"Don't think that is enough for you to stay Alive "
"Now you will tell me where are the girls"
"That place will be your tomb if you go to it"
"I told you not to judge people's strength based on preconceptions."
"They are on the north river, in a great ship, with a lot of men,don't worry about the monsters we killed them all"
"Here, you are the real monsters"
"You can kill me now"
"I will spare your life. Take your hand to the sorcerers; perhaps they can bring it back to you."
"What?" Randy and Harry said at the same time, astonished by John's words.
"It's the price for telling me about where they keep the girls " Jhon said. "Let's go Harry" .
"Are you sure you want to let him alive,what if he told him somehow that we are coming to save the girls" Harry objected to John's decision.
"It doesn't matter to me; I always prevail."
"I bet you will emerge victorious." Randy said with a warm smile.
Jhon gave him a smile And turned around to leave. Harry was following him.
At that moment, John decided to go towards them, without asking about their number or anything else. He was indeed ready to kill anyone standing in his way. Without knowing a single bit of information about their forces, she began heading towards them, with him accompanying her to guide her on the way. This action of his proved two things: either he was a foolish arrogant person, or he was a skilled individual confident in his abilities.
"Do you know the place that he told us about ?"jhon asked.
"Yeah,But I haven't been there before; that place was filled with monsters."
"There are no monsters in this forest,as he said they killed them all" Jhon said.
"How did they manage to kill all the monsters?"
"They need a space without monsters to take the girls as they wish" Jhon said "As the monsters pose a significant threat to them, they need to stay in a place that remains hidden from everyone."
"Yes, it implies they have a substantial number of men as well."
"You could say that"
"Are they like Randy" Harry stepped forward and asked him.
"I don't think Randy possesses special abilities; he acquired them thanks to the dragon sorcerers. These abilities are not attainable by everyone."
"How did you manage to defeat him?"
"You could say I have special abilities in my mind. And that what made me defeat all my enemies "
"Are you confident that you will defeat them."
"Certainly, without a doubt."Jhon smiled "How much more time do we need to arrive?"
"It's still somewhat far."
"It would have been better for us if we had brought two horses along."
"I would like that,It's exhausting to keep walking for a long time."Harry said, taking a deep breath.
Jhon stopped "Is the sound I hear the flowing of a river?"
"Yeah "
"How many rivers are there on the island?"
"There is only one river"
"So do you mean that river take to them?"
"Yaeh we will follow it "
"So, why are we still walking when we can go by the river?"
"We don't have a boat "
"You really don't notice anything." Jhon said "There's a boat near Randy's hut."
"We were in a battle. How could I notice that?"
"You were just watching, I am the one who was fighting, Fortunately, we didn't stray too far."
"Will we return?"
"Yes"
"I've heard that the river is very dangerous."
"Life is full of risks."
After a while of walking, they reached the location of the boat.
"Do you think this boat will hold up? The river's current is very strong." Harry said, attempting to make John reconsider his decision.
"At least we won't have to paddle; the current is leading directly towards them."Jhon said," He reproached Harry with a glance."We don't have time pring it fast to the river "
Harry Took a deep breath and began executing John's commands.
John went before him .to take a look at the river . After a few moments, Harry caught up with him, was dragging the boat behind.
The river was very large and fast-flowing, with a yellowish color and murky waters, indicating the presence of dangerous creatures within it. The land near it was green and fertile. It was a river with a strong current, filled with rocks.
"It's a deep river, and its current is strong, but we can harness and use it to our advantage."
"You can't wine always, sometimes we just can't wine,This river will overturn the boat in the first moment."
""Nothing can stop me.I didn't embark on this journey to give up when facing some simple obstacles."
"I'm not saying to give up, but you should be more cautious and choose options with fewer risks."
"Options with no risk don't always yield good results." Jhon said, was looking at the river."You can come back now; I can continue on my own."
"I am the person who has to choose the risky options because my daughter is kidnapped. I'm sorry, but I won't say anything more, and I will do everything you say." Harry struggled to hold back his tears."just safe my daughter, I just don't want you to die in a foolish way."
"Don't worry,I still have a lot to do, so I can't die now, Also, you won't go with me to the battlefield this time. You're just a hindrance in the midst of the fight."
"Could you express that in a more refined manner, showing at least some respect for my feelings?"
""I'm not skilled at lying or speaking eloquently. I only excel in speaking through the use of the sword." Jhon put his hand on the sword.
""But speech can help us avoid the fight."
"In this life, you will encounter people who only understand through blood."
"But it would be better if you were skilled in both speaking and using the sword."Harry said with a triumphant smile.
""Yes, but the sword can make anyone silent."Jhon said, The smile vanished from Harry's face."Now let's go and kill some scum."
They placed the boat in the river and jumped in. The current gave them no moment's reprieve, The boat was about to overturn to the left, but John's intervention tilted it to the right.
"Didn't I tell you the river is dangerous?"
"This current is truly fast; it will get us there faster than I expected."
"To the death you mean"
"I've met death several times, and I can assure you I don't see it here."
Something moved behind the boat in the middle of the water. After moments, a giant snake appeared behind the boat.
"Do you see it now?" As if Harry was waiting to say that.
John quickly drew his sword, ready to face the giant snake.
" Randy say that they killed all the monster " Jhon said.
"I think they don't enjoy fishing."
"Harry, you become more lively when your life is at stake." Harry didn't answer.
The snake advanced toward the boat,John prepared to face it."come on " Jhon said loudly . John was ready to cut the snake when it attacked,When the snake got close to the boat, it dove into the water and did not attack.
"It's trying to drown us and engage in a water fight. Damn!" Jhon said.
The snake did it again, and this time the boat was almost submerged. Then the snake disappeared ,"he try to make this the last time "jhon said, He take a deep breath and closed his eyes "(Hamura)Extreme instinct." He said in a sinister voice,and stopped breathing or moving.
"Is this a time for contemplation?"He said, frightened.
"That's it "jhon said that and jumped into the water.The moment John disappeared into the water, the color of the water turned red.
"Did he panic and decide to commit suicide?" Harry said with regret."In the end, I felt he was somewhat crazy, but not to this extent." He said, continuing to gaze at the red waters, hoping John would emerge from them. He didn't notice the rock in front of the boat. The boat collides with it and lifts from the water." I am sorry my daughter, I couldn't safe you ".
Something jumps out of the water and grabs the boat. With fear, Harry thought it was the monster.
"You can apologize to her directly." It's Jhon,He grabbed the boat and safe Harry.
"Are you alive"
"Do you think a stupid lizard is enough to kill me?"
"Are you alive"Harry said, shocked.
"Do you think I am ghost? "Jhon said,jokingly.
""I just can't believe it. You went down to the river, and after that, you comes out alive, and that blood, the blood from who..."
"It's snake blood."
"Did you killed the snake "
"Yes...."
"This man is amazing." Harry said in his mind.
The river current was getting stronger, and the boat was tilting alternately to the left and right.
"With the beginning of their journey, they encountered a fierce monster, which John defeated using a strange ability. What awaits them? Will they still face other monsters?"
