As they are approaching to talk to him...In meantime somewhere in forest near the city, a man coming back with wounds in his entire body, bleeding as he breathing so hard however this man was the little boy's father who fought the monsters alone and tell his son to run away...
He crawling and hoping that his son is fine inside the walls of the city...He keeps walking until he saw a small body torn to two parts then he goes to check this body to find out that that body belong to his son...
The screams and tears comes out of him as grabbing his son's body, breaks the humans and even the monsters heart, a shocking moment, a moment no father ever want to see, after all the sorrow and the pain he faced against the monsters
Now he finds that his only son whom was near to city walls is dead and torn two pieces like a ship sinking in it blood...So he grabs as laying down to die with his son, this man start praying to god for forgiveness as blaming himself for his son's death and in same time praying to whoever killed his son will get punished...
Back to this little boy's killer which is Zeral who just got interrupts by four soldiers trying to talk to him
So the first soldier named Aiden start the conversation with Zeral
"Hey, can we have few words with you sir?" with respect tone in his voice
Zeral looks at them but he keeps walking so the second soldier who named Jack says
"Sir, I'm Jack a soldier from city of Ozgan, I had a task from the King himself which is to find you and talk to you, so could you please listen to us?"
Then Aiden add to that by saying "Yes, we are looking for you just to talk nothing more"
Finally, Zeral pays attention to them as he looking to them again and says
"Just to talk? is that all? not to try to kill me?"
Jack says "Oh, of course no" as he start laughing "Hahaha no one going to kill you, we only here to talk and ask you some question that's all"
The third soldier which is Martin "Yes we don't kill humans for just no reason"
Zeral says "Oh so bad, then I have nothing to say to you...Of course no one going to kill me isn't obvious that I'm cursed with immortality"
Jack says "Oh, I heard about this rumor and didn't believe it, but I won't test it right now because as I said we are here to talk"

Aiden add to that "You see, even we knew that you are immortal, we are not afraid to talk to you because we knew you are human after all"
The fourth soldier called Jade asks "Immortal? really? how?"
Jack says "Jade, this is not the subject to worry about" as Zeral looking to Jade with a smile in the face then he says "Oh, you wonder how I'm immortal? alright, why not try to kill me?"
Aiden interrupts Zeral saying "No, sir we are not here to fight you please with all respect we only need to ask few question then we will let you continue in your path"
Jade says "Mhm, alright let's talk mister immortal" then Martin says "let's talk"
Zeral says "Stop wasting my time and talk quickly"
Jack says "As I said I'm from city of Ozgan, I got an order from the general to search for you and talk to you about some matters so here is the first question, what's your name? and where did you come from?"
Zeral start laughing at Jack as he saying "What's next how old I'm? Hahaha, Hell if I even know that as well so listen to me soldier, I'm not here to befriend with anyone I'm here to find just two answers that's all"
Jack says "Sir, this part of my job to get to know who you are and where are you from and most importantly what are you doing here?"
Aiden asks "Can you tell us about what you want to know? we may help you?"
Zeral answer "First of all it doesn't matter who I'm and what I'm doing here because nothing here interests me and for this war you having, it's not my business and I'm not even a human to care about.. I'm searching for an answer to my main question, which is what happened to the city of Bartak? who killed the people inside it?"
Martin says "What? city of Bartak?" Aiden so shocked "Why you?? you asking about it?"
Jack answer Zeral "You don't care about this war and yet you wonder about who killed all the people in that city? didn't you see the dreadful monster walking around?"
Jade add to that "Yeah those monster eat a lot of people everywhere, and we believe they start that in the city of Bartak"
Jack says "Yeah that was one of first city falls to hands of the monsters as we believe, we went to save that city but when we finally reached it we didn't find anyone alive...Then we saw the army of monster coming to our way as like they knew that city was already dead"
Zeral asks "So the monster did killed all of the people inside it?"
Martin says "That's right!" then Aiden asks "What? you think we did killed them? why? they are humans as we are we tried to save them but we were so late"

Jack says "I'm sorry if you had anyone horribly died in that city but don't blame us for something we never did...So listen sir...Your name please"
Zeral says "Alright, you can call me Zeral..."
Jade says "What? that is weird name isn't? but somewhere I heard that name" Martin interrupts Jade "Zeral? is it the short words from Zeralizion?"
Aiden says "Why are you calling yourself that name? it's the same name of the legendary beast, the silver sabertooth"
Zeral says "Yes that's right it means Zeralizion and I want to call myself that, you have problems with that?" as he touching his sword...
Jack says "Woow, calm down man, mister Zeral alright what is the second question you want to get an answer?"
Zeral with a smile in the face "Oh about that? it's simple ahahaha can you please kill me?"
All soldiers looks to each other as they wondering about that question then one of them says
"Alright, ahh as we said we are not here to fight you, besides you just said you are immortal so how are we going to kill you?"
Zeral says "That's why I don't give a damn about you or about this war because nothing here interests me I was an soldier like you I had a life I fought for your king for many years but back then I had purpose which is to die as a warrior like I lived"
Jack says "So no you can't die as you wants, I understand you know, but listen you still can make a new purpose to your life which is help us to fight those monsters and avenge them for killing all those innocents people"
Aiden add to that "Yeah, that's right come join us, this what king want from you"
Martin says "With you immortality and you skills will be big assets in our arsenal against those pathetic beings so come join us please, it's your chance"
Zeral looks to the soldiers for few seconds then says "Mhmm sounds nice idea so your king want me to serve him again? after what he done? hahaha how about go back to your king and tell him I said I will never ever serve you again and if I ever meet you one more time I will eat your heart" as he showing a terrifying expression in face
As all four soldier in shock from what they just heard...Zeral says
"He is the reason why the monster did exists in first place, he is the reason why my wife and son died in that city, he promised me to protect my family and my city but looks like he failed at the end and you want me to bow my head to him again..."
Aiden barely speaking "No...No...Don't speak like this about our king"
Jade start yelling "How dare you to threats our king?"
Jack calming Jade down then says "I'm not sure why you think the king was the reason but I guess you were one of the best soldiers in the kingdom to have a chance to meet the king in person? and you are from Bartak? so could it be...My...That's impossible..."
Martin asks Jack "What? do you know this man?" Aiden says "look you can't blame our king for what happened in that city"
Jack says as trembling "It's you? The hero of Bartak city? the man who fought nearly 30 years under the king's army, the man who received the award most respected soldier in the army years ago? The man who was reason to won the war against Alatils's Kingdom at south...I heard stories about you" as he lowering his head to Zeral
Jade says "I don't care about who the hell is he...He disrespected our king and won't join us so you are the enemies? and you want us to think you are hero?"
Zeral with a smile as he taking out his sword "A hero? who said I'm a hero? I was that man who was this soldier talking about, I was that 10 years ago but now I'm the Silver Sabertooth and I will not bow to your king or even your god, I will kill anyone gets in my way"
Jack asks "What happened to you? why are you saying this?"
Martin says as he shaking his hands "No wait why are you calling yourself the Zeralizion?"
Jade start yelling "I DON'T CARE! I will punish you for this..." as he starts running and grabbing his sword to attack Zeral...
So he hits Zeral's head with his sword as he screaming "I will cut your head HAAAAA!!" but the sword won't cut Zeral's head as he looking at him with a smile...Jade tries to cut Zeral's head but the sword stuck in the skin of Zeral which it was like shield...No one believes it, Jack says "Noo!! stop! he is really immortal"
Jade keep hitting Zeral head with the sword but with no effect then Zeral with a smile as he saying "Is that all?" then with one strong punch he smashes the skull of Jade to pieces as the blood getting out as a waterfall then Zeral says "Who is next? No one? what a waste of time"
The three remaining soldiers stunned, no one can even say anything as they looking to Zeral walking away...
The end.
