We were slowly going deeper into the raid. Mobs that were attacking us there were stronger, but they weren't a big challenge for us. Especially after this fight with Agatha. It was hard to imagine something worse. In this quest you needed to kill two bosses and Agatha was one of them. She was a wife of the Randle the Handsome. Of course Randle was the last boss of this raid, and after looking at our last boss fight I was a little concerned.
"Don't worry. We will win it." FoXy said after looking at my face. It seemed that she could read me very easily.
"You are probably right..." I said and we continued our walking.
After some time we approached another big gate. It was bigger that the one that was leading to Agatha. This time FoXy didn't just opened it like a fool, but instead we prepared for the fight. I used all of my buffs on everyone, FoXy repaired our inventory and Brian made us some food, that increased our damage and defense You could learn things like this for your skill points, but I just wanted to be better at normal skills so I didn't bother. After that we opened the door.
There we saw a big throne room. It was a dark place, with many flags with a red rose on them. In the end of the room there was a throne, and a knight was sitting on it. He was wearing a black armor, and he had a massive two handed sword.

"Be careful. If he's too strong we will need to run." Brian said to FoXy and after that she approached him. When she was about twenty meters from him, Randle stood up from his throne and pointed his sword at her.
"You will die here!" he said and ran towards her, after that he attacked her with his sword.
Even when she used her sword, it still took a lot of her hp. His attacks were powerful, really powerful. He wasn't like Agatha at all. I would probably die after getting hit once by him.
But our team was good at fighting things like him. We were good while we were fighting with one enemy, not like with Agatha where we needed to take care of those skeletons. I wouldn't say that this fight was easy, but it was really boring. Randle had many really powerful attacks, but all of them were hitting only FoXy. Of course she wouldn't survive many of them, but she was good at avoiding them, and I could heal her if she needed it.
It took us a lot of time, and we couldn't make even one mistake, but we killed him.
"That was really easy." Brian said when we did it. I wanted to tell him that it was a death flag but he was right.
"It's not like it's easy. It's just that we are good in fighting things like him. I don't think that the fight with Agatha was supposed to be that hard as it was for us." I replied and both of them looked at me.
We didn't had the most optimal party. We didn't had a mage or warrior with us. For that reason fighting with many mobs was hard for us, because we were lacking in the AOE aspect. But if we were fighting with a single target, then we were really good. Brian had a high one target damage, FoXy could tank a lot of attacks, and I could heal her all the time.
It wasn't like the raid was badly done, we just had a weird party, that was more about the defence that it was about the damage. I'm sure that if someone took a mage or a warrior instead of a healer, they would have many problems while fighting with Randle, and it would easier for them to fight with Agatha.
"You know a lot Lilly." FoXy said while we were leaving the raid.
Well, it was true. I played many MMORPGs, and many times I saw people just playing high dps roles, just because they wanted to do more damage. I can understand that, but you need a healer and a knight in a party. You can always find someone to do damage, but it's hard to find someone who can take or heal this damage.
"It's still night out there." Brian said when we exited the raid. We were standing in the cemetery, near the entrance to the raid. It took us some time to do this quest, but it wasn't long enough for the day to come.
"Now we just need to go to the city. After that I think I will go to sleep." FoXy said and started walking.
Then I heard a laugh. It was a man's laugh. A laugh that I had never heard before.
When I looked into its directions I saw a mage. He had a short red hair, small eyes and a weird face. He was a Beast. But there was something that was more interesting about him. His nick. It was red.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome!" xXxYourDeathIsNearxXx said.
I could only cringe right now.
"It took you so much time I thought you might have died there! Hahaha! But I'm happy that you are safe right now! This way I can take your gold!" he said and smiled. When he did that 4 more people appeared next to him. All of them had cringy names, all of them had red hair, and all of them were weak.
"W-What do you want from us!" Brian said.
Why are you even scared?
"Hahhahaha! I want your life and your gold!" xXxYourDeathIsNearxXx said and smiled with a gross smile.
I knew people like them. They thought that they were dark or something. You can find them in any MMORPG. In RaS, after you kill a player in a safe zone you get a red name. It makes guards attack you when they see you, and NPCs won't talk to you. It goes away after 5 hours.
They only things you can get after killing someone like that is some gold, but it's not really worth it. For that reason the only players that do it must be...
"I will enjoy killing you!"
Idiots.
When he said he started chanting the spell. It looked like a fireball.
"Like I will let you!" Brian shouted and shooted at him.
The mage stopped his chanting and dodged the attack.
"W-What do you think you are doing! Do something about him!" he said, and people that were beside him started running towards us.
Well I said that they were weak but still, there were more of them that there were us. Two mages, two warriors and one hunter. All of them were offensive classes. There surely was a way to use this.
"FoXy, use taunt one those one the backline!" I shouted.
"How would I do that!? There are two warriors before them!"
Yeah, there were two warriors now going towards us. It would be hard for her to go after those mages and hunter. It would be hard if they were normal people. There is one thing that is different than fighting against mobs when you are fighting humans. Especially those weird ones. They are weak to words.
"Don't worry about them. They are so weak that it's sad to even look at them." I said and started running. Strangely enough both of them started running towards me with angry faces.
In the meantime FoXy ran towards those mages and used her taunt on them. Then Brian used all of his skills to attack them. I have never seen him attack so fast. They must have made him really angry.
In those four seconds of taunt he killed one mage and a hunter, but xXxYourDeathIsNearxXx still had a lot of hp. There was a simple reason for that. He had a better equipment. Looking at all those people, this mage had the best things on him. It looked like they gave him all of his money that they got. It made him really strong, but it was stupid, because others were really weak for that reason.
When the duration of the taunt was over, xXxYourDeathIsNearxXx jumped away from them and then he started using his potions. FoXy wanted to go after him but I needed some help.
"Hey! Help me!" I shouted.
After that FoXy came to rescue me. She ran towards me, and when she was near me she used her shield to cover me. Then I started chanting "Holy missile" on one of those warriors. In the same time Brian used one of his more powerful spells too.
It was too much for this warrior to take, and after taking all of this damage he died. The other one then started running towards the mage. Both of them had full hp now.
"You are good. Really good. But don't think you can take us on. Attack them!" he shouted at the warrior.
"B-But..."
"Don't worry! You know how strong my spells are! We will burn them!"
Well, his spells must be strong. After looking at how much damage Brian made to him, I could say that his equipment was good. His spells must do a lot of damage. It would be bad to take something like this.
When the warrior heard him he only smiled, and started running towards us. For some reason he was really confident.
FoXy then covered me with her shield, to make sure that this spell won't do any damage to me. Brian just withdrew a little bit, to make sure that he can't be targeted. The warrior was running towards us, and we were waiting for the mage to use his spells. But he didn't. Instead he...
"H-Hey what are you doing! Don't leave me!"
He ran.
"Hahahah!" Brian started laughing, and FoXy used her taunt on the warrior. After that we took most of his hp. He was almost dying, and he was looking at us with angry face.
"D-Don't think this is the end. I will kill all of you. I will..." I couldn't listen to this cringy monologue so I just used "Holy missile" on him.
"Well, I didn't want to listen to him either." FoXy said to me when I did it.
"Shit. But the other one ran away." Brian said with an angry face.
"Don't think about this. It's good that we even defeated them."
She was right. It was really good. I mean, they weren't good. They were really bad. They put all of their money on one person, they can't play as a team, and they are easy to provoke, but there was still five of them. In MMORPGs numbers are everything, and if you don't have a really overpowered character, something like this should be impossible.
After this fight we talked for a little bit. We were all really tired after this raid, and this weird fight. FoXy really wanted to sleep, and I was a little hungry so we called it a day.
Then I logged off, and I woke up in my room. It was dirty, but I didn't mind. I went downstairs, making sure that I don't make too much noise. I wouldn't want to wake up my mother. After that I heated up the dinner for myself. My mom used to call me for the food, but she don't do this anymore.
Well, it's not like it makes me sad.
After that I went to sleep. In the next day I started looking at the forums. I wanted to read more about those people, and find out if others fought with them too. RaS has a big community, so something like this should be here, but Instead of this I found a photo of a short, white haired girl that was killing a warrior. It was the most popular topic in the forum called "My cute teammate takes care of player killers" made by a person called BIGelfX.
