The Grand Duelist

Chapter 11: Nina, Rika

"Hey..."

A familiar voice rang out and Joseph found two female players staring at him with a smile.

"What do you need?" Joseph asked in a distant voice. Those close with corrupted people would eventually be corrupted themselves. Joseph didn't want to judge, but it was better to be careful.

"Ah, nothing. I mean, judging from where you are going. You're planning on going to the Wolf's Den, right?" Nina looked quite embarrassed.

"Yeah, but I am not planning on challenging the dungeon." Joseph nodded his head.

"Then what are you going to do?" Nina asked.

"Of course, I'm going to gather some information. Why would I challenge it alone?" Joseph raised an eyebrow while Nina replied in a strange voice.

"In that case, then wouldn't be much better to consult someone that knows more about it, or the Forums?"

"Wait, the Forums?"

"Yeah..."

"Holy shit, how did I forget about that!" Joseph facepalmed before he hurriedly opened his Main Menu and navigated to the Forums of Victory. However, before he could continue his search for information. Nina lightly chuckled and said.

"I think that you'd be better off asking me about what you need to know."

"You?" Joseph stopped fiddling with the forums.

"Yes, I have entered the Wolf's Den for so many times already that I remember every nook and cranny of it."

"But why don't you remember what happened to your party earlier?"

"Ah... I really don't know..." She shook her head.

It wasn't good to push her into remembering something that she couldn't remember. Because of that, Joseph smiled and gestured to a nearby bench.

"How about we sit down and talk for now?"

"Thanks..."

The two then continued their conversation.

"The Wolf's Den looks peaceful outside, but as soon as you step inside then it's a different story. That place is incredibly dangerous for new players since those wolves have the ability to pounce at you..."

"Separating yourself from an enemy stuck on your body is something that newbies don't have the capabilities on doing yet."

"Indeed, new players are prone to panic since this is really a realistic world." Joseph nodded his head in understanding.

He figured that even he, that had some experience in fighting would panic when dealing with enemies stuck on his body.

"Yeah, halfway inside the Den. The wolves are relatively weak apart from that pouncing ability. But that is an illusion that would surely bite you in the ass if you don't..." Nina realized her crude wording and she couldn't help but cover her mouth in embarrassment.

Joseph lightly chuckled and said: "It's okay, I don't mind... Please continue, you've been very helpful." Joseph glanced at Nina's comrade, the young woman who warned him back at the first Beginner Village.

"You've been helpful too." He said and the young woman flinched for a moment before asking him in a soft voice.

"Me?"

"Yes, you..." Joseph wore a light smile and the young woman hid her face behind Nina.

"Hahaha, don't be like that in front of our client, Rika..."

Joseph heard the word, "client" and couldn't help but ask: "What client? Who's the client?"

"You." Nina pointed at Joseph.

"Me?" Joseph pointed at himself.

"Of course, you... What do you mean? You aren't going to pay me for giving you this much info?" Nina's expression darkened while Joseph looked blank as a pristine sheet of paper.

But after a short moment, he suddenly slammed his head on the bench.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"That guy's crazy..."

"Holy shit, why is he banging his head like that? Could it be that he got rejected by that pretty onee-san?"

"Poor bastard."

"F."

Joseph's gesture of banging his head on the bench garnered the attention of the passing players. Nina hurriedly stopped him before saying: "What the hell are you doing?!"

"I am erasing my memories..." Joseph said in a bitter voice.

"Erasing your memories?" Nina asked in confusion.

"Yes, erasing my memories. I don't have the money to pay you for that information so I am going to erase it from my head, please don't stop me..." Joseph continued banging his head on the bench and Nina held his shoulders back before saying.

"Okay, okay, okay. I get it! Let's just put it on credit!"

When all of these were over, Joseph now had his hand on his head in pain.

"You should've told me sooner that there's a credit option."

"Well, you just started banging your head as soon as I finished what I was saying..."

"Hehehe..."

The young woman who kept her silence, giggled when she heard the conversation of the two. Joseph glanced at her and smiled, but she once again hid her face behind Nina.

"She's really shy... I am sorry about that... I mean... Who wouldn't be shy before the man that saw you crying like a baby...?" Nina teased the young woman and the young woman retaliated with a fierce bite at her back.

"Ah!" Nina screamed like a barbarian and she took her revenge by tickling the young woman who instantly laughed out loud. The scene of two young women at their prime, tickling and biting each other created a phenomenal scene that quickly garnered the attention of everyone.

"Holy shit, that's kinda erotic..."

"What the hell, get a room you two..."

"Hmmm, Lameh keyoh..."

The laughter of the two sounded like cheerful bells, but it was unfortunately interrupted by Joseph who bitterly smiled before sneakily escaping from the two.

"Where are you going?" Nina reacted and grabbed him by the collar.

"Ughh... Nah, I am just gonna ask an NPC about, you know...?" Joseph felt a shiver down his spine when he heard Nina's words.

"Ask an NPC? Why would you do that when you have me." Nina raised an eyebrow and Joseph sighed in response.

"That's quite a bold statement to say to a man that you just met."

Nina instantly blushed and she sent a fist towards Joseph that Joseph hurriedly caught with his hand before he replied with a dark smile, "Miss, I am an advocate of equality..."

"Ooooh? Do you think you're tough enough to try me? Are you even qualified?" Nina's interest was piqued with the sudden challenge and the two stood up and faced each other.

"Well, you're about to know if I am qualified or not!" Joseph lunged forwards and what happened afterward was...

Omitted.

[Party, "Play with the Doggos" has been created.]

[You are the party leader.]

[Player, "Nina" has joined the party.]

[Player, "Rika" has joined the party.]

Joseph glanced at the party menu.

[Name: Nina

Class: Hunter

Title: ???

Level: ???]

[Name: Rika

Class: Magician

Title: ???

Level ???]

"Why is it that I cannot see your levels?" Joseph asked the two young women and Nina replied.

"Why would you ask something like that? Always remember that levels are a woman's secret!"

"A woman's secret is their age!" Joseph interrupted in frustration.

"Wait, how do you know that?" Nina said in an ambiguous manner before continuing: "Could it be that in the morning you're Joseph, but at night... You... are... Josephine?" Nina teased and Joseph's figure froze. He slowly turned his head behind and glared right into her eyes.

"I am asking seriously!"

"Okay, okay..." Nina lightly chuckled, while Rika had a smile on her face. Her eyes radiated the light of amusement as she observed the banter of the two as a neutral party.

"Now that I think about it, are the two of you sisters?" Joseph asked Nina.

"Oh? You just noticed it? Yeah, we're sisters." Nina replied with a smile.

"In that case, Rika's the older sister." Joseph smiled at Nina.

"Why do you say so?"

"Well, she feels more mature than her other counterpart..." Joseph teased, and before Nina's fist could land on his back. He jumped forwards and evaded it as he laughed.

"Hahaha..." Rika responded with a laugh towards their interaction. Nina turned to look at her and said: "You're siding with this guy? You're just going to forget the years that we spent together as sisters just because of this guy?"

Rika looked startled for a moment before she turned her gaze away. Joseph chuckled at the sight of this and teased once more: "You're being too dramatic, Nina..."

Nina looked at Joseph in anger when she heard what he said. But when she saw the sly smile on Joseph's face, she felt that something was wrong as Joseph continued his sentence: "That's why I said that you're sister's more mature than you... Kek, you'll find it hard marrying if you keep that up...

"You're already dead!" Nina cried in anger before chasing Joseph's figure who kept on laughing out loud.

Fortunately, Nina's suffering ended early for they had already arrived at the Wolf's Den after a few minutes. The entrance of the Wolf's Den looked like an entrance of an ordinary cave.

If not for the fact that the system gave him a notification about the identity of the cave, then Joseph wouldn't find it out of the ordinary.

[You are approaching the vicinity of the Wolf's Den.]

"Okay, I'll be observing the area now. The two of you should keep your silence now, okay?" Joseph swept his gaze at the two before staring at Nina: "I'll be testing the information that you gave me, Nina. That information should be accurate since it's based on your experience, but with what happened to you back when you last entered this cave..."

"I am pretty sure that some information that you gave me would be inaccurate by now... I'll do some checks though so I can be sure about it."

Nina nodded her head and Joseph turned around and commenced with his objectives. However, the moment he approached the Wolf's Den. A system notification suddenly appeared before him.

[The energy of darkness binds you up and your comrades.]

[You are forcefully sucked into the Dark Wolf's Den.]

"Ah!" Nina screamed as she found out that slimy tentacles of darkness enveloped her and her sister's body. Joseph turned around and he was astonished about what he saw.

Yes, what he saw was quite an erotic scene... Sadly, Joseph himself couldn't help nor enjoy it since he was also immobilized by the tentacles.

"I've watched enough... omitted. To know about what's going to happen!" Joseph exclaimed as he tried his best on struggling.

The three of them struggled to break free, but a system notification told them that it was impossible.

[You cannot resist.]

[You have entered the Dark Wolf's Den.]

[Darkness surrounds the area. Your vision is limited and the light emanated by skills is suppressed. You cannot see more than five meters around you.]

"What in the hell did I enter?" Joseph mumbled in shock upon seeing the series of system notifications.
