Super Spark of Duper Pride [OB] - Act I: Motivation

2-2: A Forced Start (Spider 34)

Just as I left my fourth house, it got destroyed by an earthly, does that make sense?, beam of destruction.

The falling debris destroyed the giant gravesilk I made for all the Monsters I killed here, even the hated revenge monkeys, which I had to work so hard to overcome my hatred to build.

What the hell just happened!?

Turn to look at where the blast came from.

It was another Earth Dragon!? A purple one this time.

Memories of That hit me like truck-kun and I immediately ran for the hills and towards the Middle Stratum.

Anything! Anything but this! Nai wa!

Y2gncr9t3q9vn873tgn9q0t89n0ut49v!

...Ha ha ha!

Time to take this place over!

This is now Hiiro's territory!

...Nai wa, I need to hype myself up to even try this.

I still don't have any ranged attacks to use here.

But I ain't staying in the Lower Stratum to be killed! Nai wa!

Still, am I even going the right way?

Am I seriously going to have to actually explore this scorching imitation of hell for the exit to the Upper Stratum?

Nai wa, better buckle up for the long road ahead then.

Even with [Fire Resistance], this place is still so hot!

Like, my legs hurt from touching the ground!

It's searing! I feel like I am burning!

I wouldn't be able to do this without [Pain Mitigation]. Nai wa.

Man, I miss air conditioners from my past life.

I want some ice cream, or a cool drink, fruit juice would be nice right about now.

Eh!? Something just popped out of the magma.

It's that lavahorse again, or maybe it's a different one but who cares, and it shoots fireballs at me but I dodge them with ease.

Ha! You thought! Gotta go fast!

I have gotten super fast now thanks to [Pride], [Skanda] and my training.

In fact, I laser focused hard on Speed since it is the most useful and important Stat in my professional gamer opinion.

With [Skanda LV10], you can't hit me, lol!

Inner Critic: But you can't hit it either, Hiiro.

Yeah, Inner Critic, this is awkward, both players are in a stalemate.

Oh wait, that guy is running low on MP.

I guess those fireballs use MP like [Poison Synthesis].

I dodge the last fireball and the lavahorse leaves the magma to chase me on foot.

You can walk on land!? Seahorses ain't supposed to be able to do that! Nai wa!

But my panic soon subsided as I realised it is very slow on land.

Wow, just wow, what an idiot, you should have just ran away.

Talk about bad AI, but that means I can lure them to land, kill them and eat them.

The future is looking much brighter now, not as bright as the Middle Stratum but still.
