Snippet #2346293

Someone known as the <<Red Priest>> was challenging some people. Kanna had thrown some of her weapons mid-flight to grab the challenger's attention. It did, and the Voice of Treason flew in through the window, making a nice landing on his own two feet. As he neared the window, he heard sounds coming from inside the room. In one motion, Kanna dropped from his arms (Asher mentally let out a sigh; he liked her in his arms) and smiled cheerfully. Before, she wouldn't have done such a thing in the face of something such as this, but Kanna had changed and became more confident. In turn, Asher grew confident that she would make it- not that he thought she would let herself die before.

As the two conversed, Asher looked for the stairs upward. He needed to get to the next floor and clear out the enemies there. Kanna here can take care of herself; after all, it's only one boss. Finally he found it. Looking around for his allies, Asher found that Kahlan and Shineda are in the same room, as well as a newcomer (whose last statement annoyed Asher). Asher proceeded to send them a message, telling them that he's going to the next floor. If they wanted to join him, they are welcome to. After Asher pressed send, he looked at the fight once again. Kanna was down, trying to regain her breath. Her opponent and his Familiar were now charging at her. Asher clenched his fist, and silently chanted a few words he knew. "Rest in a merciless embrace, and freeze in a hell colder than the devil himself... Absolute." He didn't even look at the result, as his face was now towards the next floor. However, by the sounds of the spell being cast, he knew an iceberg showed up somewhere. "Kanna! I'll go on to the next floor.I'll meet you there once you're done, got it? Fly strong." And then The Voice of Treason went up the steps and into the next floor.

The next floor consisted of three players, all ready for the party that was supposed to come. Asher smirked. "Well, well, look what we have here." Greeted one of them, specifically the middle one. "The Black Raven has come to join our guild! Or maybe he wants a little duel."

Asher just smiled. The three players were a girl with twin blades, a boy with a scythe, and another one with a sword and shield. "Hm... As much as I would love to join a guild as well trained as yours, I am here for the latter." Asher replied, drawing his <<Devil's Eye Blade>> and its sheathe. "I saw one of my friends up at the top. I figured you guys are in some kind of clash with them? If you say yes, then I'm afraid that you're facing against the Winged Duo as well."

"Then where is the other wing of the bird?"

"Entrusted to clear the last floor." Asher pointed his sword at the three. His mind raced as he looked for any advantages among the three. First, the twin blades. Because dual-wielding is mainly for offense, defense would be low. Most likely, his scythe would do the trick. Next would be the one with the sword and shield. A sword and sheathe combination would give him the advantage. Then the scythe-wielder. The boy's scythe was extremely large, even for his size. Asher might be able to dodge any attacks from afar, but up close, the boy doesn't stand a chance. The size of the weapon didn't cover what's directly near him. Asher would come in using <<Charging Strike>> and use <<Close Combat>> skills on him. "Well, then." Asher called out. "En garde!" He charged at the one with the sword and shield, the one named <<FlLFFl>>.
