The Player's System

Embrace End

Third task

Getting the third card

They killed Kari. Junan stepped ahead and gestured others to stay near. In the meanwhile first team was able to reach this island because the boat inquisitively did not break in the middle of the lake.

They were able to reach but have no courage to enter in the battle against other sages and the boss.

Team members of the third gathered and the team head picked the card. As soon as he picked the card the quest got completed and they were transported.

Well they wanted to delay. After they stepped at the third quest ground they regretted. They wished that they should have taken some rest before picking the card.

The moonlit night along with the stormy winds created horrible scenario but it was just small opening of the horror ahead.

The quest place was rightly named 'Embrace End'

Third team was going to embrace their end.

"Hell shit why my feet are dragging forward?" Orin shouted. He might have taken glimpse at the ground but the opposite storm wind slapped at his face and the chest.

The ground was pushing forward while the stormy wind pushed them backward. It was more than struggle.

All of them felt like they would not be able to save themselves from the upcoming damage. Actually they were oblivious about the problem spreading its claw and patiently waiting for them.

After getting the card they appeared at the Embrace End. It was top of a cliff and the weather was really bad. The upper surface of the ground was unstable and they were moving toward the dead end of the cliff. The weather and the stormy wind added in their misery.

They were helpless to halt their advancement toward the dead end. Well honestly they were clueless until younger player shouted to get their attention.

Jake got urgent warning from the task panel.

[Warning: The host should get ready. The cliff is near to its end.]

[Vital option: Grab on to hanging ivies.]

All of them looked at the younger player.

"The ground beneath is going to throw us from the cliff thousand miles down at the hard ground. If we jump and catch the ivies we might find a way to solve the problem."

There heard and could hear the splash of watch smashing against the rocks due to the wind. Falling from the cliff might not bring at the ground instead the storm wind would crash them against the rocks.

"It is true we might not be able to defeat this weather. Make sure all of you get the support of ivies." Junan ordered all of them.

They understood the only option to avoid this plight was fixated.

Now they were trying to spot the ivies at the distance. The high mountain ahead showed some ivies hanging on the mountain downward. With the storming wind the ivies were moving left and right. When they move left they turned away at the distance from the cliff. When the ivies moved right they reached at the corners of the cliff. Sashi was able to spot first. She was being dragged earlier than others.

The ivies went on distance with the direction of the wind then the direction changed. Sashi felt her heart jumped in her throat. She was near the cliff and anytime could fell. They could imagine her body broken in pieces once she fell from the cliff.

At the same time the wind pushed ivies toward her, it was like saved at the last moment.

Sashi captured the ivy and jumped. Later Clark reached at the cliff end and followed the instructions of the team head. Junan looked toward the young player. He was worried that the kid would not be able to hop on the ivy separately.

All of them secured their weapons and got ready for the adventurous jump from the cliff. They did not want to throw their weapons when they jump.

Jake was also worried because hanging on the ivy was impossible without both hands giving spot.

[Attention: Why thinking twice? The task panel is here to help you. You may jump now.]

Jake hurriedly read the notification and let the ground push him toward the embrace end.

Task panel deducted small amount of Exp and gave enough strength to the left hand. However the task panel deliberately hid it from the host. The host might have wrecked his emotions after knowing that his Exp would be deducted.

All of them successfully hopped on the ivies.

The first team was at the back. They were cursing their ancestors because of this plight. Half of them took courage and followed the third team while half of them unlucky to not capture the ivies at the right time.

Those lucky team members looked at the third team. They were also hanging at the ivies looking what to do. The weight of their body decreased the force of the wind that was making the ivies clatter against the rocks.

All of the players were at the mercy of the ivies. If the ivies made them slip or got separated then none of the powers could save them from the death.

If they honestly express their impressions then for them it was no different than the cliff itself.

They seemed hanging and waiting for the rescue operation to begin in the middle of the storm. Jake was slightly surprised because his hand captured the ivy and there was no burden on his shoulder.

Others were strong enough to spend some time like this. They could circle the ivies at their waist to secure themselves.

The storm wind halted not completely but enough to be called taking break. It gave them some time to observe their surroundings.

Apart from the ivies there was nothing that could have saved them. There were several openings in the rocks when one could take refuge if climbing up in the middle of the storm. This rocky cliff was bigger than the previous one.
