A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

"Wake the f*ck up already!! Or we won't last a minute longer!!" Ezekiel shouted as he felt Alex trembling in his arms as she tried to escape his grasp. But he only pulled him closer. Even though Alex lost her sense. It looked like she still has some awareness within her that stops her from hurting him.

He doesn't care if they die from the goblins. Due to the fact that Alex gave him the order to stop her no matter what she did. 

Before they entered the game, she told him a lot of things. And one of those things is that he should stop her. If she is acting weird all of a sudden. She doesn't care if she dies, as long as he can stop her.

A lot of those things she told him don't make any sense. But it was Alex he's talking about. She has done way many things that don't make any sense already. 

"What are you IDIOTS!! waiting for!? Kill that woman!!" The goblin shaman can't believe that the goblins are standing there in fear to the woman. Even though they are in a berserk state that removes their sanity and fear of death. 

The goblins, standing still rushed towards Alex and Ezekiel like a hungry wolf. Noticing that the human slaugthering them stood in place. 

At the same time, the goblin shaman used a spell that he could use in an instant. "Cold winds gather to my hand, penetrate my enemy as I offer their blood to our ancestors. 'Ice Shard'!!" A cold gust of air amassed on the goblin shaman's hand as a huge chunk of ice formed as big as a person's arms.

He doesn't know why the man stopped her, out of nowhere. But he can't waste the chance to kill the troublesome woman. 

"I guess this is going to be our first death..." Ezekiel mumbled as the goblins creep in closer to them. He thought of letting her go to survive, but he threw the idea at the back of his mind. 

Just at the moment, a goblin's sword is going to pierce Alex's back. A soft and gentle voice reverberated through his ears. "Thanks..."

Thanks to Ezekiel, she managed to leave that dark and lonely place. A place where she always imprisons her weak self. Every time she fights seriously in the game Guardian. It was a persona of hers that doesn't care about anything but killing. One of the things in her dark past that she fears of resurfacing in the present. And she doesn't return to her usual self unless she dies or all of her enemies perish. 

Alex did not expect that her past self would reappear on the first day of the game. She thought that it would take quite some time before it resurfaces. But she was clearly underestimating herself too much. All it took was a thousand enemies surrounding her. 

The instant Ezekiel confirmed that Alex was back to normal, he loosened up his grasp. 

As soon as Ezekiel let her go, Alex changed her grip on her sword into a reverse grip. She then rotated her body as she swung her sword straight into the goblin's head. 

"Duck!!" Alex shouted as she threw the hand ax on her right arm to a goblin archer about to attack Ezekiel.

Ezekiel ducked out of reflex. Then as he turned around, he saw a goblin archer with its skull split apart. And 2 more behind it falling down to the ground with obliterated head. 

"Only this much!?" Alex smirked at the goblin shaman as she dodged his magic. 

The goblin shaman trembled at her roar. Alex treads forward closer to him. "KILL HER!!" The goblin shaman pointed his staff at her in anger. The entire army of hobgoblins burst forward. 

"Damn, what happened to you??" Ezekiel couldn't believe that the minute that they were about to be buried in the sea of goblins. Alex slaughtered all of the goblins around them in just a minute. Their weapons can't even touch her now. 

The speed she currently showed him was even faster than when she lost her senses earlier. She's even provoking the enemy's commander now as if she didn't lose her senses earlier. The time it took for her to change to her usual self took less than a second. It was as if nothing happened to her earlier. 

"I'll tell you later, now is not the right time for storytelling. But long story short, it was a force of habit." Alex explained as she stabbed a goblin's neck and grabbed its spear. On Alex's other hand, she spun her ax around once, creating a space for her. In the gap that she made, the spear she stole rushed towards the goblin shaman. The spear tore through the air, piercing two hobgoblins that blocked the spear for the goblin shaman. Nevertheless, the spear headed towards the goblin shaman's head without losing strength. 

The goblin shaman used defensive magic in a hurried manner that weakened the barrier. It was then destroyed by the spear and grazed the goblin shaman's ears. 

"Arghhh!!" The goblin shaman screamed in pain as he held his bleeding ears. 

Ezekiel can't wait for her to tell her story. After all, she doesn't talk about her past with him. Something he wished she would open up more.

Alex turned at Ezekiel without waiting for the result. Since the goblins shaman would probably live since the trajectory changed. Because of the hobgoblins that blocked the attack. "Anyway, we need to keep going!! There are still hobgoblins we need to hunt."

Alex concentrated on the hobgoblin that finally started to move towards her. She then crossed swords with a hobgoblin that has almost the same height as her. The hobgoblins are a lot stronger than the normal goblins. Since hobgoblin manages to live more than a second from her. Nevertheless, Alex used her other weapon to cut the hobgoblin's throat.

She kicked the hobgoblin away. As she aimed her sword at the goblin shaman in the distance that was healing his wounded ears. "You're next."
