70 Chapter 63 ~ North Riverside Burrow (1/2)
Unequipping her current armor back to the hide armor she used to wear, Siola went to approached the bandit disguising as a helpless woman. 'D-Damn, this is quite nerve-wracking. I mean, I'm about to kill people again. In this body… if I get another sparkles out of my system, I'm fucked.'
'C-Come on, Dola. You can do this… look at those bandits, they're totally lusting for your undeveloped – nghf – body. A-Anyway, let's do this!'
”Excuse—”
'Shit.'
To her surprise, it didn't work. The band was quickly turned into an enemy as she got in his line of sight. Quickly reequipping back to her shrouded gear and Nightwolf gauntlets, she went to inspect them with [Appraisal]. Locking her eyes tight and rapidly moving around them. 'Guh, all of them are above 60, and one is even level 100.'
The archers fire their arrows down at her, luckily, with her new gear… she can move even faster and able to dodge those spiky rain. Hastily, she moves to the back and the ground bandits chased her down.
'What the hell, are they not real people? They should've lusted for me and began chasing me like wolves in heat, and yet… welp, they are chasing me all right, but doesn't seem like they want me for my body.'
”Haaaaaaaaaah!!”
”Die, Travelers!”
”I'll take your head up on a pike!”
”Hm?” her eyes widened as she heard that, quickly understood what is going. 'Damn, so they're mindless. Not real people I see, just like a monster or an enemy in the game. I guess I was correct, it is still a game after all' glancing at them, 'Their eyes… lifeless. Does it mean, they are one of those? Those NPCs are not actually an NPC, not a people… just enemies.'
”Either way, they're all going to die in the end, but I'm glad I don't need to dirty my stomach.”
The archers up in the fortress started going through the gate instead of just jumping over the walls, soon, they're joining the infantry. Siola moves around to the left, avoiding the lake on the right, and casted her spell as she rounds them up.
”Ma— wait, let's try that.”
Stopping as she turned around, she combined her arm like an X, waiting for a few moments until her hands radiate a full yellow aura, and then backwardly slapping the air. Activating a fully charged [Telekinesis]. *Whooopf*
*Bwooooooooosh*
”Guahhh!” the tree bandits were swept away and flew several meters into the water. That did not deal with any damage however. Siola then moves on to the next targets, the three archers. ”Magic Arrow!” yelling it loudly as she pushes her hands directed at the archers, *Fwoosh*, multiple spectral arrows were summoned and pierced the bandits' chests.
She activated Magic Arrow at a bigger scale, fully charging them, and then send it to their heads. *Baks *Baks *Baks
”Oof, criticals, baby!” Siola hurriedly went to them, and one by one, smashing their heads with her staff like a golf club. *RIP… my favorite game ;_;*
”These dogs… so naughty.”
”Heh, look at them waving.” Siola raised her staff once more and slammed it down to their heads.
*BAKS*
”…”
Breathing a sigh of relief, ”Phew.”
”Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!” The other three bandits came again, they managed to get out of the water. 'Well of course they do, they're grown men after all.' She points her staff towards them and activated her 2.75 Potency [Magic Arrow]. Bigger in scale, thicker, and stronger. She slaps it away and it quickly pierced the bandit's head, *Baks*, stunning him.
Obviously, she can't take that critical. Instead, she took the smoke air of the archers' corpse and used [Reanimate] to the weakest deceased. It kept failing, and she had to keep using her [Magic Arrow] to keep the enemy at bay, but then… the smoke finally sticking inside, and it quickly formed a transparent ball. One of the bandits coming at her is more than level 100, but it seems that there is no need for her to panic about it.
The archer on her side… has turned into an undead, but what changed is only his eyes which completely blacked out now with his body radiating a smoky aura. He took his bow back and then began showering the bandits full with his arrows. Siola charged up the [Magic Arrow] using her staff, 'Damn, this charge thing is really great. Thank you so much, Aris! I LOVE YOU!!'
Aiming at the level 100+ bandit, she pierced its head with the biggest arrows she ever made. *Baks!* Another stun she didn't take. She charged her spell again and do it, over… and over again.
*BAM!*
…
”I think… I'm having too much fun with that.”
Health: 80/4500 / Mana: 0/0 / Stamina: 78/100
She's one tick away from being sent to the Temple of Gathering. ”Hm? Oh yeah, why the hell the quest hasn't been updated it yet. I wonder if it's a bug, that would be embarrassing for them if people found out. I should send a report.”
Siola went to her menu and then rapidly typing on the forums, ”Hm? Ahh, I haven't made an account there yet. Err, let's see… register… and then… name Dola the Cutest Diva Ever, gyaahhh! So embarrassing, let's stick with just Dola for now. Alright, that's available. Great! And then, I need a… picture, huh.”
She went into camera mode and began posing, ”Hmm… not quite right. Hmm… hmm… let's see… what about this?” she commanded the archer to pile up the corpses and then she sits at the top of it. Resting her elbow to the archer as he looked at the camera, menacingly. While Siola is smiling brightly with her eyes close… it was a beautiful yet unnerving sight.
*Click*
”Nice! And then… upload.”

'That Karma thing… it's just standing, is all, like… a reputation point and some sort.' She then uploaded her first-ever private post and then went inside the fortress, where the rest of the enemies lie. The reason she didn't get the summary of battle ended, meaning that there still some enemies nearby, which means she just has to clear them out first before getting her rewards.
”Also, what's odd is that. I haven't found those men the chief was talking about. Did he lie to me or did they die in there?” she then walked inside the burrow, and turns out that… it's a pretty linear cave.
'Haa… this is nice, the Nightwolf equipment is healing me up so quickly. If only I can find the rest of this gear. At this early stage of the game, Mm! With Necromancer, Mm! Would be AMAZING, MM!!
The pathway inside already lights up with many torches on the side.
*Kreg *Kreg
*Plash*
Siola slapped the archer with the back of her hand who is making weird noises. ”Shut up” she mumbled.
*Kre~eee…*
There is a door on the right, 'Weird, this is so unimmersive… no, wait, an illusion?' the door suddenly gone when she appraised it. Inside… there are actually people inside. Tied with a rope and with their mouth being shut as well.
One of them… his eyes light up, ”Mmphff!! Mmmphf!” wearing the same outfit. 'Oh ya? Are those the guys that were supposed to handle this place? They should've just sent someone from the Adventurer's Guild instead. I wonder if Stoneanvil doesn't have the luxury to hire them. I mean, if it's for the people. Shouldn't they just do it no matter what?'
She then went in and removes the rope on their mouth, though, all of them have passed out except for one. ”T-Thank you. Those people, they're insane!”
”Woah, slow down there. What happened?”
”T-They eat people, taking a human heart, and then eat them. You, you have to get us out of here.”
Siola's eyes brightened, ”Suuuuuuure… not.”
”Huh?”
Pointing her staff right to his head.
”W-Wait, what are you doing?”
”Send my regards to lady Konig, yeah?”
His eyes quickly widened. Gritting his teeth, veins popped out of his forehead, ”Blindi—”
”Magic Arrow!”
*Baks!*
”Ngrr” a critical, Siola raised her staff and pummeled his face down. *Bak!
*BAK! … *Bak … *Bak! … *BAK!
Blood splashes out to the others' face as Siola's hands were coated in blood.
”D-Dammit, they got to my clothes. These are gifts, dude. What the hell is wrong with you.” She raised her staff once more and pummeled it again, *BAM*. At that time, she noticed that… another one has awakened. Greeting him with a smile and blood in her teeth, ”Yo.”
