I don't want to encumber myself, meaning I can't wear a shield. As such, getting this skill early so I can access the Meteor Break Sword Art later is the best course of action. What about you?" He asks the other player while revealling his intentions for doing this quest. before charging at the rock again.ID:35685...And his punch goes just wide. Almost a hit, but no dice.

"Currently, I am doing the quest to get that skill as well... but I'm uninterested in any of that sword art. I just want the skill points that will be provided to me by the end of this along with the ability to enter that cave because I really need to gather some materials in there." Blue finished. It was a rather long sentence and he really needed some action right now.Blue, without another word, charged forward with a sudden burst of speed. His smiled turned into a very big grin when he managed to once again cut the boulder's health down by a bit... but a bit is enough to say that they were almost done.

Greg Baxen 0 Posted October 21, 2015 Author #43 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Greg thought about this a bit. Did he actually remember to visit the quest-giver? He thought to question him on this. "You DID remember to visit the quest-giver, right?" Greg asks. It made him suspicious, and he thought that maybe the other player had forgotten, due to the fact that he didn't know it was fists-only. Shaking these thoughts off for a bit, he charges towards the rock.ID: 35699BD 3: Failure.Greg's punch goes wide, due to his distraction on these thoughts. Realizing this, he grimaces. Returning to his previous thoughts, he speaks again. "I'm thinking you may have forgotten to get the quest. Hence why you didn't know that we couldn't use our weapons to break this rock." He says.Greg Baxen: 24/24 HP, 0/7 EN.Boulder: 15/50 HP. Edited October 21, 2015 by Greg Baxen Link to post Share on other sites

He was quite annoyed that the other player thought he would be stupid enough not to accept the quest. Blue smiled, trying to be patient with the lower-leveled player. With a smooth movement, he pointed at his face which was filled with paint. "If I haven't accepted the quest, I wouldn't have this on my beautiful face." He said. "Plus, it says on the quest description that you had to punch it without using a weapon."Well, enough said. It was his turn once more to attack the gigantic rock. With a smirk, he charged forward without hesitation and with a forceful attack, he was able to land a gigantic hit, once again, causing the crack to grow even more. Cool... Even closer. He thought with a sigh as he returned back to where he started, allowing the other player to have a go.Blue (44/44) (ENE: 8/11)Greg Baxen (24/24) (ENE: 0/7)Giant Boulder (14/50) Edited October 21, 2015 by Blue Link to post Share on other sites

Blue said, kind of irritated. "Don't judge based on first impression... Because as far as I can tell, I've been inflicting more hits on the boulder than you." He finished. Not wanting a conflict, Blue decided that he would once more attempt an attack on the boulder. He was growing more restless and impatient as the times went on but he knew they would finish soon.Blue went flying towards the gigantic rock. It was almost invincible, hence why the quest was called breaking the unbreakable. However, he was determined to land yet another hit on the annoying piece of obstacle. Even thought it looked like he was going to miss, he was still able to somehow guide his fists toward the boulder and land the hit. Not bad. He thought with pride before backing off and allowing the other player yet another hit. We're on a streak.

Greg Baxen 0 Posted October 22, 2015 Author #47 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Deciding not to press the issue further, Greg ends the argument with "I'm just saying." Turning his thoughts back to the rock, he checks its HP Bar. It was now in the red, at about 1/5 of its max hp remaining. Just a few more hits and this test of patience would be done. Greg lunges at the rock.ID: 35858BD 8: Hit!His punch solidly connects with the rock.

Eh. Who cares. He thought, quite amused with the situation at the moment and not very caring at all. However, there was still the obstacle currently preventing him from more skill points and a bit more materials as well and that was this gigantic boulder that both players were currently trying to smash."Alright... Let's do this." He said with a sly smile. He was quite confident that the party of two would finish off the rock in no time as long as they don't become distracted. "Soon." He said before dashing towards the rock with top speed. As Blue approached the rock and became nearer, he raised his fist up before striking the boulder with force and utmost might, dealing yet another damage to it.Blue (44/44) (ENE: 8/11)Greg Baxen (24/24) (ENE: 0/7)Giant Boulder (10/50) Edited October 22, 2015 by Blue Link to post Share on other sites
Greg Baxen 0 Posted October 23, 2015 Author #49 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Greg rushed at the Rock again. It was now at 1/5 of its HP, which, if he was counting correctly, was 10. Just ten, possibly less, hits, before this farce of a quest was finally over. Eager to get this over with, Greg threw another punch at the rock.ID: 35927.BD 10: Super Crit! +2 Damage!Greg's punch leaves visible marks on the rock as the health goes down by three!

"You are quite good at getting lucky." Blue said in a taunting tone. Let's see if the game will be on my side this time. He thought as he stared at the rock. It was a pitiful object and perhaps it was meant to be destroyed but all things bad has a good side no matter the degree. It's a shame to kill such a marvelous masterpiece of a rock. He thought as he held his hands up high, ready to pounce upon the huge rock that was about to be exterminated. Blue charged up at the rock with an intimidating stare that would have probably made an enemy flinch if the rock was a living thing. However, the rock was not living but the effect was still there. With a yell, Blue jumped up into the air for some more dramaticness before coming down through the force of gravity which he used to apply force upon his fists. With a thud. He was able to strike the rock.Blue (44/44) (ENE: 9/11)Greg Baxen (24/24) (ENE: 0/7)Giant Boulder (6/50) Edited October 23, 2015 by Blue Link to post Share on other sites
Greg Baxen 0 Posted October 24, 2015 Author #51 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Greg sighs. He was gonna be pondering the meaning of life at this rate, if he hadn't started already, the rock was taking that long to break! 'No point wasting time on thinking about random things, gotta destroy this rock, get that Martial Arts skill, so i can obtain the strongest 1HSS Sword Art." He thought to himself. Then, he approached the rock.ID: 36045BD 8: Hit!Greg's punch chips a bit off of the rock's HP. The crack he left earlier is getting wider, the rock's HP only at 1/10 of what it had at first.

It was a drag... trying to hit a rock while losing patience slowly but surely. However, one gotta look on the positive side! The rock only had five health points remaining and with a few hits, the gigantic obstacle should be done for the quest. Alright... Let's see if I can land this hit. He thought with a crack of his knuckles.Blue charged toward the opening of the cave where there should be an opening but instead lay a rock. With a forceful jump, he leaped high into the air and came down with quite an extraordinary speed. Nice. He thought when he just managed to make a hit on the rock...

'He does realize that doing all those fancy flips and stuff is cool and all, but does nothing for practicality?'

Still, they were just about to finish the rock off. Estimating about two or three more hits, Greg moves towards the rock again.

The boulder had only two more health left so if each player manages to land one hit, they should be finished with the boulder with the next attack if Blue manages to hit this.

He knew that if he managed to hit the boulder, he would be able to either take one more health away from the it or finish it off with this attack. However, as much as he would've liked to finish off the boulder, he was unable to do so and instead, he only managed to take away one health from the rock.Blue (44/44) (ENE: 8/11)Greg Baxen (24/24) (ENE: 0/7)Giant Boulder (1/50) Edited October 26, 2015 by Blue Link to post Share on other sites

With a chuckle, he charged forward with his fist raised high.Blue feinted to the right for no apparent reason, but it seemed to have worked especially since he was able to land a critical attack. What a waste. He thought in disappointment. However, there was a positive. Indeed, the boulder had burst into millions of millions of overpowering pieces. Finished. He thought. "Well... That's the quest completed." He said as he accepted the rewards that had appeared in front of him. "Good luck my friend, Greg."

Greg Baxen 0 Posted October 27, 2015 Author #59 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Greg sighed in relief as the boulder was destroyed. Chuckling at his ... friend? acquaintance? He still hadn't figured it out. Anyways, he chuckled at the other player's joke. "Believe me, i had no intention to. It's just rocks have it out for me for some reason." He responds jokingly. "I'm glad this quest is over, though, i don't think my sanity could handle it for much longer." he then quipped. Greg got the notification for quest clear, and obtained the Martial Arts skill at long last! "Thanks for the help, i appreciate it!"
