...and that he did. Ryouhei grit his teeth as he felt the daggers pierce through his clothing right into his skin. The pain seared through him like hot magma coursing through his veins. However, he felt another surge of energy similar to the last fight: he had gained another level! He felt even stronger than he was. He grinned and went for a clean stab to the bandit's face.

Ryouhei attempted to dodge, but lost his footing and practically fell onto the knives. Losing even more HP, he was getting enraged at the bandit that stood before him. Gathering all his might, he began a very rapid string of slashes and swipes in an attempt to land at least a single hit on the bandit.

Ryouhei stepped backwards to try and avoid the assault, but the bandit was too clever to fall for his tricks. The bandit sliced through Ryo's armor with both of his sharp daggers, causing him to lose even more HP. Was this it...? Awakened from sleep only to be taken out by a single bandit? No, he couldn't give up. He returned fire, trying to find a single opening in the bandit's defenses...

Ryouhei grinned as he realized this fight was over. His sword became engulfed in a bright blue light as he began to shout as loud as he could. The bandit attempted to dash backwards, but he stepped on his own foot and fell hard to the ground. Ryouhei, still shouting, exclaimed,

This... is... THE END!!

He placed both hands on his hilt and aimed it downwards, ready to stab the bandit and finish this battle. The bandit tried to crawl away, but he was too slow for Ryouhei's sheer rage. His sword stabbed clean through the bandit's heart. He grimaced in pain and grabbed the blade with both hands, trying to escape his death. Ryo let go of the blade, leaving it stabbed into the bandit's chest. He looked at Ryouhei for mercy who looked down upon the bandit with no remorse. Ryo raised a leg and kicked his blade clean out of the bandit, causing him to melt into a shower of blue pixels. He had won, again. But not by much... Finally, another window popped up to show Ryouhei the rewards he earned for defeating the bandit.

As per usual, the Success window appeared, but this time, it featured more than just additional Col.

RESULT: +30 Col, Timeless Defender

Timeless Defender...? A new weapon, eh? And it's a longsword, just my style.

Ryouhei opened his menus and scrolled to the <> tab, equipping his new weapon. It was much shinier than his previous basic weapon, appearing to almost be made of chrome. It felt heavy in his hand and had a really good weight to it. After swinging it around and getting accustomed to the new blade, Ryo sheathed it to his back and continued walking towards his goal.

After walking for a while, Ryouhei reached a location known as <> that had two major paths leading to the settlements of the first floor. After examining a sign at a fork in the road, Ryo continued down the path leading to Horunka Village where he could get some training in cooking. As he continued walking down the dirt road, he heard some growling coming from behind him. He turned to see two wolves looking for their next meal. Ryouhei laughed to himself and pulled out his sword. Aiming at the wolf on the left, he charged in shouting,

Who's next?!

Wolf 1: 5/5 HP

Already feeling the awesome power of his new sword, he hit the wolf harder than he's ever hit an enemy in game before. Upon landing the hit, his blade began to shine with a bright light, confirming his critical hit. With a whimper, the wolf Ryo was fighting regained its footing and pounced, looking to take a bite out of him.

Ryouhei attempted to dodge, but he wasn't quite acclimated to his new sword just yet and that slowed him down. The wolf managed to bite him and get back to the ground. Looking to finish off the injured creature, he went for a guillotine-type slash straight down into the monster's body.

Just as he thought he had missed, Ryouhei's new weapon shone with an orange aura as suddenly his attack mystically connected. Upon quick examination of the weapon's stats, he saw that it made it easier to hit enemies. Pleased with his new weapon, he suddenly became his usual, overconfident self. Reveling in his victory, he neglected the wolf attempting to pounce onto his back.

Ryouhei couldn't quite regain his composure in time and suffered another hit. However, he had gained another level after that last hit and felt like he was able to take on more hits. He placed both hands on the hilt of his blade and raised it above his head. He then performed another "guillotine" move. Deciding that he needed a name for it, he quickly shouted,

Shatter! Taste my justice! Divine... VERDICT!!

Upon shouting the name of his new attack, his weapon began to glow a tint of orange again, and Ryouhei felt as though the sword guided him into his target. The wolf was now visibly injured. Its injuries merely heightened its ferocity and it went straight for a bite to the neck, pouncing from the ground.

Ryouhei lost his footing and completely missed the almost-still wolf. Looking like a fool, he needed some time to get ahold of himself. The wolf took no time in launching another offensive to reduce Ryo's HP to nothing. He realized how much damage he'd taken in this fight and quickly decided that he needed to end this fight.
