57.14% reborn in the abyss! / Chapter 4: The second layer part 1

Bab 4: The second layer part 1

(Riko's POV second layer, Forrest of temptation)

*Bang!*

Looking at the stinger I just shot a bright flash of light followed by fluttering sounds of pupa-carriers coming towards the light source. About thirty pupa-carriers came to the light source like their earth counterparts. I quickly ran up the hill as quietly as possible while gathering the medical herbs we would need later, even as I did this I made sure to keep the blue dot on my mini map that represented rig firmly in my mind's eye.

After making my way back down I remembered the notifications I got the moment we stepped into the second layer

[abyss chain quest part 2 {the next layer~} make it to the second layer of the abyss! (Complete)

Quest reward {unlock mini map function friendly locations!}]

[abyss chain quest part 3 {the worst layer} make it to the third layer of the abyss

[Quest rewards { enemy location mini map function & crafting tab unlocked}]

As I walked down another hill with even more pupa-carriers traveling to the bright light behind me I see Rig looking at me in thought. Seeing this I knew something was bothering him.

"Rig whats up? Something bothering you?"

"Uhh… Yeah… Who were those dead people you dropped out of your inventory?" Rig asked me.

"Oh them… Just some predators who chose the wrong child to follow in a dark alley. Don't tell me you feel bad for them?"

"If they were trying to attack you I say good riddance but all 68 of them?" said Rig.

"Yep every single one. You don't hear much about it near where we stay at but near the slums and places crime rate is high. Children my age disappear all the time. That was case but it turns out these guys were in a group that enjoys the rape, torture, and selling of children. I would go and kill them all but they are like roaches. Kill one you'll see two more around the corner. Cause of this however I never ran out of guinea pi-"

I couldn't finish speaking before I was suddenly picked. The sensation of suddenly being picked up isn't good whatsoever. I think I might lose my lunch… Looking up towards what picked me I am shocked to see a corpse-weeper. Fuck… I need to get of its clutches before it kills me at its nest.

I pulled out my gun and set it to electric rounds. I'm shaking around so my aim is horrid but since i'm so close a point blank round or a mere graze will take it down.

*Bang*

*SCREECH!!!*

It lets me go but I turned around and shot the grappling hook in it. The corpse-weeper tried to resist the pull but it got pulled towards me falling. As soon as it got close enough I sent my grappling hook to the inventory and hopped on top of the damn demonic bird thing. I need something to cushion the fall and this creature "volunteeringly" provided itself as such a cushion.

*CRASH!!*

Jumping off last second I balled myself up and rolled to prevent as much damage from the fall as possible but it still hurt alot. Checking myself nothing is broken. The dust settles and I see something that is the last thing I want to see on this layer. A damn corpse-weeper nest!

(Editor: ZAAAA WOOOORLD DOOOOO)

Time suddenly freezes all around me but how can I still perceive everything around me.

[<YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO LIVE THIS LONG…>]

A voice? In my head? I know that voice… You bastard why contact me now. Knowing I am in a bad situation you saw fit to belittle me huh? You pitiful spiteful bastard you got nothing better to do huh?

[<HAHAHA FOOLISH MORTAL YOU DARE STILL SPEAK TO ME THAT WAY IN YOUR CURRENT SITUATION? YOU MUST OF GONE MAD FROM SHOCK. I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE WATCHING YOU ALL THE TIME SO I EXPECTED TO SEE YOU AS SOME THUGS PLAYTHING OR MANURE FOR THE PLANTS>]

Hahaha I thought you were omnipotent.

[<WATCH YOUR TONGUE MORTAL!>]

If you can't even watch me twenty four seven that means your power has limits. You can not fully fuck with me the way you truly want. If you can, it must definitely come at a cost.

[<YOU KNOW NOTHING OF HIGHER BEINGS>]

Why would I know nothing of a higher Bitch like you. You underestimate human ingenuity. We can come up with some good conclusions with very little evidence. Plus you "cursed" me with perfect memory meaning I can recall many things about beings like you. You may be a God but you have your limits. If you could, you would have made things worse for me the first chance you got. You can't directly do things like on earth can you.

[<...>]

The silence you have there is loud you know. You can only indirectly affect this world not directly so that means Slaanesh's prismatic fleshlight is keeping you out or some other God is just doing what you ask but not letting do whatever you want with me.

[<YOU… YOU… YOU!!!!!>]

Me me me me Meeeeeeeeee!!!! Cmon smite me like on earth. You already killed me once whats a second time to you oh great one. Oh wait you can't hahahahaha.

[<HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE!? I MADE YOU! YOU WILL OBEY MY COMMANDS!>]

Having software issues, maybe you could call your tech support. I bet one of those scammers from India probably answers cause it seems like you're too inepted to control your shit.

[<I'M GONNA ERASE YOU!! NO, TORTURE YOUR SOUL FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY. I WILL NOT REST TILL EVERYTHING YOU EVEN CARED A LITTLE FOR IS BRUTALLY KILLED. I WILL MAKE IT MY PERSONAL MISSION TO MAKE SURE YOU DIE THE MOST PAINFUL DEATH POSSIBLE JUST TO BRING YOU BACK TO LIFE TO HAVE YOU EXPERIENCE IT AGAIN!! DEATH SHALL NOT BE YOUR RELEASE!!! IT WILL BE YOUR ETERNAL DAMNATION!!! YOUR EVEN WORSE THAN THAT ONE WITH NO FAITH!!!>]

Sure, sure, but who is that one with no faith?

[<I DO NOT ANSWER TO MERE ANT LIKE YOU>]

Your having too much trouble killing off this "mere ant".

[<GRRRRR>]

Time suddenly resumes and I know what I must do. Bring out a special toy from my inventory. A Leonidus series flamethrower or what I personally named it The Little Ghost Pepper. This baby spews out enhanced napalm like nobodies business. The corpse-weepers twitched at my sudden appearance since the dust has settled they can see the invader slash food in their nest but before they can react I pulled the trigger unleashing a sea of liquid fire. The baby corpse-weepers didn't even get the chance to cry before turning into burnt demonic chicken. Some of the adults although tried to get to me and got a face full of my enhanced olympian fire before they could reach me. This stuff is gonna burn till next month if it runs out of stuff to burn however I say next week.

This thing is getting heavier as time goes on but its the only material I could find to not melt by the sheer heat. I have a heat shield but even with it it feels like I'm burning up. Even though what's left of the "alive" corpse-weepers that would come after if given the chance but the fire stopped them. They could only look at me with hate and reluctance before leaving their already burnt home or face extinction. Even though I know there are more nests out there.

Fuck its hot. I got to get out of here but where? There is fire all around me and the heat shield could protect me from direct fire but this isn't normal fire. It latches on and burns anything that could be used as fuel. Hell even water can't put it no matter how much is thrown at it unless its a tsunami.

I spot a small opening by the treeline but what if there is a corps-weeper waiting for me. No, I gotta take that chance. I wasn't taken too far away from Rig so he must be close by right now.

(Rig's pov)

Craaaap I gotta find Riko. A damn demonic looking bird, orphan muncher, or whatever they are called grabbed her and brought her to its nest. I know Riko would never go down without a fight so I think I can make it in time to save her.

As I went further into the direction Riko was taken too I noticed a lot of creatures running in the opposite direction. It's also starting to get hotter. What the hell is going on up ahead? After seemed like 5 minutes I reached a clearing and saw nothing but fire and burnt monster corpses. In the middle of the violent blaze I see a small figure covered in some sheet-like cover holding what appeared to be a flamethrower. That must be Riko.

"Riko!"

Yelled but she didn't turn my way. Pulling in all the air I could take I shouted her name again.

"RIKO!!"

She turned my way then took a step forward. Took a step but stops. I look and finally noticed this fire is different from a normal one. Holy shit she's using one of her war crimes. She can't run through without it latching on to her and burn her. I got to be quick about this. I got to grab her and reel her in without her touching the base of the flame. I'm immune to the fire but she's not. Still hot as hell no less even though I'm immune. Riko tested her fire on my arm by accident she claims. My arm was glowing for a few minutes afterwards since I came in contact with the base of napalm.

"Store your stuff I'm gonna grab you!" I yelled to her.

"Okay!" she yells back at me.

I see her snap her fingers and everything except the sheet covering her disappears off her. Reading myself I shot my arms out at max strength at Riko to grab her. All I feel is what i describe as hell. Its so damn hot. Wait its hotter than what I remember. What are you trying to burn!? The world?!

My arms made it to Riko. She quickly wrapped them around herself and I locked my hands together. She nodded at me and I immediately knew what to do next. With all my strength I swung her up into the air to keep her from the base of the fire. Noticing at her current rate she'll hit the base of the fire i swung her to the side making her clear the deadly flames. New problem: she's heading head first to a tree.

I let her go in hopes she can stop herself. She expertly corrects herself midair and rolls on the grounds and skids across the ground in a superhero landing style. Ok that was cool. She takes off the sheet and the look of pure joy is radiating off her face. I had never seen so much happiness on her face before. I know that face its the face of triumph over a adversary along with the pure joy of accomplishing it.

"Rig, You're not gonna believe what happened!" she yells out at me.

She starts running at me but strangely i'm also running at her as well. As we got close to each other I suddenly tripped over something and landed right on top of Riko knocking her down as well.

We tumbled for a bit before I found myself laying on the ground face down trying to comprehend what I was looking at, after a few seconds my face turned bright red, I had landed on her crotch.

(Editor: Deus Vault!!! Whats a fanfic without cliches)

Why am I embarrassed when I looked at Riko her happy expression faded into a scowl. Her eyes boring holes into mine. Her gaze slowly went into the sky followed by a middle finger.

"Whatever divine being caused this to happen FUCK YOU!" she shouted up to the sky. After 30 minutes of trying to calm Riko down she finally stopped with her very creative vocabulary that I thought was only reserved for this hell hole and the director. With no other interruptions we made it to the upside down forrest. Woah the wind is strong here and I definitely can't use my arms to grapple across. Riko's grappling hook, although possibly hit by its making, can't support both our weights in this wind. We started hopping across to the nearest tree but I felt something watching us multiple somethings. I turn my head upwards behind us and saw far too many monkey like creatures for my liking just watching us from afar.

"Riko…"

"I know…" she says as quiet as possible.

Riko pulls out both her pistols and looks at the monkey creatures.

"There are way more than I remember. Rig don't make any sudden movements till the wind stops. Once the wind stops we'll have twenty seconds to cover as much distance as possible"

The intense wind kept blowing but as soon as it stops hell gonna break loose and that fall down there doesn't look comforting whatsoever. How am I not nauseated just looking down I will never know.

"You yeady?" Riko asked.

"Yeah…"

"3" Ok lets do this.

"2" I think I might of been scared of heights back on earth.

"1" No backing out even if wanted to.

"Now!" yelled Rig as we both gave a warrior's cry that surprised the monkey like creatures but the surprises only lasted a second as their roar verbirated in the upside down forest. Time to run for dear life.

(Ozen pov)

Here I was just enjoying the same view of this "boring" place when something in the distance caught my eye. A boy and girl traveling beside each other. Oh my what a sizeable pack of inbyo behind them. I never seen so many in place before out of all my years here. Something must of attracted them cause I would say about one sixth of the total population is watching them right now.

This would make them a undeniable force to recon with but those creature already learned their lesson the first time trying to make me vacate the premises. The boy and girl seemed to noticed them but didn't make any sudden movements. Huh… Smart for little kids… Are they waiting for something? Ahh the wind… How interesting… Lets see how this play out. Will they escape, will they fall to their demise, or will they become the Inbyo's snack.

As soon as the wind stopped both of them yelled suddenly causing the Inbyo to become disoriented by the sudden yell but it only lasted a second but it seems that was all the two needed to create some distance.

The girl pulled a gun from out of nowhere? How did she do that? Must be a undocumented Relic at her disposal. How is a mere little girl supposed to kill all of them with a gun?

*BOOM!*

Looks like I spoke too soon…

*BOOM*

Now looking closely she is a red whistle. A red whistle has ammunition that's not even available to even most black whitsles. How did she even get her hands on a gun? Must of picked it off some fools corpse.

From an unexperienced person perspective her shots are random but in my eyes those shots a causing sever damage to the Inbyo pack. The little one killed more than one hundred by now but it seems between shooting and jumping tree to tree her child body is starting to fail her. Even though the curse can't hit her full force she's starting to feel it.

Five minutes has past yet she's still pushing forward. She has some strong will power. The two caught my attention, now they have my interest. Getting a closer look at them the girl looks familiar…

Ah… I knew that "meat" would return here. My apologies… Riko would return one day but I thought she would do so when she's older but judging from her performance age doesn't matter.

(Editor: and jail is just a place… Looking at you author of made in abyss)

Now it would of made the journey more easier if she came when she is older cause she'll have more stamina. Even though I can tell she has been training but her body's current age has limits.

Now onwards to the boy. He's just as interesting. I have seen an O bot or two but not quiet as this one. Its more human looking than mechanical? I wonder how hard I could hit it before it breaks? They are getting quite close so I'll have Marulk prepare for our new guest. Lets go greet them.

(Riko's pov)

I am so damn tired of these Inbyo. I had to have Rig carry me cause my legs have grown too tired from the constant running and jumping while shooting these annoying monkeys. I know they are not monkeys but kinda wished I had Frieza right now.

The seeker camp which is now closer but the damn Inbyo will catch us so I need to cut off their root to us. I loaded a special mix explosive round and aimed at the tree they are currently about to jump to. The round doesn't produce as much heat but it creates a way bigger boom. I fired at the tree trunk taking out most of the trunk but the tree held until the Inbyo landed on it and fell into the abyss.

They could still technically reach us if they want but I just noticed they all backed off. Did they get scared? No… Looking at them they are out for blood since I'm sure I killed off a twelfth of their population. If I was them wouldn't want to mess with person here either.

[Secret quest: (complete) [happy frieza day]

Objective: exterminate a 12th of a monkey-like population.

Reward: railgun mod blueprint.]

Well thats gonna be handy. This can make everything i have hit harder. I might need to start some genocides of the residence of Dioblo's trash disposal.

Walking to the seeker camp is pretty much a cake walk but I can tell I don't have much time till I pass out from exhaustion and nausea. Oh my the board walk looks comfty right now… Walking up to the elevator it doesn't come down.

"I'll try to grapple us on the camp since the wind isn't strong at all here" says Rig as he launched his arms over but his expression goes to surprises then shock.

"Um… Riko, something grabbed my arms…" said Rig a bit scared.

Oh yeah the dusty bitch, forgot about her. I hope our ass whooping won't be like the anime…
