Hikari: Rise Of The Weapons Master

[ You heard those words, Emma? ] Zack asked while acting as though he and Emma were discussing strategies.

But in reality, Daedalus and Icarus had warned them about someone looking on them so Zack and Emma had used echo detection and in the silent forest, they managed to hear the words being spoken by the people spying on them.

But instead of asking the two eagles to attack the group, Zack's attention was focused on the name an old man had spoken.

'Lisa… I wonder if she is the same Lisa I was looking for.' While thinking about that, Zack turned his attention towards Emma and raised an eyebrow.

"So shall we start heading back towards our guild and open that mythic grade loot box we got?" Zack asked out loud as Emma nodded.

"It's better to open it at the guild. Who knows, we might get lucky and obtain a legendary item with that 5% drop rate." She replied and raised her right hand to her mouth before whistling sharply.

All of a sudden, a pack of ten wolves came running out of the bushes and bowed in front of Emma.

[ Ice Wolves (Level 5 each): Wolves that had grown up in the cold northern region before migrating to the warm eastern continent. ]

The last time the wolves had made their appearance, all of them had been level 16 each but because of Emma's new level, they too had fallen from their original levels.

"Please tell me you have the sleigh for them WolfHeart…"

"I don't…"

The two of them stared at each other before looking at the ice wolves. They were thrice the size of a normal wolf and were only a few inches shorter than a full-grown female elephant.

If they wanted, they could climb on the wolf and escape but Zack had to make sure that he established contact with Lisa.

As far as Zack knew, Lisa had the trickster job class which was one of the most less chosen job classes in the entire game.

But what people didn't know was that with the help of the trickster job class, one could learn the ways of a thief, an assassin, a scammer, a trap master, and the ultimate expression controlling skill.

A girl like Lisa used the trickster job class to the fullest because of her experience on Earth. Not only that but she had even managed to scam the NPCs sometimes.

'Which just comes to show that the NPCs are much more realistic than they should be.' Zack thought before giving Emma a look, signaling that it was time to move to the next phase of the plan.

"Let's just go on foot," Emma said with a sigh as she dismissed the wolves. "They will most probably throw us off their backs."

The duo then started moving towards the place where the party of eight were hiding.

***

"Holy sht, they are coming this way." The nerd from earlier, Kevin, looked excited as he looked at the old monk for further guidance.

"Lisa set the traps for them and after that, me, XXX, and CKTalon will battle them in close range."

""As you say, sir!"" The rest of the party members replied with full excitement but Lisa just yawned.

"Then please get aside unless you want to be blown away." She bent down towards the ground and pressed her hand on the ground.

All six of the men moved away as Lisa could feel that they were deliberately going behind her. Even though she had shown skin before, it had mostly been to groups of three men.

Lisa had also known that no matter what happened, she would be able to escape from them so she currently had no worries about such stuff.

But now, she no longer had that confidence since she had been captured by the group because of the old monk.

'I wonder if these two can even scratch the old man while being this weak .' Lisa wondered with a smile as she wanted Zack and Emma to go ahead and kill the entire party excluding herself.

'Maybe I should give him a striptease in return if he promises to free me.'

Lisa then closed her eyes and started focusing on setting the traps that would get the two players captured.

***

[ Emma, I am pretty sure that they will be setting a trap for us but make sure you don't fall for the obvious ones. We have to make it look as though we had never expected to get trapped. ] Zack relied through a private message since he still had no idea whether they were being spied upon or not.

[ I have the hunter job class, I can spot the obvious traps so you don't have to worry about the common traps like the fishnet trap where we get pulled up towards a branch of a tree or the arrow trap which releases poisonous arrows when we reach a certain place. ]

[ Then that's good. ]

While walking towards the particular area, Zack and Emma encountered a bear that had decided to make them its food.

'He is only level 4 so…' A smile appeared on Zack's face as he raised his right hand in the giant brown bear's direction.

"Blue flames!" Bright blue flames shot out from his hand and hit the bear in the chest.

From there onwards, they extended towards the rest of its body and started burning him alive. The bear died within a few seconds and all that was left behind were ashes.

Sadly, Zack didn't level up but getting to kill a bear within a single hit felt nice.

In this way, he also showed the group that he had his powers with him so they won't take him lightly. In fact, if anyone was recording him without him knowing about it, it would let the others see that he still had his powers.

[ Don't flex when you are low leveled. For all we know, some dumbass is gonna set a rumor saying that whoever kills you will get the skill. ]

[ You just raised a flag…. ] Zack replied while staring at Emma in dismay.

[ Too late kek. ] Emma gave him a wink which made Zack sigh.

The flag had been raised and there was nothing that could be done.

So with that, the duo willingly walked towards a trap set for them.
