They walked into the castle it opened up into a small corridor with red carpeting and with an almost dark atmosphere dripping from the walls. They felt a stifling aura as soon as they entered the keep Rob and his father weren't affected by it. While Jenny and Edgar were moving significantly slower, then there was Rain who were having a hard time even moving.

"What's wrong with you Rain?" Rob asked concerned.

"The aura is limiting me badly. I can barely move I'm just in the second stage...." Edgar said exhausted as if the pressure made hard for him to even breathe.

"Stay next to my father he will take care of you for the time being. Edgar you can stay next to Jenny seeing as you aren't having too many problems moving. Alright let's move out." Raph led in the front followed by his father and Rain. Finally, in the back were Jenny and Edgar.

Edgar listened to Rob knowing that he was much stronger than him at least in the fifth stage he was only fifteen and had followed many stronger cultivators. The worst thing one could do was go against someone giving orders in a life or death situation they just had to watch each other's backs.

As they walked down the corridor, they heard the clacking of bones further down the hall. He pulled the flashlight up to see two skeletons with heavy armor and maces in one of their hands. They had noticed that they were there running towards them swinging at Rob.

<Guardian Skeleton>

Elite: 100% HP

Rob ran forward having the attack land behind him, pulling out his tonfas he landed two strong punches on the skeleton before it had time to react. Then jumped onto the other skeleton using <Tornado Kick> before he had a chance to run him. SLAM!!! The skeleton hit the wall taking heavy damage a mace soon hit Rob from the back of the head.

<You have taken 10% damage and are stunned for 1 second>

Just as another attack was about to land <Stone of Spark> landed on the ground stunning both skeletons for a second giving Rob time to breath. Rain began to sing a quick paced song which seemed a little bit hard for him to finish....

<Rain used strike chant gain 5% attack speed for 5 seconds this effect had been cut in half due to an unknown aura>

"A bard!!" All three family members exclaimed. They knew bards were rare in games because they were mostly buffing characters with very little offensive powers. This made them rare because most gamers liked to get to see high damage numbers to show off or say hey look at me, I can do or something along those lines. The bard was first introduced in an old MMO something eleven and was by far one of the less played classes in that game. Even though this class played by very few people everyone wanted one on their team. The sheer power they added to the party was insane helping the efficiency of the group by leaps and bounds.


There have been some VRMMO since then that had tried to do the same thing and for the most part, they played the same role. Whenever a bard appears the efficiency of the party would sky rocket but the problem was, they were so rare as most people don't like to buff and debuff enemies the whole time. Eventually the class was taken out of most games as it wasn't very popular for other classes that did some damage or healing with some buffs to keep the person who played them happy.

This is why a bard came a such a surprise to them, it was the Legendary lost class. If it was anything like the previous bard classes he would be very sought after by many of the top guilds.

"Yes, I am a bard is there something wrong with that." They immediately shook their heads no it was very important to lure this guy into their guild. Edgar soon join Rob on the front lines slashing one of the skeletons with his saber. It took a little bit of time until they killed the two Elite skeletons seeing as only Rob and his father were of the fifth stage. From the looks of its Edgar and Lily were Jenny were both only at the third stage.

They continued forward bumping into only two guardian skeletons at a time this actually was much easier than the siege on the keep they had done. It most likely was an instance for people around the third stage just like the wolf's den. To Rob this was very easy for him to clear and with the help of some of the buffs the bard gave they soon cleaned out twenty groups of the Elite skeletons. Each of the skeletons dropped <Medium Grade Guardian Skeleton Cores>. Rob didn't take as he had plenty of low to medium grade orbs.

As they continued on the came across an empty courtyard a couple of ferns with moss growing around stairs leading to up to the walls. The group carefully examined the area looking for anything out of the ordinary. Not much seemed out of place, it was strange they hadn't found any traces of Edgar's friends. Not even so much as a shout for help something was off. Rob inspected Edgar his face looked grim, much more than when the first time they had met. He was probably losing hope in finding his friends.

Rob began to walk up the stairs ready to take attacks but nothing happened even now the keep without life. The eerily quiet lingered in the air as he looked out into the deep dark nothingness.

"HEY I FOUND SOMETHING!!!" His sister screamed. Cutting right through the silence making him jump into the air almost falling from the keep. Sweat dripped from his face as he retained a hold on some stones near him. You can't her she's your sister he told himself then got composed and walked down the stairs. Rob reached them as they all stared at three bodies underneath a skull.

Rob looked at his father whom had already inspected them, "I can't find a pulse." then put his arm over Edgar shoulder....
