Seven Months Later June 5,1999
Colorado Springs, Colorado
"Spirit Sword Chastiefol: 5th configuration Increase!!" Cling! Cling! Cling! The sound of metal hitting each other could be heard from a house seeming in the middle of nowhere. The now 6-year-old Harlequin could be seen blocking and evading dagger-like knives that had a gold and bronze blade with forest green handles. The sword in his hand seemed to be an iron sword gleaming and dangerous. King moved swiftly on his feet, obviously well practiced and well trained for someone his age. " King, once you're done with that last barrage, come inside so we can talk." James shouted from their back porch. King deflected the last airborne blades and sheathed his extra sword. He paused before following James and checked how his stats had improved the last 6 months it was easy to improve stats like Observe and Aura sense, he just had to spam those skills other skills that were combat he improved when he spared with his father and each spar usually came with a quest that rewarded Xp, money and golden drachmas as well as some stat points here and there. King was impressed with his work.

~Very impressive indeed.~ King thought to himself, staring at the orange screen. King did a lot of work improving his control over Chastiefol as he trained he noticed that every 10 levels he leveled up to he unlocked a new configuration of Chastiefol. He also worked on swordsmanship, but he realized that he needed to work on some hand-to-hand combat, something he would develop over the summer at camp. He wanted his combat style to be about incapacitating his opponents and rendering them useless unless he could help it. King knew he would end up facing other demigods once Kronos attacks, so he wanted to limit the amount of life he would have to take. King walked inside their house. "Hey dad," King greeted. His father put down his book and looked at his son. " Harlequin, as you know Camp Half-Blood is starting in a few days, so I want you to pack everything you need there. We will leave in 3 days flying to New York the big man in the sky should not have any issues, but we'll make sure to offer a sacrifice before we go to make sure." "Okay dad I will make sure everything is packed and ready."
Ping!! New Quest Available!
Make it to Camp!
The road may be dangerous for those unprepared! Get you and your father to camp safely. Rewards: 1000xp, 10 stat points, ?, ?, ?
Failure: Death
Cannot Be Declined, Auto Accepted!
~An auto quest with mysterious rewards huh? Hopefully it will be worth the trouble. It will definitely level me up to almost level 10. Hopefully I can get something to occupy my time soon. I still have a little time before major players in the story show up. In canon Annabeth shows up to the camp when she is 6 which she'll turn this year so around this time next year she should be showing up.~ King was deep in thought at the new notification.
3 days Later
"Lord Zeus, Lord Hermes, please bless our travels to Camp Half-Blood so that we may reach the borders safely." King and his father prayed to the Lords of the Sky and Travels. They threw in a bag full of gold drachmas and various foods into their hearth. " Okay King let's get you to camp!" There was nothing but smooth skies all the way to New York and once they landed, they quickly made their way to a bus station so that they could avoid monsters. Once they arrived, they ran into someone they were not ready for.
King looked around the Bus station and saw someone he only noticed from the book.
Grover Underwood, Satyr-in-training, Level 15.
~He is a higher level than I am! That's surprising. I doubt he is as strong as I am, however.~ Grover made eye contact with King and his eyes visibly widened and he let out a surprised beat. James turned around to see what the commotion was, he noticed Grover and waved him over. " Grover! Over here! Wow, aren't you a sight for sore eyes? I have not seen you since I left camp!" " James! Woah I cannot believe Chiron sent me to come get you of all people! Who is this with you did you find another?" Grover was surprised to see his friend and the small person with him. "This is my son, Grover. Go ahead son introduce yourself." King steps up when prompted, holding his pillow under his arm. " Hello Grover, my name is Harlequin Liones. It's a pleasure to meet you I hope we can be friends." King greeted. ~He seems as skittish in real life as he does in the books. I swear he is the ultimate bad omen for anyone getting to camp. I hope nothing bad happens to us. Famous last words, however.~ King thought to himself trying to avoid becoming visibly tense. " Harlequin huh? That's a unique name. Wait James is he a Half blood too?" Grover asked the last part quietly. " Yes, he is Grover. I think that is why Chiron sent a satyr. His heritage may make him a beacon for monsters once he is older. Which is unfortunate. Let's get to camp Grover." James replied in an equally quiet tone. Grover started walking away with James and King following him to the bus to take them all to Long Island.
—--
On the bus King sat on Chastiefol and was ready for anything to come his way activating his [Aura Sense] ability in waves so they did not get ambushed or so he did not get ambushed at least. The bus arrived at their destination a strawberry field much like the ones that James told king that his maternal family cares for. Walking up the hill King flared his [Aura Sensing] once again and found something hiding in the tree line. " Something is out there." King warned Grover and James. "I recommend we get ready for a fight but don't be obvious whatever it is does not know we know it's there. Hopefully it's just a camper or woodland spirit." King said hopping off Chastiefol. " You know Harlequin I never did ask why do you own a floating pillow and how is it floating?" Grover asked trying to seem casual. "It's really a comfort item like one of the most comfortable pillow in the world. It comes in handy. As for flying I'm not really sure how it does that it bonded with me when I was a baby before I was dropped of to my father or so I was told." King answered Grover. Grover seemed content with his answer as they traveled down the path going closer to the camp. "King are they still there?" James asked quietly. "Yes father and they are getting closer. I can say if we fight them it will be hard pressed for all three of us." Roarrrrr!!!!!
Nemean Lion, Indestructible Cat, level 57
"Oh gods" the party of 3 thought. The Lion slashed at James. "Chastiefol!" King called out as he gestured for his pillow to intercept the hit. "Are you okay!!" King called out as he took a defensive stance around his father. James nodded his head. Grover seemed to be trembling at the sight of the legendary monster. ~Observe!~

~And the good times just keep on rolling!!~ King stated enraged. "Dad! Bow!" James pulled out his bow after retreating from the lion's range and started pelting the Lion with arrows which did nothing against its health. " Grover! You're a satyr, do you have some form of magic to bind it!" Grover was paralyzed with fear and didn't respond to King. "Spirit Sword Chastiefol Second Configuration: Guardian!" King yelled.

Guardian punched Nemean in its face and got it away from Grover before he could get maimed. King pulled out a familiar golden button that his father once had once he tapped on it the button transformed to his fathers sword Light.
Light- Celestial Bronze Hoplite
Belonging to James Liones and used by his son Harlequin, Liones on a child from Apollo can use this sword to its full potential.
Damage Str x25
King slid underneath the massive claw of the beast and sliced at its undercarriage twice.
-185 damage
-200 damage
~This thing is unbelievable! If only Chastiefol wasn't in guardian I could sure use dual wielding right now!!~ Guardian swings and hits Nemean again.
-25 damage
King surveyed the battlefield and noticed Grover hiding near his father and his dad still pelting the Lion with arrows. "Spirit Sword Chastiefol Fifth Configuration: Increase! Bumblebee!" With those words 75 gold and bronze daggers flew surrounding the beast and hitting it with a target that size all 75 hit Nemean. Looking at the damage King noticed that the once that hit its face did more damage
60 Hit! Damage 4,425
12 Hit! Damage 1,770
3 Critical Hit! Full Damage! 885
Ping! New Skill created!
Critical Hit! Level 1/100 (48%)

Roarrrr! The Lion cried out and slashed at King. He rolled out of the way but was grazed by its claw.
-250! 850/1100
~Holy!! What that was just a graze, a full hit will kill me!~ "Chastiefol First Configuration: Chastiefol!" King called and there in his hand rested Chastiefol in all its glory. James hit Nemean with more arrows aiming for the face only doing 10 damage here and there the Lion turned his way to James and Grover before King could do anything Grover bonded the Lion with roots and the roots started contracting with the hopes to strangle it.
-1500!
Nemean Lion- 48,999/50,000
While bonded King unleashed a fury of attacks and landed 7 with his dual blades before the beast broke free. However it only took a quarter of the damage.
-6,664! 42,335/50,000
"Damn it! What does it take to kill this thing!" James yelled. "Dad, I'm going to use Sunflower!! Take cover!" King yelled as James grabbed Grover and jumped away. " Spirit Sword Chastiefol Fourth Configuration: Sunflower! Rapid Blast!" A flower the size of the tallest trees in the forest blossomed and took aim at the Lion. "Fire!" A swarm of blast hit the Lion in full force.
12 Critical damage! 4,050 damage !
13 Hit! 2925 damage!
King was shocked to see the full damage went through. ~It must be weak against magical attacks! Holy shit this changes everything!~
Nemean Lion - 35,360/50,000
" Spirit Sword Chastiefol Fifth Configuration: Increase! Bumblebee!"
Once again shining daggers flew around attacking the beast but this time it started swatting away the daggers. King sped off to find his father. " Dad it took more damage when I hit it with Sunflower. I don't think it has immunity against magical powers!" "Okay that's great but you can not use rapid fire until 6 hours. And if you use the beam you'll be out of luck! Keep up with Bumblebee and hopefully someone comes to help." James told his son. " One well placed arrow as its roaring should do some serious damage. Can you land the shot?"
Roarrrrr!!!!! The roar of the Nemean Lion was heard throughout the forest. The Lion came charging at the trio. Grover tried to bind it once more with roots but this time it tore them to shreds. It raised its massive paw and struck at the group. King rose Light in to block but there is only so much you could do against a legendary creature. Cling!! That was heard throughout the forest as the beast broke Light and forced King to the ground.
-836! Critical Health! 14/1,100
"Ahhhhh!!!" King yelled at the top of his voice at the damage caused. "Guardian!!" Before the massive cat could deal the final blow, Guardian tackled it onto the ground. King scurried away from the battle zone holding his wounds and found a safe zone in a tree and checked his basic stats.

~With this new boost I won't die anymore but the bleeding is still doing and Guardian should be hitting for more now. I'm almost out of MP. I'll use Pollen Garden to heal the bleeding and then use Chastiefol to fight this stupid cat.~ King formulated a plan in his head. He peeked out of the tree to see Guardian still attacking the Lion but Guardian was visibly hitting harder and it was looking torn.
Nemean Lion- 29,870/50,000
Guardian- 1,762/7,900
~I have to do this now before Guardian gets destroyed!~
"Chastiefol Eighth Configuration: Pollen Garden!" Pollen Garden lasted a minute to stop the bleeding and give King a few more health points. "Spirit Sword Chastiefol First Configuration: Chastiefol!" Now rearmed to fight the Lion and not bleeding, King watched carefully as it looked around trying to find its prey. Flish! Flish! Flish! James hit it with more arrows drawing the Lion in towards him but Grover was nowhere to be seen. As the Lion charged at James as King could do he yelled for his father in concern. ~Please grandfather if you can hear me Father your son is in danger give me the strength to protect him!~ King prayed to Apollo in hopes he would help him . King all of the sudden felt renewed and looked at his health and mana.
Hp- 2,400/2,400
Mp-2,250/2,250
King charged at the Lion at full speed to protect his father as he made his way to the beast he saw was bonded with roots Grover had come through to protect his father. In King's mind he could hear a male voice, ~Feel my power course through your veins grandchild use the sun it will not harm you. Use your might!~ "Burning Sun Slash!!" King yelled as he hit the Lion away from his father with a new attack that came from his Grandfather.

"Spirit Sword Chastiefol Fourth Configuration: Sunflower! Beam!!" King shouted his attack at the now downed Lion that was flung across the field and hit multiple trees. Once again the massive flower bloomed and before it bloomed King got a notification from the system.
