Grimm Reaper 0 Posted October 1, 2020 Author #21 Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) Ozwald kept walking, and came to a larger room inside the cave, and inside were four boar pups and behind them was what seemed to be another room. Ozwald looked at the pups and realized that he probably didn't have to come up with a strategy, the boars looked very fragile, and he thought that he could easily kill them in less than a minute. walking into the room with no real strategy to speak of Ozwald brought his sword to bare on the four pups as they rushed him.

His sword easily hit the target slicing a clean line of red through its chest. The speed of the four boars took Ozwald by surprise though, they were able to completely surround Ozwald and gore at his knees and thighs, ozwald saw one of the boars get pierced by his armor and then explode into the customary red cloud, but the other boars were too fast and were able to avoid the damage Edited October 1, 2020 by Grimm Reaper Link to post Share on other sites

Despite these feelings Ozwald raised his sword and swung it downward at the fast moving boar that was in front of him. The boars were still too fast for Ozwald, he did not expect that the boar would be able to get out of the way of his sword, but it did. The fast little boars never stopped moving and were hard to hit for Ozwald. Two of the boars ran up to Ozwald and slammed their tusks into his thighs, another of the boars being impaled by the armor that Ozwald was wearing exploding again into the cloud of red dust that quickly faded away.

The boars were fast though and were able to dodge out of the way of Dawn's Lament, Ozwald's sword, in order to not get hit at all by the blade. "Stay still you tiny little buggers" Ozwald yelled out, his british accent coming through his words very strong, because of how emotional he was. Ozwald had only personally killed one of the boars that were here and so, decided that just letting the boars kill themselves on his armour would be the best strategy to win. Of the two remaining boars only one attacked slamming into the back of Ozwald's knees almost causing him to topple over. Just like Ozwald expected the armour did its work piercing through the small boar and making it, like its friends, explode into the red cloud of data. Link to post Share on other sites

Ozwald once again braced himself to be attacked by the final boar, hoping that his armour would be able to deal with the final boar when it goes in to strike. The boar readied itself fro what Ozwald was hoping would be the final charge that boar ever makes. The boar launched itself at Ozwald its hooves clacking against the stone floor of the cavern slamming its head directly into Ozwald's stomach, but the boar was able to jump away before the armour was able to pierce through it. Ozwald cursed his luck and the speed of these much smaller boars. Ozwald again waited for the boar to get ready to attack, making sure that his stance was solid and that he would be able to take the brunt of the blow.

The boar that was standing a few feet away seemed to be waiting for something. "it is probably waiting for me to take the initiative" Ozwald thought to himself "I guess i will have to charge it down.". Ozwald prepared himself sliding his foot backwards lining his sword up horizontally preparing himself to charge at any moment. Ozwald looked the boar in the eyes, his red ones full of fire and determination, and the boars with no actual emotion, just the cheap imitation. The boar had flat red eyes, This realization, the fact that the boars had no emotions triggered something in Ozwald. The idea of killing these emotionless creatures didn't bother him anymore. Ozwald thought back on the previous creatures that he put his blade through and no longer felt the guilt that he used to feel. Edited October 1, 2020 by Grimm Reaper Link to post Share on other sites

He looked the boar in the eye and pushed forward running as fast as he could, sword held straight out ready to pierce the boar. Ozwald's sword easily slid through the boars flesh piercing deep, as Ozwald pulled his sword out he could see the boar's health bar rapidly depleting. The boar took one step forward before bursting into a fog of red particles. Ozwald looked at the area the boar had stood satisfied at the job he had done, before going around and harvesting the materials that he needed to get for Lyle, successfully gathering all of the materials that he needed. Ozwald took another quick look around the room, finding nothing new , and nothing that he could salvage. Ozwald walked to the entrance of the back room of the dark and cramped cave.

Grimm Reaper 0 Posted October 1, 2020 Author #27 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Spoiler ID#169800 LD: 20 Found a chest Ozwald passed the threshold for the next part of the cave, the walls were close together and Ozwald had to squeeze to get through the tunnel into the next room. Ozwald could barely see anything in the room, it was much darker than the rest of the cave had been so far. Ozwald felt his way around the jagged edge of the cave wall bumping into stalagmites as he went. When Ozwald had reached the other side of the room he kicked something that sounded like wood rather than the stone that he had previously been bumping into. Ozwald bent down to look at what he had bumped into. Ozwald felt the object noticing that it was in fact made of wood and had a few iron bands on it. "Could it be" Ozwald spoke to himself feeling around the front of the object for a latch "It is, how lucky am I" Ozwald exclaimed after finding out that it was a chest.

Grimm Reaper 0 Posted October 1, 2020 Author #28 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Spoiler ID#169805 LD: 2 result: A mimic Ozwald gently pried the latch of the chest open, flipping it up and slowly pulling open the lid. The chest as soon as it was opened had spider like appendages slip out of the chest raising the chest higher into the air, almost face level with Ozwald, and six pairs of eyes opened up on the front of the chest. Ozwald looked on in horror, in the dim light it was hard to see, but he knew that the chest had to have been a mimic. It looked like some weird spider, 8 long spindly black legs coming out from inside the chest, which looked like it was filled with a black pulsating body mass. The chest's eight glowing red eyes focused on Ozwald as a mouth opened on the front of the chest full of rows upon rows of sharp yellow pointy teeth. and a long pink tongue.

Ozwald could feel the rows of sharp teeth trying to force their way through his armour and into the flesh of his shoulder. The mimic didn't seem to care at all about the sharp tendrils of cold darkness coming out of Midnight Haze stabbing into his mouth. Link to post Share on other sites

Ozwald pulled his sword out of its scabbard and held it vertically facing towards the beast that had him grabbed by the shoulder, plunging the blade upwards deep into the beasts wooden stomach. The spider chest creature let go of Ozwald's shoulder scurrying backwards away from the golden sword. The blood dripping off of Ozwald's sword wasn't like normal blood, it was a black sticky ichor that ran down the fine golden steel. The Mimic roared at Ozwald spit flying into his face from where the creature stood on his 8 spindly black legs. Ozwald knew that this fight was far from over and prepared to strike again, before the spider could attack again. Link to post Share on other sites

It was as if his sword knew exactly what it needed to do in that moment and that it had taken control.Ozwald slid under the spider creature's pin like legs holding his sword upwards once again slicing its wooden stomach and spewing the sticky black ichor all over the floor of the cavern. Ozwald rolled forward right as the big spider thing turned to bite at him, narrowly missing his foot, the spider roared, making a sound that made shivers run down Ozwald's spine. Turning to face the creature Ozwald stared at it with an intense look that could kill lesser men. "Your days are numbered" Ozwald said to the creature pointing his ichor soaked sword at it soliciting no response. Link to post Share on other sites

Ozwald could feel the pressure building again, The sharp teeth pressing into the armor, almost biting all of the way through still seemingly not bothered by the sharp tendrils of darkness coming off of Ozwald's armor Ozwald couldn't let those teeth through the armour, he didn't want to see how much damage they might do. Ozwald once again took the blade that he bought grabbing it with both hands launching it deep into the Spider like creature's eye. The spider once again let go of its prey screaming a scream that would send shivers down the strongest beast's spine, spewing ichor from out of its eye all over the cavern walls and the floor. Ozwald watched as the creature fell over and dissipated into the customary red cloud that he had grown used to. Ozwald walked over to where the corpse had been and picked up the materials that were there, pocketing them in his inventory. Link to post Share on other sites
Grimm Reaper 0 Posted October 1, 2020 Author #32 Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) Ozwald squeezed his way back through the tight hallway back into the main chamber of the cave, Eyes adjusting to the light Ozwald searched for the corridor of rough hewn stone that would lead him out of this cave. Once his eyes had fully adjusted to the sunlight that could filter in through the corridor, it was easy enough to find. Continuing his trek back to the Town of Beginning Ozwald walked through the corridor leading to the outside and the hilly plains beyond. Walking along the same route that had brought Ozwald to the cave it didn't take very long for Ozwald to get back to the gate of the safe zone and to enter the town. Ozwald followed the path that he had memorized back to Lyle's shop. Ozwald opened the door to the elderly blacksmith's shop "Hello," he called out "I brought back the materials that you were looking for." Ozwald waited for Lyle to come back into the main portion of his hop. "Ah it's you boy, I see you brought what I needed. Hand it over boy" Ozwald placed the bag of materials into the elderly man's outstretched hand. "I want you to deliver a package for me, to a girl named Hannah you can find her in a grove of trees near town. Oh and take these for your trouble" Ozwald accepts both the package for Hannah and the gifts that Lyle gave him turning around he exits Lyle's shop.
