Chapter 79: Hunt the Giant Spider Arachny!



Chapter 79: Hunt the Giant Spider Arachny!

''Y-You are really Ichiro?'' Mark and Jake couldn't believe it.

Their group of friends was gobsmacked after seeing the King talking with them so casually.

''Yes, I told you thousand times already,'' Ichiro said.

Ichiro and the rest are currently staying outside of Lessencave in the nearby forest.

They couldn't properly talk since literally a thousand people tried to eavesdrop on their conversation.

No one was standing on their way after Ichiro decided to leave Lessencave to somewhere more private.

Jake scratched his head. ''This is so not fair.''

''What do you mean?'' Ichiro asked curiously.

Jake sighed. ''You are the dream of countless girls in real life, and now you are some kind of Demi-God of the gaming world.''

Ichiro shrugged. ''I am a man of many talents.''

Mark and Jake sighed; they have to admit that Ichiro is definitely genius in equal standing with Slych.

It still seemed unreal that Ichiro actually managed to be close to equal with Slych Raften!

''C-C-Can I get your autograph…'' A timid sound was heard; Ichiro turned his head and saw a female avatar shyly holding a piece of paper.

Mark and Jake also thought that should they get autographs, it could sell for a lot of money.

''Sure,'' Ichiro said and took the piece of paper.

It showed an option to write something.

[King Of Games

Ichiro wrote simply and gave the piece of paper back to the girl.

''T-Thank you!'' The female avatar shouted with excitement.

Ichiro nodded, 'Since I am famous… Should I sell my autographs? It wouldn't hurt to get more money…' He narrowed his eyes.

But he was slightly afraid of doing it because of certain bitc… precious System might not allow it.

[I won't allow it]

'HOW DID YOU GET INGAME?' Ichiro was shocked, he didn't turn his head, but he scanned the area with his eyes.

[I am not ingame you moron. I am inside your head]

'Oh.' Ichiro felt slightly stupid; he looked around in real life and forgot that he wasn't actually ingame either.

''What should we do now?'' Mark asked after his initial surprise and excitement had slightly faded off.

''We can do the Hunt the Giant Spider Quest,'' Jake suggested.

Mark nodded and looked towards Ichiro, ''Is it fine with you?''

Ichiro nodded, ''Let's do it, but first… I will invite one more person.''

''Who?'' Mark asked curiously.

''You will see…'' Ichiro said mysteriously and opened his friend list.

He clicked the [Nightbutterfly] and started messaging.

{KingOfGames: Wanna join for Quest? We will be waiting in the Lessencave Monster Forest}

And sent.

Ichiro started waiting for a response, while Mark, Jake, and the others waited curiously.

*Ding*

A message popped up on Ichiro's screen.

{Nightbutterfly: Alright! I will be right there!}

Ichiro smiled and turned his head towards the curious individuals, ''She is coming.''

Mark looked thoughtful, ''So it is a she.''

''Hmm…'' Jake hummed thoughtfully.

Ichiro grabbed his phone in real life and started checking the news about Irio.

As he expected, the news about his incident was uncovered.

[NEWS: Irio's Golden Child, Kurogami Ichiro's Past!]

Ichiro sighed and closed the phone; he really hoped that he wouldn't get some pity looks tomorrow in school.

He is a big boy!

He doesn't need pity!

[Need a hug, big boy?]

Leave it to the System to ruin the moment.

Ichiro scoffed, ''I wonder if you become living being if the system becomes like Ultra Advanced Expert Mega System.''

[Maybe if you hit your head again, you might be able to hurt me]

''Really?''

[No]

Ichiro gritted his teeth and focused on the screen; he sent the message five minutes ago, and Nightbutterfly should be soon here.

A few more minutes later, they finally saw a silhouette walking towards them.

Ichiro looked closely and saw a female avatar approaching.

She had black hair with a ponytail. She didn't wear heavy armor like Ichiro did; instead, she wore very light armor, good for agility and mobility. Her avatar's face was quite ordinary because not everyone spent hours and hours making their avatar as beautiful as possible; Ichiro didn't care much either and went with the default setup.

Nightbutterfly reached the group and looked at everyone with a shy look.

''Hey, Nighty.'' Ichiro waved his hand.

''N-Nighty?'' Nightbutterfly exclaimed.

Ichiro nodded, ''It is your nickname from now on.''

He also has nicknames for Lucas and Slych.

Lucas's nickname is Moron, but he doesn't call him that in front of him, only in his mind while talking with System, but the system ignores his talks most of the time.

Ichiro is kind enough to keep company for lonely System, but he gets ignored!

Slych is called Cringe Lord. Ichiro is very jealous of him but also happy for Slych; he always seemed very distant with his team members and only seemed close with him and Lucas.

At least he won't be lonely in Armya, that's what he thought.

''A-Alright,'' Nightbutterfly said with a shy tone.

Then Ichiro remembers one very crucial thing, ''How is your mother?''

Nightbutterfly's voice instantly became joyous, ''Doctors said that my mother will make a full recovery in one week.''

Ichiro smiled and nodded, ''Good to know.''

*Cough*

Ichiro turned his head towards Mark, who coughed to get their attention.

''Ah, right, this is my two friends from real life, and those others are their friends.'' He pointed towards the group of friends.

''I am Mark.'' Mark nodded.

''I am Jake.'' Jake also nodded.

Their friends also gave a simple introduction.

''Shall we do that, Quest now?'' Ichiro said; the rest of the group also nodded with excitement.

''I will share the quest with you two,'' Mark said and offered both of them a quest.

[MarkAlley sent you a Quest Request}

[Accept/Reject]

Ichiro pressed Accept, and an Interface appeared in front of him.

[Hunt the Giant Spider!]

[Rewards: 10,000 Golden Coins (Shared by Party Members) - Spider Armor - Spider Sword]

[Penalty: -5 Level]

''Hmm.'' Ichiro nodded; rewards weren't that amazing in his opinion, because 10 members were currently in the party, which means everyone gets 1000 Golden Coins.

But only in his opinion, for others, this mission is great!

1000 Golden Coins are 100$ in real life, which is a lot of money for students.

The Party Members were extremely excited because this is free money!

They have KingOfGames on their side, and he alone can beat this Quest!

''Let's go; we have only a few hours before Jake, and I need to leave,'' Mark said; others nodded and started following behind him.

They started walking deeper in the forest since the lair of Giant Spider Arachny was located there.

There was a giant red dot in their maps, which tells the location of the Quest.

The bigger the red dot, the more significant threat they will face.

Like in the Quest to defeat Darcelion, the red dot was over 5-kilometer in diameter.

But Quest to hunt the Giant Spider Arachny is only around 10 meters in diameter.

Darcelion is about 500 times more dangerous and harder to defeat than Arachny.

The Forest had countless monsters, and the Giant Spider Arachny wasn't the most dangerous one; the deeper you go, the bigger chance of you dying.

In the middle of the forest… A being even stronger than Darcelion is located, but it is a World-Class Quest opponent; no one can defeat it yet, not even Ichiro.

Nightbutterfly was curious about Ichiro's identity; she took a few glances towards him and saw nothing special.

She started walking slightly faster and appeared next to Mark.

''Hey,'' Nightbutterfly whispered.

''Yea?'' Mark said with a questioning face.

''You are friends in real life with KingOfGames, right?''

Mark nodded, ''Yes.''

''What kind of person is he.'' Nightbutterfly curiously inquired.

Mark thought for a moment before answering, ''Interesting person.''

''What do you mean?''

''What do you think KingOfGames does in real life?'' Mark asked with amusement; no one would link him as one of the greatest geniuses in Martial Arts.

Nightbutterfly shrugged, ''An ordinary student?''

Mark shook his head, ''Nah… He is a Martial Artist.''

''What?!'' Nightbutterfly exclaimed.

Mark nodded, ''He represented our city not long time ago.''

''I see… Is he strong?''

Mark smiled, ''Very strong, strong enough to rival Gensa's greatest rival.''

''Ohh…'' Nightbutterfly was more and more curious about Ichiro, but then she remembered a particular slip of the tongue from Mark, ''So you two are from Gensa?''

''Ah…'' Mark exclaimed; he wryly smiled and nodded.

''Hmm…'' Nightbutterfly was thoughtful; she is confident that she could find the videos from Gensa's tournament; it must be spread everywhere already.

''Wait, Gensa… Wasn't it there where the tournament where the big rigging incident happened?'' Nightbutterfly muttered.

She wasn't sure, but she will find out everything about her savior, KingOfGames!

'It's not creepy… I am just curious, yes that's it. I am only curious!' Nightbutterfly made a convincing excuse.

'I just wanna see how he looks like… Yeah, I am only curious, nothing more, nothing less.' Nightbutterfly smiled and kept walking peacefully.

But then Mark's voice interrupted everyone's thoughts, ''We are here,'' He pointed towards a cave not far from them.

A Interface appeared in front of everyone.

[Welcome to Lair of Giant Spider Arachny!]
