## Tips

This is a Consecutive Ranking - you need to have different strategies for the 1st battle and the 2nd battle.

[The 1st battle]
Watch incoming attacks carefully to parry. If you fail it, you will lose lots of time. Just focus on parrying and avoid loss of time.

[The 2nd battle]
The enemies change their way of attack depending on where you are.

In the 2nd battle, before an attack, a prediction of attack range could be shown in two ways.

When a player is in the orange area, the enemies will perform parry able attacks, and when in the purple area, they will perform unparryable attacks.

Getting to the orange area is the key to winning!

## Story

**Story 1**

Rain: Who doesn't?
Liz: It's already plenty humid in the real world. Seeing it rain here too is really bumming me out.
Rain: Well, they try to keep the weather somewhat in sync with the real world, so it's only natural.
Liz: Yeah, And Leprechaun territory is in a swamp, meaning it's even more common to see rain here...
Rain: Mm-hm. Not like there's anything we can do about it, though. Might as well gather those materials.
Liz: Yeah, might as well...
Female Player A: You think it's around here?
Female Player B: No, it's gotta be over that way. C'mon, let's check it out.
Liz: Hm? Are there people over there?
Rain: Wow, there sure are a lot of girls... And not all of them are Leprechauns, either.
Liz: That's odd. I know this area's good for mining and harvesting. But I never got the impression players of other races came here much because of the climate.
Rain: Maybe there's some sort of special event going on or something.
Liz: You might be right... Why don't we have a look and see what's going on?
Rain: Sure!

Female Player A: Hey, I found it first!
Female Player B: Who care who saw it first? I was the one who MAPPED it with my skill!
Liz: It's those girls we saw earlier. Looks like they're arguing about something.
Rain: Maybe they're fighting over materials?
Liz: They look like bargain hunters trying to snatch up something seasonal that's on sale.
Rain: Ahaha, I guess that's one way of looking at it.

**Story 2**

Female Player A: Hey, no fair! That ore is mine!
Female Player B: No, it's not! It's mine!
???: You snooze, you lose! While you two were arguing, I just helped myself.
Rain: That woman over there...
Liz: She's a Leprechaun just like us. And pretty agile too, swiping that ore form them like that.
???: I can't afford to lose at this quest... I just can't!
Female Player A: Hey, get back here!
Female Player B: Let's call a truce! We need to catch her and get that ore back!
Liz: ...I heard her say something about a quest. I guess there really is an event going on, then.
Rain: I'll look it up. Let's see... Hmm, there's an event announcement from the admins... Ah, here it is! Yeah, this must be it. Apparently it's the "June Bride Quest."
Liz: "June Bride," huh? So it's a wedding-themed event... That must've been why those girls were at each other's throats.
Rain: It says here that collecting a set of items will unlock a wedding event in a forest church. But it's only available to the first few players who gather all of the items.
Liz: Wow, a wedding at a church in the forest... That sounds pretty romantic.
Rain: And from the look of it, almost all the items and materials can be found in Leprechaun territory.
Liz: That explains why we've been seeing so many girls here.
Rain: Yup... So what do you say, Liz? Want to take a stab at that quest too?
Liz: Hmm... It sounds like fun, but I don't exactly have anyone to marry, so I'll pass.
Rain: Liz...
Liz: What about you, Rain?
Rain: Uh, n-no, I don't have anyone either... I'd rather just focus on gathering materials some more.
Liz: Okay, back to gathering it is. Looks like neither of us has much going on in our love lives.
Rain: Hehe, I guess so. Ah well.

Female Player A: We finally found you!
Female Player B: Now hand over that ore!
???: You just don't know when to give up, huh? But even if you kill me, I'm not handing this over. Not unless this ore is randomly dropped when I doe Face it. It's my property. There's nothing you guys can do to take it from me.
Female Player A: Ugh... I didn't think about that.
Female Player B: Guess we'll have to give up. I hate to admit it, but she's right.
???: ... \*sigh\*... Talk about stubborn... Well, on to the next material.

**Story 3**

Liz: Phew, finally found it! This should make it easier to raise thrust-type weapon skill levels.
Rain: Yeah, for like rapiers and spears, right?
Liz: Yep! Oh yeah, come to think of it, wasn't that Glimmering Lapis part of the wedding event too? I'm pretty sure it was one of the items you have to collect.
Rain: Yeah, it was.
Liz: Which means it's pulling double duty as both a normal item and an event item. It's not too uncommon, really, but it could cause some problems.
Rain: Hm? What do you mean?
Liz: I mean, there are people who are going to want this for completely different reasons than us. It'd be one thing if it was just an event item, but it's not...
Rain: Basically, its rarity will be higher than normal while the event's going on.
Liz: I see...

???: Oh, it's you guys... Didn't I see you earlier...?
Liz: You again. You're taking part in that wedding event, aren't you?
???: Yep...which means you guys are my rivals! I won't let you have that Glimmering Lapis!
Rain: Wow! She's already after it!
Liz: She's really fast, too! Rain, get the lapis and run! I'll hold her off so she can't come after you! **Hiyaaah!**
???: Ungh! How did you manage to parry my lighting-fast attacks?!
Liz: Hate to break it to you, but a combo like that is nothing compared to what that redhead can dish out! Look at your weapon. The blade is chipped just from the impact.
???: Huh?!
Liz: Now it's my turn! Take this!
???: Augh!
Liz: Give it up already. You're no match for me, and you know it.
???: ...

**Story 4**

Rain: Medb...?
Liz: Did she just summon a new weapon using blacksmith magic?!
Medb: Prepare to die!
Rain: Ungh! Liz, look out! **Thousand...Rain!**
Medb: **Augh! Guhah!**
Liz: Th-Thanks, Rain. I owe you one.
Rain: I'm just glad you're okay. As for you, Medb, your HP is running low. I'd call it quits if I were you.
Medb: That move you used just now... Is that the same kind of magic I'm using?
Rain: You mean that weapon summoning technique that only Leprechauns can use? The theory behind an OSS is different, and I did come up with it from scratch.
Liz: I told you she's strong. There are only two or three players in all of ALO that can take her on.
Medb: I can believe it. You're both really strong. I give up. You can keep the lapis.
