The Almighty General

world Von

“I'm commander Jax, ruler of the most feared and merciless army teams in the whole universe. Welcome to Von, Hans Ronald."

For a moment I realize that my mouth is gaping open. I close it and try to speak but I can't find my tongue, the man standing in front of me is staring at me coldly.

His eyes are blue and they look like my fingers would freeze if I try to touch them, his hair and his eyebrows are coal black, striking a very dramatic effect against his blue eyes. He's tall, about my height. And he looks strong, too strong. His whole body is toned with sinew muscles and he looks like he was carved out of fine stone by Michael Angelo.

He's goodlooking, so goodlooking that I start to question my looks for the first time in my entire life. There's a scar that runs from his temple down below his ear and there's another one that runs from his collar bone and disappears under his shirt.

His lips are cherry pink, his jaws are hard and he's still staring at me as if he wants to kill me.

“How did you know my name?." I asked him squinting my eyes. He literally rolls his eyes and mutters “people of earth. " Under his breath.

" You were appointed by the system because you have been deemed worthy to become part of our army. It's an opportunity people would kill for. " he says to me but he doesn't try to make an emphasis and I blink my eyes trying to process all he's said to me.... I couldn't even produce a good reply.

" I'll take you to see our king now, he'll explain better. " he says walking out of the big metal room. " Follow me. " he instructs me and he turns away and starts to leave.

I followed closely behind him and we exit a big metal building... We got into a car that I have never seen before and he drove us to a big mansion.

“Is your car a limited edition?." I ask him but he doesn't reply me, he just keeps driving. Am I being kidnapped?.

We reach the building.

It's more of a palace than a family house, it's windows are slim and it's doors aren't too wide, instead they're tall.

And the materials that makes up the building is made out of.... Is that gold and rubies and some kind of metal that I have never seen before.

I almost gasp, taking in the whole grand scenery.

“This is the throne room." Jax explains to me as we walk into the throne room, which is also made out of gold. If there were diamonds too, I wouldn't believe it because what looks like diamonds were too big to be wasted upon a house structure, it should adorn the body instead.

“Welcome, Hans, to Von. The most powerful world in the cosmic!." A commanding voice said distracting me.

I turn to the speaker to see a man, he's tall, with silver grey hair and he's sitting on a throne with the majesty of a lion.

On his head is a big crown, and on his face is a very bright and infectious smile.

My eyes wandered away from the man because another figured had caught my attention. It was a girl, she looked.... Astonishing.

I blinked away from her and placed my attention back to the... King my eyes kept on returning back to this girl.

Her eyes are moving all around my body, scanning and taking in my figure. Now she's staring at me as if she just saw a demigod... I'm used to the attention, I know I'm goodlooking, but there's something about her stare that makes me want to blush and tell her to stop flattering me.

I clear my throat.

“Who are you and how do you know my name?." I asked the man and then Commander Jax walks towards me and he places his hand on my shoulder, which he tightenes as he whipers.

“Speak to our king with respect." Commander Jax orders in a very low but menacing voice.

I swallow hard and he moves away from me, I turn to the King who hasn't wiped that smile off his face.

He seems like a very nice guy.

“I'm King Cypher and if you're wondering how we knew you name... The system had recommended you to us because of your special powers. The thing is, the two most powerful worlds are at war, Von, which is this world in which you stand right now, is being savagely attacked by Tar, the dark corrupted world. They seek nothing but the downfall of Von and slowly, we're all dying." The king said clasping his hands together, his whole demeanor has changed, his shoulders are slumped and his smile has been replaced with a frown.

The girl, sitting on a smaller but beautiful chair beside his, coughs and my eyes wanders to her. She's wearing a crown, is she his wife?.

She's too young to be his wife and although King Cypher looks handsome, she looks like she's an offspring of Zeus and Helen of Troy.

She's so goddamned beautiful, I think to myself.

“This is my daughter, Diane." King Cypher says to me and I nod. I don't address girls and I'm not going to start here.

“Address the princess!." Commander Jax says, returning his painful grip on my shoulder, once again reminding me that he's standing just beside me but he's as silent as a graveyard.

“No!." I say to him and push his hand away from my shoulder. I'm not used to being bossed around, I give the orders!.

“Is there a problem?." King Cypher asks.

“Your majesty, everything is alright." Jax says.

“Let me cut through the chase. The world, Tar are much more advanced in technology than we are. They're more advanced than any other planets in the Cosmos. Luck shines on us when your system informs us that you have the exact same powers we need, the strength of a god, the ruthlessness of a million soliders combined, the power to make and destroy worlds…raw power that resides in you, we need your help Hans, we need you to save Von, please. " The King says taking off his crown which makes the people in the room gasp, except his daughter, Diane who's is still staring at me, immediately my eyes lands on hers, she takes them off and places them somewhere else.

" Wait what?." I asked almost hysterically. The whole thing the 'King' Cypher said starts to replay in my head and I can't stop myself from laughing hard.

“Wait, is this some kind of reality TV show, come on where is the camera?." I asked turning around the room, half expecting the crew of this TV show to burst through the doors congratulating me for figuring it out quickly, but nobody moves a muscle or even breaks a smile, they're being serious.
