Rate and Review. :x

I think I told you all this before, but I've actually written a few stories and I'm not sure which to actually post. The one I'm currently leaning towards is called "I Wish". This is a quick synopsis: A high school girl finds a magical lamp that belongs to a Djinn named Morgan inside her neighbors apartment while she's looking for his motorcycle keys and ends up wishing to be transported to a world of fantasy in order to become a hero. This story is not about that girl but Morgan who decides to also travel to this fantasy world since he's so damn bored.

Chapter 45

I whistled happily as I entered the adventurers guild. Having a new weapon always puts me in a good mood. It was pretty packed and the smell of sweat filled my nostrils. I glanced around at all the people while receiving a few glares.

Man:"You must be Becket."

A tall man wearing a white tunic and black trousers walked up to me. His short brown hair looked much cleaner than I expected. Most adventurers aren't very clean after all so the scent of soap also surprised me. He looked to be around the same age as Gene and had a sword strapped to his waist.

Becket:"Yes, I'm Becket. Who are you?"

Man:"I'm Deris the head of this guild here in the capitol."

*The guild head? What does he want from me?*

Becket:"So, why'd you call me here?"

Deris:"How about we talk somewhere a little more private."

Without giving me a chance to answer he turned around and walked toward the receptionist counter. I quickly followed after him.

Deris:"Take a seat."

We had gone into the door behind the receptionist counter then down a hallway and entered this current room. Inside was a large desk covered in papers which reminded me of Sylvia's study. In front of the desk were two couches facing each other with a table between them. I took a seat on the couch across from Deris. Why this room didn't have any windows interested me, but I didn't ask.

Becket:"Well, are you going to explain?"

Deris:"First I'd like to congratulate you on advancing to the rank of hero."

He put his hands on both of his knees and bowed then straightened out and looked into my eyes.

Deris:"Honestly an adventurer isn't officially named hero until after their strengthening."

Becket:"Strengthening?"

*Oh! I just remembered Sylvia telling me about that!*

Deris:"It's a secret known only to the guild and we'd like to keep it that way so it is required for all heroes to sign a magical contract."

Deris leaned forward sliding a piece of paper across the table.

Deris:"All it needs is a single drop of your blood."

I picked up the paper and began to read it. There didn't seem to be any tricks and if there was I doubted the guild would still be in business after messing with someone like me. According to the contract I'll instantly die if I try to reveal anything about the strengthening technique. I didn't have any plans on telling others about it anyway.

Becket:"Alright, I'll accept the contract."

Deris looked a little relived and his shoulders slightly relaxed as he let out a long sigh. I've heard heroes are extremely powerful so maybe being around me made him a little nervous. That's not good for a guild head.

Becket:"Does the blood need to go in a specific spot on the contract?"

Deris:"No, just make sure it touches the paper."

I nodded then looked at the paper as I sat it back on the table.

*I feel like I'm always cutting myself since coming to this world.*

I grew out the ice nail on my wyvern arms index finger until it looked like a small claw and sliced open my normal hand. There was more blood then needed, but my wound quickly closed up and the paper absorbed all the blood. It glowed for a few seconds then stopped.

Becket:"Is that it?"

Deris:"Yes, why?"

Becket:"I was expecting more then a glow. Maybe it bursting into flames or something."

Deris:"I don't know of any contracts that burn immediately after finishing them. If they did then it would be voided."

*Does he realize that he just told me how to void this contract?*

Deris:"Doris!"

A woman opened the door and walked in with a stone tablet in her hands.

*Doris? Is that his sister?*

Deris:"This is Doris and she'll be helping you with the strengthening."

Deris got up and walked towards the door as Doris took his seat across from me.

Deris:"I've got other work to do, but I hope we meet again Becket."

He disappeared behind the door.

Doris:"Hello."

She sat the stone tablet on the table after rolling the contract up and setting it next to her. Her brown hair was in a bun and she wore a plain blue dress.

Doris:"Please put your hand on this tablet."

I looked down at it for a second before placing my hand on top.

Doris:"Now channel a little mana into it."

I nodded then forced some of my mana into it. The tablet seemed to not want my mana and I ended up wasting a bit. Finally something happened.

A blue box appeared on the tablet. It reminded me of the one that my title stone creates.

Doris:"Most people don't realize there is a system governing everything we do. When it judges we've gained enough accomplishments it rewards us with raising our level and gives us stat points. The problem with this system is that without the help of this tablet we wouldn't be able to distribute those stat points."

I stared at the blue box and the number of stat points I had.

Doris:"Without this tablet you wouldn't normally even know that everyone has a level."

Becket:"So if I distribute these stat points my endurance, strength, agility, life force and mana will increase?"

Doris:"Stat points can only be distributed to strength, endurance or agility. Life force and mana have to be increased through natural methods."

Becket:"What about this class thing?"

Doris:"You have the option to select a class which will slightly increase stats depending on the class and a new magic will become available to you."

Becket:"New magic? Like what?"

Doris:"It depends on the individual, but as an example I heard of a person that gained an ability to become invisible after selecting the Assassin class."

*Classes sound interesting.*

Becket:"Ok so how do I distribute my stat points?"

Doris:"Tap your finger on the stat you would like to increase. If you want to drop 10 stat points at once then first touch your stat points once before touching where you want to drop 10. If you want to drop 100 then touch the stat points twice before selecting where to drop them."

I nodded and began adding my stat points to my other stats. There were a lot of stat points so once I was done my stats looked completely different.

Doris:"Now would you like to select a class?"

I stopped for a second to think.

Becket:"Can I change my class after selecting one?"

Doris:"No."

*So it's a once only choice.*

Becket:"Can I think about it for a day?"

Doris:"Very well. Please return tomorrow with your decision."

I stood up.

Becket:"Thank you for your help Doris."

She stood up too.

Doris:"You're welcome Becket."

While opening the door I accidentally tore it off its hinges. I looked back to Doris.

Doris:"Just leave it there. This happens a lot. The sudden increase in strength can be hard to manage. Be careful not to crush anyone."

I leaned the door against the wall and quickly left the guild. The increase in strength was much more than I expected. I knocked over a lot of people while walking down the street. It also felt like I was moving in slow motion when I matched my pace to the people around me. Finally I reached my destination, Arnie's shop. After I finish here I need to serious practice with my new speed and strength.

Becket:"Arnie you here?"

There was no one in his shop so I yelled. Since the door was unlocked I assume he's here. After a few seconds he popped out of the door at the back.

Arnie:"Perfect timing Becket. Would you mind giving me some more of that healing solution?"

*I think I'm turning into a really creepy person. I'm giving Arnie bottles of my saliva and Carmilla a doll made with some of my hair.*

I pulled out a few vials of my saliva that I had prepared before coming here and set them on the table next to him.

Becket:"So, learned anything new about that trax stuff?"

He smiled and came closer to me.

Arnie:"I started human trials a couple weeks ago and they are turning out amazing."

Becket:"So it works?"

Arnie:"If you take the right amount it does. Too much will kill you and too little will deform you. The successful trials have only two side effects. The first is an increase in libido and the second is slight scaling on the back."

Becket:"An increased libido can be managed, but how much is the slight scaling?"

Arnie:"Just a single line of scales starting at the top of the spinal cord and stopping at your tail bone. With a shirt on they aren't even noticeable."

I nodded my head while listening.

Becket:"Sounds good. Alright continue with your experiments."

I pulled out an extra vial of my saliva and placed it next to the others. He was happy with my addition to his supply and greedily took them all.

Arnie:"I'll be getting back to work then."

I nodded to him and left his shop. The walk back to the palace was just as difficult since I needed to take care not to accidentally kill anyone by bumping into them. The first thing I decided to do was practice and try learning a little restraint. A grin covered my face when I saw who was meditating in the training field.

Becket:"Lets test my limits."

I ran at full speed toward Aelisia who was sitting cross legged on the ground with her eyes closed. While focusing all my strength into my leg and driving it into her red chest plate I punted her into the sky.

Becket:"Was that a little too much?"

I couldn't even see her anymore. I smiled and began to laugh. There wasn't a single part of me that believed that actually did any damage, but I'm sure it annoyed the hell out of her.

Aelisia:"You've suddenly jumped in power."

I spun around to see her fist hit my chest knocking the wind out of me. Strangely that's all it did.

Aelisia:"Oh? Incredible! What happened to you!? How'd you get so strong?"

She continued to ask me questions, but was also not giving me a chance to answer. Her fists never stopped flying at me as I swiftly avoided them. Honestly it wasn't easy. It's pretty hard to imagine how much she must have been holding back up until now. Maybe she's still holding back.

She slowed down so I took some distance and quickly unstrapped my sword belt. It was in the way so I tossed it aside. This is a battle of fists. Magic and weapons are obviously not allowed. They'll only spoil the fun.

Aelisia:"Oh! Are we getting undressed?"

I threw my cloak aside and took my stance. She tore off her dented chest plate and removed her sword.

Aelisia:"I didn't expect to have this fight so soon. Makes me wonder where all this power suddenly came from."

Her hair slightly swayed as she vanished. I threw up my guard just in time to stop her fist from crushing my jaw. A leg sweep came next so I lightly kicked off the ground and sent my knee into her stomach. She swatted it aside with her knee and shoved her foot into my ribs.

Becket:"*Cough*"

Blood spewed out, but I didn't show an opening and got ahold of her foot that was still crushing one of my ribs.

Becket:"Gotcha!"

I pulled her to the ground and wrapped my legs around hers. She punched me in the back which made my spine tingle.

SNAP

I broke her leg, but she didn't even flinch. That was expected so I released that leg and climbed up her body until I was sitting on her stomach. She was smiling and so was I.

Aelisia:"Not bad."

I sent a flurry of punches at her face. Only one got threw though. As my punches began to weaken she caught my right fist and used her other hand to crush my elbow with a quick strike. She took that chance to roll me over so that she was now on top.

Many more of her hits made it past my defense since I only had one arm to guard with. I felt my nose shatter and blood fill my mouth and nostrils. Defending wasn't working so I made a decision. I sacrificed my defense and drew my arm back while she smashed every bone in my face. I focused all my energy into my still good wyvern arm and landed a clean hit to her face sending her flipping through the air.

Becket:"Ha..ha...ha...ha."

Getting air into my lungs wasn't easy. I stood up on my wobbly legs and firmly grabbed my broken arm then snapped it back into place. My whole body was kind of numb so it didn't hurt too much. Aelisia had been sent flying into the forest so I quickly chased after her.

During my short run to the forest I started to think of my first girlfriend. Aelisia actually reminds me of her. We met in a street fight with cash on the line and she kicked my ass. I lost over 100 dollars that day betting on myself. I kept betting more and she kept kicking me back down. My pride forced me to keep challenging her.

*I guess I haven't changed much.*

I slowed down my pace as I found her leaning against a tree. Her leg was already popped back into place, but was still unusable.

Becket:"Feel like giving up?"

Aelisia:"Why? You tired already?"

She spoke jokingly with a distorted smile on her face. My last strike to her face really did some damage. Before she could do anything I tackled her into a tree which broke in half when her back hit it. I also heard a few of her ribs crack. She sent another strike to my spine which caused me to lose feeling in my legs for a second. As I fell down I punched her broken leg causing her to fall with me.

We both struggled on the ground trying to gain the top position. Eventually I won and pinned both of her arms down with my wyvern arm above her head. I smiled at my small victory then leaned down and locked lips with her. My blood poured into her mouth. I really couldn't help myself and began to kiss her more passionately.

Even though one of them was broken she still wrapped her legs around me. I released her arms and she immediately used her legs to throw me forward. My vision went black just as my face slammed into a tree.
