Chapter 2: Treasure's and Trouble

I stood there with 4 hp remaining as the Orc King charged up his next attack. I knew I no longer had a weapon and no time to heal myself so I decided to run. He swung his axe at me barely missing as I began running looking for any other way out. I didn't see anywhere else to go so I decided to look behind his throne, maybe I could use that for cover. It was so far away but my only chance at living, so I ran. I ran as fast as I could swerve and zigzagged to dodge his incoming attacks. Once I made it to the throne I went behind it, looking for any other way out and after examining the back of it I saw a long gold staircase going downwards which was built into the throne. I quickly went in and hoped that he wouldn't be able to fit in it. The Orc caught up and swung his axe at the hole as he tried to claw his way in. I quickly ran down further until I stopped hearing the loud roars of the Orc King. I heard the bangs of loud footsteps above my head as he went back to his throne after not being able to reach me. I noticed the staircase went down quite far but I couldn't guess what it led to, maybe another boss, the exit to this boss or it could just be a trap, but I knew I had no other choice because if I went back up there I was dead. So as I walked down the steps I used another healing potion bringing my hp up to 54/61 and after about a minute of walking down the steps I arrived at the bottom. It was a small room with a large golden chest in the middle and at the other end of the room it was a hallway. I was hesitant when approaching the chest unsure if it was going to be a trap or not but against my better judgement I decided to open it. After opening the chest it revealed a beautiful dagger with a complex design built into the handle and a ring lying next to it. I touched the dagger with two fingers revealing its stats, It was named "Claw of Cerberus'' (1/3). In New Dawn the weapons are rated in the order of Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Ultimate and Divine. Divine items are the rarest items in the game and they are beyond extremely rare. This must have been the first Divine weapon that was found. I was completely speechless, I look at its stats:

[Claw of Cerberus]

"A blade wielded by the god of Death Hades it is said to leave a trial of souls in its wake"

I then tapped on the ring to view its stats, it was named "Ring of the exile'' (2/3):

(Ring, Rank: Divine)

(Exiles will)Active: Each strike has a chance to cause a heavy bleed effect that decreases HP(-10%) over time, AGI(-20%).

I was so excited to test the items out I almost didn't notice the final thing. Neatly folded under the ring and blade was a red colored cloak. I tapped on it to view its stats, the item was named:

[Cloak of the trickster god"(3/3)]

"The Cloak worn by the Trickster god Exodus Red who defied and angered many across the world of Eoxapia."

(Cloak,Rank: Divine)

AGI(+40)

Active: "Whenever the hood of the cloak is over the player's head they are granted invisibility to mobs and players.

Passive: Each kill with "Claw of Cerberus" will grant stealth for 3 seconds.

I was in complete shock, I couldn't believe I had such luck. I decided to put the ring on my finger which caused me to feel much stronger. I decided to put the cloak on next which was surprisingly very comfortable and warm. I picked up the dagger in my hand and immediately felt light to my feet. I looked towards the long hallway on the other side of the room and began running. A hallway that would usually take me 30 seconds to run down took me 5 seconds with ease, I felt unstoppable. Once I reached the end of the hallway I turned a corner to see a shining pink circle on the ground. I walked up and took a step on the center and nothing happened, but once I got both feet on my vision began to fade as I saw myself dissolve away into pink particles and soon it was complete darkness. A couple seconds later I saw the same pink particles and a very bright light, I squinted and looked around, finding myself back at the base of the big tree. I walked away from the tree and back onto the path I began walking, but before I got too far I turned back and looked at the tree and thought to myself, soon I will return…

I continued walking down the path as it began getting darker outside, I arrived at the top of a hill and in the distance saw a massive city. "This must be the second spawn option" I thought to myself. When entering the game when given the decision if I wanted to spawn in the central city or a random location I decided to go with random spawn to see if I could collect anything along the way. I continued to walk down the path as it began getting darker and I noticed the path began being lit by flowers lining the edges. I started hearing voices in the distance, and as I slowly approached I saw a group of players all huddled around something laughing. I took it upon myself to investigate, I pulled the hood of my cloak over my head for the first time and watched my body become transparent with a light blur to make out the parts of my body, I was so excited to show Kaori all the items I got. I began to approach the group of players who were all male laughing as they seemed to be playing some sort of a game. I creeped up behind one of them and peered over him to find them kicking something around to each other. As I looked closer I found the thing they were kicking to be what seemed to be a small furry animal rolled up in a ball. The sight angered me as I stepped back a couple feet and put my hand on my dagger holster. I pulled it out half way and dashed straight to one of them, and swung my dagger right towards the center of his back. I watched as he jolted up in shock, and all of his friends looked over confused. I quickly dashed to the next player, I felt faster this time as I swung right across his back, this hit being stronger than the last. I noticed the other two players drew their swords, so before the body faded away I kicked him straight into the other two. And through the cloud of blue particles I swung two fast cuts right at the player's chest much faster than the others, I turned as he dropped to his knees. The last player began backing away slowly with a confused fearful look on his face.

"H-hey, who are you? "

I took the hood of my cloak off revealing myself. The player with an even more confused look on his face took another step back.

"Why are you killing us? "

I looked towards the animal on the ground and noticed it was laying on its side half way rolled up in a ball. I tightened my grip on the dagger and I looked back at the player.

"W-wai.."

I dashed straight past the left of him pushing my dagger right into his chest knocking him off his feet as he fell onto the ground with his arms sprawled out as the now familiar blue particles drew from his body.
