The World Of Game Systems
Chapter 9 - Now it's Taka's Turn to Fight

“Which you promised that day, even more where your leader!”

Taka's cry by holding the sword covered in blood, broke the silence. He who was usually calm under any circumstances, suddenly became a different person at this moment. The gaze of the eyes filled with murderous lust as well as the two sword blades in his hands seemed to want to kill who would block him.

The world is full of problems that will follow all the journey. The match practice with Yogairu was finally finished, but after that Taka who arrived suddenly attacked the mysterious man. Like the word, out the crocodile hole into the tiger cage. The day of the surprise starts now.

“Jawab I'm a jerk!” Shouted Taka to the man in pain.

I was surprised by Taka, he's really like a killer right now. But, I was also curious why he didn't think twice before attacking the man, I mean Taka couldn't possibly attack an innocent person. This must have something to do with the problem he was facing, whether it was the past or the future.

“Haha, is that what a Knight does? Attacking someone without knowing their identity? It doesn't make sense!” Reply to the mysterious man from a distance.

“Whispering!” Taka said that by running over to her a second time.

*ting!

The sound of the swords hitting each other heated up the situation, this time the man realized that Taka was using both of his hands to attack.

Yogairu and I were silent to see Taka fighting there. Even the Yogairu I thought was close to him had no idea what this would be.

“A – Aoi what are you doing, let's help her!” take Yogairu while pulling out a small sword.

I still fell silent and saw the fierce fight between the two of them, while Yogairu ran up to them.

Knowing that, I immediately held onto Yogairu's arm and stopped her.

“Wait, we don't know the details yet. Isn't it better to make sure before acting?” Sahutku stopped.

“Release! Are we going to know the problem just by being quiet and looking at it? At least help him for now.” Reject Yogairu while pulling my hand and pushing me.

As Yogairu approached their fight, Taka yelled at him.

“Do not approach!”

At once the mysterious man threw a large bean-like bean of brownish color wrapped in clumps of foliage, though Yogairu managed to fend it off. But the seed exploded and emitted smoke.

And just then, Yogairu was in the middle of the smoke generated from the explosion of the seed. Suddenly he lost his balance and fell.

“Sial! Die you fuck!” Yells Yogairu with the body slumped to the ground.

Behind the white smog, Taka was still fighting deathly with the mysterious man, both of whom did not stop giving deadly attacks. Then, in the middle of a fierce fight, the man looked at me with a sharp gaze and threw the same seed earlier at me.

I managed to avoid throwing the seeds, but not with the explosion of smoke.

“Hold your breath and run! Don't breathe!” Taka exclaimed with a breath of gasps.

No time, before he said I had inhaled it. Although it did not smell, the smoke made my body paralyzed and unable to move, I fell glued to the ground.

I saw my body indicators all red, except for my head. My energy bar also disappeared, I don't know what to do. It looks like the seeds were made to paralyze all parts of the body except the head. With such a strong impact, it could have caused death in the long run.

“Your enemies are me, they have nothing to do with you!” Shouted Taka while continuing to attack with both hands.

“I should have told you that. My prey is them, not you!” The man was still firmly holding back all the powerful attacks that Taka had given him with a body full of blood.

My whole body is immovable, but my hearing is still clear. I could also see how sharp their sword swings were endlessly. Unknown words ‘lelah’ and ‘surrender’ every powerful attack is fended off with a sword firmly grasped, and vice versa.

Taka was supposed to be in a favorable state and could attack him head-on, unfortunately the use of the sword type affected the motion as well. The curved long sword that the man used easily covered the gap of Taka's attack, while the sword that Taka used was more effective in replying to attacks, arguably the type of attacker and defending. That term is basically ‘counter’ in fighting games.

Until the moment Taka lost his footing and balance, the man immediately used it by attacking the head. With quick body reflexes, Taka dodged the attack. However he was surprised when he saw the blood dripping on his hand, it turned out that his previous slash was not completely dodged, and gave a scratch on his cheek.

Without wasting any time, the mysterious man quickly kicked Taka in the stomach, and he was pushed down and fell on the ground. Unable to wake up, the man stepped on his hands and chest. Taka could not get up anymore, he could not do anything, only the sound of choking breath could be heard.

“Come, from the beginning we can have a sweet conversation first right?” Said the man while drawing the sword on Taka's body.

Taka simply fell silent and tried to move his stepped hand, but his footing grew stronger. He whimpers in pain.

“Liatlah stray dog is now tame, anyways I am not interested in this stray dog.” after saying that, he further pressed his footrest, then continued by stepping on – step on Taka's chest.

“Ahh, I feel a little sorry for you, so which do you choose? You dead? Or are your two friends coming with me?” He said by pointing his sword at Taka's face.

“There is no guarantee if I die, my friend will be released?” Taka muttered with a look away.

“Ha!? Tell me what you fuck!” The man directly pierced Taka's left arm.

The situation now turned around, at the beginning was indeed a victory in favor of Taka. Now no, submission is on top of it. Even now the blood that came out was pouring, while the man's wounds had started to close.

“Argh!” his screams were in pain, fresh blood began to drench his arms.

“What? Pain huh? What a pity this child, your brother used to be now you, haha!” The man laughed loudly over Taka's body.

I looked at it with pity on him, he was willing to protect us both at the cost of his life. Then I looked towards Yogairu, he looked desperate, tears started coming out of his eyes.

“My sister huh? Haha, it has been a long time that my body has not felt this much pain.” Taka said with a laugh.

Taka's gaze changed, his eyes filled with emptiness. Followed by her little smile.

“You're still enjoying-.”

*croz!

Suddenly the sword that pierced Taka's arm grew branchy and elongated piercing the man's body.

“Ti – impossible!” The man said in surprise, while blood started dripping from his mouth.

Then, Taka immediately kicked him. The situation now turned around again, now that the man had fallen, he seemed to have lost a great deal of blood. It's not about winning and losing, it's about living and dying. The mysterious man is now on the verge of death.

“Come on, where was your spirit?!” Shouted Taka while kicking his body several times.

“Ahhhh does not answer it?” continue by bringing the face closer to the man.

*Plaque!

Taka slapped the man in the face many times, looking like the man already had no light of life in his eyes.

“Then..... what do you mean by my brother?” He said in a lethargic tone, and strangled his neck.

“A- am- forgive me! To – please, Anyone!” His snare was laid – bricks.

“Ohh, ask for help huh? Alright!” His reply was with an evil smile as well as a small sword in Taka's hand, adorned with killing intent on his face.

“A- ahhh!”

*Crotz, Crotz!

Taka stabbed his body nonstop, not even the slightest pity on his face.

“Ahaha! Die up! Die up! Die up! Die!”

Shouted Taka followed by a tangled puncture – tubes.

“Ahh is dead, but my question has not been answered, ah yaudahlah.” Taka said in a lazy tone.

After he found out if the man was dead, he left him and stood speechless in front of his corpse. Arrived – arrived he slapped his own cheek, repeatedly. Until he looks at me and Yogairu.

He looked at me with the same look of eyes as looking at the mysterious man before, then he slapped his own cheek for a number of times. And then it started approaching me.

“Tu – wait for Taka, I'm your friend Aoi.” I said to wake him up.

My body was trembling, confusion mixed with fear clumping in my mind. I can't think clearly, only death is on my mind.

He began to approach, his gaze blank as if just looking ahead. However, when I was in front of him, he passed me. Looks like Taka went towards the flow of the waterfall.

“Sorry! I missed something big huh!” Shouted Mashiro who appeared next to me.

I was surprised, when Mashiro came out of nowhere.

‘Ah, the length of the story. Most importantly I can't move my body right now, and look at Taka covered in blood.’ My speech.

Mashiro looked around, she picked up the seeds that were thrown at me earlier.

“Ricin fruit seeds huh? No wonder you are paralyzed like this, fortunately you only inhale it.” Mashiro replied while carefully observing the seeds she was holding.

‘Keep aside about that, look at Taka. I mean, is he okay?’

Simultaneously Mashiro looked towards Taka, and came to a realization with the corpse of the man. Then he approached Taka to check on his condition.

“Dead life fight huh? Cool! Taka wins against high-level fugitive bandits?”

He still seems to be unconcerned about Taka's condition. Either way, he is a doctor, something like this has become breakfast every day.

“Soal Taka yes, he seems fine. The wound will probably heal in a few days. Judging from the look in his eyes he used his Cursed Skill - his, take it easy, he was still unconscious.” Further.

‘So so, alright.’

I was a little relieved to hear that, it seemed that Taka was also washing his body.

Shortly after, Taka came up to me while carrying leaves filled with water and watering me. His face became normal, he also smiled as he poured water into my head.

I saw my indicator immediately green, and my energy bar display also appeared. My body can also be moved.

“Te – thank you, gibberish how you hurt?” I asked while rubbing my face.

He just fell silent and smiled slightly, then pointed towards Yogairu.

I realized that Yogairu still could not move his body, then immediately took water and poured on him. He stood up while stretching his body.

“Thanks Taka! I owe you.” Yogairu said as he extended his hand to Taka.

Taka shook his hand and laughed a little.

“Haha, alright, I wait for that. It's dark, let's go home and have a good meal, I'll treat!” Reply while approaching the mysterious man's corpse.

When Taka was in front of the corpse, he placed his palm on the left chest of the corpse. After a few seconds, he pulled something out of his hand. It's a card, like an identity card tied to someone's life.

“Hap, here it is!” He shouted while showing the card.

The card is bright red, seen some writing that contains the name and role of the person. The contents, Hyaki Gako and Rolenya are ‘Petualang’ level 42 and ‘Bandit’ level 36.

“With this let's go home and have dinner!” Take Taka with spirit.

......................

We went back to Taka House, before that we went to a place like ‘Guild’ if in MMoRpg game. A place used as a means of exchanging loot with coins and full of quest boards in every corner.

Taka gave the identity card of the dead man to the guard who was there, then he was immediately given a small bag containing 1 jewel and 80 gold coins. That's a very large number.

Once home, we were warmly welcomed by Asteria and Azzzi. After having a hard day, just seeing two girls like an angel can ease the burden on my mind. Continue with dinner with the two of them.

“Ta – kyun, out of beating one more dungeon leader? Look at the cut on your cheek, is it okay?” Ask while touching the wound on Taka's cheek.

*Huk.

I choked when Asteria called Taka that name, I was a little surprised I thought only in my home world, it was exactly the same.

They looked at me in unison, then Azzuzi gave me a glass of water.

“Nih, Aoi – niisan.”

“Ah, Thank you.” I replied while receiving the glass he gave me.

The calm atmosphere and warmth color the dinner time, how heavy the day has passed there will definitely be a pleasant time gap.

We finished our dinner by cleaning the table and washing the dishes, after which I thought of the house I lived in in this world while sitting down to enjoy my warm drink. Not alone, Mashiro next to me was watching me, I tried to ignore her.

“Nothing, this is where you live. With the four of them.” Mashiro.

“HA!?” shouts surprised.

“Ka – you said, this is exactly the same as my world!” Ask me out loud.

Then someone came, he was Yogairu Kineku. With random hair and untidy clothes she looks cool with a badboy-like look if she's in my world.

“You don't know what time? Tomorrow you don't go to school?” Ask with a pissed face.

“Ah, sorry.” Reply while going to bed.

Wait, go to school? There are schools in the world not as clear as this? the weight of my mind increased, I was surprised to hear Yogairu's earlier remark.

Lying on my stomach on the soft bed, I let out a big sigh. Wishing my life to be as normal as it used to be, in my home world with some games and friends who are always with me.

Before closing my eyes, Mashiro suddenly sat right beside me. He continued by playing his fingers in front of me. He made me unable to sleep comfortably, finally I gave up on sleeping and started talking to him.

“Hei, Mashiro. I'm still curious ‘school’ in this world. Is it real?” I asked while turning to face the sky.

After asking that, Mashiro turned next to me and stuck her head on my shoulder.

This was too embarrassing, despite being coated with a blanket. I can still feel her soft head, not just that. The fragrance of her hair gives me the added comfort that I want to reek every time.

“It looks like you're getting comfortable huh, Of course it's true, so be prepared for tomorrow.” The answer.

“Sial, why in a world like this there should also be a school? Isn't that weird?” I muttered while sighing.

Seriate…….
