[SP - F6] Monster Hunter 2: More Monster Hunting [COMPLETE]


Recommended Posts

Takao exhaled a grunt in frustration - a rare emotion to be shown on his part. Usually his frustration was changed to motivation, and even now it was still motivating him, but he just couldn't find an angle on this plant beast to attack from. The shield of vines was too thick to approach with confidence, and the whipping extremities that threatened to bat him around if he edged too close in an attempt to attack weren't exactly welcoming him with warm and open arms. He decided to take the risk and began advancing toward the body, dodging the new torrents of vines that assaulted him - or tried to - as he managed to edge his way closer and closer.

Takao's risk paid off almost immediately. The Nepent opened its defenses in an attempt to strike him, but instead found itself on the receiving end of the damage. Takao shot forward with an emerald glowing blade, the sharp edge cleaving deep into the beast's side a second time. A red striped wound decorated with white lattice appeared in its wake, signifying the damage that had been dealt. Takao landed with a soft thud behind the beast and ducked to avoid its reactionary vine that swiped overhead in response. He placed one hand on the ground and used it as a pivot point to turn and face the beast before he back pedaled away, his feet expertly avoiding any obstructions on the jungle floor. A smile grew on his face as he watched the health bar fall further and further, stopping just barely above where he estimated the red threshold to be.

The Jungle Nepent unleashed a furious inundation of whipping vines that snapped at him like the jaws of a hungry beast. He opted to retreat to a safer distance for the moment and bide his time before sustaining damage again. He watched on in awe as the jungle plant thrashed around, howling in simulated pain and rage. Its roots allowed it to wander closer, but each time it neared him, Takao continued to a safe distance. He took off behind a tree and used the broken line of sight to confuse the beast, hoping to open it up to another attack. He only needed one more hit to finish it off, and then he could head back to the town and take a well deserved break.

The broken line of sight provided Takao with a pleasant moment of peace. The fatigue of battle was beginning to catch up to him, which meant he needed to end the engagement quickly or else he might get sloppy and start making mistakes. He peeked around the corner of the tree, but realized his mistake very quickly when a vine snapped at the bark of the tree. He pulled himself back around and pressed his back firmly against the trunk, a sharp inhale sounding like a gasp at the sudden surprise. He reaffirmed his grip on the sword and rolled his head over his shoulders, then took off in a sprint. If he was to end it, it wouldn't be done behind the massive jungle tree.

Takao wasn't waiting an opportunity anymore, no - he'd decided to make one. He jumped and slashed through an incoming vine, severing it from the rest of the extremity with the clean cut. He landed and resumed his advance, avoiding the incoming vines through a mixture of skillful dives, tumbles, jumps, and impressive footwork accompanied by precise cuts to keep himself from sustaining damage. He neared the Jungle Nepent very quickly and prepared a sword art in a moment of risk. He stood before it and waited for the sword art to charge, his blade began growing a pale green colour. The low hum and whir instinctively told him that it was ready, and he shot forward upon releasing it. His blade swiped along the broadside of the beast and took the remainder of its health with it, reducing it to nothing by the time Takao landed. He panted and released a long exhale to steady his breathing. The rewards menu was closed quickly, and he began to make his way back to the town. He needed a good meal, a soft bed, and a good few hours of rest.
