Chapter 49: Chapter 49

Jim's PoV

Jim had just stepped foot on the island he had been searching for. He was a little nervous. This fight against the super boss was going to be him alone. With this boss's one shot mechanic, it would not be safe for anyone but him to attack the boss.

Turning around he said to Scarlet, "Take the rowboat back to the ship, both of you. This guy is really, really, really dangerous. Don't come back till you can see me on the shore."

Dismissively and with some greed in her eyes Scarlet said "Sounds like maybe I've earned some DKP. How about a more offensive set of gear? Could have really used it against the Kraken."

Jim blinked and asked "Kraken?"

Scarlet nodded with a smile and said "Yep. You could have been on the bottom of the ocean had it not been for us! How about some upgrades? Pretty please!"

Wanting confirmation he said to Forrest, "Kraken? Really?"

Nodding Forrest said "Yeah, big bastard. Lots of tentacles. Honestly think we got lucky, even with the two wolves and Scarlet cutting through the tentacles, they barely managed to keep the ship afloat."

Irritated Scarlet said "Don't sell yourself short Forrest. You probably put 50 arrows in one of its eyes. If it wasn't so pissed off trying to kill you, it might have smartened up and sunk the ship."

Damn, they beat a mid game side boss! Jim thought about it for a second and then figured why not, they earned some upgrades. After doing some thinking he landed on a set of gear that was a good all rounder set of rogue gear. It had much more defense and a 20 agility bonus but its enchantment was on the more offensive side of things. It would give her attacks some more bite. And more importantly.. He had to keep the theme going.

Doing a few hand motions he dragged and dropped the new set of gear on Scarlet.
