Athanor Online: Monarch of War

Small talk

Chapter 30's

"Huh. huh.. huh.."

The Zephys sat quite exhausted due to the quite intense clash from the battle that had just taken place. Zephys played a very important role in the battle that just happened, Zephys used all his strength to help clean the kobolds and pulled agro some kobolds because two of the four tanks had lost

Zephys did not have a high Vit stat therefore Zephys could not be too attractive agro, plus the Zephys did not have armor or shield equipment that is mandatory equipment tanks, and the Zephys did not have any armor, but it was covered by Dex and Strnya's high stat because with both stat, Zephys was able to dodge their attacks while dealing Harass damage to them

Note: Harass is slashing with great damage to the opponent so that teammates can win the war easily

Zephys looked at his status and realized that his level had risen by three levels. Zephys was not too happy because with the number of mob monsters that Zephys defeated quite a lot and he should have levelled up five to eight levels. Zephys also understood why the experience that Zephys had gained was not too great, it was because Zephys was part of the party and was exposed to the division of experience with other party members

Actually the experience that Zephys gain is quite high from most players here, it is because Zephys is very participating in the clashes that occur in this battle. But even so Zephys did not realize it because he was used to hunting or leveling alone

"Zephy"

Hearing his name being called, Zephys turned to the source of the voice and found a player with blond hair and a shield on his back and a sword on his waist. The Zephys who saw the player quickly recognized him, the player was Kris

"Thank you for the help" Kris said as she offered a Hp potion to Zephys

Zephys happily received the potion and drank it immediately. Zephys also realized that the hp potion that Kris gave him was a hp potion made by Zephys. In his heart Zephys is very proud of the achievement and success of his potion sales which are classified as very selling, the income he gets is also like an office person or maybe more

Chris then sat down beside the Zephys and Zephys too. Zephys looked around and he also confirmed how many players had survived the intense clash. Lazy to count, Zephys decided to ask Kris

"How many players have lost?"

"Four men, two tanks and two fighters"

Zephys who heard the information only gave a small nod, honestly losing four people was not too much to lose considering how difficult it was to fight enemies with more numbers. The situation at that time could even flatten players but fortunately there were some players who appeared flashy and his presence had a great effect on the direction of the battle. Kris, Hide and Zephys are some examples

Losing four players is not too detrimental, but the problem is that the two players who lose are tanks that are arguably one of the key holders of victory against the boss. As far as Zephys there are only four players who have a Tank Class and two of them are dead which in other words there are only two Tanks left, namely Kris and one other player

And to fight this Dungeon Boss that is Kargalan, by using only two tanks, then the news that will happen next is not good news, either, plus the party also lost two fighters which is considered the main damage of the party. Zephys thought a little bit that maybe in the future it will be more difficult

"Zephys, Kris, can I sit here?"

Both Zephys and Kris, they turned to the source of the sound and found a player that Zephys had known recently, Hide. Zephys and Kris allowed Hide to sit next to them, and Hide sat down and opened the conversation

"You're indeed a great player Zephys!, I didn't expect that a player of the 40s could make such a move!" Speak Hide with a tone and a look of spirit

Hide is not just nonsense, Hide can conclude this because he saw firsthand how Zephys is able to dodge all the attacks that lead to him, and even the parameters of the Hp Zephys are still green and do not touch the yellow color at all, not only that, Hide also saw how cleverly Zephys found a gap from the cooperation of several kobolds who ganged on him. And this proves that the Zephys' ability is very high, and Hide also understands a little how terrible Zephys is

Zephys only chuckled under his crow mask when he heard Hide's praise. It is true that Zephys managed to perform brilliantly by avoiding the cooperation of several kobolds without damage, and Zephys also gave a counterattack on several occasions that he saw, he said, well you could say Zephys was an influential player on the battle this time around

The reason why Zephys was able to avoid the chase and the deadly attacks that the kobolds gave him, was because Zephys used F Mode or Focus Mode to do such awesome things. However, Zephys was very mentally drained because he used F Mode for too long because he had no choice but to use it

"You also fought well Kris!, you deserve to be my best friend!"

"Can you lower the volume of your voice? my eardrum could break because of you"

"Hey!, you should be thanking me for praising you after such a long time!"

"I don't care, so shut up"

'So they know each other...'

Zephys was a little surprised by their relationship, as the dialogue between them proved that they were both close friends and might also be real friends.

Ignoring Hide who was raving indistinctly towards Kris, Zephys then asked him something that had been bothering him since

"So Kris how are you planning now?"

The statement from Zephys made the two friends in front of him silent for a moment, it was seen that Hide who had been babbling was now silent. Zephys asked this, because of course Zephys did not want to enter the Boss Dungeon room with a half-baked plan let alone they lost two tanks and two fighters who were quite detrimental

The party is losing its members and that means there is a backup plan or a new plan. Plan or strategy is very important because with a strategy then a victory will be more easily achieved

Hearing the question from the Zephys made Kris slightly smile and immediately answered the question that Zephys was asking

'Huh?'

Zephys tilted her head indicating that she was confused at this time. Zephys thought Kris was an intelligent and creative player in determining strategy, but why didn't Kris change this strategy? Zephys was quite confused

'If it's true Kris doesn't want to change this strategy then...'

"Kris do you want to hold the Agro Boss Dungeon with two tanks in turn?"

Quite a reasonable thing came out of the mouth of the Zephys, if it was only two tanks then it was likely that the Zephys predicted was one of the tanks holding the Agro Boss Dungeon then another one taking cover behind. And when the tank in front of it begins to fatigue, it will change position with the tank in the back and of course fill the hp with a healer at the back, and they continue to alternate

This strategy was the most plausible strategy that Zephys could think of. This strategy is quite good but on the other hand it is also very risky, because after all holding the agro of a Dungeon Boss alone is very difficult

"Unfortunately, he's not a tank but just a warior with a high enough phone, and I'm the only pure tank player left here"

"In other words you will..."

"Truely, I will hold the Agro Boss Dungeon alone"

Zephys who heard that only smiled wryly. If it was true that this was his plan then this was tantamount to suicide, no player in Athanor Online would be able to withstand the agro Boss Monster alone, alone, only a player of the class of Barnaq and Hercule was able to do so

Seeing this difficulty made the Zephys hesitate a bit to Kris. Kris who saw Zephys looking at him hesitantly gave his explanation immediately

"Are you curious?"

"Well that's how it is..."

"There are two reasons why I dare to do this, the first is that I am confident in my abilities, the second is that I believe in Hide and you Zephys"

"Huh?"

Unlike Hide who nodded proudly, Zephys was confused by this

"Both you and Hide, you two have a huge damage at your level let alone you Zephys, I saw firsthand the pain of your attack and the speed of your movement"

'Well that's because my Str and Dex are pretty tall'

"If the information we get is correct, then if this party's overall damage combined should be enough to defeat the Dungeon Boss before my HP parameters run out"

Zephys who heard that even a little chuckle, Zephys did not expect that Kris was a person who had high self-confidence. Confidence is a good character and must be in everyone, but too confident is also not good

Zephys was afraid that Kris could not hold back the Agro Boss Dungeon and instead caused the party formation to fall apart, and the fatal result was that they could all be killed. Honestly, Zephys was quite hesitant at Kris at the moment

Kris then stood up to leave Zephys and Hide, and walked towards the large door that was still tightly closed. Kris then raised the volume and began to speak

"Ok friends the break time is over"

Hearing that the party members immediately stood up as well as Zephys and Hide

"Are you ready!"

""Ready!""

Kris then pushed the door of the Boss Dungeon's room, and slowly but surely a light from inside the room was evident from the opening of the door

Kris then stepped into the Boss Dungeon's room and was followed by several players behind him. Among the spirit of the player, Zephys was even a little worried that the plan that Kris gave was successful and Zephys was also quite hesitant with him

"Trust Chris"

Between his thoughts, Hide went in and put a little emphasis. Zephys could only smile a little, because after all one of the keys to this victory was also in his hands

"You're right Hide"
