The sound of Adrianna’s voice caused the five adventurers to turn to look at her. She was still on the floor, grunting in so much pain, and when she attempted to crawl toward another corner of the hut, her strength failed her, and she remained in her position.

“We need to leave,” Dwayne said to the others, and then he managed to bend down slowly to pick up the map from the floor before taking a step toward the exit of the hut.

Succumbing to the bruises all over his body, he staggered after making a second attempt to walk, almost falling to the ground. Jack was able to catch him before he fell, and he held onto him firmly with both hands.

“Come on, this way…” Jack helped Dwayne to move toward the exit of the hut, and when he was sure that he had gotten a grip on himself, he let him go and hurriedly picked up his energy blade before he joined the others who had rushed out of the hut.

“Hurry, Jack!” Lucy called out to him the moment she saw him coming out from the hut, and he hastene

    “I am glad I could help. The witch thought she had managed to put me to sleep, but she forgot that Centaurs do not fall completely to the effects of witchcraft and magic. We are magical creatures, and magic hardly works on us…” “That’s right, I was beginning to imagine how you were able to escape from her…” Lucy said with a nod that showed that she had fully understood what had happened, and her curiosity settled. “This isn’t right…” Dwayne whispered to the hearing of everyone as he looked at the map he was holding with both hands and looked down the cliff where the water flowed down to the other side. “What is it, Dwayne?” Sierra asked with a whisper, but he was silent while he tried to figure out the strange occurrence he had witnessed at that time. “This can’t be right, this must be a mistake.” “What is it, Dwayne? What did you see?” Lucy asked curiously as she drew closer to him, and peeped at the map to figure out what he was worried about. Seth drew closer almost immediate

    The suspense that lingered in the midst of the six adventurers was accompanied by a sudden silence that almost engulfed them entirely until Jack decided that it was time to discard the silence. He cleared his throat twice to draw their attention, and when he was certain that everyone was looking at him, he began to address them. “Listen, guys…” He started with a calm tone, gesturing to them even though Sierra didn’t seem interested in what he was about to say. “What the three of you did was totally wrong, you couldn’t have hidden such an important thing from us. But we can’t stand here all day and talk about it as though we don't have other important things to worry about…” “But they refused to tell us that they had spoken to Charles Oliver before he died. Why would they hide that kind of information from us? How can we even trust them after this? Elves!” Seth scoffed in annoyance, and at that moment, he began to distance himself from Dwayne who realized that he didn’t have any ho

    “I have some friends among the guards, they agreed to help us get into his cell. With a price, of course. They insisted that it was going to be the night before the day of his execution because that was the night he was transferred to a private cell where he was prepared for his final breath.” Dwayne paused for a few seconds before he continued with a low tone. “We weren’t able to get so much information from Charles Oliver as our time was limited, and he wasn’t really willing to talk. He insisted that he was only going to speak the next day before his execution, but we pleaded with him. Eventually, he decided to tell us where to get the map, but he still told us to be aware that we weren’t going to be the only ones looking for the medallion.” “Charles Oliver warned us about Lord Rasmus, saying that he could never be trusted, even Humans who happened to be the ones who betrayed him and got him arrested. At the end of our visit, he warned us not to tell anyone that we had spoken to h

    At that time, there was a few seconds of silence while everyone was trying to get out of the confusion that lingered in their minds. “What do you mean by that, Seth? How can we move to another dimension without knowing it? Is that even possible?”“Well, I think so…” Seth said with a little certainty, but that wasn’t enough to convince Lucy and Jack who seemed to be more doubtful than the others, especially Lucy who disagreed with a shake of her head. “This is insane!” Lucy sighed, her eyes showing signs of doubt and uncertainty while she looked at Seth, hoping to get more explanations for his claims. “You are saying that we might have entered into another dimension without knowing?”“That’s correct, Jack.” Seth nodded to affirm his words, looking convincingly at Jack who sighed softly before he continued. “At what point to you think we got into another dimension, then?” Jack asked the most puzzling question, putting everyone in a period of long thinking while he waited to get an a

    “There is only one way to find out. We will stick together while we check it out. Dwayne?” Jack turned to look at Dwayne who was already staring at him, waiting to hear what he was going to say. “Point us in the right direction. Everyone, brace up for whatever lies ahead.” Jack gestured to Dwayne who sighed heavily before he looked into the map. He stared at it for a few seconds, and when he was able to confirm his words, he lifted his face and followed the trail of the river. “That way, we will follow that way. We should be able to get to the seven mountains before sunset if we move really fast.” Dwayne pointed to a path that was close to the river, and everyone looked toward that direction at once. “Alright, guys. We heard him, we need to move now.” Jack gestured to everyone at once, and they slowly started going through the path close to the river with Dwayne leading the way with his eyes on the map in front of him. The other elves followed suit at once before Seth unsheathed h

    Jack and Lucy turned almost at the same time to look at Seth who slowed down to join their conversation. He had a bright smile on his face, and notwithstanding the fact that it didn’t seem pleasant to them that he was eavesdropping on their conversation, they couldn’t really get angry at him no matter how hard they tried to. “I can imagine the look on her face when I return victoriously to fulfill all her desires, she is definitely going to love me more, I am certain of that. No one in this universe is going to love me like her, and no one will ever take her place in my life.” “Oh, really?” Jack chuckled softly, looking at Seth who nodded to affirm his words. The look on his face showed so much certainty, but that wasn’t enough to convince Jack that the Centaur was certain of what he was saying. “Are you sure about this, Seth? I mean, I am not trying to say that she would betray you, but I just don’t want you to get your hopes too high. Sometimes, we get betrayed by those we put al

    “I am sure about that, Jack. A human once helped me when I was almost eaten up by a rogue wolf when I went into the forbidden forest to fetch some flowers for my beloved.”“What? You went beyond the boundaries, Seth? What were you thinking?” Lucy asked with so much shock on her face, but Seth was silent for a while before he eventually responded with a smile. “My beloved said she loved the smell of the flowers, and I really wanted to get them for her. I went to the local markets to get them, but I was told that they had finished, and the only place to get them was across the boundary. I spoke to my beloved about it…” “Let me guess, she demanded that you go across the boundary just to get her the flowers?” Jack cut in at once, looking at Seth who was a bit embarrassed to admit what truly happened. “Is that true, Seth? Is Jack correct?”“Not really, Lucy. You see, I was the one who insisted that I wanted to go beyond the boundary to get her those flowers. She didn’t want me to go, bu

    Left with no choice, Vince joined the others at once, after he had struggled with the attempt to convince himself that he didn’t need to get something to eat even when he knew deep inside himself that he was entirely hungry. He sighted a huge fish moving slowly inside the river, and he quickly stabbed it with his spear and lifted it gently from the water. “Well, that was very quick,” Lucy said excitedly, surprised at the fact that Vince was the first to catch a fish even though he seemed to be entirely against them stopping to get something to eat. “I didn’t know you were hungry, brother.” Sierra turned to look at her brother with a smirk on her face, while she held onto the arrow she attached to her bow. Her brother didn’t bother to look at her, knowing that she was a bit frustrated after attempting to shoot the fish he caught twice to no avail. The effects of her pursuit made the fish swim slowly which made her brother catch it really quickly with just a single shot. “We could s

    Jack took in a deep breath which he exhaled sharply, and while everyone remained calm, waiting for him to continue, he resumed speaking with a calm but resonant voice. “I forgive you, Vince. I guess you were acting based on impulse even though you shouldn’t have attacked me that way. I hope this teaches you a life lesson.”“Certainly, it has. I have learned that things may not always be the way they seem, Jack. What just happened has taught me a very important lesson.” Vince said with a low tone, he paused for less than five seconds, and when he was sure that Jack was still listening, he continued. “I know better now, Jack. I promise not to ever do that again.” “Good, that’s all that matters.” Jack nodded with a smile on his face, and when he turned to look at Sierra, he sighed heavily. “I forgive you all, the both of you. I just hope that you are not going to do this again.” “We won’t, Jack. That’s a promise. I have realized my mistakes, and I am ready to make amends.” Sierra sa

    Overwhelmed by the guilt that cringed him like a volcanic eruption, Vince took in a deep breath which he let out slowly, and when he was certain that he had summoned enough courage, he slowly started walking toward Jack who only gave him a quick glance before he bent his face and grunted angrily. “I am really sorry, Jack. Please forgive me.” Vince apologized with a low tone, but Jack ignored him, unable to forget the fact that he was determined to kill him a few minutes earlier. He tried to accept his apology at once, but he was too upset to easily forgive him without expressing himself at least. “What happened? Why is Vince apologizing to Jack?” Sierra asked Lucy who took a step backward before she sighed heavily. “Jack was the one who saved you, he gave you a substance in a bottle to drink. Vince thought he had killed you, and tried to avenge your death.” Lucy explained with a whisper, looking in at Sierra who was shocked and dumbfounded at the same time. At that moment, she was

    “I tried, okay? I tried to stop him, but he is too stubborn! I can’t do anything, Lucy! I have my own problem to worry about!” Dwayne blurted out at once, still grunting inwardly while he looked at Vince who had made two other failed attempts to strike Jack with his spear. “What are you afraid of? huh? Fight me, Jack! Fight me like a man! You just killed two men and my sister! I am sure that taking one more life would mean nothing to you! Fight me! Are you scared?” Vince roared as he marched angrily at Jack who sighed heavily while he watched him get closer with each fast limp he made. Jack’s intention was just to defend himself and never hurt the Elf, but he was afraid that he was going to have to choose between himself and Vince who refused to budge. “You need to stop this, Vince! You are making a very terrible mistake! I don’t want to hurt you! I don’t want to hurt you!” Jack continued to restrain himself from hurting the elf who was not thinking of any other thing but his vende

    Eventually, Vince gave in, and reluctantly let go of Jack’s hands while he looked at his sister whose life was fading away gradually. “This better work or I am going to kill you myself! I don’t care if you have that weapon or not!” Vince threatened, staring at the blazing sword which lay on the ground close to Jack. “Hurry, Jack! She is almost dying!” Lucy called Jack’s attention to Sierra who had stopped jerking, giving signs that she was about to die. Quickly, Jack leaned forward to her and poured some of the content of the healing oil into her mouth while Lucy helped him keep her mouth open just before she forced her to swallow it. They waited for a few seconds amidst the panic that engulfed them, but nothing happened. Jack looked at the bottle in his hand, and when he returned his gaze to Sierra, he saw that she was not moving, and he became very nervous. “I think you should give her more! Maybe that wasn’t enough!” Lucy suggested, and just when Jack was about to do what she

    “Jack! Watch out!” Lucy shouted as soon as she saw the two savage men moving slowly toward Jack from behind, hoping to take him unaware, but he turned instantly, causing them to halt while they looked at the blazing sword which they were wary of. “Stay away from me and my friends if you do not want to end up like your leader and your fighter!” Jack kicked Kael’s head toward the two savage men who were standing behind him. One of them stopped it from rolling with his left foot, and the two of them growled at Jack angrily, but the sight of the weapon which he wielded firmly caused them not to make a single move. “That should be enough to show you that you will be fighting a lost battle if you decide to stop us from leaving. We do not want any more trouble….” Jack looked at his companions, and then he signaled to them at once, waiting patiently until they got up from their kneeling positions. Vince and Lucy helped Sierra up while Dwayne hurriedly gathered their weapons from the floor

    For almost thirty seconds, Jack looked at the sword in his hand, wondering if it was going to be able to do anything to hurt the beast in Human form standing before him. At that moment, he would have preferred the energy blade, but there was no time to think about any other decision as Kael had gotten ready to attack. Stomping his feet heavily on the hard floor, Kael ran toward Jack with all the energy he had in him, ready to finish him off with a single strike. “You are going to regret what you did to my champion!” Kael roared, jumping up again while he lifted his sword, and struck Jack with it. Reacting to the nervousness that cringed into him the moment he saw the sword coming down at him, Jack lifted his sword impulsively in an attempt to block the strike from Kael’s sword. Unexpectedly, the blazing sword blazed with a fierce glitter that was bright enough to blind anyone who gazed at it for a long time. Sending Kael’s sword back to him as soon as they contacted, Jack’s blazi

    Jack became very wary of what was going to happen if he wasn’t able to dodge the arrow, but because Kael was closer than he was before, he couldn’t discard the nervousness that crept into his body as he watched his enemy get closer to him. Without warning, Kael released the spear from his hand with a more fierce energy which was almost twice the force with which he threw the previous spear which managed to give Jack a cut on his left arm. Luckily, Jack ducked the moment the spear got very close to him, and it flew ahead of him, missing him by several inches. Kael grunted angrily while his men groaned in disappointment as they thought that the spear was going to get Jack after Kael had aimed for his head, hoping to kill him with the second spear. “You missed!” Jack said to Kael with a smirk on his face while he struggled to catch his breath after having a near-death experience while he watched the spear attempt to plunge into his head. “Hand me over a sword!” Kael said imperati

    Jack looked at the leader of the Forsaken for a few seconds, and even though he struggled not to be afraid of him, he couldn’t stop himself from being wary of the fact that it wasn’t going to be easy to kill him just like he had killed Rico who was not as strong as he was. He was still struggling with the uncertainty that crept into his mind as he stood before Kael Who was getting ready to attack him when he suddenly felt a weakness surging through his veins, and causing him to feel very dizzy. His body seemed to be reacting to something he was completely unaware of, and he struggled to keep his eyes open while he groaned. “What is happening to me? Why do I feel this way?” Jack asked himself with a whisper while he continued to struggle with himself amidst the weakness that became more intense with each passing moment. “What is wrong with him? Why is he acting very strange?” Lucy whispered only to her hearing while she looked at Jack who was still struggling to stand on his fee

    Turning to look at Kael who was walking slowly toward him, Jack continued his movement as well, looking confidently as the leader of the Forsaken until they met in the middle of the crowd. “I underestimated you, boy,” Kael said with a frown on his face, staring at Jack who unexpectedly didn't flinch even though he expected him to because he looked far more dangerous than Rico in all ramifications. “I think we are even, Kael. I hope you are going to let us go now.” Jack said with a deadpan face, looking at Kael who nodded without letting go of his frown. He looked at some of the savage men by his left who started to make hooting sounds, but he quickly looked away from them and returned his gaze to Kael who suddenly started to smile. Jack looked at him for a few seconds, waiting for him to speak, but he soon started to chuckle without taking his eyes away from him. “Is he going crazy?” Jack thought to himself but refused to speak in order not to arouse any form of lingered antagoni
