I have lead him away from my city. Normally this will be kind of disrespect will not be slide off by those their stature. The they will have surely off me with my head , Im thankful he not like those.He may have understood something,but he choose to not meddle with it. So I can only lead him away or he will be pulled into it, and it will be my fault.I led him with what he wants, he wants knowledge of magic, of the workings of the wolrd. And I lied to him telling our city have not those. I eve made my subject to deny him of those knowledge. I fooled him to leave Bridgestone.When I first saw him , I know in an instant he is a High Noble. My people may have seen like he was just a noble , but no.He is far beyond that.A high Noble can stick out like a lantern on a dark night ,even if the try to mingle with normal people like us. It may sound strange ,but we just be able to tell them apart from the normal people.Is it the his bearings , His Attires,His speech,Or maybe his magi
" Is Caldisten far ?"Asked Lucas to his coachman Rett." The journey will take about six hours in full speed, but we still need to give the horses rest and 'ome food, else we will be needing to walk and reach there in the morrow!"answered old Rett.He is short middle-age man but his beard made him appear older.This also made him appear like a half baked dwarf. Rett used to drive his carriage for transportation on nearby city around Bridgestone, but because of the recent beast tide , he decided to move to a different city until everything are back to normal again.The lord got heard about it and asked him to bring Lucas to Caldisten . The lord even given him triple of what he can earn in a month, so of course he complied without second thoughts." You are real s' me in , arent you lad?" say he" Heard you fell a beasty over a house high! With all that magics and all , people call you the 'Hero of Fire' , and you so young! I still remember when I was young I do also want to fight
Lucas woke up groggily among the rubble , he then tried pulled himself out of it but he found he can't " What ?"He struggled hard but found out he is stuck and can't pull himself out of it. ' Magic!'With an idea he cast his earth manipulation skill and push away the rubble aqua from his body. " Arggh!!"As the rocks fall, his body then was attack by sudden pain. It starting form his leg an duo to his upper body.He convulse on extreme pain as more of the rocks was push away.After a few minutes, he then slump down , breathing heavily, sweat and tears running down his face." What the hell!?"Lucas look down his lower body to check what kind of injuries he have acquired for it to hurt like that.He was stricken by panic as hew saw his mangled legs as it oozed with crimson blood. The rocks may have acted as a pressure that prevent him from bleeding out but after he removed them it got loose and now his blood is flowing likea fountain." What do I do!?"Lucas panic as he felt the
The cave is dark an damp,making Lucas carefully fell his steps before he take them.He can see the rock formations making up the cave but he can't see anything else.Even with his fire ball, the surrounding is still pitch black. Thankfully,Lucas have the dark seeing skill ,so it help a little on his journey. He upgraded the skill to Dark Sight which allow him to see the things around him, even though they lack colors , it have help him from making any misstep.The cave is goes deep and it's dimensions change constantly, it goes narrow and narrower and then it suddenly gets wide. sometimes it's ceiling goes high up and some times it goes down to the point where Lucas need no crouch yo pass through.The damp walls have a some kind of vegetation that fells like algae , this was weird for Lucas for he thought plants needs sunlight to grow , but he just brush it off with ' It might be magic' reason." Another fork?"Lucas have encountered forks on the cave system as he continued forward.No
' I need to retreat!!"Lucas turn tail and run back on the stairs,but his retreat was cut short as he saw the skeletons crowd on the foot of the stairs.Lucas fired fireball to clear them, but before he can rejoice, he saw the skeletons break out the ground.First only a dozen show up , then more , and more appeared all around Lucas.Lucas can only run while casting as the skeletons break out the ground where he was standing.*Ting* He swing his sword around but he found that the bones are surprisingly hard and his sword almost do no damage . Without using skill it was ineffective. As he force he way back , more an more appeared like a tide of white wave. Some of the strikes from the skeletons even graze him.' I will be cornered here ,I need to t find another way'Lucas abandoned the his idea of getting to the stairs as he look up and saw skeletons coming out of there too.With the only way out from there is the small opening, he is good as dead if he continues to charge there.Wit
" Is there really nothing here?"Lucas asked inwardly as he search around the next ' floor'.After the horde form above, he find it strange that nothing here, as it seem a little anticlimactic.Don't get it wrong , Lucas doesn't want another of that horde, but his vigilance have been on high alert ever since and he find it a little uncomfortable.This is a strange place, as Lucas can infer. The most strange thing he find about Thai place is the absence of SP I killing the monsters. For Lucas knows that killing monster will surely help someone on some point , but this situations seem to break his understanding of SP.He tried to wave it out his mind as he focus on navigating him self on the cavern. He circumvent boulders and climb some , finding a clear path way on this cavern was proven to be impossible.Due to the previous two staircase Lucas ,infer that there should be another one on the end of this ' floor' , and maybe also a stair up.After climbing a tall boulder Lucas was elate
The cavern was huge ,but Lucas didn't know that's it was this huge. After his battle with the mutated Zombie , He then run to the stair that took him to another floor down.The monster in here there skeletons again.Mutated skeletons of different varieties bombard him with magics and some of them are even armored.Lucas was able to get through them relatively easier in comparison to the other floor.While the skeletons knights have armors , they are in worse conditions and was penetrated by his attacks pretty easily. The mutated skeletons can use magic, as it form a black core , from the corrupted mana.Having it's core on its chest cavity, it has exposed it weakness and therefore allow Lucas defeat them by aiming at there core.Afterwards ,the next stair brought him a wide space in which both zombies and skeletons appeared.A couple of mutants appeared in which Lucas target first and then proceed to charge forward to the next floor.Having the experience of fighting the same monsters o
" Let's see what you got you bone!"Lucas didn't let an opportunity pass. He weave forward to get a clear vantage of the general skeleton.He traverse the wave of undead while maintaining his focus on the general skeleton who now is trying to gain distance from him.' It will bombard me with those bade light again if I let it run away!'Lucas know the urgency of the situation, he will surely be overwhelmed by the undead if the general skeleton snipe him out of his range again.* Boom*Dodging a strike from a mutated zombie, he then jump up it head using it as platform to leap above the wave." Got you !"With a scan on the general direction,he immediately saw the general skeleton.He raised his hand and aim it at the general skeleton. ' Just like a fireball 'Glow of the healing lights appears on his palm, Which he then condensed into a ball with his mind." Eat this you relic!"With his focus still on the skeleton he throw it with all his might ,sending the ball of light at the gener
