[VRMMO] Dead One

(For crying out loud. What is going on recently?) – though O'a.

(A necromancer bandit. A necromancer rouge mage. A necromancer cultists.)

(Why I'm keep running into necromancer nonstop?)

(Is there some sort of necromancer season or something?)

(There is also that boss of "Sand Pirates" somewhere on the lose as well that is also a necromancer.)

(And now here I'm, fighting another necromancer.)

(Well, fighting necromancer did gave me bit of experience when it comes to dealing with them and all.)

(For example. I know those burning skulls that were just flying above me.)

(That one cultist necromancer was using it.)

(What was it called? Fire necromancy? Or maybe furnace necromancy? I don't know.)

(Either way, he did had some close range attacks. Probably this guy also has those a close range attacks. They were bit annoying.)

(What should I do?)

(Behind me are the undead murder scorpion kings and queens. Kings have a high attack power while queen possess deadly poison.)

(In front of me is a group of the skeleton servants that appear to be specializes in defense, but are not really that fast.)

(Should I just ignore all of his undeads and head straight towards the necromancer?)

(Hm… But he probably has those annoying close range attacks.) – though O'a.

(Damn! What should I do?!) – though ClownFrog.

(This guy is a real deal.)

(Skeleton servants are getting cut down left and right, without him using any skills or whatsoever.)

(I wanted to use them to test out some of his abilities and maybe have him use the skill, but so far he only used that weird range skill that made each one of his slashes become projectiles that ended up taking down all of the burning heads I summoned.)

(This guy not only has a lot of agility and reaction time, but he can also hit like a freaking truck!)

(There is no point in summoning lesser skeleton servants, since he can just kill them with only one swing.)

(The other skeleton servants are able to take 2 hits while the high can take 3-4.)

(However if he does a wide attack with those swords of his, he can take multiple skeletons down at the same time and considering how fast he can swing, he can take down a lot of them in just a moment, no matter if they are lesser or high.)

(Honestly, I don't think he is going all out yet and that pisses me off.)

(But I also noticed that something was off.)

(Why he isn't charging straight at me?)

(With his speed, he should have a good chance of getting to me.)

(Is he playing safe or is he wary of me?)

(Honestly, the plan was for him to attack me and imminently when that happens, I would pop up both defense and healing skills.)

(I would be able to hit him and deal some damage with burning necromancy skills. But why the heck he is going after me?!)

(Is he by any chance trying to wore me down by getting rid of all my undeads, so I would end up becoming easy target?)

(Or is he just looking down on me?)

"…"

The both man stared at each other, waiting for the other one to make the first move.

Moments later, both of the man made their move at the exact same moment.

"[Blade Aura: Wave]!"

"[Haut Barrage]!"

The man released a giant and wide slash projectile towards ClownFrog while ClownFrog fired a random hitting barrage of hits towards the man.

The man slash attack cut through all ClownFrog undead like they were nothing and even completely destroyed the random barrage attack that ClownFrog made as if they were nothing.

"?!"

"[Burning Ribcage: Sphere]!"

Before the slash projectile reached ClownFrog, a sphere made out of the fire and bones suddenly surrounded the ClownFrog.

[Burning Ribcage – Upgrade – Sphere]

[Increase the barrier endurance.]

[When [Sphere] command is used, a burning ribcage will become a sphere around the caster.]

[If used, the barrier will have increased deference and will block everything inside the sphere, but it will remove the healing effect and the barrier time will be decreased. Also increases the skill cooldown and cost when used.]

The giant spere made out of the bones and fire took on the on the giant slash.

At first slash stopped, but seconds later the entire sphere was completely destroyed alongside the giant slash projectile.

"?!"

"Oh? You managed to block that?"

"!"

ClownFrog looked up and saw the O'a right above him who was ready to strike.

"!"

"[Burned Hand]!"

ClownFrog summoned the burned hand and launched the attack straight at the man, but the swordman slashed the giant hand with his two swords and completely destroying it in the instant, before then coming down directly at the ClownFrog.

"!"

Before ClownFrog could fire another spell at the swordman, the man sword was already right next to the ClownFrog.

However, as soon as the blade touched his neck, a sudden explosion occurred that pushed the man away instantly.

"?"

After getting pushed back, the man was suddenly ended up being attacked by the ClownFrog undead scorpions.

(FUCK ME! THAT WAS WAY TOO FUKING CLOSE!)

([Burned Flesh] saved me!)

(It's a defensive skill that when activated it will trigger an explosion when I'm attacked. It's only useful against close range attacks and it can only last few seconds after the activation.)

(If I didn't activated it right before using the [Burned Hand], I would have definitely get decapitated just now.)

(But now what?! This skill cooldown isn't short or anything, so the next time he comes at me, I will get fucked!)

(However, what was that thing before?! He suddenly killed all my skeleton servant with just one slash and even obliviated my barrier along with it.)

(Okay. I got to give it to him. There is a fuking reason why he is called "Legendary Mercenary"!)

[Murder Scorpion Queen – Burning Zombie was slain.]

"?!"

(Oh fuck me! He is already killing scorpions?!)

"[Undead Record]!"

[Skeleton Mage]

[Burning Skeleton Mage]

[Burning Necromancer] skill: [Create: Burning Skeleton Mage]

"Attack him!"

ClownFrog and the undead mages began firing their attacks at the swordman while he was still fighting against undead scorpions.

The man tried dodging the incoming range attacks, but he suddenly got attacked by 2 undead scorpions at the same time, forcing him to block, but be unable to do anything about the range attacks in time.

In the end, the man ended up getting by the multiple projectiles.

"…"

"[Blade Dance: Spin]!"

The man suddenly spined his two blades around, creating a barer of slashes that blocked both of the long range attacks and scorpions attacks for 2 seconds.

After the barrier disappeared, the man launched him self at the nearest undead scorpion before launching a series of attacks that ended up killing the scorpion.

ClownFrog and undead mages began launching their attacks again at the swordman, but the man instantly ran towards the second scorpion and making the range attacks miss him.

After getting near the second scorpion, the man once again unleashes a furies of blows that quickly got rid of the undead, before then running towards the third scorpion right before getting hit by the long range attacks.

However, while running to the third scorpion, the swordman sudden got somehow attacked.

"?!"

(Tch. Homing?!) – though O'a

After getting hit by the homing [Necro Shots], the man got distracted for just a second, but in the instant, he did not noticed the incoming attack coming from underneath.

"?!"

The man quickly looked down after feeling the ground moving on its own and saw a murder scorpion king that was buried under the sand that waited for the right time to strike.

The undead monster launched both of its pincers at the swordman, but both of them were blocked by the man sword, however right after doing that, the man ended up getting hit right in the back again by the undead mages attack.

"Tch!"

The giant scorpion tried attacking the man with its tail, but suddenly the man destroyed both of the scorpions pincers with his sword before then completely destroying the monster tail in an instance.

After getting rid of the scorpions weapons, the man quickly dealt a finish attack that finished off the creature, before then turning around and swinging his blades wildly, blocking and countering the incoming range attacks.

(Good! He is finally taking some damage.)

(He maybe fast, but he can't do too many things at the same time.)

(This guy posses a lot of strength if he is able to easily overpower the undead scorpions kings and he also has his agility, reaction time and powerful skills.)

(However, his endurance and HP don't seem to be that high. Well, he is using his swords to counter attack and block, but he cannot do that while attacking.)

(As long as I make him being attacked by too many enemies at the same time, he won't be able to block all of the attacks.)

(But he already manage to take down most of the scorpions.)

(It's time to bring out new undeads.)

"[Undead Record]!"

[Burning Bone Construct] x3

[Burning Flesh Construct] x3

[Rank: Burning Undead]

[Rank: High Burning Undead]

[The strongest version of the undead evolution: fire evolution skills.]

[Provide even stronger mutation that can influence even more skills and increases target stats by 45% at skill level 10.]

[Increase the cost of the undead by 75%]

(I know that brining my strongest undead right now maybe stupid, but I don't have a choice!)

"Go!"

"!"

"Tch. He summon more undead." – said O'a.

The man quickly began running again towards the undead scorpions before then launching another assault at them and quickly finishing off the remaining undead scorpion monsters.

After dealing with the undead scorpions, the man turned back towards the ClownFrog and saw his undead construct heading straight towards him.

"[Blade Aura: Darts]!"

The man began swinging his swords over and over again, sending a series of long range attacks at the construct.

The attacks continue to hit construct over and over again, but before long, the man stopped his attacks and all of the construct were surprisingly alive.

"?!"

(They are alive?! I though one or two would have died from that!) – though ClownFrog.

(WAIT!)

(I see. So, this skill allows you to fire range attacks non stop for short time, but they are not that strong.)

The undead constructs began launching their attacks at the swordman, but the man easily blocked, dodged and parried the construct attack.

However, the man not only had to worried about the attacks, but the barrage of the attacks from the skeleton mages and ClownFrog that never had stopped coming at him.

The continue getting overwhelmed by the barrage of the attacks to the point he would keep getting hit by the mages attacks, before then getting directly hit by one of the construct fits right in the stomach.

"!"

"Okay! Fuck you!" – said O'a.

"[Twin Sword Slash]!"

The man slashed one of the bone construct with his swords that were enchanted with the skill.

Afterwords, the two undead construct that were on his left and right side tried attacking him, but the man parried both of the attacks with his swords and pushing away construct fists away.

"[Sword Spin]!'

The man swinged both of his sword around, hitting all of the undead construct near him and even finishing off one of the bone construct.

"[Flying Sword Slash]!"

"?!"

As soon as the man dealt with one of the bone construct, he regained his sight over the ClownFrog and his undead mages that were blocked by the undead construct and immediately after this happened, the man activated his skill before swinging his sword and sending a slash projectile at the ClownFrog.

"!"

ClownFrog instantly moved out of the way thanks to his agility stat, but about 3 skeleton mages that couldn't dodge ended up getting slashed into two and instantly killed.

However, the man aim wasn't to get rid of the ClownFrog or the mages, but to stop their barrage of the attacks just for the moment.

Why?

"[Heavy Sword Slash]!"

[High Burning Flesh Construct was slain.]

"?!"

It was to get rid of the ClownFrog undead construct.

"[Piercing Sword]!"

[Burning Bone Construct was slain.]

(FUCKER!)

"[Bone Arrow Barrage]!"

ClownFrog launched multiple bone projectiles at the man, but the O'a instantly noticed the incoming attacks and slashed each one of them, destroying them completely.

(That bitch! He already took down half of the undead construct in just few minutes after they joined the fight.)

(No.)

(This isn't the worst news.)

(This guy is finally seeing as a real enemy.)

(And by look of things, he will start fighting seriously now!)

"I guess the real fights starts now, huh?"
