Sli-Murai! [Solo]

[RubyRose]

    Padding softly down the road that stretched into the Windsor Greatwood from London, Ruby BlackRose, as her in game name stated proudly, clinked a bit due to her armor, keeping her expression more or less level, though she had about ten things running through her mind at once. All she had to do, was go out, kill some slimes, come back, get what she needed in materials, and get a new sword! Simple as could be. At least, so the sixteen year old thought. Sure, dull slimes were the weakest creature around, but they were creatures that she could handle, more or less. First trip out, after all. Continuing down the path, she figured it was still an hour or so before midday, which was good enough for her as she stepped perpendicular to the path, out on a hunt. A hunt, for slimes! As the samurai walked, she took a pause just long enough to look at herself and where she was. Both of her starter katanas were on her right hip, and she idly shifted a bit of her plate armor, feeling a tad itchy. Looking around, Ruby couldn't see any slimes, making her sigh and keep moving, simply a walk in the park, so to speak.

At least, it was a beautiful day, and the view was somehow quite impressive, if a bit... ordinary. That last word, however, slightly frightened her. If there wasn't anything around... what could be? Then again, looking back, she simply dropped her face into her palm. She had somehow made a compelte circle in her distracted walk, and ended up back near the path once more. "Right..." She mutters, turning around ,and setting something in r sights. That was, to go towards a rock. And then follow that rock to the next, hoping that there might just be a whole line of breadcrumb-rocks, like it was some twisted version of hansel and gretel in that the titular characters, were the predators, and the witch- ergo, the slimes- the prey. The thought made her smile, and as she padded down towards the rock, she idly licked her lips. "Next stop... slime."

    Ruby continues her walk, making note of each large rock she passes as she continues looking for slimes, eventually coming to a stop. "Oh come on... not a single slime?" she sighs, before a dull green glint shows off a slight ways in front of her. "Yes..." She grins, making a dash for the slime, which turned to go for her in turn. It seemed to be alone for now, but that didn't mean a thing. Still, grinning, Ruby would draw at the last possible moment, moving directly into a strike with one of her blades, activating her ace-move: Iaido. Annoyingly, the slime didn't take the hit directly, meaning it was still able to move, coming after her with a vengeance, until the second sword came up, ending the slime with a basic attack. "Phew..." Ruby mumbled, looking around, sighing as she found she was totally alone. Nadda. Taking a slight rest, out of habit cleaning her blades, she sheathed the pair, stretching a bit so she wouldn't cramp up on the walk to the next location. finding her line once more, she walked, this time towards a bush instead of a rock, wanting to get some more slimes killed. Soloing didn't seem too hard right now, at least, not to her. Ruby then would put a sword on her left side as will, frowning since she hadn't thought of that earlier, having almost hurt herself to draw right. 

    As she walks, Ruby's mind wanders slightly, to her plan of slime-farming. Slimes meant money, money meant mats, mats meant research, and research meant more gear! it was a perfect idea... At least on paper, and as she walked, she was clearing a path for her minimap, which came in handy for when she started doing courier runs. At least, that was the thought. Taking another perpendicular, she'd keep walking, fingers flexing as she moved. The plan was working so far, but... there just didn't seem to be enough slimes around to do it anytime soon. Perhaps she should be hunting something else instead... Shaking her head, ruby continued to walk, determined to do this and do it correctly.
