Trouble and Realisation

As I was riding on to my next location my thoughts were " imagine going back to my room and shutting the door and packing my clothes and stuff before running away from home ... That's sooo lame" I had a good laugh at that thought, I used to do that in my previous life when i was a kid

The reason I ran away is because these two dungeons are far away from the capital, if I want to leave the capital , I need a reason

Otherwise I have to explain to my family how and why I am going or wait for an opportunity to present itself and who knows how long that will take , if I run away now my reputation is not going to take a massive hit either because it's an arrogant 13 year old running away from home in search of adventure after his father scolded him

And when it comes to a run away it always comes down to the results , if I go back now and people know that I'm silver realm , I'm a sucessful person after running away and had good adventure , if I lost an arm and came back , then I got humbled

" My family will send people to look for me after a day or two of me not returning and they'll have a hard time finding me , they only know I passed through the north gate and used a stealth talisman , they don't know which way I went , the news of the tiger bandits being wiped out will take atleast a few days to reach them because I didn't leave any survivors, that should give me atleast a week for these two dungeons "

As I was thinking of my plan and time schedule I felt dizzy in my head " damn I've worked too much today , i need to rest after reaching the dungeon , good thing I am a silver rank and I can use spiritual energy to strengthen myself otherwise I would have fainted by now "

I kept riding the" tiger stripped Andalusian" for hours , this horse is the only one of its kind , sure the Andalusian breed is not rare but this tiger stripped coat there's only one in the game, Andalusians are war horses , they can't run fast but they have amazing endurance and stamina

" Even in reality you're built like a tank boy "

The horse nodded its head proudly and kept running

After riding for many hours continuously i reached a checkpost , I showed them my identity token of the Golden lion academy and they let me pass, from there I went inside the forest filled with stones " well it's called the rock forest for a reason "

After reaching the dungeon location I got down the horse and before hitching him I got an idea and I tried to take him inside the dungeon...."it worked "

" In the game mounts are not allowed inside dungeons but in reality they can go in , then i guess I can bring a pet inside as well , who knows that reality unlocks something new "

After reaching the place where the spirit fire is supposed to be I sat down and said " rest boy , sleep while you can " and gave him a large sugar cube to lick , he started licking it and I turned on a stealth talisman and slept flat on the floor "

... Some hours later...

I woke up with stiff body and streched myself , i looked around and i realised what I came here for , the horse is now on the ground completely asleep

" Shit I forgot my tooth brush and essentials" I walked outside the cave opening and it was a sunny Tuesday morning "nice weather"

I took a dump and cleaned myself up before changing into a extra large blue vest and black pants , i tucked the shirt into my pants and pants in my shoes , I tried to put on large shoes but they're too uncomfortable to walk so I switched back to my shoes

" Tight clothes check , talismans check , body condition check , weapons check , hair style check .... Let's go " I walked back in the cave and entered the dungeon

This dungeon only has one normal stage and boss stage , as I entered the dungeon I am walking on a huge a tree branch and on it are my favourite enemies , the sleeping rose guardians

These guys are root like beings with a red rose as their heads , they hold a gold spear in their hand and have a weird dance like move set , they don't poke with their spear they slash while pushing their opponent back

The reason they're my favourite is because they're designed to use their surroundings really well and push their enemies to death from this tree branch

I turned on my stealth talisman and slowly sneaked up on the branch and then i took a deep breath and broke one small branch , one of the sleeping rose guardians woke up and looked at me , I just kept moving back , I know it can't see or sense me

I made it back to the stairs and took out a talisman and tried to burn the stick ....it burned down in seconds

This is bad , after my first live dungeon yesterday i realised that in reality these dungeons are not indestructible, i wanted to use a kunai and call of them to one spot and burn them all together but thats not possible now , I might brun this branch completely and end up closing the only path to the boss room

After thinking for awhile I went back to the large tree branch and started sneaking up on a rose guardian , I reached right in front of him , he's still asleep so I pushed him down the tree branch... No sound and he's dead

"That's ....Disgusting"

I threw away the stealth talisman in disgust and stood up , some of the rose guardians sensed me and started jumping towards me

I took out two silver grade flaming katana and walked towards them , the rose guardians in the front got cautious after sensing the flames

" Don't worry I'll end this quick , after all I'm a speed runner"
