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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rKg6Zputd

“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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyYlSiI9Lo
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QtzQtdjza
“What is this colossus you are talking about?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKxqWvhl9s
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY912EnMs5t
“I will tell you on the way, 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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PJXQ3PU50
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FuEr6esQA
“Start running Ronin lad!” he shouts as he bonks my heads.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMKQvzKHey
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBwy2h6rJK
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvFj3FYSAJ
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuopHlrRpG
“I will guess, something was holding up this bridge and now that the bridge no longer has power, its collapsing?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pzznfkzqj
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQR7rTrEcO
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhdtEGpeCS
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGmo12BYYi
“Hmm?” I ask with a grunt as I run.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4ssJCowi0
“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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahDrBiaPAV

187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd95SdAS5UV
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0XMhLCI3H
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Be0szyyZI
“I don’t think it will chase us because the bridge has lost all its power.” He replies and continues187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh6WEY9EVS
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp4G98ClUn
"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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON5ocCsOBi
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHSNNYOlwP
A one way travel huh? The current of this river did seemed powerful even though that gap near the supply station.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv0aqsdrvy

We have been running for hours now and now, finally, I feel like I can sleep soon.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2MqPJxLuI
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fGlqgYzEO
“Oh! There the exit, finally! I feel very hungry.” Warzheil says as I hear a grumbling of his stomach.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4IQtwEMoN
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mzJ9oJtKo
“Oldman did you fart on me!?” I ask enraged187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDHOP2p5wo
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX3rEecoKa
“Hey, I can’t help it you know, don’t you feel the nature’s call too?” he says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dEmldxBFR
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL7mFCGMxN
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmCtzQRSKk
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoKK33nCZf
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 forcibly187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZJmH4mGi7
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrmnpB4ctk
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwTzZ8Kbae
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ml5DTLiBz
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WN9KpAQ2P
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH9t9tq07A
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjZ35wxDOo
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZFzqPkdTt
Warzheil sighed. "That girl doesn’t know the truth. She thinks her mother was human."187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q5g6NikHb
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxyRvt5rom
Ronin raised an eyebrow. "And?"187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3UMsv3eY1
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgfTrOTSFZ
Before Warzheil could finish, his mouth snapped shut. Like some unseen force had sealed it.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rAmu40JuA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmc2zD5f2MP
“I am guessing too much but … its Ethis right?” I say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQUe8e7Ant
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYZxmiESD1

“Yes, it seems like she doesn’t want you to know.” he says when suddenly the flow of wind feels different.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRQJZ1lWQv
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36smrdkpZE
We turn our heads towards the woods where a light starts to form into humanoid shape.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ5Rb1fZLD
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AD6rVVcLN
“You broke your promise Warzheil!” the light speaks in a voice with a mix of distress and frustration.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBL8794oJz
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuXMP9iAC6
“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 sarcasm187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZK8WJumIO
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRq9vtD5pW
“Do not be mistaken Ronin, I came here because this dwarf broke his promise.” Ethis says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfFpyOTdCK
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5erSK9eWJf
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62Yu3GterV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEU4KKlbmQ
“Stop! Stop at once Dwarf” she says in a threatening voice187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6hcF8NwEW
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4RjlW6ndm
“Gloria thinks her mother was human and died when she was born.” Warzheil continues as if unbothered by Ethis’s presence.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRJQrC5CXI
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ksQWiY9T9
“That is enough, Mortal!” This time she seem pissed off as she summons a spear of light and throws it on Warzheil.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2cKoQ78Ui
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF09l20IO1k
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYr8wFz1TAj

187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWtykykLg4
“Anomaly, do not stand in my way, unless you want to make enemy of us gods!” she says, her anger palpable.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk93df8EEY
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmalt60w36C
“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 ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiEEGbDeWI
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8NtT6vJC5
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHuQwD8aR3
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSGYcsz5ot
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbma19Q2kh
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkgH1Kikyt
“Don’t speak as if you know anything!”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sg5SkFMyK
She says then pauses as If forcing a breath.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYucnJ8cvA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlPTH65XnI
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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahQo4wZ50q
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28b2Yg3bud
“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."
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6299pcxJah
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQFG4E9u12
Even gods fight in this accursed world huh?
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6kSGGSsjl
“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 ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiBcZmmXXn
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXYAaA6qK8
There is a silence, Ethis doesn’t say anything on my last comment.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdKPepTZsY
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrrvRl0B1N
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJw6LKNnV6
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJTx8zaYmM
“What? You are telling me that god is real?” Warzheil shot back in surprise.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe6K2ApBxB
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69VflnizLm
“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.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEMw0zsxwZ
“What do I get by letting you, who ditched my devotee of whom I am supposed to be god of?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNw9ynvTSr
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8rF6JcEOv

“You know your trade. What do you say Oldman?” I ask Warzheil187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhixCvPXMGt
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1X496S2AO
“Suit yourselves, I am in foul mood.” He says
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefSzv1S49p
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.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23oIf6BHra
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.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBkGICaMZ9
“This is for Gloria not you.” He says, on which Ethis steps back under her veil of light and nods as she disappears.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmNHn5TZzW
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzlUDQARjD
The air felt heavier after Ethis left.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBVKtER4I7
Warzheil didn’t speak, and Neither did I.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz97092C5G9
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.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudz15Sd82Z
“Right. Nature calls.” He says as he walks towards the woods.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzMYaOGNva
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IIZOLGRH6
I waved him off, leaning back against a rock. Finally, a moment to breathe. Or so I thought—until the trees shook.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIUYwHmssi
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFBtguH9pL
“Hey! At least leave the pocket with the things in it.” I say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufmvm84YMI
Warzheil throws the pocket at me, which I almost drop but manage to catch it.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCSyiRGLLK
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeyFAX8W87
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3WSQNEfj5
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI47FgzYEv
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3odLtmzQk
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeoW2vVVMX
“Is that a freaking Tyrannosaurus?” I ask as my expression distorts into the same as Warzheil.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY2LnQZusB
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFO3phaNHN
But this one seems different then what I know, it has armour like things all around its body except some parts.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVSLnMIeXS
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG4cBSj6az
“It has Earth element, my lighting only tickles it, sick lizard ambushed me just when I finished my stuff together!” he says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnFsNQz0WM
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktSRGvXgRS
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP2hnpKIPD
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBuqD5wkB1
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD6Qr4cJxs
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDin7ABiAw
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUklcdDFpL
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPnUQiw1s3
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV0habS3YF
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHqRSKq92U
The beast tries to stomp me again but Warzheil throws his hammer which staggers the beast.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3SRCYCGd3
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19hahbJZ0D
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv6j222W88
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe59SGVuWUX
Bull’s eye, no, Dino’s eye.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sziYaAhQ1
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihCS1bGjCt
“You knew eye was its weak spot?” Warzheil heil says as he approach me.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJJxx2HD8P
I stare at Warzheil at first, then as he gets closer, It gets harder to hold back.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCQ4UbeZcX
“Hey lad, listen…” he speaks
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle42lOqP8I
I start laughing “That dinosaur totally fell for you just by watching you take a dump!”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS99eFhY2Zu
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46DQ4qYm6C

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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbpUkcMXFX
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphrMGLvJmn
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThqvmHcwc2
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9XNs4lLJ9
“How did you even fit things in that small space?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUzuiWLmgZ
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uDJBGhSkf
“You might not know it, but these pockets are so rare I could make a pair of hammers out of the metals I would get out of selling even one of these” He says almost flexing something I don’t understand.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMavoZbNFR
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcekcd4Pbb0
“You do realise I have no idea of how that’s supposed to tell me its worth right? Don’t you guys trade with gold?” I ask giving him a stare.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYriUPLV2y
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTlyVZHiRk
Warzheil let out a long sigh. “Listen up, lad. Gold’s everywhere in these lands—so common it’s barely worth the trouble to pick up. If you spent a few hours panning the Kobe river, you’d fill a bottle with gold flakes. That’s why nobody bothers trading with it.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuRddalGmT
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkimXWCnT9
“Trade is mainly done with these” he says taking out a rectangular metal with the same symbol like my eye.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MD08HUeBi
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYmoXiVnk1
“Doesn’t that look like my eye?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpuw81ft7e
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEV6ULNMQGy
Warzheil observes the coin and then looks at me silently187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡligNXZ93G0
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lazfYJ6P1
“You are right, they are exactly same. How is that possible?” he asks187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3b1hv4zRj

“Don’t know.” I say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFGzBaXGPm

“Anyway, these are called Globets, they are the main currency used in kingdoms and the cities and towns near it. I have only 3 of these, 1 of these can buy you a 5 acre farmland.” He says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSOGVBHKfa
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiQeCJcm4Y
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJiXHjChpB
He scratched his beard, voice growing more animated as he warmed to his favorite subject. “Platinum’s where proper trade starts. Silver’s rarer still. But the real wealth? That’s kept in the Commerce Guild vaults—Adamantium, Orichalcum, Uru. The kind of metals you’d expect to find only in legends. Most folk will never even get to touch them.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSzkeVaEpS
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y3VwXtB6z
“What about diamonds?” I asked187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwDRFjo48T
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP996TXcDK
He shrugged. “Just stones. We use them for mirrors, jewelry, mage staves. They’re everywhere—no one bothers trading for them.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr3DVKLtBJ
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYGeciAUL8
“Wait, So your hammers—what are those made of?”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJB3oXXK1p

I whistled. “So you’re loaded?”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvukT6Ta2VY
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGaWItEaCo
He grinned. “If I sold one of my storage pockets, I’d get at least 5000 Globets.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYpX1KJWjs
I glanced at my spear. “What about this one? Its made of a metal we call Titanium on earth.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9yG7zLkDf
“Give me that.” He said taking the weapon as he stepped away from my anti-magic barrier.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNKGc0qKR3
Warzheil sniffed the air around the spear as his I saw mana swirl around it, his eyes narrowing. “We call this metal Collosium I can smell tell by its mana conductivity and smell. This is a fine weapon. I don’t think you should sell it.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNnKRqRvEw
I raised an eyebrow. “I wasn’t going to sell it, and wait, You can actually ‘smell’ the difference?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wdEDeurv1
He gave me a look. “Of course. Any blacksmith worth his salt can. We use mana ofcourse.”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNw0340DgFT
I hesitated, then asked, “What about Diamonds?”
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc6PW8h4cK
He waved a hand. “Just stones. We use them for mirrors, trinkets, mage staves. They’re everywhere in the wilds—no one trades for them.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CNu0lrTEh
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUZ5Rai9RN
Warzheil goes on to tell me about how commerce works in this world.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3euAU5w99
According to what I understand, in this world, main currency is Globet, found in dungeons or traded on toll plaza of the Dratnir Bridges in exchange for metals, Gold’s is as common as dirt—Kobe river’s full of it. Platinum, Silver and titanium are used for smaller trades while Adamantium, Orichalcum, and Uru are used for bigger trades within the nation or to make equipment and other things. Most folk never see those metals in a lifetime. 187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVE2OE6XWM
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbYXlj3pdL
It’s almost laughable—metals I’d only read about in old stories are just another part of daily life here.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBSGNFaHzG

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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGDpEqoSSE

I open the book to distract myself and this time it lets me open new pages, and it seems like I have missed some of its page.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExPVGV6mnr
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrjnOhem9W
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPDAOvTHjA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFOUCiXP2w
“The night fall will deem the owl worthy, its prey will have no path to escape, but the night houses many threats, beware beyonder.” Is what the text says on the book.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnR4p6kZ83
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQC9o0YAwY
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 owl have to do with being worth of night.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZnmpuamej
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOqAvOOX6U

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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DxuKtBwLz
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem6rQkEK9M
“Oh, finally awake, huh?” Warzheil says as I get out of the small tent.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPLYa4oKMt
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnEAndTTME
“*Yawn* so, what did I miss?”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUqYER1A9D
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUNJDhZN1K
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VQZPW8yac
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dNtMUCjFv
Warzheil starts to put some of those things back in his pocket.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88CW7BCVdF
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7OhirV3WB
“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 ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUggUkntV6
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWL8TSC17D
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EiQq1hpug
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rd2BH1bEL
“Thats one way to flex your wealth I guess.” I say, In a flat voice.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo6zl7e30B
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTOtkygJbY
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa0gTw4YRV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCpQxidsxv
“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 say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbphwlYJRuD
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgE9d5Y5KbH
“So, even my riches cannot bring out your greedy side huh?” he says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmky0kxSWap
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3c5wDGL9a
“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 say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GFOUF0pMB
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z7x9WOo8g
“Ok, enough philosophy, now look here.” Warzheil says pointing in the map.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFGjNyFQYv
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBu4ruNwMC
“This right here is the Northern Kobe Forest” he says pointing to the top centre of the map with a sketch of a forest.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7E6u7rLkF
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTkmgZSpEE
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfVZa78fs7
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdjsoelX1i
“And this right here is my old forge, not many days ago I was almost captured by the goblins.” He said187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEluRqGO9Go
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtykuVN4vH
“Why?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdyroQSeN3
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrFd7oC4fd
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdpYPXDuJs
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJrngaqEtV
“I am starting to understand your struggle now. So, what’s your plan?” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQt1ClATOg
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPS9o1qTKq
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbgYqck4ff
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZXSZQ9Ori
“Speak of the devil.” I say as I see the lich approach on a smaller dragon, a wyvern to be exact.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL5DMig0uf
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiSYtKfNoX
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 thinks187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFV6Vm59xr1
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjU6ig9K9o
“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 slightest187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEmto88t2u
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXNCXgUQYG
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgRdc9TBGt
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0vXTgg9Ab
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9IcLIStyu
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdgQm7Atsf
“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 say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnrBQVa9MH
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bj0rrwcTf
“Or maybe that wasn’t his complete army.” Warzheil speculates which raises more questions in my mind.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg03pR2csf
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmphLBXKNN4
“You said that the goblins are under the demon lord, which means….” It clicks in both our minds at the same time.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvshqRarTFx
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2pT23yF3B
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnMbs52fty
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSCev8TAEt
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8P8kD3Z2z
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyhcSEdcRD
“What do you mean by owl? We don’t have time for this Ronin, take this seriously.” Warzheil says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E96KNDslO
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29BN0JcnQb
I run back into the tent and bring out the book, tossing it on the table, opening the page that contains the text.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXcY2YSiBe
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVyYq4dBfB
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhU5lo8XjV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyi3SZPxEux
“Owl worthy of night, which means that an owl can only hunt at night.” I say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIcMQTclGp
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATXQj5Taip
“Well, you aren’t wrong, goblins see less at night, if that’s what you are implementing.” Warzheil explains.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtmq61IVC9
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqY0NfoO8A8
“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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pHZ9w2FuE
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGvIX9wcia
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqZYKTYo7v
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOyoLa4tgX
I close my left eye and then the text starts to disappear from the page as my right eye focuses.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJnDAGfyul
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdvIAe8Nxz
“This book is not normal.” I say as I slowly let this discovery settle. “Or maybe I am not normal.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO9RHgSxCv
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xv9qGrJ5A
“Lets get you examined later, but first, I have an idea.” Warzheil continues187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBThB6r4AI5
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkDlCfuZHL
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWDc6BAhdI
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGMKGfNQVE
“That’s the best plan I have heard in a while.” I say “Why stand here then? We have riches to retrieve, lets go.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqStOETnrHR
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMZyXWmIJb
“Ok, I will do this, whatever you find there, you can keep it, I don’t plan to come back here anyway.” Warzheil says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmoEkKnSgs
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN7QshHOjS
“You speak as if we will go our separate ways after that.” I ask187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dlHYIP6xI
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOtbTR28O8
“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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1obeDpLx3X
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTmlvWTF3E
And so We prepare to infiltrate the forge.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ9HZ7ZJmN
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS7SPoYeNy
We move through the forest after finishing packing our camp. As we go deeper, a fog starts blocking our vision.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AxRxiCs7X
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR118kJguyq
“Don’t worry about me, I know all corners of this forest, I have been here for a while.” Warzheil said187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOmrTnkPXV
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK0Gp1vG4O
“Thankfully I won’t need to hold hands with you since I can see the path with my left eye.” I say187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ufNNl6A54
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWd7GfXIbd
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMuDdmtsrA
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL7x9OMuIQ
Nestled into the side of a rocky hill is Warzheil’s forge. The building is surrounded by goblins and hobgoblins.
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUAAZwytsl
“Hey, won’t they detect your mana?” I ask Warzheil187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJcpok0U2H
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobWHQCuCTU
“Don’t underestimate me, lad. Only the Demon Lord can detect me no as I have supressed my mana.” He says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebvUSmvPBE
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIp5CHP0fR
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSl7RIBbZN
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbPWf4E8nr
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTroUpkLPkX
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDtN9qM86a
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG5RvkOQGN
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm13rk25IkN
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5P6zsGy4Xy
“Hey, Is the Goblin King friends with the Lich?” I ask Warzheil as we are in the bushes.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqhgLJYtHx
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP3vXbjx8p
“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 says187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKiGetkeQt
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5luWRZl1Zt
“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.”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg7stKLLMP
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxrzzhNQjV
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfXn6gZi5k
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LWPr1pKhh
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoOQbImB2K
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0bV0usSF0
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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYV8UxTn77
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUbC6KIEQ7
“Idiot, we need to get those two into the sewer too, the goblins may detect their blood.” Warzheil says.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK5iRll8w8
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar4QvDi1nD
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—”187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCvQMpqna4
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvoSwo9tCj
“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.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl6YcoD4ez
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ08GADLiGe
“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 flex187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1z1BAtfk4
187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtBDUzAPEX
“Hoo? I will be watching then.” he says with sarcasm.
