Now waiting on Kaito and Maxxo.
Holding her tome in her hands, opened, she chanted the skill name Magic Bolt. Magical energy would gather from within her and also from around the tome as well, flowing into her hand before it shot out in the same way that the Magic Bolt that Mushi had did, as a small, soft-ball sized concentration of bluish energy. The power, despite being weak, felt real and amazing. It literally felt like she was using magic rather than using a skill in a game, her tome shining a bit as she used the magic spell to attack the heavily wounded, robed goblin.

The bolt of magical energy slammed straight into the creature, making it cry out. It was harder to hit thanks to it being on the ground, and thus a smaller target for a ranged weapon to hit, but she still managed to hit somehow nonetheless, [Projectile Weaponry] most likely being used for accuracy here. The beast seemed to stop moving at all though after the blast hit it square in the chest, it having cried out wen hit, but now it wasn't moving at all, signifying that it was dead, as another window for everyone appeared stating that another 3 XP had been earned.

A few windows appeared for Meiji after she had killed the robed creature with her Magic Bolt spell, which was also, coincidentally, the same Skill that Mushi's Wand could use.







Two enemies down, two to go now, and there were still two people yet to move in this instant. If they did well enough, they could take down the swordsman and the archer enemies before they had any chance to react, their being at least no danger of bombs or possibly magic, if the robed one had been a mage, now, which was nice.
Keiko turned around as Silas moved over to her and told her that she wasn't going to tell him to go back. She didn't want to say 'this has nothing to do with you' since, with the death of one of their friends, it did have something to do with them. "Fine, have it your way". She suddenly moved backwards, two Talismans appearing in her hands. She then threw them onto the walls beside her so that they were across from each other. With a wave of her hand, a line of energy connected the two talismans before a glowing wall would now be between her, Silas, and Sasha.

"I cannot let you come along though, but... if you can break this barrier then I will accept your help. If not... please turn back, there is nothing wrong with leaving to live another day". She had an apologetic tone to her voice, as she didn't want to do this, but saw no other choice. After that she began to go up the stairs to the next floor, leaving Sasha and Silas the choice of either turning back or trying to break the barrier Keiko had created so that they could advance.
Sasha first made sure to activate the breathing technique, that familiar surge of energy flowing through her returning, strengthening her abilities as she fired another barrage two barrages of revolver shots. Unfortunately for this time, this last one was at full health and not bound by chains, so hitting it with both barrages may not have been a walk in the park like before.
Sasha Revolver 1: 66 - 41 Projectile = 25

Miss

Revolver 2: 6 - 41 = -35 (Max Damage!)

Damage Dealt: 110
The first barrage of shots nearly hit, but in the end they missed as the spirit barely moved out of the way in time. The second line barrage of six shots was spot on, making the creature howl out in pain. Then Sasha asked Keiko the question, bringing Keiko back from her stunned silence as she stood up.

Glaring at the creature with a mixture of anger, disgust, and also a hint of sadness, she clapped her hands together, before spreading them apart slightly, but still keeping her fingers and the bottom of her hands touching, as if to create a hole with her hands. "Begone from this world you foul creation". Electricity suddenly began to spark to life in the 'hole' that she made with her hands, which she then thrust towards the beast, the bolt streaming and tearing through the air faster than one could blink.
Keiko Attack: -29 (Max Damage)

Damage Dealt: 270
The beast howled out as the blast of lightning slammed into it, but that was not all Keiko did. Right after she launched her blast, she moved forward with surprising agility, one of her hands glowing with some form of faint, golden light, the girl proceeding to then literally palm strike the creature in one of the creature's many faces that were on its monstrous body.
Keiko Palm Strike: -9 (Max Damage)

Damage Dealt: 120
While the palm strike itself didn't seem all too strong, the light that was on her palm blasted into the creature, making it howl and twist its form as the light moved and began to constrict its being, tearing away the dark, horrid essences that made up the being. The beast tried to resist, but it was out of strength, or HP in the Gamers' case, the beast crying out before it soon vanished in a flash of light, Keiko throwing a Talisman at the remaining summoning circles, making them vanish.

After that she turned back to Sasha. "I... don't know what happened to her... bodies just don't disappear like that..." She seemed quite confused as well. "But... I felt the life force leaving her body... so I'm pretty sure that..." she lowered her head, averting her eyes and staying quiet. She saw the chest that was left behind, walked over to it and handed it to Silas. "I don't know if this has to do with your strange ability or not, so she could be alive... I don't know, but for now, you two should turn back. Its clearly too dangerous for you to be here". She didn't want to belittle their efforts or strength, but her expression was serious as she turned away and began to move onward, hoping that Silas and Sasha didn't follow.
Ah, glad to have you back then.
This battle is going way to well...

Oh well, its the first one.
As Mushi moved forward, aiming his wand at the wounded goblinesque creature it would be a bit hard to aim at two creatures fighting, Elik's large frame indeed giving the creature a bit of cover, but that wouldn't be too much of an issue if the bolt hit the beast. The moment he chanted the Weapon Skill name, the wand shone lightly before suddenly a bolt of magical energy was expelled from the wand and towards the creature, it being maybe around the size of a softball and blue in color, a bit of Mushi's own MP being drained as he used the Weapon Skill.

Fortunately the bolt hit the beast dead on, the magical energy making the creature cry out before it fell to the ground, being no more as the bolt had hit the beast dead on and threw it to the ground, the bomb in its hand rolling out of it. The body remained there though despite all of that, this probably being another element of the game's realism, the body not disappearing upon death, it probably being something that could be searched for loot, but that would have to wait until the other three were defeated. A window appeared in front of all of the players stating the following.



Since they were all in a party, they probably earned equal XP for all of the kills, especially since they were also all the same level. Still, this definitely meant that one enemy was dead, leaving the swordsman, archer, and what was possibly a wounded mage. This battle was going very smoothly thus far.

A window appeared in front of Mushi though after his wand's skill was a successful hit, followed by a second one after that.



Elim wasn't one to celebrate in battle, but even he was he would wait until he could confirm the enemy's death. That wasn't the case here as the a red piece of ice suddenly shot up, ice and snow forming back around it, Elim smirking. That wasn't as fruitless as normal people would think. "By revealing your weakness, you've sounded your death knell". They just needed to get to that core and smash it, simple enough. Of course, first they had to deal with the sudden large piles of snow that was catapulted towards them in an attempt to bury them alive.

Elim wasn't going to be a sitting duck. He quickly charged forward, gritting his teeth as instead of trying to dodge the pile, he used a bit more magic to intensify the blaze over the entirety of his weapon, spinning it rapidly above his head. This ring of fire above Elim acted as a shield. Of course, it wasn't perfect, some bit of snow still bashing into Elim, but he gritted his teeth and pressed onward towards the creature, baring the assault of snow.

"Your attacks are soft, just like that shell around you!" Elim cried this out loudly as once again, with a mighty spin of his weapon, he the fiery blade of the glaive slashed through the leg of the giant once again, but Elim wasn't going to give it a chance to regenerate. Instead of focusing damage onto both legs, he did it on one, making a second powerful cleave to cut the leg off completely, or so he hoped it would.

Either way, once the leg was off, the beast would have to drop to one knee, giving Elim time to get the other leg so that he could try and get on the creature's back after that.
Well, posted for the two who did post. First actual Critical of the game (getting within the range or a Critical Success, which starts at 0 and goes up every 10 points you get in Luck, which is how I found to make Luck useful aside from its many other uses).

Ominal got a 1 on that attack roll (on the dice) XD

Which aside from being a Critical Strike allows an extra affect. In this case, the one that made the most sense was knocking the opponent prone.
These goblinesque creatures were probably around three feet tall, meaning they would be a small bit harder to hit due to their small frames and heights, but that didn't mean it was impossible. Elik charged forward first, shield raised as he aimed to bring his sword down upon the creature with the bombs, his shield slowing him down a small bit thanks to how heavy it was. Still, he was able to swing his sword nonetheless, hopefully able to hit what was probably a swift creature.

Elik's blade struck incredibly deep and true, the creature with the bomb in his hand letting out a loud screech of pain as it sunk in deep. A visible, red gash could be seen on the beast representing the cut, but there was no blood. It was more like it was glowing red slightly. There being no blood was probably due to the Realism Controversy that happened in the VR Gaming world a while ago, with games that had realistic death and gore effects traumatizing players and even awakening serial killers that would have never been awakened otherwise. It was quite the hot topic when VR Gaming first hit the scene and was quite the common knowledge among those who kept up with that sort of news.

The company who made this ultra realistic game were sued and actually went bankrupt due to all of the lawsuits and damages that they had to pay for. Needless to say, since then people who made VR Games made sure to to follow the Realism Code as set up after that controversy happened.

So while the sensation of the blade sinking into the goblin could be visibly seen and even 'felt' in a way, like as if he was actually cutting into a real monster in a way that one would forget that they were cutting into a game sprite, the glowing red gash down its torso would instead represent the wound rather than a bloody wound. There were no HP Bars or anything of the sort that appeared, but it was clear from how ragged the breathing of this creature was and how it was clutching its chest after that nasty blow that it was probably near death and in really bad shape. The sword did sink in incredibly deep after all, the heavy bastard sword a bit slower, but able to deal some serious damage.

Right after Elik made that rather swift, deep blow a window appeared before him, that one disappearing after he would close it and then another one taking its place.





Apparently to unlock skills, or one way to do so at least, was through 'Special Actions', which probably meant that Skills could be obtained through experimentation or other such things. There was no time to figure out that though, as all four enemies were still up, but there was one that was probably near to being out.

Next to react in that instant chance they all had to attack was Ozwald, who moved swiftly and aimed to throw a knife at the robed creature, this one possibly being a mage of some type due to its robes, but it was impossible to tell, Ozwald getting closer so that his Proximity Shot passive would give a damage bonus if he hit.

The knife flew truer than true, the thrown knife stabbing the robbed creature right between the shoulder blades before it could even react, a red 'Critical' appearing above its head before anyone could even register it, the creature having been knocked down somehow by the sudden attack as it cried out loudly, the knife sticking out from a softer point in the body. While it wasn't dead, it being prone meant that it had to spend time getting up and was a bit more open to melee attacks. A few windows appeared for Oz after his attack.













With all of these windows appearing, Oz was getting quite the bonuses, the +1 Thrown Weaponry one literally making him feel as though he was now a small bit better with thrown weapons. It was quite a weird sensation really, suddenly becoming better at something, and literally feeling it, because there was an increase in a number. This game was incredible indeed.

Still, there were two unharmed opponents and two opponents that looked quite close to death. Either way, if the heroes acted quickly, they may be able to wrap up this battle before the enemy even had a chance to strike.
