Chapter Three - Overdose

Yuu started to wonder to himself how he could evolve [Kid Sasuke] then he remembered the [Sharingan] card he had. Figures that any Uchiha member would have an increase in strength with the [Sharingan]. Except when you think about it, there were different versions of it not to mention some were upgraded versions.

This got Yuu to thinking that there may be another os [Kid Sasuke]. Since it had ‘Kid’ in the name of the card, that meant there had to be an adult version. Adult Sasuke did not need [Sharingan] since he had something even better.

Yuu was not planning on evolving [Kid Sasuke] just yet, since he had another good fight in him. When he was down to 1 turn left, then he’d evolve him.

Would he evolve into curse mark or something else? Yuu actually could not wait to find out. He was excited for it!

Ben had a surprised look on his face when he say [Kid Sasuke] standing there with a cold expression on his face.

Ben blinked his eyes to make sure he was not dreaming. An anime character was standing right in front of him. He did not take any drugs last night, so he knew that was not the cause of it.

“Yuu, did you summon him?” Ben asked curiously.

“Yeah… pretty awesome huh. Maybe I should stop looking down on summoner classes in mmorpg games.” Yuu replied with a grin on his face.

Yuu always thought tcg games were boring, but now that this was basically his class he found it slightly fun. Either he becomes good at it or he’ll die. Yuu did not want to die, but if he was going to die anyways why not have some fun beforehand.

“Sweet! I think being an arsonist is fun and all, i’m like a firebender. However, it really drains me of my stamina. How much experience did you gain from killing that thing?” Ben asked.

Yuu looked at Ben weirdly. “Ugh… what experience?” Yuu couldn’t help but ask.

“What do you mean what experience? Didn’t you gain 100 exp?”

“No.”

“Maybe it is because of your class? Like I am level 1 right now, but if I get another kill i’ll be level 2. You said you are a summoner, weird you did not get any experience points.” Ben said.

Yuu thought about it and remembered that in tcg games, since the cards you have do all the fighting you don’t really gain experience. Levels in those games do not mean anything as it does not determine the outcome of a match.

Since his class was basically the same, it more than likely followed the same rules.

“Whatever, let’s hurry to Elijah. Hopefully he hasn’t left yet.” Yuu said.

Ben nodded his head and dashed off towards the big building followed by Yuu.

As Yuu was running, he started eyeing his surroundings. Looking at it, there were not a lot of monsters running around. There were students who were facing them, and some were running away.

In total, he caught sight of twenty. Not including the ones he and Ben faced earlier.

Bang!

A large axe embedded itself into the ground in front of Ben and Yuu. The axe was rusty but larger than a grown man. Holding the axe was an overly large creature with grayish-green skin. It had a skull necklace around its neck and skulls around its legs. Crimson red eyes and two large tusk.

It smirked as it looked at Ben and Yuu.

“What the hell is that?” Ben asked as he took a step back.

Yuu inspected the creature. It was called [Orc Lord - Chieftain] with a huge attacking power of five and a defense of five. Yuu glanced at [Kid Sasuke] and gulped down. There was no way he could defeat that thing.

[You’ve encountered Larkson College field boss. Defeat the boss and all the surrounding monsters will flee.]

[Congratulations on discovering a clue to surviving. Field bosses appear in certain locations daily. Defeat them to gain massive rewards and clear out all of the monsters in that location. Monsters will not appear again in that area for the rest of the day.]

[Note: If there are no monsters in the area you set up a base at, monsters will never spawn inside your base. To set up a base you must have a base card or flag.]

“Ugh Ben, I believe we just found the boss around town.” Yuu said.

Ben laughed weakly. “Ha, you think?”

Yuu looked at the creature as it looked at them. Saliva dripped out of the Orc Lords mouth. It was looking at them as if they were some delicious food.

“You think we can take it down.” Ben asked Yuu as he took another step back.

“Nope. Probably not.” Yuu did not have any faith in their ability.

Although Yuu had the card to evolve [Kid Sasuke] he did not believe an evolution would be able to help them out here. At most [Kid Sasuke] would get an increase of +1 to all his stats.

“Hey! You guys want to help out?” Ben yelled out to some students who were looking at him.

The students pretended they did not hear a word he said and went far away from the Orc Lord. It was better to live in hiding than to fight a monster like that.

Yuu looked at the cards in his hand, none of them would help him out. If he summoned any, they would instantly die. Sure he may be able to kill this thing if he summoned another creature along with [Kid Sasuke] but he’d be out of two summons.

These needed to last him.

Yuu hit his head with his hand. “I’m so stupid!” he said to himself outloud as he grabbed the [Nicolas] card.

He needed to sacrifice a card to summon a four star and above anime character. Yuu believed that this was his solution.

Grabbing the card, he threw it out. A golden circle appeared above [Kid Sasuke] as he was enveloped in a white light. When the light dimmed down, [Nicolas] was in his place.

His dog tags made a clicking sound as he smirked at the Orc Lord.

Both Nicolas and the Orc Lord had the same attack and defense strength. However, a notification appeared when Nicolas was summoned that could change the outcome of their fight.

[When Nicolas fights anyone who has the same strength as him or higher, he overdoses. Overdose increases both his attack and defense by +2.]

Reaching into his pocket [Nicolas] pulled out a handful of pills and shoved them into his mouth. His attack and defense both increased, now they were at +7/+7. It was over for the Orc Lord at this point.

Ben looked at [Nicolas] and was dumbfounded. He did not know what sort of summoning magic Yuu was using but he did like it.

Blasting off [Nicolas] reached the Orc Lord in an instant. Using his sword he clashed with the Orc Lord as it swung down its axe.

Without overdosing [Nicolas] would have died along with the Orc Lord, but he was instead saved.

Sparks flew out as sword and axe hit each other back to back. Seeing that its attacks were going nowhere, the Orc Lord roared in anger.

Being deaf had its perks since [Nicolas] was immune to the roar. He cut the Orc Lord with one swift movement. Blood sprayed out of its wound as it went into a frenzy and swung its axe wildly. [Nicolas] was hit by the axe and flew backwards causing him to take damage.

Color faded from the Orc Lords body as it dropped to the ground with a loud thud.

[Congratulations on defeating the field boss, you’ve gained twenty summon points.]

[Because you were the first to defeat a field boss, you’ve gained a free legendary card pack.]

With the Orc Lord dead, a large silver chest appeared. Both Ben and Yuu walked over to the chest and opened it.
