Rioneed: VRMMORPG

Ibro felt a deep cold shiver in his spine. He was on the doorstep of death. He felt really lucky that he had Dronil by his side. If not he would have died by now. He looked at the leader with a pale face and said:

"You should warn everyone that came here."

"You are kidding, right? It took me all this trouble to convince you. I warn others? That will be impossible. No one will believe me."

His words seemed logical to Ibro. He really didn't believe him till the last moment. Without Dronil he would still suspect this leader's words. That made him felt terrible. What he should do now?

Was there no other way out from this catastrophe? If he wanted to help them win this war, then he wasn't enough. He was just one person. His powers were very weak. What should he do then?

"Do you know how long before the end of this war?"

"We still have time. Don't worry; you will help us win this war."

"I really doubt that."

"Don't belittle yourself. I will now answer the remaining question of yours. Why I took all this trouble to convince you? Because you are a trine Rune Master. You are stronger than you think you are."

"Is this because of my runes? I doubt they will be enough for winning the war."

"You are more than enough. Your runes have the ability to grow stronger.

All you need to do is to practice more. I will give you the authority to use all the reserves we had in this camp. I want you to mass produce your runes."

Ibro wasn't convinced by this as he said:

"My runes won't be enough. You just said that these enemies had many armies out there. They will find a way to make things worse for us."

"Don't belittle us that badly. It took many weeks for these armies to finish us. So all you need to focus on is the production of these runes. "

"Are you sure? Won't that man interfere here and change things?"

"No way. This man only knew how to curse others but he can't edit or interfere in his curses. Once he released one curse he loses all his power on it."

Ibro felt these words to be convincing. He then decided to follow that leader plan.

"Ok, I will start manufacturing these runes as fast as I can."

"Good luck then."

Ibro moved from the tent under the guidance of one of these leader's men.

He didn't know yet his name but he didn't care. He was thinking about the future. Here he would gain a lot of power, would he keep it when he came back to his world?

He hoped that would be the case. Every time the army would use his runes he would get more energy. The more energy he got, the more powerful his runes would be.

"Dronil, what do you think about that leader's story?"

He asked Dronil while he was making his runes. He was sitting in a big tent that was like the leader's tent. It had a huge space inside.

It wasn't a village like the other tent, but it was an open space filled with different ores. These ores were stockpiled like mountains here. When he reached here at first, the people responsible for managing this place didn't allow him to use anything.

Just as that guard handed over the supreme leader's order they allowed him to use the ores here. Ibro started working at once and made dozens of runes in the next hours. When he got a rest he asked Dronil about his opinion.

"I believe that his unbelievable story is real. That force that tried to hijack you was real. So that man's words can be real."

"It also can be false."

"I didn't any lying from this man."

"I didn't mean he was lying to me, I also felt he was telling the truth. At least he was convinced by the truth of his words."

"What do you mean Ibro?"

"I mean that man knew everything from the mouth of his colleague. What if that colleague of his was deceiving him?"

"What benefit that man would get by doing that?"

"I really don't know. Tell me, can you take the energy that is stored in me?"

"You mean I store that energy? But you are in need to get stronger fast."

"I know, but I just want to take some precautions. You must get stronger too."

"I can absorb your energy. But I recommend you focus on yourself."

Ibro held few runes he didn't give to the men around him. These were Odd Runes. He held them in his hand tightly and said:

"Don't worry about me. I have already taken my precautions. You just need to absorb half of my powers."

"Ok, I will do this from now on."

Ibro wasn't exaggerating here. He really hated to play in another one's turf. He didn't know a lot. All the info he got came from an unknown source. He didn't trust strangers.

These runes were his hidden trump cards if things got messy. He then continued to manufacture these runes at a fast pace. At night there was another war that lasted for a few hours.

The energy he got was immense even after Dronil's absorption. He felt himself getting stronger and stronger. In the morning he felt tired and had a strong desire to sleep.

"Don't feel surprised. Here you aren't playing in the game. Your body needs to eat and rest. Here is the real world like your real one."

Ibro felt weird about this. He had already taken two meals in the previous night. He thought it was a routine from the camp here. He didn't think he was back to real life again.

He asked for a place to sleep. He then got his own tent. He settled his tent at his working place. The inside of the tent wasn't as big as the two tents he entered before.

It was like a small house with three floors. This house had multiple beds. He selected one randomly and fell in deep sleep. When he woke up he started to work again.

During his sleep that lasted for the whole morning till evening, there were two battles that took place. The pace of the army deletion of his runes was faster than the pace of making them. When he woke up he noticed his body was empty from any energy.

"I took all the energy while you were sleeping."

"That's good. I want you to be stronger rapidly. Tell me, can you unlock any new function soon?"

"Actually I can unlock one function in three days if this pace kept going up."

Ibro felt excited. The first function of Dronil was very powerful. He didn't know what the second function would be. Would it be another powerful function? Or it would be a useless one?

He hoped it to be the first option. Ibro then had his breakfast and started working diligently. During his work, he noticed that his Mega Omega was getting more powerful.

He had a theory in his mind but he waited till dawn to try it. When dawn came he had enough power in his Mega Omega to create two runes at the same time.

During this time, three big battles happened in the frontlines. He got a lot of power as the army began to depend on his runes. Ibro was very excited by this power.

He was excited because he intended to make two sets of runes at the same time. He got himself familiar with the symbols he kept writing over and over again till he knew it by heart.

He didn't need Dronil's help at all. When he felt his energy were enough, he held two stones at the same time and tried to write on both of them simultaneously.

He did so by writing the same word twice in a row. When he finished he managed to create two runes with nearly half the time required to make them separately.

He felt thrilled and started to apply this technique. Every success would make him more familiar with the process. So the next try would take a slightly shorter duration.

He kept making runes and absorbing energy till midday. He felt really tired and couldn't keep up. So he went to sleep again at his tent. When he entered the tent he heard Dronil's warning:contemporary romance

"Warning, there is someone that is trying to sneak in your tent."

Ibro was at the doorstep of his house. He turned around in vigilance. He didn't see anyone at all so he asked:

"Where is he? Has he entered the tent yet?"

"He is using a stealth technique. He is now at the entry of your tent trying to wait for you to sleep I guess. In my opinion, he will enter here in five minutes."

"Stealth technique? That's as assassination! Are these monsters trying to kill me? That's good, I just needed to test my Odd runes effect."
