"Back off, Kael! Stop stickin' your nose in other people's affairs!" Audrey stood up for Ansel.Given Kael's aggressive behavior, Audrey didn't want Ansel to become a vulnerable target, so he stepped in to protect him.There was something unique about Ansel that drew Audrey in, and he had come to regard Ansel as a new friend, someone worth looking out for."Don't be a dickhead! I am sure Ansel has a mouth of his own." Kael's face contorted in a snarl, his eyes flashed with anger as he spat the words at Audrey. Even though the two had never fought, Kael was confident that he was the strongest man in the room."Kael, is that what you are called? Tsk tsk, tqhat's such a pretty name for a rough looking man." Ansel's eyes narrowed slightly, a subtle smirk playing on his lips as he stretched his hands out in a mocking gesture.Kael's face reddened as he strode towards Ansel, his eyes blazing with fury. He halted in front of him, chest heaving with aggression.Audrey stood beside Ansel, his
"Silence everyone!" The woman commanded with authority.Audrey, who was excited about being in the same group with Ansel, suddenly kept quiet.They all wanted to know what the woman had to say next."To test your strength and power, you will be allowed to enter a special portal for five minutes. It's a different world from ours. There are several magical creatures and beasts. I am sure most people do not know that a world like this existed. But the government had recently discovered a different world. It's too risky to get there with rockets and spaceships and so a new technology was developed. We will get to go through portals." The woman paused a little and then continued." There is only one portal and that is why only a group of four people can go in at once. Everything that happens in the world is real. If you die in the world then you will die in this world. There are several magical creatures that you would never think about. It's a scary discovery but the creatures are plannin
"Vinny, If the creatures are as dangerous as you say then I think we should gear up with some weapons, just in case they turn hostile.”Ansel suggested cautiously. “I don't want us to be caught off guard if they decide to attack….We should be prepared for anything, especially if we're going to be dealing with beings that are completely foreign to us."Everyone thought that they heard him wrong.Did Ansel just call Vinny by his name?They all stared at Vinny to see what he would do next.Vinny hated when people younger than him addressed him with no respect.The room went silent and they all held their breaths as they waited for what would happen next.“Yes, Ansel, you're absolutely right! The government has also equipped us with top-notch gear. Everyone has the freedom to choose the weapon they're most proficient with," Vinny replied with a smile, gesturing towards the vast room behind them.He stared at the shocked faces of the MPK members and wondered why they were all looking at him
"Wait!"Ansel's voice made them stop in their tracks, they all turned to look at him expectantly.Kael scoffed, he assumed that Ansel was probably trying to back out."Is this the only portal that we have, Vinny?""He called brother Vinny without respect again.""How uncultured can he be?""I am sure brother Vinny is going to kill him this time."They began to whisper to themselves.Vinny found it hard to concentrate especially when their whispers were filling his ears, he raised his hands up in order to shun them.The loud whispers were replaced by a sudden quietness."If I hear any more words from anyone then I will make sure to feed you to the creatures in the other world." Vinny threatened in an icy tone.Fear crept to their skins and they nodded their heads in fear.Who was Ansel and why wasn't Brother Vinny scolding him?The question was on their minds but they had no choice but to keep quiet.Afterall, they were all new members.However some became jealous and wished that they
They found a quiet spot in the area where they could talk without being overheard.After searching around, they finally sat down together to talk about what to do next.No one knew what type of creatures they were and so they freaked out at every little insect they saw.Vinny's reassuring smile helped ease their fears and they slowly relaxed, their panicked breathing slowing to a gentle sigh.Even Kael who had been acting like an asshole was too scared to speak.He sat so close to Vinny because he believed that Vinny was the only one who could save him.Vinny kept a watchful eye on their surroundings, his gaze scanning for any sign of danger as he explained their situation to the students in a calm voice. The other groups must have landed in another position and so they needed to locate them as fast as they could."Pay attention, everyone. There's a village nearby that's allegedly the only place where these creatures are confined. I'm skeptical about the official story, but one thing
"I am sorry, Brother Vinny, " Ami whispered in a hushed tone, loud enough for their leader to hear.She looked up at him with puppy dog eyes. It was the first time Vinny was shouting at her and she understood why.Vinny wanted the best for them all and he would never do anything to hurt them."I am also sorry, it was Ami's fault and I only wanted to get her back. She is so stubborn. Brother Vinny, you should put me in charge of her, I am like her big brother and I can take care of her." Kael said, his voice filled with a fake sense of responsibility.Vinny thought for a while, even though Kael was a jerk most of the time, he had seen the way he always stared at Ami with so much affection.If Kael could keep an eye on Ami then he wouldn't have to worry much about her."Protect her at all cost, Kael, I am going to trust you this once." Vinny said and then took his seat on the cold muddy ground.It was impossible to know the time in this world and he could tell that they were starting to
They all held their breaths, their eyes scanning the area."Show yourself" Vinny said in a cold tone, he placed his hand on his gun, ready to pull the trigger Incase if things were to go wrong.He stared at the frightened group behind him and gave them a reassuring look."C'mon man, I thought we agreed to be quiet." A soft whisper was heard and a middle-aged woman's face came into view.The group of people behind her also showed their faces.Ansel noticed that they all held hands. Perhaps they were scared.Vinny gave a quiet cold laugh, the woman who appeared was his fellow member.She was also an elder in the MPK organization and seeing that the members were safe, Vinny felt relieved.He counted them all with his eyes and confirmed that the group was indeed complete."We are not yet complete Zoey, we need to wait for them." Vinny said in a quiet tone, it was hard for him to keep his voice low but he had no choice.Zoey nodded her head, she had also thought that the other two groups w
Before the young man could utter a word, he was overcome with a sudden and violent nausea, his body convulsing in a relentless gush of vomit.Ansel gave him a gentle pat on his back, it was obvious that the man was just starting to recover.When Ansel saw that the young man was starting to look better, he immediately pulled out the silver needles he used to carry out acupuncture.Gently, Ansel placed them inside his bag with the rest of his medicinal bottles."He'll likely continue vomiting for a while. A harmful toxin is present in his system, but he'll remain stable for the next few days. If my diagnosis is correct, he'll have a brief window of approximately six days before requiring urgent medical attention at a fully equipped hospital." Ansel explained calmly and then stood up to face them all.Vinny had a confused expression on his face. He was shocked to see Ansel treat a man in his presence for the first time, he had just confirmed that what Mr Crowley said was indeed true.Ans
