The Gamer In Another World - Chapter 42
Mischief Mountain
“Damn. what kind of place is this actually. Why there are so many monster who fight like crazy everyday.” (Darvan)
What Darvan said is right. We are already travel four days in this place and we almost empty our potion.
This place is full of monster beast that fight each other. Sometimes it just one on one fight but sometime it become three
or four way fight. All of the monster beast just want to fight. Because of it we need to fight to find our way too.
Right now we are in deep cave. Glowy lead us to this place. Seems like this place is where morning lotus flower can be
found is deep in the underground cave
“Let’s continue our journey. Our supply is getting less and less. We need to get out from this place as quick as we can
after we found that herb. Stay on your guard everyone. I don’t want that black scale serpent ambush us again” said Grid
with caution
We continue our journey to the deep underground cave. Two days at night after we fight against that rhino monster beast,
a black scale serpent ambush us. Good thing Glowy realize it. But because it’s a night time all of us have limited vision
and we can only fight because Grid keep pointing at the serpent. It messed up.
“Keek.. keek” Glowy pointed and the place where the light comes from
As we all walk toward the light we are surprise to see so many tree.This tree don’t have any leaf but it’s not dead either.
Its all brown in color.
“Where are we Grid ?” (Rudeus)
“I don’t know Rudeus, I don’t think even adventure ever come to this place.” Grid answered
“Everyone look at this.” miss Velma slash the tree and it sound “Ping!!”
“Wait what ?” everyone see it make surprise expression.
“The tree is made from rock ?” said Darvan
“We should be caution. We don’t know anything in this place right now” said Grid
“Yes” everyone nod
After a few moment of walk we found a lake and there is a big hole above the lake. The light is coming from the hole
above the lake. As we want to get closer to the lake Glowy stop and make a sound
“Keek.. keek.. keek.” it pointed to the lake and make a scary face and then hide
“Seems like there is something powerful inside the lake” (Rudeus)
“The lake is quite clear. Is there really something inside ?” (Darvan)
“It’s possible. This place only like 15 minutes walk from the cave entrance but we do not see anything come inside or a
monster beast live inside.” (Grid)
“Well it’s true” (Darvan)
“We just need to wait until night comes right. What’s more it’s almost night now. Only a few hours more I think” said
miss Velma
“Alright let rest in this place then” (Darvan)
“Alright” said everyone.
As we rest and eat our ration, an eyes straring at us from the deep lake but we do not notice it and after a second it’s gone.
It even do not make any ripple in the lake too.
I feel something from the lake so I reflexively turn around and see at the lake but I see nothing so I focus to eat my ration
again. Seems like Grid and miss Elsiya feel the same too but like me they see nothing so they focus to eat their ration
again.
When the night comes, all of us feels the energy inside the cave is rising. It condense into the lake. It seems like the lake
absorbing the energy.
“Hey you all feel it right. The lake absorbing the energy” said Darvan
“Yes. Miss Elsiya, is it really morning lotus flower that we searching for ?” (Rudeus)
“Yes. According to the document that I read. The place where morning lotus area is a water that absorb the surrounding
energy when the night comes. But I don’t know that water is a lake in the underground cave” said Miss Elsiya with a bit
explanation
“Well seems like we can only wait until morning too see the morning lotus flower bloom and take it.” (Grid)
“Wait a minute, this place is filled with energy right. What happen if we meditate in this place. I think it will help us
increase our meditation battle skill right” (Rudeus)
“You are right. But we need to stand guard too. After all we don’t know if something live in this place.” said Grid
immediately
“Well alright then. we will switch the guard every 2 hours. How’s that sound ?” (Rudeus)
“Alright” everyone agree and after that we divide which one will go first.
The first one to guard is miss Velma and then me, Darvan, Grid and the last is miss Elsiya.
After we decide that I speak to Glowy “Glowy we will take turn to guard this place. You help us many times already so
you should rest. Don’t worry I will keep my promise”
“Keek.. keek.. keek” it keep pointed to the lake
“I know. I understand that there is a monster inside the lake. But I will still keep my promise.”
“keek.. keek” seems like Glowy is feeling down
“I understand your worry, Glowy. But we just need to take the flower ok” I said to try to calm it
“Keek..” then it nod its head
Everyone begin to meditate. All of us is too focus on meditate that we don’t know something watching over us from deep
inside the lake.
The morning light is coming and the energy in the surrounding is already thin. Everyone watching the lake to see if the
morning lotus flower is really inside the lake. We are standing quite far from the lake. Glowy reminded us a few times
that’s why we are standing quite far.
After a few minutes waiting, something rise up from the lake. It a flower that big as palm. Its blue in color. Its root keep
expanding and then the flower stop raising. After that the petal is open one by one and it make the energy in the area is
rich. It a beautiful sight to behold.
Everyone is come closer to see it. Glowy voice is shouting at us but it can only stare at us.
“Miss Elsiya, is that a morning lotus flower that you are talking about ?” I ask miss Elsiya whose beside me
“Yes, it really is. You see the liquid on top on the flower. That the dew flower we need” said miss Elsiya with a happy
voice
“Hmm.. this is the first time I see her like this.” I thought and seems like everyone else is the same. They focus on the
flower too
After the flower fully bloom I ask “So how can we take it then ? Swim ?”
“Well I think that’s the only way” (Darvan)
“Wait. We need to make a preparation first. You can not just jump over the lake without knowing anything”
As we talk in the lake shore, me and Darvan turn our bodies to face Grid and miss Velma and miss Elsiya is beside me
and Darvan. Gris is the only one face the lake.
Something moving from the deep lake and come closer to us.
Glowy voice is heard but we just ignored it “Keek.. keek.. keek..”
As we keep talking how we take the flower, Grid stop a moment and thought “What’s that ? Something moving ?”
And then after a few second his eyes is open and shout to everyone “Run..!!!”
As we heard Grid saying me and Darvan reflexively roll to the side
“BOOOMMM !!!” the dust is raise higher
As I and Darvan look to the side we find a huge figure inside the dust.
“Run.. !!” said Grid again
I heard it and immediately run away. But Darvan is a bit slow so the thing in the dust aim at him
“BOOOMMM!! Hisss….!!”
“Darvan” I shout.
Darvan fly so far away and cough blood.
“Cough.. cough..” Darvan is injured
I immediately go to him and save him. I jump toward him because the that thing still aim Darvan
“BOOOM!!” it missed because of me
After the dust is dissipated we saw the thing attack us.
It have a body of snake and have 2 heads.
When everyone see the monster beast whose attack us everyone got chilled. “RUN…..!!!” shout Grid
But Darvan is injured so he can not move fast. I help him and Grid shooting his arrow with a full energy. We all run
towards the entrance with that two head snake chasing us.
