giving the monster a killing stare, a dialog box appeared right in front of me.

Ting!

Wolfy Lv.1ATK0-25HP100%SPEED★☆☆☆☆Special Skill--

This wolfy’s pretty tough compared to me, a level one newbie. The lone wolfy found me looking at him, walking one path to my direction. Preparing for his attack, I raised my sword and the monster stopped.

“Ha! Scared little fellah?” I stood up straight teasing the wolfy waiting for his charge. Suddenly a red shaded outline covered his body and charged. I prepared a battle stance where I lowered my knees and gave my sword a tight grip. Waited patiently for the right time to attack.

The wolfy is now 3 meters away from me. Focusing on his eyes refraining from blinking, I felt my sword. It glowed red and jumped in. Waiting for the attack, I dodged it by dashing left, Leaving the wolfy to be confused. Taking the chance, I stabbed him right at the back and his HP decreased to 31% which turned red. Then it viciously growled at me showing its sharp white fangs.

But this won’t intimidate me. So I took a step and tried to slash the wolfy with rage, but it managed to dodge my attack and jumped back that made me to shift my stare to the monster. The time I was able to see him it’s already too late. His blade sharp nails are already an inch before landing on my face, he managed to follow it up with a claw attack. All I can do now is to close my eyes and suffer the pain.

After a sec, I opened my eyes and checked my HP. It decreased by 12%, weird. It didn’t dealt pain through my face. My adrenaline made me feel nothing, so i

Took a tight grip and prepared a strike. “My turn little fellah!” so I gave the wolfy a quick slash through his neck, Shing! The wolfy cried in pain as blood spilled from his wounds, leaving him suffer the agony and dropped dead. A dialog box opened right after wolfy died.

Not bad.

Stood up straight and found another lone Wolfy behind. The wolfy, sited on the bushy green grass of the plain, gave me a sympathetic stare. “What? Too brutal? Wait till I cut your head off!” But then the wolfy ran towards a nearby hill.

Of course I chased after it with rage. Then it stopped on the top of the hill. “There’s nowhere to go now boy!” I taunted as I catch my breath. But the wolfy paid no attention to what I have said. Instead, it took a really deep breath and howled

“AWOOOOO…..” It echoed all throughout the plain. Then seconds later, a series of howls followed as response to this wolfy which I thought was a lone wolfy. Moments later, I heard four legged footsteps from the other side of the hill. The scenario over here made me gulp once. Oh crap! This wolfy called on its whole pack!!

My body trembled as the wolf-pack slowly walks in. Hands shaking, while eyes spying like a night shift security guard. Recklessly, I charged in with my sword. Slashed my sword right to left, wolfy after wolfy. Dialog boxes didn’t stop from popping, and I didn’t give a look.

At the middle of my berserk, I realized that my HP dropped to down 4%. If I will continue and be like this for the whole 1 minute, I’ll be dead for sure. Looking for a way out, a small space between the pack of wolfy is wide open. Taking the chance, I quickly jumped out. Rolled over the grassy ground and ran as fast as I can. Lacking the guts to look back, I continued to peer forward.

After running from a far, it took me 4 minutes until I managed to get down the hill. I sat down letting my body rest for a while. What a long run. The wolfy pack returned to their stable and peaceful life, ignoring the newbie me who tormented them. No worries all of them are just compressed data.

Shadow from above covered the sunny skies. A large cotton shaped cloud rolled excuses to pass by. Sitting without disturbance, the large cloud threw a large bead of raindrop. It landed right in front of me, splashes and a Magi came out.

My body won’t stop shaking once I saw the magi. He was 3 meters tall, companying with a floating golden sword and while wearing a giant golden shield. Life bars showed one after another, a total of 3 life bars. Examined the Magi but the dialog box does not show. He released a deep roar that made my body shake even more. My Heart pounded faster with a tight grip on my sword. Giving the magi a coward stare.

In a distance, a sudden Tik! Tak! Sound was clearly heard. They we’re footsteps of grouped men charging. The magi was distracted, again I took the chance and ran but not that far, waiting for the group of men to arrive.

“There He is! Go charge!” a yell from the leader.

Quickly, I ran to a nearby tree and hid myself. Pushing my back against the trunk while spying, waiting for the Magi’s HP to decrease. Also took the advantage to learn, this group of men know how to fight.

From a far, all I can see are some stickman figures carrying axe attacking the Magi in harmony. Too late for me to realize that this Magi is a Boss level monster. A good reason for me to wait right here and let myself heal. Opened my backpack and saw 56 Bronze. My experience bar also rose up to 56%. Now that’s what you call a berserk farming!
