"I think it is best if you come out first though. I don't think it appropriatenemy.e that you stay behind the shadows even after you have surrendered." Myriad Arrows called out first.
"As you wish, kind travelers. After the grace that you have shown us, it is only right for me to show myself." The voice said.
As it said this, from deep within the cave, Myriad Arrows and Kierch could see a shadow. It was gigantic, and slowly, creeping in.
Just looking at the shadow, both of them unconsciously took out their weapons, ready to face the monster that was coming out.
"Do not fret, travelers. I am no enemy. After I have given up, to fight you will only be a death sentence for my brethren." the voice said.
This time, they could see the monster who was speaking.
Truly, she was bigger than everyone else in the cave. She was almost double the height of a normal human, and the monster was utterly stunning.
It was a little interesting, seeing a stunning monster. She was supposed to be the enemy, but both the players here couldn't help but be lost in the perfect curves and the stunning face that the monster presented.
She had all but a rag covering her top, and a necklace that shone with a purple hint around her neck.
The moment he saw that purple necklace, Kierch's mouth watered.
"Can you see it, Myriad Arrows. That is an epic item." Kierch said.
"We promised to stay our hands. It is better to get some information out of this monster before we do anything. And we even confirmed that we were going to let them surrender. If we attack her, we might lose karma." Myriad Arrows pointed out.
"Yeah, karma is way too important. After what Shadow King did, and the benefits that he gets, I really want to be a noble as well." Kierch nodded as he took a step back.
"Alright. So you must be the Siren Queen." Myriad Arrows said.
"I am surprised that people from the main land would actually know who I was. I thought that information about the sirens had disappeared a long time ago, along with everything related to the monsters in these here lands." The siren queen said.
"Indeed. It did. That is why you are all the more important." Myriad Arrows nodded.
"You see, we have been facing a lot of interesting monsters in the way here. Some of them just refuse to die. Even after we certainly killed them. And all of them look way too weird." he said.
"Can you tell me why you are almost immortal, like we are? How do you get a second chance at life?"
"These are rich remarks coming from someone who has defied the very heavens by existing. But our existence is not something we can explain. Only His Majesty knows why we exist." The siren queen shook her head.
"Wait. His Majesty? You lot have a King? A leader for all of the monsters here?" Kierch suddenly stopped her and asked.
"Indeed. How else would we have a united opposition to you, enemies who come here to destroy us?" The siren queen said.
"Wait. This king, what else can you tell us about him? What kind of powers does he have? Does he have any abilities that we should be worried about?" Myriad Arrows asked.
"I am sorry, travelers. This is not information that I can divulge. The moment I tell you anything about him, me and my tribe will have to make the ultimate sacrifice." The siren queen shook her head, and a few glistening tears fell across her cheeks.
"Shut it with the whole waterworks. You die here without telling us, or you probably die later, to some monster who isn't even here. Don't forget. We might actually defeat him." Kierch said.
"You do not understand, do you? All of you, you are just here because His Majesty doesn't wish to spend any of his resources on someone so weak. The moment he actually wishes it, all of you will not be able to take a step further." The siren queen chuckled.
"Perhaps a few years later, you will be able to mount a resistance. And by then, my tribe will be doomed for telling you things that we were never supposed to. I would rather take my chances with you. At least some of my tribe will escape." The siren queen said.
"Fine then. Atleast, I will get an epic item out of this," Kierch said, his twin swords appearing in either hand, as he stepped forward toward the Siren Queen.
"Kierch! Wait. Not yet." Myriad Arrows shook his head.
"Does your surrender mean that you can never lay a hand on us or our allies?" Myriad Arrows asked.
"That is the case. With this, our tribe is now protection less in these lands. We have already doomed ourselves the moment you entered our vicinity." The siren queen sighed.
"All of this. It doesn't make sense. Why would you sacrifice so many of your people for so reason? And you weren't even able to touch us, so you would not have been able to take out even one of our players." Myriad Arrows froze for a few moments.
He was trying to think about what was happening. Something about the situation here felt off. He knew it. This Siren Queen was hiding something from them, obviously.
And that something wasn't related to the king. It had to be about something else.
Ping!
Right at that moment, he heard a sound. A sound he wasn't supposed to hear.
A message from the inbox.
"We can get messages again?" Kierch said, surprised, as he opened his inbox.
As did Myriad Arrows.
The moment they did, their expressions changed.
"Looks like we really should have come here sooner. To think such a big problem arose while we weren't there." Myriad Arrows sighed.
"As for you, the whole lot of you has to die now. Just for lying to us."
