"Hmmm!""Let's go then," Madeline suggested and the four of them went back to their cave.Derek sat in a cross leg position to meditate, while Aesir practiced some of his moves with Gina. And lastly, Madeline was busy thinking about the words of the old woman when she had entered the room.Meanwhile,shortly after Derek and his friends had left the shrine. In fact, barely seconds, the Chief came visiting the Priestess. If Derek had seen this, he would have been surprised. After all, the moment he had left that hole, he had totally forgotten the way there."Is he the one?" She asked as soon as she got to the cavern.However, the priestess did not even pay her any mind. All she did was remain staring and the two floating lanterns far up in the distance.But the chief was not angry at this at all. "If you are not going to tell me, I'll have to find out myself. She was about to leave when the voice of the Priestess reached her."Why do you even doubt?" She asked without turning back.The
However, life and the surprises it always presented was never always truly fair. He was nor sixteen years of age and on one particular morning, he and some of his friends went deep into the mountains to search for herbs.Unfortunately, a snow storm started and they were unable to return in time. In fact, they had no choice but to pass the night at the house of a villager.By the time the storm was done and they returned to the temple. All that laid before their eyes was a mess. The the big temple doors that had welcomed his arrival at one time had now been turned into broken wood. Like lumber that was being prepared to be dumped in a fire.They ran into the monastery compound only to find their friends and family dead. It was total destruction.He checked and found out that the monastery had been robbed by bandits.As he and his friends searched for survivals , he found that old man that had pretended to be a beggar laying with an arrow to his chest. Blood bathed his clothes and one
Derek could not help but shake his head in pity. The man's name disappeared from the list of names under his rule.Derek could not believe what he had just seen. Even as the man's name slowly disappeared, Derek could feel his large amount of pain that went along with his regret in the large amount of anima the man produced before he died.Derek was not the initial writer of this story. Although he would have not minded changing it. He had been pretty occupied as of late. Then again he could clearly see that this man had the opportunity to make better decisions along the way. Yet he had become the springboard for the circle of revenge. Then again, Derek was just a whisperer ranked Writer. He currently shared this man's story with other Writers.And unfortunately, he listened to the voice of a whisperer that made him make terrible decisions.This was indeed a terrible story.Derek pulled himself out of his cultivation. It was already time for a meal. A guard had brought some food over
After the Chief's daughter was gone, Derek and his friends resumed their activities like as if there had not just be threatened. With the kind of things these guys have been through, non of them would actually complain about dying the very next day.Derek went back to his position in other to continue his meditation session. But it was not to cultivate anima like he did before. Rather, it was to reflect on what he had seen from that man's eyes just before his death.At the moment, he was reflecting on the possible lesson that this cultivation session must have presented him.And then the image of someone he extremely hated flash past his mind. This was an image that instantly changed his mood. After all, it was the image of Aaron. Who was the current acting head of the house of Thembeka.Derek hated this man to his marrow. This was after all the Writer that had taken Maria away from him.Just having to remember the moment as her blood bathed his body made him instantly filled with r
Derek had only given one attack that had truly been a threat to the women and they had already taken up arms against him.Aesir, Madeline and Gina saw this and it pissed them off. The first woman attacked with the blade from the side, Derek did a side step. However, he was surprised to see that he had side Stepped into another boomerang blade that was coming from another side.He only barely dodged by moving backwards. However, this women were bmnot for any reason going to allow him take a breather, or even so much as find his balance.Now, their fighting system had changed. Derek could see that this was definitely because of the weapon they were now using.Before, When it was a bare handed fight, there did not attack like this. It was usually one attack flowing at a time into another attack.However, now, it was a total style from the previous one.Every attack was a trap that led into another attack. The attacks were now flowing into one another.All of them becoming one big seamle
Derek pointed Milan with the scabbards in hand. "Princess! You were saying?" He gave a teasing smile. "How about this. You give up now and I let you off easy. Hmmm!""I am going to flair you human!" She said in anger. She rushed for him but all he did was doge her attacks again and again.After some time, it was beginning to look almost comical.Derek took several steps back. And then he dropped his scabbard to the ground.He looked at her and pat his chest. "Come and get it princess!" "Ahhh!!!" She charged at him with her spear. Derek did not move and when she came close enough, he side stepped and turned, his elbow hitting behind her neck.She staggered a bit and then she dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes.The guards rushed to help her up. But it was no use. She was as out of it. They had no choice but to lift her up and take her away.As they did, the chief looked at the embarrassing state her daughter had found herself and then surprisenly, she smiled.Derek could n
The chief gave Derek a punch that sent him flying into the distance. He landed terribly on the ground. How ever, he jumped up with a smile on his face. Madeline watching this was a bit confused. Madeline's mind was sharp and although she could see that the chief was stronger, she did not understand why Derek was now been beaten so badly.Meanwhile, Aesir could not help but continually shake his head. As far as he was concerned, Derek was an idiot. A very big idiot.Derek stood to his feet and ran once more for the queen. However, he was beaten back again and again.The crowd cheered for their chief loudly."Do you give up now!? Human!" The chief asked."Hell no lady, am just getting to the fun part." Derek replied as he rushed once more for her.The fight continued and. For a moment, it looked as if Derek was going to be pounded to a pulp. However he always persisted. Over and over again.Madeline and even Gina were starting to get really embarrassed about seeing this. Madeline even
Chief Sasha pursued Derek all over the place with the spear in hand. However, Derek loved life. Well as much as probably the next guy. There was no way in hell was he going to stay and watch himself becomemeat on a stick.Things were getting bad for Derek and one time, he was just a few seconds late. The blade of the spear barely brushed past his face. Leaving a scar on that particular spot."Shit! Shit!! Shit!!!" Derek cursed.There was no choice about it. He had to make double effort concerning the dodging aspect.The show was getting too embarrassing for Aesir to watch. And so he popped up a solution."Hey, Bro! Catch." He threw Derek a sword. Derek was beyond obliged as he dived the sword in the air. This sword was Aesir's rune armament sword."Finally! Something to ever out the playing field" Derek thought to himself.The next time an attack came for him from Sasha, hhe blocked it with the sword.The two weapons meeting one another created sparks in the air. A lot of sparks.*
