Then, Kellybel saw the group of elves saying to each other, “Let’s go out; ignore the shop owner.”

The elves all went outside to continue with their spinning and leaping.

Next, Mr. Fang saw the female elf rogue who claimed that her name was Kelly having a hopeless expression on her face.

...

Different from other games, in Dark Souls, the players learned and used battle skills and sword techniques with corresponding weapons. They learned spells through special spell scrolls.

With the talents of the main character, the players could use the corresponding sword technique after they got their hand on the Farron Greatsword.

Although they were all nameless people, as main characters, they still had some talents such as the growth in combat techniques and the use of battle skills and spells mentioned above.

These talents relieved some pressure from the players. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to clear the stage all their lives.

...

“Be they lord or legend, the curse shows no mercy. What a sham.” Farron Undead Legion’s swords and armor which contained their power before they died were placed on their throne. Seeing this scene, the crestfallen warrior who had told the main character how to traverse Farron Keep lamented self-mockingly.

Yes, this was the destiny of the Lords of Cinder.

...

It had to be mentioned that all through the game, each battle was a test to the limit for the players.

After watching the livestream, the new players who were level 9 and the saint-level masters began to adjust their state and obtained quite a lot of inspiration.

Also, some of their habits got influenced and changed during the process.

For example, after watching that Nalan Hongwu killed Farron’s Undead Legion with the Dark Sword, the embarrassing dog-headed man felt that the Dark Sword was indeed powerful and even changed the name of his livestream from [Dark Souls 3] to [Dark Sword 3]. Now, he was on [Dark Sword 3 Episode 10].

Meanwhile, the elves were working hard in the game in order to get the ‘Breakdance Greatsword’.

The great sword that contained the sword technique of Farron’s Undead Legion was jokingly called the Breakdance Greatsword by Mr. Fang, but it had great abilities in the game. For example, when the players battled with the nightmarish black knight, they could dodge the opponents’ attacks and counterattack easily with this sword technique and corresponding movements.

Therefore, when you see someone dancing awkwardly in front of you, never underestimate your opponent. Otherwise, you have a very high probability of dying tragically.

However, for the real masters, they could use any weapons they liked as long as they mastered them.

...

When the players returned with the remains of Farron’s Undead Legion and opened the Catacombs of Carthus, which was a nation that had been devoured by the abyss, they embarked on the journey to bring back the remains of the second Lord of Cinder.

The entire second section of the game belonged to Pontiff Sulyvahn.

This might be the most powerful and most terrifying enemy whom the players will encounter so far.

Sulyvahn came from the Painted World of Ariandal, which was a place covered in ice and a shelter for wandering and despairing people from the real world.

That world was full of refugees who had nothing with them.

These people got comfortable in conformity and became eroded by this comfortable lifestyle.

It was why this ambitious young sorcerer didn’t fit in this world.

Therefore, this ambitious sorcerer left the Painted World.

He came to the ruins of the previously prosperous kingdom of giants. The only thing left was the burning Profaned Flame.

[The flame is profaned since its eternal burning violates the natural laws. The flame contains the great power of abyss which can erode people’s minds and trigger evil with its great power.]

[Note: This should be a description found in the game, but I can’t find it anywhere.]

As described by the words on the item, Sulyvahn dug out the ruins of the Profaned Capital by accident.

When Sulyvahn left the Profaned Capital, he was no longer the young man who had just walked out of the Painted World.

His unfading ambition now blazed like the Profaned Flame.

With a greatsword engulfed in the Profaned Flame and the ambition stained by the abyss, he turned his eyes toward Irythyll.

Deduced from some information and clues, Irythyll was probably the Royal City of the ancient the Lord of Cinder Gwyn, Anor Londo.

Undoubtedly, there lived the descendants of Gwyn, including the Sun Princess Gwynevere and her Silver Knights, Dark Sun Gwyndolin and his Dark Moon Blades, and their sister Yorshka.

In the ancient times, Gwyn’s knights and the royal members lived on this land of kings, and it had been one of the most prosperous cities in the world.

Silver Knights guarded the Cathedral, and Smough, one of the four knights of Gwyn, was also stationed here.

However, this great city experienced a great change after Sulyvahn arrived.

No one had expected that this sorcerer who came from a distant place would erode the whole dynasty.

The mysterious illness of Gwyndolin made him lose control over the Blade of the Dark Moon covenant, and the Way of White priests couldn’t escape Sulyvahn’s control. Also, Archdeacon McDonell discovered the Deep Spell, and it helped him release a weird magic from human dregs and erode the priests slowly. Gradually, Sulyvahn’s true intentions began to be revealed.

Irythyll was full of residents who had been turned into enslaved undead, and even worse, wild beasts. Some were even turned into spider-like creatures with skeleton bodies and barely recognizable human faces.

Gwyndolin’s outrider knights also ended tragically. For example, the Dancer of the Boreal Valley was a royal descendant of Irithyll, and so was Vordt of the Boreal Valley who accompanied the dancer all year round.

Eventually, Smough, one of Gwyn’s four knights, and Gwyn’s second son Gwyndolin, had also become food to be devoured.

It was how ‘Aldrich, Devourer of Gods’ got its name.

Stepping into the deep cathedral, the players could see the upper body of Gwyndolin propped up by mud-like lower body.

These were the enemies that the players were going to face: Pontiff Sulyvahn and Aldrich, Devourer of Gods.

Undoubtedly, engaging in a battle with such enemies was like a myth and a legend in itself!

As the game went on, the players went through countless hardships and deaths, traveled through the Catacombs of Carthus, and came to Irithyll. Under the moonlight and looking at the cold city that had once been extremely prosperous and powerful, even the saint-level masters began breathing heavily without them knowing.
