Chapter 11 - CHAPTER 11 ( QUEST FROM A MERMAID ! )

When they entered the inn, nearly everyone glared at the multiple bags of coins in their hands. Jack ordered every single meal on the menu which made everyone greedy.

After eating, Jack bought the inn for about 30,500 gold coins. Jack chased everyone out of the inn, he told Gara and Seno that this would be their base.

Jack had heard about a highly intriguing phenomenon. They called it the Moonlight River, it was a very stunning happening.

Some people said that the Moonlight River was when all the souls that are meant to be reincarnated will be reincarnated.

Others said that the Moonlight River was a time when Immortality had a summit with the other Lord of the World of Souls Layers.

Only a very few amounts of people said it was when Immortality wanted to bless someone.

Jack hardly believed in any of the explanations.

Jack's explanation was it was when Immortality wanted to see if someone could dare to walk into the peculiar but fantastic site.

Gara and Seno asked him what they were going to do next. Jack laughed, "Here we come, Moonlight River!".

The two were shocked that Jack wanted to explore it.

*6 hours later*

Something odd happened and the entirety of the World of Souls shook. Jack walked out of the inn and said, "It is time".

It looked like the solar system crashed into the sun. Lights were sprayed everywhere and many animals looked up.

It was insanely beautiful but after 3 minutes, the sky turned solemn and the World of Souls was covered in fog.

No one could see anything, and then howls and cries of children could be heard.

Then a dark and rough voice said, "Hahaha... come, my little children, come. Arise to the Moonlight and defeat all your enemies".

Suddenly, cries of despair could be heard, and a thundering voice shouted, "REVENGE! REVENGE... VENGEANCE!".

Jack floated to the sky, he could see souls ascending and some descending. Jack finally saw a platinum gate and millions of soul-like beings with wings made out of bones protecting the entrance.

They all said at the same time, "Why has thou come forth?". Jack smirked.

They asked again, "Why has thou come forth?".

Jack asked, "Who is your mother and where is she?".

The guards boldly answered, "Our mother... is the Moonlight Mermaid. Her dwelling place is the Moonlight River, which we dearly guard with our lives!".

Jack said, "Scoot or else...".

The guards said with intrepidity, "Or what?".

Jack said, "I'll... VAGABOND BANG!". A dark aura exploded out of Jack's body and all the spirits became spooked.

The guards tried to strike Jack but all their efforts were to no avail. His body was like a reinforced diamond.

Jack ripped apart everything in his way. After minutes of exterminating stuff, he finally arrived at a bizarre place... It was a place where the sky was broken.

There were no animals or beasts in that weird environment until he found a vast ocean. A seductive voice called, "My child come to me".

As Jack was about to attempt walking on the ocean, his common sense kicked in. Jack replied boldly, "I'm not an idiot".

The voice said, "It's mana water... you can walk on it".

Jack restrained and responded, "Don't try any odd schemes... or else I'll dice you into a thousand pieces".

Jack walked on the vast river and finally arrived in the middle of the place. A mermaid with a captivating, exquisite and delicate body, stared at Jack.

Her face was excessively gorgeous and it was enough to make an entire army bow down to her. Jack simply said, "Have you ever heard of something called sushi... they say it's a traditional Japanese food. That's what I'm gonna turn you into".

"Young man, you don't have any manners and I know what sushi is, you little brat", replied the mermaid with an enraged face but even when she was angry she looked beautiful.

Jack made a sign to Gara and Seno to shred her up but before the assault began she said, "I can read minds you know".

Jack said, "Don't kill her... yet". The mermaid pouted and sneered at Jack.

Jack asked with suspicion, "Who in the world are you and why do you make this phenomenon?".

She replied in a mild voice, "My name is Great Sage Selene, I deal in illusions and beauty. You can even say that I am one of the best on that side. I am nearly a million years old and I am one of the children of Master Jerome and Mistress Evangeline".

This is the ranking of power (if I put a ranking of power before this chapter forget the last one I put) in the World of Souls. I would put it from weakest to strongest(Beside their ranks are the spells that can hurt them):

Commoner (Rank 1)

Combatant (Rank 2)

Dignified Combatant (Rank 3)

Guardian (Rank 4)- (Jack's normal combat power)

Saint (Rank 5)- (Jack when he actually wants to kill the person)

Lord Saint (Rank 6)-(Jack while using Vagabond Bang)

Omega (Rank 7)-(Jack while in Bloodrush mode)

Sage (Rank 8)

Great Sage (Rank 9)

Mister/Mistress (Rank 10)

Lord of a Layer ( World of Souls),(they are so mighty that no spell can impair them)

Jack looked at her as if he had seen a ghoul. He shivered and stammered, "Great sage, great sage..., and your parents are...mister...mistress...how in the world".

She said, "I am only using 5% of my power and I do this because my parents ordered me to. They said Immortality told me to do it".

Jack roared, "I KNEW IT!!!". Selene smiled.

She said, "I sense a strange aura from you, it is nearly like the aura speaks to me. I think it says, 'He is the right person...send him on the quest'".

Jack calmly replied, "Uh... I have a very very very close relationship with Immortality".

Gara asked, "Please what is the quest about?".

"The quest is to retrieve Aeternitas from Mt.Pereat but you will be cursed with any disease I choose for you", said Selena.

Jack asked, "So what disease will I suffer".

"You would be crippled", replied Selena.
