Oikawa

Though the bluenette was missing on a few blows, he didn't worry. He trusted the man with his life so he was gonna continue to bring the fire power. Racing towards the Mob, Oikawa kept his blade high as he went for a cross slash. Another crimson ark marked the air that his blade had passed through as it tore into the queen. She was pissed and it was evident as she attempted to barrage the blonde with a series of stinger thrusts. Repelling them with timed shield blocks, Oikawa jumped away from her and allowed Calrex to take over. "All yours!"

Oikawa smirked at the lad's enthusiasm. "Prepare yourself," stated Oikawa as the timer drew near. But perhaps he was the one that should've been prepared. As the timer dropped to zero, an orange blur accelerated towards him. Having dealt with faster players, the blonde anticipated his strike point and moved his shield accordingly. A ringing clang resounded as the blade sparked off his shield. "You're quicker than I thought, though you'll need to be less predictable. And as for that sudden pain you felt. That was thorns and unfortunately, I have even nastier surprises than that."

Dashing forward, the blonde added some pressure by dishing out a few light jabs. Not meant to strike but to catch him off guard as he prepared his actual blow. Ducking low, he raised his shield. As he exploded forward, he used his shield to feign a shield bash as his crimson sword pierced the player. Jumping back, he created some distance and to clearly see what was coming next. 

[20349] BD: 7 (6+3-2) Hit

Lowenthal, Master of Shadows: 72/80 (-7) [8-1]

Oikawa, The Faint: 80/80

"Roger that!" exclaimed the blonde as he leaped forward and went for the left wing of the Queen. His crimson saber cutting through it as they shattered causing the wasp to loser her equilibrium and go crashing into the wall. Even as his blow finished, another bit of it's HP dwindled as Bleed took effect once more before disappearing. "Her balance is off so we should continue to have the upper hand for this fight. Lets finish her up quickly. We have more bosses to dispose of haha." The blonde was brimming with confidence and it only rose as they continued to dismantle this Mob.

[20362] CD: 11 (10+1)

His final craft was one of lesser quality than a Perfect but was still worth it as he finished it up. The Rare One-Handed Straight Sword was given the enhancements +2 Damage. He had no use for the weapon but he was sure a customer would probably make use of it. Placing it in the evaluation bin, he decided to make notes in ledger and clean up the shop. Well today was pretty effective as far as crafting goes. Orders are almost complete.

His next three crafts seemed to reflect the first bunch. Starting off the exact same as before with another critical failure of a craft. Trashing it and moving on, he tapped at his fifth craft and was surprised to have made another Uncommon quality item. Not one for keeping good or uncommon items, he tossed the weapon and focused on his next craft. The sixth craft turned out to be exactly what he wanted. Dom's kitchen set. Adding the proper enhancement, he placed it in the evaluation bin and grabbed his final material. Last craft of the day.

The furnace roared to life as Oikawa placed his remaining materials inside. He had a few more orders left and was always looking to take on more. Grabbing his gloves and hammer, he retrieved three of the materials and began to start crafting. The first one resulted in an utterly terrible fail. He couldn't even salvage it if he tried. Tossing it, he grabbed the second one and grinned in glee as he manged to craft the dagger that Dom had requested for Clarence. Placing it in eval, he moved onto the third craft and watched as the item came out in the form of an uncommon quality shield. Deciding he'd rather not keep it, he tossed the shield and moved on.

Far had he travel, from floor to floor looking for blacksmith. Not your average blacksmith, a skilled one. Why would anyone buy armor from someone who can't forge properly. His search leads to this shop in front him. Gurando Foji, the name of the shop said by many players.

 

Entering the establishment, a young man stand behind the counter alone. Not wasting his time, he walk straight to the counter and greet what perhaps may be the owner of this shop. "Hello, my name is Yuji. It's been a while since I fight and I need a new armor for poor me. Here is the detail."

 

 

"Is this acceptable? If not, can you help me decide what's the best armor for me?"

The chime of the bell recognized the entry of a potential customer. Looking up from his ledger, the blonde took not of a young man entering the shop. He seemed completely unfamiliar yet his level told a different story. A level which among his current roster players would've had him recognized. I wonder if he's just been in hiding for a while? Something may have happened and maybe he needed to walk away for a while? No matter. Lets see what he needs.

"Greetings Yuji. I'm Oikawa." Taking the order, the blonde looked it over before placing it in his book and grinning at the fellow. "It's acceptable and I'll PM you once it's complete and ready for pick up okay?"

The blonde smirked as the familiar orange hair of Lowenthal's peaked from the shadows. "You already know the answer to that. Plus I haven't had a bout in a while so I figured I need to warm some time before the big day." Flicking the request over, Oikawa drew his crimson blade, Kyuketsuki, and his shield, Inquisiteur, and took a lowered defensive stance in preparation for the fight. Should he accept the timer would begin to tick. The blonde scanned the player over. He actually seems quite decent. I know his blade is top stuff considering I crafted it and the rest of his gear doesn't look weak in the least. I hope the parameters I set are okay.

The blonde rested his hand on his blade as the notification appeared before him. Accepting the invite, he stared at Zero watched as three swords appeared around him. "Ready or not, that is undoubtedly the most amazing thing I've ever seen. In away you have surpassed the rumored dual wielder. What are those called and is it a skill? An unlock? His questions fired off as the timer ticked down. Selecting his own gear, a perfect silver metal shield materialized in his left hand as he drew his sword with his right. His clasp already being attached to his cape provided him with a set of enhancements as well. Focusing on the timer as it continued to trickle down, he watched Zero. Unsure of what he and the three swords he wielded were capable of.

[20332] LD: 12 (11+1)

(Highest LD attacks first.)

Grins all around as everyone received their snacks and drinks. As Teayre dug into her sundae she suddenly pushed it towards Oikawa and pointed at him. Confused, Oikawa pushed it back and pointed at Calrex. He was quite unsure if this was a game or a gesture of sorts. Either way he didn't want the ice cream and getting pointed at felt weird. Returning to his pie, he let his mind wander about the various things going on around them. Before he knew it, he was striking up conversation with the couple before him. "So what do you guys think about the Front-Lines right now? I mean from what I hear it is only a four man squad fighting the boss. You think they can handle it with no casualties?"

Nodding to the lad, Oikawa couldn't hold it in any longer. A few chuckles escaped his lips as he grasped his mouth and sides. "Keke, first thing you should know, is don't take everything you hear as gold. Always be skeptical and aware. There is no bloody reason to bring someone out here to train as a smith. No today YOU fight. I will simply spectate. I'm gauging your skills for an upcoming project and should you meet the requirements and have the desire to do so, I will inform you on said project and let you join. Any questions?" The aura around the blonde got a little more tense and serious. He meant business from here on out. "Also, since you'll only be fighting what I hand pick, I will compensate you materials and col seeing as how you won't be able to collect much with me around due to game mechanics." Sending him a friend and party request, Oikawa awaited Helios' decision.

Welp, I'm late to this.

(Disclaimer: Renegade 4 Lyfe. But Seriously. This match will not count as the match for the Upcoming Season hosted by Zelrius and Ssendom. This is simply a practice match and has no affect on our record pertaining to that season.)

Oikawa hadn't had the chance yet to enter the Battle Arena. Why ? He doesn't even know himself. The blonde stood in the middle of the Colosseum like structure. His cape draping him and naturally flitting in the slight breeze that washed over the area. A magnificent place for a bout. From the stunning architectural detail to the feeling of vigor and grit left by this place, one could only hope to have nothing but success in this arena. The spectators were scarce today. Not very many had attended these events when it's unannounced such as his practice fight with Lowenthal. A finger cut through the air as a menu dropped down. He set a few parameters and let the match request sit suspended as he waited on the arrival of his newest opponent. I want to see what I'm in for come Saturday. This will be a great way to gauge his ability as a fighter..

"Distance is nothing, kek!" Shouted the blonde as he darted around to the right side of the beast. His rapier sprang forth. Attempting to slash through the ram as it recovered from Dom's attack. However, his thrust missed by the smallest of inches as the ram jumped to the left and went for a head on charge. Switching tactics, the blonde waited for the ram to nearly make contact before easily using his shield to bat it away. The circular metal defense he carried suddenly glowed as his Thorns kicked in. Not a total fail of an attack but meh. I'll have to hit it for sure next time. Giving Dom some space to work with, Oikawa backed away to see how he'd proceed.

<Relentless Ram> 24/40 (-1) 

A uniform vanilla white cape flared and flapped in the windy heatwaves whilst trailing a blonde figure as he moved through the slightly crowded plaza. His gaze darted from one person to another as he scanned the masses for a peculiar bluenette. His search was over quickly as he moved through the sea of players and NPCs alike to reach their location.

"A tad late. my apologies. Hello Teayre and Tristan." Approaching the giant red-headed fellow, Oikawa stuck out a hand as he spoke. "Don't think we've been officially introduced yet, but I am the newest Commandant of Azure Brigade. Pleasure to meet you." Turning his attention back toy Calrex and Teayre, he made some small talk with the couple. "Been a few you lovebirds! What are we waiting for around here?" 

"Slaughter and enjoy indeed!" The slaughtering wouldn't have to wait long as snow white cotton ram spawned into view. It didn't look too dangerous, but like like the boars of the first floor; if you underestimate it, you may find yourself on the wrong end of a losing fight. Looking at Dom, Oikawa pointed up to the ram and spoke. "Target acquired. Lets get it." In seconds, like a flash of light, the blonde rushed towards the mob. A crimson rapier escaped it's sheath as it cut through air and down across the cotton covered chest of the ram. A red crescent slash appeared along the monster as he jumped back. "Go for it Dom!"

<Relentless Ram> 32/40 (-8)

"Good to hear. So I brought you out here to learn how to be a smith. I need someone to take over my shop when I decide to commit to front lines and you seem like you have the determination, grit, and vigor to be my protege? What do you say Helios?" The blonde waited for the young player's response. He couldn't help but grin because he knew his statement was a complete lie. He wouldn't bring anyone all the way out here to an <Earning A Living> quest. He in fact wanted to test the young man's skill. He was gonna take him on a monster run for a bit. Hopefully he could prove himself as a capable fighter. Time will tell.

"You can't pass this up haha. Lets get down to it then. If I recall correctly there should be a spawn node not to far from here." Taking the lead, the blonde led his fellow Brigadier down the rocky path leading to the dangerous areas of the floor. As they traversed through the ridge a canyon like opening begin to form. Pointing to it, the Oikawa motioned for Dom to look. "That over there is where the monsters tend to spawn. We should be careful though I don' think we have much to worry about.Lets continue on shall we?" Taking the first leap, Oikawa moved down into the canyon and closer to their rumored destination for the day.  

Slight breeze had picked during his brief wait. It felt rather good on a fair-weathered floor like this one. A figure passed through his peripheral vision and he immediately went to draw his sword before realizing it was Dom. "Never mind the wait my friend. We have beasts to track. I hear there is a mini floor boss about that resembles a bipedal ram that uses an nodachi for a weapon. Sounds interesting to say the least right? Well we have to find and kill a few  <Relentless Rams> before the rumored <Pan, The Horned One> will appear. You up for it?" The blonde hoped Dom was down for this but if not he'd continue at the least.

Mountains. Mountains everywhere. The region outside Rig proved to be just as dangerous as he expected. The monsters around here would definitely be stronger than most floors especially given that there was a Monster Arena located just within the limits of Rig. His uneven steps tripped about as he paced along the rocky road. He was waiting on his guildmate Dom to appear so that they could go hunting. I wonder if he's gotten stronger since I last saw him in battle? I know I have but not everyone learns at the same pace. No matter. Today we hunt and that's all there is to it. Brushing a few strands of hair from his face, the blonde planted and leaned against the wall in anticipation of Dom.

Ssendom walked back into the grand forge a day later and waves to the certain blonde haired grand-blacksmith, "Oi, Commandant Oikawa. Sorry to bug you again so soon." He came and leaned over the counter and got straight to writing up an order for him, "I am here for something for myself. I need a spatula and knife set for the restaurant and no one else has the good metal unlike you Commandant." He explained to him as he drew out elaborate designs on the spatula and knives, after which he pulled out 1500 col, "Since I couldn't tip you yesterday over the dagger for Clarence here you are." He finished writing, "Do you need anything from me Commandant?" He asks him before leaving.

"Ah no worries man always here to help." Listening to Dom's request, Oikawa made notes in his ledger before responding to him. "The flattery is strong with this one. I'll get to it as soon as possible." Collecting the Col, he placed the order and art in his book and placed it in the backroom for future crafting. As he returned, he then replied to Dom's latest inquiry. "As far as needing any thing, do you want to go on another hunt? I hear floor 7 has some beasts that need to be eradicated and I figure we chat along the way given our new affiliation. What say you guildmate? Time for another run?" 

+1500 Col

Name: (Thunder Grip)

Lowenthal walked back into the shop, almost as soon as he left. As lowenthal walked in. "Dang Oikawa. I almost made it to the end of the road this time. Thanks again for being so quick." Lowenthal said, placing his Col on the counter and leaving with his new weapon. "Again, telling everyone about you." He said, as he exited through the door and into town.

 

-1100Col

+Kashin Koji

In a flash, a transaction was had. Lowenthal entered the shop and walked straight to the counter. Chuckling from the orange haired player's comment's, Oikawa replied "The more you work at a craft, the better and faster you get at it I suppose. Kek, thank you for your business my friend." He then waved as the young man exited the shop.

+1100 Col

-1 Kashin Koji

Calrex peeked inside the Gurando Foji as he gave a wave to Oikawa, "Hey man how's the..."

 

Seeing the Grand Riptide on the table he gave a nod as he walked over. Swiping on his inventory he retrieved the Grand Maelstrom while putting the gauntlets on. They felt the same as the Grand Gauntlets, but they definitely seemed to fit better while he was wielding a sword. He gave a couple of swipes as he felt his vision sharpen, just like they did when he had the Grand Gauntlets equipped in the past.

 

Looking back over he gave an approving nod, "With that the new armament is complete. Thanks for getting it done so quickly!"

 

With that he turned and gave a friendly wave before heading back out.

The door chimed again as Calrex returned to the shop. He was instantly drawn to his new gauntlets as he didn't even bother finishing his sentence as he came forward. Oikawa simply grinned and responded, "Your welcome my friend! And I try to get it done quickly and efficiently. Cheers mate!" He again waved a goodbye as another loyal customer exited the shop.

-1 Grand Riptide

The blonde entered the shop, having received the confirmation that his clasp is ready. Collecting the item from Teayre, he exchanged the col and thanked her for the item. Putting it on and equipping it, he exited the shop with the widest grin on his face.
