Chris shivered as he bit his fingernails while watching how the beasts that he had recently gained were being taken down like that.

Even the elder earth wyrm was instantly knocked out, considering its gigantic size. He’d expect to at least have time to get Asron out of there during the entire commotion, but after seeing how they could handle them. It made him wary of the guards’ capabilities since they could truly rival Asron.

“You understand now? The royal army isn’t just for show, their very formidable. Unless you will find people of that same caliber, you won’t stand a chance against the royals, even with that power of yours.”

Rombus took in a deep breath.

The fellow had followed him there along with the others after he insisted he wanted to see things for himself.

“I know.”

Was all Chris could say as he had his hopes up.

Though he failed, he could now gauge the strength of the said group and their fighting capabilities to decide.

If he would meet certain requirements, then the possibility of the skill working would increase.Though he was not that verse in warfare, there was one factor that he learned from his old world, as he had always enjoyed playing games and reading.First was to set up a secured camp, with the place that Asron chose for them and how the forest wall mange to hold up. He instantly scratched that out on his list.The thing he needed to do now was increase the safety and security of the area, and since everyone was busy doing their work, no one notice when he traveled back to the location of the battle to get a better view of the surrounding.With the help of the elder wyrms, he had them dig trenches all around the territory of the region.

    The loud snap of metal rattled through the air as another sword shattered in two. Cheers and holler from the youngsters that were gathered there followed it.“Damn Cortus, that’s the second one you broke.”A young drogan about the same age as him whined, seeing that the warrior had broken his weapons.“Seems those are not as sturdy as mine.”Cortus started waving and twirling to show off his skills, boasting that impressive and unscathed spear of his. For the most of their training, hunting and battle, the object never dulled or chipped.Out of all the weapons there, he was now considered something that of a legendary item because of its unique properties.“Where you get that, anyway? I bet we’d be as good as you if we had the same thing.”Another youth blurted out, getting annoyed at how the fellow was boasting.“You certain about that?”Cortus arched a brow.“You bet you!”One more state.As the craftsmanship was unknown to them, it had this sense of magic and a mystery to them, see

    “Those are quite the weapons they have there.”A voice greeted upon sitting next to him on the grassy hill, watching the young drogans go at it with each other with all their might.Of course, Cortus was kicking the ass off everybody else, using the broadsword as a shield to defend, and it created frightening attacks that shattered the earth. He kept breaking the ground and then throwing chunks of it at the others.But thanks to their own items, the youngsters made full use of their own skills and equipment, matching those monstrous assaults.“Cushar, I didn’t notice you there.”Chris chuckled seeing the wizard beside him. They hadn’t been talking for the past days, as he asks for the fellows opinion, causing him to become busy making sure that the plants that he made were safe.“You have quite the talent there, little one.”The mage gestures at the things that were being carried by the young soldiers as they waved them with pride.“Thank you.”He felt a bit embarrassed, as the ones t

Though the roots and branches were quick create a barrier, some could still make it through, which cause a ton of other carnivorous once to react to it.“What the hell happened to this place?”“How should I know? Just keep running!”Hooded people slashed their way as they ran at full speed, avoiding and cutting through the plants.Roars followed the group as more figures came crashing into the land, rushing, drooling, and munching on any moving things around them.In minutes, whispers lingered throughout the woods as they try to reach the recesses of the one who controlled them.“What is it, Chris?”Cortus pauses their practice when he noticed how his friend was looking at the surroundings, turning silent for a moment, even though they were chatting a while ago.“Something’s coming.”Was all he could say, unable to diverge the message all around him.

    Cushar and Chris helped when the others arrived, seeing as there were still a lot of those things that had gotten through the tree wall.They swarmed the place, numbering to almost a thousand, and looking at the enormous swarm caused them to step in and fight alongside their companions.After the entire ordeal, the cloaked grouped turned to them with a furrow.“Why is a child here?”Was the first thing that the warriors spouted the moment they appeared before them.“Chris, you weren’t supposed to be here.”Barlan’s eyes grew wide when he saw them. He ended up wiping his face in frustration at seeing them there.“If we were not here, those things would probably have eaten your friends there.”Cushar defended, pointing at the men who survived because of the defensive shrubs that were created around them, not to mention all the large roots and spikes that gave protection to the others.Because of their efforts, there weren’t any casualty, though much of the area was damaged because the m

    “Our fort is being pushed back. If we don’t do something about it, we will lose the fight against the krads.”Orboc, one of the eastern scouts that they rescued, slammed his fist on the table.They were currently debating on what was to be done after the whole situation. Thankfully, Chris could join, thanks to Cushar’s recommendation.“Why aren’t you asking the royals?”Rombus grumbled with an arch brow at the drogans. If this was such a problem, it was only proper that the capital handle it, rather than their village.“We have. We’ve sent several convoys for the past months, but they still wouldn’t send us supplies.”Laslon, another of the scouts, states, his shoulders falling upon remembering how they got turned down by their liege.“That is why we came here for lord Asron to convince the king. We need aid, and fast.”It was Tensel, the third and leader of the group, who adds.As he listened in on their woes, it seems they were truly relying on their hero for help. Yet, they were un

    “Could you not just give them the seeds and let them handle it themselves?”Herlein kept saying though she was already packing an entire basket of stuff for him. All the while she sniffed, trying to hold on to the sobs that wanted to escape her.“I’m not sure how long it’s going to take to grow them if I do not do it myself. Besides, Cortus and Cushar are also coming, so I am certain I will be safe.”Chris assures her that everything was fine.Though it pained him to leave them there, he saw that as an opportunity to help the eastern fort and to establish a means of observing the area.After careful deliberation, he’d suggested to have his special fruit-bearing trees planted on the site, since doing so would allow the army to have a steady supply, which in turn would make them more sustainable and self-sufficient.“But will you be all right? I hear the eastern lands are quite harsh and plants hardly grow there.”The female drogan was now covering him in light clothing. From his neck t

    “We are almost there, right?”Chris groaned, placing the sticks of fish that they caught a while ago.It had been a month now, and they were still traveling. The worst part of it was that the place that they were going to seem to be a desert.As there wasn’t anything in sight except grass and huge cactus like flora. He finally understood why Herlein insisted he bring lots of gourds along with covering up in light clothing.“Yeah, halfway probably.”Cushar chuckles, the wizard started was starting the fire for their food.It had been a rigorous day, and they were all tired from the lengthy journey. They continued to move until sundown; it did not help that they kept encountering krads every once in a while.“I never thought that we’d take this long. This place is farther than the capital.”He remembered that it only took them about two weeks to get to that place, but here the travel point was several times longer, which worried him.He’d guessed that they could return to the village wi

    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

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.

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

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

    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

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

    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

    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
