Hikari: Rise Of The Weapons Master

[ Drunk Fist: A special martial arts technique that makes one fight while being drunk.

— Adds drunk status

— +30 strength

— -20 agility ]

[ Drunk rage: In ancient times, when monks tasted wine, they entered a mode known as drunk rage which both boosted their attack power and decreased their speed and thinking power.

— +20 strength

— -30 intelligence ]

The two skills were balanced in their own ways which looked good since a monk with too many buffs could be lethal.

But what surprised Zack the most was the name of the last skill that the monk used.

"Buddha's Embrace, first form: the embrace of peace." The red aura around the man suddenly turned pink in color as all the rage on his face vanished, being replaced with a calm expression again.

[ Buddha's Embrace, first form: Embrace of peace: Only those favored by Buddha himself can use this skill.

- Frees the body from any kind of ill state and gives immunity to such attacks for an hour.

- Adds +30 dexterity.

- 20 strength ]

All three of the skills were perfect counters for each other. As long as Buddha's embrace was active, the effects of drunk fist and drunk rage would not work on a monk and the boosts from the two skills made up for the -20 strength.

"He more or less covered the gap between himself and the two eagles," Zack muttered with a smile as Emma looked at the monk with anticipation.

"But there are two of them and he is alone." She added as the boy stood up and gave Daedalus a long look.

'Daedalus, fight him alone. If anything goes bad, Icarus will step forward and kill the old man. Otherwise, our goal is to capture him alive.' Zack told his plan to the two eagles using telepathy before he looked at Emma.

"We are going to find that formation just in case she is planning some kind of surprise attack for us."

As Daedalus stepped forward to fight the monk, Zack and Emma started looking for the formations.

'But unfortunately, you will never find me.' Lisa grinned at the attempt of the duo to find her.

​ She was currently flying over the battlefield and had a cloaking formation surrounding her. Although anyone above level 10 could see her, she was currently safe since Zack and Emma were below level 10.

The two eagles were the duo's companions and despite their levels, they couldn't see Lisa either.

'Who could have thought that the trickster job class would be this beneficial.' Lisa thought with a smile while being proud of herself for choosing the niche.

The trickster job class allowed her to learn formations since it included trapping people. Though her formations were only half as effective as those created by players with the formations master job class.

Lisa wanted to obtain the formations master job class but so far, no news had appeared on the topic of subclass. Till that time, she was stuck using the limited formations the trickster job class offered.

Lisa then looked at the leader of the party with a smile since she had seen him using the same techniques before. But the only thing that had been truly dangerous was the skill that almost allowed him to make Lisa his slave.

'It will be a fun battle. I wonder if he will force the beast as well.' Lisa's smile widened as she saw the brown feathered eagle making the first move.

Daedalus soared high towards the sky while shedding tons of his feathers. The moment a feather would leave his body, it would become stiff and hard while being sharp enough to cut a rock in half.

The eagle regenerated one feather every minute but due to the restrictions of the battle, his feathers could only be regenerated once every ten minutes.

Daedalus, however, looked as though he had already won the battle. There were currently ten thousand of his feathers flying around him and he could control all of them freely.

'I wonder what Zack wanted to accomplish through this fight.' Daedalus still didn't know what his partner had planned though he had to admit that it had been a long time since he had felt challenged by any person.

'Even if it's temporary, perhaps restrictions will be the thing that will make me feel the thrill of battle again.' The eagle grinned before he dived towards the grounds with his feathers beside him.

Zack looked at this scene with a smile as he realized that making Daedalus fight the monk alone was a good decision.

He had wanted to check both of their capabilities and Daedalus chose the perfect way to do it. For the monk, it was quite unfortunate that he was battling someone who had hundreds of years of experience.

The eagle sent hundreds of feathers towards the monk who looked at them with a calm expression. He raised his right hand in front of him before muttering the name of a skill.

"Rotating palm." The monk started spinning on his place as a blue barrier-like thing erected around him.

The feathers were repelled back in Daedalus could easily control them and keep sending them towards the monk again.

The old monk realized that no matter how many feathers he pushed back, they kept on coming towards him. While gritting his teeth, he jumped to the side and had a few feathers piece his arms.

Blood covered his right arm as the monk then stared at other eagle behind Daedalus and realized that even if he would a way to counter the feathers, the two eagles could easily take him down.

"Buddha's embrace, second form: shackles of peace." The monk used his trump card black chain emerged from his palm and moved towards the two eagles.

Daedalus and Icarus looked at the chain with smiles as they stood in their places. This irked the monk since he had thought that the eagles would flee at the sight of the chains.

The second form of Buddha's embrace allowed the monk to capture all those who didn't follow Buddha unless and until they had a higher authority above them.

At least, that's what the skill could do at the pinnacle level.

Currently, the monk could half enslave any people up to level 30 and since the two eagles had a restriction on their body, they could be captured by him.

However, when the chains were a few feet away from the eagles, they suddenly fell down on the ground.

[ The absolute contract between the two eagles and their owners 'Zack' and 'WolfHeart' prevents the two beasts from being enslaved. ]

'Then I guess I should do the honorable thing.' The monk thought with a sigh as he took out a dagger and moved it towards his neck.

But before the dagger could pierce his neck, a dagger hit his palm and made the dagger fall down. In the blink of an eye, thousands of feathers were surrounding the monk as he gulped in fear.

He already knew what was about to happen and he was not a fan of it.

"I surrender." He muttered while falling to the ground.

[ Player Neji has surrendered. ]

[ The guild leader of the guild 'A Pervert's Wish' has surrendered.

The remaining members can surrender or get killed. ]
