Chapter 18 TISZ Wick
================
Swish… Swish…
Two shadow running past among the tree at high speed. The speed can be called nearly as fast as an athlete. Look like it is true that the saying that say when someone running for their life that they can run at the speed that they never reach before in their life even taking consideration of their whole life. When something became dear to their life they can break the human limit but in the end it will claim their life as the limit was put there so that it will not claim the life of that human.
The limit of the human can be called a double edge sword. In the time of distress for them to save their own life or someone dear to them it can be used to get out of that situation but the other side of that breaking through the human limit was that it destroy the owner body as the tissue in the body breaking apart as it unable to contain the stress that push into it. The stress on the tissue was too big than the amount that the tissue able to handle that it make the tissue broke under it.
There was some case where a granny able to lift a car off his grandson when the car was flip and pined that grandson under it. The granny able to lift the car of their grandson and save him but not long after that she died with the cause of old people life.
Run… Run… Run…
Faster… Faster… Faster….
That was the only thought that present in their head. To run away from this place. Getting their own self from harm and get them to safety. When looking at them it look like no matter what happen to their surrounding nor aware of the people close to them. They will ignore it and run away as fast as they can from this place to save themselves.
At the front there the jacket drape guy and the skinny guy at the back. It seem that the jacket drape guy run faster than the skinny guy as he is the one at the front.
“Ha… Ha… Ha… Ha…”
With the sound of the ragged breathing they continue to run. Even though that they feel that their breathing growing more erratic they do not want to stop running from this place.
Even the swallow stop and land on earth sometimes to rest so the human that only stay on earth take more rest than the swallow must be more weaker as they rest more. No matter how much they do not want to rest but their body demand it to rest for a while so as the time passed the speed of their run slow down and eventually to a stop.
Now, at this time both of them are resting on the ground and on their face show an expression of happiness for living this time.
“Ha… Ha… Ha… Damn. Good job fatty for became the bait for us to ran away from that place”
“Yeah, never thought that the fatty will became useful for us just now”
“I always thought that he was a burden and there must be some mistake that he was able to live through to this time. It look like he live just to became the bait for us to run away”

““Hahahahahaha””
Laughing at the foolishness of fatty for dying like that and making them able to run away from there make they feel exallerated at the foolishness of fatty. They feel fatty should got a laugh for his action.
After laughing for a while and calm down from that fit. They begin to get up and want to walk away from here. That when the skinny guy feel that he will be dead.
At that time in front of skinny guy there standing looking at him unlike before this time Tom no longer adapt that weird posture but a normal posture by standing there in front of skinny guy. Tom right now in the posture of with the right hand of his cross to the other side and the left hand holding his own chin like he want to support it while rubbing at his nonexistence beard.
Skinny guy see this freeze at that spot without being able to move. He want to move from here. Running away from this place but his leg feel like it stuck on the earth unable to move. He feel like that no matter how much energy he use to move his leg it still stuck there unable to move.
All of this came from the fear that he feel when looking at Tom. He feel the leg of him shake with uncontrollable force. It make him unable to move from here. Even though that the head of his send the information that right now run away from here was the right choice but he cannot run. His leg refuse to move away it feel like something holding his leg.
The reason that he cannot run away from that place all attribute to him that feel fear that never before. He was too afraid that every pore in his body refuse to move away.
His heart it feel like it been clenched by something and it hurt. He do not know that the feeling that transmitted from his heart right now was the feeling of extreme dread and fear that making the heart of his pumping the blood faster. The hair on his all of it now standing straight and it really hard that it feel like needle if it stab someone.
Tom only looking at him without making any other movement. It like he is right now feeling amused by the reaction given by the skinny guy. The movement of the skinny guy, the skin of his that became paler over time, the face of him that show him a wide eye and the sweat that painting his whole body that the cloth of the skinny guy drenched in it.
The jacket drape guy right now standing at the side of the skinny guy and he also froze over. The same as the reaction of the skinny guy he just standing there. The difference between him and the skinny guy was the pressure feel by them. The sight of Tom right now fall on the skinny guy so the pressure feel by the jacket drape guy was lower than the skinny guy.
Even though the pressure on him lower but the reaction that he show the same as the skinny guy. Cowering at the side without being able to move. He did not know why but his leg feel like it make of lead that it hard to move it.

No matter how much he feel scared he was still able to snapped out of it after sometime. This was all attribute to the pressure on him emitted by Tom much lower. Making the pressure pushing down on him low making him able to snap in lower time.
When he snap out of it he begin to move out of here. Running away from this place and taking the lead in it. When he begin to from this place he just start to run all of a sudden in one go making it a noisy run away.
This action of the jacket drape guy cause the skinny guy to snapped out of his frozen state. Looking at Tom again this time he do not feel the pressure like before because this time in a state of panic he take a step and tried to run away from here.
No matter what he done to save himself now, Tom already set his eye on the skinny guy. The only way was for him to run away from Tom was to move as fast as lightning. To gain that speed was impossible for him as he only a normal human so there no way he is able to outrun Tom.
Tom with his fast speed appear in the front of the skinny guy suddenly. This make the skinny guy to be shocked at that speed that Tom show unlike before.
Tom then clenched his both arm into a fist at the side and taking a stance. This stance with the both of his feet on the ground, Tom sucked the air in his front making the skinny guy stumble forward. As the chest of the Tom become big enough that it seemingly filled with air it then shout out.
The air in the Tom chest then move out of Tom. This air form a ball that made of fast moving air around Tom. This ball take Tom as it center making it a big ball of wind that move in the shape of the ball. This wind move at high speed that it produce a sharp edge at the place that the wind move. It cause the ground below it to be mow down by that ball of wind.
The skinny guy that was in the range of the ball of wind was shredded to piece by the ball of wind that form by Tom.
The ball of wind first cut the right arm of the skinny guy, then it move to the leg of the skinny guy. After that it redirect to the other part of the body. It then cut through all part of the body of the skinny guy making him turn into paste. The last thought that the skinny guy had was that Tom only play with them all this time. With that speed it impossible for Tom not be able to catch them. Friend, you are dead. Hahahaha.
After the skinny guy into paste Tom then dispelled the ball of wind surround him. The moment he dispelled that ball of wind it create a shock wave that move to the surrounding.
The resulting shockwave then hit the drape jacket guy in the distance. He was hit because the time that he ran away and the time that the skinny guy began to run also not even exceed ten seconds. This cause the jacket drape guy that not manage to run far enough to involve in the resulting blast of shockwave.
“Fuck…. What the heck? I am dead”
This cause him to stumble forward and making wheel turn while using his hand to protect his head. After the resulting blast he get up from that position because he want to begin running from this place.
Alas that it was too late for him to make that action. This was because as he began to run a tentacle like shape shoot out from behind the tree and take hold of all of his limb.
The silhoutte of a kid appear from behind the tree. This was the ghost of the kid known as Tom. Right now at the back of Tom there exist four tentacle on the back.
This tentacle then drag the jacket drape guy toward the Tom. As the distance between them decreased the jacket drape guy struggle stronger and stronger. No matter what he need to do, he must get out of this or he will be dead.
As the distance decreased between them, the jacket drape guy can see clearly the image of Tom. What he see right now terrified him more than ever and he struggle more and more right now.
Looking at Tom right now, there nothing change when seeing at far away but when see at the distance closer to Tom it can be seen that there a difference in Tom than the usual.
Right now on the body of Tom that extend from his chest to the hip it can be see that there a sharp teeth emerge. A big mouth with the size that able to eat an adult was present on the body of Tom vertically.
Using the tentacle to drag the jacket drape guy to the direction of the mouth, Tom only show a sinister smile on his face looking at the fit of the jacket drape guy.
“No… No… No…This will not be my end. This will be how died. Damn! Damn! Damn it!!!!”
The jacket drape guy was drag to the mouth on Tom. As the mouth begin to eat him producing a crunch… crunch… sound the cried of the jacket drape guy became louder and louder.
“It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt… It hurt…”
“Mmmmmooooommmmmiiiiiieeeeessss”
Blurgh….
Eating that guy slowly until his head enter the mouth then the struggle of his began to weaken and then stop. The rest of that time it move on without any struggle making it anticlimactic after that. Done eating the jacket drape guy the mouth on Tom make sound of full from eating that guy.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.
