VRMMORPG: Dragomancer Reborn



Arthur looked at the Arrow that was struck in the Blood Mane Sickle Beasts torso and was surprised.

"What the…" He wished to look back, but couldn't take his eyes off the enemy in front of him. 

"Tch~ That's a tough beast. Even my skill barely did 4% damage to it." Arthur suddenly heard a voice.

~CLANG~

Arthur blocked an attack from the Blood Mane Sickle Beast and hit its sickles, causing them to be deflected.

~ROAR~

But the beast was greatly agitated and directly used its skill again. The Blood Mane Sickle Beast spun and spread its sickles outward, intending to strike all that was within its range.

Of course, Arthur managed to dodge it with ease but he also realized something else.

'It's target isn't me?' Arthur suddenly saw the beast change its direction. 'The person who shot the arrow!' he turned to look where the person was and finally saw them.

"It's coming towards you, dodge!" Arthur shouted at the girl some distance from him.

She was holding a bow and had a quiver on her back. She wore a green tunic with light leather armor and was quite clearly an archer.

The girl heard Arthur's words but also saw the Blood Mane Sickle Beast rushing towards her.

"Dammit! What the hell is this thing?" She cursed and shot an arrow before rolling away at the last moment. 

"Agh!" Still, her speed couldn't compare against the Blood Mane Sickle Beast, and ended up getting nicked.

Arthur quickly took a look at the new person who had arrived and their condition.

'She's a player? And that too at level 12 already?' Arthur hadn't expected someone like that to have already come this far. "You need to get as far as possible from the beast, you aren't strong enough to go up against it!" he warned out loud.

"YEAH! I KNOW NOW!" Val shouted in pain but still did as Arthur had said.

But the Blood Mane Sickle Beast did not seem to be ready to give up on her and continued to follow after her.

"WHAA! Why's this beast coming after me!?" Val continued to run but saw the Blood Mane Sickle Beast chasing after her.

"You're the weaker one so it's obvious it'll target you!" Arthur reminded but then realized that players probably hadn't figured that out yet. "Don't worry I'm coming!" he said before charging towards the beast.

"SKEWER!" Arthur directly used his strongest skill, hitting the Blood Mane Sickle Beast on its back.

[-41% HP]

[Critical Hit!]

The Key Spear went through the Blood Mane Sickle Beast's back, cutting through its spine and coming out through the beast's neck.

~THUD~

[-3% HP] Frost Damage 

The Blood Mane Sickle Beast collapsed on the ground, while Dietrich was still stuck in its back. 

Arthur got closer and pulled out the spear before finishing the job.

[-6% HP]

[Fatal Hit!]

>Player Arzhur has killed the Blood Mane Sickle Beast!<

>Player Arzhur has obtained 65% Experience!<

>Player Val has assisted in killing the Blood Mane Sickle Beast<

>Detected that Player Val is not in a party with Player Arzhur! Partial experience shall be granted!<

>Player Val has obtained 90% Experience!<

>Player Val has leveled up!<

Arthur looked at the notifications and frowned a bit.

'Just a few percent short of another level up.' Arthur looked at his own experience bar

<Experience: 97%>

"Wonder if I can still kill the Bone Blade beasts?" He looked at the Bone blade beasts that were already half dead.

>Dragon Horn Beetle has killed Bone Blade beast!< x 3

>Dragon Horn Beetle has obtained 8% Experience<

~Sigh~

"Guess it won't be enough. I'll just have to find some other ones." Arthur muttered to himself, letting Brambles kill the last of them.

And while Arthur was doing this, the girl was looking at him and the beetle in the distance. The shock was apparent on her face and it was a mystery as to whether it was due to the notifications she was getting or the fight that was ongoing.

But then again, it was probably the latter. After all, not everyday did one get to see a giant beetle toss beasts like they were rag dolls.

"What… What is that?" The girl approached Arthur before asking.

Arthur turned to her, his brows furrowed while a few thoughts went through his mind.

"Don't you know not to interfere in other's fights? This would almost be considered kill stealing." Arthur warned her.

"I… I just thought you needed help." The girl said, her expression falling.

Seeing that Arthur shook his head, realizing that she wasn't the same as him and didn't have the same kind of experience with the game yet.

~SIGH~

"At least know what kind of enemy you are going up against." Arthur advised. "Did you not check it before attacking?" he asked.

"Check it? Do you mean the Inspect skill?" Val asked.

"Yeah." Arthur nodded his head.

"I didn't have the time… I just attacked first." Val replied, having a look of embarrassment on her face.

~Sigh~

Arthur sighed once more wondering just how had she managed to come this far without knowing something basic like this. 

'Even the players in the villages would pick up on this in just a couple of days.' Arthur thought to himself before realizing something else. 'Wait… who is she?' he questioned himself.

"Who are you?" Arthur asked right away while racking his mind for information about any player named Val.

"Me? I'm Val! I'm an archer!" She answered right away.

"Hmm…" Arthur narrowed his eyes, making the girl nervous.

"KRIIIIII~" Meanwhile Brambles was having a fun time tossing the Bone Blade beasts in the air and then trying to keep them there.

It was clear that the beetle was just playing around with the Bone Blade beasts at this point.
