Helios

Helios turned his head to Calrex, who had informed the blue haired woman of the NPC that sat up ahead. He watched as Meokka wandered towards her, accepting the quest. As the young man equipped his curved sword, a grin formed on his face. "Alright, let's go!" he chuckled, following the bluenette who was leading the way to the cave entrance. Upon arrival, the player examined the cave. It was the same place he'd explored with Shizuka and Tobi and their quest had ended quite well, with nobody injured at all.

Looking at the two blue haired players, Helios smiled, crossing his arms over his chest. "Well, shall we enter?" he asked the two.

Helios chuckled. "Alright, if that's what you'd like me to do." he replied, raising his curved sword. Swiftly, the dark haired player rushed towards the weak boar, slashing it with his blade. It suddenly shattered into particles, which quickly disappeared. "Well, it was a nice try, although you didn't hit any of them. Shall we fight some more?" he questioned the other player.

After failing his first attempt at crafting Tobi's request, the cook decided to try a couple more times. He pulled some materials out of his inventory, placing them on the counter in front of him. His first attempt went alright, however it wasn't as good as Helios would have liked it to be. Instead of making gummy bears, like the request said, he had created a piece of garlic bread. Next, he decided it was time to create something new. "I'll try my luck with a dessert, I guess." he said, beginning his craft. This time, it was a perfect item. "Awesome!"

(-3 Materials, +12 EXP)

Helios swiftly slashed through one of the beasts, causing it to step backwards a bit. Suddenly, it rushed forwards, scratching the player in the leg. The attack left a crimson red mark in him, however it didn't do much damage, despite it being a critical hit. "Well, that's annoying. Alright, one more hit and you'll be dead, right? Let's go then!"

A swift slash through one of the boars was all Helios needed to defeat the mob. He watched as the man failed to hit his opponent, which wasn't unexpected since he was a low leveled player who may not have been in a lot of combat. "Try again, I'll let you have the kill." he told the spear-wielding player, who was about to make another attack.

Helios smiled as he accepted the woman's friend request. "Thanks a lot for the help. It would have taken me ages to take on this quest alone." he chuckled before he heard the old NPC climbing the mountain behind the two players. "You did it! You defeated THE BOULDER! To repay you, I will give you my <<MARTIAL ARTS>> SKILL. Go on, brave swordsman! Fight on with my almighty ability!" the old man told him, shouting a bit too much for the player's liking. As the NPC finished his speech, a notification popped up, indicating that he had successfully completed the quest. "Well, Manta, I guess I'll see you around." he smiled gently, waving to the woman as he began to exit the cave.

Helios smiled gently as a man walked into his shop. First customer, awesome. he thought, examining the player. "Hey, welcome to my shop." he began, waiting for a reply. He then said, "Yep, I've got a perfect chocolate bar right here." he chuckled, picking up the bar and placing it down in front of him for the player to take. "Enjoy. And told forget to tell your friends!" the young man laughed, his hands sliding into his pockets.

Before the customer had entered, Helios had been doing some of his daily crafting. He was able to successfully create his first snack quite well, so he decided to attempt another item. Yet again, it turned out to be an alright craft. "Awesome, two new items." he chuckled.

(-2 Materials, 5 EXP)

Helios waited, hoping another mob would attack, but once again, nothing moved. These wolves are weird. I'd expect a lot more attacks coming from them, but I guess I was wrong. That's fine, I'll just have to get more aggressive with my fighting style if I want to end the battle fast. he thought, glancing over to the alpha wolves and then to the other wolf, deciding who to pick off first.

An alpha wolf barked loudly, causing one of the smaller animals to attack. Unfortunately for it, Helios was ready for the attack. He activated his sword skill, <<Bear Knock>> and pulled it up. It began to glow green once again as he slashed the wolf four consecutive times. A sigh escaped Helios' mouth as he noticed that he had only gotten a material and no extra loot drop. "No matter, I'll just finish off the rest of them."

Upon stopping, Helios looked around at the four wolves who were left standing. The rest had shattered into pixels, destroyed forever. Or at least, until they respawned later. "Who's next?" he asked the growling mobs, who stayed back carefully. Helios was afraid he wouldn't get a great loot drop from these, so he stood still for a moment. I only got 40 col from each of the wolves. Maybe I'll get lucky this time around?

Helios glanced down at his blade, watching it become bright green. "Alright, it's almost time to finish this fight off." he said, rushing towards his opponents. One by one they attempted to fight him back, although none of them managed to land a single scratch. Quickly, Helios began to spin, doing a complete 360 degree rotation. His sword was aimed at the perfect height to kill four of the mobs. "Four down, four to go."

A wolf swiftly sprinted towards Helios, but he was able to quickly evade the attack. Suddenly, another came from behind him, biting his leg. "Damn, that's real annoying." he said kicking it off. The player looked back at his familiar, who looked bored. "Alright, I'm sorry, I'll get serious. You clearly want your snack that I promised, so I'd might as well bring it to you."

Raising his sword, Helios smirked, waiting for another attack. However, to the boy's surprise, there wasn't one. Instead, the pack of wolves sat back, apparently waiting for him to attack as well. Geez, I'll never be able to understand the coding put into these mobs... Whatever, they die the same way if I hit them enough. And hopefully I'll get a loot drop as well.

Helios opened the door of "The White Stag" with a slight grin. As he entered the building, he looked around. Interesting place. he thought, looking around at all of the modern decorations. "Hey, Teselmar. It's been a little while since we spoke!" he chuckled, waving at the shop owner. "So, you've decided to open up your own place as well?" he asked, stepping up to the table and taking an order form. Carefully, the young man decided what kind of an item he wanted to have before handing the blonde man the form.

Unexpectedly, four wolves attacked at once. "Well, that's a problem." he sighed, blocking an attack with his curved sword. Luckily, he was able to dodge attacks from three of the wolves, but the final one managed to land a scratch on him. It wasn't a bad wound or anything, and he only lost two points of health, but it was still kind of annoying.

On arrival, the wolf pack noticed Helios and his partner immediately. "I can handle this with ease. I'll bring you back some food." he grinned, as the jaguar sat down to watch him defeat his opponents, only really caring about the snack. The two alpha wolves stepped out from the group, growling ferociously. The dark haired man only chuckled at the sight. They were weak wolves, of course. "It's not like you can harm me too much." he announced, stepping forward.

Stepping outside of the gates of the Town of Beginnings, Helios grinned. "Today we're grinding for items, Lucifer." he said to his jaguar, who stepped forward until they were beside each other. A growl left the animal's mouth as he nudged the boy's leg, wanting him to hurry up. "Alright, alright. Let's go then." he grinned, searching the area for boars or wolves. Suddenly, he spotted a group of wolves near the edge of a small group of trees. "Here we go." the young, dark haired man chuckled as he unsheathed his curved sword, Kanshou. He flipped it into the air, catching it by the hilt, which he had gotten quite good at recently, and began to walk towards the small wolf pack.

Another punch was thrown at the rock, and once again it did nothing to damage it. He sighed at his failure before listening to the woman speak. I wonder if I know either of the players she spoke about. "Sure, that sounds great, although I don't really have anybody to bring in. That's fine though, we don't need that many people anyway. If you don't mind me asking, what are the two player's names?" he asked, curiously.

"Then if you don't mind, I'll pay for a meal for you to eat." he smiled, listening as the child introduced himself. "Nice to meet you Comet. I'm Helios." the player replied before turning his head to the waitress who had begun to stroll up to their table. As the NPC arrived, two order forms appeared in front of the players. Helios chose a plate of French toast as his meal and a glass of hot chocolate for a drink. "Choose whatever you'd like, I don't mind paying at all." he chuckled, leaning back into his chair.

A chuckle escaped the boy's lips. "If you want to explore down there, then I'll come with you. But you're right, it is quite nice up here." Helios responded. He stopped to think about the ginger haired man's question. The young man had spoken to a good amount of people since he'd returned, however he was unsure about how many of them Jomei knew of. "I spoke to Cal a little while back but other than him it's been mainly acquaintances and people I haven't spoken with since. I met the healer of the Azure Brigade, Shizuka, and an interesting man who goes by the name 'Teselmar'. I also stopped in at Azure's Christmas party that Kiru had put on, but I'm not sure if anyone even noticed me come in." he chuckled. "What about you? Who've you been talking to lately?"

Bringing out the salvaged material from the day before, Helios began to cook a new snack. "What should I make today?" he muttered, not really paying attention to his actions. After completing the item, he looked at it. The snack really didn't look edible and he wasn't able to salvage it again, so he decided to throw it out. "That's a shame."

After deciding to attempt the snack once more, Helios brought out more ingredients from his inventory. "Hopefully I'll be able to do this right, unlike the last attempt." he said, wondering if today would be like the last. Although it was unexpected, the player was happy to see that his creation came out alright. "Great." he chuckled, staring down at the cookie.
