Stuck in my Game World. 99. Information is power.
Seeing that Zach lay down again, he thought maybe that was the time he wanted to start his sleep so he did not throw any question, but lied back with him as they were lying before the conversation kicked off.Even as they lied back again, sleep did not come into their eyes as they were just counting the stars quietly and observing the beauty of the night sky.When Eric later noticed that Zach had not fallen asleep as he thought and the night was not coming to an end, he thought it best if they finished the conversation as he asked his questions. "Since King Cole had settled with the orcs, what led to the war again?""Don't you ever get tired?" Zach asked him. "Of course I do, but I need to gather all the information about the world I am meant to save. Where I come from, there is a popular saying that information is power so I need all the information I can get concerning your world."Zach thought deeply about the words he had spoken of and it was clear to him why he was asking those

Well, Eric Claus was not ready to give up, nor was he ever going to give up especially now that they had come out of the country to that territory being dominated by monsters.At this point, the sky was beginning to brighten up again, so it was even safer ro Zach as he believed that he would be able to continue the journey alone, leaving Eric to return to Palind if he wants, and continue to deceive the people as he thought and concluded."Zachary Hawkins, this is not who you are," Eric tried speaking sense to him. "Everything I have told you about myself is true. I only discovered my magical powers recently.""Lies…" Zach shut him out. "All lies. That is all you know how to do. You are not who you made us believe you are. No wonder the prophecy changed the moment you showed up in our country. I believe the seer had seen this right from the first day he set his eyes on you but you used your powers to stop him from saying it out. You manipulated him with your powers."Eric knew at this
Stuck in my Game World. 101. If I win....
Zach walked a long distance without knowing that Eric kept following because Eric had shut his mouth as he saw that Zach would not answer nor look at him again.When the sun was now high, Zach chose to rest, so he sought for shade to hide from the heat. It was in the process of looking from somewhere to rest that he realized that he was being followed by Eric.Eric had kept his distance, that was the reason why Zachary was unable to know that he was still following him."What are you still doing here?!" Zach asked him with anger as he was ready to fight him even when he knew death could not take Eric. At this point he was ready to die by the hands of Eric Claus and that was because he was not sure of his son being alive and he also knew that there was no way he would survive the journey, challenging and defeating the orcs all by himself.Eric was now very amazed at what his eyes were seeing. It was very clear to him that Zach wanted a fight which was the last thing he was going to do.
Stuck in my Game World. 102. We should move.
Through Zach's steady watch, Eric was able to know what was going on in his heart, so there was a lot of need for him to keep alert and avoid the distraction Zach needed. In due time while they rested, they could now hear the sound of the monsters of the territory, therefore it was known that their journey had just begun. Nevertheless, the sounds they heard were as a result of Zach's scream. His voice was the thing that attracted the monster in question. "We should move," Eric stood to his feet after hearing the sound as he threw his suggestion. At this moment, there was no way Zach could focus on casting Eric out of his sight. Despite the fact that he wanted to die, being a human made him scared of death as nobody would naturally see death coming his way and still stand. So he took the opinion of Eric at once, rising also to his feet with his weapon held firmly in his hands, ready to fight whatever attacks them. "Now is not the time to fight, Zach...." Eric warned him as he coul

Now Eric and Zach along with five orcs appeared in different locations after the flash of light. The light was the source of their teleportation, to this new location where they haven't been to before. It was still somewhere in the outer world. The five orcs that had teleported with them, could not fight again as the light had drained their strength. Adding to this, they did not come with their weapons, so they were defenseless against Zach and Eric. Also their arms and legs were tied, so automatically, they were captives of Eric.Now Zach was very much convinced about Eric's powers. It was not something to doubt again, and since the few orcs that had come there with them were in chains, there was no need to fight as they were not going anywhere."How did you do that?" Zach asked Eric in a very low tone. He was happy and also angry at the same time Eric had saved him from death which his heart was set on."How do you want me to describe your feelings now? Are you happy or angry?" Eri

Even with what has just happened and the terror in his face while he threatened the creatures, they showed no concern as they knew at once that he was the magician which their leader had asked them to find and bring his head. Being in chains made that to me an impossible task as they were sure of their death. Since they were hearing his words as though it was orcish language, they believed that he was also understanding what they said. Therefore it was as a result of what the other one said that has made him to slay it without second thoughts "How do we trust that you would not kill us after telling you what you seek to know?" One of them asked Eric since they knew that their fate was sealed. "That is only if you tell me the exact truth and nothing else. Mind you, I will know when you tell lies." Eric sounded a warning to them before he hit straight to the question of the day. But before he would begin his question, another orc said, "I am not going to be a part of this. You would

Eric was now touched by those saying, as he could see that the orc was ready to give its maximum cooperation. "I will keep to my word and will not hand you over to him when you are done telling me what I want to know." He just said those words. Well, the orc was not going to trust him, it never did. It only said what it said earlier only so that it would prolong the time of its living, pending the time when it would find a means and strategy to escape from their hands. "Since the route to our base is very deadly, I will suggest that I lead you through some hidden paths that will bring you to the boy safely without harm." At the sound of this Eric knew what the orc was up to that he wanted to react but Zach stopped him with his words. "What are you about to do? You just told me not to hit it yet you want to hit it." Eric held up his arm in the air and slowly brought it down without landing the strike on the orc again. Zachary, who had stop him from hitting the orc knew very well tha
Stuck in my Game World. 106. Is that a threat or what?!
After some hour of being led by the orc through the paths of the outer world which they had no clue where it was taking them, they came before a mountain and the orcs still insisted that they go through the cave that was in the mountain. At this point, Zach was now beginning to sense evil as his heart was no longer in support of passing that path. He had to say to Eric. "Remind this creature that its life is in our hand, so that it would not do something stupid or funny." Though his words were not direct but Eric understood better that his heart was being to conceive that was why it needed the orc to know what will come up on it if the path it was leading them to was the wrong path to go. So he did as he was told by saying to the orc in human language. "Remember I will send you to hell if it is realized that you are walking us into our death." "That is if you are not dead before then," the orc muttered in the language it knew how to speak. At this point, since it was not audible e

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.

191. Endangered lives.
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
