Stan knew that there was more to what it meant by that and he believed it would explain further without being asked to do so, thus he waited for it to continue. Just as he had believed, the system continued, but this time it was with an instruction.[It is high time you join the others in the shelter.]“Not until we are done with our talk.” Stan proved stubborn and the system had no option other than to do as he has said after all, he would be the one to surfer the punishment of not obeying it immediately.[I can not possess up to two hosts on any planet, therefore once you are killed, then it is the end of my existence here on Earth as the planet will fall or humans will have to devise another means to defeat the aliens which have never happened before. This better explains why you are wanted dead by all costs.]This was strange to Stan as he found it difficult to believe because that was not how he viewed systems before now. He had every tangible reason to argue with Adoth on that,
The helicopter landed in Washington DC, at another elite academy where advanced training takes place. Here in this branch, the parents of most of the elites that survived the attack in Columbia branch came to pick up their wards and also those whose children were lost in the attack also came to get proper information about the attack and why the masters were not able to protect the kids under their watch.The aliens had not entered Washington so the story which they were hearing was not clear to them, they found it difficult to believe as it seemed to be a lie having no proof. The crowd in the academy was massive and many were looking very angry because they have lost their children and it could not be taken lightly. “Here comes the low class I have been telling you about.” Guzman Ronald said to the parents of Rudo Walid that were there to pick up their ward but was told about his death. “Don’t tell us that this rascal is responsible for our son’s death?” Mr Walid said to Guzman bec
Trisha Graham got to meet with her mother who was there to pick her like every other parent had come for their children. She first hugged her mother because it was almost two years since they last saw each other. Trisha was among the few students that never went for holidays since they joined the academy, but with the news of a lot of children dying in the academy the parents of these children had to create a chance to come get their wards and ensure they were still alive.“Oh my baby,” Jeanette Graham said as she wrapped her arms around her daughter Trisha.“I miss you so much mom.” ”Me too. Thank goodness you are alive. Your father and I have been so worried since we heard the news.”“Is he here with you?”“Of course, he is the master of this branch.” She answered but further continued as she sighted him coming their way. “Oh, here he comes.” Trisha quickly turned and ran to hug her father, Isaac Graham. “Daddy…”“That’s my girl. Hope you are not hurt?”“I’m okay. Daddy you need t
As Xiang and Ling were approaching the vehicle that will take them out of the academy Xiang's phone rang and it was Mr Ming-húa, Ling's father who was calling so he handed the phone over to Ling because he was one that wanted to speak with his father.Ling was so happy to receive the call. It seems everything we are working for is in the favor of Stan. "Hello father it's me Ling.""Oh son, I'm sorry for not being able to come pick you myself, please forgive me." Mr Ming-húa said over the phone."It's alright Father, there's no time for explanation." Ling quickly replied because he had more to tell his father. This was rare to Ming-húa, he could not believe that his son would forgive him so easily for such so he had to ask to be sure Ling was not messing with him. "Really?!""Of course." Ling answered.From that response, Ming-húa knowing his son, was able to tell that Ling wanted a favor from him so he asked, "I know you very well son, what do you want?"Ling first of all smiles befo
When Stan heard this from the system he was so disappointed, for the first time since he started receiving instructions from the system he had never been on a different page with it, his human conscience would not let him watch those people die, so he chose to neglect the instruction given to him by Adoth irrespective of how those elites hated him and wanted him dead. Xiang wanted to continue driving the car after the forceful stop, but then the aliens shot at them, hitting the engine of the car so that it could no longer move again. “Oh shit!!” Ling exclaimed as he knew that would stop their escape from the academy. All this while they had been running away from the aliens and he believed that was the same thing the system had told Stan and believed Stan was going to follow its instruction. “No more running.” Stan said as he came down from the car. He chose to work by the first and main mission which Adoth had told him which was to save mankind from the aliens, so he believed h
Trisha looked out of the hiding spot as she heard the sound of those aliens drawing near so she said again to Ling, “We have to move, they are coming this way.”“No, I can’t leave him there.” Ling was still talking about Xiang who had died, so it was very difficult for him to move on immediately.“Think, Ling think. This is not what he would want you to do. Think of what he would tell you at this point.” Trisha began to speak some sense to him so that he does not bring death upon himself.His eyes were already flowing with tears, Ling was shading the kind of tears which he had not shade I before in a while. The last time such a tear was in his face was when his mother was diagnosed with the terminal illness which has not been cured up till date. With the advice he received from her as he thinks of what Xiang would want him to do, he wipes his eyes as he looks in the two possible directions that they are to take in order to choose the best part to head towards.Seeing that he has come
Now that Stan and Nassor had gotten the weapon they seek and were trying to protect the people in the academy because they had gotten some experience on how to kill those aliens, they began to fight back as they patrol the school environment with Lisa Perry who had just joined them, but in this course, they realize that most of the people in the school were nowhere to be found, those who were seen were the ones who had become casualties of the attack.Even though they had secured valuable weapons and were putting them to use, they still did not push hard on the aliens because only the both of them could not attack the aliens in their numbers. They were wise enough to only shoot when the aliens were few in a particular section and anywhere they were much, the three of them would just sneak past them so long as there were no human beings worthy of being saved there.After walking the academy as they made possible kills of a few aliens for two hours, Stan then realized that the academy i
While inside the room all by himself, Adoth spoke to him again, telling him his status.[Task failed. Results are as follows. XP level: four. Strength: twenty five. Speed: thirty six. Agility: Seventeen. Stamina: fifteen. Stealthily: five. Vitality: fourteen. Technique: nine.]In the midst of his mourning, this was the worst thing he could hear. It amazed him why his abilities had to be downgraded instead of being upgraded, so he chose to quarrel the system. "Adoth can you explain to me the meaning of this thing you are saying? Last I remember my speed was at thirty nine."[For every failed or disobeyed task, you will be downgraded and there is nothing you can do about it other than to accept it as it is.]"You know what? I'm done. You can leave my body now. I am no longer interested in saving mankind. I refuse to be your host." Stan said in anger though he meant some percentage of what he said.[That is not how this thing works. I found and chose you which you also gave me your conse
The news of the aliens evacuation was nothing to be hidden as all radio and television stations carried it across the globe. Nations began to rebuild their structures which were destroyed by the aliens, and the world kept mentioning one name, Stan Gibson, hero of the world, because he was at the fore front of every battle against the aliens. The leaders of China, America, Russia, United Kingdom and other nations which he fought besides, had no option than to sing his praise along with the praises of his team Ling Tingzhe, Nassor Dimka and Trisha Graham. The war against aliens made the whole world to realise that humans are the same irrespective of their race and status and could be able to achieve anything they set their minds towards.It was no longer a wonder to the world how a low class could lead the so called elites and military to victory over an enemy which was far stronger than them.Each continent honored the heroes, awarding medels of different kinds. Even though that was o
It was very early the next morning and Ling was lying on the bed with Trisha, covered with a mattress as she rested her head on Trisha's arm.Trisha was in a confused mood, he did not know whether he was to be happy or he was to feel guilty because he had just slept with his father's wife on the night after their wedding.After some time, Ling noticed his quietness, and then she looked at his face as she felt that he was not in a delightful mood. But as she looked at him, he smiled with joy and it was not pretentious because he was really in a happy mood.Yet that smile did not stop her from asking. "You are so quiet. Is there anything bothering you?"He wanted to hide it but he could not since he had trained himself to be very honest and sincere and it would be very difficult for him to change in that aspect. "I feel guilty."Then she repositioned as she wanted to know why he was feeling that way. "Of what?"He was amazed that she was not feeling the same way as him, so he had to tel
Leaving the room of King Nassor Dimka with the claim that she was going to her chamber, she came some blocks away from Nassor's room and then asked a guard who was on patrol. "Excuse me," she draws the attention of the guard.The guard was amazed to see that the new Queen was still wandering around the palace, so he said to her, "My lady, are you still looking for the chamber of his majesty?" He asked this question because it was known to him that the King had called her to his room, so he thought she should have been with the King. "Ermm," she stammered. She had not known her way around more to even know where her room was and it would be embarrassing to ask the soldier to direct her to her room because she knew according to tradition that she was supposed to spend the night with his new husband. So she thought of the best thing to cover up her wandering around the palace. "Actually, I'm coming from the King's chamber, I know it's that direction." She pointed the right direction to
At the end of the wedding all who had come to grace the occasion were returning to their various homes and kingdom. Ling got the chance to speak to her father before he left since she might not be seeing him again for a long while or even forever.As she hugs King Stan goodbye, tears seem to drop from her eyes causing Stan to be baffled because he had seen smiles of joy on that face just some while ago. So he asked, "What is the matter my dear?"From the question she then knew that she had let herself too lose, so she hastily wiped the tears that dropped from her eyes, wearing a happy face again, but it was obvious this time that her happiness was not genuine like what it was earlier. "It's nothing father. Just tears of joy." Even though he knew that she lied, he did not care, as long as his kingdom was free from the attack and domination of the dragon king, he was satisfied. "I am happy to see that you are happy. Trust me, king Nassor will take good care of you. There is nothing to
It's been twenty years since the death of the Queen of Ocalis, leaving her husband, the dragon King Nassor Dimka to be very brutal and dangerous, as all he sought was to rule the entire world, so taking over Kingdoms and dukedoms had been the only thing that gives joy and rest to his soul and the dragon in him.This continued until he came to Kingdom of Erellan, ruled by King Stan Gibson to do likewise as he had done to many other Kingdoms before now, but there he saw a young beautiful damsel, Ling, who remained him of his late wife and mate, Patricia, so he found it difficult to take his eye off her until she had left their presence after delivering a message to her King. King Stan knew that Nassor had come to take over his Kingdom either by his succumbing or by force which would be his death, but from the way he saw the dragon King stare at Ling still she left, he had an idea that came into his mind, so he said it out immediately. "I see you have interest in my daughter and I could
In the evening hours of that day, the clouds filled up and then began a very heavy storm with lightning striking down to the surface of the earth, and the storm destroyed a lot of things in the entire kingdom; such as the crops of farmers and some buildings which were not rooted strong in the ground. *******But Foster reversed the question, "First of all, let me introduce myself, I am Foster, and these are my sons Fanser and Einar." He pointed at them respectively. "Why don't you tell us your name, so we would know what to address you?""My name is Claus, I am from Alaska and I believe this is just another rural town in the state." The man said."Well, Claus, as you have said, this is a town but there are no such things as rural towns or whatever the second or third type of town you may know. This is the kingdom of Pell and the place you mentioned, that is, Alaska, we do not know any place or kingdom that goes by that name in the world." Foster said."Oh no! You haven't heard of the
Early the next day, by eight o'clock in the morning, Miss Linzi, Kellie, Andy and Eddy came down from a cab that just dropped off at the front of the Alaska Regional hospital. Then Miss Linzi walked in with the three kids, and as they got to the reception, she said to nurse there. "Please excuse me." "Morning ma'am, how may I help you?" The nurse asked Linzi. "I received a call from the hospital last night, and the person that spoke with me told me of a young man who was brought here from an accident scene. We are here to see him." Linzi said. "Slow down, could you be more specific, as in what is the name of the person you are here to see?" The nurse asked. "His name is Claus." Linzi answered. "Are you his wife, ma'am?" The nurse asked. "No I am not, but this is his daughter." Linzi said as pointed at Kellie. "Please can you direct us to his room?" "Please ma'am, we would like to know you are related to Mr Claus." The nurse said. But Kellie said on her behalf, before she coul
Hours later, Miss Linzi was seen as a cab dropped her and the children at their compound, and after she had paid the bills to the driver, she led them to her own apartment to rest."Miss Linzi, where did you say our mother went to? And why hasn't she returned from work up till this time?" Andy asked after they must have spent a couple hours and the day was about to pass by."Oh sweetie, I am sorry that your mother did not tell me the reason why she had to stay out late today, but I believe that there is a good reason and she will soon be back." Linzi answered, as she set the dining table. Then she said to the three of them, "Come on, why not have some dinner while we wait for your parents to return from work."So they left the sitting room and came to dinner, but just before they began to eat, Kellie said, "Miss Linzi,""Yes Kellie." She replied as focused on what Kellie wanted to say."Have my dad called you again?" Kellie asked."No he hasn't." Linzi answered."Can you please give h
After that he picked up his phone and then read the message which came earlier, then he looked at his wristwatch and looked at the phone to see the time when it came.Then he exclaimed. "Oh my gosh! I am running out of time." As he started the car again and zoomed off.Soon he arrives at the compound of Mr Jaxon, his boss who had been disturbing his phone since."Finally you are here." Jaxon said.And to Claus' greatest surprise he was not as angry as he spoke through the phone, but he still had to apologize. "Good morning sir, I'm sorry I could not make it as early as I suppose.""You came at the right time, I just finished preparing." Jaxon replied.Then Claus became surprised because he had been hurrying him to come down to his place.Noticing the amazing countenance of Claus, Jaxon said. "I know you are surprised as to why I was disturbing your phone earlier?""Of course, and I would have been at the station by now if I had taken your instructions." Claus said."Oh! I knew you wou
