The Nameless Crown
Chapter 9 - Golems

“Elen... did you not realize that we were running in the same place?”

“Eh...”.

Ryan immediately kicked his own.

“Don't you not realize it at all?”

Elen showed a smile full of innocence with ease. However, Ryan could only sigh resignedly.

“Hehehehe.. sorry, sorry”.

“Forget it... first try to see that!"

Ryan also showed the castle on the cliff with the tip of his index finger.

“Did you see it?”

“Yup... I can see it, then?”

“By martabak cheese!” scream Ryan.

“Is that food? If so I want to taste it.”

Ryan's right hand was half up. The middle finger was held back by the thumb, it was like a rocket about to take off. When the thumb was loosened and a hard flick managed to jolt Elen's eel by a landslide.

“Ughuuuu..”.

Elen nearly toppled over and luckily he managed to maintain his balance.

“Fiuhhh... I finally managed to nudge someone again after a long time. Hear that! The castle's still the same, no matter how far we run, it looks further and further, do you tick?”

While stroking his eel who felt how sick it was to hit Ryan's flick, Elen nodded slowly.

“Good, then ..!”

For a moment, Ryan could feel something watching him from a distance. But—

“There!”

Ryan immediately turned around, jolting the ground with the power of his right foot and then disappearing into a dark shadow due to his Shadow Dash skill.

He lunged at a stone pillar that seemed to rumble. When he was on top of it, Ryan salted and slashed a rotating slash using a dagger.

When the Pillar was split in two and disappeared swallowed by the data. Their distance—Ryan and Elen became closer to the castle. A growling sound was heard after the pillar was defeated by Ryan's swift attack.

Then a little while later Ryan had returned to Elen's side.

“You understand now?”

In those two round eyes that were twinkling, Elen nodded meaningfully.

“ Whoaa~ brother, that was cool."

However, Ryan could only sigh long, then they went back to their destination which was above the cliff.

When they got there, they were confused. How can they go up there. However, they had suddenly encountered another Player.

“Yo~ are you planning on beating Boss on this first floor, man?”

The boss? first floor? it's not a Dungeon, is it? ryan was surprised.

“You mean Boss?”

“Yes, this is Boss first floor, lest you not know it?”

The player before him was a Knight. He had a silver Armor attached to his body. Her hair is black. Moreover, a shield with a square emblem in the middle of it.

A medium-sized sword he held with his right hand. Next to it are a few more players.

They seem to be a party. Did Ryan and Elen form a party?

With his feet, Ryan's head turned and looked at Elen who was excited to see a giant castle standing right on the cliff in front of him.

“E-Elen .. lest you come with me is... “

“Hehehe~ yup.. because we will beat Boss first floor~”.

With that tone of excitement, his face blossomed like a tree in bloom.

“But, we haven't created a Party” yet

“Sure... I'll just come, so we haven't joined in one Party, hihihi~”

Ryan's face began to growl. Why was he not told before. Moreover, Wendy only said that the Dungeon this time was a Dungeon without a more detailed explanation. Lest he forget to give the tone of quotation in his pronunciation.

“Tch... Wendy!!!” furious Ryan.

Elen only looked at Ryan's reddened face, but not flushed with embarrassment or pleasure. However, red with anger, then suddenly a water storage area appeared above Ryan's head.

The place descended slowly and splashed Ryan's head with water. So now Ryan is back to calm as ever.

“Finally~ Brother Ryan is calm also~”

“Elen... ”

“Hmm?”

A flick back floated and landed on Elen's eel perfectly. Makes it redder than it was before. Surprisingly again Elen's HP bar did not decrease at all.

At that time Ryan was very happy, because the jolt would continue if only Elen made him upset again. Just as Elen stroked back his sick eel while groaning, as he raised his head to look at Ryan.

He became creepy and a loose voice like Hii came out just like that, because Ryan's face was now smiling demon.

“Then do you guys also want to defeat this first floor Boss?” ask Ryan.

The silver-armored knight nodded.

“Ya... we are here to beat him. Uh! Introduce me is Andre.”

The Indonesians!? ryan was surprised.

“Three of my friends also participated in the attack Boss, this is Rokh..”.

Rokh, a Lancer who holds a long spear. His hair is red and he has a Sprigan race. A pair of transparent wings sticking out from his dashing back.

His eyes were pale red and his face was impressed by a good person even though Ryan did not know it at all. It has fairly simple armor compared to the players I met before.

Only a Hakama with one arm is absent. Hakama color is also black whitish. With her waist wrapped around by a red Obi.

“Then next is Sera.”

An Archer with an Elf race. Having light green hair that is allowed to decompose, both ears are long. Her eyes have a beautiful color, which is bright yellow.

His body is quite ideal, his face is quite beautiful. The armor she wore was like a white but not transparent combat dress. The skirt is split so that it does not limit it when it moves.

A long bow was stuck to his white back.

 last “Dan is...”

Ryan has a bad feeling about this, because the last member Andre knew was someone he knew and was quite annoying.

“... Elesis, she is our last member.”

After introducing all the members of his Party, Andre shook Ryan's hand with enthusiasm.

“Then with you?”

“Ahh .. he-hehe, sorry. You can call me—“

“Ryan! Hehehe,” cut Elen as fast as lightning.

Suddenly, the members of Party Andre whispered to each other. Ryan who felt it was a little piqued, in his mind now was wondering what they were whispering and muttering.

There was nothing strange about him at all. However, Ryan is not bothered because of that, he is more disturbed when Elen cuts his words.

“Yes! I'm Ryan and this is Elen!”

With his big hand, Ryan clutched Elen's tiny head with his right hand. Elen tried to bully but his efforts were in vain when he saw the look on Ryan's face that was grim.

“Ampuni hamba~”

However, for the umpteenth time Ryan could only sigh .

In the end, Ryan let go of that grip. He was quite surprised to see Andre and the rest of the Party chuckling as he saw himself with Elen so very familiar.

“Is something wrong?”

“Famous?”

Andre nodded slowly.

“Seven famous Players.. and Elen that you had clutched was one of them. His nickname is The Fallen Noble.”

Ryan whistled in amazement and then he looked at Elen who was still holding his head because of pain due to the grip of Ryan's hand.

“That's true, Elen?”

“Unn... huuuu, Brother Ryan you are evil!”

Two cold eyes were again seen by Elen. The look given by Ryan was cold and haughty.

“I never said I was good,” he said flat.

“Ughuu..”.

Elen's words succeeded in the key by the sharp words of Ryan.

“Huhhh... then how are we going to climb this steep cliff?”

Andre held his own chin. He seems to be thinking about it too.

Sera and Rokh also seem to be thinking. When he saw Elesis, Ryan felt that there was something strange about him..

He knew the Elesis he knew before was quite annoying, but at the same time pleasant.

Unlike the Elesis he now looks at. The hair color may be the same, silvery white. However, his hairstyle is not in two but deliberately in the booth to cover the ears and touch both shoulders.

Her clothes might be the same, but there was something strange about her. Either that was his attitude or Elesis intentionally did not greet him.

The thought instantly disappeared when a large voice accompanied by a shock that was quite great made them—Ryan, Elen, Andre, Rokh, Sera and Elesis sway.

“What is it!?”

The one who first realized something that stuck was Sera the Archer.

Then all the attention was on a big shadow. Covered by thick brown dust.

Stand a shadow five meters high or less.

His presence makes Ryan and the others enter combat mode. Their weapons were ready to attack the creature.

But suddenly Elesis stopped them with a very calm word.

“Wait a minute.”

They were stopped, but unfortunately the arrows released by Sera could not stop.

Like water that has been spilled, all of it has been done and can not be stopped just like that. The slash of the arrow pierced through the cluster of dust like a giant fog.

The sound of a jolt rang out and from the direction of the fog something came out and landed in front of Sera. He did not expect that it was the arrow he had just released because of the accident when he heard the words of Elesis who was trying to stop him.

After the fog fades. A large one-eyed silhouette was visible. It was a giant Golem.

Somehow their tension eased after Elen stepped forward with his little legs. With a giant Halbert within his grasp, Andre calmed down.

Ryan could only tilt his head.

“Be careful lah”

“Ryan, you'll find out why he has Title as Fallen Noble. Not only is he strong or agile, but—“

Ryan's attention broke and immediately saw Elen who was attacking the Golem brutally. Not only was he brutal, but he also had no expression in his every attack.

It can be said to be strong, perhaps. Can be said to be agile, maybe. It can be said to be heartless, it can be.

Since the light in both eyes could already be said to be no more, it might have been left.

However, when the Golem was attacked with a combination of double attacks and rounds. Still he had not fallen, the parts of his body that were destroyed re-integrated. The regeneration rate he had was extremely high.

Then when Ryan turned his head and looked at the Golem's parameter status. How surprised he was when he saw the HP bar of the Golem was not reduced at all.

“Elen, stop that as soon as possible!”

Ryan's shout succeeded in making Elen's consciousness return to normal. The light in both eyes had returned. However, he was caught off guard and was blown away by the Golem attack.

“Aww! Brother, why did Brother stop me!?”

The protesting Elen was not responded to by Ryan in the slightest. Even Andre, Sera, Rokh and Elesis were confused by him.

Ryan pointed at the Golem that was now walking towards them, Elen immediately looked at the direction Ryan pointed.

He could not say anything even his eyes were now widened from not believing at all.

“You better think well if you want to attack a Monster that can not be harmed at all or have the status of Unknown.”

Before them an unharmed Monster stood up. His large figure makes Ryan, Sera, Andre, Elen, Rokh and Elesis must be on full alert.

From his red eyes a bright red light shone. It was at that time that Rokh warned them all to immediately avoid the Golem's distance of sight.

When his eyes shone brilliantly, an arrow red light attack shot out so quickly. Its attack trajectory was straight, but it had great destructive power it almost blew the place to formless.

Fortunately at the right time, they all dodged perfectly. No one had any injuries or reduced HP. All survived, but they didn't believe just that with the great attack.

Whether the Golem was the Boss of this floor or just an ordinary Monster that had an abnormal status. Everything has not been explained in just a few minutes.

“Did anyone get hurt?”

Behind the fog of dust that again appeared due to the devastating attack, Ryan shouted in search of Andre and the others.

“We're fine, how about your Party friends?”

That voice must be Rokh, Ryan thought.

“I don't know, Elen... How about you?”

Ryan's body, which is being knocked down with his chest touching the ground, is now looking for Elen's whereabouts.

“I better get up soon or—akhh....what is this!? Weight!”

When Ryan wanted to lift his body, there was a stinging feeling in his strong back. As Ryan tried to see what had just happened with his back, a shadow darkened, but as it was covered in a brown dust fog he could not see the figure due to the thickness of the dust fog.

“Ahcooo!!~”

“Ahh... Elen is that you?”

Only for a moment did Ryan get a bad feeling with that sneezing sound.

“Ouu... So where I sit is Brother Ryan's body?”

In it was his deepest heart, this time he really wanted to grip Elen's head even harder.

“Aww. What are you doing you little monster!”

“Back sister Ryan~ hehehe ~ kayak horseback~”

Ryan's patience is running low.

“Hihaaaa~”

And finally, Ryan got up and dropped Elen who was on his back. A small jolt sound was heard along with a slightly loud “Ouchh” sound.

Ryan turned around, facing Elen who was still sitting. Then gripped him firmly.

Elen paled and rebelled unfortunately it was all for nothing, because in front of him now there was a demon peeking from the crevices beside Ryan's head. With her eyes red and had two horns soaring upwards.

Several spirits were seen around him. Making Elen break out in a cold sweat on the side also now started to smile cynically.

“Basic little monster! This is your punishment for comparing my back to a horse's back!”

Elen let out a small cry hysterically. Suddenly Andre's voice appeared and asked what was going on with the two of them.

However, Ryan replied with only “Ok, nothing happened, kok” like that.

The long voice of “HIIII” shrieked loudly at that very instant. After the dust fog disappeared and made the whole view clear again. Andre looked confused because he saw Ryan who was smiling was relieved while Elen was holding his head again.

Again their attention was distracted by the Golem raising its hand.

Ryan broke up a little while smiling awkwardly.

“It looks like it's not as easy as what I imagined.”
