Hirru

"Should I make a joke, or should I let it play itself?" He would say as he entered the arena after watching the sport that one of their opponents was making. He didn't really understand the reason for the showmanship, but it was causing a stir in what attention they were gaining from this little venture. To say that the hunter wasn't getting something out of it either was a lie. Information was the best thing he was getting and to sum up what he was dealing with, he had a fortress ahead of him. He already seen Oscar's capabilities during the last raid, but there was too much else goin

"I too will acknowledge that I am at a loss." Hirru would look to his own health as the burn and blight would finish out and burn his health down to the smallest of blips that he had ever seen. Though, had he seen smaller? He could of sworn.. He did not need to look to memories that would follow him like a shadow, but just like a shadow, dim in the presence of light. Never to be seen without the necessary harm to oneself, so what would matter to seek it out today. "I doubt that I have the capabilities to stop you now. So, I concede." He said as he sheathed his blade and shi

"You've got a point. I should put more thought into this, than just sitting pretty and trying to take damage that I shouldn't." He would state as he wheeled around. The shield would be used to spring around before it was gone from his arm in an instant, replaced by a green jeweled bracelet. It had been some time since the hunter had last put that bracelet on and it would not be the last. He would have to reminisce about better times in a bit, but there was one thing he wanted to try out. With the momentum, he would try to perform the rarely used martial arts technical move; sweep th

"Ha ha! That's how you do it!" Hirru knew that he wouldn't make it at all in this tournament after what he noticed here. That didn't mean that he wasn't going to use this for his own opportunities. There was quite a bit of time since the 23rd floor raid and since then, Hirru had not been keeping track of those that were front line worthy, nor was he keeping track of anyone that was in the front lines anymore. He used to have most of their statistics figured out, as most didn't really stray too far from a specific build, and one could see what effects each player put on to a mob or bos

As it should have been. There wasn't much to a fight between an actual fighter compared to someone without much capabilities to do so. He had thrown all of that away to be someone that stands behind the fighters, not with them. He figured that there wouldn't be any way to work through it when push came to shove. Especially when the black flames of Fallen come into play. Hirru should have figured that into his planning, but immunities to the special attack uniques had not come to the player's usage. There were bosses seen with it though, so it could be a matter of time until something

The area wasn't really the best place he would call a battling ring, but what did he know. He had earned an invitation to something that he thought would be fun, or at least test out some things that he had been wanting to work out. The whole thing seemed to be a change from the last tournament that he went to, but that was more a friendly bout after the strange happenings of the 26th floor. This was something slightly different. There were heavy restrictions compared to Baldur's. As soon as the dual began, the stats of the players would be equalized. It would be awful to face someone wi

The Traveling Flame was no longer traveling at the moment, and had now become the central camp for the 29th floor. With that being said, it felt like whenever Hirru would come to check up on the Merchant, it seemed to be slightly more different each time. When did it exactly have that weird symbol? Was it part of the building or the previous tenants of the building? Hirru didn't know, but it seemed odd. Though what was odder was the new capabilities that he was going to try out. A new way to get exactly what one would want? Ridiculous! However, he would look at the odd shield and amule

Why is the healer joining a fighting tournament?

Not too long would they be joined by the third member of their party, Jomei. It had been a while since they last interacted, but it was quite the fruitful one. At least, the hunter thought it would be, if not for the things that they saw, and still see now. His thoughts would go to the book, and the things that have happened since. There have been many times that Hirru has been having to let his story rest, but each time there was someone that wished to hear it. Baldur knew.. "Actually, we had one instance some time ago. It was slightly after the 26th floor, if I remember right? As

The sound of thunder would be more than enough, but the sounds of screaming more than added to the situation. There was something wrong and it wasn't just the stupid amount of people that seemed to think that a warning from the front liners didn't mean anything. No, there was more to it after Freyd and a few others had tried to keep a few players away from the area. The thunder turned into crashing and quakes, and before Hirru could say anything.. *ping* The hunter's eyes were going wide with the sudden realization, but the floor had more than taught them that nothing should be judg

She finally asked the right question. The beginnings for everyone in this world should have been venturing out for a day, but find that they were trapped by some enigmatic being. This thing, known as a GM or Game Master, had appeared to every single player in this world. No matter where they were on the first floor, they were summoned back to the Town of Beginnings to heed the call of the creator, and soon to be prison warden: Kayaba Akihiko. Hirru would give a sly smirk before continuing on. "That's the thing. That was everyone's beginning, in Aincrad. Everyone should remember

A message? Hirru wanted to take care of issues pertaining to the new floor, and figured that this was one of those requests. He had been wanting to become more active with the supply gathering on the front, but things seemed to take a turn with the 29th floors particular quirk. If no one was constantly at their ramshackle base that they were still working on, then the mobs would easily swarm the main town. They had much to deal with, so any time way would have to be good for.. "Oh.. Baldur." The hunter didn't think twice from there. He saw the 9th floor, and he was already on hi

There was much to take care of and start to do to make this place a semi-safe zone for the front lines and the players that would dare to come up. It would be have to be secure in most ways. They did not need a breach where the mobs could easily get in and harm anyone within. They would need room and board. This building wasn't quite able to accommodate that, but this is what they would have for now until scouts and the others can come back with some useful areas to start setting up checkpoints and better rest stops. Hirru would turn to hear the familiar voice that differed quite from

At last, the final hit was struck upon the foul creature, and they were free to continue on to the next floor. Leaving behind a sole tree to help rebuild the grove, he would follow everyone else. A silent affair, as people would collect their thoughts about the whole situation that had transpired in that dying grove. Would no one stop and talk? No, the stairs were far too narrow to do something like that, especially for the group that was coming through like this. They would all have to continue until the light of the next floor would encourage them and welcome them to a whole new story.

The fight was nearing its end and it was\ beginning to show how much it was effecting everyone. Some were getting too tired to continue, their energy levels had been brought down to the lowest one co\uld go. He was not able to keep them up while keeping them They would be the victors here, but there was something that would be definitely addressed during the \next few days. Quite a bit of strategy and upkeep that should have been done better. Personal issues and more would be addressed. Though more importantly, eve\ryone is going to question Freyd. That was not a feint, or at least,

"I WILL NOT.." \ The words seemed almost \too surreal to hear. There was no way that what he just heard was going on. First, the mad man was dead and now he isn't? Was that a thing that could happen? Hi\s shield was in mid air, ready to give the command for everyone to break their limits and burst through the last bit of health that the boss had. Though, he would stall f\or just this moment, it would only be for that moment that he would get his resolve. Standing there, where he shouldn't have been, was a player with white hair tha\t stood where Freyd had supposedly stood

What do you think of when time stands still? When the world just seems to slow down to the point where even your thoughts don't seem to respond just right. There is something there, but it just doesn't seem to fit just quite right. It's almost like there is something that is pushing between the thoughts and what should be. Was this what the others call 'lag'? Though, that could not quite be what was truly happening. It was almost as if there was a cra/ck that could not be seen. In-between that crack, was only a split second, before it was gone. Ringing from the roar once more. Hir

The vines dug into them all, as they knew that they would. The sting would be felt and the bleed would be seen through everyone, except two. The golden fur that wrapped around the shoulders of Mina and Hirru were there to shoulder the burden put upon them. They would not yield to any barbs nor thorns that would wish to take from them their life's water. Though that did not mean that the others would be in woe either. Yuki was quick to process a heal for them all, but there was still much to take care of. "We're breaking through its waste and filth! Ariel! Take these and keep yourse

The changes that the lone bear was taking seemed to make it more and more a being of the undead. Heck, maybe they were right in the meeting that they would be facing something not alive. Though, that didn't really help them in this run of things. Callisto was rotting as it went and it seemed that the boss' arena was starting to warp and change with it. The earth around them seemed to shift as dark red vines would seem to enwrap themselves around them. They seemed to have quite a bit of razor bit to them, as if they had a form of thorns or such. Though, as everyone moved, it did not seem

Seeing that the barrier was holding true, the hunter would sigh with relief. Though that was only for one short and lonely breathe. There was much work to do from here, if the fates were allowing the use of their shield to him. If only he could bestow that power to everyone, or at least reawaken the fate's armaments of the players that he knew rightfully had them. That way they could fight on par, but that probably wouldn't work out too well. There were two of them that were not in that fight, Yuki and Acanthus. Would they not get the power that the fates could introduce? There was only

Expecting the roar once more, the hunter held his shield up to keep his himself safe, as if the shield could do anything against sound and madness. Although there was no real reason to believe that it would, he could only hope that it would. Though, there was a bigger problem that was now beginning to rear it's ugly head. Quite literally. The sound of quakes and bounding would come closer to the group before the visage of the rotten head became visible from behind the hunter's shield. He was close by to Mina from the last few moments before, so he was fairly away from the others. Though,
