We finally open our eyes as the bright light looses its effect. The curtains start coming down. But stop before fully coming down it looses its power.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4QiLGwI12
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhK7HxG35B
“Come on Ronin” Warzheil says as he gets on my back again “We need to get off this bridge. Before both the colossus collapse under the bridge.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P8BsWm72G
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrol9NIZ14
“What is this colossus you are talking about?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIqGhsOh5X
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC02J2xOih
“I will tell you as you run, we still have some way to go before we get off this bridge” he replies when suddenly the bridge trembles and a booming sound resonates in the surrounding.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBDTdxARPw
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LIkLTh4mH
“Start running Ronin lad!” he shouts as he bonks my heads.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCQhjonn9Y
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PzeXgitXr
“Fine, why are you getting so restless?. Although even I know a booming sound so loud and the bridge trembling can never be good.” I say as I have an Idea of what’s happening.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXMD9kmCgV
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRuNINwX1X
“I will guess, something was holding up this bridge and now that the bridge no longer has power, its collapsing?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqdAgmFAq5
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIL63VKgBY
“That saves me a lot of explanation lad, yes, now listen closely, there are 2 to 4 colossi under that bridge, giant and more sturdier versions of Dratnir soldiers. They are the redeemers of the bridge.” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWg2UugHE8
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbb10wb8UI
“Hmm?” I ask with a grunt as I run.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqYzcbePXa
“Hmm” he gives back a short grunts as an approval “Normally, if someone succeeds in destroying the 4 Dratnir Soldiers on the bridge, which have weakened over time, the colossus under the bridge will awaken and track the one who destroyed them and hunt them, destroying the bridge in the process.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IuXu5iG4t

20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzUiM2ntss
“I would not sleep for days if something that big came for me. Wait don’t tell me that it’s going to chase us!” I ask in a voice full of fear, although that’s highly unlikely, but I don’t want to die just yet.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZtnIjkLRJ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNgVN2MxAd
“I don’t think it will chase us because the bridge has lost all its power.” He replies and continues20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtApz59gWIG

"Bridges are sacred, lad. No one's dumb enough to break them. Unless you’ve got wings, a warship, or a death wish, you’re not crossing these rivers. Although boats are only a one way travel.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwY3fo5kli
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBl4ErIRbC
A one way travel huh? The current of this river did seemed powerful even though that gap near the supply station.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1wZ3E7Pgl
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0NGaTQe4e
We have been running for hours now and now, finally, I feel like I can sleep soon.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaL0miaFvJ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiVJMKu1Aq
“Oh! There the exit, finally! I feel very hungry.” Warzheil says as I hear a grumbling of his stomach.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP36t87qMaG
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLuvNUPPc9
“Oldman did you fart on me!?” I ask enraged20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtADEivWIm4

“Hey, I can’t help it you know, don’t you feel the nature’s call too?” he says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzTclSWQkw
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgE4m3HEPK
“You going to eat food or answer the nature’s call? Do one at a time, Well now that you mention it, I also need to take a break, but first lets set up camp.” I say on which Warzheil agrees.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhcddTkoXl
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdwkdx4pLc
We both get off the bridge and a few minutes after we witness such a massive bridge get swept by the fast flow of the Kobe river. The walls on its borders breaking, even though we are almost 2 kilometres away from the other end of the bridge I can still see it, the dine pavement age against test of time twist as the structure under it is swept away forcibly20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsY8dcmjei
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwNVFEyHwO
“First we need to do something about Drax. We can’t just take him with us, from this point forth it’s the demon lord’s area. And my forge is also there.” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iAnfU8UM9
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9bkNKThVw
“How about we cremate him? Although on Earth, that is supposed to be the child’s right,” I suggest.
“Yes, Drax has a daughter. And although this is supposed to be a secret only I and Drax knew, since you are his god, I will let you in on it.” he replies.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxGccgWn2y
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CzrXO6QUv
“What Secret? Spill it, I am not the one for cliffhangers.” I say very much interested in secret of his, expecting to get some wisdom that will help me to move forward in this world.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bcv3lR8Pc
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBNDcXSOgu
Warzheil sighed. "That girl doesn’t know the truth. She thinks her mother was human."20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnPzr8iaFZ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvIg0QdbZe
Ronin raised an eyebrow. "And?"20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aJ0kKIlPP
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLPd2XqZWS
Before Warzheil could finish, his mouth snapped shut. Like some unseen force had sealed it.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SOQ2zScSH
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOj9bVSCWF
“I am guessing too much but … its Ethis right?” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hpb9n4Nye
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1NuIV8urx
Warzheil nods with an angry expression, current rising on his hands.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06VOa5VZQ3
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNPCcIPAdc
“Yes, it seems like she doesn’t want you to know.” he says when suddenly the flow of wind feels different.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHtPQJriTt
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY38nq7qVyk
We turn our heads towards the woods where a light starts to form into humanoid shape.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPecqZvFSPW
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iN4OlH0za
“You broke your promise Warzheil!” the light speaks in a voice with a mix of distress and frustration.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFJlyMbYbn
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACPgLvo9Qj
“Someone told me not too long ago that she had more pressing matters than to accept my request, a mortal’s request.” I say with sarcasm20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvGuzp0apR
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97aItMv8BZ
“Do not be mistaken Ronin, I came here because this dwarf broke his promise.” Ethis says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLxDd0S6mc
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wNILUdZt8
“Goddess Ethis here fell in love with Drax. They named their child Gloria and I was there, it was a secret affair that only few knew, including Zamaba.” Warzheil says but the goddess doesn’t looks pleased.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlkHrPPdpj
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGeSPVGkTk
“Stop! Stop at once Dwarf” she says in a threatening voice20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPSZvPOVck
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD1OVPJVpr
“Gloria thinks her mother was human and died when she was born.” Warzheil continues as if unbothered by Ethis’s presence.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nRnSGJZpv
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTWDDJX4ud
“That is enough, Mortal!” This time she seem pissed off as she summons a spear of light and throws it on Warzheil.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE058t5kzHX
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq4befxJuS
I can’t just let the Dwarf die. The divine spear hiss through the air, heat radiating like a dying star. The unseen barrier around me flared in the slightest, devouring its glow before it completely vanishes just like it appeared from Ethis’ hand.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVFQXCbzjc
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4V69pL7Zb
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaRMFyf6dJ
“What was that lad?” Warzheil says in wonder “I thought I was seeing things earlier but I got to ask, how did you do that?”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpYlvCuHlJ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXpK8DjCKO
“Anomaly, do not stand in my way, unless you want to make enemy of us gods!” she says, her anger palpable.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2pnRyq0eV
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NhSvQAa2q
“Calm down both of you, Ethis, I did not expect gods to have such lack of patience, and Oldman, stop pushing your luck. What are you both? Enemies?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSfV6hpyy5
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4EYRHMkIV
“You don’t know anything yet, lad, she was watching! She saw that Drax was weak, and instead of trying to save her husband, she just watched! How can I ever forgive her!” he yells at Ethis.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazinh5KqPd
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HYMcSlCYh
The very air trembles as Ethis opposes with her voice going from low to a loud one, stirring the very wind and the ground trembles as the pebbles jump.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4b75vDMQo
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0Q6SoLjwO
“Don’t speak as if you know anything!”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftiAMPHvqO
She says then pauses as If forcing a breath.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBas4LXeIw
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28qW8Huxze
Ethis clenched her fists. "You think I didn’t try?" Her voice wavered, barely above a whisper. "I… I did. But I was bound. Chained by the King of the Heavens.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeafETonb1
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfEaT0ARpk
“He had plotted with Zamba, and by aiding him from the shadows, he got rid of the greatest threat to his throne. And I could do was watch."
Ethis’ voice wavered, strained as if she were holding back tears. A cold wind swept through the clearing, rustling the trees like whispered judgment. She lowered her gaze, her fists clenching so tightly her knuckles turned white.
"I... I couldn’t do anything."
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6h6Elj8Zms
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3uAgJfQga
Even gods fight in this accursed world huh?
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHYIIZuE3n
“That’s some seriously messed-up family dynamics,” I say “A daughter not knowing her mother, a father that believed in some god even though he is one and that too faith in someone who might not even exist, and a mother and wife who is bound by world’s laws while her husband wasn’t?, and above all, gods who sound like they would come crying out of the skies if I started roasting them.” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3q7ZvBHfZ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctD1eUNofr
There is a silence, Ethis doesn’t say anything on my last comment.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvS9owCc6Q
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT91zmtQU5
“Drax was a mortal, hundreds of thousands of years ago. He achieved godhood by his devotion to the god he believed in so that god cannot be fake.” Ethis says.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqhzHiwzCh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzPs4NzONo
“What? You are telling me that god is real?” Warzheil shot back in surprise.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fBvQ1A6Fe
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9JjajB6ge
“I cannot answer that further, I have their eyes on me now. All I ask is the right to cremate my husband and see him off one last time.” She says turning to me.
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0R2VEm29R
“What do I get by letting you, who ditched my devotee of whom I am supposed to be god of?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3K5mBAyaM
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBINkw3crZ
“I-Right, I will tell you when your sister or her family is in danger.” She says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERjCOug5Ah
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dIljkMblE
“You know trade. What do you say Oldman?” I ask Warzheil20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbasFPXlv2z
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8CyTGg6nG
“Suit yourselves, I am in foul mood.” He says
We decide to cremate Drax’s body in a secluded place, I could see many bright energies leaving the skeleton of this dead god who considered me his god, the simple place around him becomes full of flora as the skeleton turns into ashes.
Carefully, we gather the ashes and place them in a cloth, Ethis tries to take it but Warzheil snatches and stows it in his small space pocket.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4drMGaqP1
“This is for Gloria not you.” He says, on which Ethis steps back under her veil of light and nods as she disappears.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN92mBlUZMk
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPh1G5GbDIX
The air felt heavier after Ethis left.
Warzheil didn’t speak.
Neither did I.
There was nothing left to say. We set up camp in silence, the river’s roar the only sound between us. Then, the old dwarf stood up, rubbing his gut.
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEk1cGSODP
“Right. Nature calls.” He says as he walks towards the woods.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3T5MY8CpU
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMBTVQnwgZ
I waved him off, leaning back against a rock. Finally, a moment to breathe. Or so I thought—until the trees shook.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfadytGXjv
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarx86IbwTg
“Hey! At least leave the pocket with the things in it.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡae3EzFOspW
Warzheil throws the pocket at me, which I almost drop but manage to catch it.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDXpQkB2Nx
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAnw97SZB6
Minutes pass as I grow more and more concerned, Warzheil isn’t back. I was about to get up to find him but I notice the trees shake as it something was coming out of it, so I ready my spear, but instead Warzheil comes running.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H2I4s4ltm
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNQbT3kTeH
“You sure took your time!” I shout but he doesn’t look very happy as right behind him, a giant T-rex tears through the forest into the clearing near the shore of the river.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO6Q2dMcs1
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsYZrPcibM
“Is that a freaking Tyrannosaurus?” I ask as my expression distorts into the same as Warzheil.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbi67SVdl6
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUBx8ZzKLT
But this one seems different then what I know, it has armour like things all around its body except some parts.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVzbgsHVxr
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQrnPkVzeN
“It has Earth element, my lighting only tickles it, sick lizard ambushed me just when I finished my stuff together!” he says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4T6K48Ptq4
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡautA5xOhCZ
I almost burst into a laugh at Warzheil, but I try to control it and throw my spear, this time with its plasma tip on. It did little as it deflects from the armour around its eye, its smart, it knew where I would aim and dodged it.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48hzIPMQ8a
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAHUsQRQru
It's eyes glow as it makes a sound as if a giant eagle was trying to compete with a lion’s roar, my ears feel itchy from its sound.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrALEGSPxtT
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF0ZjPYh0S
Suddenly the ground erupts as a pillar made of soil hits me, I imagined I would go flying but instead end up staggering. Surprisingly I don’t feel much impact from it, in fact I left a big dents on the place I stomped.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9jZQ1dygY
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHijUu51VyH
Seeing such progressions in my strength I feel compelled to try out my power, so I sprint, and the beast takes notice of me, trying to stomp me as I try to get my spear back, but it fails, I take the spear and try cutting through it but the heat is not enough to cleave its flesh deeply.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5s8mLNuNx
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EeaKd60Ss
The beast tries to stomp me again but Warzheil throws his hammer which staggers the beast.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD9o3b8qSu
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2F8NJIzZd
I use the chance go for its eye again. Using my agility I climb the giant beast and impale its left eye. The plasma spear does its job as fire erupts from its eye and the beast is felled.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHZZvWKX59
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpbZvTXpaU
Bull’s eye, no, Dino’s eye.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5PvxhTQuB
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQDqHfUPiP
“You knew eye was its weak spot?” Warzheil heil says as he approach me.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkvGnOmq1m
I stare at Warzheil at first, then as he gets closer I cannot control and burst into laugh.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o66LzkKIu
“Hey lad, listen…”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvewttxxLRn
I start laughing “So, A beast fell for you just by watching you take a dump?!” I say. Only after processing the joke for a second, Warzheil starts laughing too.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCTflYDLDt
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMrVxx5m67
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55dERfGfwn
“*laughs* I need to note that down. *Laugh*, its been a while since I heard a good old joke.” he says laughing20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrpqLb24V1
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuRyMYhkgd
I prepare the fire again which was extinguished by the T-rex’s movements “Now you know I wasn’t lying when I said I am old.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHVWrZBLAA
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEDnO7LXyg
I had already prepared the space by making it’s ground soft using my spear’s knob and also set up the fire using its plasma, But Warzheil takes out a small tent-like thing form his pocket.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OMgJvPpUE
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOoDCSB6S4
“How did you even fit things in that small space?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuAWVucTB3
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIUlDKvjl7
“Hey, you might not know it but, these pockets are so rare I could make a new hammer out of the metals I would get out of selling even one of these” He says almost flexing something I don’t understand.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zGaV93NBv
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgquyTRA1LP
“You do realise I have no idea of how that’s supposed to tell me its worth right?” I say giving him a stare.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCiVx3kPyZ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCOMlZflbl
“*Sigh* So now I need to teach you the basics too. Fine, listen to me….” Warzheil goes on to explain the trade and commerce of this world.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXHHtib4xR
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhurnhw2ryk
According to what I understand, this world have abundance of gold, It’s almost like dirt here, so much so that if I were to filter the water of Kobe river, I would fill up a 1 litre bottle full of gold scrapes in 5 hours.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMWBYpQtZe
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa4GHsbuvg
Platinum is where the normal trading starts, and silver is rarer than platinum here. The most Rich people store riches in the banks here known as Commerce guild, store riches in Adamantium, orichalcum and Uru, I find it hard that the metals from myths on Earth are real here.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjI3cWlXKS
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXTtkRp93A
“So your hammer is made of….” I ask but Warzheil almost immediately replies as if proud of his hammers.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMldG3OXiQ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76dHDNpVpU
“They are made from dark Uru, A metal so rare that if someone knew that my hammer is made of them, entire kingdoms would come after me.” Warzheil says.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kooKdF2LJ
“So you are a rich Dwarf?” I ask almost drooling.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAa2I6EbYE
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg04qTeimh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kpp6ULUin

“It’s called Titanium and wait You can smell metals?” I ask with skepticism.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkVTNRoldQ

20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhSuJH3Cir
“Not in trade?” I ask, confusion evident.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31toSzFnyd

20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdytNWPcMeo
I remember about the book I found in the forest when I woke up and search for it but can’t find it so I ask Warzheil about it, thankfully he saw it coming out of my torn suit when I was asleep on other side of the river so he hands me the book with a curious look, but suppresses the urge to ask about it.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWVo3gnGaU
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y6wxkVnZK
I open the book and this time it lets me open new pages, and it seems like I have missed some of its page.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItfuaqnFAQ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9wMPQrUKc
I read it for a while and realise that it’s the outline of my journey so far, to clear my suspicion I turn another page but the blur effect occurs again, I sense it more clearly now, but this time instead of going back to the previous page again, some text appears on the page.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ5e6g1L9c

The next sun rises, Warzheil tries to wake me up, but I feel like a sloth, and in my laziness half of that day pass, heat on its peak as the sun hangs high in the sky, I finally wake up from sweating. I may need to find a place to take a bath soon.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDwWU2lZu0
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zLvwEGNZP
“Oh, finally awake, huh?” Warzheil says as I get out of the small tent.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXJend7hAk

“The plan to get into my forge, that’s what you missed.” He says as he hits on a very good looking Talwar on his makeshift force area. But then he cools down the sword and puts out the fire by pouring water in it from a bucket near him. The fire makes a hissing sound as it dies.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1nHPvMJFF

“I can’t believe it no matter how many times I see it, no wonder it’s so expensive. How about you sell one of those and make me a dark Uru weapon too?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NKiGNjKic
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGpTYuEdVZ
“You should quite talking small when you are in presence of THE legendary blacksmith, lad. How do you think I got to know Drax? I am the best blacksmith of this era. Drax also had to admit when he lost to me in weapon forging duel. I have 7 ingots of Dark Uru ingots, dozens of Uru and few hundreds of orichalcum and adamantium ingots in my forge. I may look like a smelly old dwarf but I can buy kingdoms if I want to.” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ61dBuxTMl

“Thats one way to flex your wealth I guess.” I say, In a flat voice.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr5y1ELG3O

“You are boring you know that, Lad, At least act to be excited. I worked my ass of to get them. Don’t you want to be rich? If it were someone else they would be out for my blood right now” Warzheil says in a plain voice too as he unfolds a big map.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGceuIaVfX

“Don’t get me wrong, I have always liked money, it makes life much easier. Maybe I should earn lot of money and then retire somewhere peaceful? But you and I both know I can’t, not right now at least. I have 2 contracts to fulfil, one is Geolard’s and another is Drax’s.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30ayhe5jBt
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlg1x9Dwaox
“So, even my riches cannot bring out your greedy side huh?” he says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc04QzAKrY
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sCwalSJ5g
“Nice try, Oldman, but you don’t know me enough just yet, I wouldn’t be THE legendary Hitman on Earth if I succumbed to greed. Smart people die winning, wise are those who win against life’s baffling choices.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuVqWR20Jm

“Ok, enough philosophy, now look here.” Warzheil says pointing in the map.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFbGA4YVyp
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4AgupbpzX
“This right here is the Northern Kobe Forest” he says pointing to the top centre of the map with a sketch of a forest.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOymrIW9QeT
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18EDlOmcQm
“We are now in the southern Kobe Forest, where the Demon Lord have Goblins as their allied forces.” He says sliding his finger to the right of the map across the sketch of the river into another forest on the other side of the map and stops his finger on some kind of hammer and anvil that is drawn over the map manually.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIgKHjd3O9
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdTyGhKw4s
“And this right here is my old forge, not many days ago I was almost captured by the goblins.” He said20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T32kqk2W4
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3UMhdiVTh
“Why?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeiEfKP8yy
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r99s9jC0u
“That’s what they are, wandering tribes of ever polluting green shits. The demon lord wanted me to work under him to make weapons for his generals and armies, but thanks to Drax’s letter I prepared to leave just when the goblins started their capture on my forge, maybe he knew it was going to happen so he sent me the letter on the right time. But I ended up screwing up big time and the goblins chased me for days.” Warzheil explains.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBL0zxrmO0

“I am starting to understand your struggle now. So, what’s your plan?” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqRd5reVAB
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJ0XODSPTy
“You said you were an assassin didn’t you? Make a plan, Unless you suggest going with me, head-on against hundreds of goblins, mage goblins, hob goblins, champions and their King. Who knows, maybe even the lich is there.” He says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVUr8hIrTL
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvwokMKrwS
“Speak of the devil.” I say as I see the lich approach on a smaller dragon, a wyvern to be exact.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdI9F39aco
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ5Tb7OOou
The lich sees Ronin and Warzheil “I feel like ripping the very flesh off their face, but that damned Dratnir soldier was Insanely strong, so much so that it destroyed my army, even wounding my mana core with his light and cosmic attacks, I tried to claim it as my own minion, it exploded, I am in no shape to fight these two monster, especially this Dwarf, he is cunning fox, hiding his powers of lighting authority.” Lich thinks20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvWjmPGMZh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOu0YNdGea
“I must alert the goblins of their arrival.” As he passes near ronin and Warzheil he gives them a menacing look. Which doesn’t bother them in the slightest20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUQiH0Fmy7
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFAnlPsyjF
“Hey, Bone head, what happened to all that confidence? Fear we may kick your ass without the help of your army huh? Or did that Dratnir Soldier do it for us?” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1KkszfMZT
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6lQo7SDQv
“It won’t be long before your head hangs on my dragon’s tail, mortals, we will meet soon.” The lich replies in a domineering voice, but we both know he is just scared.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaeRWPcFK0
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9cpTWeERt
“The Dratnir must have given him a run for his money, I guess he had to abandon his army on the bridge to find a wyvern in the forest to fly all the way back here.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1NcrDAkX5
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUABDZ78Uf
“Or maybe that wasn’t his complete army.” Warzheil speculates which raises more questions in my mind.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGfUEhoQD0
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK3Ixdzx7Q
“You said that the goblins are under the demon lord, which means….” It clicks in both our minds at the same time.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oJgmXOYCk
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEB4igefca
“Shit!, he is going to alert those green vessels of filth.” Warzheil says with impatience evident in his expressions as his eyebrows curl inward, tensed.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimBq4Cqefy
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRtbKTqEGV
“Do you have any other way we can get inside the forge?” I ask Warzheil
“The owl… the owl is worthy of night.” I say as a though drifts into my mind. Maybe that riddle has something to do with our next step.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLxkrihH8N
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6YFHwq6gZ
“What do you mean by owl? We don’t have time for this Ronin, take this seriously.” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9g7lJPJqb
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgPyIoH2bb
I run back into the tent and bring out the book, tossing it on the table, opening the page that contains the text.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwPUdLujeN
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKP0GiPcHl
“See here” I slide my finger over the text “The night fall will deem the owl worthy--its prey will have no path to escape--but the night houses many threats--beware beyonder” I say which confuses Warzheil.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBEH3RESsH
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDDSKTRHpU
“Owl worthy of night, which means that an owl can only hunt at night.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3Jn0OQxLN
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzj4YvyxW9
“Well, you aren’t wrong, goblins see less at night, if that’s what you are implementing.” Warzheil explains.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEGS27K5Dl
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6gi4PR366
“That’s great…now” I slide my finger further on the text in the page “The night houses threats--beware beyonder. Which means it’s referring to me, as I am beyond this world. And the night houses threats, which means that even though night is our chance to strike, it might still be risky.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IkBIzKiLS
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETiAVoQzNG
“W-wait, I don’t understand. What you say makes some sense but, why are you sliding your finger on an empty page? Is this a habit of yours I should be aware of?” Warzheil says, which turns my excited expression to a confused expression.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWArmOJKjPM
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8DkIiThpQ
I close my left eye and then the text starts to disappear from the page as my right eye focuses.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFD4NR2KNt
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDkPwEJwKg
“This book is not normal.” I say as I slowly let this discovery settle. “Or maybe I am not normal.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkIB1yTho6
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnpohEM0jd
“Lets get you examined later, but first, I have an idea.” Warzheil continues20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcpOoqWArX
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaq94PbS3w5
“There is a secret passage under my forge” Warzheil continues “Its gates are made of adamantium, it can only be unlocked from inside. but I think your spear can melt it in a few minutes, we can carve a way in. but we need to start now as at night your blade will be visible.” Warzheil says.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia9FKuxHi3
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXyLENoeaz
“That’s the best plan I have heard in a while.” I say “Why stand here then? We have riches to retrieve, lets go.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rrtvpKLw3
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6o0bM7zp93
“Ok, I will do this, whatever you find there, you can keep it, I don’t plan to come back here anyway.” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTtuJvg6mX
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R6aq1Uij3
“You speak as if we will go our separate ways after that.” I ask20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkirHAViBh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk1vhfXWjd
“It’s your loss if you don’t want that stuff, I have a strong feeling that we will not be going our own ways anytime soon.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwHC412KDB
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM9j52Bek1
And so We prepare to infiltrate the forge.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwfpeR3XTV
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzAkfnnmJf
We move through the forest after finishing packing our camp. As we go deeper, a fog starts blocking our vision.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKDiZUTp2C
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qZaSuXHnu
“Don’t worry about me, I know all corners of this forest, I have been here for a while.” Warzheil said20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeMKOIAn6A
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfAZXw75jK
“Thankfully I won’t need to hold hands with you since I can see the path with my left eye.” I say20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhdTXPuBey
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcawRZdYwuB
My eye is very convenient, although it feels very uncomfortable seeing things I don’t want to, the wobbly energies in the air makes me feel nauseous, but I need to get used to it soon. I can see the outlines of everything in my line of sight even in this fog. I was seeing normally when we were not in the forest, which must mean I only see different according to situations and see mana when it is dense or unless I want to see it. I don’t understand how this even works but as long it keeps me alive, its an ability.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOUOUmhByh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaDMolOyhD
Nestled into the side of a rocky hill is Warzheil’s forge. The building is surrounded by goblins and hobgoblins.
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSvhJOkyVs
“Hey, won’t they detect your mana?” I ask Warzheil20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77ihSFxmoE
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9aM9sKN9X
“Don’t underestimate me, lad. Only the Demon Lord can detect me no as I have supressed my mana.” He says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqAVhijUpG
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EM6yhER7Y
“That’s reassuring….hmm” I say but I make a questioning face as I think about possible scenarios where the plan can break down, or succeed. Thank fully Warzheil also had a map of his forge so I have a raw Idea of what I can do once we are in. spear won’t be an option in there.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBWpoumq4I
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS9qf7yTyy
We talk amidst the guttural voices of goblin-kind carrying faintly through the air. Fires burn in large pits outside, with goblins working tirelessly on crude weapons and Armor.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3CKdQ4Jgi
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm4pQWQQW1
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFttbGNpADD
But that’s not all, I see some skeletons as well, which means that they are alert now. But something feels off, the security should be tighter, then why isn’t.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sjOX2T1uQ
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJfBjUPMUN
“Hey, Is the Goblin King friends with the Lich?” I ask Warzheil as we are in the bushes.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLwogxXtDT
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i75WGlnlH
“As far as I know, the demon lord’s generals don’t get along with the lich, he is like an outcast to them, even though he is the most loyal to the Demon Lord” Warzheil says20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXWgsvWTfh
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUimQVSZVxz
“That must be it. I don’t see any prominent figure here. Which must mean that the king with his champions must be in an argument with the lich. I have seen this happen in my field a lot, even when I disguised myself.” I say “Even if that’s not the case, we cannot afford loosing sunlight, we need a way in by night.”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd4CidGKYp
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUv8ljmJ0Q
“You are right. Lets go, there’s our ticket in.” He points to a large pipe beneath the forge, its bars glinting faintly in the sunlight. “It’s a water outlet I built as an escape route, but like I said, it opens only from the inside. Let’s hope your spear can cut through the bars.”
We approach the gate but suddenly I see 2 goblins coming our way so I yank Warzheil against the wall.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5T35b5UFz
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQxl8sfi1X
Warzheil looks like he would cuss me out anytime but I signal him to keep it down. I pick up a pebble slowly and throw it in the opposite direction of the goblins over their head which distracts them.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyflT45usSH
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGYCxmeL9m
It’s a good thing that goblins are idiots. I take the chance and kill both the Goblins using my plasma spear which cuts though their tiny necks, is it me or do the spear feel small in my hands? I normally don’t miss with my spear but even back when I fought the T-rex, it felt uncomfortable. It looks like I have grown in size too.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ak0opNCfg
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQaIFMJeSt
“Idiot, we need to get those two into the sewer too, the goblins may detect their blood.” Warzheil says.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo1NcYcooM
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWvYdWT9iX
I kneel by the pipe as I put the goblins near me, and activate the plasma blade of my spear. The bars are tougher than I expect, made from a mixture of copper and adamantite. It takes a few minutes to cut through them.
“Hard, isn’t it?” Warzheil says with a smirk. “I debated using adamantite for a water outlet, but it’s proven useful.”
“Just keep quiet, old man. You’ll get us caught,” I hiss as we slip into the dark, narrow tunnel.
“Don’t boss me around like my mom. Show some respect for your elders,” he retorts in a low whisper.
I roll my eyes. “Did you finally go senile?”
“You little—”20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlck9kr8Ni0
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAstbRx4yn
“Shhh…” I cut him off as we hear faint footsteps echoing through the tunnel. We finally got in, I put the goblin’s body in the sewer water and slowly head toward the voice that’s getting louder.
Two goblins appear, their torches casting flickering shadows on the walls. Moving swiftly, I dart ahead, my spear slicing through the air. The goblins barely have time to react before they collapse, lifeless.
“You really are an assassin through and through, huh?” Warzheil asks under his breath, impressed but unnerved.20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlcKM3jBYq
20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHWwQoWtvg
“This is the most crude I can be as an assassin. You haven’t seen me in action just yet oldman.” I say, trying to flex20Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhEPXqAdey
