Jack Harrison heart raced as he stared at the numbers and the strange stats on the screen.Strength, speed,Sonic boom. These were abilities he only knew from stories and video games but not something to describe a real person talk less of him. He also glanced at the words written below such as energy blade, night vision and super cloak. He had never seen such abilities like that in his life.
Jack Harrison tried to touch the glowing screen displayed as he was hesitating before waving his hand through the glowing screen but it felt like nothing but air, and though the text stayed intact. "What the hell is this?" Jack Harrison said to himself as he his gaze was fixated at the door. Mrs Sophie had only left few minutes ago, unaware of the sudden occurrence. Jack Harrison tries to focus on the words in the screen as he noticed that the numbers seemed to gauge some sort of potential and also list of abilities and equipment such as energy blade, super cloak and night vision which all sounded like a gear a superhero would use and not someone like him. But as he was glancing at the names of the equipment he felt a strange aura like a power awakening and surging inside him. He then remembered when he was at the farm and was ambushed by Finn and his guys. Which he ended up receiving beatings that almost ended his and made him passed out for hours and maybe that awaken something inside of him he didn't know it was there. Was this part of his identity or he accidentally awaken something he didn't know he had within him? Or was he dreaming?, all this thoughts was running through his head then suddenly the screen appeared again and more words appeared this time with a message. MISSION: REST FOR 8 HOURS ABILITIES: TO BE UNLOCKED OBJECTIVE: AWAIT FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS Jack Harrison was losing his breath as soon as he saw the word abilities. "Abilities?, missions?" Jack whispers to himself, his mind was racing as he tries to understand what is going on, as he wondered if it is possible that there was more to him that he never knew. The screen the disappeared once more same way it mysteriously appeared leaving Jack Harrison staring at an empty air where he saw the system screens. Jack Harrison heart was still racing as he sat down frozen and wondering what all of that meant and what would happen next. Jack Harrison couldn't believe what he had just witnessed as he sat there completely dumbfounded as he kept staring at the spot where the system screen disappeared from. His mind was racing as he was processing what just happened. "Was I hallucinating?" Jack Harrison asked himself as he couldn't believe his eyes so he blinked several times and he was then certain that the system screen is gone and once again the room became quiet except for the sound of crackling fire in the other room. Jack Harrison heart kept beating in his chest as he wondered if all of this could be real because just moments ago he was a weakling, orphan boy and was not sure about his purpose in life and now our of nowhere he has been given a stats like he was a character in a video game and equipment he had never heard of such as energy blade, night vision, Sonic boom and super cloak. Jack Harrison kept trying hard to process all of it but none of it made sense as he wonders why the system chose him, and was surprised because he had always been an ordinary boy struggling with life challenges but not someone with super abilities or hidden powers. Jack Harrison stood up slowly as he tries to test if the system screen would appear back but nothing happened. He kept wondering if there was something inside him that he didn't know about or was there some secret tied to his past or his grandmother's death. Jack Harrison began to breath heavily as he needed answers for all this questions running through his head but didn't know who to ask and was certain not to bother Mrs Sophie with it so as to avoid sounding crazy. Jack glanced around the room hoping to find a clue but everything was like that just as he was it. Jack Harrison was shaking before he finally sat back I. The edge of the bed while holding his head in confusion. If this is not a dream then it means something bigger is happening and he is involved but what?, he kept wandering. Then suddenly a thought came to his mind like a whisper, Jack Harrison who was still trying to process what the strange system screen showed. As his mind was racing in different directions. Jack Harrison stood up as his legs was still trembling and decided to calm himself down. "I need a glass of water, I hope it would put me at ease" Jack Harrison said as he was hoping it would help him clear his head. He left his room and made his way to the kitchen, he walked quietly on the wooden floor so as not to disturb Mrs Sophie sleep, and the hose was silent as usual except for the crackling of the fire. Jack Harrison took an empty glass and filled it with water from the tap that was sun the kitchen. After taking a deep breath, Jack cranked the water and the water was rushing into his mouth. At first it was refreshing just like any other glass of water. But then something strange happened, as soon as the water entered his stomach, he felt a sudden surge of energy like a spark, sparking inside his body. His muscles was vibrating and his heartbeat accelerated, it was as if the body was reject the water within him as the sensation was painful and was sparking like an electric current running under his skin.Related Chapters

His vision became blur and the room looked like it was spinning in his eyes as he stumbled backwards, he immediately gripped the edge of the kitchen counter as he tries to balance himself."What is happening to me?" Jack Harrison said in his thoughts as he panicked but hut his mind flashed back to the strange system stats that was on the screen earlier Strength, speed,Sonic boom,super cloak, were these changes happening inside him already, as he kept wondering ans tries processing what was happening, the energy was already becoming unbearable as his limbs went numb and hack suddenly became dizzy and eventually his vision became dark and his body collapsed in the floor as he was gradually becoming unconscious.As Jack laid there, the spark inside began to calm and starts settling deep inside his body.

Did the system have a reason for reminding him of his abilities now, just before the execution of someone like Charles Oliver?, a criminal who may have had knowledge of hidden powers or ancient secrets?, Jack pushed the thought aside for now.He didn't know what to make of any of this.

His fist was clenched tightly and without thinking, Jack Harrison stepped forward with his voice louder and more confident than he felt."Leave her alone!" Jack Harrison shouted as his her was racing as he stood between Mrs Sophie and the bandits. The bandits stopped for a moment while turning to face him.The orc snorted while the half dragon tilted its head and making a mocking sneer. The orc then let out a low rumbling laugh."Look at this little hero, you think you can stop us boy" Emerick the half dragon hissed while showing it tongue.Brave but foolish, what do you plan to do?, fight us?, with what?" Emerick the half dragon said with a low growl.Jack Harrison mind raced for a second and he began to doubt his abilities.What was he doing?, these weren't just any thugs, they are powerful and dangerous creatures and he had no experience fighting anyone let alone bandits like these.But the system was awaken inside him and a force pushed him forward and his body began to tense and

"Jack, how did you do that?" Mrs Sophie said with her voice shaky.

Jack Harrison said.Mrs Sophie stared at him as her shock slowly fade away and was into marvel even though there was still some sign of fear in her eyes."You... you're not the same boy I took in, are you?" Mrs Sophie whispered. Jack Harrison was unsure of how to answer. He felt like the same person in many ways but the system, the powers had awakened inside him that he couldn't fully understand yet."I'm still me, but I think something changed, I don't know why or how but right now we need to get going to the council headquarters " Jack said softly.Mrs Sophie hesitated for a moment as her stare began to soften as soon as she saw Jack Harrison eyes.

The atmosphere was filled with anticipation and tension as the portal began to open up. A low sound, like the quiet buzzing of a thousand bees, filled the air, growling louder and intense with each passing moment.The portal's frame, an ancient work of silver and gold,started to glow with a soft, pulsing light. The glow grew brighter and brighter, until it was like staring into the heart of a fire. A blinding flash of light filled the area, and the portal's power reached its peak.After a few minutes, the portal was fully powered up, ready to transport anyone to a whole new dimension or planet."Alright, guys, the portal is set!" A guy approached ho seemed older than the rest affirmed as he carried his back and strapped it behind him.

“Guys? None of you is saying anything! You can’t just keep quiet about this, whatever decision we are making, I think we need to make it together.” Jack said calmly while he looked at Lucy whose eyes were saying more words than her mouth at that time. He could see from the look in her eyes that she wanted him to pass judgment that would be very easy for him to endure. She was even willing to let go and hoped that everyone was going to agree with her even though she knew that it was going to be very difficult, especially with Sierra involved. Lucy was the most compassionate among all the adventurers, she was merciful and kind, and could easily be made to react to very emotional situations. Her eagerness to react to such things made her the weakest link to them, and she didn’t even know about it. “I think we should let go of everything he has done to us, and move on. After all, we already have found the medallion, and it doesn’t look like we are going to

Jack gestured to Dwayne to explain to them, and he moved to the middle where everyone was going to be able to see and hear him clearly. Luckily, the rays from the moonlight were still bright, and he could still be seen. Sierra didn’t seem interested to hear what he was going to say, but when she saw that every other person had gotten closer to him, she reluctantly did the same and stood behind him, watching and waiting with her arms folded. Dwayne looked at his companions one after the other, and when he saw that they were paying attention while they surrounded him, standing at different corners, he sighed heavily before he went ahead to tell them what they had been longing to hear. “I am dying.” He said with a shaky tone, but his words came as a shock to his companions who didn’t know if they were to believe him him or not. They stared at each other for a few seconds before they returned their gazes to him, waiting for him to tell them that he was joki

Luckily, they were all out of the castle before it could collapse totally while they watched it go down, each block falling on top of the other amidst the rumbling and loud thud. “That was close! Really close!” Seth said with a shaky voice, looking at the collapsed building while he struggled to catch his breath. He was still panting frantically when he noticed that Sierra was marching aggressively toward him with an angry look on her face while she got ready to make use of her weapons. “I am sorry! I didn’t mean to bring him to you guys! I am so sorry! He forced me! He forced me!” Seth staggered backward while he covered his face, thinking that Sierra was about to attack him, but she walked past him with full force and grabbed Dwayne’s neck, unbothered about the fact that he was very dangerous. “Who are you? What is your mission? Who are you? Speak now before I strangle you!” She pushed him to the ground with an enormous rage while she tightened her gr

Everyone had become very silent while they looked at Jack who began to come down slowly, looking at Lord Rasmus who threatened to kill Lucy and was serious about it,. He wasn’t mincing words, and Lucy was aware of this as well. “You are wasting my time, boy! Hurry up at once, hand over the medallion, or she is dead!”“You will get the medallion! Don’t just hurt her! Don’t hurt her, okay?” Jack gestured to Lord Rasmus while he slowly came down, and the glow that covered him went off at once. The medallion fell into his hand, and he held it firmly while walking toward him. “Come on! Hand it over, now!” Lord Rasmus said imperatively while he had his eyes on the medallion, still holding onto Lucy who was still shivering under the influence of the fright that gripped her. Halfway to getting to Lord Rasmus, Jack noticed the presence of some shadowed creatures behind him, and he had to stop to be sure he wasn’t hallucinating. The figures disappeared almost as soon as they appeared, and Ja

Lord Rasmus grunted and filled with the strong determination to get what he wanted, he pointed to Lucy who shivered at once, knowing what was about to happen to her. “Get her! I think he will have no choice but to do my bidding! let's see if she will be able to convince him to let go of my medallion!” The soldiers began to move to Lucy who took three steps backward, frightened that her life was going to be at stake at that moment. “Jack! I need you! Please…” She whimpered while she was still moving backward until she almost staggered to the ground. While Jack was still struggling to understand what was going on, he heard the sound of Lucy’s voice, and reacting to it, he turned abruptly to look at the soldiers who had gone after her, still hanging in the air.“Don’t get close to her!” He said angrily to the soldiers, but they ignored him, and grabbed Lucy at once, dragging her to Lord Rasmus while she struggled to free herself from the

At that moment, the strange sensation that engulfed Jack made him take two steps toward the tomb, but the soldiers who were focused on the tomb as well didn’t take notice of him. As the sensation became more intense, so did he increase his steps, moving gradually but with a constant pace while his eyes continued to gaze at the tomb. “Finally!” Lord Rasmus brightened his face as he approached the tomb as though his life depended on it. He got very close to it, and as soon as the soldiers moved farther away from the tomb, he reached into the tomb and grabbed the medallion with both hands, lifting it up into the air until everyone could see it. “This is the medallion?” Sierra said with a smirk on her face while she stared at the bronze medallion that was visible to every other person. She seemed a little bit disappointed at how small and ordinary the medallion, and she was almost about to regret coming on that mission for something like that. Some of the soldiers also shared the same o

They looked at Lord Rasmus, and when he saw that the words Lucy spoke made them afraid, he turned to look at Lucy who bent her face instantly. “What do you know?” Lord Rasmus moved to Lucy who was standing very close to him, and with each step, he stomped on the earthed floor, her heart skipped several beats while she bent her face, clung to by her nervousness. “Look at me!” Lord Rasmus grabbed Lucy’s neck and forced her to look at him while he maintained a scowl on his face. Jack saw this and wished he could make a move, but the soldiers standing close to him were already aware that he could not be overlooked and had their eyes on him. “What did you say?” “I said that they are going to raise the spirits of the dead kings! I come from a lineage of necromancers, and I know that the tombs of kings should never be desecrated in any way, no matter what. This could awaken their spirits, and they could come for retaliation.” Lucy said with a sh

Lucy felt that her life was already over, but when she opened her eyes, she could see that the sword was still hanging in the air, while Lord Rasmus held onto it with a tight grip, still fuming angrily. He grunted while he was still glaring at her, and turned to look at Dwayne. “No! Please! Don’t do it! I think I know where it is! I am not sure, but I think I have an idea!” Dwayne continued pleading with Lord Rasmus, and it was at that time that Lucy realized that the sword didn’t strike her because Dwyane spoke up. She had been gripped tightly by her agitation that the sensation that engulfed her made her unable to his voice clearly. “I hope you are not joking with me! For your own sake, Dwayne, and for the sake of this young lady, I hope you are not playing with me.” “No! No, Lord Rasmus! I am telling the truth, Charles Oliver spoke to me about it, and I am certain that the tombs could be located anywhere around here!”“Good! Now, get up! Get up and show me!” Lord Rasmus lowered

He ordered his soldiers who were with torches, and they put them on with fire at once, moving ahead while they kept their eyes on the adventurers, especially Jack who had caught their attention after his brief encounter with their master. “I am tired, Jack. I need to get some rest.” Lucy grunted in exhaustion while she dragged her leg through the dark passage inside the castle. There were a lot of walls that had collapsed inside the castle. Also, apart from the doors and windows that were almost in total ramshackle, the floor of the castle had a lot of cracks which meant that there could be the presence of an earthquake which left it in that condition. “I am scared, Jack.” Lucy lamented again after she got no response from Jack who only looked at her without saying a word. “It’s okay, Lucy. You will be fine, I am sure of that.” Jack looked at Lucy with a smile on his face, but it didn’t look like that was going to be enough to pacify the young
