CHAPTER 9 - DREAMS AND GOAL

Logging out after spending more than 24 hours within the game, Shin felt stiffness with his body. He notice that some of his friends had already logged out a most likely doing warm up stretching.

Shin though headed straight to the kitchen to prepare food but as he came into the kitchen, Celena was already there.

Shin: I guess were having chinese food today huh (grinning)

Celena: Ah Shin, I thought you will not log out yet, I thought I would cook for once since your unavailable.

Shin: That would be great. Everyone here knows how good a cook you are. This is great. Are the masters all here?

Celena: No, Master Asuna is still with with Mr. CEO.

Shin: Pity, she would miss your cooking.

Celena: (blush) I'm not that good you know. I just copied that cook in the restaurant and I learned how but I'm not confident.

Shin: You should be. Everyone of us will vouch for you.

Celena: You.. don't say embarassing things, I might fall for you, you know~

???: Oooh, a pink atmosphere is in air huh.

Celena: Cray! You don't want food do you!?

Cray: Oh hey hey, I'm just kidding kay? Sheesh! I've just finished practice and you won't believe how many cracks and creeks you can hear while I'm at it heheheh.

Celena: This will take more time Shin, go move your body or do stretching as well, I know how stiff the body is after sleeping for 24 hours and waking up.

Shin: Okay, but don't start without me yeah!?

After some time, the food was prepared and at the same time, everyone had woken up, done practice and stretching and gathered for food. Master Asuna had returned as well from work and was already eating with them. Everyone has stories to tell and the masters were quietly listening to their students.

Shin: Masters, two of you can go in the game as well. You should really try it, in there, you will find something that even you cannot beat.

Hao: Hohoh! Really? I want to have a go with that. Shin, did you meet something there that you cannot beat?

Crest: Yeah Shin, tell us what happened with you in there.

Shin: What are you talking about, everyone of you had already have a class change as far as I've heard. And each seems to be unique too.. legendary classes right?

Cray: You got us, but we still don't know about yours right everyone? See they all want to know.

Shin: It's not that great but first, I may need your help at that creature that I'm unable to beat.

Ryu: Brother Shin, your really serious when you said there is something you cannot beat?

Shin: Hey! I cannot beat our masters okay?

Ash: That's not the point, what kind of creature are you unable to beat and what level are you huh???

Shin: Okay, well I'm level 45. We're almost at the same level anyway. But the creature I met is level 700.

Seth: Seriously!? That's way overleveled. No wonder you cannot beat it.

Ash: Right... that's some serious threat.

Garr: If it's that strong, I want to have a go with it.

Shin: Nah, even if everyone of us meet right now and go, we'll still be no match, and we would've last just a few minutes on it anyway.

Ash: So is it a God level or Legendary?

Shin: Legendary. It's name is.. Yamata no Orochi.

Kenshin: What did you say!?

Shin: Eh? Master, are you interested?

Kenshin: You can say that. You know I'm into old literature and Yamato no Orochi is one of my favorites. What does it look like?

Shin: I'm not sure how many heads it have, but definitely not a snake as mentioned in the history. I guess the system or the creator does not belive Orochi is just a snake.. it's a huge ass dragon.

Kenshin: Hao, Tang, I will go into the game tonight, Asuna should be tired and rest. One of you have to go. I promise I will be the guard tomorrow, but I wish to meet this Yamato no Orochi of the legends.

Cray: Master, I think even you won't last long against this dragon.

Kenshin: I know young one. That's why I will become strong, just like you. I will catch up and don't you dare leave me out when you're confronting it.

Shin: The monk who's guarding the shrine had given me a time frame. 6 months in game time but I have to come back earlier as I need to look for the sword Kusanagi.

Crest: That's less than 25 days in real time. Master!

Kenshin: Hao, Tang, Asuna!

Asuna: No need to worry, Kenshin. We know this is important to you. When was the last time we saw that fire lit up in your eyes hmmm?

Hao: Bwahahah, she's right, it's something that will make your blood boil, you do have to prepare for it.

Tang: What are you two talking about, we're included as well.

Hao & Asuna: Eh? Why?

Tang: Aren't you curious at how the children had told their stories? The undead, Vampires, Giants, Angels, Devils. They all exist within the game. Don't you have something you want to face with all your might? For me, I wanted to challenge a different an army using this hand of mine and the skills I garenered throughout my life.

Asuan: You're right. I want to see this Assassins and ninjas if they are worth their names.

Hao: Bwahaha! I want to fight giants and a God or two.. Bwahahaha~

Shin: Geez, the masters are all in their worlds now.

Celena: They're just like us. Their boredom is too much and this is a chance to release their pent up rage within themselves.

Jin: Yeah, and I want to see how the masters will do in that world as well. But I won't just bow down, I will fight master withinn the game someday.

Garr: We all do, in there, we may need a whole continent to fight on our hearts content.

Shin: Don't worry guys. Once I become strong enough, I can create a dimension for us to have a good spar hehehe.

Cray: Heyyy, I almost forgot, we still don't know your class. Spill!

Arielle: Yes, brother. You know about ours, what about yours?

Shin: Eh? I didn't tell yet? hahah... you won't expect my class anyway, it's not a fighter class.

Crest: What?? Are you serious, why did you choose that way.

Shin: Beats me, it just came to me, so I accepted it. At first, I have hesitation but now, I think it's a cool class.

Ash: What is it then?

Shin: A summoner.
