Midnight had gotten online at 2 am. She was practically the only person online, so she could farm bosses and monsters for special things, and something's she just needs to be there at absurd times. She walked over to the sludge part of floor 2. If she gets immunity to toxic effects, it will be easy to stop many potent poison attacks. "Ugh, it's so boring doing this." Midnight admitted, she walked around the sludge land, standing in the sludge did 5 damage a tic, (20 seconds) and she healed 15 hp at each tic. She was walking around until she found the volcano zone. {toxic invulnerability is at high} "ugh, another hour here, then I can move to the inferno zone. She never normally does this, but it was important to get these immunity's. "I should also go to floor 1 and got the {holy invulnerability}" she said out loud. Knowing that inferno invulnerability would be a pain, she was ready for a long night.

It wasn't even a hour later when she got {toxic immunity} she got out of the sludge and started to walk to the inferno zone, she was on the edge of both biomes, but then fell into a secret dungeon. {sludge dungeon found} "yeah, no crap, Sherlock" Midnight said, she had about 10 cups of coffee and was sleep deprived. She walked through the dungeon, easily defeating the enemy's. "This is more like a level 30-40 dungeon... I'm level 71... ugh." Midnight said, she easily made it to the dungeon boss, and came face to face with a large slime looking thing. It used [toxic] giving the toxic and poison de-buff to anyone, but then again, Midnight was immune. "[copycat]" she said while yawning. She defeated the boss with a simple [devour]. A pop up message appeared on her device, it was a text from Payne.

Privet chat between Payne and Midnight
Payne: you want to grind as it seems we are the only people of our guilds?

Midnight: sure, give me about 2 hours 30 minutes please.

Payne: we have all night.

Midnight: what level you on right now?

Payne: level 62, what about you?

Midnight: level 71, about 72.

Payne: I'll catch up one day.

Midnight gave a sigh of relief as she opened the chest {first to conquer sludge dungeon} appeared, giving her three ability's, [don't be seen] will blind the enemy and cause the toxic effect. (10 mp and lasts 10 seconds) [toxic arrow] a toxic arrow shoots from the sky, dealing toxic true damage. (5 mp) [toxic barrage] a barrage of toxic arrows come from the sky, gives the blindness effect, and the toxic effect + true damage. (10 mp). She walked out, tired, and then just walked into the magma zone, slowly getting the burning effect, doing 10 damage a tic. She out healed the tic damage and after an hour and 15 minutes, gotten full immunity. 'Sorry Mii, but I'm now immune to all your attacks...' she walked away, now going to the first floor to acquire {holy immunity} when she arrived, she noticed a dungeon that had never been there before. Deciding to check it out, she ran through quickly, setting off all traps getting {trap low invulnerability} yeash, sorry Drag. Once she ran through once, the entire dungeon was easy, but the lines felt similar to greek things. Quickly doing research, she did it once more and instead of waiting out the text and not replying, she said something (translations at the end.) "Είμαι εδώ για να πολεμήσω, Άρη." in stead of fighting a 10 meter wide ox, Ares appeared, being 20 feet tall, and 10 feet wide, he said. "Με προκάλεσες, νεαρέ, αλλά δεν θα είναι εύκολος αγώνας." Ares attacked with a large swing of a sword, barely dodging, Midnight used [black]. It hit the target, and quickly she defeated him. "μπράβο, νεαρέ, καλώς ήρθες στον Όλυμπο για να πολεμήσεις τους άλλους, με ή χωρίς φίλους." Ares disappeared, and left behind a treasure chest. Inside there was a small token called {welcome} it allows the user to go to Olympus, but really, Midnight didn't want to deal with that. So she put it in her inventory, and searched the chest, inside, there were a few scrolls, she used the 3 that added 25 more slots each scroll, and looked at the others. [intuition]: it allows the user to sense any other player, and detect if they are friended or not. [Apollo's blessing]: damage dealt with a bow is tripped if hit on the head, and quadrupled if critical hit. [Artemis' blessing]: allows the user to call upon any monster/boss/animal they have fought and won against. "Op much?" Midnight mumbled, looking at the last two, she checked what they were for [immunity scrolls]: the person who activates this is immune to that element forever, even if there was a de-buff removing immunity's. she quickly used them for light and dark immunity's as they are practically impossible to get without 12 hours of grinding for each.

"You know, I didn't expect you to be online this late." Payne said, "yeah, well, I needed to grind as I missed a day." Midnight said back, Mii had gotten online and the trio were meeting up. Mii ran over to them, waving her arms like crazy. "You know, it's hard to act like we hate each other, Payne," Mii said, "yeah, it's a pain to act like the middle person." Midnight admitted, "our friendship must keep hidden, we three are all high scorers in the first event, not to mention the second event being so chaotic." Payne said, "so do we want to grind, I mean, we have 4 hours until someone else would be online." Midnight said. "How about trying to go to that umm..." Payne was forgetting the name, "the {magic dungeon} so we can get {magic immunity} and {trap immunity}?" Mii said, "yeah." Payne said, the trio were now walking on ward to the dungeon.

After the 5th run, they set a new record, but Midnight felt like something was off. "Hey, can you guys give me 30 minutes, I've got to do something." Midnight said, "yeah, see you, I'll make sure Mii doesn't do anything stupid." Payne said, "hey! You're the one who does stupid stuff!" Mii argued back, as the duo were bickering, Midnight did some research.

"I have an idea!" Midnight yelled, getting back online. The trio had gotten {trap immune} and {magic immune} so they were just waiting to do something else. "Okay, as you know in the puzzle room-" Midnight started, "yes, the one you compleat every time, we just waited by the way, we didn't want to do the puzzle." Mii informed Midnight, "anyways, it asks us what magic means, and I always say: 'the power of influencing the course of events by using super natural or mysterious forces.' What if I saw Augury? It means: 'a sign of what will happen in the future' also like Magic." Midnight said, "yeah.. let's go!" Mii said, incredibly bored with waiting. The trio breeze through the monsters, and quickly make it to the puzzle room. "What does Magic mean?" Asked the wall. "Augury: a sign of what will happen in the future'" "correct" and instead of opening like normal, a door behind them opened, they walked through and checked out the area they were in. It was bright with many lanterns being hooked onto the walls, the trio analyzed everything, but nothing stood out. Then there was the big door they saved for last, they opened it and the boss arena was huge. Instead the undead caster, there was a normal, alive caster. "You have forsaken me, father, and I will forsake you." It said, quickly launching a attack. The party just stood there. "Ugh!? Seriously!? We are immune to it's attacks!" Mii yelled, "come on, let's hope there's good loot." Payne said, they defeated the boss, and checked what was inside the loot, but instead of anything even remotely goon, the only thing they had acquire was [magic bullet] It allows the user to create a bullet out of pure magic, doing massive damage to those with and without {magic immunity} "eh, 3? We all get 1," Midnight said, she checked the time, and realized it was time for her to go. "I've got to go, thanks for the grinding through, Mii, Payne, good luck in the tournament." Was all she said before she logged out. "I bet Maple Tree will win." Mii said, "hey! How am I supposed to beat that? They have Midnight, and a tank with literally all their stats in defense!" Payne yelled.

Translations: I'm here to fight, Mare/Ares.

Well done young man, welcome to Olympus to fight others, with or without friends. (Once again, meant it to woman, but again again, I'm too lazy to change it.)
