Stuck in my Game World. 147. Look! It's gone.
The night was quite long unlike the previous ones, but they could not question nature, as it was a certain thing that the sun would surely rise even if it wanted to take extra hours to do so. With the long wait for twilight, both Eric and Zach for the first time both fell asleep, leaving the orc to keep watch and this was mainly because the orc had gained their trust. Their falling asleep was nothing to the orc, it did not make a single attempt to run away even when it was not in chains. Though it was not in chains, but surely it was in fear that Eric might have said a spell that would get it trapped if it makes an attempt to escape so for it to be on a save side, it had to maintain patience as it was already close to accomplishing the plan which it had been working towards all these while. It was also happy that they had fallen asleep because that way, they would wake up when the sun was up and then behold the sight which it wanted them to behold upon their waking. On a normal, sinc
Stuck in my Game World. 148. Can't you see it?
Looking around as he was told, he still did not notice anything strange because he had looked around before now when he was looking for the orc. He maintained a still posture for a moment trying to figure out what had made Eric ask him to look around. Initially. He thought that it was the orc that Eric had asked him to look at but he was not seeing anything that he could say was the reason for his turning around. Eric noticed that he did not get the reason why he was asked to turn around, so he asked. “Can't you see it?” he was surprised that Zach was not observing the same thing which he was looking at. “See what?” Zach asked back as he looked at Eric for a second and then returned his gaze to the direction which he is meant to notice something strange in. Still in surprise that Zach was not beholding the sight which he was, he felt like allowing Zach to figure this out on his own, but there was no time for that, he had to air it out to save them the time which he would waste in t
Stuck in my Game World. 149. Just turn around....
Zach was not happy to hear the word ‘sit’ but he was left with no other choice. It took some minutes before gradually lowered himself to the ground. He did not give Eric any audible response to the request he had made, but his action of sitting down was enough to tell that he agrees to the request of sitting and making a plan. Since he had responded positively to the request, Eric then sat down too but he did not know where to start the talk from, thus he began by saying. “Thank you for heeding my words.” He paused after the appreciation, thinking seriously on the next thing to say. While thinking of what to say, the orc was sighted by him and instantly a smile filled his face slowly. Zach was surely curious of what was behind the smile on his face because they were sitting face to face, thus, he was backing the direction which the orc was coming from. He did not speak immediately, giving Eric some time as he believed that Eric would say the reason for his smile as he had already c
Stuck in my Game World. 150. Interpretation.
Even though it had lied, about why it did not run away, Eric for sure knew that it was lying due to the way it stammered. He could now be bold to say that the orc was scared of being manipulated but there was no need of prolonging the talk. He just pretended to take the words of the orc as it had said. “So where did you go? We have been awake for quite a while now and couldn’t find you nor did we pick any track.” “I was looking around for a way through the mountain.” The orc claimed. Meanwhile that was not what it was doing, it just decided to take a walk and also to put their minds high when they woke up without finding it and that aim was achieved as they were really troubled about its disappearance, especially Zach. “Do you not know the way around these lands? Or let me guess, you are leading us to another place instead of the base of your kind where we would find the young soldier that had brought us out of our lands.” Eric was suspecting that it was lying, so he asked to be sur
Stuck in my Game World. 151. Are you thinking what I am thinking?
Zach was a little bit convinced by what he said as regards to the he was the interpretation of what the orc had told him after it returned from looking around the place. He had his mind still telling him that Eric was lying and wanted him to stand by the words which he had said. So he was not ready to give in to the idea of making further delays. “You have said that which please you , now it is time for me to tell you what I have decided.” Eric predicted at once that the so-called decision of Zach was still going to be continuing on the journey as it was too quick for him to want to say something after hearing from him. Thus he advised, “You don’t need to rush in making your decision whatever it is, I have already promised to ask for it so take your time and think about whatever decision you want to take.” Zachary was wise enough to know what Eric was driving so he refused to take the advice given to him as he continued with what he had in mind. “There is no need to think further on
Stuck in my Game World. 152. A lot....
Asking a series of questions at the same time made it impossible for Eric to know and decide which one to answer and which not to, so he chose not to answer any of the questions, and in place of an answer he said. “What other choice do we have?” His reply was very much perfect because if things were viewed from the other perspective. They truly do not have a choice than to follow the other. Eric following the orc without asking question was not because he was not feeling the same way as Zach, rather it was because he had asked himself all those questions in silence and had predicted all possible answers that the orc would give to him to see they will still end in him continuing to following the creature so he had to save the energy which would be use to ask to those questions and probably enter into an argument that may not help them and their mission in anyway. What he did was to ensure that the orc was with them and would not by any means want to outsmart them by doing something fun
Stuck in my Game World. 153. Nonnegotiable.
Eric understood that the ten minutes was not a negotiation but a decision which he had taken without considering his say and with the way he was pacing the place, he knew that there was nothing he would say to him that would be listened to thus he had only the choice of taking the ten minutes and making good use of it. He turned to the orc who was still on the ground, it refused to move because it saw that Eric was fighting in its favor against his friend, so staying on the ground was a good strategy to make it continue gaining the support of Eric. Well Eric did not care whether it was still lying on the ground nor even injured. He was focused on making good use of the time given to him by Zach as he had no intention of keeping the orc alive any longer if it refuses to tell them what it was up to. So he said to it wearing a look that does not give a shit about the orc’s condition. “Listen to me and listen real good, your continuation to live depends solemnly on the decision you choo
Stuck in my Game World. 154. Now is our chance.
But Zach could not just spill it out as he knew that Eric was not ready to hear the name of the creature which the orc had brought them into its cave. “Forget about the name of the beast, let us turn around. Going that way is very dangerous. We wouldn’t survive it.” “It is either you tell me what it is or have me find out by myself?” Eric gave him two options to choose from and he was very serious about it. “It is a dragon.” Zach made his choice by telling him what it was instead of allowing him continue with the movement which he had tagged to be suicidal. “A dragon?!” Eric exclaimed as he could not believe what he was told. According to what they told him in the country of Palind, they only had one dragon terrorizing them of which he had killed so it was impossible for him to believe that there was another dragon out there in the outer world. “Yes, I know the sound of one when I hear it.” Zach was absolutely affirmative on this and would not back out even though Eric refuses to
