When the carriage arrived at the castle, Ken couldn't help but chuckle, "You're going to learn what it takes to become a bodyguard.""You're making it sound horrifying," Cassio said half-heartedly as he looked outside he carriage, admiring his surrounding. The castle had a very large environment with several orchards, gardens and lawns which cast a natural beauty on the surrounding. The air was also fresh like spring, the atmosphere quite and refreshing.I wonder why you'd still want to leave the castle? as Cassio exited the carriage he couldn't help but shake his head. He then walked into the castle building, going past the grim looking guards who heard long spears. He kept wondering if those guards were just ordinary or they were true knights.Cassio navigated his way through the hallway to the bodyguard room which had become his since Matthew had become crippled for life, his chance of advancing from a Bodyguard shattered. He couldn't help but sigh, wondering why people were so unl
Ugh...Cassio finally opened his eyes, becoming conscious. He blinked his eyes a few times in order to adjust to the intensity of sunlight. Closing them he turned around and stood up before finally opening them."You're awake finally," Ken said. He was performing a sword art, his right hand moving with fierceness to create powerful sword strokes which caused ripples in the air. He stopped and sheathed his sword, his lips curling into a warm smile."I guess..." Cassio said awkwardly. He had never fainted out of fear before in his entire life and this was very embarrassing considering how he had boasted that he would become Ken's bodyguard. It was too embarrassing."Well, you may choose not to go through that part of the training and focus on exercises that will strengthen your body and make you faster," Ken said. "I was already a Bodyguard before I could complete the training here.""Those mechanical soldiers, who creates them?" Cassio asked, becoming very intrigued by the mechanism beh
Damn...that was Cassio's only thought as Ken came flying towards him with clenched fists. Knowing that he couldn't possibly fight Ken, he quickly turned around and ran. Several spikes were immediately shot out of the ground towards him, their metal surfaces reflecting the sunlight.Slash! Slash! Slash!Three spikes immediately got him despite him trying his very best to dodge them all. One slashed below his right eye, another slashed his left arm while another stabbed his right chest. He gnashed his teeth and continued running, relying on his reflexes to become nimble.Bang!Ken was already upon him, punching his back. The impact sent Cassio off the ground into the air, five spikes stabbing into his body. He crashed to the ground and rolled several meters out of the spiky region, spitting blood as he immediately rolled voluntarily to evade Ken's kick which would have gotten his head."You can't become my bodyguard by being weak!" Ken yelled with anger evident in his voice. "In order t
Cassio lay in bed, his teeth gnashing in disappointment as he clenched his fists tightly. Why can't I create my Will Body?! Why am I so useless?! Despite all the rigorous training I can't do anything?!He tried standing up but his entire body hurt very badly, he couldn't perform such an action. He could only lie back helplessly and let out a deep sigh. I need to be stronger so that I can avenge the people I truly loved and was indebted to. Being weak won't make me get back at the barbaric Chaldeans and corrupted Hall of Corruption! He didn't include the Cthulhu Cult in his plans for revenge currently because they had not killed anyone dear to him. Although he might hunt them down in the future when he got the strength, the drive to kill them wasn't as strong as the drive to vanquish the Chaldeans and Hall of Corruption.Soon there was a soft knock on the door, a soft voice asking, "Can I come in?""Yes," Cassio said with a low voice. He couldn't raise his voice because he was very wea
That night Cassio stood at the window looking outside, his mind filled with thoughts. I thought I was the one who felt more pain losing Patrick and Joana in a day. I didn't know there was her sister who would find the whole news devastating. I don't know how deep the pain she's feeling now but it must be definitely greater than all the pain I've felt, including the pain of losing my memory.He stared at Medusa who was sleeping soundly in his bed, tucked under the bedsheet. Her eyes were shut tightly, her lips pursed and her face bearing a sad expression. Seeing her in this condition he couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.This is the last person in the Patrick family, he thought within himself. As Joana's sister my obligation is to protect her and make her happy at all costs. It doesn't matter if I die trying. I won't be that loser who was saved by Joana at the expense of her life. Thinking about this make tears freely flow down his cheeks. He didn't try to suppress the tears and le
Boom! Boom! Boom!More explosions occured in the castle, flames of fire rising high into the air. The fake knights all fought off the zombies which were bursting out of the ground every minute, gradually overwhelming them. Outside the castle walls were unknown true knights trying to breech into the castle, using their powers to the fullest. But there were also true knights of Camelot standing on the walls engaged with a fierce battle with them in order to prevent the Intruders from besieging the castle.Standing several meters away from the onslaught was a man dressed in a black robe with hood, his right hand clutched around a very dark figurine. This figurine had an octopus head with countless tentacles and a humanoid body. These tentacles were embedded with countless eyeballs which seemed very lifelike, possessing nightmarish vitalities."We will get the Cthulhu Mythos and unleash nightmare in the Cosmos!" the man said. "We will awaken Cthulhu!"After saying this an extremely malevo
As Cassio ran he slashed at zombies which came his way, reducing them to mere wisps of smokes. Medusa who was behind him couldn't help but feel a deep sense of security as she held onto him, closing her eyes as he ran with so much speed and agility.Boom!A fireball exploded some meters away from them, crumbling that entire part of the building in front of them. More puffs of smoke filled the whole castle, clouding up Cassio's vision.There's no how to get out of the castle without jumping through that window, Cassio thought to himself as he looked outside the window in the hallway. There were more zombies coming out of the ground or shadows, slaying the fake knights while there were unknown true knights who were locked in an intense battle with the true knights. When these unknown knights were killed, they would immediately transform into zombies and continue their onslaught."How are we getting out of here?" Medusa asked in fright as she looked around her. They were on the fourth fl
The General scoffed as he looked at Cassio with amusement, "we'd because you were able to tank my lightning attacks doesn't make you suddenly invincible. I am still a Tier four General while you're nothing but a Tier two Swordsman." "..." Hearing the General's statement Ken was get shocked. Just earlier Cassio had being struggling through his training and now he was a Tier two knight? This was the most shocking thing he had encountered in his entire lifetime! Wait, he thought within himself. What if he had always being a true knight but hadn't been able to utilize his knight abilities because of his memory loss? Well, that sounds feasible. He might have recovered his memory. But how did he tank the lightning bolts which killed other knights below Tier four? What other secret is this lad holding? Cassio sized up the man with coldness in his eyes as he said, "Invincibility doesn't lie in power level." "Whatever," the General said. "Now is your time to die!" "Then allow me to.
