Unable to wait for the doctor to complete her statement, everyone ran as fast as they could to Abraham’s room. It’s been a month without him.They all missed him, especially Asher who had made up his mind to make sure that he sorts things out as soon as his father wakes up.“STOP!” Akira was the one who called them to order just when they were all about to barge into his ward room, “I can’t let you all run in there like that.” He sighed as he stood in front of them.He knew just how excited they must be to see Abraham but just because he’s out of the critical condition he’s in doesn’t mean that he’s able to handle so many guests.Akira had taken it upon himself to check on Abraham first and although he was still slightly weak, Abraham was ready to meet everyone.He didn’t believe he had been unconscious for a full month, he wondered what everyone else was up to and Akira could tell that he couldn’t wait to see them too but his body isn’t in the right position to get so many guests.“T
“There are no life forces, why are there no life force?” The dark lord asked, the only way he could send his monsters out is if there’s an hint of life force.That was why his monsters are only coming out whenever Lyon and his team are out training. He didn’t need a life force to go into the world but he wanted Lyon to taste pain.All the powerful monsters he had been sending has been defeated by Lyon but he didn’t want to accept defeat, he needed more time to access Lyon’s powers and there would be no way to do that if he couldn’t send more monsters after Lyon.“Lyon Armstrong,” he gritted angrily as he looked at all the multiple dimensions he had but none of them had the Lyon Armstrong he was looking for.“Where is he?” He questioned angrily, his blood boiling that he was wasting his monsters on a little boy like Lyon.“I’ve been alive for centuries and he thinks he can defeat me,” his fist clenched, anger thrumming in his head like a drumbeat, “I need to put him in his place.” He a
The fact that Abraham is alive and well is more than enough motivation than everyone needed. They continued with their usual training and after a few while, they were all ready to go back to the house.“You do know that you can’t go into normal combat so whatever help you’ll want to offer our chosen, you’ll have to do it from a safe spot.” Akira said to Abraham.He knew just how stubborn Abraham could be and getting him to quit fighting was going to be one of the hardest things to do but Akira decided to try anyway.“You know that’s not going to happen,” Abraham laughed and Akira soon joined in, “I promised his parents that I’m going to protect him no matter what.”“In his wind and losses, I want to be able to help Lyon whether or not it costs me my life.” Abraham finished and Akira sighed.He looked over Abraham’s shoulders at Lyon and shook his head. Lyon had tried everything he could to get Abraham to stay back at the organization from there but nothing worked.Even when he had tol
“That’s right, I need to tell you something about the Dark Lord.” Lyon started as they drove home, he revealed everything about the use of life force and how the Dark Lord might be the strongest entity but is still weak if there isn’t anyone he could draw life from.Lyon made sure he took his time explaining everything to them, he needed them to be prepared for anything since they’d still have to leave the house for training.“The only way we can get Monsters to fight against is if we go outside, that way he’s going to get a signal and send a monster.” He finished.The car was silent for a while as everyone started pondering on what Lyon had just said, they realized that it was true.The streets happen to be peaceful whenever there is no one outside but as soon as they step out of the veil, they always have a monster or two to fight.“So we’ll just stay in the house like we’re some sort of prisoner?” Chelsey asked and Lyon shook his head.“That’s why you want the citizens to come back
Chelsey’s heart clenched, beads of sweat broke out of her forehead and the more she fought with the really powerful monster she was fighting, the harder it was for her to go on.And not just her but the rest of the team too, Elen felt like she’s pushing herself too hard already, she coughed and blood came out of her mouth.Abraham, who is still so weak, has a lot on his plate too and his son, Asher has been doing everything in his power to make sure that he’s able to help his father.Everything seemed off and weird, they couldn’t shake off the feeling, they could also feel just how bloodthirsty the monsters they were fighting were.“Has anyone seen the chosen?!” Asher asked, his voice loud as everyone looked around. They knew Lyon was missing but they thought he had gone to check for the portal as usual.Chelsey could tell that that was not what had happened, she could feel that something was terribly wrong and neither of them could feel Lyon’s life force anywhere around them.“The Ch
“He’s going to be fine, we shouldn’t worry about him.” Kelvin said with a smile even though he’s probably more worried than the rest of the team.They took rounds checking on the people they’d saved and after over thirty minutes of waiting, the team soon arrived and along with them was Felix Darius, the vice captain.“I didn’t think you were going to come with them,” Elen said as she walked towards him while the other officers took care of the strangers.“Really?” Felix raised an eyebrow and Elen laughed as they greeted each other as though they hadn’t seen each other when she was leaving.Felix asked for more details and Elen gave him everything she had, they didn't know much about the people except for the fact that they came from a totally different dimension.They lived in a different world but the people also seemed civil enough to eat their kind of food so it wasn’t so bad, they’re going to be able to take care of them until everything was fine.“Did you think the Dark Lord brou
Lyon spat out blood, there was limitation to his powers, his calculations weren't accurate and he could feel himself getting weaker as the fight went on.“Come on, Lyon Armstrong!” The Dark Lord mocked as he struck Lyon with yet another hit, “didn’t you call me a coward, who’s the coward now?!” The Dark Lord added.Lyon’s body weakened, he had tried everything in his power to at least hit the Dark Lord but it felt as though all of his strikes were going through him instead of hitting him.He winced, his body seemed to be giving up on him and Lyon could feel the flashbacks filling his mind as his life flashed right before his eyes.There’s no way he could hit the Dark Lord in his own territory, Lyon tried to look for a way to communicate with his friends but all communication links were cut off when he got into the Dark World.His magic held no water and he remembered the necklace his parents gave him but resorting to that right now was the last thing he wanted to do.“Am I really weak
It was an intense fight, the Dark Lord had suffered a really great hit and he didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him that he was really going to die if the fight went on.His gaze lifted and Lyon’s eyes were still really red, he couldn’t see anything and was only moving on his instinct. The Dark Lord spat out blood as he held his chest.Looking around, there was nowhere left for him to hide as Lyon had blown up everything, all the cover he could possibly have has been blown and he knew that the most reasonable thing to do at this point is to send Lyon back to his world.“What happened to all those energy you had while you were attacking me earlier on?” Lyon taunted, he could also see that the Dark Lord couldn’t go on anymore and he’d only resorted to running.“You called me weak and yet you’re the one running with you tail between you legs,” Lyon laughed as he walked, he didn’t need to run, he already knew that he was going to catch up with the Dark Lord.“I really wish I could keep fig
