This bed isn't as good as I want it to be. I really miss my house. But I guess these are the conditions I have to live with. I can't fall asleep. Everything just seems to be getting worse. In a little bit. I'm going to be searched out by the organizations. And hunted down. I have no idea what I need to do. I'll rest for now.
"WAKE UP. FROM TODAY ONWARDS. I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU LAYING IN BED LATER THAN 6 IN THE MORNING"
Are you crazy? That was awfully loud. Please quiet down.
"... Since this is the first day. I'll let that go. Trust me. You speak to me again that way and it won't end the same way. I'm not the same person I was yesterday. Since you accepted my terms for training. You'll follow them. Get out... of bed... NOW!"
Fine fine. Medki or whatever.
I didn't know it at that time. But this training would be the most important aspect of my life. It was the reason I'm here to tell my story. For the next couple of days. I did unimaginable training. Day one started off with pure hand to hand combat. I fought onwards every day till it was midnight. Slept and woke up then did the same again. Days using my powers and skills. But other days just hands.
The reason being is that sometimes I might not be able to use my skills. Therefore I needed to be ready. But the worst of it all. Was that in the midst of all that fighting during the day. I was barely getting anything to eat. To enforce my stamina and mind. I needed to be on an empty stomach when I fought. It was hell having to run around the cave for over three hours as well.
But despite all of that. I could feel myself getting stronger. I could feel myself... Getting better. At noticing things I previously wouldn't have noticed. I learned some special skills. Like concealing my energy to hide myself. I already knew how to do that. Or so I thought before I was told that I was doing it completely wrong.
But one of those training days. It striked me. I was on the verge of passing out after having fought from sunrise to sunset using powers. I was out of energy. Then it happened. When Medki dashed towards me. I felt a huge powerup. I could feel myself being powered with energy by something... Something special. It felt like someone was pouring energy onto me. And only later in my life do I discover that it's the key to the Yr Clan Set Skills.
Hey medki. I felt energy pouring into me today. When you dashed towards me. I could feel myself being healed with energy. Know what that could be about?
"Interesting... Powering up with energy? I've never heard of anything like that. It could be important in battle. Keep it in mind for tomorrow. For now go rest."
A Month Later
"Youre ready, Zain. Go out and finish your objective. I hope you come far in life. I've taught you everything I know. Your energy is different. I can feel it. You've become just that much stronger."
Thank you. I'll be heading out now.
Ah. This is it. Once I stepped out of this cave. Once I stop holding my energy back. It'll be it. The time for me to be hunted. Every organisation is ready for it. But... So am i. At Least i think so.
Here I go...
"BOSS. WE HAVE LOCATED THE ARTIFACT POSSESSOR ZAIN. HE'S JUST UNLEASHED HIS ENERGY. ALMOST LIKE HE WANTS! US TO HEAD THERE."
"After a month of disappearing he thinks he can appear again and challenge all of us? Today is his last day. Prepare the army. And move out"
IMPOSSIBLE. In the first... Just the first seconds of me starting to not hold my aura back... It happens. They've almost already arrived? I can feel over a thousand soldiers. Warriors. Blood hungry warriors.
From the east... It seems it's him again. Owner of the Nightfall Castle. I learnt his name thanks to Medki. It's... Wright. Whilst from the West... It's the same organisation who sent the assassin Cain my way. A very healthy generation with money... It's Lunar! Both organisations are extremely powerful. But... I believe I can take them on. They've only brought their strongest soldiers. Along with themselves. If I'm able to set some ground rules for this fight... I'll wi- What the hell? Was that a laser ray that missed me?
"It's Zain isn't it? The possessor of the Artifacts. Challenging us organisations. You know. While Wright and me... Lunar! Might be on the front lines. There are just that many more organisations that I admit... Are stronger. What makes you think in your right mind that you'll take all of us on? What gives you so much confidence? If that laser ray a mere soldier of mine shot at you. Barely hit..."
Confidence? I don't really have that. I've just been training. That's all I'll tell you. My confidence is non-existent. But my will is strong. The will to resurrect my friend Vex is stronger than ever. Or atleast find out what happened that day. And you seem to be standing in my way. I would really like to ask you to step away. But I don't really think that's going to happen, is it?
But I guess that's fine... I want your strongest soldiers. Come
"That's your answer... Your will? A mere transferred human given powers gets this much confidence and calls it will? A mere human grieving over another mere human. That's alright. I'll follow up with your request. I'll send my strongest soldiers. And I think Wright over there will do the same. And if you somehow manage to live that... Goodluck with us..."
I don't need luck. Move aside. I know you're not here to fight me. The final boss doesn't appear at the start of the game does he now?
"Wright. Is this an alliance I see? You've been quiet at the back with your soldiers. It seems like you have the same intention as me. Just not the same energy."
"You could call it an alliance... But I have other plans. Any wrong move... And I won't hesitate to get rid of your army. Take my word for it"
"Well now then. Soldiers of Wright. Warriors of Lunar. As planned... Charge and bring me Zain's head."
They're coming hah. This is their plan. An all out attack... Except all of these are mere soldiers. I did want their strongest soldiers. But I guess that's another side dish. This is to tire me out. Fine then. I'll match their energy.
First skill. Soul Harvest. Summon, 100 Zombie Soldiers.
Yes this is it! The sight of unknown enemies! 100 Zombie Soldiers to be exact! Throw them off! Their high chanting energy. In the desert was wiped. I picked this desert on purpose. This desert is the perfect fighting location with no one else interrupting. On a sunset. A desert would be getting especially annoying to fight in for mere soldiers like them. But training in that cave. Allowed me to feel more comfortable wherever I'm fighting. Such as this desert. Well... Enough chit chat.
It seems a quarter of their soldiers were wiped already. Whilst only about 10 of my 100 soldiers have perished. These soldiers have definitely gotten stronger with my training.
What will you do now? Lunar and Wright. Will you let your soldiers die like this? The same Soldiers were supposed to tire me out. Perishing under mere seconds. Almost half of them have been wiped in just five minutes. Give it ten minutes and all of them will perish. I wonder what you're thinking with this sight! Lunar and Wright!
"Boss... Half of our soldiers have been wiped... Do you wish to do anything about this? Dear Wright."
"Didn't i tell you to only notify me for important messages? You think half of our soldiers weaker than mere guardians are worth a notification? Get back to your post. This desert is big enough. We can set THAT! Plan in motion if we need to. These soldiers have accomplished their mission. To lure out energy from Zain that is. He's already summoned 100 Zombie Soldiers."
"Yes boss."
I'm tired... I finally cleared those Warriors. But their plan worked. Using up all of those Soldiers and having to control them with energy from afar really tired me. I'm panting as it is now. And it's almost a complete sunset. Fighting in the dark would be a problem.
Wait... I can't lower my guard down. Any second now... Their strongest soldiers will be sent. Now that I'm tired out... They'll send wave 2... The better more advanced soldiers. As for wave 3 being their side men. The people second in command. I learnt all this thanks to medki. But I also learnt how to deal with each wave.
I need to get off the ground. Stand on my legs and focus up. Here they come... Wait what? Who's this? Its familiar energy. What... But how... Are they here?
RHYDEN! LYXERIA AND KORIAN? What brings them here... This throws everything off plan. That plan I was gonna use... Wait no. Never mind, this allows me to create new possibilities.
"Thought you might need a little help. After all, you're fighting more than two organisations at the same time. With their leaders being here..."
Korian... I'll take it. In the past we've had our differences. But let's throw that aside. I'll take your help. Taking these people down is our main objective now.
"Trust me... If you think we are as weak as we were back then... Think again... Let me tell you. Each and every one of us has three skills now. All useful for battles"
Three skills? In such a short duration? Have they been training too? Did they know of this?
"Medki is it... He was training you too? He did so in the past. And we repeated the same training whilst fighting guardians to get stronger too."
Amazing... Then back me up... Because this is our fight. If we don't win here... We will perish. Everything everyone has worked for. Make sure to give it your all. Because this is our last stand.
This is our last stand. I need to focus up. Change of plans needs to happen. I was supposed to do... that... But I have to change it now. I need to change it. I need to show a different plan. One including Rhyden, Korian and Lyxeria. One that I hadn't thought of... Wait... That's it... The answer is in those three. I'm overthinking it. The answer I'm looking for... It's right in front of me...
Rhyden, Korian and Lyxeria. Whatever I'm doing. Make sure to lead the way after alright? I have a plan. Just trust me.
"It works better. We're putting everything on the line after all. There's no room for errors. Whatever you have on your mind. Make sure it's done with pinpoint accuracy."
YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THAT. BECAUSE THEIR STRONGEST SOLDIERS ARE COMING TOWARDS HERE. BE READY!
This is it. It's a lot of Aura. I can sense it... I can sense so much aura being given off. Almost a thousand times more than ours... This is really wave 2. 100 Simple soldiers wouldn't do the job now. It would never even work on one of them I bet. These skills the three of them have got during their training. It needs to be good to the point of useful use in various situations.
Rhyden. You go ahead first. I'm kind of exhausted already. Ill send my fourth skill. Spectral Slash towards him... This is your chance. Head on with Korian whilst I think of a plan.
Rhyden? Are you there?
As I looked behind me... I was met with shock and terror...
Rhyden? Why... Wh-y is there a sword in your heart?
No... It can't be... Reality Overwrite. The same skill that causes skills to backfire. THE SAME SKILL. Rhyden... it can't be... By having myself use my fourth skill. Spectral Slash. That same masked man. Used his skill... Reality overwrites causing the sword to go in Rhyden instead... I was killed... Rhyden...
I promise... I promise I won't forgive you for this. Wright. I will kill you and that masked man. That killed Rhyden. Mark my words... I will have your head for dinner. In the sunrise... It will be your head shining on a silver plate...
Secret Skill... Eclipse Of The Soul.
I hope you die the most painful death in the world. Wright.
Lyxeria and Korian... Use your skill. An energy shield. Shield Rhyden with it. And pray you survive...
Because here comes the Eclipse...
"BOSS. WE NEED TO MOVE. IT SEEMS LIKE ZAIN HAS USED THAT SKILL. TH-"
"He... Perished that quickly? I underestimate that skill... I guess ill get a little rough. Or else ill really die. He ignored my second wave. And sent it only to me. Ignoring half of the second wave. Leaving the other half to die. Including me. Interesting Zain. It seems like my loyal servant here. Used reality distortion causing you to rage. Fine then.
First skill... Chains Of Death."
"Lyxeria! Watch! They Are clashing! That Wright... And Zain... They're moves are clashing! This is divine. An eclipse and a skill that chains anyone and everyone around it... Allowing the caster to have control over any victim of this skill! We're only safe because of my skill! The Energy Shield! We need to save Zain!"
"No you idiot. Watch carefully. Zain... He's winning. That skill is far more powerful than Wrights chains. He's slowly catching up. If Wright doesn't do anything... He will die... I'm sure of it..."
My eclipse! It's holding his skill back. It's burning all of the Chains being casted towards me. I'll win... I'll surely win! He hasn't calculated this! My training allows the secret art skill to become that much more powerful! I'm only glad Rhyden, Lyxeria and Korian could get to a safe spot before getting caught up in the Eclipse!
"FINE THEN! IF THAT WON'T WORK. SECOND SKILL. HONORED SLICE."
What now?
Honored slice?
"Dear Lunar... it's best to move away. It seems he's used "that" skill."
"Yes it seems like he's using it as a last resort. It's amazing Zain's pushing him to his limits... That guy I thought would never be concerned for anything in the world. Almost like he's the strongest."
A second skill? Did he just say Honored Slice? What am I sensing...?
"Die"... Die... DIE. ZAIN!" Says Wright channeling everything he has... Just to finish Zain off.
The air feels so nice. It's so peaceful. Almost like how it was before all this occured. The air is so breezy. Yet the vibe is so cold. No skill of eclipse will ever get me the warmth I lost back then. But for now, I'll at least go down with a fight. 86Please respect copyright.PENANALHwEmKpsDP
