[F1-SP] A festering problem <<secret medicine of the forest>>

[Mars 0]

With what he said over and done with he waits for the right moment he watches the Nepent licks its lips in anticipation of what it must view as vulnerable prey even wit hits rather pathetic amount of health that is left compared to his rather large health pool. He slowly bends his knees once more wanting to try and get a good strike if anything on this creature wanting to get this quest over even if the fighting could be enjoyed greatly. He does has plans to fulfill, and a schedule to keep. Himself having not planned to fight Nepents for even one hour, so to be putting this much time into this quest is rather frustrating for himself thinking the actual fighting part was going to be the easy part of this quest. However, it seems the quest has had other plans for himself.

He looks to the Nepent and runs towards the creature as the Nepent responds in kind with trying to skewer him with its leaves that it uses as weapons. He ducks around the fist one and then rolls forward to dodge the next with that he then pushes off of the ground with his hands towards the creature and tries to kick it. Suddenly he feels something tighten around his leg as he then gets tossed away from the creature. He quickly turns his body to land on his feet as he slides along the ground not feeling any pain having gotten use to that sensation long ago. Leaving nothing towards the feeling that would usually create such a feeling long forgotten.

He looks towards the creature and quickly runs towards it as he sees the creature equally ready to try and attack him he quickly jumps up doing a small spin before kicking the creature as hard as he can as it bursts into millions of tiny little crystals. He looks down to where it was before looking around waiting patiently for the Variant to show up like how it should by this point since he killed off its two weaklings that are its underlings. He keeps his eyes going over the clearing waiting for the smallest of noises or slightest disturbance in the nature to give him the sign he needs to try and attack whatever could be out their. He sighs softly as nothing immediately comes out from the darkness of this forest as he sits down on the ground to rest for ab it. Sitting down on a rock in the clearing while idly looking around with a bored expression.

He looks around the field idly wandering if he could find anything while waiting for this variant to show up to try and attack him. As he does so he doesn't spot anything as he glances around. Nothing in the ground, or on the ground that could be a material. Nothing near the trees that surround this little clearing and no glinting of lights to let him know of any treasure chest that could be hidden about. He leans against the rock as he does feel it shift ever so slightly when he does so. He looks back towards the rock and gets off of it and turns to see what is going on with it. He isn't disappointed as the rock gets thrown off as the Nepent Variant comes from the ground that was below the rock as he stares at the creature with a raised eyebrow. Okay why did you think that was smart? It was a rock you dumb plant. Seems you're about as useful as anything else around here. He says with a bored tone as he looks at the creature.

#92635  LD: 7 No treasure chest

[Mars 0]

He looks towards the variant before quickly running towards it pretty confident he will one shot kill this creature like every other he had fought so far. However, it seems he will pay for such arrogance as he quickly gets smacked into a tree by this Nepents leaf whip things stopping his attack flat as he glares at the creature as he looks to the creature. Feeling a mixture of anger and glee at this creature trying to stand up to him. He might need to seek some self council after this to figure out why he seems to enjoy anything trying to stand defiant to him. He thinks on this while he can making sure to try and be prepared to dodge any attack that could come at him. He can only imagine that he enjoys seeing creatures be defiant since very soon after they will most likely fall and be broken before him. To know their place is below him to give him that rush of power he enjoys holding overs as much as he can. With this game having brought out a side that seems to enjoy having that power shown through direct action rather then subtle manipulation as he had been use.

He looks towards the Variant and walks over towards it with a slight grin on his face as he dodges the leaf whips sidestepping each of them with ease as he stares at the enemy who seems to get more panicked as it continues swining more and more wildly as he continues dodging the attacks jumping them or bending out of the way. However, once he is in front of the Nepent he quickly knees the thing as hard as possible and then punches it as it shatters into nothing once more leaving him nothing. He tightens his fist while glaring at the crystals. DAMN IT! he screams at the top of his lungs before glaring at the forest all around him not caring anymore losing all composure. Feeling like this whole quest and mobs have slighted him at this point as his patience has run out now as he will make sure to fight every mob with no mercy to these things.

He sees two Nepents spawn per the quests requirement and wastes no time and venting his anger. he quickly kicks off the ground towards the fist one and starts pulverizing the creature with his aggressive twins. Each strike resounding loudly through the forest with a loud. HA! With each strike until the creature couldn't handle it anymore and shatters into nothing as he goes to turn to fact the other one he loses his balance and falls over which cancels his sword art. he catches himself before his head hits the ground as he looks towards the Nepent as it tries to attack him the leaves trying to impale him. He quickly rolls out of the way before getting back up and dusting off his armor before looking at the creature his sea of anger and vengeance not even close to stopping as he can only promise this creature pain as soon as his fist will connect to it.

He looks towards the creature and quickly dashes forward once more as the Nepent tries to attack him once more trying to get the hit that it failed to get last time. He stares at the creature with his red eyes that are burning with hatred for this creature, this quest, and his terrible chances that the loot drops are seeming to have against him. He quickly jumps over the first attack and then sees the other leaf whip and grabs it before it could hit him and then pulls the Nepent towards him and then punching down hard upon its back sending it to the ground leaving it in the red just like the last Nepent that dodged his aggressive twin attack.  He looks down towards the creature that is struggling to stand back after his strike as he glares down at the being ready to try and make this things death slow even if his next strike is guaranteed to end its life.

He looks up to this walking piece of flora that is better off being put back into the ground he looks towards the creature and watches as it finally manages to get its root like legs to stands itself back up as he can only guess the creature is trying to do some equivalent of glaring at him for making it fall over with just a singular strike. He sees the creature moves its leaf whip like attack mechanism and move it to try and strike him. He moves his hands to grab them, but the creature instead of attacking with the whips tries to headbutt him instead. Seeing the sudden attack pattern shift he quickly backs away having not expected the basic mobs to try different attack tactics. However, it seems even the basic wildlife can learn during a fight something he will need to take with him.

He looks to the Nepent and then quickly moves forward and tries to give it a strong right jab with his fist however it misses the Nepent by a few inches. As soon as he misses he quickly ducks under its whip things and rolls past it just continuing with his momentum instead of trying to fight against it.

He quickly gets back up onto his two feet and turns to face this nepent as he just finds this fight more irritating then impressive unlike the Variant. He can only hope that the idiotic tailor could've been done by now with his gear, but unfortunately it seems every aspect of Aincrad is trying to make his life a living torture device to make sure every quest is turned into the longest fight of his life. He grips his fists tightly, and can only hope he could get that tailor something to accelerate the process of his equipment being crafted or he would surely be out of a winning hand for being able to survive. With a matter of fact that he himself would probably be better off trying to get weapons from the game rather then the shop owner. He sighs softly and shakes his head knowing he has to be patient, or he could very well just end up with nothing in the end and have wasted the materials he had gathered painstakingly for such equipment.

He quickly bends down out of the way of another attack attempt as he looks towards the Nepent and then quickly runs towards the thing as he tries a series of jabs at the creatures that are either deflected or just plainly blocked with what he thinks might be some effort on the plants part. Either way being in a fight with a plant where the ground is even is rather embarrassing no matter the circumstance.

He looks at the creature and watches as it allows a slight opening in its defenses as he continues the onslaught of punches at it not letting it have any breathing room this time around. Once he sees the opening once more he goes for it. With one final right jab that is blocked the other leaf drifts slightly towards the right allowing an opening on the left that he uses to punch the creature and burst it into nothing just like its partner. The damage having been enough to kill it and another Nepent. Sadly however his attacks can't transfer over into the next opponent cause at this point he would appreciate such a system to keep his sanity intact after having fought these things in what shouldn't be stalemate by any standards. He takes a deep breathe before sitting down to wait for the Variant to spawn just like all the other times. Thankfully it does allow a brief moment of respite to restore a small fraction of his energy each time though.

Just like he had predicted the Nepent variant shows up as he watches as a similar looking Nepent shows up as he stares at it with a rather bored expression. He slowly rises from his sitting position and looks at the creature as he gets in his fighting stance. I am Cassius Lasairiona and i will not allow some insect to thing it can stop me from conquering this pitiful game and its people. Now then fall before the might of the war god and give me what i desire most you Nepent! Give me your item after i kill you! Cassius says while glaring at this thing as he prepares to attack the creature without any mercy to it. He quickly kicks off towards the creature and slams his knee into it like always and then punches it hard in the face shattering it and leaving no item once more as he just stares blankly at the spot where he attacked. I will murder the [Censored] out of something later. I don't care what i will find something to give all of my hate to. He says with utter anger and frustration.

He watches as Nepents appear from the forest not allowing him a moments rest as he glares at them for disturbing his ability to try and relax after all of this. He hits his fists together while glaring at these overgrown weeds within his eyes. Time to burn you into cinders for disturbing my peace you mongrels. Face the wrath of a god of war! he says before charging forward to the creatures and quickly unleashing attacks onto the two lone Nepents with his right and left fist. he continues the assault but just like last time one dodges just barely, and the other gets annihilated, with the other Nepent hitting his heavy armor. Seems like you're just a weak fool who is not knowing the true strength of a god Nepent. You all will die eventually. he says with a fierce glare.

he quickly moves forward towards the Nepent that got away and punches it as hard as he can sending it flying away as he gazes at the creature with a apathetic look. Finding this quest just tedious and monotonous rather then anything else. The blatant lack of difficulty giving him no excitement from these creatures as they try to stand up to only fall and fail like all the rest. The only difficulty from being to try and find this item that the variant has or something along those lines. he just waits calmly for the Nepent to get back to him as it slowly does with its little root legs that try to make it back over to him to most likely try to devour him whole. While failing miserably at it since he wouldn't allow himself to die in this game. Not when he has goals of causing chaos back in the real world. To enjoy the nice little fireworks of people realizing the truth of everything that this world hides.

He looks upon the creature with a look of boredom as he quickly dashes towards it and punches it hard as it shatters it into nothing not giving much care for the creature, or even time for it to react after the last attack. Not wishing to waste his day anymore with these creature that deserved to have been extinct long ago before this day. After the kill he sits on the ground and waits fro the boss Nepent to show up as he just finds this quest to be even more annoying with how this is like the queen quest, and the icile quest but much more annoying. having to try and get an item unlike just killing off the minions then the boss just making this much more tedious job after everything that has occurred. He can only hope this is the last nepent, or he might literally be in this forest all night fighting these things at the rate he is going.

I look seeing the Nepent start walking up towards him. The variant type if the little flower on it is anything to go by. He quickly gets into position and raises his fists with a grin planning to try and end this right then and their with his attack. He quickly charges towards the nepent and tries to slam his knee into the creature, but only get the Nepent trying to skewer him in return. Seeing this he quickly backflips out of the way of the attack and continues doing that for a bit more to got out of the range of the attack. Landing finally with a heavy thud finding this armor to be very restrictive, and knowing that when he gets his light armor things will only be going up from their. He just stares at the variant with a bored expression waiting for it to make the first sign of movement to try and optimize his attack time when going in to destroy it.

He looks upon the creature waiting for it to move, and then sees its razor leaves starts coming towards him as he quickly runs towards the nepent variant sliding underneath the attack and then moving towards the creature and slams his knee into it hard and chops it hard across its neck as it shatters into nothing. He then grins excitedly seeing the item finally after so many battles! I GOT THE QUEST ITEM! He just screams in victory feeling finally good about this whole mess with dealing with these nepents and their annoyance to him on every level. He then happily takes the item after so long of facing those nepents and getting absolutely nothing from them. Feeling happy about that as he just sits on the ground to recover some energy. For any kind of fight that could happen on the way back.

He takes a deep calming breathe after that and makes his way back towards the town of where this quest originated wanting to get it over with after all of this of what he went through. He walks through the forest slowly to try and remain calm after all of that he just went through. He looks along the ground for any and all materials which he can get. The necessity for that being very necessary for his survival after everything. To finally create some potions which he can use to better himself, and maybe turn a profit if they don't meet his standard. As he walks through the area he finds a nice little flower he picks up and the game informs him that is a mat that he could actually use in his alchemy and nods his head at that. Glad to have finally got something after all of this time when searching for mats as a idle thing to do during his distance of going from place to place.

#93342  LD: 16  +1 mat

He continues walking through the forest back towards his destination which is the town with which the quest had begun. He calmly makes his way out of the forest towards the expansive grassy fields that await the players once they escape from that hell that is the forest with those nepents. Rather glad he never has to deal with them ever again. he continues walking looking at all of the boars and wolves that are out and about trying to live their own lives. He looks towards the sky and sees that it is about sunset which means a rather good amount of time has passed during his stay within the forest that has brought him a strong aversion to anything plant like he could imagine. He just continues walking along wanting to leave the torture that is the forest and all of the pain it had brought him just wanting to turn in this quest, and get it over with finally.

[Mars 0]

He finally sees the town in sight after hours of walking and just enters the town wishing to end his misery for this quest wanting to just go towards the nearest bed that this town can offer in a inn and just sleep away the misery of this day. To hopefully find a day that is more calm, and productive. he quickly makes his way towards the house that this quest had began in and opens up the door finding the same woman and just hands her the quest item with a apathetic look. Take this, and don't bother me again. he then closes the door on her not wanting to hear her praise at all as he makes his way towards the nearest inn to finally just relax. Not passing by a single player as it is rather late, and not many go out this far to this town do to the fact it is only needed for this quest, and nothing much else since their isn't anything exciting that occurs within it at all from what he has seen.

[Mars 0]

He walks into the nearest inn ignoring the loud and drunken voices that are all around as he just walks up towards the innkeeper. A room for one farthest from these drunks. he tells the barkeeper and pays him for the room and then walks down the halls ignoring his calls to comeback just ignoring the man as much as it is possible to get the sleep he just wants to have after such a day as his. he passes by the doors that are locked to prevent any sounds from being escaped from them, and to prevent their items from being stolen by other more sneaky players who could get away with such a thing. Doesn't meany they are safe totally, but it will at the very least protect them from the average john from sneaking up and taking all their earned weapons and such they worked to try and live through this world with.
