With extra careful movements, Asher carried the blue-winged fairy's body. He could feel the fairy's heartbeat getting weaker and weaker, so as soon as possible he brought the poor fairy back to the village of Altaria for help from fairy elders before it was too late.
"My goodness, thank you for bringing our friend back." The fairy in the red hat smiled, her happiness obvious. "I will check on her now. Come with me."The fairy elder led them to a house not far from her position.
'You have completed the quest: Lost Fairy part 1. Earned 1700 Exp.'
'You have earned 200 gold coins.’
"So, how is it? How about this fairy? Is she fine?" Asher furrowed his brows, seeing that this poor fairy hadn't moved her body.
"Her condition is quite weak along with her broken wing, it's difficult to help her." The red fairy elder sighed.
"Wait, so you're saying we can't help this fairy?"
"No, We can help her, but I need quite a few materials and certainly cannot get them all fast."
"Just count on us. Chronos and I will help you find those materials, fairy elder."
"Quest 3: Broken wing (required)"

Asher carefully read through the list of materials required by the fairy elders to help this poor fairy. Almost all of the materials required by the fairy elders sounded unfamiliar to obtain because, during his time in the forest, the wild wolves trying to kill him had only dropped items in the form of Wolf fur and fangs.
"Shit, flower nectar? Where the hell are we supposed to find that item in the forest of Altaria?"
"I don't know Chronos, but we may be lacking at exploring the Altaria forest."
Soon Asher pressed the quest button and saw the fairy elder slowly covering the poor fairy's body with her thick blanket. "I'll take care of this poor fairy, be careful out there."
The two of them left the fairy elder, trying to find all the materials the fairy elder needed. But before that, Chronos suggested to Asher to increase the power of the weapons as well as buy some additional items considering they almost died during the previous mission.
"I know where we're going. Come on, Ash come with me. There's a place I want to show you."

"Uh, wait where are we going, Chronos?"
"Relax, you'll see."
Chronos also pulled Asher's hand, leading him to walk away from the residence where the poor fairy was being treated until finally after a few minutes of walking, they finally arrived at a building. A fairly large signboard with the words "Weapon & Item Shop" was displayed in Asher's eyes.
Based on the signboard, Asher immediately realized this place must be selling various weapons and some additional items that they needed. Honestly, he didn't expect a place like this to exist because he was only focused on completing the mission without trying to get around the Altaria village.
"Chronos, I didn't expect you to find a place like this."
"I also coincidence to see it. Come on, now we have to go inside this place and look for the items we need."
As Asher opened the door of the building his eyes were immediately treated to several pieces of equipment for players to use such as knives, axes, spears, and bows attached to the walls of the building like a collection of photographs. Several long glass tables filled with several glass bottles full of colorful liquids were arranged quite neatly inside. They decided to buy new weapons and some items based on their money.
'You bought Altaria's fairy wand (lv.1)'
[The fairy wand widely used by fairies in the village of Altaria can increase mana power by about +20.]
'You bought 2x potions, 4x bombs, 2x antidotes.
[Potion: Restores HP (Health Point) of allies in small amounts]
[Bomb: A small bomb that produces an explosion to kill monsters]
[Antidote: Medicine to eliminate the effects of poison]
"Alright, I'm ready. Now we should go into the Altaria forest and start collecting the materials."
After having all the items they needed, they decided to immediately explore the Altaria forest deeper than before. But during their time there, they only saw wolf packs constantly popping up, so the two of them had to defeat all the wolves that were trying to get in their way.
'Lv up to lv. 6'
"Fuck, we've been in this place long enough to see nothing but these damn wolves," Chronos grumbled. "Is it possible that the fairy elders give us the wrong information?"
"I don't think so, Chronos." Asher pointed his index finger forward. "Look over there. I have never seen that before. I don't know, but it looks like the mouth of a cave, right?"
"Yes, I agree. I think there's something in there and we should check it out."
"Uh, wait Chronos. Are you sure you want to check it out?" Asher looked into the mouth of the cave. "It's pretty dark in here anyway and I'm not sure it's safe enough for us to explore."
"Hey, but look over there. There are so many small holes that are illuminated with moonlight, so we should still be able to see inside the cave even if it's faint." Chronos valiantly stepped into the cave. "Hurry up, we have to get all the materials needed to help that poor fairy."
"Yes, alright."
During their time in the cave, Asher did not find anything strange at all. There were only stalagmites and stalactites scattered in the cave-like any other cave. He continued to walk through the cave until his foot accidentally kicked something.
"Fuck, what's that?"
"Sorry, my mistake. But Chronos, look at this." Asher picked up an empty glass bottle lying beside him. "This is a potion bottle and it must have belonged to another player."
"Strange, what are the other players doing in this cave? Could there be something in this cave?" Chronos hugged both hands tightly. "Shit. Why is the air in this cave suddenly getting colder and colder? Do you feel it, Ash?"
"Yes Chronos, I feel it too and it seems like the source is coming from in front of us. "Asher continued to rub his palms together quickly. "I'm sure there must be something there. Come on, we have to check it out."
A few minutes into the cave, they finally managed to find the source of the gust of wind. The source turned out to come from behind the vines which were arranged so neatly- looked like a curtain a few meters in front of them. They drove through the vines until they made it out of the cave.
"Huh, I never expected this cave to be connected to a forest. It's the same as the Altaria forest we passed through." Chronos cast his eyes around. "Ash, is it possible that we're returning to the same forest?"
"No, Chronos. This place does look the same as the Altaria forest before, but look over there." He pointed his index finger at the forest. "He pointed his index finger forward. "There's a thorny hedge over there that wasn't in the forest we passed through before. I believe we are in another part of the Altaria forest."
"Yes, your words seem to be true. We're probably in another part of the Altaria forest and I think we can ask the figure by the fence directly." Chronos squinted his eyes, trying to get a better look at the figure "Wait, wait what why does an old fairy alone in this forest?"
