EPISODE 2
CHAPTER 9 : RUN TILL THE END (4)
MONSTERS - super natural beasts which normally come from another world. They have a tendency to attack other species without ant reason.
"What is a 'One eyed Orc' doing here?!!" Mitra shouted in surprise.
"What?!" everyone including me asked Mitra in surprise. I think Mira has skill able to see long distances.
"I can see a One eyed Orc coming towards us!! Everyone please don't make any sound and hold your breath as long as you can. It is not an opponent that we in this state can fight." Mitra said to all of us. I noticed that his hands were trembling in fear.
'ONE EYED ORC' as far as I know it is one of the strongest Orc species and it is also top 100 most powerful monster. It also has a very nice hearing ability which helps it during hunting.
Dum..dum...dum slowly the sound became louder and nearer to us.
Everyone was shivering in fear. They all covered their mouths and noses with their hands and stood still. I mean we cannot even move in fear.
Damn what should I do in this situation???!! we all are in danger. This is the most dangerous situation I am in, in my whole life.
Suddenly the sound became more loud and it was as if there were many monsters coming towards us. I slowly move up to see the situation "???!!!!". Seeing me terrified everyone moved slowly to see what I saw.
"What the hell?!! Why are there so many Orcs?? You said you just saw one Orc!!" Krithi whispered and shouted at the same time at Mitra.
"I don't know!! At that time I only saw one orc." Mitra said to us worriedly.
Damn!! I forgot the most important point about the Orcs 'They always hunt in groups'. Damn damn damn what should we do?!!
SSSSSHHH "!!!??" suddenly the rock which was hiding us moved. Then it was lifted up by the Orcs!! Everyone was terrified. I cannot even think of any thing. My legs... no my whole body is trembling.
"Everyone don't worry, even if I have to give away my life, I will save you guys." telling that Mitra moved forward holding his huge sword.

"Hehehe, so are you leaving me behind? I thought we became friends. Friends fight together you see." I stepped beside Mitra taking out my sword and smiled at him.
"HEHEHEHEHAHAHA" !!?? We suddenly heard the voice of someone. It doesn't sound like a human voice. "YOU HUMANS ARE AS ARROGANT AS ALWAYS.EVERYONE BRINGE THE HUMANS TO ME." hearing him the Orcs started towards us. Whose voice was that?? Why is he calling us? What does he want from us? More importantly, why are the Orcs following his orders!!??
The Orcs moved toward us. "Everyone take out your weapons and get ready for fight!!" Mitra shouted.
Instead of fighting a huge Orc grabbed me in his hand. Orcs are too powerful!!! He grabbed me so hard that I could not move a single finger. "AAAKKK!! Don't come near me!!!" Everyone was shouting in terror as the Orcs came near them.
Grabbing all of us the Orcs started moving. There were nearly twenty orcs surrounding us.
Now that I see an Orc closely, They are muscular with incredible strength with green skin. There teeth were too big but if they didn't have one eye I would think of them as Hulk but their faces are too ugly.
"!!" suddenly there was fire lit on both sides of the tunnel. Was that magic?? What the hell is the thing inside???
Slowly the Orcs brought us near a big.... no super huge door. 'Hehehe a door inside a [DOOR]' my mind slowly started joking in this tensed situation.
SUSHHHH The Orcs pushed the huge door slowly. Ooooo their muscles are..... I need some muscles like them!! No no no focus Rishi now we are gonna die!!!!
"SO YOU ARE HERE HUMANS." I heard the same voice that commanded the Orcs.
"What is a 'Magical Orc boss' doing here??!!" Mitra shouted in terror.
I am too tired to be surprised now. Everything that happened till now was all surprises anyway.
So the so called 'Magical Orc boss' was sitting on a huge throne playing with a fire ball as if it was a normal cricket ball.
"HUHH I WAS BORED TILL NOW NOW THAT THE HUMANS ARE HERE I CAN KILL SOME TIME BY KILLING THEM." the Orc boss said looking at us.
Everyone was totally terrified they could not even scream.

"ALRIGHT HUMANS I WILL GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO SAVE YOUR SELF." the boss Orc said with a smile on his face. Could every monster talk like this??
Hearing that we all looked at our faces. What?!! Why would he give us a chance to live??
"ONE OF THE HUMANS SHOULD FIGHT WITH ONE OF MY COMRADES IF YOU WIN YOU ALL CAN GO HOME BUT IF YOU DIE YOU ALL WILL DIE!!" the Orc boss said to us.
Damn now we are definitely dead!!! Only one 'One eyed Orc' can kill all of us and one vs one with it will be a disaster.
As the Boss monster signed with his hand the One eyed Orc left us on the ground. We all gathered at one place. Everyone was trembling in fear. "We are dead for sure." they started saying in fear.
"I will fight the Orc. If something happens to me you all escape from here." Mitra said keeping his hand on his sword. He was also as scared as us but he wanted to save all of us.
Everyone looked like they didn't like that idea but they couldn't say anything as their lives were on the line and he was the strongest of all of us.
But safety comes first for everyone. I should try to help everyone at any cost for their safety. I stepped beside him "No I will fight the Orc. Even if i am weak I have the confidence that I can put up fight for some time. If you get a chance run away from this place immediately. As Mitra would be with all of you, he can protect you if you all can get away from this place. The rescue team from IAA can come here by that time."
Everyone looked satisfied with my plan. Mitra kept his hand on my shoulder and and signed me don't go by shaking his head side ways but I smiled at him and stepped forward.
"SO IT IS DECIDED THEN HUMANS. AS ALWAYS YOU SENT ONE OF YOUR WEAKEST MEMBER EVEN IF YOUR LIFE IS ON THE LINE." the Boss Orc laughed at us. Then he signed with his hand to another Orc.
A huge Orc jumped into the field "ROAR!!!!" his roar almost made me deaf!! Then how powerful could he be??!!
I looked in the direction of my comrades and smiled at him. Even if I die I can at least help my comrades. I can die without any regrets. Thinking that I took out my sword and lifted it up.
It may not be too much but I learned to ow to wield a sword from Happi. The Orc started running towards me so I started running towards it.
I swinged my sword as I thought it was in my attack range "!!!???" "AAAAKKKK!!!" the Orc punched me on my stomach with his huge arm.
I was punched so hard that I was blown into the air bleeding blood from my mouth and nose.
Damn that hurts!! It hurts like hell!! I was sticking to the ground for just one punch??!!
No it's only been a moment that the fight started I have to get some time.
Holding my sword as strong as I could, I stood up with all my power gathered in my legs. Hehehe me being dead for just one punch?? That is impossible. I will fight till the end.
I slowly lifted my sword rubbing my nose with my hand. "So that's all you got?" the asked the huge One eyed Orc. He started running towards me again. The thing is I fell down quite far away from him.
So its time to use the real power of my weapon. Suddenly I realized that I was smiling. Why am I smiling? I clearly know that my enemy is super powerful that me.
[YOU HAVE USED THE SKILL ELECTRIC TOUCH] "!!??" suddenly the system popped in front of me.
So the system sows like this too huh. This was the skill I gained because I awakened [ELECTRIC TOUCH] an basic skill that every electric Arcaner has. I know that if I use this skill on a huge Orc he can resist it so I used it on what I had in my hands.
The truth is my weapon is made for this skill as my magic power is very low.
"!!!??" as expected everyone was surprised as my sword slowly turned into a light yellow colour and slowly heated.

After their fateful misadventure in the mountainous Norther Reaches of RUNDAO, a dark new threat to all of RUNDAO has been revealed to the mercenary band of THE CREEPING BAM and their newest member, half-orc bandit SHAYLINE SWIFT-KILL. Returning their hard-won cargo to THE SILVER ORDER in their city stronghold in BAVAT, they find their well-deserved rest will have to rest – half-elf wizard GAEL FOXTAIL’s father has disappeared while performing an investigation in the coastal city of UNTERMER, and it’s up to our motley crew to find him.

But there are daker forces at work here, and as they uncover a dark conspiracy and form an uneasy alliance with a trio of tough sellswords with their own stake in the game, led by dwarven warrior THELGAEWYNN FROSTFORGE, the Creeping Bam begin to suspect this may be connected to that unfinished business they started back up north … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.
