《Tremors Of Time: Spirit Gauntlet》Chapter 11 Discovered and Unlocked
Advertisement
In a small un-exceptional forest, miasma permeated the ground and low-level monsters brustling inside this run-of-the-mill forest. Many knew about this forest and thought of it as a training ground at least and resources at most, but no one could have foretold the conversation happening in a small old manor in front of a withered old man with an equally withered body and a young bear beast-men sitting opposite of him, would change the world as they knew it for better or for worse
Excel: " So you're saying I'm a piece of the vibrating metal ( If I tell anybody of this I can just imagine the jokes).( This is some bullshit.) First of all, how would you know all of this? Second of all, If this all happened a long time ago why weren't the elementals destroyed? " I asked a hint of wonder and disbelief in my voice.
Draigo: " Hahahahahahaha I guess your right, Boy. I'll tell you why I'm saying the truth before that though let me answer your second question. A cough cough. Back around 200 years ago, a young orphaned half starved human boy in the slums of the capital of Scion Kingdom found a rusty and broken sword laying on the ground. The boy picked up he then heard a weak whispering coming from somewhere and an unexpected rush of energy escaping his body. Once the boy woke up from lack of energy induced slumber the sword started talking to him the same way I'm talking to you. The sword told him many things the true history of the world, Mysterious powers, and Giant monsters were some of them. The sword then told the boy of his history and his quest for revenge. The sword convinced the boy to help him in his path of revenge. The boy then told the sword " I eat meat with a green color, I sometimes have to drink from the sewage, and I always go to sleep with an empty stomach" He said clenching his hands so hard that his hands bled. " You say that you have a way out of this HELL ON EARTH, " He said his hatred apparent. " I accept" He practically screamed. " from that day onward he would train from dawn to dusk and the sword would turn in avatar form and bring animals to eat. cough cough. A decade later the boy turned into a striking man with red hair, masculine figure, gray eyes, and leather armor covering him started his journey to get stronger, and a few decades later he did just that he traveled to undiscovered places, met people, helped the poor, and increased his power to be. Before he could start his attacks on the elementals they attacked him in a group. He was surprisingly stood his ground and almost defeated them but the sword was broken by fire destroying half his power and breaking the sword in half. The man almost died by a burn mark on his back Fire gave him before running away never to be found again presumed to be dead. The elementals couldn't destroy the pieces so they broke it into 5 pieces and randomly threw them around the world never to be found again. The elementals are still recuperating from their injuries that mean from all the attack on the elementals only that time was is it serious, because of that the next attack on the elementals can kill them but it has to be stronger than the last one for it to kill the elementals" He said in a heavy tone.

Draigo: " You must've gotten notifications, right?" He asked. I nodded my head. " Now you know that I told you the truth, but here's how I know this. COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH " blood drips from his mouth. "Are you okay?" I asked with worry in my voice. " Where did your balls go kid, it's just morning fever," he said " back to what I was saying how I know all of this was because I was the boy" Draigo turns around to show his back and takes off his cloak. There was a Long black gash running along his spine. Veins were easily visible. Draigo Put his cloak back on.

So I will teach you all I know in that time and leave you with this quest, will you do this."

"Avatar Ex," I said as my turned into a wispy substance and reformed into my beast-men form. I and the old man talked for a half hour and I started to give up to leave. " Bye, you shitty old man," I said to him now familiar with him. " Bye Vibrating hands," He said an equally familiar voice. I step out of the small manor and go back to the earlier location. "CCRRAAAAAP, I forgot to ask for a weapon" I take a deep breath. ( it's okay you'll do what you did last time). I stopped for a moment to calm myself. I looked around taking in the scenery the sunset making the forest look heavenly ( let's do this ). I spend the next few minutes finding a rabbit I finally found a lone rabbit standing near a tree. I rushed at the rabbit spreading my hands, the rabbit immediately sensed my hostile presence and proceeded to attack me the rabbit's feet tense. I raised my clenched fist and hit the rabbit taking a fourth of its life. The rabbit pounces on me and kicked me while jumping about dealing about 3 health points. I cried slow touch and attacked the rabbit causing it to jump in the air which then I grabbed his hind legs and started swinging him ( he must've been affected by slow touch by now ). I let him go mid air letting him hit the tree taking away the rest of the HP. ( Why did I even use slow touch now I have no more vibrations ) I approached the rabbit and touched it about say loot when I realized it was still warm. "Absorb, It worked YESS" I stood there waiting for Vibrations to get refilled ( I got to do 3 more, lets do this)

All World Online
Damien Close, age 19, becomes a quadriplegic after an unfortunate car accident, losing all function of his body from the neck down. With his parents in shock and his best friend suffering from unbearable guilt, Damien finds himself without much support. Being unable to even take his own life, Damien struggles to get past each day, looking for something to live for. With every passing day, Damien becomes more solemn and impassive. Three months later, Damien has almost given up, but to his surprise something unexpected happens. He is given the chance of a lifetime; to take part in a study focused on researching the effects of VR games on quadriplegic patients. Authors Note: If you find that the dialogue from the prologue to chapter 5 seem to be not that smooth, I apologize for that, it was my first time writing a fanfic so the dialogue was not in a format that is ideal. However, due to reader comments and some research I will try to attempt to improve the dialogue from chapter 6 and onwards. I may or may not come back to edit the first few chapters since I would have to rewrite most of it and I would rather spend that time writing out more of the story.
