The wizard was all over their leader the moment he could join them. The group was now making their way through the forest, as it turned totally distorted after the little human’s attacks.
The entire place has changed completely, not just the terrain, but also the flora. They were more alive and acting on their own, as branches and flower seem to gaze at them.
But it seems only Asron, and the Cushar had taken notice of this, as their eyes kept taking glancing at the plants while their two companions were oblivious to the surroundings.
“You have quite the mouth.”
He just murmured, looking at the still sleeping human in his arm. Even if he notice

“What happened to the mercenaries that you’ve sent? Why haven’t they returned yet?”King Duseous slammed his fist on the side of his throne, causing it to crack. The drogan’s jaw tightened as there was no development of his orders.It had been weeks, but there have been no signs that they had done what he had ordered, making the royal frustrated.“Apologies, there is still no news, my king.”The right hand lowers his head, swallowing hard. There has not been an update from them in days, which was causing panic within their ranks.“How can it be so difficult to dispose of one measly little child?”Duseous was growing impatient. He could not remain calm, knowing that the drogan warrior had someone as

“Sorry if you have to watch over me. I know you really wanted to go with them.”Chris sighed as he grunted, putting all his frustrations in hitting the ground to break it. He was on farming duty today, and Asron clarified he could not use magic.And to make sure of that, they left him with a bodyguard as the warriors had to leave the village at that day.“It’s all right, those fellows who went after you were not normal. They were well trained. I’d rather not leave my human friend alone and unprotected.”Cortus chuckled. They put the guy in charge of watching over. As being one of the strongest in the village, together with the other two older fighters.“Thanks, by the way. Where did the others go to this time? I thought I saw them heading for t

“So, I really can’t go out of the village, can I?”Chris groaned as he slump on his table. He was in a barn house turned into a hut for the wizard. At the far end of the place.That day he was out into the mage’s care, as the others went on a hunting trip, leaving him to assist with whatever the person needed.“You’re adoptive father seems to be quite protective of you.”As Cushar had only arrived there, the only things that they were doing as of the moment were cleaning up the place and setting some of his stuff.“So, what will you be teaching me today?”Chris groaned. He thought that if he was going to stay there with the guy, might as well gather knowledge from him. It was the least he could do, considering that his time gets wasted.“

It was a quiet afternoon, and everybody was busy with their own duties in the village. They’d just secured a large prey, so everyone was helping with preparing the animal. The females were readying herbs and their pots for cooking and preserving, while the children ran around doing errands.Chris had managed to finish his sword lessons for the day, so he was hanging out with Cushar, continuing with his magical studies.All the while that this was happening, a large group had already started marching for the forest where the peaceful settlement was. The army comprised drogans loyal to the royal family, wanting to prove their mettle and strength.Among them was general Kerruf, and his three hundred powerful warriors at the ready. They gathered just near the border of the woods.“Sir, are you certain about this? We are talking about the hero Asron here.”

“Where are we going? I thought I’m not allowed to leave the village.”Chris yawned as he sat down on the carriage.They’ve been traveling for a few hours now, and memory serves him correct, the pathway they were moving on was heading out of the forest, which was connected to the road to the capital.“Asron wanted to see us. He says it’s urgent.”Cortus answers. His expression was full of life, with an excited glimmer in his eyes, all the while he was driving the carriage.Chris turns to Cushar, who was sitting on the other side of the wagon, but only received a shake of his head to say he too knows nothing, either.It was only after passing by the last river that they finally notice the caravan that had stopped by the road.“What’s going on?

Chris could not help pondering at what was going on, no matter how many times they keep telling him it was not his fault. He felt he had somewhat caused the gears of war to turn.He did not realize that there’s been a civil conflict happening in those lands. All because he was so engrossed with his need to return home that he had completely disregarded what was occurring there.He no longer had the luxury of fooling around, gathering info and studying the place. He now needed to act, else he won’t be able to get out of there.“Cushar, what’s the king’s problem with Asron?”He asks, curious why they were currently in that predicament. Last time he remembers, the fellow was even asking for help from the capital, so it made little sense.“Oh, so t

“Rombus, where is Asron?”Chris asks.The drogan had arrived almost late at night, alone. His gaze was lifeless and there was this shadow looming over his face when they went up to him.“He’s surrendered himself in exchange that the king does not lay his hand on these lands.”The old guy states, clenching his trembling fist as he gritted his teeth.The news cause a ruckus as the entire group of people there mumbled and chatter things about what was going on. Is cost an unrest that some of the young warriors panicked.“That’s just stupid!”Cortus roared, throwing a sharp gaze at their companion as he stepped up.But before he could even

“Herlein, are you all right?”Chris asks. He felt worried about her situation, seeing that her mind was blanking out.Though the female drogan tried to hide it, he’d been hearing her crying for almost the whole day after they found out about what his husband did. She immediately broke down at the news of it to the point she couldn’t stop wailing.“I’m sorry, little one. I just wasn’t expecting this.”She quickly wipers her eyes before facing him. They were currently in the middle of packing some of their clothes, as everyone in the village was told to evacuate.Without their leader, their sanctuary was now helpless in the face of the royals, if ever they decide to attack.“Don’t worry, I’ll get Asron back.”He’d found ou

Prologue An impending doom
Within the darkness, on a floating platform made of trees, vines, and krad carcasses, was Chris, sitting on a throne of spikes and bent trunk, along with the wriggling doctor. The roots of the fauna continued to grab hold of the now silent machinery, as it too remained helpless in the void.“We can breathe! Fascinating.”Steinz chuckled, as they were both able to remain alive, even within the emptiness of the space. A thing which was impossible. The chill prevailed, together with the silence, but it did not bother both of them, being protected by the makeshift vessel.“Let’s see you enjoy it when you get bored with the place.”Chris grumbles, sighing as he narrowed his gaze onto the infernal device. The object may have stopped, but he was certain its power remained.“I am positive we can find a way to kill boredom in someway.”The old geezer let out another cackle, enjoying his weightlessness, swimming within the nothingness like a serpentine fish. He used his webs as an anchor, makin

The skies began opening up, tornadoes appeared increasingly. It started wreaking havoc, along with the continued earthquakes.Chris witnessed it all, watching how the land was breaking because of the machine. He took in a deep breath, feeling the drudge in his chest, contemplating on his plan if it will work.He’d been starting there for an hour now, and all this time, he was having doubts because of the fear which was nudging inside of him.He was so far in his thoughts that he hardly notice the portal opening nearby. Out came Raynald, a healed up Oliver, and the others.All of them stunned to see him just standing there, unmoved by all the chaos, looking into the nothingness with lifeless eyes.“Matriarch, everything all right?”It was the sergeant who asked, being the only one bold enough to approach and check up on him.That wake him from his dreamlike state, sensing those familiar energies. He smiles, having those warm presence surrounding him.Them being there somehow jolted his

Chris stared above, watching that beautiful large planet in the sky. He smiles, unable to believe that they are going to collide with such a gorgeous thing.He turns his gaze to the pyramid, humming non-stop. Spike roots rot around it, barely touching the area. The golems which tried to go near the site all crumbled.Once again, he fires a shot. The beam deflects, ricocheting on the nearby tree.He clicks his tongue in frustration. The machine had created its own barrier. He could only find out after getting pushed back when he approached it.“Fascinating, isn’t it? My life’s work.”The gurgling voice states.Chris’s eyes rolled, huffing in irritation before turning to the now crawling geezer.The old man’s head popped out of the body of a large beetle larvae, web like mucus continued to flow out of him, three hands twitching with excitement.Even in his new form, the fellow remained pompous of his job, as it showed in how he gaze at the mechanism.“Yes, I would have commended you for

After an hour of fighting, general Gently’s men started retreating, disappearing within the covers of the mist. The man himself withdrew into the veil of that thick, grayish cloud.The doctor’s lackeys cheered in triumph, having push back their enemy who tried to destroy their weapon. All of them letting out laughs, because even the monsters that were charging in had vanished.Chris watch as the group celebrated their victory and after a thorough observation, he confirmed his theory about them.Once they became complacent enough, he makes his move, stepping out of the guise of the fog calmly.“I knew you were still alive. Doctor Howard Steinz.”He states, narrowing his sights at the man who stood in the middle of them all.The geezer’s smile faded, frowning upon seeing him walk unfazed in front of all those men.The crowd was quick to gather, blocking themselves in defense of the elderly fellow.Those who had a barrier ability created a gigantic dome, protecting both the machine and t
Chapter 228 Decisive Battle
Above them, the cloud ridden sky sparked and roared, as the unrivaled beings clashed with each other.Behind them, booms of cannons and rattling of machine guns continued, and in front, debris would fall off from the top, while flashes of different colored lights would appear, together with the sounds of explosions.Chris remained still, staring at the two individuals flying in the air while cooking up a plan inside his head.“Matriarch, you think it was wise to use him?”It was Finny, fidgeting from the pressure in the atmosphere.Both superpowers kept releasing an immense trace of energy, reaching down below.It continued to make them sense the overpowering presence, causing the unbearable sensation of staying there, since they still got that fear of the danger being close by.“Zero can handle himself.”He mutters the name they gave him, confident that the being is strong enough to take on his opponent.The only trouble they had was the stray beam falling down, blowing up a portion

Chris narrowed his eyes, feeling every bit of his body trembled in anticipation. His adrenaline was trashing about, his hearts continued to pump uncontrollably fast.The amount of aura the man was releasing was as he had expected, inciting a higher excitement in him.A grin formed inside his mask, unable to hide the sheer joy he was experiencing from relief.“Get him out of here.”He orders, not removing his eyes on the guy.From having witnessed the battle with Oliver unfold a moment ago, he was now used to his speed, so he realized how much effort he needed to exert to stop him.Though he stood straight, his fingers were twitching, alert to take out his weapon if the fellow tried to move from his place.A portal opened beside the wounded youngster, letting out Harold, Raynald, Finny, and Marco. All four were wearing masks, hiding their identity from the guy.The double S class stayed in a steady battle pose, weary of beginning an attack after that. Especially because his wound conti
Chapter 226 To be the strongest
The force that Oliver released blasted away all five mercenaries.The others caught the effects of his sudden surge, because of the wind blowing from him from the pressure.The double S class, Carl, who grinned lasciviously while looking down on the events as it unfolded, also mesmerized by the dazzling display.Oliver’s armor completely changed. It now glistened with a blinding white light, the design on each piece that he wore became more intricate.“What did he do?”Nikolai, the serpentine user, was gritting his teeth, trying to keep himself steady.The pressure being thrown at them made it difficult to move. It’s weight pushing them down to the ground.When everything settled, they all sensed an impending gap in their levels, just by looking at the youth.Oliver can feel the power surging through every vein in his body, increasing all his senses.It was as if it turned him invincible at the moment, having an overflowing amount of energy, along with becoming so light on his feet.W
Chapter 225 A decisive gamble
Oliver’s heart raced, each time someone turns his way, his blood rushing as he continued moving in the mist's guise. His every motion stayed silent, quick, and fluid.He pauses when he reaches the summit, as the clearing no longer provided any kind of protection. It was where the opening yet did not have any area to hide.He takes a few huffs of breath, shutting his eyes to muster his courage, readying himself for what he is about to do.Once done, he did not hesitate to take a step forward, having put all his mind into it. In seconds, he dashes about five meters into the clearing, but his momentum was not enough to reach the gap.“It’s the sniffer!”One soldier got a glimpse of him, gaining the attention of the others. All those that were in reserve promptly rush to the site.But he had already broken through the force field, slamming his shield right into it without a problem.He uses the sudden pause as a leverage to shift his movement, turning to his side to head towards the pyram
Chapter 224 A single man's risk
Flames, flashes of light, and debris mixed into the mist. There was barely nothing to see there because of it.Screams of terror, despair, and anger filled the air, along with the explosions and shots now and then.Deep within the middle of it all, Oliver was pulling his father to the safety of a nearby mound that he saw. Away from all the beams, bullets, and other stuff that were flying around.“Come on, dad.”He urges, as his old man could no longer move, groaning with each motion because of the wound on his legs.They froze in place, hearing a loud clicking sound behind. Instinctively, he let out a shield, blocking a claw in the nick of time.He winced, receiving the brunt and weight of the force, his bones cracking, forcing him to bend his knee to weaken its pressure.Huge mandibles began munching on his defense, attacking to break through it, while its scythe claws pulled at him. All he could do was tug at it, drawing its attention to hide his father from those large, dark, insec
