Chapter 3: CHAPTER 3

CHAPTER 3:

There was an interesting feature in World of Esseka - "Territory".

If an area was unowned by any kingdoms or large organizations, a player could attempt to claim that area as his or her territory. This process can be a hit or a miss, depended on how well the player handled the situation. Of course, later on, the land owners could be challenged if someone wanted to take over the territory, and it was the only way to shift the ownership of a territory, except, if the landlord of that territory vanished from the world. Otherwise, even if that area was invaded, the landlord still had full power on that area, and thus can banish those invaders out of the land.

Previously, when Yakiro was still in control of Barsackra, he had a plenty of territories. Although currently he did not know if they were still under his control or not since Barsackra had been sealed and vanished already, he could still remember their location. Among them, there was one near the Greenstel Forest.

In front of the pair was a giant tree. It was so massive that it would require at least ten people with extending arms to be able to fully cover its perimeter. Green leaves grew from the branches that looked so ancient, which formed a large but very comforting shadow for the people who stood under it.

However, although looked important, that tree was just a mark for Yakiro, as he suddenly turned left and reached a much smaller tree next to that massive tree.

"Here we are."

He grabbed the top of the small tree, while chanting a phrase that were not even human language. Years of playing World of Esseka had engraved every single chant of spell into his head.

The ground underneath the small tree splitted in half, revealing a rusted blue door carved with swirling patterns as if multiple tornadoes were running on it. Somehow, it looked both appealing and terrifying to any one who saw it for the first time.

"H...How does a Level 1 person... knows this place?" Yomina gasped in surprise.

[Of course because it's my territory.] Yakiro really wanted to say that out loud. However, doing so would only make him become more suspicious. It felt irritating to hide the fact that he was the landlord of this dungeon, but currently he was nothing but a complete newbie. But that did not change the fact that resided inside that Level 1 body was the mind of a Level 120 master.

He looked at Yomina with a smile:

"Believe it or not, I used to be Level 17. Previouly, me and my teammates found out and challenged this dungeon, but the cost was too high..."

He halted and shifted to a sad tone of voice:

"...all of my teammates were killed, and my Level was drained so bad that I am now Level 1. The owner of this dungeon is Barsackra, the Destruction King..."

Of course except for the owner part, every other parts of that story were 100% imaginary.  There was nothing like "Level Drain" or  anything near that. Yakiro just made it up so that he could set up an explanation, in case he accidentally solved a complicated event that was impossible to be handled by a Level 1 player.

However, he noticed an angry Yomina, who was clenching her fists as tight as possible.

Her face were slowly filled with hatred.

"That monster.... harm people even after it is sealed..."

He could sense the utmost anger in her voice.

"I'm sorry that your friends passed away. My parents also passed away too, just because of that evil... Barsackra blasted through our house right at our family dinner, and... and I am the only person alive. My parents vanished without a trace... I miss them so much..."

Tears started flowing again from that green eyes.

A pain sparked directly inside Yakiro's heart, just like the way when his [Infernal Flare] blasted through the poor girl's house.

He had accidentally destroyed a family right at the middle of their cozy dinner because he thought it was just a game previously. Just imagine the scenario when one second, a father and a mother patted their daughter's head warmly, and one second later, their bleeding arms were the only thing left on the table.

It was undeniable that Yakiro directly controlled one of the most powerful creatures in the game. However, every power came with a price.

It was not until he was pulled to this world that he realized how devastating his actions were.

How many families he had ruined? How many innocent lives had he taken away? What had he caused for the citizens of this world?

He asked himself those vague questions, but he had already knew the answer.

-1000 Karma.

Enough to tell how irresponsible Yakiro was.

Stood before a grieving Yomina, Yakiro was speechless. It was him who caused her those painful memories.

"I apologize..." He mumbled.

"Eh... Why do you apologize?" Yomina wiped her tears and looked at Yakiro.

"Ah ah no, I mean, I'm sorry for your loss. It seems like everyone has a grudge with Basackra."

"Every single one. Barsackra is truly a catastrophe that only brings pain and despair. It got sealed an year ago, but I heard that in order to do so, a hundred mages had to sacrificed their lives...."

The image of the black Eternal Prison orb flashed back into Yakiro's mind.

"An year ago". Seemed like the time stamp was different between this world and the real world.

"It was so terrible..." Yomina commented

"Luckily it got sealed away, so this hidden dungeon is not under its control anymore. I hope it will be less dangerous."

Yakiro quickly opened the dungeon's door, revealing a dark twisted corridor.

He did it so fast, not because he was skilled, but because he wanted to get rid of the guilty feeling that was rising in his chest. He was then certain that his Barsackra was the most hated entity in this world.

If he get accessed to the seal, which located at the Ancient Dragon's lair, he would be able to regain his true power and became the destructive Barsackra once again.

Or, should he just give up on Barsackra's power, and lead a new life where he could grow normally, and fixed all the mistakes that he had done in the past?

Those questions swirled uncontrollably in his mind, but he guess he had to find it out himself. The most important thing right then was that he needed to repay Yomina for what he had done to her family.

Nothing could be compensated for the loss of her dear parents, but Yakiro hoped she would accept the rewards, so that the heavy burden inside his heart could be reduced a little bit.

----------------------------

Behind the rusty blue door was a dark corridor. It was so dark that even the bright sunshine of that day could only reach a quarter of its length. The cold, howling gust blew out from the inside, bringing the feeling of a tomb, or a place where a certain death was guaranteed.

"Erm... Yakiro... D..Do we..need...t..to..g..go..inside?"

Yomina shivered. From the tone her voice, she was indeed scared.

"I will ensure you safety. Don't worry."

"B...but y..you are just a L...Level 1... person."

She was right. It was true that by common sense, there was no way a Level 1 could protect a Level 20. It was a 20-freaking-level difference.

But that common sense could not be applicable because she was literally going with this dungeon's landlord.

"Well it's up to you. After I enter, the door will not close. I cannot guarantee that there will be no vengeful spirits come out and haunt you from dawn to dusk..."

Then Yakiro expressed an evil smile.

"...and if I die in there, I will return and haunt you every nighttttttttt hehehehe ~~"

"KYAAAAAA.... Alright, alright I'll go with you. Please stopppp,"

The lifeless Yomina dragged her heavy steps along with Yakiro.

In just a few seconds, the pair was engulfed in total darkness. The little bit of sunlight faded away from Yomina's sight, which aroused her scaredy nature. She just hung on the back of the man above her like a little cat trying to hang on a life saving branch. Everytime there was a sound, while Yakiro just ignore it and kept on walking, Yomina felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Being too familiar with the terrain, Yakiro walked normally because he knew where the dangers could be, and where didn't have any dangers.

But his heart was still pounding nonstop.

The reason came from the two soft jiggling meat balls that were pressed extremely hard on his back.

"How the f... can it be this big?" He thought in his head

Yakiro was not a high school student. In fact, he had already in the final years of college. However, as every male creature's instinct, he could not help but look at Yomina's cleavage the first moment they met.

But they were no where near this size !

May be the styles of her clothes had helped her in hiding the size of these organic weapon.

They were also soft and squishy too.

They were also in the dark, so if he touched it a little and blame the action on some kind of monsters, she would probably not notice that.

"Kyaaaa !"

"What happened Yomina?"

"S-Something...just...grabbed my... breast."

Surprisingly, Yakiro's arms were still in front of him. Therefore, there must have been something that examined that golden area before he had the chance.

And did she say "grabbed"? Not "touched" or "slided", but "grabbed"?

Yakiro gritted his teeth. If he had the power of Barsackra there, he would certainly blasted the whole dungeon to find out the culprit who had stolen his chance of being the first one in this dungeon to reach that treasure.

"This corridor do not have any monsters. There will be an exit at the end, so I think we should be hurry up... before your breast got touched again." Yakiro assured.

"Y...Yes, let's go..."

Honestly speaking, that culprit already ruined Yakiro's mood. He just wanted to get out of there fast.

After the dark corridor, what showed before their eyes was a grassfield filled with colorful and aromatic flowers, but surrounded by stone walls. In the middle of the field, a few white rabbits wandered here and there, while nibbing some leaves inside their adorable mouth. They looked so fluffy.

"They are so cuteeeeeee !!!" Yomina put her hands on her cheeks. It was the first time she witnessed adorable animals inside a dungeon. Previously, what she heard were just "monsters, goblins, orcs,..." and things like that.

The beige haired girl was about to dash immediately to cuddle with an innocent rabbit, which was staring at her with its cute small round eyes.

But all of a sudden, her companion quickly yanked her neck, making her jump a few steps backwards. The rabbit was startled and ran away.

"Look what did you do ! I was about to get a hold on one of them !" Yomina pouted at Yakiro.

"Well sorry about that, but do you bring any kind of food?" He asked.

"You are hungry already?"

"Not really, but just to show you what these rabbits truly are."

Yomina searched her backpack, and found a cracker that she prepared to be used as a snack. She handed it to her black-haired companion.

"Watch this closely."

Yakiro threw the cracker near a fluffy rabbit.

It looked straight at the cracker for a few seconds...

...before opened its wide mouth filled with countless sharp fangs and swallowed the cracker in just one bite.

To describe the scenario, it was similar to how a fierce shark devoured a fish with its gigantic jaws, but in this case, it was a fluffy shark in the shape of a rabbit.

"Yiekkkkk !" Yomina screamed. Luckily, Yakiro covered her mouth on time.

"You see, if you approach and try to hug them, your hands will end up like that cracker."

"How the heck can that kind of rabbits exist??" The beige haired lady was about to lost her conciousness.

"This dungeon is filled with surprise anyway. Those are called [Carnivorous Rabbit], and believe it or not, each of them is at least Level 25 and they love meat (especially human meat). The last time I been here, one of my old teammates tried to touch them, and you know what happened?"

"N...No..?"

Yakiro again launched a psychopathic smile towards his trembling companion.

"Hehehehe. She lost all of her fingers in just a few seconds. Can you imagine the scenario when a person without any fingers is trying to run away with her nonstop bleeding hands?"

"NOOOOOOO ! THAT'S SO CREEPYYYY !!!!"

Of course it was totally a made up story, but this air-headed Yomina was so easy to be tricked. Yakiro would have laughed so hard if they were outside.

"Ribbit... Ribbit..."

When the pair regained their normal sense, they were startled to see a Carnivorous Rabbit in front of them.

No, not one. It was a whole pack of them that were locking their sharp eyesight towards the two people.

Holy crap. Yomina's scream must have attracted their attention.

Did they really need to look at them while flashing their bloodthristy teeth in front of their face? Could they just be the small fluffy bunnies?

The pair stood there like statues. They felt like if they just moved for one inch, those bunnies would rushed in an eat them for lunch.

"Yomina, do you see the door over there?"

Yakiro waved his head towards a steel door at the end of the grassfield. Its appearance did not match with the colorful grassfield at all, so it totally stood out.

"Y...Yes."

"There is a button at the bottom of the door. Press it 4 consecutive times and the door will open. I will meet you behind that door."

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to attract their attention. You run straight to that door, open it and wait for

me behind it."

"That's too dangerous ! I can't let you..."

Yomina stopped in the middle of her sentence when she caught Yakiro's stern eyes. She felt like his eyes were both saying "I know what I'm doing" and "Trust me girl."

"I understand. Please stay alive."

Yomina said, and handed the man a HP recovery bottle.

"Yomina, if I don't make it through, I just want to let you know that there is an exit behind that door..." Yakiro took the bottle and looked straight at his teammate.

"Don't speak such a negative thing !"

"Hehe I'm just kidding ! Of course I will return, safe and sound !"

Yakiro directed his eyesight to the door.

"Now, when I count to 3, run as fast as you can to that door, open it, then go straight through it. You understand?"

"Yes."

Yomina said while readied herself.

Four eyes on the door.

They lowered their bodies and extended one leg backward to prepare running.

"GO ! YOMINA !"

Yakiro shouted, and immediately launched himself towards the other side of the room.

The bloodthristy Carnivorous Rabbits noticed his movement and immediately chased after him. They made a constant "Ribbit... Ribbit" sounds from their throat, while echoing rustling  noise when their feet dashed on the ground.

He tried to redirect the rabbits away from the steel door by choosing another path. They just kept chasing after him like a pack of hungry wolves following their meal.

Yakiro turned back.

A calm smile appeared on his lips as he saw Yomina safely crossed through the steel door.

Then a deadly rabbit jumped right on to his face.
