Some minute earlier
"Shadow are you OK , it looks like the inferno spirit , has come to help us" said jack
"No, she is just here to kill the nightmare walker,... to cut down the competition for the the new Lord of the area" said shadow as he jumped out of the pit
Shadow looked to jack then a golden small ball appeared on his hand
"What is that" Jack asked
"this is a =astral sealing globe= a blue level artefact that can seal monsters under certain grades and some condition . It has a high chance of working on the nightmare walker,....., " said shadow
"And why is that, is it not just a sealing artefact, doesn't it a have high probability of failing to seal strong monsters,.....that is the main reason why the border military don't use them" said Jack
"Well that is because those were ordinary sealing artefacts..... but this is a blessed artefacts and it was blessed with holy magic which directly contradicts the nightmare walkers dark elemental nature" said shadow
"And besides,...we just need to stall the nightmare Walker for a moment to allow the artefacts to do its thing..." Shadow said with a serious look then he turned and ran towards the nightmare walker.
"Oh men, that will be hard" jack then carried his axe and ran after shadow .
As he got close to the creature, he then throw his axe which continued to spine toward the nightmare walker and collided with it hand and bounce back to jack .
As he caught his axe ,the force that it came back with flung him backwards towards the tree crashing into it, shadow had just reached the nightmare walkers back, and with his dagger he was aiming for it head,... at the same time the inferno spirit was conjuring large fireballs attacking it from the front aiming at it chest.
Bang...
But before any of them could continue there attack the nightmare Walker caught Both of their hands, he flung both of them right in front of him, looked directly into their eyes,... it gave a horrifying smile,... As it opened its mouth and form it came a black gas gushing out of the creatures mouth directly into their faces, but before any real damage could be done, the inferno spirit and shadow kicked it at the same time sending it flying back, then hurriedly left the range of the black gas,... which had spread a little into the environment corroding and killing everything,....
As the inferno spirit retreated it throw 10 fireballs at the nightmare walker, but the creature evaded 6 of the fireballs and easily cut in half the remaining with it claws....
Vommmmmmm...
But before she could react she looked ahead and saw that the creature had disappeared, suddenly she felt a huge amount of killing intent coming from above her,..... when she looked up the creature had appeared,...
The the nightmare walker floated in the air looking down at the inferno spirit, it's it raised its hand and made a fist, then from above blasted down and hit the inferno spirit with full force to the ground, making a 10m pit, on the Forest ground ,it then ran into the monster wave massacring monsters between,.... After a few mins the area was cleared of monsters, it then turned around and looked at a small wolf like rabbit with 3 tails and ran towards it.....
As the creature charged towards The rabbit Jack ran and stood in it way,.... but as the creature got closer and Jack was ready to attack it, the creature suddenly disappeared into smoke and appeared behind Jack,...
At the Same time the creatures swung it's claws at Jack from behind leaving many claw marks on jacks armour and the revealed parts of his body from head to toe,.... the cut were so deep,.... that jack left hand was almost cut of his body, but the speed of the nightmare walker did not decline at all as it head towards the wolf.
.... But just as it was about to attack it's then suddenly stopped...,.
Jack saw this and shouted "shadow now" as he spite out a mouth full of blood because of internal injure.
Shadow removed himself From inside the tree and then with full force throw the golden ball .
As the ball reached the nightmare walker, it spilt into 4 part then a small white ball appeared in it ,and with that a strong sucking force and some golden chain Came out and dragged the nightmare walker with the rabbit in to it....
Then it closed and stayed in the air spinning
" We did it " said jack
as he had a sign of relief, but when he turned and looked at shadow, he saw that he was still looking at the ball in the air,...he had a serious and at the same time a worried look on his face, Jack seeing this got a little bit worried and decided to ask
" shadow what is wrong"
"When , things are sealed completely inside, it supposed to turn red but it is not " said shadow.
Jack look at it closely then realized that the ball was still golden and a crack appeared on it , and started to spread all around the ball, this made Jack look in horror as the cracks continue to spread around the ball, and at the same time shadows eyes went wide in disbelief and horror as he realized what was happening,.....
"Oh ,no jack run now, it's about to explode...."
Jack stood up from where he was resting on the forest floor, and ran as fast a he can away from the ball then ...
Booooommmmmm....
As a huge explosion rocked the environment, leaving a cloud of dust and debris flying everywhere, when everything settles down, and shadow look back were the ball was , he saw a 15m pit and in the middle stood the nightmare walker covered in injure,.. but the creature had a missing arm,....
The nightmare Walker slowly turn its head and looked at shadow angrily, and it's suddenly disappeared into smoke as if it was never there in the first place, leaving the whole area in deadly silence,...
Jack came limping while holding his other arm and stood at shadow side he then said
" It seems like we lost it"
Shadow looked angrily at Jack then said
" Something went wrong , I need to report this to the general....?"
But they suddenly heard the sound off scorching flames, as they turned to look in the direction they then saw the inferno spirit fly out of the other pit, as it stood in the air looked around for the nightmare walker and when she couldn't find it she angrily flew away ....
The two men looked at each other and sign in relief, then Jack looked around and saw many injured and dead soldiers, many dead monsters and the rest of the army trying to help the injured soldiers Heal... He had a sad look on his face for the losses they hard but quickly decided to organize the rest of the troops,.... Just to be on the safe side...
"At least all is over ,I will tell the remaining men to clean up the remaining monster ..... shadow can you give us a hand as you see I can't do anything for them now only you can" jack said
" OK, but after this I will go straight to the general and report events that took place, I will then leave the rest to you"... Shadow said
Moving to help the soldiers not even waiting for a response from Jack,....
