Load Full StoryNext Chapter???? Pov
I walked into Com-a-con dressed as my favorite brave frontier character. I dressed as Fencer Vargas but, I couldn't find his sword no matter how hard I tried to find it. As we walked around, I met with other brave frontier fans, took photos and, looking for the sword.
"Hey, Fencer Vargas!"
I turned and saw a man dressed as Thunder God Eze. I noticed he had weapons, books, and 'holy shit the sword!' I quickly walked over and reached for the sword but, the man laughed as he looked at me.
"Guess I have what you need for your custom. Tell you what if you can answer a question you can have a book free of charge as well as the sword."
I smiled as I looked at him. "Ok, what's the question?" He smiled as he looked at me.
"What is the most powerful attack a brave burster in the game?"
I smiled as I looked at him. "Overdrive Brave buster obtained when the main hero is evolved to the max and has/his or her brave buster at level ten." He laughed, then pushed the sword over to me, then pulled a book out from under the table. I took the book, and I looked over it. It was a black book with a red gem on the front. Then I opened it and saw it was just like the game monster list with a name and number with each monster or hero. But, they were all blank but had all the evolution monsters and items near the back with a level up a circle. There was also some kind of gems embedded in the circle. I didn't find anything else, so I put the book in a side bag, I had and grabbed the sword by the handle then put it on my shoulder. "Thanks, but why is the book blank?" He looked at me, a smirk on his face.
"You have to fill then in with all-new heroes and monster, so good luck."
He snapped his fingers, and everything went back.
Twilight pov
I saw in my dark crystal castle looking over jobs for adventures, but we had none in town. None of the ponies have the will or ability to fight off monsters or bandits. I sighed as I stood up from my bed and looked at myself in the mirror in my room. I saw my reflection and smiled as I put my hands behind my head then looked at myself. I saw myself in my black bra and panties. I smiled as I looked at myself and frown. 'If only I were a higher level, fifty-six isn't the best. I wish I were level one-fifty like Celestia and Luna.
"Hey, Twilight!"
I blushed as I quickly ran over to my bathroom as Spike walked into the room. I looked back out the door, a snarl on my face. "Knock before coming in!" He rolled his eyes then threw a packet on the bed. He walked out of the room and, I walked out after I was sure he was gone. I picked it up, then opened it, and I went red-faced as I looked at the papers. More job postings from Luna. "FOR BU...!" I stopped mid-yell as a loud crack rang out, and before I knew what was going on, something crashed down on my balcony. Cracks spread out from the impact, and I looked at the balcony. I saw a body laid out in the rain. I grabbed my bath rob then grabbed my magic staff from beside my bed. I charged a thunder spell as I walked over to the door and. I pulled the doors open, slowly waiting to see if the body moved until I opened the door. I looked down at a large man with light armor on with a red shirt and pants under his chest plate and hip guards. He had guards on his fist with a cape on with a massive sword beside his head full of red hair. A bag was on his side, and I noticed a book sticking out of the top. I pocked him a few times in the side of his chest, not covered by armor, then he coughed, then his eyes started to open.
Fencer Vargas pov
My body was aching all over, and I felt like my head was spinning. The next thing I felt was cold water hitting me. I was lying on the ground, then I noticed something pocking my side. I opened my eyes and looked up and saw a stunning woman looking down at me. She was a tall, slender woman with purple hair with a bright pink highlight in the center. She had bright purple eyes and a beautiful body.
"Are you alive? If you're dead, can I have that book?"
I saw a black lace bra and panties from under a bathrobe. "N-no." She blinked then looked down at her body. Her face turned bright red then she looked down at me.
"PERVERT!"
She brought the staff down quickly and, everything went black. I awoke a few hours later, my head throbbing as I laid on my side. I blinked a few times then tried to move, but I couldn't move my arms or legs. I looked down at my body and saw ropes around my chest then I decided to try my hands, they were tied behind my back, and I tried my feet. I couldn't move my feet at all, either. I moved my feet forward, seeing a rope around my ankles. 'Well, fuck me, how'd this happen?' I looked around and noticed my sword or that book were gone. Then I remembered the pocket knife I had hidden in my boot. I pulled my feet close to my hands as I could then felt around the top of the inside of the boot. I smiled as I grabbed the knife then pulled it out of the boot. I opened the knife then started to cut away at the ropes around my ankles. After a few seconds of awkward cutting, I was free to stand again. 'Ok, only a little more.' I turned my knife in my hand then started to cut the ropes holding my hands. After a little more awkward cutting, I dropped the knife as I snapped the rope the rest of the way. With my hands-free, I reached a little higher up my back then found a knot.
"This way, girls!"
I heard yelling and, I knew I was in trouble from the way I was being held. I quickly started to undo the knot, and I had it a second later. The ropes fell to the ground, and I put my knife away before the girl who knocked me out around a corner, and I noticed bars. 'A jail cell?' We locked eyes and, she looked at me, shocked.
"How did you get out of these binds!?"
I looked at her for a second then frowned as I crossed my arm. I smiled, hiding my fear as I looked at her. "Um, miss, can I ask you a question?" Five more girls ran in front of the bars and looked at me. She looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
"Sure?"
"What happened?"
"You crashed on my balcony."
I nodded then sat down as they looked at me. "Do you see anyone else?" They all looked at one another, a woman with puffy pink hair popped her head through the bars. I was a little shocked and fell back on the ground, then I shuffled away, trying to get away from her. She had a massive smile on her face as she looked at me.
"Do you like parties!?"
"Um, ya?" She smiled, then pulled her head back out of the bars and ran off. I blinked then looked at the other as I pointed to the way the girl went. The girl sighed, then rubbed her eyes then looked at me again.
"Don't mind her, my party is a little strange. Now, why did you land on my balcony, and who else could have fallen there?"
I took a second to regain my composure then I started to talk. "Thunder God Eze, I was with him before everything went back, and the next thing I knew, you were pocking me with a stick." All of them looked at me shock on there faces as they looked down at me.
"You were speaking with a god?"
A girl dressed as a cowgirl with a large battle-ax on her back spoke up. I looked at her then knew if I couldn't explain that now. "Look all that aside, I have to get moving. I have to figure out how the book works." They all looked at me, then I saw the book in one of the girl's hands. She was a tall woman with long, light pink hair with a bag on her side.
"This book?"
I smiled as I looked at her; then, she held the book out to me. I smiled, but as I reached for it, the woman who knocked me out snatched it. She opened it and found the blank slots, and looked through the whole thing then stopped on the back of the book. She looked at the end covered then turned it to face me.
"What is this?"
I shugged my shoulders as I looked at her. "Not sure myself. " She looked down at me for a second, then scoffed and threw it over to me. I grabbed it then noticed a glow when I caught it. The red gem glowed then shoot out a red light over the girls in front of me. Once it was done, the book forced itself opened then pages turned quickly. It stopped near the end, and images of all of them formed. We looked at the book for a second, then I touched the image of the light pink-haired girl. A picture of her came out of the slot and a list formed under the image.

"I see this is a stats book, it recorded anything that had a set of the stat. Now that gives me an idea, the circle may be a fusion circle." All of them looked at me, then the first girl spoke up.
"Fusion circle?"
I smiled as I looked at her. "A fast way to level up, meaning you use monsters you defeat and tame then fuse with them. It turned them into pure energy, and you take power from them and adds power to yourself."
"A fast way to level up!?"
The Rainbow haired yelled reached for my book, but, I held it away from her. "Hold up, I don't even know how that works yet. It could be dangerous if we try anything with it." She frowned then gave up trying to grab it. I smiled as I opened the book again then looked at her image. I looked at her description again. I noticed something at the bottom, and I smiled.
"What?"
I smiled as I looked at her, then I stood up and walked over to her. All of them looked at her page as I pointed at it. "It seems you have a power attack. It appeared to be a one-shot attack that uses a significant amount of power. It's call thunder shot with a fifty-fifty shot of a one-shot kill." She smiled as she looked at the book, then she looked at the other woman.
"Twilight, we should let him out, he doesn't seem to want to hurt us at all."
"No."
They all looked at me as I closed my book. "Right now, this is the best place for me. Until all of you can trust me, this cell will be fine."
"Are you sure?"
Fluttershy spoke as she looked at me. She seemed scared as she looked at me. I smiled as I looked at her, and in my most calming tone, spoke. "Miss Fluttershy, I'm fine staying here for now. " She smiled as she looked at me, then she waved for the others to follow her. I smiled then started to look in my book and found me. I checked it and saw I was level one and had all of Vargas stats and brave buster. 'Only six right now guess as I meet others, it will fill in. I looked at the fusion circle, trying to think of how it would work. I smiled as I looked at the book then I heard metal on metal. I looked up from the book and saw The cowgirl opened the door then walked in with a tray of food. She smiled as she looked at me.
"I've got your dinner."
I smiled as I looked at her. "Thanks." She handed me the food, and she sat down on the bed beside me, the battle-ax she had before gone.
"So, what level are you?"
I took a bite out of a piece of bread then looked at her. "Level 1." She looked at me shocked but laughed a second later.
"Oh, you're messing with me; there no way someone your age is level 1."
I grabbed my book, then opened it to the first page then held it out to her. She looked at the book, then found my image then read over the page. She looked between me and the book a few times then spoke.
"How are your stats so high with such a low level?"
She shrugged my shoulders as I looked at her. "Don't know but, hey got to start somewhere." She looked at me for a moment, then set the book and walked out of the cell. I laughed a little then started to eat the food. When I had finished the meal, I set the tray over in the side and laid down on a small bed in the corner. I woke up to someone grabbing me and pulled me out of bed. I looked up at the offender and saw it was the cowgirl.
"Come with me."
She pulled my sword off her back then dropped it in front of me. I grabbed it, then she lead the way out of the castle. "Why are you doing this?" She looked back at me, a frown on her face.
"Twilight is going to have you sent to the capital prison for a trumped-up charge of peeping on her. We may be her party, but we don't think the same as her, so I'm letting you escape."
"Thanks, I promise I'll pay you back someday." She smiled as she pointed to the main door. I nodded, then ran up to the door, then pushed it open and ran out into the night. As I ran, I saw a train station and decided that it was my best bet. The train was starting to move, and I jumped on the back of the car on the train. The train began to speed up, heading away from the town. I sighed as I sat on the roof, watching the town fade away. As I rode down the tracks, I grabbed the book, then started to look and tried to find something that would help me. Nothing was there that could help me, so I closed the book and drew my sword and laid back on the train top. "Damn, I can't believe I was going to go to prison for something that happened by accident." I closed my eyes as I laid on the roof, waiting to see where we were going. I rode off, waiting for the train to stop.
Next morning Twilight pov
"WHERE IS HE!?"
I screamed as we ran around the town looking for the redhead swordsman. We saw him gone when I woke up this morning, and we couldn't find him anywhere. I stomped down the main street wanting to blast his face with a massive fireball.
"Twilight!"
I looked up at the sky as Rainbow came flying down, bow in hand. She landed and looked at me with a frown on her face. A few people saw a man jump onto the top of the last train to manehatten. It's been twelve hours, so odds are he'll long gone by now." I kicked a stone, and I looked up the road. I looked at the train station and feel my blood start to boil as I looked at it. 'I'm going to find you!'
Fencer Vargas pov
I opened my eyes and saw the forest ran too after getting out of the city. 'I guess I should get moving.' I stood up and grabbed my sword, quickly pulling it from the ground. I hooked the sword on my back then pulled my book back out. I turned back to my image and saw my stats again.

'Um, maybe I can find a guild to join up with my level needs to be higher through. Those girls questioned it, and I can't have anyone else questioning it.' I closed my book then put it back into my side bag. I stepped out to the tree line and onto a dirt road. "I'm going on a quest." I headed back into the city, heading for the guildhall. 'Hopefully, I can get work without being part of the guild.' I followed the signs and quickly found the massive guildhall. I smiled as I walked up to the doors the pushed one door open. I saw dozens of people walking around, all the armor and weapons. People of all heights and sizes and so many looked so experienced. 'Hm, I may have more work ahead of me then I thought.' I walked in and closed the door as I walked up to a counter. A woman dressed in a butler-like suit. I walked up to the bar, and one stepped up to me. She was a darker-skinned with an almost scale-like pattern in her skin. With a set of small horns on the sides of her head bearly covered with red hair.
"Hello sir, how can I help you?"
"Yes miss, I was wondering if you have any work for someone looking for work."
"Are you looking to join the guild?"
I nodded as I looked at her. "Not at this time, but I need to get some income coming in." She smiled then pointed to the right wall. I looked over to the wall and saw a smaller listing board.
"That board is for people of the city, and if you take a few, you can earn a pretty big pay for a day's work."
I smiled as I looked at her. "Thank you, miss." I turned then walked over to the board, but a few guys stood in front of me. One was like the women, and the other was a mage in a long white cloak with a staff with a blue crystal.
"Well, well, fresh meat."
I nodded my head then turned to go around them. "I've not interested in fighting you guys please let me find some work." I walked around them, but the scaled guy grabbed my shoulder. My body lashed out, and I grabbed him, then kicked his legs out from under him, then threw him over my shoulder; he slammed down to the ground and coughed out the air from his body. I let his arm go and looked down at his body and saw he was out cold. 'Did my body just react on its own?' I looked at the mage, and he back up, hands up in the air staff on the ground.
"Hey, hey, we're cool. I didn't mean any harm."
I nodded then walked up to the board. I looked around the board and found two for slaying slimes and a few timber wolfs. I took both then walked over to the counter. The same woman looked at me, shocked as I sat the posters down. "I'll take this, two ma'am." She snapped out of it, then nodded as she quickly pulled out a quill and a sheet of paper.
"Ok, all I need to finish this is a name to take down."
I stopped then smiled and adopted my new name for this crazy new life.
"Fencer Vargas."
She smiled as she wrote my new name down before I walked away posters in hand. I walked out of the hall then walked through seeing everything. I walked for half an hour until I walked into a field sword in hand as I looked around. I need to collect twenty slime cores that held their bodies together. I looked around then noticed a few blue and green blobs moving around near a small stream. I smiled as I walked over to them, then swung my sword down at one. It seemed to hit the slime three times. A bar appeared above the little monster, and as my blade hit, it dropped a red line like in the game. It turned black; then it turned to a blue mud pie with what looked like a blue gem. I grabbed the core then put them in a bag I got from the scaled woman. I quickly started to kill off the others and soon had the twenty I needed. I put my sword on my back then looked around, wondering where I would find the timbers wolfs. 'Well, guess the forest in the area will work.' I started to jog up into the forest then I heard someone yelling.
"AH!"
I drew my sword and ran in quickly, trying to find the screaming as it seemed to be coming from all around the forest. Then through the trees, I spotted a blue glow, and I jumped through an opening in the trees. I landed and saw two women in a blue dome with a vastly large wooden wolf with more than a dozen smaller ones around the big one. The two women were a little of the younger side, maybe seventeen or sixteen. One is leaning on a tree holding onto her shoulder. Her shoulder had a large amount of blood coming from a wound on it as well as her leg. She was a large slight brown-skinned woman with long white hair with purple bangs with what looked like gauntlets. The other women were a whiter skinned woman a few shades lighter than mine way. She was must be a magician's aid suit with a long cape and hat with stars all over them both with a wand in hand. The woman saw me as I looked at them.
"HELP!"
I gripped the handle of my sword with both hands, and a few wolves turned to look at me. "Well, fuck it!" I took off then slashed the first wolf when it jumped at me. The heat of the blade from my fire element made burns for on the wolf as I drug the edge along the wolf's whole side. It dropped down, died, and then a slashed formed on the right rib cage of the giant wolf. The red line formed above it, then a part of it went down. I realized I didn't have to fight the boss if I can kill enough of the underlings. I jumped at another wolf then took off the wolf's head, dropping it to the ground with a slash formed on the back of the neck of the monster. I jumped back when two tried to jump me from both sides and noticed a blue bar in the far right bottom of my vision. I looked down at it then saw it was a brave buster gage, and it was a quarter full. 'Oh, fuck ya.' I jumped back at one of the wolves and cut two more of them down two more marks formed finally naming the beast stop attacking the dome. Now all of them looked at me, and I stared back at the nine of them. "Get out of here! I'll buy you as much time as I can!" The woman nodded as they beast charged me as her dome dropped. I ducked and dodged as they jumped and snapped at me. I swung my sword at them, cutting off legs and cutting deep into the wooden bodies.
"Come on!"
I heard the women yelling out to me, but leaving now wasn't an option. I looked down at the bar, and I need a little more, and I could hammer them with it when it's full. I kept fighting, and once only fore small ones were left, the giant started to attack as well. I dodged a paw that slammed down and destroyed the ground sending rocks flying, but then it turned so fast, and I couldn't block or dodge it. It slammed his back paw into my stomach and sent me flying through a tree and into a massive rock. I chacked up a mouth full of blood, and my health bar popped up. I had lost half of my health, and I fell to the ground, my body screaming as I tried to move the monsters getting close. I forced my body up slowly as they started to circle me; I used my sword as I staff as the boss monster snarled down at me.
"Cast fire!"
I looked passed the wolves and saw the mage casting a spell. I fireball flew at the large timber wolf. It roared as it burned, and the last of the health was gone, then the other wolves caught fire. I smiled as the monsters died around me, and I noticed a giant orb about the size of the of a bowling ball in the burning body of the wolf. But, my body had taken a nasty hit-making every breath I took hurt as some blood dripped out of my mouth.
"Hey!"
I looked up as the woman ran up a green bottle in hand. She grabbed me and shook my body, so as I tried to pass out.
"You have to drink this, hey!"
I looked at her, and she hard long silver-white hair with soft purple eyes. She wrapped her right arm around me, then pulled the top out with her teeth then pushed it to my lips.
"Drink it before you pass."
I opened my mouth, then she turned the bottle, and a sweet liquid filled my mouth, and I drank it as best I could.
"There, just give it a moment for the magic to heal you."
I finished drinking, then a green glow formed around my body, and the pain faded from my whole body. I looked at my health bar and saw it was short of full at eighty-eight percent; the pain ripped through my stomach. I jerked up out of her grip and grabbed my stomach. "Ah!" I grabbed the ground and grabbed my mouth.
"If you're going to throw up, it's fine, and it's normal for the first time you drink a healing potion."
I crawled away, and just like she said, I threw up. I coughed a few times as I rested on my knees, and she patted my back.
"Don't fight it and just empty your stomach."
I coughed a few more times, and dry coughed a few times, then I rubbed my mouth before getting back up on my feet. I grabbed my sword as I stood steadying using the sword. "Thanks." She smiled as she helped hold me up.
"No, thank you. Gilda and I wouldn't haven't survived."
"What happened?"
I pulled then blade from the ground; then, we started to talk as she walked around looking at me.
"We were gathering herbs and some healing spring water. As we walked out, they started to charge us, and one jumped on Gilda and bit into her pretty hard."
"I came when I heard a scream, and that's what brought me running." She smiled as she looked at me.
"Well, we're grateful you came to the aid. But, let's get the cores before we go."
I smiled, then pulled out my book then turned to her. "Hold still for a second." The light shined on her then opened up to her image. I looked at her name.

She nodded as she looked at then we walked over to the wolfs. I put my book away then went about gathering all the cores. From the boss, I pulled out a massive core, and Trixie looked at me, shocked.
"A boss core!"
I smiled as I looked at her. "You killed it. You earned it." She smiled, then opened her side magic, then stretched it out wide. I dropped the orb inside the bag, and she gave me all the standard spheres. I smiled then saw I had eight more then I needed. I nodded then put them inside my pocket, wanting to try and raise my level a little.
"Come on, and I don't want to attacked again."
I nodded then we rushed out of the forest back into the field. I looked at the other woman as she sat on the grass, counting a few cores.
"Gilda smile cores?"
The woman looked at her, an annoyed look on her face.
"We need the bits, and they may be low value, but enough of them can pay the bills. As for this new guy, thanks for the save I was in a bad spot when you showed up."
I nodded, then pulled out my book and scanned her.

"Hm, a guardian and a Brawler don't like my chances if we got into a fight." She laughed as she looked then collected the cores.
"Your a lot smarter then you look no offense." I laughed a little then put my book away. "Oh, the name's Fencer Vargas, but call me Vargas if you don't mind."
"Ok, Vargas."
I held a hand out the other hand, then she took it, and I pulled her up onto her feet. We started to walk off, and I pulled out the extra orbs then tried something. I put one on the gem, and then it turned to energy, then the book flew open. The image of the wolf popped out at us.

I smiled as I put them all in then saw numbers eight in the upper right corner. I smiled as I closed the book, then we walked back into the city. I had explained that the book counted my kills and acted as a data log. They took it at face value, not thinking about the book's real value. We walked back into the guildhall and turned in our items, and they pulled out the boss core shocking everyone. They gave her a bonus of a hundred and fifty bits. I got fifteen bits from all my cores then Trixie slid some bits over to me. I looked at her, and she smiled as Gilda held a thump up. I smiled then nodded my head that the two then I tied then to my side.
"Hey."
I looked at the two, and they pointed to the mainboard.
"We're going to go on another quest, you game?"
I smirked, then nodded my head, and they smiled as they looked at me. We walked over to the board.
"With you on board, then we have a lot more help so we can take on the higher-paying quests."
I nodded, then we all looked around, and Trixie spotted one.
"Here's a good one."
She pulled down a piece of paper with the image of a large group of skeleton drawn on it.
"We'd have to go and wipe out a hoard of undead that comes out at night in the cities graveyard. We'll need to get some more stuff, and nightfall is about seven hours away. The reward is based on the number and rank of undead we kill. Low-level undead will fetch us two bits each and much higher rank ranging from five or ten for low-level liches or any undead knights. Vegas, we'll go and come back to get you in a few hours."
I nodded, then they walked off, and I walked back up to the counter. "Hello, miss?"
The same girl from before walked over.
"Yes?"
"Do you know where I can get a room?" She smiled as she looked at me then pulled open a drawer under the countertop. She dipped a quill in an inkwell then wrote something down, and after a second, she passed it to me. I looked down at it then saw the name Slivers moonlight.
"It's the name of a house where an older woman rents to members before they sign up and join the guild. It's right down the road, and you make a right and then a left, and you'll see a large house. I think she rents for fifteen bit beats renting for a hundred or two hundred bits."
I smiled then nodded as I looked at her. "Thank you?"
"Call me, Star."
"Very well, thank you, Star." I waved goodbye, then turned and walked out of the guild. Then, I followed her directions and found the house she was talking about. It was a large house with a stone wall around it.
"Hello, sir."
I looked back and saw a woman with a cart and two men. The two were the same as before, but the women's hairs were starting to turn grey in a church like dress on with a short coat with white gloves. I bowed to her and stood straight back up as I looked at her. "Ma'am, I'm Fencer Vargas, and the people at the guild said I could rent a room here before joining the guard." She smiled as she looked at me, then walked over and held a hand out to me.
"Honey Bee, and if you want to rent, then you help around the house as well as pay fifteen bits a month."
I smile then nodded as I shock her hand. "Yes, ma'am, and here."
I pulled off my bit bag, and she took it. "There are sixty-five bits in there I'd like to go ahead and pay for three months." She smiled the took forty-five bits out. She put them in her bit bag, then gave me mine back, and I tied the bag back to my side. "Now that rent is paid, what would you like me to do for my first task?" She laughed then nodded her head as she looked over to a pile of wood.
"Please chop up some of that wood so we can have a fire tonight. Then then, I'll have your room ready."
"Yes, ma'am."
I pulled my sword off, then walked over to the wood and set up a chop block. I set one on then lifted my sword over my head. 'I need to train my swings and get good and used to this thing.' I set about cutting each piece into four pieces. Half an hour passed before I stopped and saw on the chopping block then wiped the sweat off my head. I looked back and saw only a little bit was left to be cut up.
"Oh, my!"
I turned my head and saw Honey Bee looking at me with a cup of tea on a tray. I smiled as I looked at her then stood up. "Give me another ten minutes, then I'll have the last of it cut." She held the tray with one hand the waved the other.
"No, no, that is more than enough. Honesty, we only need a little. What you cut will be more than enough for a month."
I smiled then put my sword on my back. I walked over and gave me the cup to which I downed it as I love sweet tea. Once finished, I chewed on the ice then gave her the cup back. "Thank you very much, I needed that. Oh, before I forget, two girls will come to get me so we can go on a quest later tonight."
"Oh, what kind?"
"Some undead in the graveyard at night. I'm of it as a trial run before forming a party." She nodded as we started to walk to the front door.
"Smart, making sure you work and fight well is very smart."
I smiled as we walked in, then she leade me to a room.
"Have a good night."
I nodded, then I opened the door then I looked around the room. It was a large room. There was a large single bed with a desk beside it with a nightstand on the other side. I walked int and saw a small restroom door open with a closet on the other side. I took my sword off then laid it on the headboard as I sat down on the bed, then pulled out my book and opened it to my first page and saw my name flashing. I tapped it then saw my level had gone up. I was level one, but I was now at level six. "What the?" I saw a new bar at the bottom of the image.
Exp point bar 880 total points
'What the hell? Brave frontier didn't have an experience point system outside of the arena. Wait, wasn't Fencer Vargas in the last summoner as well? Does that mean I'm the Fencer Vargas from the second game?' I turned to the back, seeing the circle glowing. I tapped it, then it flew up, and I saw the center flashing. I touched it, then a list starting with me popped up. It had Gilda and Trixie along with the others but not the puffy haired girl who ran off. I touched my image then it appeared in the center of the circle. I then topped the top circle, a then the image of the wolfs showed up. 'It is like the last summoner, so I can both fight and fuse to boost my level!' I smiled as I tapped all the circles then fused them, and in a flash, all the energy from them flew out of the book and flowed into me. I saw my level shot up to eleven, and my stats boosted up as well.
HP 1110
Atk 570
Def 500
REC 400
'Damn, my stats are crazy as hell, maybe I should party up with those girls if I keep leveling up, then I can payback the cowgirl in cash. I smiled as I closed my book, then I laid back on the bed.
"Hey, Vagas!"
I jumped as the door flew open, and I grabbed my sword, ready to fight. I saw the girls Gilda in anew chest plate and shoulder guards, and Trixie had a bread new staff. It was a large staff almost as tall as her body. I sigh as I nodded my head, looking at them. "You two need to knock before coming into a room." Gilda laughed as she walked over and grabbed my arm.
"Come on! The sun's going to set in two hours!"
I grabbed my sword as the two pulled me down the hall. I pulled myself free as Honey looked on a smile on her face.
"I'm sorry, but no overnight guest Mr, Vagas."
I blushed as they pulled me out of the front door. I sighed as I started to jog behind the two of them as I set my sword on my back. We slowed down to a walk as they started to talk.
"So, do you think a lich will be there too?"
"You never know, a Lich or undead knights could have formed by now if the undead have leveled up any."
I listened in as we walked up to a large set of iron gates.
"We have an hour, so let's get sent up and wait." They nodded, then I pushed the rusted gate open as far as I could. We broke up heading doe different areas of the graveyard. The two of them walked to the east and
Gilda pov
I sat on the ground my back on a rundown tomb. The sun had been down for an hour; then, I started to hear them.
"Rrrraagghhh."
I looked up, seeing a tone of low-level undead that looked just like I'd seen before. Six feet tall with torn up clothes and had a sword or spear in hand.
"Ya, they seem to be normal undead. Vagas will be fine dealing with these guys."
"Ya, I was worried about splitting up, but I wouldn't be surprised if he wipes out his half before we get halfway through this hoard."
I nodded as I charged in fist raised as Trixie cast defense boost my armor. I threw my first punch breaking the skull of the first skeleton then grabbed the spear it was holding. I turned swinging the spear quickly taking out the undead around me the cores in their chest were falling as they died. "Easy payday and experience!" I kept swinging, taking them down with Trixie picking off the ones that got behind me.
"Flare Ride!"
We looked up as a wave of flame flew over the hill heading straight for us. I jumped through the dead, but we were too late. The flames ran over us, but as I held my arms up to protect my face, but I wasn't getting burned. I uncovered my face and saw the flames going around Trixie and me, but the undead was being burned to ashes.
"FUCK!"
We watched as Vargas flew over the graves and stabbed his sword into the ground. We ran up to him as a group of higher-level undead knights came walking over burns all over their armor and bones. "How many!?" I slammed my gauntlets together as Vargas stood sword ready.
"Think all that's left is ten. There were more, but my Flare Ride took out the weaker ones."
I nodded, then Trixie cast more spells.
"Protection and attack boost!"
I smiled, and a smirk formed on Vargas's face.
"Let's do this, you undead freaks!"
He started to run at the group, and I smiled like his way of fighting. I jumped into the air, my wings forming. I climbed higher into the sky looking for the lich or necromancer controlling the undead. I didn't find either, but I did see something glowing in the center of the graveyard.
"Gilda!"
I looked back down, seeing Trixie and Vargas getting surrounded. Vargas was holding better then Trixi, but his armor and sword were taking a real beating. But, three undead knights lay on the ground. "I think I see what's making them undead just hold out for a minute!" I flew down, seeing the light on top of a tomb. I saw a massive undead core fixed to the front of the tomb. I pulled my right back and spikes formed on both knuckles sets. "Foe Breaker!" I delivered three powerful shots to the center of the core cracking and breaking it. When it was smashed, the undead erupted into purple flames, but I could still hear fighting. I flew back, seeing the undead knights still fighting with Trixie and Vargas. I landed on top of one of the more burnt knight. A baseball-sized core fell from its chest, then I grabbed another one then slammed my fist into the back of the skull of the next knight.
"About time!"
I looked back at Vargas as I cut the head off the undead knight in front of him. We quickly finished off the last of them and I smiled as I looked at our new party member.
