Chapter 45
(Town invasion, Pt 3 of 5)
Henry Pov:
The ground had closed up, My father was crying on the ground. Hannah, Hunter, Jake, and Emma had just been swallowed up by the earth. With the Demon at that, what on earth is going on?!
But just then we heard an Explosion making us all back up. Then the ground where they had just disappeared, is destroyed! What on earth happened down there? Next thing I know a man jumps out of the ground and puts, Emma, Hunter, and Hannah down.
The Man is around six foot six with a sword in his belt. He has silver hair down to his waist and a beard and mustache to his chest. He is wearing clothes made out of fur from monsters. They make up his pants, and Jacket, that's all I can see. "Take care of them, there are a lot of A-rank and above monsters in the town. I'll be going," The man said going to attack the monsters.
"Wait, who are you, and where is Jake? Also what happened to the Demon?," My father asks.
"Jake got teleported to another location, I will get him as I destroy the monsters. As for my name, you should already know it as you are apart of that. If you don't then don't bother," He says crouching down.
"Wait, where are you goi—?," I try to ask but he jumps, going hundreds of feet, in a second at that. "Just what is he?," I say out loud.
"I didn't think he could still be alive. He must be over seven hundred years by now if he is still alive. He disappeared in the first world war of this world. His name is Jake, but sadly we don't know his full name. But if he is here, we are safe," My father says satisfied with that man being here.
"Margrave Samuel! Prince Theo and Princess Aaron have gone missing!," A knight running up says.
"What! How could that happen! They were inside the Stronghold!," My father yells, "What direction were they seen going in last!" At that the knights think for a bit.
"They were seen heading into the town to look for refugees. Apparently, that was heard from a onlooker. It was the manager of Threads of Exodus in town, Aaron had a previous run in with them. The only reason we know is another person pointed it out. There is currently a request for a replacement," The knight says.
"Alright, follow me, we need to go find them!," My father says. "And you two, get back insi—!," He says but cannot finish as there is an explosion. "What in the world is going on out there!," He yells.
Narrator Pov:
Jake jumped away from the delicate situation into the town. He needed to take out these monsters as fast as possible. He ran around killing most of the AAA rank and below monsters.
He then started taking out the S-class monsters, he normally holds back, but he didn't have that option right now. He didn't want it found out that was not only a Dire wolf Beast-kin, but also a —————-.
The gods had done a little thing that I will not mention as it will affect the story. What was put here shall be said at a later date, so please enjoy the rest of the story.
He cast his Area sense yet again and noticed two humans outside the stronghold. Why in the world are two people out in this weather and danger?!
Aaron Pov:
We had left without permission or knowledge of us leaving. We had wanted to search for people stuck outside as I was not sure everyone was safe. So I convinced my brother to take me out to search, boy was I wrong.
We were currently cornered by a Giant spider. Why in the world did it have to be a spider, I hate spiders with the upmost Conviction. But just as it is about to attack as we are cowering from my brothers magic being useless, we are saved.
A man came in with a ancient sword by the looks of it. He wore heavy winter gear, like the ones made by Emma's brother. It covered his entire body, but then, it disappears and we see, Jake?! "What in the world are you doing here?," my brother yells.
"I'm sorry, do I know you, and why did you come out in this?," He says oblivious to his look.
"We came to look for people left out here, why are you here?!," My brother yells.
"I came to kill all the monsters and send that Greater demon to its grave. I also already used my magic and found that everyone was already in the stronghold. Is that strange?," He asked.
"But how can you use magic, you are only seven Jake!," I say scared. As I said that he looks at himself and screams.
