The Online Craftsmaster

John still had to collect himself from being stuck in the wall several times. He was kneeling in front Eva, Erika and Claire and apologized. Claire was the first one to give in and forgive him, shortly after Erika also accepted his apology only Eva kept on giving him a death glare. But soon Eva sighed and  asked him to show her his new dungeon floor, he obliged and the whole group of friends followed him to the lowest floor.

At first Claire and Erika let out an surprised gasp when they saw how the light of an artificial sun shined through the tree crowns illuminating only part of this lush forest that was filled with trees that looked like they were here since the beginning of time. Especially the Giant tree that could be seen sitting in the middle of the forest gave an astonishing sight.

Even Eva liked the appearance and atmosphere of this dungeon floor even though she would never show it. The group of friend walked into the forest and followed a narrow path through the trees, even when they wanted to leave the trail they couldn't as the Trees and vegetation were too abundant to even see farther than three meters into the forest outside of the trail.

Suddenly when they were already walking for some time a tree next to the trail started bowing down showing loyalty to his creator. The group of friends except John were startled by the sudden movement of a tree but John explained them that they were his creations Artificial treants. Eva creased her eyebrow but didn't say anything because she got slightly used to John´s shenanigans and his "special" creations.

Soon the group of friends saw more and more treants bowing down to their master, some even stood up and walked to them to greet them more appropriately. Eva did try to calm down but she still felt one of her brows flinching while her hand started to cramp up because it wanted to form a fist.

John saw her shaking hand and knew what she thought and sighed internally happy that there was no wall nearby to get stuck in. But still he quickly got them to continue walking and soon they reached the Aztec temple he placed in the middle of the forest, in front of it throned a giant tree and Dryas the Dryad was dancing and Singing while she gracefully jumped from branch to branch only to land on the ground stroking the bark of the big tree.

At first the female part of the group started to get angry again clenching their fist but when they really observed Dryas in her intended role they couldn't help but calm down and accept that she really fit into this floor and that it would feel incomplete to them if she was removed even though Eva still had to punch John for creating something ridiculous again. Eva calmed down deciding that she punished John enough already when suddenly the giant tree moved and bowed down to express its loyalty too. Suddenly a loud bang echoed through the forest as Eva's first floated a meter above the ground while John, that was celebrating inside that his head wouldn't be stuck in a wall on this dungeon floor, was now trying to pull out his head out of the ground while every treant in the vicinity stood up straight and pretended to be a tree.

Eva sighed and pulled John out of the ground by his collar and said: "I should have done this already but maybe experiencing your own dungeon helps you understand what you do to other players."

So it was decide that the group of friend would raid John´s dungeon, everyone got their gear except Olaf who said that didn't want to fight that much he would rather only play the game to craft to his heart's content, the fight against the colossus was just an exception.

So Erika, Eva , John, Claire and Vito got their gear and started on floor one, they knew what was coming and everyone except John read the guide on how to beat the floor, so after half an hour the smithing bot was beaten and the first floor of Johnßs dungeon was cleared.

They went onto the second floor and at first it was easier as John knew every trap and could discern every Wall-ton as he created them. But soon they reached a tricky part, the boss of the second floor. Even though Eva could just run up to it and destroy it as her body was completely out metal she wanted John to come up with a solution. Eva was chuckling inside as waited for John to be destroyed by his own creation, but John seemed to have an idea. He left his friends behind and walked back the way they came. After a short while they heard the creaking of metal and battle sounds out of the Corridor John went into but they couldn't be heard for long it suddenly became silent before they could hear the sound of metal scraping against stone.

John came back shoving a destroyed Wall-ton in front of him walking in leisurely pace past his friends and in the direction of the boss. His friends looked at him like he was a unicorn wearing high heels playing on an accordion as he was advancing with the wall-ton in hand. When John reached half of the distance he suddenly grabbed the Wall-ton tighter spun it around his body and threw it after the boss and destroyed it with one hit.

John looked behind as his friends didn't catch up to him only to see that that everyone except Eva stared at him with disbelieve. Eva was just standing there one hand on her forehead and shaking her head thinking about that she forgot that John was one of the few people in the game that already achieved an unbelievable amount of strength that is probably in the top three of the server.

They continued onwards clearing the third floor without problems as John knew all peculiars about his creations, they also cleared the fourth floor easily as John knew that the small monkey like robot was in fact the boss of this floor so the killed it early while Eva cursed at herself for thinking that John would get a reality check from trying his own dungeon yet they ran through it in a breeze...

...Ullr was prepared to try the next floor he still didn't know why the boss of the fourth floor didnt come but he decided to ignore it as it allowed him to get the fifth floor. But before Ullr started going to the dungeon he looked at the picture he took of the mosaic of the next floor, but to his surprised it was somehow pixelated and unreadable. He tried everything, zooming in, zooming out but nothing help until he realized that is was because he had the censoring filter on.

Ullr was slightly surprised as he just couldn't imagine why something like this mosaic would be censored until he turned it of and looked at it. He couldn't believe his eyes as he saw strange flying creatures attacking people holding a lantern while their hand was bleeding. But the most disturbing thing was that some of those depicted people were holding different body parts in agony as strange dark lines were drawn on their body. But Ullr quickly realized that those "lines" where in reality some kind of worms or larvae that ate the flesh of their victims while they were still alive.

Ullr couldn't help but shudder a bit when he thought about what kind of sensation it would when a worm was eating itself through your body in a visible pace that lets you see it crawling under your skin. A terrible way to die Ullr thought so he decide to take some precautionary measures and bought several poison capsule he could eat to escape this cruel fate.

When he was ready he walked to the dungeon to try his luck...

...John and his friend reached the entrance to the fifth floor but he stopped in his tracks and turned around and said: "Maybe it would be better if we just go to the sixth floor without beating the fifth one as it is not suitable for the female members of our group..."

Eva who didn't know what kind of monsters he put on this floor was slightly happy as she thought that there was finally a floor that could be a problem for John so she nearly wanted to say that they would continue with this floor but fortunately for her she saw the mosaic first and discovered what was waiting for them. She quickly changed her mind and wanted to say that it was a good idea to go straight to the sixth floor when suddenly a manly voice angrily sounded behind them...

"Why do you have that Armband?" A male Voice roared behind them...
