Super Spectre
After the deed was done, Boris thought that he wouldn't have to deal with the threat that was known as Spectre on the spaceship Waraabe. Little did he know about a lurking threat that will soon intimidate the universe. After he spent 2 months on Earth, taking a break from adventuring, he has recieved word that a distant world was taken over by a dictator in a short, yet hostile confrontation. "I must do something about this!" he exclaimed, as he ran to a small rocket that will take him to said planet where he shall intervene.
Boris Arrives[edit | edit source]
After landing on a field near a small village, he examined the parameters. What he gained through those observations is that the world that he landed on, Galveneccia, was an extrasolar planet sharing similar conditions to Earth to the point where it had its own solar system. The people have set up gardens where flowers and wheat grow. He approaches one of the houses and knocks on the door. The person who opened the door was a woman who was 5 feet 11 inches, had hair that was as brown as Folgers Crystals, and possessed nice golden brown skin. "Who is this?" the woman said to the hero. "I am Boris. I have come to approach the tyrant that has taken control of your home," he said. "My name is Heather," the girl responded. He asked Heather about who took over the world and why he did it. She responded:
“ | We were busy minding our own business, going on with our lives as usual, until I saw something that looked like a mermaid with a really strange tail. For some reason, a mysterious liquid was dripping out of the tail. He was shouting "HA HA! COWER IN FEAR, FOR I AM LEGION!!" as he was striking down my people with lightning bolts. He also brought mention about taking us over and to destroy our world. I could see mechanical parts in his buttocks, meaning that he must be a robot. | ” |
"He's a robot, you say?" said Boris. "Yes," responded Heather. "So this guy has pale skin, mechanical parts, and has a freaky tail, right? That sounds oddly familiar..." he pondered. He moved around the village for a while, taking time to deduce what that guy could be. He realized:
“ | EUREKA! While I stayed at a spaceship for a little while, I had to contend with an extraterrestrial force which manifested itself within the ship. Excuse me. That was the reviled Spectre, known for its white color and being a hostile mechanical entity. I proposed that the individual that took over your world was part of its kind. Apparently, after I defeated him, another mechanical being was created to take its place. I also discovered that those robots have a similar function, which I refer to as the Spectre Cycle:
I have also found out that they reproduce by an unknown machine. It is said to be the source for all Spectre models. If it was expunged, then the race is effectively killed off. Unfortunately, its wherabouts are unknown. |

The Prophecy[edit | edit source]
According to Galveneccian lore, the planet would someday be usurped by a hostile force (in this case, Super Spectre). When that force possesses power over the planet's inhabitants, a hero will rise to dethrone him. He would come from another place to do battle and win. He must also have Hairstyle #1, with regular light brown color. Coincedentally, Boris satisfies the requirements present to save Galveneccia from utter terror.
He Fights![edit | edit source]
Boris was walked to a statue of one of the former heroes in the land. "You appeal to the prophecy, go and save our world," said an old man. He took the platinum shortsword from the base of the statue and walked to the nearby forest.
The Forest[edit | edit source]
Aw, the forest, such a humble place. The hero chose wisely when he deciding to start his journey to defeat Super Spectre. "I have been through many woodlands in my time, so I won't have a problem here," he said. Prolonged use of the platinum swords allowed them to be more effective in his hands. Eventually, he'll find a better weapon.
Queen Vespa[edit | edit source]
“Who are you? Why are you here? Identify yourself at once!”
“I came to rid this world of the one known as Super Spectre!”
Queen Vespa is the guardian of the forest. She was a friendly spirit until the invasion occured, now she has turned evil. Now it was up to him to free her from her curse, but how? Well, let's just say that it's going to require a beating! The two engaged in combat with Boris landing the first several hits with his sword. The Queen emanated a rainbow ray targeted towards him. He dodges, giving himself some time to plan his next attack. After 7 minutes, he bested the Queen. She told him:
“ | Thank you, Boris, for removing my curse. I will be forever grateful for this act. May we wish you good luck on your adventure! | ” |
Before he left the forest, he consulted the Queen about the wherabouts of the next place in the world that was corrupted. She told him: "Go to Kohl's Crest. There are rumors about Super Spectre releasing a basilica to guard the place. As expected, it would damage its ecosystem and disrupt the balance of life in surrounding areas." After that, Boris set his sights for the Crest.
Kohl's Crest[edit | edit source]
“This looks a lot like Level 1 of Sneaky Snakes.”
Kohl's Crest was a mountainous area with steep inclines and foreboding creatures. "Luckily, time heals all wounds," he said because he can't starve or tire. Throughout the journey, he encountered many fascinating creatures and attacked them without hesitation. He took a short break after reaching the 27 feet mark.
“The basilica wouldn't be too bad.”
He faced it, boasting a confident pose. Later, it let out a huge roar. He drawed his shortsword and ran towards it. It coughed up fireballs as he was moving along. Following the action, he jabbed it in its chest three times, squealing in pain. He then proceeded to stab it a couple more times. The basilica tried forming itself into a knot in an attempt to strangle him, failing in the process because it was too wide. He hopped on the top of it and moved towards its forehead. He finished it off by stabbing it in its eyes. Within 2 minutes and 30 seconds, the beast fell to the ground, wailing as it dropped dead. This was no time to celebrate, for he had more work to do- cleaning a planet from utter terror.
Daisyland[edit | edit source]
5 hours after the defeat, he approached what appeared to be an amusement park. "Hmmmm..." he said. "It appears that it was just the beginning." The world was huge, and we're not talking about the farming majority! Night fell upon it, being warded by the lavender lights. People were celebrating, dancing like they've never danced before.
“I could use another break. Then again, you never know what's gonna come after you...”
As he was navigating the amusement park, he saw something purple and winged. Even though the description is fitting, that creature was NOT the Flying Purple People Eater. When it saw him, it ran and made itself transparent as a way to pass obstacles. He didn't bother to kill it, for it was an impossible feat considering the items he used.
"Oh, goodness! What is that?!" a man exclaimed. People were panicking. Just when things were going well! A loud, yet soothing voice sounded:
“ | Attention, attendants! This shall be the last time you have used me to power your fair! Know that you shall pay your price, for my qualities were abused. It is time to exact retribution. | ” |
He consulted Heather with special means as to the mysterious woman figure floating near the Ferris wheel. She told him: "That's Ysiad. The people at Daisyland used her power to run the amusement park. She can be utilized many times until she strikes out. As you can see, she slightly resembles Mozilla Firefox without the tail." He proceeded to run towards the Ferris wheel, jumping on a cart. With appropriate timing, he jumps off- directing his shortsword on her forehead. He makes it! The woman screamed in agony! Her hair turned blue, resembling Mozilla Thunderbird. "You've pissed her off now!" said the panicker. He responded, "I like a challenge!" He fired his grappling hook to an arch and jumped. He landed on her head. She punches him and misses. She had considerations on grabbing him, but he was too small. However, she picked him up with her left hand. He stabbed her index finger rapidly as he was ascending. As expected, gallons of blood were falling on the fair. Unfortunately, one individual died from drowning in the spill. It took a while, possibly longer than the other fights, to bring down Ysiad. "My God, what have I done?!" he exclaimed, for he killed off a supposedly powerful entity who wasn't evil by Super Spectre's appearance. Instead, it was anger which overwhelmed her. He said: "Well, you gotta do what you gotta do."
Moving On[edit | edit source]
Following the defeat, he gained word about a nearby mansion which was abandoned. According to some people, this mansion used to be a very popular tourist attraction; now a mysterious entity has taken control with nobody bothering to defeat it. On another note, the current owner and his best friends left a mythril sword there in the event where a hero would be needed in a time of crisis. As he walked, he saw an interesting sight.
"What could this mean?" he asked. Turns out that this isn't your ordinary ghost house; nontheless, it's a weird place. The reason being will come later.
Enter the Mansion [edit | edit source]
"Man, Alex has given me an odd assortment of weapons and items," he said when approaching the place. He went inside, slowly pushing the French doors which revealed your typical fancy lving room: fireplace, tall bookcases, and distinguished chairs and other comfort devices. This was just the beginning. Only then if he saw what's behind the door which is straight ahead, he would really see this place for what it's worth. Opening said door, he observed the hallway that proceeded the living room. It was extremely tall with the ceiling possibliy being higher than the mansion itself. The walls were painted with extravagant shades of lavender with vases and other items about. In a slight twist, the knight armors gained sentinence and attempted to harm Boris using their pointy sticks. Their attempts either failed or did little harm to him. At one point, he claimed that the poking tickles! He his adversaries aren't trying to be evil, then he shouldn't defeat them. All the fun ended when he went down a flight of stairs. It was pitch black and all he could see were some fireball-like entities floating up and down and repeating their patterns. "Don't take those things for granted," he said to himself. He was thinking of a plan to navigate this dark room without risking a life.
With grace, he ran and jumped across 2 platforms with partial concetration on the wisps, making it across the next threshold. All of a sudden, the floor collapsed with him falling in the process. When he recovered, he saw what appeared to be a phoenix. As they made eye contact, the phoenix let out an ear-splitting screech. He pulled out his Cobalt Repeater and struck a confident pose. He was floating without the aid of wings or a device of equal value due to the fact that gravity has been reversed. This guy looked vaguely familiar. With prior knowledge and courtesy from his benefactors, he heard a voice echo:
“ | Shoot it in the head! | ” |
With slight hesitation, he fired as many arrows as he can towards the creature's head while dodging the laser and fireball barrages. Following the sights, he got an idea: When it continued shooting fireballs, he fired his arrows in an attempt to set them on fire to do more damage against it; however, his plan failed due to the fact that his opponent was made of fire and it would absorb it- making itself more powerful in the process. With around 800 arrows used, he vanquished the dreaded Deathwing- allowing him to gain possession of the mythril sword. Queen Vespa teleported him out of the mansion, but where would he stand? This may be his biggest adventure yet, but there is still more to come.
2nd Fair[edit | edit source]
Luckily for him, his next destination was going to be easier to traverse; even though, danger still lurked ahead. However, he gained sight of another carnival where he would have to visit someday. Before he proceeded, he engaged in a brief prayer to Sophia for she is responsible for giving him his knowledge today as well as the fact that he loves to worship her. As he went, he stumbled upon the plains nearby. He saw more of those purple things. Luckily for him, he now has a weapon which can help deal with them. He said, "Heather! I think something's wrong with the Pigrons! Can you help explain this to me?" She responded:
“ | The Pigron Plains were a nice and docile place at one point in time; but once again, the presence of "Greg" has made them hostile. Be warned of their abilities. | ” |
After 30 minutes, he encountered a monster that looked slightly different from the rest. With its eye centered towards him, he had no choice but to kill it. The first few minutes of battle was like a bullfight in the sense that Boris had to circle around the "Super Pigron" in an attempt to make it unconscious. Within the efforts, he managed to get the beast to be vulnerable. Like so, he eagerly used his newfound mythril sword to make several slashes on the creature's sides. Then, it turned invisible and made itself visible when entering the hero's abdomen making him face real pain. "AAAA!" he screamed, but that was just the beginning. By the time it was done, it used its horn to: gore him, fling him up into the air, and when he falls down and gets paralyzed in the process, do God knows what. By the time several days have passed, he has done it. He has defeated the Super Pigron! Although he felt as if the battle was highly unnecessary and it wouldn't make a huge difference in his journey, he moved on to the next fair where he would face a recurring foe.
