Post 91 – The Sentinel Wind (Sarah & Fenrir)

Hello and meow. Un here. We still going back in time via the Dimensional Rift, and tonight we goes to witness (and meddle with) the Sarah & Fenrir fight at Glast Heim!

OContinuing from that same night as Devil’s Tower, with me is myaa established partner in crime, Svenni the blue-coloured Rebel; and my new friend, Rhenaxis! Remember, Rebels and cats is good combi (actually always good to have us Summoners in party, nyehheheh). Standing by the device is Professor Bernhard who requests our help to find some Shards. So… OK! Let’s go!

Upon entering the dimensional device portal, we seemed to have crash-landed in a battle. Being adventurers, it is natural that we nyaa all these mobs! Once done, we finally meow properly to Fenris.

Fenris Fenrir (a warlock) seems to be looking for something and so are we. Although in dilemma of what to do, we just go forth and battle our way through~

Turns out that Fenris was nyaa-ing for the Sentinel Breeze (a.k.a. Sentinal Wind or Guarding Wind), a sword belonging to a Rune Knight named Chaos (the reincarnation of the Norman’s god, Baldr — son of Freyja/Frigg and Odin). The sword would help her locate Chaos, or so she hopes.

Uh-oh, guess who arrives! One of Freyja’s twelve Valkyries, Sarah Irene! She summons her Gigantes (giants/Jotunns). Fiiiightttt! Fight to help Fenris protect the sword! Why is Sarah Irene after it? Because Freyja orders her valkyries to stop anyone and anything who would bring about Ragnarök, and apparently Chaos is connected to this.

Sarah Irene has taken the sword with her and fled to Glast Heim castle! Let’s gooo! We gotta get it back, nyaa!

*Fighting from a corner, that’s how we roll~ /gg*

Success! How wude of her to say we are rats…and now she wants to destroy the whole place after losing the battle. Sheesh… Well, time to make a run for it! x’D

And then we became a ded so many times because of Sarah Irene’s explosive traps, hahahhaha… When in times like this, the Rebels and Cats combi will put forth our strategy! This calls for ‘Operation: Throw Cat’!

We made it, nyahhahahaaa~

We managed to help Fenris get the Sentinel Breeze sword and managed to defeat Sarah Irene, hoorayyyy~~ We all headed out and as we were relaxing in Svenni’s boat, me realised something…

…meow never did get any Shards, ha ha ha… (nervous laughter). Svenni said didn’t get any either… Did you get any, Rhena…? Uhm… Rhena…? Ah, she gone… x’DDD

Well, meow not know when me next post is, so bye for now!

When you on an important mission and gotta rush, but they be squeakin nonsense xDDD

This be Svenni and I, along with me pet Dexter and driver Mr Tarou, intensely talking to a Morrocan Villager. We didn’t hurt him, of course. We’re not bad people, hahah… I love doing quests (except The Sign Quest!). Sometimes the dialogues are funny~ ^^ Just wish me had more time and energy.

Oh, this is NOT the idea we had during the end of myaa previous post. This is just nonsense post, nyehheheh~ Next post will be the REAL thing.

Post 89 – Devil’s Tower

(to those who read the manhwa, this is the instance that introduces Loki)

Hello and meow. Un here. Been a long time since myaa last adventure. A month, I think? So tonight, it is adventure in Devil’s Tower!! You can nyaa it inside the Dimensional Rift. I have actually been to this dungeon before, by accident. I mistook it for Geffen Magic Tournament because I saw someone from the tourney near the Dimensional Device to this Tower…

Anyway, tonight with me is myaa established partner in crime, Svenni the blue-coloured Rebel; and my new friend next to me, Rhenaxis! Remember, Rebels and cats is good combi (actually always good to have us Summoners in party, nyehheheh).

So, with the power of the Dimensional Rift, we go back into time where you can see Thanatos in action for a while.

Here, we arrive at the base of this dark tower… Meet up with a Rune Knight, Officer Heim and as Julianna Lucille says later on, “The situation doesn’t seem to be good.” Lots of injured soldiers here. Meow thinking the rest of the Prontera Chivalry is busy with defending Prontera from Himmelmez, one of Freyja’s twelve Valkyries. Now the Assassins Guild sent people to investigate.

*Arrival and then helping Healer Fama to heal the soldiers.*

Lucille suspects that these mobs are coming from somewhere. With her was a ‘Magic Swordsman’ (Thanatos). The only way to know is to go up, up, up the tower! Dewey, one of the assassins helped us to get there. We were greeted by Evil Shadows! At the end of the stairs was Luoie (Louie) who leads us to the next place. Louie was preventing anyone else from entering and getting hurt, but he let us pass.

*Ascending the Devil’s Tower; Svenni too OP and went ahead already.*

We met up with Huey next. Svenni is behind the column, by the way. You can only see his white doge. It turns out Lucille is a machine! Ameowzing discovery. She needs to heal though (restoration process), but suddenly we got ambushed by more Evil Shadows~ After defeating them, Lucille tell us, “Hurry up or this world will be in danger.”

*Rhena so carefree, Lucille might be worried. x’D*

We arrive at the top of what is actually Thanatos Tower, greeted by something that looks like a grander version of Rebel’s Bound/Binding Trap. And you look at Sven here, he mocking me (though to be honest, I did read the NPC dialogue option as “Meow now” instead of “Move now” xD).

At the middle of it all stood Thanatos who is trying to subdue Surt (Satan Morocc), but first we need to destroy the seal in order to stop Surt from meownifesting and opening a gateway for his demon horde to come…!

We were successful, but Lucille tells us there is something more to investigate. It seems like there is a little girl in this tower, but how?? She seems to be looking for her father, a Morocc Knight. She tells us of a secret passage and follows us in for a bit.

*Once we go in, I imagine she peeking from behind wall as we fight.*

Hmm… what is this place? The Evil Shadows are stopping us from going further… Attaaaaack! Looks like there is an Evil Fanatic there. He is the one who tried to resurrect Surt! Good thing Loki is also here. He is is the most powerful member of the Assassins Guild and one of the seven Assassins of the Cross.

*Loki being very objective. Very admirable.*

As Loki strikes him (the Evil Fanatic), that little girl stepped in and shielded him, sacrificing her life for the person she called her father, the supposed Morocc Knight. How is the Evil Fanatic her father, meow not know; but now she has become a ded. :< The Evil Fanatic calls the little girl as foolish for doing such an illogical thing.

*Rebels getting ready for the final battle. So cute.*

Uhhh… Meow not has an after-battle picture to end this post, but…

Yaaaaay~~ Success! We have managed to stop Surt from being resurrected by the Evil Fanatic and disposed of him as well, though we couldn’t do anything about his daughter…

So, that ends the journey and we exit the Tower, leaving behind a perplexed Loki. Loki is baffled at how the little girl just threw her life away for her dad when we could all see her dad was doing a terrible thing. Loki is baffled with this kind of emotional reaction.

Well… meow thinks she was just a simple child who viewed her father in a great light, and he meant the world to her. She was doing what she thought was the right thing.

So… what now? Svenni, Rhena and meow will think first. Hmm, yes yes… that’s a good idea… nyehheheheh~

OK, bye! See you next post!

P/S: The party name… the party originally belonged to myaa household Archbishop, Thomas. We uh… I guess we kind of hijacked the party from him, ha ha ha…

Intermission #2 – Idling

March 7, 2020March 11, 2020 Onion, E.Leave a comment

[OOC] Hello, everyone. Thanks for reading my blog and for sticking around. I’m not dead yet. I’m waiting for the chance to do Episode 17.1 main quest, but it won’t be happening anytime soon… Maybe end of March or April, who knows. Plus, I’m distracted with various things (including RO2, hehe)… but I AM still playing RO. I could do some instance runs, but the chance is yet to come.

I think I’ll just slip a little bit of my own thoughts here, having play RO as a Summoner for some time already…

I love playing the Summoner class. I’m not a fan of cats, so I couldn’t care less when Gravity put up the ads and posters of Dorams. However, when in sprite form, they struck me more like a hamster with a long tail (or desert mice?) and I love hamsters!

And so, I decided to give these Dorams a shot because of their cute sprite form and also because not many people are playing it.

As I have said, I love playing as a Summoner and I can say that I am proud to be one to the extent that I don’t wear wedding dresses and traditional costumes becaue it would turn me into a Norman (human) sprite. I am also reluctant to use the Laser of Eagle headgear because it has a chance of turning me into Cecil Damon, a Norman; but I compromise since it is only briefly and during battle (where the focus is on the mob and not me).

However, as time goes by, my pride starts to waver.

There are things I would like to ask about Summoner builds, but all I come across with is the Picky Peck build. No one really knows the magic build. And even about the Picky Peck build, no one really understands the skills or the way they work. All this is because no one really plays Summoner as main character. Their mains are always third-job types like Ranger and Sura (and where I’m at, Genesis Ray RGs).

Gearing up a Summoner is tough because they can’t wear most things. It’s like to get out of wearing the Doram armour set for life, you’d have to get the entire endgame gears ready, and only switch when it’s all complete. If you wear half and half, you’re a dead cat because not only is your skill casting now interruptable, your HP isn’t as much and depending on what you take off, maybe your Flee goes down as well. And even if you have gotten the items, to wear it without refining it to above +9 still means you’re a weak fluffball.

But to get these endgame gears would require you to have better armour but you’re trapped because the Doram set ensures your survivability at the cost of your ability to hunt at places where you can get those endgame gears. You can’t hope to fight YSF-01 while wearing Doram set, but to get our of Doram set, you need the YSF plate. Get what I mean??

While I could just gear up a non-Doram to hunt for me, my Doram pride refuses to budge. I refuse to use any other class but Summoner. Summoner is my main and so that is what I will use.

It’s not that I am feeling bad because I’m a weak Doram in comparison to the Norman; but I guess I’m just sad that no matter what, Dorams will not be able to as capable as Normans. Kinda unfair, but it kinda makes sense because Dorams are minority, a job class created by the game devs to rake in quick money (and it worked). Doram Summoner is a ‘for fun’ class. It can kick ass, yes; but not like Normans.

Sigh. I’ll feel better the next day, most likely. I will not stop playing as Summoner. Like the Priest class, this one also calls my name. I really hope I have enough drive in me to master the class.

(or ‘Happy 500x 500x 50x rates’ xD)

*Drawn by Onion, E. Coloured using Krita software.*

In conjunction with Chinese Mew Year, the EXP rates and drops rates have gone up, 500 times and 50 times, respectively. That means a bountiful harvest for myaa household farmer, T. Salad. It also means this is the time to be hunting for rarities!

We must have a party for Tarous worldwide! Tarou is a rat-like creature after all and it is year of the rat! Year of the Tarou! Meow will gives me Mr Tarou (also nicknamed Bahamut) a treat, token of thanks for hard work of driving meow around.

Have a good feast, everyone! 😀
