Chapter 10 – Bramble Sword

Paa

The sword entered the mud as I quietly sat there, thinking about what to do. The beginner village boss, huh? Looks like it's hard to find. I'm surprised no one has killed it yet. It surely has to do with my exploration in the deep jungle. This Bramble Bear King surely must be the Grass Dog Village's strongest monster. Once it's killed, it'll surely drop loads of great items, so I must not miss out on it.

But, what should I kill it with? Surely I can't use this body of mine with second-rate fighting skills and one piece of cloth armor to kill it, right?

I looked at the sky, then back at the boss. Slowly, my willpower gathered and I made up my mind. Mm, it's not like it can't be killed. I'll need to use the landscape. The Bramble Bear King's body is huge, and its legs aren't considered long. It's attacking style should also be limited by this. Perhaps, I could use that big hole in the tree on the right and hide inside. Maybe then, I can slaughter this boss.

Hua

Standing up, I hesitated for a short moment before deciding to go through with it. Whatever I say, I shall do.

Just then, as I was getting up, a low voice came from behind me.

"Hi, friend. Do you plan to kill that bear king on your own?"

Damn, there's people now.

I took my sword and turned. There were 5 people about 30 yards away from me, all levels 8-10. One of them had a team leader symbol on his arm. He was level 10, which was pretty rare.

[Western Tyrant] (Novice Swordsman)

Level: 10

His name was quite aggressive. Behind him, there were 4 other people. Two were level 9 magicians, one was a bald barbarian shaman and one was a musket-wielding knight. This team feels a little a weird. Or... more like this team doesn't a have a healer!

Western Tyrant walked up, looked at me, and then he laughly heartily, saying: "Dude, you're really something. A healer wielding a sword, hoho. How much strength did you add, having this much arm strength? Whatever it is, even if you can wield a sword, you can't kill a level 10 boss solo.

I looked at them without saying a word.

Western Tyrant continued: "How about this? You join our team of five, and we all kill this Bramble Bear King together. If a cloth equip drops, you and our two magicians will Roll and see who gets it. How's that? Or else..."

I couldn't help but smile cynically. "Or else what? You're gonna bully me? With a team of five but no healer, you five can't even kill the boss anyway. You guys should know that!"

Western Tyrant flashed a evil look before smiling happily. "Don't think so much about it, I didn't mean it like that. Although I, Liu Ying, am not any kind of well-natured prince, but to steal the kill on a boss is something I definitely won't do. Look, you can't kill it solo, we also can't kill it without a healer. Why not just team up and follow the suggestion I previously mentioned? Hmm... your [Hemostasis] level should be at least level 2, right? Level 1 [Hemostasis] only heals 50 HP. If it's only at level 1 there's no way we can kill it."

I nodded my head: "Mm, my [Hemostasis] is level 2. Though... I have a request. You must agree to this or else even if you PK me here, I won't agree."

Western Tyrant laughed loudly. "Okay, its better than having to kill you. Say it. Though, it musn't be too ridiculous. Other than that, I'll accept anything."

"Okay!"

I glanced at Western Tyrant, as well as the knight next to him. Smiling, I said: "About this, I don't need the cloth equip. If a cloth equip drops, you guys can have it. I only want sword-related weapons. As you guys can already see, my weapon is a sword. I only have this request. Once a sword drops, I'll Roll together with you guys to decide to gets it. How's that?"
