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
Stuck in my Game World. 155. Nothing in common.
When the dragons came to the point where they had diverted, they stopped, about three of them, two matured dragons though not as old as the one which Eric had killed when he was still in Palind. It was obvious from their appearance and sizes that they were the descendants of the one which he had killed in the country. Knowing their dwelling but not being able to predict human action, they had to part ways at that very spot where Eric and Zach had taken the diversion. Two had to go in the direction which they had higher expectation that the humans had taken, while one took the part which Eric and Zachary had taken. Eric and his friend kept running for only a matter of time till they felt that the creatures were no longer following them in that direction so they had to slow down and take in some deep breath to recover their strength. But it did not last for up to fifteen minutes before they could hear the steps of a dragon coming their way again. From the steps they heard, it was conf

Well, Eric wasn’t stupid to see that the dragon was about to breathe fire and then do nothing. He was already on it. saying a few words which came into his head with the belief that they would result in a magical trick. Just as believed, the words he said silently to himself gave rise to a magical trick opening a little portal which none knew where the portal leads to, and the aim of this portal was not to give take them out of the cave, rather the portal brought about the fire breath of the dragon to go through it to a location unknown to them, causing no harm to come to Zach who was the target of the dragon. With what had just happened, the dragon knew that Eric was a magician, therefore it knew what it was up against. Initially, it thought he was just a mere man, but knowing now that he had magic, it could tell that it would be very difficult for it to kill them alone. What surprised it most was the fact that he had casted a spell without any staff in his hands, and that was a cha
Stuck in my Game World. 157. Dead end.
The path which Eric had taken in order to retrieve the item that caught his attention was truly a dead end as presumed. He came to the end of the road and beheld the thing that had drawn his heart to that place was nothing else other than the perfect weapon on which he knew how to make use of. With excess joy to have seen something like that in a place such as the dragon cave made him freeze. He could not believe his eyes, it was perfect staff and from what he could predict, the staff was not forged by any mortal hand. Being in the dragon cave had a very high significant, based on the knowledge he had about dragons from the real world, they were more of magical creatures than mythical creatures, so he believed that the staff which was found there would have some high level of magic and would also help his powers to be stronger and easier to master. He stared at the staff as he said, “This is absolutely a perfect magical ward for me. With this, my mission here in Palind would be a succ

On Eric's side, he didn't expect that question to be asked, but since it was asked, he could not answer it, so he simply said. "Don't worry baby, everything will be fine. The police are there to protect you and your aunt Lauren." "From who?" She asked again. "From some very bad people." He answered, in order for her to ask another question, he added. "Can you give your aunt the phone?" "Eric, what's going on?" Lauren asked as soon as he received the phone from Jodie. "I promise I'll explain everything to you when I am bad. Just be rest assured that I am not the one they are protecting you from. It's very complicated but I promise you will understand after I've explained everything to you." "Okay bro." "Please be safe and keep Jodie safe." Eric pleaded as they said goodbye. **** Towards evening the next day, Eric Claus and Chase Stevens were called to the police station by the detective and on their arrival, the detective took them to meet a new prisoner under their custody.

It took almost over five hours before the detective in charge of interrogating the suspect came out to meet Eric Claus and Chase Stevens in the police station. "I thought you were asked to leave?" he asked, to my surprise. His question called their attention, so they looked up in shock but without fear since they had committed no offense by staying. "Well," Chase began as he searched for the right words to say that would make the detective understand their reason for not going home as they were asked to. "We just couldn't leave." he said, still unable to find the best words. Eric had to help him out at this point even though he was not totally in support of them staying there for that long. "Were you people able to force the truth out of him? I just can't go home knowing that someone wants me dead and probably why?" That was a good reason to defend and justify their refusal to leave the station and the detective understood quite well so he did have to press further. "Well, you two

190. The arrest.
“Just before you woke up,” Chase began, “He told Lauren and I that he would be removing you from life support because his test showed that you would never wake up again. But upon coming to see you in the ward, we found you awake, that is to say he has found out that you would be waking up any time soon so he wanted to prevent it from happening. When I asked him how it was possible that someone who he presumed to never wake up again was awake and sound, he said he didn’t know and would do some research that would explain it scientifically. He still has not given any response with the claim that he was still doing his research with some of his colleagues.” Now Eric was getting a clear understanding of something that he never put into consideration before now. It was now clear to him why he had to leave the world of Palind, letting them complete the fight which was supposed to be concluded before his departure. So he had no reason to doubt the words and suspicions of Chase. “In that cas

189. Discharged.
The doctor ran another test on Eric Claus early the next morning to confirm whether he was fully fit to leave the hospital and still his results were positive that he did not see any other reason to keep Eric there in the hospital. So he had to break the good news about his discharge so he could prepare to go home. Towards the evening hours of the day, Chase was there with Lauren and Jodie to pick Eric from the hospital and take home. While Lauren and Jodie were with Eric in the room putting together his stuff for departure, Chase went to see the doctor. After a knock on the office door, he was asked to come in and the doctor was instantly eclipsed with shock. Immediately he saw that it was Chase who had come to his office. He knew they were done with all formalities already and he shouldn’t be there again. “Oh, Mr. Chase, is it you again? Hope all is well?” the doctor said while trying to hide his freight. “Yes,” Chase walked up to the desk and with an eye gesture he asked if he c

188. Funny but true.
When he came into the room Eric was still gusting and laughing with his sister and daughter, Chase did not intend to disrupt that moment knowing how much such a moment felt for the family. “I am happy to see such smiles on your faces,” Chase said, “Permission to share at this moment?” “Sure you are free.” Eric answered with gladness. The fun moment lasted for a couple of hours, until it was getting late, so Lauren had to take Jodie home since they came right from school. “Jodie, I guess we should get going now.” “No, I want to spend more time with my dad.” Jodie refused because she didn’t want that moment to end. She was also scared that her father would go into a coma again. “Come on… you will have the time you want with him, he is not going anywhere. Besides, you haven’t gotten home since you closed from school today and you still have homework and school tomorrow.” Lauren gave her some reasons why they have to go home. Eric was quite happy to hear that Jodie has been going to

187. Awake.
Due to the looks on both Lauren and Chase’s face, the doctor could tell what they were thinking but he could not concur with it. “That is not possible.” He opened the door and to his greatest surprise, it was exactly as he had read from the faces of Chase and Lauren, so he froze at the entrance. Seeing the manner in which the doctor became static, Chase and Lauren looked into the room, lo and behold, it was Eric Claus awake and talking to his daughter Jodie Eric. They too could not move for a moment and were short of words to say until Jodie saw them standing static at the door post and said. “Aunt Lauren, look, dad is awake.” “Of course he is…” Lauren replied as he slowly took some steps closer to the bed Eric was lying on. Eric then turned to the door and saw both his boss and the doctor. He was surprised to see Chase Stevens there instead of being in the company. He knew quite well what happened to him and did not need much explanation from them, he only asked one question perta

186. Reality.
The monitor attached to Eric Claus began to beep loudly, alerting the nurses and medical personnel nearby to hurriedly come check on him and find out what was the cause of the sudden beeping of the monitor. The first nurse that ran in noticed his temperature was burning beyond normal and it was something beyond her skills so she rushed out to call the doctor in charge of his treatment while another nurse that followed after her tried to stabilize the situation pending the doctor’s arrival. In a few minutes the doctor came in to check on him and saw that it was more than a normal burning for someone in his condition, and something he hasn’t seen before throughout his entire career, but that was not going to prevent from running some quick test on him. The tests were all reporting strange feedback as they stabilized him with an injection to stop the burning. Soon he began to sweat which was still strange to the professionals. “He is dying,” The doctor gave the only explanation he co

185. Tricked.
After the conversation and argument had come to an end by those words of Eric, the four of them came out of the room to meet General Aaron Gordon, General Morgan Elliot and Prince Reece Cole who were waiting for them outside. “Let’s move out.” King Luca gave the command which they have all been waiting for all these while. Afterwards they got their horses and led the soldiers out of the city of Griffins. Harris had not taken his mind off from what Eric told him, so he was still waiting to hear the outcome of Eric’s discussion with his father. So as they headed for the city of Ironbrook, he rushed forward, coming close to his father and asked in a low tune since he also thought it to be a secret. “Father, how did it go?” Zach’s mind was no longer on that, he did not perceive Harris to keep thinking of that, so he asked back as he looked into his son’s eyes curiously. “How did what go?” Still wanting to keep it a secret, Harris did not answer that question with words but with an ey

184. The argument.
After Harris was out of sight, Zachary Hawkins changed the pretentious discussion. “The King will now see you Eric.” “Okay.” Eric said as they both head to meet with King Luca Cole. In a couple of minutes they were in the king’s presence and Eric said. “Your majesty, you asked to speak with me.” “Yes,” Luca turned towards him. “We are ready to move out, so we want to know if you are set.” “Ermmm….” Eric stammered because he had not told the King about his soon departure and as Zach had advised, it was wise for him to tell the king that he would soon be leaving the country Palind back to his world. he struggled to get the right words to break the news he had for Luca but his facial expression already foretold that what he was trying to say was not something pleasant to be heard. “It’s okay, Eric, you can spit it out and stop bordering on how I will take it.” Luca encouraged him to speak and stopped holding his words. With the readiness and willingness of King Luca Cole to hear wh
