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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzli7EPGEQ

“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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDmzDweuDy
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JSBEn2nEA
“What is this colossus you are talking about?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAtQS3iJbG
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1TcB98ntm
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWodZsOMtOD
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzw9V1J73Z
“Start running Ronin lad!” he shouts as he bonks my heads.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlc6U3kpHV
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAlK5neiuN
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67HO0t99BK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRHCRgWlV5
“I will guess, something was holding up this bridge and now that the bridge no longer has power, its collapsing?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOR89kwJwd1
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aPPCudHu2
“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzkG3b7Cco
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwtE5kjtZI
“Hmm?” I ask with a grunt as I run.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNnaJ9W9nY
“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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D25RU1yg2

44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rqiYe3cKj
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhUuVT5lmU
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yxbaevs47
“I don’t think it will chase us because the bridge has lost all its power.” He replies and continues44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H5GGjEkZj
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98E67uG1sP
"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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB9Nl3MpPA
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv86N98AsM
A one way travel huh? The current of this river did seemed powerful even though that gap near the supply station.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalCFdqUei8

We have been running for hours now and now, finally, I feel like I can sleep soon.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HhlV3ddFl
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7hZtif4Wb
“Oh! There the exit, finally! I feel very hungry.” Warzheil says as I hear a grumbling of his stomach.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGlDG3NnR0
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIIOZRXbgt
“Oldman did you fart on me!?” I ask enraged44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOaNZuBf76

“Hey, I can’t help it you know, don’t you feel the nature’s call too?” he says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcvxCGKYo3
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc2R1TblJ1
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx7e6Gjis8
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJpGN483v5
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 forcibly44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRHFCH4NJ8
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEVZJ9YyJa
“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNisNv3aTyi
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaEeBf65tb
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf9XSfyF2L
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrWPCKsmjQ
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMge5KKn1d
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHMQeZb79M
Warzheil sighed. "That girl doesn’t know the truth. She thinks her mother was human."44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kZNMkL6RV
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDSLrWOQXi
Ronin raised an eyebrow. "And?"44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ2ixXydM6
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CsV6w6oBn
Before Warzheil could finish, his mouth snapped shut. Like some unseen force had sealed it.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYdZ60aC5M
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLNXAVkYX7
“I am guessing too much but … its Ethis right?” I say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYP9xVLeOK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PMQm4Yasc
Warzheil nods with an angry expression, current rising on his hands.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11rzDWdT6J
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjw0g6hgYl
“Yes, it seems like she doesn’t want you to know.” he says when suddenly the flow of wind feels different.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ziXPIelY2
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlxyIFGOP6
We turn our heads towards the woods where a light starts to form into humanoid shape.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8WJKFwgLZ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiq2gv1TnP
“You broke your promise Warzheil!” the light speaks in a voice with a mix of distress and frustration.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsshtTwnPWs
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TDboKcqVV
“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 sarcasm44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF11Eb5wKxC
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhszXQqQEQ
“Do not be mistaken Ronin, I came here because this dwarf broke his promise.” Ethis says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aFPdyUsJo
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefHzaleDH2
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cR1dX6JzL
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAw1raIKY5
“Stop! Stop at once Dwarf” she says in a threatening voice44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRf2AyyrGL
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoway5SrseT
“Gloria thinks her mother was human and died when she was born.” Warzheil continues as if unbothered by Ethis’s presence.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWUqJOeRun
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2skfwJqxo5
“That is enough, Mortal!” This time she seem pissed off as she summons a spear of light and throws it on Warzheil.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39C2vZGbf5
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGXluiFdd2
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4BcYM4LPw
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y6mjoqbeP
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfff0Pzknc
“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?”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfAT6RrGgp
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW4MgGsf2R
“Anomaly, do not stand in my way, unless you want to make enemy of us gods!” she says, her anger palpable.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxFGq4mSYw
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08QDPKmOzA
“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 ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6xkK6jVDQ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdFMDrI5Al
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLleGiLUgC
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPk4L0IoWE1
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjdCpTO0nl
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cy5V0V0eW
“Don’t speak as if you know anything!”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tXbWSSbLJ
She says then pauses as If forcing a breath.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp8YVBNGT0
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbTdSwNSP5
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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEi0RT4Eup
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JpT2UXQ63
“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."
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gZ1P3OmlL
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOJr1YjDJp
Even gods fight in this accursed world huh?
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEgMagaiFv
“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 ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DwtqsKZ8x
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnNg1mpZQD
There is a silence, Ethis doesn’t say anything on my last comment.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu57XICI7sh
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU5xhlxZaI
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEmTGoVFQ6
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEinEMKIge
“What? You are telling me that god is real?” Warzheil shot back in surprise.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPV9BfrNWK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyo3XAmmxd
“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.
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9UJoC6P6w
“What do I get by letting you, who ditched my devotee of whom I am supposed to be god of?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UnFCpSCWy
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgxkiX6Ua9
“I-Right, I will tell you when your sister or her family is in danger.” She says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4GqhcxpIP
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSPCbkPWhC
“You know trade. What do you say Oldman?” I ask Warzheil44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSUs3zFRnO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rTRrXYOOT
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWdudYz4OU
“This is for Gloria not you.” He says, on which Ethis steps back under her veil of light and nods as she disappears.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvrdAYoMEN
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjpLxrgrQa
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.
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DrBsByFQ7
“Right. Nature calls.” He says as he walks towards the woods.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQTaoX17s0
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8eh0iuBXS
I waved him off, leaning back against a rock. Finally, a moment to breathe. Or so I thought—until the trees shook.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelJMp54QYI
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtBhuOe7VV
“Hey! At least leave the pocket with the things in it.” I say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwdPNf8ja4
Warzheil throws the pocket at me, which I almost drop but manage to catch it.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfwzAGMxap
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlXGwM4dye
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdj8eFy9Zs
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8bx01xKn8
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnWcE9O0rQ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8JziUetEp
“Is that a freaking Tyrannosaurus?” I ask as my expression distorts into the same as Warzheil.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMUcI5fyOe
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUInHi7MY2K
But this one seems different then what I know, it has armour like things all around its body except some parts.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcZCQiA2kW
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM1CCHG4Y5
“It has Earth element, my lighting only tickles it, sick lizard ambushed me just when I finished my stuff together!” he says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnJy0oGZhz
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADzL7hJnmN
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxt9JKWLJd
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlklnU0PA3
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUI40m1wQFR
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7fFQ8HQL4
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SAAVoAY8B
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjcHW7Io0e
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVjMW4E6mi
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj6fsaT7nd
The beast tries to stomp me again but Warzheil throws his hammer which staggers the beast.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZLiSL6HVu
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3HmzSXTcK
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwp2tXk4DMj
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ageBMBB6Q
Bull’s eye, no, Dino’s eye.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi2VFRS65y
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBp17DDAW0
“You knew eye was its weak spot?” Warzheil heil says as he approach me.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7eQfXx7pG
I stare at Warzheil at first, then as he gets closer I cannot control and burst into laugh.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLNLJewa34
“Hey lad, listen…”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksTl1K12Pc
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDWscuZSJr
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpl2oJaBsk
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOysaOoOsIX
“*laughs* I need to note that down. *Laugh*, its been a while since I heard a good old joke.” he says laughing44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXU1arIxl2z
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ464ElxbhLW
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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCBjrqNYkO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqodVDZAxS
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXKrbGElnv
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3KPdnOI50
“How did you even fit things in that small space?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnNhbs8PN1
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YKpTXrXBc
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42lIaIX5BW
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWZT3qOnHb
“You do realise I have no idea of how that’s supposed to tell me its worth right?” I say giving him a stare.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfxkqnLYno
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsofarHvzV4
“*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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUJnq8qUOl
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctG9G548cB
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HfeMbIWwx
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkeXtAQrkR
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9AlMcRgNE
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65lLpdaN0E
“So your hammer is made of….” I ask but Warzheil almost immediately replies as if proud of his hammers.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz42h7pBaD0
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ibBsI3phO
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a8g1ylN3H
“So you are a rich Dwarf?” I ask almost drooling.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUSEYWXBHs
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G7HMxeXdn
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7KHrxQD9X
“So, if I were to sell one of my pockets, I would get 2 Dark Uru ingots for them.” He says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIoK4aiPik

“It’s called Titanium and wait You can smell metals?” I ask with skepticism.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0GViMxSSv

“Wait, what about diamonds?” I ask.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLBh0qiBGs
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AeMLkhImr
“Oh those? They are used to make mirrors, ornaments, tools, mage’s staffs and many other things.” He says as if it’s normal.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBTBCRMpgH
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ0TTDwvvJ
“Not in trade?” I ask, confusion evident.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRopOBY5Kf

We rest for half of the day, I try to process the ridiculousness of this world.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lUlxSczX4
It is almost everything that Earth isn’t, full of resources, flora and fauna.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooGXFhZHLf
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIcd9KjVlG
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOjBoRW2IH
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga2ibDadcb
I open the book and this time it lets me open new pages, and it seems like I have missed some of its page.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuI3Ty2g3C
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeLz7ddB1n
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcXQWWPDDe

44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULCLrG3kPC
I rub my eyes as I turn the book into a head rest and sleep, I don’t have the mood to translate some encrypted riddle. Maybe my Sanskrit has dulled over time. What does and owl have to do with being worth of night.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kAyEdIuLZ

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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM59kz32eK
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm59OW5SRuB
“Oh, finally awake, huh?” Warzheil says as I get out of the small tent.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf5JhgcO1y

“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN61kStOci
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CzqWlj5hT

“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 ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKqXCydD4X

“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8E2LAkJewz

“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLe1jarHb7

“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 say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FiSr2cWao
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVeOX8F7Ga
“So, even my riches cannot bring out your greedy side huh?” he says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS7F2Gn7ir
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbCErlkzKt
“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 say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87nPGQTT4m

“Ok, enough philosophy, now look here.” Warzheil says pointing in the map.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mlty5dc0r
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuCKh7pL3d
“This right here is the Northern Kobe Forest” he says pointing to the top centre of the map with a sketch of a forest.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7InRbEjUcS
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRusq3lT6to
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyo1DpWEHb
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KRKIudYZ3
“And this right here is my old forge, not many days ago I was almost captured by the goblins.” He said44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPQ1l8v62M
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDgRKfrB84
“Why?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9liDUWapD
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdw1IK6y1m
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKeZz1vfg0

“I am starting to understand your struggle now. So, what’s your plan?” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmATDXpfqYQ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7RSwqR1UW
“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoUft1E5yZ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOnm1KWhn0
“Speak of the devil.” I say as I see the lich approach on a smaller dragon, a wyvern to be exact.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg28B8cDkkV
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VOzwZIVlI
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 thinks44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhY9f3iH0n9
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RivRbvBHm
“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 slightest44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZwSQ6qILZ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3JSiErCxy
“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5QJli8oDh
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNcf2akdjD
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerf0g6QXwO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJtlo58QDT
“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 say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mguwpfSdf
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKevvBk4TE
“Or maybe that wasn’t his complete army.” Warzheil speculates which raises more questions in my mind.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZMA4YKtbE
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJmPdDB6Wj
“You said that the goblins are under the demon lord, which means….” It clicks in both our minds at the same time.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8vKRcSzgk
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVErSTSr1Yb
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu3M336yBu
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnwb7zmova
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zyEYQr5QI
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfXOzZdLY2
“What do you mean by owl? We don’t have time for this Ronin, take this seriously.” Warzheil says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjvl6v3bPY
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOkHyzA2ES
I run back into the tent and bring out the book, tossing it on the table, opening the page that contains the text.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC39kZyRtmO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKnViWSWfi
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsrJmSROZn
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicccpK5dDf
“Owl worthy of night, which means that an owl can only hunt at night.” I say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOgkoJygTD
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeNCsqGfz4
“Well, you aren’t wrong, goblins see less at night, if that’s what you are implementing.” Warzheil explains.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwjV8ZkMv9
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSBYffs7jf
“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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJRVgg90DJ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFO7JKiYXa
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTWtYMrL4B
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTh3SKHtW9
I close my left eye and then the text starts to disappear from the page as my right eye focuses.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbwJs4GifI
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASy6qOX1A2
“This book is not normal.” I say as I slowly let this discovery settle. “Or maybe I am not normal.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc4UxjjQYP
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZnUf7UDjI
“Lets get you examined later, but first, I have an idea.” Warzheil continues44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflOURLVk8c
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCvwBcYLEZ
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzNBIZAFHl
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFSnXN3maA
“That’s the best plan I have heard in a while.” I say “Why stand here then? We have riches to retrieve, lets go.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NVFkpiTW7
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmufgmK7lw
“Ok, I will do this, whatever you find there, you can keep it, I don’t plan to come back here anyway.” Warzheil says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I5JgQfi9M
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHWKTV8hcH
“You speak as if we will go our separate ways after that.” I ask44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGxxdpadOP
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTtRQzZ3RG
“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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLqz1smh0B
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNXqXKGPEc
And so We prepare to infiltrate the forge.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuIj3kQBxQ
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L3WaUzMvj
We move through the forest after finishing packing our camp. As we go deeper, a fog starts blocking our vision.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6oNLPEjqU
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1XuQN6BCf
“Don’t worry about me, I know all corners of this forest, I have been here for a while.” Warzheil said44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yYNYK8wbk
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mc8lHYSwz
“Thankfully I won’t need to hold hands with you since I can see the path with my left eye.” I say44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYxGytrpsT
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8I2C1bi9MB
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jUAG8wb39
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jlIQwy6Em
Nestled into the side of a rocky hill is Warzheil’s forge. The building is surrounded by goblins and hobgoblins.
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcuI0fcZc5
“Hey, won’t they detect your mana?” I ask Warzheil44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYhHZfLXYB
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawTt7tt3mS
“Don’t underestimate me, lad. Only the Demon Lord can detect me no as I have supressed my mana.” He says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaqyk49uX9
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySngaoiEMh
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrBjvl4yAO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYSFYSxNxm
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zDaqWZR2m
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUulL6SDti
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J6NCCjn4Y
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkMgNOG3le
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwiMSpV5T4
“Hey, Is the Goblin King friends with the Lich?” I ask Warzheil as we are in the bushes.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyVzC7fxk6
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8CwSS2cu1
“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 says44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9XJCuVouh
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyxeV5I7QM
“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.”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkumviWTIb
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIixesQHuN7
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzagXyqYlO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMa18lfCJz
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKKsQ9I3h3
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0X9QppS9V
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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKM7ajgFxq
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm84qQMr0t5
“Idiot, we need to get those two into the sewer too, the goblins may detect their blood.” Warzheil says.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ97WCJVHgY
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbYWGpMKr4
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—”44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBHRZRhUoO
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM6Eh1fOA2
“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.44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23HFEjqdzu
44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPu1gAIWHl
“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 flex44Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡink5vwbPJc
