Jacqueline moved forward on the other side when I started to run with the chair as my special shield, even though it was a pacifist. After a couple of cubicles, I could hear the Dobons screaming for their lives as I stopped momentarily when the cloaked creature was doing some movements with its hands. A couple of Dobons came rushing through the cubicles, and I was going to use my right fist. It was not on fire anymore. I prepared the chair as a weapon and started to smash on the heads of the Dobons to crush them. I noticed how the chair slowly changed to the Dobon's blood colour as I dug through several of them. The space opened up as several Dobons hid behind the walls of the cubicles. They had left the space empty for me to run through, but a blue light ball was in the hands of the creature, and a loud screeching sound came from it. The blue light ball started to float in the air.
"Ah, shit! I got a bad feeling about this!"
"Please, sir! Throw me on the floor and never pick me up again," The radio under the chair uttered.
From nowhere, it moved like an arrow towards me as I bent backwards and fell on the floor, barely missing me.
"Ha ha! You missed!"
I started to run towards the creature as fast as I could. I began to float in the air for a moment before I got shot like an arrow towards the damn cloak creature. It moved aside, and I hit a cubicle. When I heard the sound of something shattering, I was gliding outside on the cubicle with something on the ground filled with red liquid, gliding me away from the window. I looked back and noticed that a big hole opened up on the ground. I tried to stop the cubicle, but it kept sliding even though I wanted to stop it with my hands to no avail. I tried to get off it when the hole became bigger, and I fell right in the hole, seeing an enormous mouth in the hole. I was dangling as it tried chugging, hoping my grip would get loose. I looked at my right hand as if a thin chain had rolled around, and it must have gotten stuck on my hand right before I fell. It caught black fire and started pulling me up from midair as I managed to grab the edge to climb up. I got some red liquid in my mouth and began to puke into the hole as the sharp teeth just chugged it like food was coming. The liquid was blood, I think. It tasted like blood. How do I know that? Ah, the time when I was on a vampire mission and got imprisoned, and they played around with me and fed me blood. It's not a good memory to remember right now. I tried to get the chain up from the ground, but it would not budge from the ground. The black fire on the chain was gone, which did not help me. I released the chain from my hand and tried a couple of hero movements, like making a fist with the peace sign, a normal fist, and an F-word fist, but nothing seemed to work. Maybe I need to throw my fist in the air and scream something.
"IN THE POWER OF THE UZZA BUZZA CUZZA TUZZA CLAN POWER. I DEMAND YOU TO CATCH BLACK FIRE WHEN I THROW UP MY FIST!" I SCREAMED OUT IN THE AIR AND THREW UP MY FIST.
Huh! It didn't work at all. I wonder if this is like the LITRPG crap where I have to dig in the ground or talk to the chair to see how I use my powers. That wouldn't make sense. It would declare war against the LITRPG idiocracy, and the fights would make sense. Imagine putting a box up and telling it to use a potion. That would be luxury on an entirely different level compared to this shit where I can die on every right or left turn. Well, the announcement of LITRPG superhero voices didn't work. Maybe I should grab the chain again. A screeching sound behind me echoed through the air, and I turned around and noticed the cloak bastard running towards me when it suddenly stopped not far from me, and it was preparing a new damn ball to fire. I tried to pull the chain out with all my strength when the hole in front of me suddenly planned out, and a big black flower rose shot up in the air.
"Great, will you both attack me from the front and back? How is that fair?"
The eyes popped out from the rose, and I needed to hurry now. I winded the chain around my hand and hit my fist several times on the ground, with blood splattering in all directions, to try and get it up. I glanced back and noticed the creature building a damn fireball, and in front of me, sharp teeth showed itself right under the eyes on the rose as an attack could come any moment.
"FOR THE GOT DAMN CRAP WEAPON SHIT, GO INTO THE DAMN FIGHTING MODE YOUR DAMN SHIT FIRE!" I screamed and kept hitting the ground when suddenly the chain caught in black fire and got loose from the ground.
I swung it back to try and aim it towards the rose. The chai moved with a flow as the rose attacked with the edge of the chain drilled through the rose and instantly pulled back, winding around my hand as the rose was still before it screamed loud in the air as it exploded with the leaves of the black rose started to shatter everywhere. I turned around to try and face the fireball that was on its way toward me, but the creature was on the ground. I moved quickly to check why it was resting when I noticed the forehead had a hole in it, as something went through its head.
"Oh! Now I get it. Hey Cloaky! How does knowing you would get crushed on distance fighting your coward? Karma is a bitch, isn't it?"
The mouth was just open, and no reaction came from it. Well, it was dead, but I needed to have the talking to in this situation. I could have died...well, I was very close to dying.
I tried coordinating myself and looked around with the wall covering my area. I was outside, but there were just walls all around me. Is this a feeding area for the monster in the hole? I flew out from the window with the blue light ball coming back at full speed, and I slid with a cubicle wall on blood as a hole opened up to swallow me; hm...yeah! It is probably a feeding ground for monsters in holes.
"HEY! ARE YOU ALRIGHT OLD MAN!" I heard Jacqueline's voice behind me.
I turned around, waving my hands towards her. If she could come to the window, they had beaten all the monsters, and we could move on. I noticed the chair on the ground under the window as it managed to get up on four legs and tried to tiptoe away from me as I jogged to it.
"Hey! Shield, where are you trying to escape?
It stopped and didn't move before the radio changed the channel.
"I am a professional office worker. I am not a shield and not a toy. Covered in the blood of monsters, I am stepping on human blood, and I feel like you use me to get the hardest hits on you. My pacifist life is all over. My function is to sit on, and I also have feelings, non-violent feelings. Do you understand me, human? I am hurt!"
I tried to come up with something good but was completely speechless. Did a chair describe its feelings to me?
"It is your lucky day, chair. Our adventure is not a LITRPG, where you sit and do power-up things. We will listen to your feelings, and you will only function as a chair during our adventure. What do you say? You serve as a chair in the Office. Am I not right?" I asked it, trying to trick it into not creating any damn commotions for me at the beginning of this Level.
It was quiet for a moment as if it was thinking or something.
"You promise I will only function as a sitting chair!"
I made a smirk towards the chair and answered.:
"Oh yes! I promise." I kept nodding and smiling with my hands behind my back with the fingers crossed.
"Thank you!" It said when it tiptoed on the wooden legs towards me as I picked it up and started to move towards the window to the girls.
"By the way! What is your name?" I asked it.
The channel on the radio changed, and it answered:
"Ygrassilvantankumpanto Demganitanupmankantuana"
"Eh! Well, that can be a little hard to pronounce every time. What if your name was just Bjorna?"
"Bjorna!" It said.
Well, Bjorn in Swedish means bears. I do not want it to get suspicious of me calling it bear, so if it is Bjorna, it can't blame me later for messing up its name.
"Yeah! Bjorna sounds good, right?"
It was quiet for a couple of seconds before Bjorna answered:
"Yes! It sounds short, but I accept that name and promise to respond."
I kept smiling when we entered through the window; silence had taken over the whole office space. Fierna was sitting on the ground looking tired already while Jacqueline's feet were still in green fire. We can't get through the window because walls surround the space. There was only one door to the left, and I walked to it and saw a sign.
"Danger! Do Not Enter!"
The chain started moving in the other direction and made a hard pull, so I fell to the ground.
Why is the chain reacting like that?
"Do not be surprised, human! The weapon you have as a chain is one of the weakest weapons in Hell. The only function that weapon has is that it consumes the power of its wielder, and you are the weakest one here. That is why the chain tries to run away from the door. You are too weak to handle the enemies behind that door. That is why we need to rest a little before we keep going on the suicide mission through the door so we can get out of the Office behind the wall."
Fierna closed her eyes to keep resting as I realized I was holding them back. Was that what the Demon tried to tell me earlier?
