'Are you fudding kidding me! AM I only my strongest for 5 minutes a day! I go to sleep early for god's sake!' Harvard wanted to smack himself! "Harvest King. This is all your fault! Why didn't you listen to me!"

"Harvest King?" Harvard saw him walking down the small path. "Harvest King! Don't go that way!"

"What's the worst that can happen? You already killed the Mini-Boss," Harvest King smiled and held up his thumb with a smile. "We already cleared the path, and the prompt did say take the road least traveled!"

###

2 hours later

Harvard finally got Harvest King to take the large path.

However, he had reached level 25 due to several dozen unfortunate occurrences along the way. He killed 2 mini bosses because Harvest King refused to not open up treasure chests, and almost got eaten by a large possessed thousand tooth hidden alligator. To make matters worse, they came to a dead end and he still spent 20 minutes looking for a secret passage!

'This is great! You even found me new armor!" Harvest King smiled, and looked at his sparkling silver armor and helmet and his new epic sword . It was the two epic items he owned that Harvard got from the possessed thousand tooth hidden alligator. For some reason, it seemed like nothing good dropped for Harvard no matter how much he prayed or rubbed Lilac's back!

It was also getting late, closer to sundown! Rugged Rolling Stones had begun to return into the walls, so their fluorescent asses stopped shinning so brightly!

"I'm glad your happy," Harvard looked down at his wrist and saw the time.

[Current time: 10:05]

"We spent five hours in here because of you! We could've been to Central City by now!"

"We're finally at the end of the tunnel," Lilac smiled and pointed at a treasure chest. "I-I think that's the chest my father wanted us to find. However, it's probably booty trapped."

"What did you say, booty trapped?" Harvest King snickered. "Don't you mean booby trapped?"

"No, I meant booty trapped! I'm sure it's booty trapped! That's what father says whenever he finds a new women to date! He says he's booty trapped!"

"I'll go check it out," Harvard walked towards the golden chest.

It was on a stone podium with a small oak tree behind it that had a few wine barrels on the left and right side of it. It was pretty dark, but Harvard was certain this had to be the treasure! He didn't fight three mini-bosses by going the wrong direction just to get tricked by a booty trap!

"Good Luck!" Lilac jumped up and down and shook her booty in his direction. You got this! "Get that booty"

"You're even hotter when you don't know what you're talking about," Harvest King nodded his head and looked at Harvard. "Now come on! No traps! No traps!"

[Treasure Chest requires a key.]

[Please defeat the boss to find the key!]

[System information: The boss is somewhere in this room. However, it might be worth waiting till 12 o clock to fight him in order to ensure victory.]

"Zzzzz, I'm tired," Lilac leaned on Harvest King's shoulder, and smacked him on his armor. "I need to go home! I-I'm so tired, and vulnerable! My father wouldn't like me to be out here with you two men so late! This was supposed to be a fast Quest!"

"I-I suppose we shouldn't wait till 12 then?" Harvard pointed at the walls. "Anyways, let's look around for a hidden switch! I bet we'll find the boss."

###

[Current time is 11:59]

"It's impossible! I give up!" Lilac kicked aside a barrel. "We can come back tomorrow! Even though the dungeon will reset, we can just walk the right direction!"

"Hold on! I think I found something," Harvard tapped on the tree. He checked everywhere besides the tree! It seemed to obvious to be the trap, and it was also a tree. "Damn it! Come on! There has to be a switch somewhere."

[Midnight Ruler Daggers have now been autoequipped.]

[Midnight Ruler skill has been automatically activated]

[The Midnight Ruler Mask has now been automatically auto-equipped.]

[Agility + 99] (30%)

[Damage + 50] (15%)

[You learned a new skill, Ultimate Tracking!]

[You will now be able to see marks left behind! Perhaps this skill will be useful?]

'Why did I just learn that skill?' Harvard had no idea he searching for 2 hours kept giving him experience for a class skill. Class skills were different from normal skills in that they got earned from doing things.

When he searched the room for two hours, he'd been gaining experience for this tracking skill! Unfortunately, when it activated, there wasn't a single clue in the room!

"You hit me," A deep voice came from the tree. "Hoho, I see boy. I see you came to challenge me. I can feel a dangerous curse emitting from you. Killing you will make this world a better place!"

"The tree! The tree was the boss!" Harvest King slammed down his sword. "Damn it! What bad timing! Our healer fell asleep!"

"Wha?" Lilac got up from lying down on a barrel. "What happened? Mother finally came back home?"

Lilac had lost her mother at a young age because she was a gold digger and wanted a richer father. After that, her father went from women to women and never had any children. Something about him being the mayor and rich attracted even the most beautiful women. She would never fall for anyone rich, never!

"Harvard! Can you deal with that? I was dreaming about my mother," Lilac turned over. "It's a tree. It will be easy."

[King Oak's Tree] (Boss)

[Level 28]

[Reputation: Forgiving]

[System information: His weakness is somewhere you won't expect! Don't think too hard, or you'll never get it!]

King Oak's Tree opened its yellow eyes that had been hiding behind the bark. Out of its side, its branches started to grow longer while little fruit began to fall from it and start to move on the floor.

[Bomb Fruit]

[Level 28]

[They explode!]

[Reputation: Suicidal Mofos]

'Ugh, where do you even hit it!' Harvard rushed towards the tree and dodged the suicidal exploding fruit.

Fruit juices exploded everywhere around him! It was incredibly serious! He jumped into the air and tried to slash in the bark, but then the trees eyes shot out laser beams.

Bang!

Swoosh!

Harvard crashed into a wall and slid down it slowly while the dozens of bomb fruit fought valiantly against Harvest King. On the other hand, he just ran away from them with his hands flailing in the air.

"I'm kitting them! I got this!" Harvest King literally ran around in a circle and attracted more Bomb Fruit that exploded. To be more precise, they were really like balloons. When they got to a certain size they'd burst and send their juices flying.

Harvard rubbed his head and got up before rushing towards the tree! It was time to show the tree who's boss!
