2025-01-22 15:35:59His 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 he could feel the energy within him. The system screen appeared in front of him once again but this time it is more urgent. URGENT MISSION: PROTECT THE HOST STRENGTH BOOST: ACTIVATED ENERGY BLADE: ACTIVATED SONIC BOOM: READY TO USE Suddenly Jack Harrison felt his hand vibrating as something strange happened. A glow began to show from his palm and within seconds the energy blade was on his hand while it was glowing with a bright and blue light. "Holy smokes!" Jack Harrison said with excitement. The power was speaking like electricity as it formed a solid shape in his hand, a weapon he never thought he would hold but now it felt natural. "What the hell is this?" The bandits laughter stopped. The half dragon eyes narrowed as it mocking sneer faded and he began to take a cautious step backwards. The orc seemed not to be shocked as he is now eyeing Jack Harrison with more interest than before. "You've got truck up your sleeve, I see, but you're still not match for me" the orc rumbles, as his words sent shivers down Jack spine. But Jack Harrison stood his ground as he hid grip tightening on the energy blade. The weapon was filled with raw power in his hand and despite the fwe still in him he felt a sense of control as if the system was guiding him, showing him how to harness the energy inside him. "Last chance, leave us alone or I'll make you" Jack said with confidence, the orc began to laugh again. "Make me?" With that the orc charged forward while swinging it's massive arm down at jack with a force that could have crushed him easily. But something strange happens. Jack was fast enough to step aside and the orc arm slamming into the ground with a loud crash. Before the orc could recover, Jack Harrison immediately raised the energy blade and slashed the orc arm. The blade sliced through the air quickly and cutting into the orc thick skin. A roar of pain erupted from the creature as it stumbled backwards while holding it's wounded arm. Emerick the half dragon snarled as he stepped forward with fury in his eyes, his claws was raised and ready to strike but Jack Harrison was ready. His mind seems to connect with the system and guiding his actions. In a n instant Jack activated Sonic boom, sending a shockwave of energy out from his body. The shockwave hit the half dragon chest and sent him flying backwards and hit himself on the wall with a heavy thud. The half dragon was in the ground and was unable to move. The crowd around them gasped in shock and surprise while some of the where backing away in fear while others watched in surprise at the sudden display of power. The orc now bleeding from its arm as he stared at jack Harrison with boiling anger. "You little...." Before ethe orc could finish the statement, the energy blade in Jack Harrison hand became brighter and Jack Harrison immediately steps forward and standing tall despite the fear he was still having inside him. He wasn't going to back down." Get out of here, this is your last warning" Jack said coldly as he stared directly into the orc's eye. The orc hesitated as he glanced at his fallen companion and then glanced at the blade in Jack's hand and for the first time there was uncertainty in his eyes. With a low growl, oron the orc took a step back while holding his wounded arm. "This isn't over boy" he said before spitting on the ground before turning to retreat. Emerick the half dragon was still shaken by the shockwave as he got back up to his feet while glancing at jack with anger before leaving. Jack Harrison stood for a moment as his chest was beating fast as the adrenaline coursed through him. Slowly the energy blade vanished out of existence and the weight of what just happened began to sink, Jack turned to Mrs Sophie who was still on the ground staring at him in disbelief. "Jack, what just happened" she whispered as her voice was filled with shock. "I don't know, but I think I'm changing, it's all over now, Let's just go to the execution " Jack Harrison said calmly even though the adrenaline was still I his veins. Jack Harrison extended a hand to Mrs Sophie to help her get up for the ground. Mrs Sophie was still frozen in shock as her eyes widened with disbelief as she glanced at jack face and searching for an explanation. She had always known him as a quiet and timid boy and too weak to defend himself let alone stand up to dangerous bandits. But just now she had witnessed him fend off an orc and a half dragon as though it was a piece of cake.

"Jack, how did you do that?" Mrs Sophie said with her voice shaky. Jack Harrison shook his head as he was avoiding her gaze as he looked down on the empty street where the bandits fled."I don't know, things have been different for me lately, but I don't really understand it either., I just knew i had to protect you." 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.

"Do you think he'll say anything?" Jack Harrison asked Mrs Sophie quietly as he his gaze was fixated on the scene. "Maybe, but whatever he says, it will be a reminder of what happens when one chooses a dark path" Mrs Sophie replied softly with a mixture of sadness and anticipation. The council leader steeped forward raising his hand for silence once more. The crowd became silent once again as there was tension in the air and they are all ready to witness the ending of years of fear and suffering.

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.

"I say we turn back and leave this hole we came to before we all end up dead" a man from the hunter said with fear in his voice."What say you Dwayne , you are the leader so what do we do?" A girl said as they all turned to Dwayne who has been watching them panic the whole time."Everyone should calm down and try to relax!" Dwayne said with a dark tone, and the whole group kept quiet. "Don't pay attention to the surroundings you see. A dimension isn't determined by the surroundings but the monsters in it." He added."You're the leader, If you say so, then let's continue but i hope we locate the cave i wonders" A lady said as she brought out her weapons and ready to strike whatever comes their way."I like your determination, miss" Dwayne said as he let out a smile on his face."And what about you boy, you have seen the surroundings we are right now, we don't need any weakling or soft person on this hunt...so whatever you do keep your senses sharp and move with the team" wade said l

"And if we even tried to take on the dragon, we are Short of men, wade is gone and we have a weak hunter in the squad". Another hunter said as he glanced at Jack Harrison."We will give it our best shot, while Jack Harrison should stay behind to get the med kit ready. If we put in our best we will definitely kill it!" Dwayne declared with a determined look on his face as he gripped his battle axe firmly in his right hand.The group nodded in affirmation as they looked above the sky and saw different beasts roaming the sky."Make sure you don't get in our way, scum."

At the middle of he night while everyone was asleep a strange noise was heard. "Urgggggggg! A loud battle cry reverberated throughout the cave as jack Harrison swung out his energy blade and sliced three huge spider monster head clean off. Black blood splattered around as the heads flew up into the air and fell down on the floor. "We can't sleep now, it's not safe, let's go into the cave and recover the map. The more we get closer to the exit the more I encounter these annoying bastards!" Jack Harrison voiced out as he took off four monsters heads with a clean strike from his swords. "You guys should try and take some of them out, I'm getting tired" Jack Harrison said. "You can't complain though.. it's better we encounter these mini monsters than the cave destroyer, Scavenger ." Dwayne muttered as they began to adVinceforward. Jack Harrison kept advancing forward while continuously checking the timer. They switched from walking to jogging, and from jogging to running. The m

Jack ignored the inquisitive and staring eyes of the rest of the hunters who wouldn’t take their eyes away from him after they had witnessed everything that he did. They had underestimated him, and the signs that they were wrong glared outrightly at them. “I think we should put him ahead of us, he seems to have very powerful skills and is more skillful than we thought. We are definitely going to need him in this place with unimaginable and unthinkable creatures.” One of the female soldiers suggested with a whisper, but her words taunted Dwayne who didn’t want to hear anything of that nature. “Nonsense! Of what use is he? Just because he got so lucky and managed to slay the cave destroyer, you suddenly think he is valuable. He is just a human with no ability, and there is nothing more to that!” Dwayne stood on his resolve not to let Jack become more relevant than he was. He could already see that the group was beginning to have double feelings about his leadership, and he didn’t want

“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
