Chapter 216 - Chapter 216 Into The Next Dimension

As morning came Thomas sat up and yawned as he mumbled "Morning." Thomas glanced over at Rose and Mira who were seemed to be playing Rock Paper Scissors to pass time. Thomas stood up and walked over to them as he said "What's up." Mira glanced at him and said "Nothing much we're just doing Rock Paper Scissors to decide who goes out to get some boars." Thomas scratched his head and said "I can just get them if you want." Rose glanced at him and said "But isn't the king's army searching for you?" Thomas shrugged and said "To hell if I know." Rose stared at Thomas and asked "Do you at least have some sort of plan to deal with this?" Thomas nodded and said "I do and it's pretty simple actually." Mira glanced at Thomas and asked "What's your plan?" Thomas smiled and said "I'm gonna hop to another dimension for a bit until I get stronger." Mira stared at him and asked "But weren't you trying to avoid that?" Thomas nodded and said "Originally ya but now I'm thinking that I can find a different dimension to get stronger." Thomas stared at them both and said "Besides it'll be as if I never left." Mira stared intently at him and said "You should at least bring one of us so we can make sure your not doing something stupid." Thomas sighed and said "I see your skipping politeness and just making it as blunt as you can." Mira nodded and said "It's the quickest way to get you to understand please don't take any offense from what I just said." Thomas stood there for a moment and said "If I'm taking any of you it should probably be Poppy." Rose stared at him and asked "Why her?" Thomas stared at Rose and said "She's the smallest and easiest to teleport with, that and she's way smarter then me." Mira nodded and said "That seems like a good choice." Thomas stared at Mira and said " I thought you'd be way more persistent and try to be the one to go with me." Mira glanced at him and said "I trust your decision so I won't bother with making a fuss." Thomas sighed and said "Unfortunately it might be a while because I still don't know where to buy mana potions." As Thomas said this Lily and the others along with Cali and Jason came towards him with a box. Thomas glanced at them and asked "What's everyone else doing out here?" Lily who was carrying the box smiled and said "Poppy told us about your plan last night, so we all woke up early and got you some mana potions so you'd be able to get there and come back." Lily set the create on the ground and said "There's twelve in here, good luck." Thomas stared at the create and said "I didn't think she checked my memories that frequently." Lily nodded and said "Of course she has to otherwise there will be too much stuff that we don't know about you." Thomas paused for a moment and said "We?" Scarlett nodded and said "Yes because we would like to help you so we must know what your hiding." Thomas sat down in front of the box and asked "So where did you get these?" Jason pointed to the box and said "We got it from an adventure guild." Thomas set a gold coin on top of the box and said "I don't know how much it was so I'll just give you this and hope it's enough but if it's more then that I'll give you more." Jason picked the gold coin up and handed it back to him as he smiled and said "Keep it, besides they only costed around fifty silvers." Thomas tossed the coin back to Jason and said "Don't sweat it, besides the gold was stolen from a pirate king." Jason caught the coin and nervously asked "Will he try to kill me if he finds out I have it?" Thomas shook his head and said "Nope, he agreed that I got to keep what I stole." Thomas put eleven of the twelve mana potions in his sub space and said "Now all that's left is to make the jump." Poppy hopped on his lap and said "Well then let's not waste anytime and let's get you prepared to take on a king without relying on any of these extra things such as potions and what not." Thomas reaches into the create and grabbed the remaining mana potion as he said "Thanks for this, and I'll be seeing you all again real soon." As Thomas drank the mana potion Ocis stood in front of him and said "Make sure you come back safe and sound, none of us will forgive you if you die and don't come back." Thomas choked on the mana potion and said "I'm not gonna did." Thomas set the empty jar down beside him and said "Dying is the last thing I wanna do so cut me some slack and put some faith in me." Thomas waves and said "Now then apart from that wish me luck." As he vanished Mira smiled and said "With that upbeat attitude I'm sure he'll be just fine." As Thomas and Poppy appeared on top of a hill Poppy glanced at him and asked "Where did you bring us?" Thomas shrugged and said "I dunno, I made sure the teleport was random so we could be anywhere in any dimension." Poppy looked around and said "Well we know we're in a grassy field." Thomas lifted Poppy up to his shoulder and said "Well know soon enough." As he stood up and began to walk in a random direction he yawned and said "Time is definitely different here." Poppy stared at him and asked "By how much?" Thomas looked up into the sky and said "If I had to guess I'd say time moves around two thousand times faster here." Poppy stared at him surprised and asked "By that much?" Thomas nodded and said "It might be even faster but I think my estimate is pretty close." As the ground beneath them began to shift Thomas stared at the ground and said "Looks like something is happening already." Poppy stared at the ground and asked "What do you think it is?" Thomas shrugged and said "Who knows and who cares, if it wants to pick a fight with me I'll destroy it." As a massive creature crawled out of the ground around three times bigger then Thomas Poppy asked "What the hell is that?" Thomas shrugged and said "Don't ask me I'm as confused as you." The creature let out a loud screech sending drool towards Thomas and Poppy. As it landed near there feet it began to melt the ground in front of them. Thomas glanced at the creature and asked "Do you think I'd be able to kill it?" Poppy glanced at Thomas and shouted "Don't stand there run, there is no way in hell you can beat that thing." Thomas glanced at her and said "But if I fight something stronger won't I get stronger?" Poppy shook her head and shouted "If it kills you all this will have been in vain." Thomas turned around and began to walk away as he said "Sorry can't fight you right now, maybe later." Poppy glanced at the creature and asked "Why are you walking so slowly?" Thomas glanced at Poppy and said "We're not in a hurry so just relax." The creature began to charge towards them as it left an acidic trail of holes in the ground. Poppy began to slap Thomas's shoulder while shouting "Its coming after us hurry up and run!" Thomas glanced at the creature and said "Running is pointless that thing was able to find us underground." Once the creature was inches away an old man with a sword appeared and removed its head faster then Thomas could see. The old man glanced at Thomas and said "Walking around in the open is pretty stupid kid." Thomas glanced at the old man and asked "Who are you?" The old man shoved his sword into the ground and said "My name is Sam." Thomas walked over to the creature and asked "Okay now what's this?" Sam walked over to the corpse and said "This big old thing is called a Zetallion Thomas poked it and said "You must be pretty strong to kill these things." The old man laughed and said "And you gotta be pretty stupid to not know what it is, I mean seriously how haven't you heard of them, they've taken over the surface around a decade ago." Thomas stood and smiled as he said "In that case let me help you get rid of some of them." Poppy glanced at Thomas and said "You'll be safe if you work with him, and you'll get stronger this is actually a smart move on your part." Sam grabbed his sword and shouted "Watch out there's a Zeta on you'll shoulder." Thomas glanced at Poppy and said "Actually she's a doll." The man lowered his sword and said "Zeta's come in all sorts of different shapes and sizes but just this once I'll trust you that she's not."
