Crozeph 0 Posted February 4, 2015 Author #21 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Crozeph saw himself standing in front of a counter inside of a convenience store. For a moment it felt real as if he's outside SAO now "looks like I'm having nightmares again" he said. Crozeph then sat on a chair as he waits for customers to pay the food they bought, it was pretty much the only job he can do along with school plus having gaming magazines beside him lessens the boredom. Crozeph read through it and saw the launch date of SAO after weeks of beta-testing "I'm reading an old issue" he said. Crozeph remembered his friend as he sees the name of her father "one of the people who helped on making the nerve gear" he said. Crozeph then heard a snapping sound as if someone stepped on a couple of twigs. As soon as he reacted, everything around him shattered and this made him close his eyes "damn it, I'm dreaming" he said. Crozeph opened his eyes and saw himself back on SAO "someone's nearby" he said clutching the hilt of his sword and keeping still. Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Crozeph 0 Posted February 4, 2015 Author #22 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Crozeph lied down holding the hilt of his sword and his head still leaning on a tree. He heard voices and it sounded like there were two of them, players who are talking about something "are you sure you saw that bastard who wears a black cloak?" one of them said before spitting on the ground "yes he was here a while ago and in fact, he looted a powerful monster with some kind of coat" the other one said. Crozeph let out a sigh of dismay "to be honest, these people are more annoying than those insects" he mumbled. Crozeph stood up and revealed himself to the two players "if you're looking for the boy I think he went east of here" he told them. Crozeph recognized one of the two, the person whom he humiliated back on Floor one before running into one of his friends. The man recognized him quick "do you take us for fools brat?" he said giving Crozeph and angry look. Crozeph replied in a calm, simple manner "yes" he told them. The man turned red in anger "why you..." the man was interrupted by his companion "what level are you boy? you seem high-leveled with that attitude" he asked Crozeph. Crozeph replied with a shrug "I'm high enough to defend myself" he said. The man chuckled upon hearing his reply and pulled out his axe behind him "move back, this boy is my prey" he said raising his axe "I don't want trouble" Crozeph said. The man grinned before swinging his axe down which Crozeph dodged "I do want trouble kid" he told Crozeph who now unsheathed his sword but faced it's sharp-edge on him "killing you is not on top of my list, I'll just have to make you see stars" he replied. battle note: Crozeph will aim to knock the player down. A successful roll will be considered a point to knock down the player and a natural roll of 9 and 10 will instantly knock him out, however the player will still deal damage Armored Player 0/5 deals 7 damage and negates knockdown points on natural roll of 10 Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Crozeph 0 Posted February 5, 2015 Author #23 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Crozeph kept the sharp edge of his sword faced towards him and his eyes fixated on the armored man who is towering over him "strong but hot-headed" he thought "our stats are complete opposites so I better make good use of my spee..." the man charged and tried to attack Crozeph by swinging his two-handed axe at him "let's see how fast this weapon can go" he thought. Crozeph knew that a solid hit from the axe could cause a good amount of damage to him "gotta be careful" he said. Crozeph saw the axe going from his right aimed at his neck but instead of dodging he moved to his left still at the line of attack of the axe "dead in one hit" the armored player said but his eyes widened when Crozeph ducked with ease dodging his axe "what the?" the player tried to move his axe but the strength he put on his swing was too much that he can't stop it. Crozeph moved in and saw two opening on the player's attack "aim for the gaps of the armor" he said. Crozeph slashed at the player's right shoulder landing a successful attack and finished it off with a kick on the chest. The player slammed on a tree on his back and almost lost gripped of the axe "I see, quite an agile player" he told Crozeph who kept quiet and his eyes glaring at the player "I hate eyes like those" he said raising his axe again for another swing.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 6, 2015 Author #24 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Crozeph stood still as the player charged at him again "he won't be able to aim that much with that wound on his shoulder" he thought. Crozeph aimed at the gap on the breastplate and the arms "you can't move if your breastplate and shoulder guard are one" he thought. Crozeph saw the axe now swinging downwards and aimed at his shoulder this time "retaliation? last second reactions are effective on this player" he said. Crozeph moved sideways dodging the axe again by a few inches tearing a piece of his cloak "now for the counter!" Crozeph moved closer and this time aimed for the player's left shoulder but as soon as he moved in, the player raised his arm to block Crozeph attack "strong but not foolish" Crozeph thought "but like I said last second reactions..." Crozeph spun around and slashed at the back of the player's right knee making him let out a scream of agony. Crozeph jumped back after attacking and raising his sword as a shield "you're quite a nuisance with that speed" the player said "but I'm pretty sure you know one of the weaknesses of being a speed freak" he told Crozeph.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 9, 2015 Author #25 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 The man began to stand still and his eyes on Crozeph "how'd you like to be killed alone?" he asked him. Crozeph just shrugged "fine by me, I sure some people will cry over my coffin outside the game" he said. Crozeph already knew what the man is talking about "if you know where point B is, speed may become worthless" he thought "if he knows where I'm going, I'm pretty much going to be launched in the air with that axe" he added. Crozeph charged at him again "but I'm quite a deceiver in my own way" he thought. Crozeph continued charging towards him, sword now raised just above his shoulder. The man remained still as he charges in "sudden change of direction, not gonna work again boy" he thought. Crozeph attacked him by slashing horizontally on his armor "here it is!" the man made an upward attack with his axe which Crozeph dodged with ease by jumping back then moved in again to try another attack "you're dead" the man said who is now bringing his axe down aimed at Crozeph's head. Crozeph made a grin at the sight of the axe going down on him "too obvious" he said. The man's eyes widened "this brat!" he yelled. Crozeph dodged the axe again by an inch cutting a few ends of his hair then raised his sword hitting the jaw of the man launching him a few inches off the ground and with a powerful kick to finish him off. The man landed on the grass with a loud thud, mouth open and completely dazed. Crozeph sheathed his sword and turned his eyes on the other one "asking for a death wish? I'll be using the sharp edge on you if you insist" he said glaring at him. The other player felt cold sweat on his sideburns "n-nope, I'll be leaving now with this guy" he said pulling the stunned friend with him. Crozeph watched as they slowly disappeared in the woods and let out a deep sigh afterwards. Crozeph turned his head, he could hear bees nearby "finally my jar of luck is getting loaded again" he said.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author #26 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Crozeph followed the sound and saw two bees hovering at something then with a sudden turn of events they were cut in half and shattered to pieces of data. Crozeph stood in awe at what he saw "two birds with one...I mean two bees with one stone" he said nodding in approval. After a few seconds a bear stood towering over him. Crozeph saw a rather large hive behind the bear that he thinks he can fit in there "I didn't know that Aincrad has an ecosystem, more like "kill all players, we bro mobs stick together" he said. The bear replied with a loud roar almost pushing Crozeph back "not nice" he said pulling out his sword "I'm trying to be nice here" he added glaring at the bear who has red eyes and large teeth.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author #27 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Crozeph quickly took a step forward and slashed at the bear but it moved back with ease and dodge his attack well "not bad bear" he said then taking a step forward trying another attack which the bear dodge again by moving back. Crozeph kept his eyes on the claws and as soon as the bear raised its two giant claws, Crozeph jumped back and almost got it by its right claw "that was clo..." Crozeph then ducked and rolled backward as the bear used its left claw to do a follow up attack "this will be fun, as long as I don't enter the yellow zone" he said before standing up and raising his sword as a shield. The bear let out a load roar again as a reply to what he said "yes I know you want to kill me, funny thing is I want to kill you too" he said calmly with a grin on his face.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author #28 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Crozeph kept his sword's position just above his chest and it's tip facing the bear while gripping it with his left hand. After letting out a deafening roar it quickly ran towards Crozeph with its mouth open, it's teeth shown "I can get eaten in just two bites" he said. Crozeph answered by charging at the bear too. Two then attack each other with Crozeph aiming his attack on the bear's right side and the bear wanting to bite his head off. As soon as the bear lowered its head to attack, Crozeph quickly spun around and buried his sword on it's side making the bear raise its head and bring out a thunderous roar. Crozeph then twisted his sword and pushed it upward before pulling it off and jumping back a few feet avoiding a follow attack from the bear "that went well" he thought.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 10, 2015 Author #29 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 The bear turned around and glared at Crozeph with its red eyes, flexing it paws making the claws move. Crozeph has been growing tired of waiting for it to attack "I guess I'll be taking this shot first" he said. Crozeph dashed towards the bear and tried to cripple with by cutting through its left foot. The bear raised its leg as soon as Crozeph slashed at it, dodging his attack completely. Crozeph almost lost balance as his attack failed miserably if he didn't reacted fast enough to put his foot forward stopping him from falling down. As he turned his head he saw the left claw of the bear going straight to his shoulder "fall down Crozeph, fall down" he thought. Crozeph took a step back and purposely lost his balance and luckily dodges the attack of the bear. He quickly rolled away from it and stood up, heart beating fast as his adrenaline kicked in "never felt better with this kind of battle" he said while the bear is growling at him.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 11, 2015 Author #30 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Crozeph quickly raised his shield after standing up and the bear growls louder. Crozeph charged at it again, his sword at his left hand aiming at its neck this time trying to finish it off quickly "it might attract another one of its kind, that would be a problem" he thought. Crozeph jumped as soon as he got near the bear who is also trying to hit him with its right claw "don't miss Crozeph, it'll hurt your feelings if you miss again" he said. The two landed a successful blow at the same time with Crozeph leaving a deep, red cut at its neck and him wounded on his right side, shoulder and a cut on his right cheek. Crozeph landed on the ground rolling while the bear fell straight to the ground groaning "that's gonna leave a mark" he said groaning too as he touches the wound on his side "not what I expected but at least I didn't miss" he added.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 11, 2015 Author #31 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Crozeph staggered as he stood up after taking a lethal blow from the bear who is still lying down on the grass, stunned momentarily. Crozeph picked up his sword and tried to raise it but fell to his knees as soon as he took a step "I think I broke something, where is my battle healing when I need it" he said. Crozeph knew he won't be breaking anything inside him but the pain is real "all right I just got to..." Crozeph quickly ran forward and fell face first on the ground with his sword aimed at the bear's arm. The bear tried to stand up also moving his arm and dodging Crozeph's desperate attack. The bear also tried but missed as it tries to gather its wits after getting wounded. "I'm gonna end this before he ends me" he said using his sword to stand straight.

Crozeph raised his sword and charged at the bear. The bear let out a growl before answering with a charge also. Crozeph pointed his sword downward, ready to cut it in half while the claws of the bear are both aimed at his head. As they soon run into each other, Crozeph's sword and the bear right claw met, grating at each other creating a faint screeching sound. "Not done yet!" he yelled, Crozeph spun to his right gaining a good distance and with raised his sword slashing at its body. After a few seconds the bear shattered into bits of data leaving only Crozeph and the beehive as big as him "all for this honey" he said before falling down on the ground.

The bee hive is still there and untouched. Crozeph then stood up, still staggering but managed to keep himself straight. He walked towards the hive and opened it, hoping to find something aat least after all the trouble he went into "not that I want it, a little reward would be nice" he thought. As he dig deeper to the hive and find nothing, Crozeph fell on his back again with a sign of dismay on his face. [iD: 9460] LD: [13] no loot Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Crozeph 0 Posted February 11, 2015 Author #34 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Crozeph then caught scent of something again "another one not far from here" he said. Crozeph stood up an looked in front of him. Another bee hive is seen just below the bushes and it seems to have touched "maybe that one has been mauled by that bear" he said. Crozeph dipped his finger on the honey and tasted it before going to the other hive. Crozeph knelt down as he got close to it and opened it, hopefully finding something useful rather than failing like the other one a while ago. After a few minutes Crozeph just dipped his finger again on the honey "at least it tastes nice" he said while sitting in front of the hive.

Crozeph 0 Posted February 11, 2015 Author #35 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Crozeph stood up after a few minutes of eating the honey in front of him. "I've been getting sidetracked a lot lately, at this rate the quest won't be over quickly" he said. Crozeph scratched his head, a lot of time has been wasted by him on things not related to his quest "first that troublesome bee who flattened me a couple of times on the ground" he said while rubbing his chin and looking back at what happened a while ago "then the two insects with one I swatted because of the annoyance he gave me" Crozeph then turned his eyes on the hive "and just a while ago I almost got killed by a bear who thought I'll be taking its honey, which I did anyway" he said. Crozeph sighed at what he remembered "the bear also killed the mob I've been following earlier, maybe" he said. Crozeph stared sky for a few seconds, thinking of a plan when he heard another loud buzzing behind him "another one of those bees again" Crozeph turned around and remained still for a few seconds then grinned "look what we have here" he said. Crozeph saw it, larger than any bee he has encountered, it's red eyes gleaming in anticipation of killing him and Crozeph trying to contain the excitement "looks like you can't wait for me anymore my queen" he said. Crozeph unsheathed his sword and pointed it at the mob "where have you been?" he said smiling.

Crozeph used his sword as a shield to its attack. "All right I ate your snack, no need to go all out this fast" he said as the Wasp Queen pushed him back with ease. Crozeph tumbled down and rolled backwards slamming his back on a tree. Crozeph felt his breath thin out at the impact of hitting a tree and failing to avoid the Wasp's attack "that's some kind of matriarchal attack" he said coughing. The Wasp Queen charged at him again at full speed, it's huge body giving Crozeph a hard time to attack successfully, add to it the stinger that seemed to be unstoppable "ok, gather your wits Crozeph and deal a good damage on it" he said standing up and raising his sword.

The Wasp then tried to stab Crozeph with it's stinger "no backing down, full speed" he said before charging also at a short distance. The Wasp successfully landed an attack as it grazed Crozeph's right arm, from hand to shoulder but it seems Crozeph did it on purpose "this is a good distance" he said.

Crozeph made an upward slash while the sword is still buried on the Wasp's side wounding it up to its's head which caused for it to fall on the ground, wings still struggling to flutter.

The Wasp then began fluttering its wounding wings creating a strong wind pushing downwards "that annoying move again" Crozeph said before rolling away but the area of the wind was wide enough to not let him escape.

Crozeph suddenly felt the ground shake and then a sudden explosion sent him back making him roll uncontrollably and slam at the tree beside him.
