"Watch out Iris!!! Behind you!!!" I said that as i killed another Little Nepent which was about to harm Iris.
"huahhhh.... finally finished getting 2 «Little Nepent's Ovule» which is a key quest to get better equipment for the both of us, thinking back me and Iris had an argument over which way to go. "We should go to Harunka village Kirito its better because we could get equipment there which could last us for about 6 floors before we would have to switch" she reasoned but I insisted "no, we should go and defeat this floor and move on to the next there's a better quest there which can give us even stronger equipment" She angrily said "Kirito this is not a game anymore we shouldn't be reckless, yes in the beta we defeated the first floor with a group of people with beginner equipment but how could we gather people if they are sitting on the ground in despair not even thinking of a way to get out?" I was taken aback at her reason and thought it over.
I nodded wordlessly and we began to move to Harunka village. When we arrived at Harunka village i thought with a sigh ' as expected not even 1 single person made it to this village at least' with another deep sigh i said "well lets get going!" we went to a deeper house within the village and walked in a young women came to us and said "Good evening, journeying warriors. You must be tired, I do wish to offer you some food, but I do not have any at the moment. All i can give is a single cup of water to each of you or so." in response i answered "that will be fine."
I sat down and signaled Iris to sit down too as the women went back to the pot. then the next part of the quest appeared. The steady sound of a child's coughing could soon be heard from the other side of the door to the next room. The missus's shoulders appeared to have fallen with despair. After having waited for another few seconds, a golden question mark finally lit up above the lady's head. The sign of a quest's activation. I called out without a moment's delay. "Is something troubling you?" "Actually, journeying swordsman, my daughter is stricken with a severe illness that is completely unfazed even when given medicine from the market and there is no other way to cure my daughter aside from making her drink medicine gotten from the ovules of the <<Little Nepent>> inhabiting the forest further to the west." I got up for the sake of setting the mood and cried out "leave it to me!!!!"- I took Iris's hand and rushed out the house.
Which brought us to now, avoiding the players that have finally made it to this village me and Iris entered the same house we took out our <<Little Nepent's Ovule>> and placed them in the pot the missus face lit up and she brought a set of twin swords for each of us. I responded with a "thank you" knowing the NPC would not register it. I sat there regardless of Iris's questioning over why we were still here and watched the missus prepare the cup filled with medicine. When she finished she went through the back door i subconsciously followed. When in the room the NPC closed the door and fed the drink to the other NPC called Agatha. Agatha rose from her bed I groaned seeing her face "......Uu...gh......" i thought sadly 'i want to see my sister.....' i sat down in a depressed state the NPC asked an innocent question toward me "what's wrong?" brother' i added subconsciously held my legs close and let out the tears i have been holding in since the beginning 'I want to see them!!!!'
