Stuck Between Two Worlds
duel between 3 friends

"maybe we've been overreacting" said dian.

"no, our strength is very weak." said Vinda.

"no, no... This is too much, I mean look at this place.. isn't this place really broken?" said dian.

"no, no, no, no. Don't worry, with the ability of this place will be back to being" said vinda.

"this base of you.." said dian annoyed.

"anu.... about your weapons... Who are you really?" zhaky asked a little scared.

"ohh.... This weapon? of course it's kam-.."

"ahh.. no, no. We found this weapon buried in ancient ruins! an ancient ruin!.." said vinda and dian gurgled while covering the mouth of the ria who almost leaked their secrets.

"ahh.. alright then, but still I feel curious" said zhaky while thinking of something.

"don't think about it. Let's go back to the guild" said vinda.

"no.. mumpung we are here, why don't we play first" said dian.

"ah!! fool around!! what are we going to play?! come quickly." said ria who suddenly immediately excited.

"uhh... nuisance only." said vinda limp.

"how about we have a fighting game" said dian.

"fighting game? " ask ria.

"well, you can fight at will with your opponent and who gives up he will lose"

"the power is interesting" said Vinda.

"well. I don't mind, it seems like fun." said ria while confirming the destroyed field.

"if the rules are simple, we will fight in the surrounding area.We can use magic, weapons, or bare hands. we are forbidden to use the help of the system for example exchanging points to order holy power or buy items, then let's start the fight.

"well. although the rules are annoying but it feels like I want to beat you" said Vinda.

"Hahaha, I won't lose that fast" said Dian.

"wait first? what about me?! " said ria after restoring the surrounding area.

"then let's start" said vinda, holding her bow.

"i don't know what they want to do, but it looks like they want to fight" said Zhaky watching as he stayed away from them.

vinda drew her bow and took aim at the lamp, but dian seemed to be running zic-zak outwit her bow and vinda's gaze while trying to attack with her sword.

"wait a minute.. Did they really fight? but, will the arrow user be able to defeat the sword user? if you look at it, the arrow user is superior at a distance than the sword user who is superior at close range" zhaky said in his heart while thinking who would win.

vinda took a step away from the trees to try to retrace the lamp, but no less cleverly he continued to slash the tree and make the vinda lose his chance to attack.

vinda who did not want to lose instead took careless steps by shooting dian without a shot and randomly hoping he was hit by his attack or an explosion from his attack, he said, and unexpectedly dian was scratched with arrows fired by vinda randomly.

"i don't know what to say. They fight horribly, they're like raging demons or can I call them heroes fighting demons? " said zhaky inwardly while continuing to watch their duel from afar.

"ihh.. ga yummy ah, their cooking is good to play while I'm here just quietly watching" said ria sad.

"loh? why did they stop fighting? "say zhaky curious.

vinda and dian suddenly stopped fighting due to feeling the presence of an incredible savage beast.

[opening an impromptu quest]

[you are required to kill all the monsters that attack out of the forest]

[species name: eastern forest tiger (type 8)]

[special gift: tier 7 super power core]

"what the fuck is this system?! " vinda was confused.

"what?!! but I don't squeeze-.. aahh!! you're right, there's a tier 8 tiger!!" zhaky shouted hysterically.

"well, they have a lot of. "said ria casually.

"in that case, we change the challenge of the game, so now, who kills the tigers the most then he is the winner" said Dian as he ran towards the tigers.

"t-wait, we're not comfortable-... "

"cats! attack it!! " say ria.

they also beat up the entire herd of level 8 beasts without the slightest residue.

"pussy.... Ehh?! where are the other animals?! " said ria while looking around the badly damaged one.

"wah..great! we've slaughtered them all" said Dian, clapping his hands.

"dumb basics..if so we continue dueling" said vinda while pulling his bow back to dian.

"ahh.... I'm bored.. btw, what was the gift of the system?" ask ria.

"Ohh that, he said the core of the power that we can use to make legendary high-level weapons" said dian explained.

"uhh. y'all ignored me" said vinda, lowering her bow.

"so how do you get the essence of what power is that?? " said ria belepotan while impatient.

"look at this! " says dian.

dian raised his hand towards the animals they had slaughtered and instantly a smoke-like aura came out and clumped in his hand, from the wisp of aura was formed the essence of level 8 strength in the form of large yellow crystal chunks even he objected to stiffen it.

"whether I should be happy or afraid but that power is terrible" said Zhaky from afar.

"wah!! they're coming closer! " cried zhaky while frightened.

seen vinda, ria, and dian approaching towards Zhaky want to ask immediately back to the guild.

"alright zhaky, we are satisfied to play. Now we want to go home and prepare for tomorrow" said dian.

"dad!! today was really fun "said ria happily directly into the horse carriage.

"no, no. It's very tiring" said vinda, sighing.

zhaky who was in shock immediately sat on the coachman's bench and ran his carriage without a word, they finally reached the guild and returned to their room after dinner.

"ahh.. is very tiring" said Vinda while dropping her body on the bed.

"fyuh...today is very fun...I am very satisfied hunting that tiger! " said ria excitedly while laying her body on the bed.

"ahh.. You are very right. "the words of the lampstand that also laid his body on the bed.

"t-wait a minute.. dian... do you remember what I once said about the special territory?! " say vinda while pushing push dian to get out of the mattress.

"ahh.. I don't know. " said dian while rolling on the mattress.

"basic pervert!! get out of this room!!! " cried angry vinda while throwing dian out of the room until hit the hall wall very strongly.

"ah!! pain.. ahh." said dian slowly while rubbing his head.

"hopefully your night is pleasant." said Vinda with her sinister face closing the door.

"wah.. so scary.

"now, what am I going to do outside of this?? " say back and sit on the floor.

"dian? are you the one over there, dian? " said the voice of someone from within the darkness of the passage.

"well?.. Who is it? " said as she continued to stare into the darkness.

"this is me. zhaky!" said the figure who turned out to be zhaky.
