When he felt content in that there were no traps along the walls of the room, he made his way back to the chest that filled its center. Even after having conducted his inspection, he still felt apprehensive about opening it. He felt confident in his search, but he'd felt confident the first time as well. And sure, he could handle the mobs that started to pour into the room if the chest was indeed trapped. At least, presumably, he could. There was still no guarantee there, either.
But, eventually, that nagging got the best of him and he flung the chest wide open, immediately grabbing the staff of his hammer in preparation for what may come after. But when he was pleasantly surprised by the lack of mobs and crimson coating the room, he took a peak inside the vessel. There, waiting for him at its base, was a singular violet shard.

It did seem, though, that the nagging had gotten through to him to at least some peripheral extent. Because as he rounded a corner and came upon yet another suspicious chest room, he couldn't help but feel himself drawn in by it. The mystique, the intrigue, the possibility of fortune. He'd never been a vain sort of person, and felt no tinglies at the sight of a horde of col or gold. But there was something about rare items that really did it for him. And if the last room was a fluke and this one could provide something a tad more tantalizing then, well, maybe it was worth it to check it out.
He gave the room a thorough inspection this time, before even approaching the chest. He walked the entire length of the walls and ran the tips of his fingers along them, feeling for any would be seams or notches that may have tipped him off to the presence of hidden mobs just beyond the veil.

There was a part of him - the more primal side - which seemed to nag at him for doing so. Dive forward and into the fray, it seemed to say. You used to do it all the time, and you turned out just fine. What's the worry? You'll be okay, and keep it together, just like you always have.
But that part of him was a liar. This was uncharted territory, and the only reason he'd managed to come out alive on the other side of so many conflicts prior was due to the hard work and diligence of the prioneers that came before him. The ones that tested the waters, discovered what did or didn't work, and distributed that information throughout the Player base; whether that meant selling it to an Info Broker who held the information ransom, or telling everyone they met to arm them with the knowledge they needed to navigate this damned place without constant anxiety revolving around their mortality.
-
Whatever the case, it had certainly made him a tad more cautious in the matters of attempting crawls like this. There really was no telling what would happen in any given corner of the floating castle Aincrad, on any given day, and what it might mean for him or any of the people he held dear. And if their lifeline - the Teleport Crystals they'd grown so comfortable gambling their mortality against - was now the sort of thing that could be turned on an off on a whim without announcement, it meant that everyone had to be every more careful. Lest they one day find themselves trapped in a room full of mobs they can't handle, with a crystal in their hand that has become worth little more than a paperweight or makeshift weapon for a Martial Arts expert.
It was due to thoughts like these that Bahr had slowed down a bit since the update, and really started taking care when going anywhere or doing anything.
-
Just the bare minimum to make it in a place like this, where he could be locked away at any moment and forced into combat with a gaggle of fearsome mobs. He couldn't even imagine what an encounter like that would have looked like on a lower floor in the same dungeon, where the mobs apparently multiplied in their ferocity and vigor. What if he'd been trapped in a room full of mobs comparable to him in level? He shuddered at the thought. He'd have been minced to bits before he could even use his Teleport Crystal - assuming the room itself didn't have a condition that blocked their efficacy, since apparently that was a thing now.
Or had it always been? If he was being honest, he hadn't used them much prior to the Floor Boss fight, where he discovered that his had been rendered useless. Was that a normal occurrence, of something that only transpired in the most dire of fights?
-
He supposed that, to at least some extent, it was indeed a testament to his ability when it came to matters of forethought and planning. Not that he wanted to toot his own horn or anything, but there was no telling how long he would have been locked in that combat if not for the ability to swap some of his stats around on a whim. In the end, however, it was something that most any Player could probably do at this point. It wasn't as though the Terra Firma, which he had apparently earned the Skill from, was a particularly tough opponent. Sure, it seemed scary at first glance, but countless other Players had bested the beast before him, and he was sure that countless had done the same after the fact. What he'd pulled off in that room wasn't anything special. If anything, it was just what had come to be expect in SAO.

There were only four remaining, and they were lined up perfectly for a strike. It just so happened that as soon as they arranged themselves in the perfect assortment to get thwacked, the cooldown for a Sword Art he'd issued earlier manifested its conclusion. The moment it was ready, he let it rip once more. Spinning on his heel with the hammer held outward like a Beyblade on crack, he allowed himself to dreidel his way right into the lot of them. One after another, they met with the business end of Dawn's Demise. And, one after another, they disintegrated into a shimmering assortment of azure bulbous shards.
While it was satisfying to see them fall, he knew that he'd been lucky. A few more undue misses, and he would have been in trouble. He thanked his lucky stars that he'd had the where with all to look at his stats ahead of time and arrange a game plan for exactly this sort of scenario.

Nothing happens. -
"An axe, huh?" he inquired quietly as his mismatched eyes inspected the instrument. It was puny and light when compared to his weapon, and all of his natural senses were screeching at him that if the sword hadn't even left a dent, there was no way such a feeble device would fare better. But he trusted his companion and, in a display of that trust, cast Dawn's Demise back into his inventory and poised the axe to strike. "I'm willing to give it a shot, if nothing else."
A single strike was all it took.
The sharp steel of the head's blade carved through the thick trunk of the nearest tree like a razor through paper. An expulsion of air from the site of impact accompanied the deafening crack it let loose, a rapid succession of smaller cracks following shortly thereafter in a building cacophony until it reached its crescendo at the apex of the monolith's pitch. Then, the overgrown plant fell, casting white powder from its evergreen branches before colliding into the ground with a final, mighty thud. The entire event had been so shockingly loud that the silence that followed almost seemed louder. Unnerving and awkward.
"... Well, you know what they say," he quipped in brisk bewilderment. "If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, our illegal logging campaign is a success."
"Still, I hadn't expect a single swing to do the trick. Makes all my flailing with my sword a minute ago look even sillier, in retrospect. Just what the hell did you make that axe out of?"

"Yeah, the shadows did kill me."
Hearing the utterance sent a chill throughout his entire body in protest against the logical conclusion that she was obviously there, right in front of him, safe and sound. While he consciously knew it, there was something so unnerving in the most primal sense, hearing that proclamation. He could feel his eyes widen and his breathing hitch as the words rolled around in his head, conflicting everything he could see and feel and hear. For whatever reason, she had died. And lived. And now here she was, in front of him, saying as much like it was a simple matter of fact. Just another consequence of living in this damned prison they'd come to call home.
And, in a certain sense, he supposed it was.
"I don't... understand," he finally admitted, cocking his head to the side a tad while his eyebrows furrowed with worry. "None of it makes sense. I always knew that the Floor Bosses were a force to be reckoned with, but I had no idea their influence could extend beyond the confines of their chamber." Though, perhaps it was his own foolishness, or lack of foresight, which had tricked him into believing so. "The entire situation feels foggy, and confusing, and wrong."
But she was alive. And he was thankful for that.
With the revelation finally sinking in that they were both somehow okay, he allowed himself to let loose that breath he'd been holding back, and do what he could to steady his mind and body. He wasn't even sure what he could do, or say, that would make the situation feel more right. But as long as they were both there, breathing, it was about as right as it could get in Aincrad.
"I'm so happy you're okay."

Sure is a busy one, today, Bahr caught himself thinking as the chime of bells attached to his front door heralded the arrival of yet another customer. While the Crusty Bahrnacle had seen steady business once upon a time, its traffic had atrophied in recent months as a result of his preparations for the most recent Floor Boss. But, as it had been slain, he'd found himself with a sum of spare time on his hands. Other Players, too, it seemed, had minutes to spare. The system update likely had people scouring whatever shops they could find for gear, as well.
But as his singular exposed eye fell upon the man who now stood in the foyer of his shop, he witnessed something he hadn't in quite a while. The boy was wearing starter gear, as though he'd only recently descended into Aincrad. There were stranger sights, to be sure, but it hitched Bahr's breath in his throat as he gazed upon the newcomer.
"Yeah, I'm here," he muttered, fetching a standard armor from one of the shelves behind his counter. "You look awfully fragile. Something like this might trend your survivability chance out there upward - along with your general sense of fashion." He presented the cloak by placing it on the counter, motioning for the youth to seize it.
"Take it. First one's a freebie."
-
This was getting to a point that it was making Bahr uncomfortable. Something about the update had done something to the targeting algorithm - or, at the very least, it felt that way. He just wasn't hitting things with the same reliability that he once had. Luckily, in his arsenal of brand new Skills that had come with the update, he'd found something that seemed to be a good fit for just such a situation. He was aware that his evasion was quite a bit higher than his accuracy at this point, and seeing as these things couldn't really hurt him even if they tried, he didn't need to worry so much about being hit. Assault Mode was made for situations like these, and it would allow him the leverage he needed to bust out against these fools.
He activated it, and let the axe do the rest of the work. In an instant, three of his foes were annihilated. And, while he took more hits than he may have otherwise, he still felt content in their destruction.

"That all you got?" he heard himself mutter, tone crossed with annoyance and disbelief. While it was a relief that he wasn't going to flat out die at the hands of these proverbial goblins, it was a tad irksome that he now had to deal with them. That, and the fact that he had been so cautious going in. Had he known that the first level was going to present such easy mobs to him, he wouldn't have bothered being so slow at first. He would have picked up the pace and explored more at a faster rate. It was likely he would have already been done with this room and moving on by now.
But the time for regret was for after he'd dispatched them. Watching another mob get vaporized under the weight of his hammer did wonders to assuage Bahr's chagrin, but there was still a gaggle of them remaining that was much larger than anything else he'd solo'd in quite a while.

No sooner had his exit collapsed than the walls of the chamber began shifting. One by one, lumbering masses of obsidian began shuffling out from previously concealed cavities behind the wall. Far more than Bahr could have anticipated. In an instant he found himself trapped and surrounded, with nobody but himself to blame. And while he wanted to use a Teleport Crystal, he knew he wouldn't have the chance unless he cleared some of them out first.
So he summoned Dawn's Demise and cracked it forward, clocking two of the mobs and sending them spiraling into oblivion instantaneously. The rest descended upon him shortly thereafter, but he found the damage that they dealt to be a paltry sum in comparison to what he'd feared. Though it was still uncomfortable to be being essentially manhandled by the monsters, Bahr found that his health was dwindling at a comfortably slow rate, and that he had plenty of time to turn the tide of the battle.

In a blur and only seconds after he'd reached the door, it was flung open from the other side, revealing the attractive blonde who lived within as she stumbled through the threshold toward him. He caught her slimmer frame between his arms and righted her, his fingers curling around her tightly as though to hold her securely as well as make sure she was real. Those mismatched eyes, wide with worry, studied her features in a frenzy. First, to ensure that she was, indeed, Lessa. Second, that ensure she was okay. Excitement and bewilderment and fear all rode on his visage as he inspected her, instinctively pulling her closer until she'd been tugged into an full embrace, a palm cradling her neck pushing her cheek against his chest. For the first time since he'd woke, his breathing started to steady.
"Oh thank god," finally made it past his lips, held back for fear that seeing her had only been an illusion of some trick of the mind. "It said it killed you."
Before he had time to explain himself, and before she had time to respond, he tugged her away from his torso and planted his lips against hers. The long, drawn out kiss was not so soft as their usual exchanges. This was harsh, swift, and desperate. A plea to feel her essence within him as he did now around him. To be consumed by that feeling like he had been the tides of dark. And no matter how much he got, it seemed he wouldn't get his fill. Eventually, he had to force himself to withdraw and take a breath.
"Did it hurt you?" he questioned, eyes looking her over once more. There didn't appear to be a scratch on her. "The Shadow, I mean. It said it killed you. Did it hurt you?"

Slowly, he strode toward the vessel, eyeing it skeptically as it swelled in size from his approach. While he'd never heard of a trapped chest in Sword Art Online, there wasn't anything wrong with being cautious. After all, it was a bit odd, the manner in which it was placed. Typically one might fight a chest tucked away behind a thicket row in a forest, or the deepest darkest trenches of a cave. Not out in the open, in the center of a room, presented in all its luscious temptation, as though beckoning Players to step forth and see for themselves the treasures it held within.
There was a lock on the chest. But, to Bahr's surprise, his fingers worked nimbly to pick the lock and cast it aside, before grasping the edges of the lid and slowly hoisting it up. To his surprise, there was nothing within. What was more, the room became tinged red, and the entrance from whence he came shut. He was locked in.

Where before he felt he had room for a certain sort of elegance and form, now he felt boxed into a version of combat completely foreign to him. Slow, clunky, and messy. Though some would argue that was the way he fought before, he'd come to appreciate a more refined art of swordplay the more experienced he became. Now he was back to square one. It was possible that, with time, he'd come to appreciate the nuance of the weapon and its weight, and perhaps even devise a way to use it as elegantly as he had once wielded his blade. The simple fact of the matter was, he didn't want to.
So lost in his chagrin was Bahr that he almost hadn't realized he'd reached a dead end. When had that happened? He'd only been going straight, right?
Wait a second. There was a chest there. A welcome sight after having spent so much time walking aimlessly in the dark without so much as a pebble to call a landmark.

If things did take a turn for the worse, he had options for getting himself out. He had plenty of health and power to boot, but in the worst case scenario, he would be able to make an escape so long as he could reach into his coat pocket. All he had to do was keep his wits about him, play it safe, keep his distance if something appeared, and be prepared to pull out. A bit more cautious than he was used to playing it, but now wasn't the time to get foolhardy and make assumptions about his survivability. Everything was still up in the air - including whether or not he could even wield the new hammer the system had bestowed upon him.
What a stupid goddamn occurrence, too. Had he not been fearing for Lessa's life, he'd never have swapped his beautiful sword for such an ugly hunk of metal.
