The Player's System

Blood

After battling with the fire creature the visible damage was only done to the gowns. The heat reddened their faces. The red dust slightly coated their appearance.

Sashi handed the quiver to the team head. He remembered the words of the man. The man was unable to explain properly. Junan thought to follow his spoke words.

There was small round iron made symbol in the middle of the door. The rest of the plank was simple and ordinary.

Team members were curious. They were silent and observing team head. Junan poured the blood on the symbol. The iron symbol turned like unlocking the door.

"Thankfully it did not turn out dramatic opening of another code." Orin commented. The iron symbol moved from its place and the two planks separated. Inside the long path was bright as if the light of the day was directly reaching there.

Everyone was alert probably more than the peak of alertness. They were expecting some trap or some creature blocking their advancement. "This light is definitely some trap. Look at the concrete walls perhaps there is some hidden creature." Clark wide opened his eyes as if ready to spot something suspicious.

Jake received notification. [You entered in the range of Ashmorn tear.]

There was no other guidance or warning so Jake took it that the place was not dangerous for them. The cramp and dull walls might have looked haunted without much source of the light.

Junan was leading and the first one to see the source of light. There was tiny thing on the wooden table. It was emitting light.

"It is perhaps the tear of Ashmorn." Team head sounded unsure. They looked at it. Jake received another notification. [The tear of Ashmorn]

Orin was looking at it without blinking. "If it is the tear of Ashmorn then it has reason to be called precious." They stood around the small table. The tear of Ashmorn fairly blanked their eyes with the amount of light.

All those completed tasks and the acquired precious collectibles were meant to add up in their level gains. The accumulated level gains were transformed in the level rewards. The intricate achievements thus give back the rewards after the completion of level.

All of them read through the basic guides of the game portal. So whenever they reached at the completion of single task they were immensely happy.

Every completed task added up to their perfect reward for the level. The developers introduced this method of polishing the weapons and increasing their levels.

The precious collectibles added in their individual rewards. This way the player could unlock some of customized options too.

The professional rewards were related with the individual rewards. By getting them the player could unlock ability of their respective profession.

Clark was excited because every tear meant that they were nearing the Orlenia Palace as mentioned by the elder of the Itaten Farm. He was eager to set free little girl called Ashmorn. "According to the task of the level we should steal the Feast of Kings can someone confirm that we will steal little girl Ashmorn?" his curiosity was at the peak.

"This is confirmed either we will steal her before the rituals or we will kill the kings. It will depend on the situation or the sudden choice. We cannot let the kings sacrifice her." Junan spoke determined.

"Hopefully this tear would lead us toward the second tear or the tower." He gestured them to stand near.

Team head picked the tear. It was boxed in the tiny transparent cube. As soon as he picked it the task completed and they were brought in the area of second tower. The tear opened the gate that was closed by the king.

Only the power of Ashmorn could open those gates closed by the king. Team members felt blinded for some time. They appeared at newer place filled with chaos. The red dust was scattering. The mayor of the Labona came out with his strongest men. He was standing at the gate to receive the Runners.

The king sent threat that no matter if he killed all natives the runners should not escape.

Three beasts were set free in order to force the natives leave the Labona Farm. The mayor got to know that the 'Living Clue' among the natives helped the runners reach near the Flame tower.

He was fuming with hatred toward the natives. The beasts trampled every house. Few hundred people were killed under their feet. The houses were set on fire to get rid the natives.

The tower was important for now. The sky of the Labona farm was looking at them with pity. The people have nowhere to go because all outer exits were closed and covered.

Thinking that these natives might show those exits the mayor pulled the eyes of those living near the exits.

This created horror for the rest of natives. Wherever they tried to hide the beasts came chasing them.

The natives were looking like insects trying to escape from death dusty red faces and the tattered clothing added to their misery.

Mayor kept waiting the runners at the gate however they appeared at the different place of the Labona farm. They were not using normal method opening the gate instead using tear of Ashmorn. King was clueless about the real power of Ashmorn.

He thought that incomplete Ashmorn could not harm his resolution. That was not truth. The Ashmorn could destroy the Orlenia palace with her present strength but she did not want to harm the foundations of the Empire instead she wanted that the runners should kill the kings and bring new era in the seven Empires.

The cursed king has the backing of the old master which was harmful if she alone decided to defeat him. She was only five years old with incomplete nature of her inborn power.

It could potentially harm others too. Team members saw the chaos. Albert sighed, "The previous farm was better than this.." He commented.
