Jake gathered the seven noble knights, Lyca, Caroline, Archris, and Eleazar, inside the mansion. The walls were destroyed, but still, that would be the best place for them to have a meeting. Lyca then asked Amarha and Archana to send a telepathy message to everyone saying that they could relax for a while, but they couldn’t leave their posts.While they were on their way to the mansion, their attention was caught by two military helicopters flying over the place. Jake used his enhanced vision to see who was in the chopper, and he saw armed snipers and a machine gun. He did not know what they were planning, but he could sense that they were not completely allies.As soon as they took shelter in the ruined mansion, Jake asked Lyca and Caroline about what happened. The two ladies answered right away, telling him about the skeleton soldiers who suddenly appeared and attacked them and how the three noble knights helped them fight those monsters.They also informed Jake about Mabelle and t
“Why are you here? Why didn’t you go to the evacuation area?" Jake asked Sebastian as he poured some whiskey into a glass. He then put the bottle of liquor on the center table, where Caroline put glasses for everyone there.Sebastian sighed as he looked at Jake. “I thought it'd be best to stay here. I mean, I have to protect this place. At least.” He said that, then he took one of the glasses and poured himself some whiskey.“But the situation is now beyond dangerous, Sebastian. Even if you stay here and guard this building, you won’t survive the power of the enemies,” Jake responded.“Even so,” his stepbrother said. “I can’t just leave this place. This is the only thing I have, Jake, and you know that.”Jake didn’t respond to that. He understood Sebastian very well. They actually shared the same sentiment about the company. But for him, life is more important than anything else. He knew it as someone who had died twice already.“Hey, what are you guys drinking? Some alcohol?" Falco a
Kranous laughed boisterously as he slowly stood up from the ground. Then he leaned closer to Jake, moving his head from side to side and wearing an ominous evil smile. Jake tried to move but he could not. He couldn’t even blink his eyes, and he was having a hard time breathing because something he couldn’t see was squeezing his whole body.“My… my… my…” Kranous said mockingly while walking around Jake’s petrified body. The wicked smile was still on his face. “Did you really think you could defeat me that easily? We have fought many times already, Jake. You should’ve known better.”“What the hell did you do?!” Jake shouted. Kranous stopped in front of him and smirked. “The likes of you are always blinded by hatred. Just like the three stupid jerks there,” he said then he glanced at Archris and the two knights. “When they saw me, they charged right away without checking the surroundings.”The villain then snapped his fingers, and what appeared around them made Jake’s and the rest’s ey
Jake didn’t waste any time. He quickly withdrew his golden spear from the spider and faced Kranous whose face was in shock for what happened. Jake dashed towards the villain, but the dark entity vanished in front of him before he could stab it with his spear.“You always shock me, Jake,” Kranous said as he emerged behind Jake. “I guess I have to stop playing now and be serious in killing you.” His armor started to fall to the ground, leaving his naked body exposed. Jake jumped away from him, anticipating any attack any time. He suddenly felt a heavy pressure in the atmosphere and he knew that something scary was about to happen.The villain’s skin started to shed, and each time it happened, the skin turned into ashes like it was burned by something. The monster’s brows knitted, as he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He looked like he was in agony. But Jake didn’t have time to watch it transform into something else. So, he dashed towards Kranous and thrusted his spear toward
The dark aura that was lingering in the place slowly disappeared. The skeleton soldiers went back to the ground like they were sucked by something from below. Their screams and roars were heard, until it became so quiet. “Did we really defeat him?” Archris asked Jake before falling on his knees. His magic energy had depleted already to the point that healing magic couldn’t do anything anymore. There were black marks below his eyes, and his lips were already chapped. Jake rushed to help his former student. He quickly cast a healing spell. It helped in healing the physical damage that Arcrhris received from the fight but that did not bring back his lost magic power. “Did we really finish him?” Archris asked again while Jake was helping him to sit on the ground. “Is it finished?”Jake nodded his head. “It’s done. The three servants of Tharanos are now gone. And all of that was thanks to you guys.” He answered before looking at Archris then to the knights who were walking towards them.
The news about what was happening in the city reached the office of the President, then through news, and social media, the whole world started to be aware of what was happening there. The leaders of different countries called for a meeting, and they questioned everyone from the country about the situation. They blamed the President of the country where Jake was in for hiding the truth about these people who possessed special magic powers. But little did they know that there were also people who can use magic in their countries. And those people started to move to the city where the fight was happening. It’s not that they knew what was going on, but they rather felt that they were needed in that place. Jake gave assignments to everyone. He divided the people they have into six, but he didn’t ask them to fight the evil gods head on. He asked them to just observe the area and report what was going on in each place where the evil gods were located. “Have you reached Lyca?” Archris
Dudgara chuckled as he stretched his arms on his sides as well as his neck. Then the monster in human form locked his gaze on Jake. He looked at him slowly from head to toe, and once again laughed. “I don’t know how to put my anger into action or words,” he said. His eyes were still locked on Jake. “I can’t comprehend how long it has been since I breathed fresh air. And that’s because of you!”Jake exhaled and stared at the man. “Who summoned you? Who broke the seal?! Was it Thalara?”The evil god smirked. “Too many questions!” he angrily replied. “I don’t care who broke that seal! What is important now is that I am here, together with my brothers!” He stopped, frowned and shook his head. “But you are here again!” “Are you that afraid of me?” Jake mocked the man. “Well, I can’t blame you. After what I did to you, I don’t expect you to like me.” “How dare you?!” Dudgara exclaimed in anger. “But this time, I will make sure that I will have the final laugh! I won’t let you go away!”J
Dudgara guffawed as he looked at Bruce who was on the floor screaming, and holding his wounded and injured leg. Then he slowly turned to Jake and smiled. The blue flames around him started to disappear as well. “The time you sealed me was just pure luck, Jake,” the evil god of sloth said, grinning at Jake. “Now, you’ll have a taste of…”But before Dudgara was able to finish what he was about to say, black liquid dripped from his mouth and black marks for his veins appeared all over his body, and they turned his skin darker and darker. He looked at his chest and there, he saw Jake holding the golden spear with Voragor’s aura which was pierced in his chest and penetrated to his back. Behind Jake was Bruce, standing and unharmed. And behind him was Hansel, and his whole body was engulfed by the blue flame.“H-How did you…”“Simple. I used illusions,” Jake said while smiling.“Illusions?”“Ah! I learned this from one of the servants of Tharanos. He could create illusions that looked rea
