Wulfrin

Wulfrin continued to circle Uso-Tsuki, contemplating his next move. Judging by the HP bar, Wulfrin had one, maybe two hits left in order to fell him. Each second he continued to watch the bar, it continued to drop lower and lower. The effects were setting in and Icingdeath was living up to its name. Wulfrin pressed up closer to the ice sculpture that was once Uso-Tsuki, his breath a fine mist that slowly rolled from his mouth. "How does it feel?" Wulfrin asked his frozen prey. "The icy prison you find yourself in represents the future before you." Wulfrin swung his blade towards the

Icy mist began to pour from Icingdeath's blade. Could it be sensing the gravity of the situation, or was it just trying to remind him that Frozen Hide had recharged? It was hard to tell. Wulfrin began to move in pace with Uso-Tsuki. His battle healing was helping a bit, but he knew the fight couldn't go on forever. Instead he focused on matching the stride and gate of Uso-Tsuki. The Usurper vs The Passing Hero, a tense stare down between two deadly opponents. "I could ask you the same thing," Wulfrin scowled as he continued to eye Uso-Tsuki. "Tell me. Have you ever heard of Icingdeath?"

"Red and Black is the color scheme," Wulfrin replied to star's question. "We'd prefer if you were in a suit, but understand if you cant get one. Location will be in the resort area." Wulfrin then sat back and observed his two closest friends in the floating castle enter into a discussion. He let out a sigh. Wulfrin felt bad putting invitations off on the two of them, but at this point it was either that or he would have just dumped a whole bunch of col on way too many spots. Wulfrin's interest was peaked at the mention of the meeting. He knew that Freyd had been scouting the labyrinth, bu

"Well that's good," Wulfrin smirked. He was getting under Uso-Tsuki's skin whether he wanted to admit it or not. "Though I'm surprised you're letting him live. Given your track record I would have thought you would have killed him. Maybe at best kicked him to the curb." Wulfrin stood up from the attack with a smile. He was not going to give this mob the satisfaction of seeing him in pain. Worst case scenario, burn a crystal. You can stay in this fight. If that was his best, you have little to fear. Wulfrin centered himself. He took a deep breath before every muscle in his virtual body ten

"Not a fan of the whole war thing," Wulfrin scoffed as he prepared another attack. "I'm more of a only swing the sword when necessary kind of guy. Honestly had my schedule not been free, we'd probably not be having this conversation." Wulfrin charged at Uso-Tsuki with the sword art he had picked up from defeating The Monkey King. This art was designed to smash through armor, creating weak spots that Wulfrin could exploit for more damage. Uso-Tsuki however had other plans. With unexpected precision, Wulfrin found his blade parried to the side harmlessly. This caused Wulfrin to stumble a bi

"Well..." Wulfrin said with a grin as he lined up a shot. "Let's just say some players got creative." Wulfrin struck the small white ball with moderate force and precision. With a clever bank of the wall, the ball sailed into the adjacent corridor where the sound of it clinking around in a tight space could be heard. Wulfrin gave a fist bump before gesturing Ciela to follow. "Truth is," He continued as he picked his ball up from a small hole left by a missing brick in the floor. "This quest requires you to scour this massive maze for two minotaurs and kill them. Unfortunately just wa

"Also means we entered the maze from the north," Wulfrin said as he lined up his next shot. "I'm good with doubling back and taking another route. Besides not like we don't have something to make the walk interesting. Lord knows our tag a long ain't much of a talker." *PWAK!* Wulfrin placed his ball in the hole Yona had landed hers. He looked a bit upset as he picked up their balls from their make shift hole. He made his way back to Yona and tossed her one. "I guess that's a three for me," He sighed as he started back the way they had come from. "Though I'd say it's a bit unfair

Wulfrin focused on his enemy trying to predict its movements. Once he had found an opening he lunged forward attempting to slow the Slime King's attacks. Unfortunately, his jelly highness seemed to have expected Wulfrin's attack. With unnatural body movements only possible with a hyper malleable form, The Slime King morphed around Wulfrin's blade causing it and its wielder to pass through the boss harmlessly. On the other side, Wulfrin slipped on a puddle of the green gelatin. He stumbled for a minute before righting himself. "Damn," Wulfrin said as he readied another attack. "Slippery ba

"Right," Wulfrin said sarcastically as his frozen armor returned to its misty form. "Because the world where you rule with fear and tyranny is just the perfect one for the people to live in." Wulfrin rushed in with his sword art glowing. His eyes narrowed on Uso-Tsuki's midsection. Time seemed to slow for Wulfrin as <<Concentration>> kicked in. It felt odd calling on the gift from his Gemini. It was a skill that had little use for him as of late, but the fight here was a return to basics. Uso-Tsuki was negating Wulfrin's Accuracy bonuses somehow, so alternative means were need

"Well," Wulfrin smirked as he held his blade at the ready. "You were supposed to be a side project today. I've grown in combat capabilities significantly since we last crossed blades." Standing in the darkness, Wulfrin was having to rely heavily on his Night Vision mod. His previous knowledge of how both The Gemini and Freyd manipulated the shadows, was not comforting in this moment. If he and the Gemini were to cross blades here, they would have the homefield advantage. Something was bugging Wulfrin though. When compared to his previous encounter, this Gemini seemed more bloodthirsty. Th

A simple, yet respectful golf clap came from Wulfrin as he admired the shot. "Wonderful shot," Wulfrin added as he began moving deeper into the maze. "Don't you agree Larbrook?" Wulfrin looked back to their companion that was accompanying them. Larbrook looked less than pleased with the duos antics. An angry huff was all the two recieved. "No need to be such a buzz kill bud," Wulfrin said lining up his next shot. *PLACK!* Wulfrin had lined up his shot in such a way that he had a clear line of sight to the makeshift "hole". The shot however was interrupted midflight by a figure

"At the moment?" Wulfrin strained against the Helldusk Spawn. "He seems pretty intent on killing me!" Wulfrin exited the bladelock with the Helldusk Spawn and took a very brief moment to examine the situation. Okay. He thought to himself. The girls managed to trip some kind of hidden boss. This thing is here and being an absolute nuisance. And then there is my incredibly low stamina pool. I've got maybe two strikes left in me. I'll need to buy some time. Wulfrin's blade began to glow with the vibrant light of a sword art. Once the mama boar was brought in range, he let his blade fly.

"Stand down!" Wulfrin commanded Uso-Tsuki. "Your attempts at the Chief's life are over! I'll be taking you in!" Wulfrin rushed Uso-Tsuki in an attempt to draw hate from the lieutenant. Unfortunately, Uso-Tsuki seemed ready for his attack as he effortlessly dodged Wulfrin's strike. Wulfrin knew from that moment, that this fight was going to be a tough one. He was attempting to start off with a stun to get some uncontested hits in, but that plan soon fell a part. Quickly he pivoted to defense. He readied his blade to counter his opponent. As if on command, the icy mist surrounding him harde

"How kind Rai," Wulfrin said as he took aim at the remaining flying monkey. "You left one for me. Very thoughtful of you." Wulfrin leapt into the air with his sword art glowing a vibrant emerald. With one well placed strike, Wulfrin watched as the monkey froze over from the effects if Icingdeath. The sad part was, he wouldn't get the chance to follow it up with anything. The now icy statue of a flying monkey lost all its lift an fell with the full force of gravity. Once it hit the ground, it shattered into a million tiny icy pieces that melted away in the noon day sun. "Well then," W

Wulfrin's frustrations came to a head when Freyd managed to fish up their prey in one try. The added taunting only managed to act like salt in a wound. Before the Lurker had even planted its webbed feet on the shore, Wulfrin and Solaris were in motion. They rushed the collection of mobs like a well oiled machine. Solaris went for the Lurker's head, while Wulfrin swung his blade in a wide arc catching all of them in his fury. The frigid mists of Icingdeath solidified around the Lurker leaving a nice and large ice cube for his companions to take advantage of. The other fish? Well they wer e

"Solaris," Wulfrin said turning his gaze to the sky. "Find me the Lieutenant. We need to make sure Uso-Tsuki hasn't knocked him out of the fight." Solaris immediately took off to the south. Wulfrin turned to the remaining honor guard and eyed them intently. He wasn't keen to just up and leave his employer, but he had no choice but to trust his guard. "Don't let my efforts go to waste," Wulfrin ordered. "I'll be back either with Uso-Tsuki alive, or proof of his defeat. Keep the Chief protected until then." Wulfrin with his eyes trailing off towards the sky occasionally, charged o

"I'll find him don't worry," Wulfrin said standing up to survey the crowd of people. "My concern right now is the people." Wulfrin was scanning the people from his position up on the raised dias. He wanted to make doubly sure there wasn't anyone else going to attempt to rush the chief. He didn't want to admit it out loud, but as a player he was at a sever disadvantage even with his relatively high stats for the quest. He had used up almost half of his energy meter in that encounter. I need to be at my peak when I go up against Uso-Tsuki. Otherwise I might be screwed. Slowly search at firs

Two orders back to back! Today was going to be a busy one. After reviewing both orders and assuring the patrons it wouldn't be long, Wulfrin set to work on their commissions. The first was simple, just a fusion of two items. After just a few moments, Wulfrin returned to his makeshift counter with the heavy armor. "Alright Zajcica," He said presenting the item. "Got your armor ready. May it protect you in the battles to come." The smith set back to work on the more involved process. Surprisingly he didn't have any Straight Sword blanks, and odd problem considering that was his preferr

Wulfrin was content to just watch the girls complete their tasks. He found a bit of entertainment watching their moves and making mental notes in the event they would ask him for advice, his inner teacher coming out a bit. Miryu, your attacks are all over the place. Try and center yourself. Power doesn't mean anything if you can't hit. Alminia, you're too rigid. The blade should feel like an extension of your own form. Lighten up a bit and visualize the strike you want to make. Kylissia, you are too loose. Utilize your heavy armor. Be the impenatrable wall. All of these critiques filled his mi

Wulfrin simply sighed as he nonchalantly approached his defeated foe, his icy exterior fading back into mists around his blade. At this point his enemy was doing nothing more than his routine lines provided to him by his programmer. "You say Uso-Tsuki could have offered more," Wulfrin said as he prepared to deliver the final blow. "If that was the case, he wouldn't have sent you. If you're the best he can offer, I think I'm better off without him." One rapid upwards arc of a slash was all it took. As the light of his sword art faded, Purotekuta burst into an array of fractal lights j

Wulfrin grabbed Purotekuta by his robe and tossed him into the air. The venom in his voice had stung. These people fought for a peace found only in tyranny and fear, two things Wulfrin absolutely detested. With the combined force of all his moral stances, Wulfrin soared into the air after his quarry. He unleashed brutal blow after brutal blow before sending his foe rocketing towards the ground. Nova Ascension was a powerful art he only pulled out against dangerous foes. This was an excaption. "Your boss," Wulfrin said as he stepped towards the small crater his foe lay in. "He wants nothin
