A frustrated hero Swamp
The hero did not know what to do, he was very disturbed by this scene. The adventurers were fighting among themselves, it was detrimental to the mission, besides he didn't know who were the ones being controlled by that man. And I couldn't intervene in any fight just because.I didn't know what to do either, but I thought of something, but the two elves who were with us had to help us in this.I went over to where one of the two elves in the group was standing. He had long brown hair, he had a helmet on at the time. I looked into his eyes to see if he was being manipulated, but luckily he looked at me like a normal person would.-What do you want," he asked me.-Why are you fighting with that adventurer, if you can beat him easily. -So that no one will do anything to him, he is one of my group mates.There I understood that I couldn't intervene in that fight, I could only hope that the elf would think of helping me.He cast some kind of spell and immobilized his friend.-So what do y

I woke up hours later, I was quite tired and my body ached a bit. I was sleeping for a few hours. The elf had created the bridge to that mountain. There were huge columns of ice between the swamp, to hold it up, plus he put railings on it to keep us from falling.I had just opened my eyes and was a little scared to go up there. It looked very high and it was easy to fall, and the ice was slippery. I saw the hero chatting with the hero on that bridge. Even he was hesitating to go over there. The way from here to that mountain was quite a way. Maybe 4 kilometers of travel. It would take a few hours to get there. Several of my companions woke up little by little and began to see the bridge. Like me, they were surprised and were trying to analyze it.I got up from the floor and cleaned my armor. The grass and sand was sticking to my armor, although it was not important now, the smell of the grass was a little uncomfortable for me.It was getting close to nightfall and we needed to decide

It didn't stop raining all day, despite the difficulty I kept walking towards even though I didn't see anyone around here. My hands already hurt from dragging them along the railing. Even though I had my gloves on. When they appeared they broke and I couldn't do anything. I was surprised to see that it was still raining hard. I didn't want to keep walking, it was suffocating, water was pouring down my face, being in the rain was suffocating me little by little and I couldn't stand the cold, besides my legs were already hurting from repeating that movement so many times. I sat down on the ground and rested in the rain. I noticed that the bridge was slowly melting. It had sunken areas due to the water and the adventurers' footsteps.I tried to get up so as not to perish there in the middle of nowhere, or fall into that dark valley. I could only shuffle my feet little by little to reach the mountain that looked a little closer than before.[...]I arrived at the mountain and I was very

The next morning we headed back to the ship. The campfire was not something very interesting for any of us, just a simple meeting. That was to be done to clear up a few things, but when we were close to the ship we saw more ships coming into the bay.They looked like a group of pirates at first glance, but then we noticed that they were adventurers like us. The hero went a little further ahead and wanted to talk to them. We kept some distance from him, as we were in no hurry to talk to these people. We just wanted to rest a little and return to the mainland. We watched him go to the front of the men. We could not hear anything of what they were saying, we could only hear the movements of their hands and waited for him to explain to them that the mission was impossible. The wizard had us under surveillance and set traps to scare us. I hoped that he could convince them and that they would not suffer an absurd death in this place, but apparently he did not succeed, because they continu

I woke up in the wee hours of the night, my body ached a little and I got up from the bed where I was.There was the hero sitting with his arms crossed waiting for me to wake up.-What happened? I asked him-That wizard got scared when he saw that you were dying. Even the boat moved, we thought some monster would come out of the water and kill us, but out of nowhere he unmoored the elf to heal you. When they finished healing you, he was already gone, we don't know how strong he was, but in a matter of seconds he kneeled us all down and his men tied us up, we couldn't do anything. It was very strange, something like that had never happened to me before. In the end we were able to save our other wounded companion and we continued on our way. I don't know how you earned the appreciation of those wizards, but thanks to that you saved our lives.-I only won the favor of one, the other cast a spell on me, but thanks to this sword I was able to free myself from it. I just found out that ther
A frustrated hero Recruitment
The next day I went in a caravan to Altamira, I needed to get there before the battle started, as I knew it was almost impossible for them to win this war. After knowing the link that Schlange had with the wizards. I was even surprised why he had not started the war earlier. I was a little uncomfortable with this situation, but it was my duty to help because I could not let that kingdom become stronger, so I could never defeat them, besides in Altamira I had already secured part of my life, and I would not let anyone take away what I left as an old man.Luckily for me the conflict between countries in this area had ended quickly and I could leave quickly to Altamira. I only hoped that they would not treat me as a stranger and would not think that I was a spy, since it was logical that something like that would happen in times of war.On the way I had to walk I noticed that on both sides there were weapons and different objects on the ground, all of them were used for the war. There we
A frustrated hero First battle
We spent three days walking in the open, enduring the heat during the day and the cold at night. They were perhaps the worst moments of my life. The food was a bit disgusting, very tasteless and simple. They gave us a somewhat dry and poorly preserved bread, because of the temperature in which we had to walk. It was prepared simply for us to eat and that was it. They didn't care if we liked the food or not, and they didn't handle the food well, so several soldiers got sick and walked with difficulty for a good part of the trip.I tried to eat that, and avoid thinking about what I was ingesting. I felt dizzy many times, but there was nothing to eat, so I had to get used to it.When we were finally able to rest in a fairly tropical area. I sat down on a rock and tried to pull myself together, I was tired from all the walking. I started to regret coming to this place. I didn't think it would be so difficult, I thought we should just fight, but it has been quite a problem to move from to
A frustrated hero Group
The war did not let up when we passed through a village we noticed that there were multiple displacements of people. It was very strange that something like that was happening, but the general ignored that, we had to continue on our way without looking back. I felt something strange in my chest. I had never felt anything like that before. I wanted to stop in the middle of the desolate and lonely road I was traveling. I didn't know if it was a warning that something was going to happen or a normal pain, but I fell to the ground on my knees. Which caught everyone's attention. Although I did not talk to anyone, they all saw me as a hero, someone different from everyone else, and in a way they respected me. Seeing me like that, the whole troop stopped for a few minutes. Nobody understood what was happening.But almost two kilometers away from us something quite strange came out of the ground, it was maybe a giant hundred-footer. About 10 meters long and 5 meters high, and from one moment

End
The next day the few who still had the courage and strength to fight headed for Schlange. The number of people who died against one of the last two wizards was almost a thousand. It was too many, but there was nothing to be done. We had to continue the mission to save the world. We could not let that person dominate us.I was the first to leave, as my wounds were serious and had to be treated by more mages. For those who were there were too exhausted. They exceeded their limits with the magic they did. I never thought we would go to these extremes, but the mission against Schlange had to continue, many lives were at risk.I just stared at the roof of the chariot all day. Zen traveled with me and helped me move at times, as I did not even lift my sword. I was back to being injured again, but it was different. Thanks to the elf that passed away none of those strange things that wizards did could affect me like before. The only thing that worried me and I wanted to know was at what momen

Agony
In the evening hours the city of Ohis became practically a graveyard. The dead were increasing by the hour, the elves did not know what to do. So they chose to make another barrier to avoid a surprise attack.Nobody knew what to do, we were facing an effective and well planned attack. Without the cure for the poison that the Schlange soldiers' weapons had, we were too fragile. Even I could die if one of them cut me with his weapon. As a precaution the bodies of these people were all buried in one mass grave. It was the most appropriate thing to do. The elves took care of that.The rest of us had to help treat the wounded and bury them. No one was prepared for something like that. Many already wanted to leave, they were afraid of dying, but it was stupid. No one wanted to stay, but for now no one could get in or out. We were locked in until the elves made the decision to open the barrier. Maybe in a day or two. The bars were open for people who wanted to get drunk. I didn't want to go

First battle
The days after being the elves' experiment passed. My muscle mass increased considerably with the passage of time, the magic worked miracles. I already looked like a hero, and my chest armor was a bit tight. However, little by little I adapted to my new life as a hero. Unfortunately the time had passed and I had to leave the village. And it was time to meet with the rest of the heroes, and I did not know what had happened in the rest of the world, but it seemed that everything was still the same, since no one sent any message of what was happening.I had removed the annoying beard and the color of my hair changed to brown. For me it was something extreme and too strange.On my journey back to Ohis, I would be accompanied by Zen and two elves from the village. They too wanted to participate in the war, as they had fallen victim to the corruption of their community by being swayed by the power offered to them.There were two carriages heading there, so we would be comfortable and woul

Village
I went back to the village and looked for the old man, I wanted to know what I should do from now on. He had cast that strange spell on me for a reason. However, the place looked quite strange, it was as if something serious had happened. Many people gathered around. I went to the place where the people had gathered. I ran out and was completely surprised by what I saw. The oldest elf was dead, as if she had been killed by the ones who had threatened her on the way out. I had time to catch them. I was on my way to my little house where my things were, but then all of a sudden. One of the younger inhabitants here decided to speak to me.-He was going to tell you something, but he didn't reach, I managed to hear part of what he was going to tell you. You just need to go on as if nothing happened, you will no longer have those dizziness from being with us, you will be a little freer and you will no longer feel sick.What that young man was saying was nothing new, but I was surprised to

Traitors
I got carried away by the taste of the wine and forgot why I was here. Alfred sat down next to me and spoke to me.-I see, so you got carried away by the taste of this drink. You are quite strange, I thought you didn't like liquor.-This drink was addictive, sorry.-Don't worry, just at least you're not drunk, so you can walk and we can talk to the other elves. They'll be up from the table any minute and we can talk to them.I was surprised to talk to him that way, it was so different and weird for him to talk to me that way. As if he was sure that everyone would do what he told them to do. I don't know what position he had in the guild now, but he seemed like an important person. I stopped drinking wine and just waited for the group of elves in the corner to get up from their chairs and talk to them. They were taking too long. It was quite stressful for me. It was getting close to dusk. I would be late for my lodging today and since I was wearing my armor, I would be in trouble with

Destruction of the temple sug
After four days we arrived to Ohis, it was quite difficult for all of us, the weather helped us a lot, the cold became intense and our bodies could not stand it. We simply made a tour through different places without sense, it seemed that we were lost, but luckily we got out of that place and reached our destination which was the city of Ohis, unfortunately. When we arrived there, we noticed that there were hundreds of people from other countries, it was a chaos because of the uncertainty that was lived in that place.I tried to go to a lodge to go in the evening hours.I saw many people sleeping in the street, maybe they came from the invaded countries and were looking for refuge in this country.I went walking through different places until I reached the commercial area where they sold various objects, I was surprised to see so many people in that place. The area was full of hundreds of people begging. Things were getting out of control and the guild was in serious trouble. This cit

Night cold
I left the capital hours later, thanks to some money that Alfred's fiancée gave me, because of my carelessness I did not dare to ask her name, it was something quite unusual and stupid on my part, but there was nothing I could do about it. When I started to think and realized my mistake at that moment I was already leaving the country, I was going through another road to get to the city of Ohis. I went through another northern country. Because going through Schlange was going to war, since they had invaded more countries in the south and made it more difficult to pass through that place. I felt a little bad doing that. The route through the area was difficult, even though it wasn't a mountain. The site was quite a problem. I had to pass through a wet and foul smelling swamp, but it was the only road that could take us to our destination.I was in a caravan that had about four carriages carrying some important people who were also going there. The people in the carriage with me were

Curation
I sat listening to each of the stories of the heroes, I was only interested in the one that had named me, but the dwarf did not talk about me again. They only continued telling stories of other heroes. Until all of a sudden everyone started to leave. They got tired of drinking and it was already very late. I, like everyone else, tried to leave, but I had to do it at my own pace, I waited for most of them to leave the place, but one elf stayed and saw me. As it was only one person I didn't care much and tried to get up and leaned on the table. However she spoke to me.-So you are the hero of the stories? It's amazing how you ended up.I was a little surprised to see that the woman had recognized me. I didn't even know who she was.-I see you don't know who I am. Well I was in the battle against Schlange, but as we were hundreds of heroes it's obvious that it's impossible for you to remember. Anyway, for now I can help you take care of your wounds. The war hasn't started yet, most coun

Demotivation
It was very difficult for me to get to the meeting, I had to walk at a rather slow and tedious pace, while everyone looked at me as a strange or sick person. I just kept walking until I saw where the heroes had gone. I saw their horses in the castle and I went there, I wanted to know what the country was going to do in this war and what had happened during the time I was sick.Unfortunately there were almost ten soldiers at the entrance to the castle. They had reinforced the security so that something like what happened a week ago would not happen again. I tried to get in and talked to those men.-I am a hero, I need to get in.-You a hero? You look like a robbery. You're too strange.The taunts of those men didn't matter much to me, but it was quite sad. I was no longer important and was almost a nuisance. I could only duck my head a little and tried to leave, but one of the guards spoke. -You look like someone, I know you are the hero who was poisoned here days ago. We took you som
