When I got to the guild and started to look for a quest someone snuck up on me and put their hand on my shoulder. Turning to see who it was, I saw Kaji smiling at me.
"So, you finished the quest?" I inquired
"Um, actually, I didn't go on the quest either." Kaji replied timidly, "I intended to just talk to you for a bit and then go back, but I couldn't find you, and then when I got back here, the girls had already left."
"What! You let them go alone! Hurry help me look for a quest to get us in the ruins!"
"Calm down, I'll help. Don't worry, they'll be fine. They both can fight as well as anyone else I know."
After searching for a few minutes Kaji exclaimed, "Found one! Oh no. Researchers lost in an earthquake, wait the quest that I was going to go on was protecting researchers, well after that it is the usual stuff, high level hunters, dangerous, etc."
"Oh man, take that quest! We have to make sure that they're okay!"
Calm down I'm letting the operator know that we want to take the quest now. You ready?"
"Of course I'm ready, lets hurry up and go, and the longer we take the more likely something will happen to the girls."
"So you two are taking the quest From the Depths?" the operator politely asked when we got there.
"Yes! Please hurry!" I exclaimed in reply.
Alright, the client will meet you in room 665 in two minutes."
"Thank you miss, we really appreciate it." said Kaji.
After
struggling for a while, we reached the transporter to the third part
of the ruins. We quickly went in and saw a HUmar that began walking
towards us. Suddenly we were bombarded by more of the numerous
monsters of the ruins. After we managed to clear the room of them,
the hunter came up to us and said, "My name's Ash. I can't
tell you how glad I am to finally find people that haven't gone
insane."
"We're here officially looking for the
researchers, but unofficially for our friends that were guarding
them. Do you know anything about either?" I quickly asked.
"Well I'm not sure about your friends, but I know that the researchers are all dead, if you want proof, I'll take you to where they died. And if you want we can look for your friends afterwards."
"No thank you, I'll look for our friends alone, Kaji, you go with Ash and get the info about the researchers and then try to catch up."
"But, will you be..."
"I'll be fine, remember, I spent a month here alone, I think I can handle a few minutes alone now."
"Fine, and Hono'o, good luck with finding the girls."
"Good luck to you too."
We ran off in our different directions, and when I got to the next room I was attacked by more enemies. Using this time to think, I decided on heading to the transport that I ran away from before. Using Agito, I cut down the enemies, and began my journey to Falz itself.
When I finally reached the last room before Falz, I saw Akemi and Yakedo back to back fighting off five of the humanoid delsabers each. I quickly rushed in and was able to take down all the delsabers at once.
"So, Kaji finally found you?" Akemi asked?
"Yeah, I replied, "he should be here in a little bit"
"Why isn't he here now?" Yakedo exclaimed.
"Look we needed a quest to get permission to come down here, so he's getting the evidence we need with a hunter we met on our way named Ash."
"So he's fine then, thank goodness." Yakedo sighed
"Well we aren't, Akemi said, there are more delsabers coming."
Not only were there delsabers, but there were chaos bringers, the mage like chaos sorcerers, and the totem like dark belra. I readied my blades and charged at the combination of the ruin's toughest monsters. I took down many at a time, but they just kept coming, suddenly I heard a shout and a shot. I turned around to see Kaji shooting the enemies using his Yasminkov 3000R to shoot down the monsters. I slashed down the last enemy and then we finally cleared out the room.
