Into The Depths!

Genor

[ 37 | 5'7" | 168lbs ]

Personality

Reserved and lack of any new idea, it is Genos' destiny to be lead but never followed. But, when it comes to bear the brunt of enemies attack, Genos is more than welcome for the challenge.

A simple man does simple thing.

Brief Biography

The world remembered the doctors and the healers, the knights and their deeds, the priests and their incantations, the mages and their spells. But it never remembered the foot soldiers.

And Genos is one of those nameless foot soldiers. Unlike most dreamers out there, who fight the devils for honor, glory, penance, or out of kindness, Genos sold himself for the fight against the devil in exchange for a plot of land, 3 gold coins, 8 silvers, and 85 copper coins. That money alone is more than what he could earn in 5 years. Thus, with a growing family, he signed himself into the Fourth Crusade.

And when the time comes and goes, as the Fourth Crusade now turned to Fifth, the soldier still remains here. He sold himself, after all, for a greater cause.

And when the kappa opened its maw, revealing its sharp teeth littering inside its beak, everything freeze.

Klein's narrating himself

In every gameplay, there will always be the outplay. The 1v2. The 1v3. The corner shooting. The moving headshot. The smoke. Abilities management. The decision making that creates the macro and the player's abilities creating the micro. There are so many things that contributed to a great outplay.

But most importantly, to create an outplay, the player's knowledge of his or her characters, abilities, and predictions must be better than the opponents.

With that in mind, then why is it that outplay are hardly ever happen? Because people don't really gamble. They go in when they already have a lead advantage like number advantage, abilities advantage, bullets advantage,... And only when the advantages are so huge between two sides that the players begin to engage. But at that point, it wouldn't be an outplay, would it?

Let's look at the situation at hand, but not in the current situation, not yet. Back in the beginning, we had an advantage. A number advantage, which is huge. But, the kappas still attack us with only two of them. They take their gamble. They gamble that they could take a group of 7 players and survive victoriously. This means that in the context of 1v1 or 2v1, none of the team members would make it out alive.

Now what are you seeing currently seeing are two dudes beating down a group of 7.

And what is your prediction?

Klein is probably going to die.

Are you sure about that?

100% and OMG!

Without much saying, as if he was waiting for this moment, Klein shoved his whole right arm into the kappa's mouth, an opening that he believed to be the kappa's doom. A thousand red lines glaze across his skin. And instantly after that, the thick scarlet liquid begins to ooze from the opening, filling the kappa what it sought after. But Klein doesn't stop there.

He doesn't attempt to break free from its grip.

He embraces it.

So he goes deeper, to no man's land. His hand goes through the tongue, letting it wraps against the Chuck Norris' muscles. And it was barely a fraction of a second before the hand made a breakthrough the kappa's pharynx and enter its esophagus. And then, he starts wreaking havoc.

Now, I would like for you to imagine. Imagine a man who could extend his jaw so large that he is able to eat another grown man's fist. And then, he is just choking on this person's fist as this stranger keeps ramming his fist toward his esophagus. Like he is in pain for having his organ being damage, his pharynx trying its best to regurgitate this massively large unidentified object from the digestive tract, and his jaws trying to close itself so he could somehow swallow it. But this stranger keeps beating him down and the pharynx is the pathway needed for both breathing and swallowing. So here we are, witnessing a dude choking on another dude's arm.

And this is what Klein's doing to the kappa, inserting more and more of his arm's length inside the kappa. Pounding it more and more from the inside. The link that forms between them, the kappa's hands gripped against Klein's throat grew stronger and stronger as well.

It is the only thing that stopped Klein's from inserting his whole arm in one go. It is the only tool available for the Kappa to kill Klein.

So, enemies to the death lock their eyes onto each other. A 2.2 meters tall giant atop of a humanoid with turtle-back. The wind breeze blow between them, carrying the dandelions to somewhere far. The grass, soft and a little bit messy from the fight. Cattails moves and frogs ribbits. And the river flows to somewhere. But the pounding never stops, and so does the force being applied on one's throat.

In some morbid sense, it is "Till death do us part."

"Holy shite," Klein exclaimed after noticing how hard the whatever spell hit him. Despite the spell was like a child pounding his chest, the fact that it dealt a quarter of his health is alarming. Even worse, he didn't do much damage, or any, in return. Perhaps he should just have become range, and just play his comfort role. Like a snake in the grass. Hide all game until the last round and popped up. But, it is too late now.

Giving a glance toward the kappa that was intercepted by Ames, Klein hopes that Amulak could kill it with his next spell. But, if he couldn't, his health bar should be thick enough to survive one hit from the monster. On the other hand, Klein picked a bolt from the ground, courtesy of boomer Raymond, and begin to charge at the spell-caster kappa. He saw Lewd and how the samurai had been holding that stance all this time, even when attempting to approach the spell caster kappa. And Klein's current objective is to give him that window of opportunity. So he charged forward before leaping into the air, both hands on the silver bolts. If he killed it, insane. If he didn't, his objective is complete.

I will die.
Beneath the starry nights.
Ask me not where I come
Ask me not where I go.
Ask me where I rest.
Beneath the starry nights.
The static sounds, the howling winds.

An excruciating pain. A pain so strong that it wrecks his brain into mush. Or, that was what Klein was expecting from a spear going through his back. But, to be honest, it was like a pencil head going through his skin. Painful, but laughable at the same time.

Still, even with such minor pain, the effect it brought upon him could be noticeable. Almost a fifth of his health became thin air. And with such obvious suggestion, Klein reliezed that he didn't need to kill the monsters. All he need was to consume them without cooking. This means that he should have just gone to some butchers and buy some raw meat. Or, he could just let the ranged to do what they do best. So, pulling himself out from the pile of humans, Klein retreated back to his backline, planting himself between his much squishier teammates and the kappas. If the kappa only did 19 damage to the back, he could take at least 5 more hits like that before going down. Not too bad. Maybe he should even spec more points into health once he gets levels up.
