[SP-F1] Secret Medicine of the Forest


Recommended Posts

Kirito clicked <> on the quest he had been offered. If his memory served him right, the <> was a strict improvement over his current sword. Taking this quest before any other was a smart move, since it's reward was a long-term investment for the future. "No to go find the Nepent." He said, looking into the woods.

He walked casually, no monsters were ever at the entrance. So he could just enjoy a forest walk for the moment's time. He looked above him, seeing the sun leak through spots in between the brush above him, as the wind sent a gentle breeze across the forest, making the trees blow and bob in the wind slowly. "It's really a shame this whole game is meant to kill me..."

Kirito did question why the game was meant to kill as he walked. Was Kayaba insane? Perhaps he was looking for some form of god-like status. That would make sense, seeing as to what he said during the announcement. "My goal has already been accomplished. To control this world and intervene in it." Saying it aloud, Kirito was able to assume that was Kayaba's goal of SAO. To achieve a god-like state.

He walked a little further and then came to an opening in the woods. It was much darker, and the light must have transitioned while Kirito was thinking to himself. He walked slowly, taking time to take in the field around him. He drew his sword from the sheath at his back and slowly turned 360 degrees, looking all around for any signs of the <>. And as he had hoped, he saw one twenty feet away.

Kirito ran over to it while running the tip of his sword across the ground. All he had to do was swipe up some dirt, blind the creature, and then land a solid hit to start off the battle. But as he ran, he felt a vibration move up his sword arm. Something was... Beneath the ground? In the blink of an eye, a vine launched from below and raced towards Kirito.

Kirito side-stepped as fast as he could to avoid the tendril, it whipped past his face and snapped at the air, originally hoping to have lashed the swordsman. Kirito staggered back slightly from his sudden movement and then regained his foot hold, eyeing the Nepent for another attack.

Kirito quickly took hold of the vine that had lashed at him and he got his sword ready, raising it up and then hacking at the vine. The dull sword didn't cut all the way through, so Kirito kept repeating this pattern, trying to hack into the vine, until with a snap, it was cut off. The Nepent roared and wailed, bringing the tendril back underground.

Kirito: 9/9
