Chapter 3 - Malicious bronze knight

Jonnathan has reach the grand entrance. He walks towards the enormous terracotta doors, entrench in bronze metal frames and short sturdy spikes. Pressing against door handle, the towering gates creaks open....a bright light shines from within.

Halfway through, the light rays blinded my sight!

An overwhelming sense of heat surges towards him, scorching him bright red!

uuurrrggghhhh!!!!!

Jonnathan drops down, flailing his hands wildly, while turning and tossing around.

A rhythmic knocking sounds out.

"Bang....bang....bang, bang, bang bang!"

"Oouucchh!!"

Jonnathan rolls on the floor, groaning in pain from impact. Suffering from damaged muscles all around his body and also minor fractures on his bone.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

"Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Two set of obnoxious noise, fear grips his heart.

"aaahhh!"

Jonnathan opens his eyes, feeling pricked in the arm, liquid blood oozing out of his wound.

Another poke.

A searing pain from his waist, blood spills, dying his clothes and causing great discomfort.

Another poke

An intrusive object at the navel region, blood oozes our, drenching the floor red.

Jonnathan stretches his hand out, however failing to reach his spear.

A penetrating force came, this time, pinning his hand into ground!

Mocking his attempt at saving himself!

The threat of death hangs above, an explosive force, capable of pushing him to do the unimaginable...

His other hand pulls upon the spear!

"uurrggghh!"

Then swing!

"Bong!"

The blunt force knocks one bronze knight a distance away, hairline cracks surface all over it's glimmering amor.

The other bronze knight retaliates with a stab at his arm. Jonnathan parries the sharp tip away but the spear is back at it again. Successfully stabbing the dying person on the ground.

Left without options, he stabs at the bronze knight while ignoring it's attack. From time to time, a knight will block his move for his companion. He felt a strong sense of fatigue building up in his muscles. His stabs becoming less and less effective.

....

Few exchanges later, Jonnathan manage to penetrate through the knight armor, revealing a bright emerald within!

The bronze knight collapses weakly onto the floor,

"Clang!"

The bronze knight collapses weakly onto the floor, like a marionette losing its string. The emerald, size of a human heart falls out, landing in front of him.

Hope!

It's companion tries to reach out for the emerald, However, I sweep the gem towards me, placing my pierced and wrecked hand upon it.

A notification sounds out:

"Do you choose to absorb it"

"Yes! Yes!"

A vibrant green light radiates from the crystal, melting into my arm, spontaneously my discomfort lessens.

My body stops oozing out blood, thin layers skin briefly covers up my wound and my own pain perception dims.

The bronze knight, rushes to collect its companion spear, then thrusting with all it might at me!

I swing my spear parrying the knight attack, before I finish off with a powerful stab in its chest.
