《The Games That Bind Us》Chapter 63 - Fifth Chakra
Advertisement
I finished reading in the Library and found that it was pointless as the 3 Fists Academy had more. I just picked up Isabel and took her to the teleporter. where did I set it to teleport me to again? oh, judging my Isabel's scared face and her holding onto me as tightly as possible I think I put it very high, I wait until the last second to catch us and prevent any damage, I laugh at Isabel's face, priceless. I use Blink Step to take her to the room which has gotten an expansion, and yep I will just ignore it for now since everyone is charging at me and they are way to exited, there levels also have increased a lot so I am not risking that one. moving on I go to the guild and Nina was the first to catch up to me in full battle gear, I look at the quests and now there are dungeon quests. looks fun so ... "Eily, stop whacking me with your hammer, it is distracting" I said as I blocked each and every hit with a Chakra Orb. "I am getting a dungeon quest for us all to do later after I unlock my fifth gate, tell the others to get ready for it" I said making her get exited before running off, Nina ran off faster though. so I am finally getting a moment of peace, I pulled out a book and absorbed it.
[Throat Chakra: The ability to communicate in all languages and Chakra can now flow much easier]
[Chakra Breath: You can now go without breathing for as long as your Chakra lasts. this ability consumes a lot of Chakra and you will be unable to sustain it for long]
interesting. I feel more powerful again, I look around and I cant sense Kieran, I wonder where he is. I hand the quest in to Conner who is standing around looking board. "Conner, what is wrong?" I asked and he just sighed.
"Kieran went off to a dungeon and hasn't returned, I think it just has a lot of floors to it but he hasn't been back in a few days. my job is getting boring with little to do" Conner said with a heavy sigh. what? Kieran has been gone for 3 days? what kind of dungeon did he venture off into? the seventh layer of hell to fight the devil himself? damn,
"well I will be taking this quest. have fun tracking down what kept Kieran that interested in something" I said as I walked off. I quickly tested all 5 orbs while nobody was looking at they don't look any different but they feel much stronger. I then sent them back into the ground and went to the room where it looked like they were preparing for a war. "Is everything ok?" I asked and they looked at me confused.
"Oh yea, we are just getting ready, you most likely have everything you need in your inventory" Kate said with a smile before continuing to pack her survival kit.
"How long do you think we will be there, I could most likely do it by my self in under a day, what is with this preparation" I asked and they looked at me with sceptical eyes.

"Master, even Kieran struggled with the dungeons by himself." Eron said to me and I shut up and started to help them pack. Kieran? do they have anti mage monsters down there? I wonder just how powerful these dungeons are? "Don't worry master, Michael only nearly died when he tried one with Lin" Eron added really making me doubt my sanity for picking a dungeon that said hard difficulty. maybe it will be good training for team work?
"What dungeon are we going into?" Lilian asked and I handed her the poster. "Quick Sand Caverns?" Lilian looked at it confused and I nodded. "Kate, we will need extra water" Lilian said before continuing to pack, I then had to ask the question.
"What dungeon did Kieran get lost in?" I said curiously and Nina stopped for a moment next to me.
"he went to the dungeon called Crystal Falls" Nina said quickly while hugging me and moving on, I just continued packing.
"Why do we need all of this again, anything we need to survive I can create and I can create potions as well" I said and they looked at me with a 'Why didn't you say so sooner?' expression and then sighing. "I can also cast a wide range of healing magic" I said and they smiled and hugged me.
"I knew you were useful" Eily said while getting hit on the head from Kate. "Sorry, I mean you are amazing, you are saving us an hours worth of packing time" Eily said with a smile. It takes an hour? I feel sorry for people without my abilities.
"So do you want to head off now or later?" I asked causing a unanimous vote.
"Now" Said Eron, Kate, Nina, Lilian, Eily and Isabel... that list is getting long. I just agree and we exit the building, I have been working on a better mode of transportation. I have made the Advanced Paper Planer. now if you stand on it, you have your own gravity to be stuck to it, so falling off is impossible. I put my Paper Mask on and we begin our flight, and before anyone could say anything we had ended our flight. the Paper Plane takes my Dexterity and multiplies it by 100 to get its speed. my stats have not changed since I last mentioned them. so you may work that one out.
"John, what was that?" Isabel said confused. oh yea I should probably have left the level 1 at home. "John you are amazing, that was super fast" Isabel said with a joyful expression and stars in her eyes. Ignoring her I moved on. I saw a faint Blue mist ahead of me.
[Now Entering: Quick Sand Caverns]
[Difficulty: Easy]
[Advised Level: 10,000]
[Floors: 1]
ok, that looks simple, "Looks like this is supposed to be an easy dungeon, there is also only 1 floor" I said and everyone sighed with relief. "Maybe I should go back for a harder one?" I thought aloud making Eily whack me with her hammer.
"NO!!!" Eily shouted while whacking me a few more times, I ignored them and just moved on.

[Blue Mist Sand Worm]
[Level 3]
[Pack leader]
yep I will let them handle this, there is a few million sand worms in front of us. they do no damage, they are however slimy and sticky, I put one on Kate who jumps and burns it instantly, "Arg, Don't do that" Kate said with a pouting face and wiping off the slime. I have an idea. I summon a Chakra Ball and set it to explode in the centre of the worm pile. not to do any damage just explode. I then Blink Step into the next area waiting for them to catch up. I clean them up with water and by the time they get to me they look good as new but angry.
"Master, that experience was sticky, slimy and we were surrounded by worms, can we do it again?" Eron said with a smile while making everyone else look at her funny,
"No time now, the first actual enemy" I said while pointing down at a few giant sand worms the size of an arm yet the length of a snake.
[Blue Mist Giant Sand Worm]
[Level 800]
[Pack Worker]
oh well, Kate did not move and nobody else looked willing to fight such a slimy disgusting foe. strange, I thought I desensitised them with the bath in the smaller worms, oh well. I just walked over to one and tore it apart with Psychokinesis I killed a few like this before Kate asked me.
"How can you kill them without touching them?" Kate asked and since she had the Bata version of my ability I sent her the blue box over. she then gave me a 'That's Cheating' look. speaking of the gamer ability, I gave it to Isabel who is gaining a lot of levels from this, my levels and experience gain slowed down a lot, I just have to kill a lot more then.
"With the power of the king I command you, Kill Yourselves" Isabel said trying to help as the worms started to kill them self. damn that ability is dangerous. her Willpower stat is 930 so maybe that is it? mine is almost giving me another ability however I just need a little more willpower. How you get that is beyond me.
"Master Help!" Hate said while one of the worms started wrapping around her, I used empathy and found that it is to disgusting to move with a giant slimy sand worm wrapped around you. the Blue Mist makes the animals in it rely on primal instinct, that includes reproduction, I waited a but before she got out of it herself. it is weak so if she cant get past that it will be her downfall later on in the dungeon.
[Blue Mist Worm King]
[Level 10,000]
[The Big Worm]
"Isabel, that is all yours" I said while handing her a wooden sword. she looked at me shocked. I checked ad that thing can't do damage, it can only make more wore worms, which I will take care of, but she has to get used to killing things with combat so it will make good experience for her.
(35 Minuets Later)
"John, that was cruel, everything feels sticky" Isabel said with an upset smile. I pointed at her level and stats. she smiled no longer concerned with the 'stickiness'. I looked back and saw the monster respawned. I should have known, I killed it a few times, I got to level 710. I put all my stat points in Chakra. I then felt a surge of power, it was unreal. I felt near invincible.
[Chakra has reached 200, Chakra Orb has Evolved]
[Advanced Chakra Orb: You can now sense things through your Chakra Orbs and your Chakra Orbs are now much stronger]
[Chakra has reached 300, Chakra Orb has Evolved]
[Greater Chakra Orb: Your Chakra Orbs can now do anything you make them do provided you can supply enough Chakra and manually control the entire process]
Chakra is now at 321 and I feel incredible, but next to the 321 there is a number that says otherwise, I wonder if that is how effective the Chakra is with how many gates I have unlocked or something as it is much higher? oh well, I look around and see nobody wanted to stay in that dungeon much longer so it is only me and Eron, I grab onto Eron and use Blink Step to catch the others who are running back, I then catch them on a paper plane and fly the rest of the way back.
"John, please say we don't have to do that again" Isabel pleaded while hugging me, I patted her head.
"Looks like if I ever go back there it will only be me and Eron" I said and Eron nodded. everyone else sighed.
"Also, if you ever try to cover us in slime like that make it your own..." Kate said, I had to wonder if it was a freudian slip but whatever. I shall ignore it this time since Kate was red in the face and running away at the realisation of what she said.
"Ok then, ignoring what Kate wants me to do at night, go do your own thing and I will hand your part of the quest reward later" I said while Blink Stepping over to the Guild Hall, I then handed in the quest and got a bag of cash just for saying the dungeon is easy and all the information about the monsters.
I handed out everyone's payment and pulled out another book.
[The Third Eye Chakra Gate can not be opened at this time, you are not ready for its power]
interesting. I will look forward to that one. In the mean time I walked over to get some rest I will be going through some dungeons later...
Kieran's Point Of View
"*Pant* I never *Pant* thought there would *Pant* be a monster that strong.... just what is that thing?" I said just before I lost consciousness...

ARMOR
I was created as the ultimate dungeon trap: a living suit of armor that devours any adventurer who dons me. My master created me for his entertainment, leading adventurers to ruin and betraying them at the last moment. This time will be no different. Or so I thought. Now I'm living the life of an adventurer. Hopefully, my companions won't realize I'm not who, or what, they think I am. *Now updating Tuesdays and Thursdays Additional tags I couldn't include: Romantic subplot This story is meant to be a book rather than a serial, there will eventually be an ending. It is also my first book length work so while I intend to do my best, mistakes and issues will occur.

He enjoyed the city's splendor from the balcony of the palace. It was dazzling, worthy of the Gods' envy- if they even exist. He felt something soft and warm embrace him from behind. Arms wrapped around his belly. "What are you thinking about?" she asked while sniffing his back. "Would you believe me if I said that I was thinking about you?" he turned around and feasted his eyes upon her pretty face. "I wouldn't" she shook her head and grinned. "Why?""Because I've fallen for your sweet words many times before and I will not fall into your trap again" He whispered to her ears, "What if I say that I'll give you the world?""Cliché" she smirked"What if I say, that I'll give my life for you?""Too tragic" she laughed"What if I say that" he rubbed his nose against hers "I will love you with all my heart"She smiled "Then I'll have no choice but to fall for your sweet words again"*****************Hello readers.
