《reborn: wolf man》chapter 21: walkin around

“.... why me?”

“because you are master who is trying to hard to become strong at an age where play is usually the main goal in life.”

“dammit I want to quit training.”

“Suicide is man's way of telling God, 'You can't fire me - I quit.”

“really not the mood. So how painful is it going to be?”

“to be honest about as painful as when you sh*t out your Appendix and Bladder.”

“well do you want to start now?”

“well were going to need to prepare first”

“prepare what do you mean?”

“unlike the last time you don't have all the necessary items and things required for me to fix you”

“im not a robot, I can't be put together or taken apart you know. Anyways what do I need to get?”

“a bunch of bones.”

“how much?”

“id say 2 tons worth”

“so my storage ring full?”

“that would do”

after that I went to bed. And slept facing away from the front of the bed (facing wall). When I awoke Anna had some how appeared in front of me. She was sleeping quietly and easily with a soft expression on her face. Like a slight smile. Must be different only having a grandfather and then switching to a full house where everyone is lively. I get out of bed change my clothes so I’m only wearing pants and head to the river with my storage ring. Before I head to the river with my clothes I deposit my gold in my drawer. I had put magical traps on it so people won't even notice the drawer is their and so it will only open when I use magic on it. Today I didn't put my rings of gravity on because of Codex's warning. When I get to the river I wash all of my clothes including the pants I’m wearing. The river is downstream from the village so I dump all my stones into a pile creating a small pool of water. About 6 feet by 6 feet. Some village kids see me and approach.

“man Charles is so smart why didn't we ever think of making something like this?”(boy 1)

“ya Charles is so smart” (boy 2)

“hey Charles can we borrow this to clean our clothes and swim in?” (boy 3)

“sure”

the reason they wanted to borrow my little “pool” was because the water only comes up to our ankles along the whole river. This little pool came up to my waist. Meaning cleaning and bathing were much easier to do.

I then walked back home and dropped off my clothes to dry on a line behind the house. Since my task was to hunt for bones I figured the best way to do that is get FEAR and PAIN to do the work of killing and I would just gather the bones. I rode around on PAIN for the most part and was able to get some bones about 5 percent of what I needed but it took me all day. It seemed that the majority of the critters in the area had been wiped out by FEAR in the last 3 years and adding PAIN there seemed to be even less. Nothing bigger then a dog was seen the whole time we were out there. When I had supper I started a conversation a rare thing for me as I usually just demanded the information.

“so I heard that the number of animals in the area are very low”

“yes they are I think that FEAR has eaten everything big I the area”

“hm so FEAR has been eating everything, meaning its safe to explore the area right?”

it seems my mother wasn't expecting me to underhandedly get her permission to explore the area. Seeing how she already said its safe going to double back would look fishy even to a 3 and half year old (shy 2 months but oh well)

“um fine but don't get into any trouble okay Charles?”

“yup ill make sure I bring PAIN so I won't get hurt”

my mother seemed nervous the rest of dinner and I went to bed. But before I slept I deposited all the bones under the bed. Anna crawled under my arm and we slept.

I got up early and left ridding PAIN this was my first time trying this and it was very hard. My legs are to small to wrap around him so it feels like I’m laying on a moving flat surface. So I grab on to his Fur and tell him to move at a walking pace. As were moving slowly through the forest I ask codex

“so how is PAIN gonna change?”

“well a fire breathing head, an ice breathing head more correctly a dry ice breathing head and a acid breathing head. “

“that’s all?”

“he is a high level demon monster that are very rare he is already very strong.”

“oh I guess.”

that's when PAIN stops. I move farther onto his middle head. And look at what PAIN is looking at. Its a bandit camp. In the bandit however their are bandits of coarse but their is also goblins. From the look of it the bandits are ordering around the goblins. Although from its pretty obvious there is a language barrier as the bandits are giving orders then beating the goblins almost immediately afterwards. Its only a little after 7 o'clock on my watch (codex) and I have been riding PAIN for 2 hours. As im thinking about what to do Codex pipes up.

“they would be good minions”

“who the bandits?”

“no the goblins”

“i would have the same problem as the bandits are right now, a language barrier. Unless you know goblin?”

“i don't but I was thinking about you creating a dungeon”

“how would that do me any good?”

“in dungeons time is distorted depending on the size and scale of it the time can be 1.1 times longer or in extreme cases 5 times longer. That are the recorded time differences.”

“hmm so if I created a dungeon to study more I would age faster?”

“nope dungeons even though time moves slower in them you still age at the same pace.”

“cool so the goblins would be the guardians but their not even that strong...”

“in dungeons the life force can never be destroyed. When you die your life force is absorbed by the abyss but in a dungeon the dungeon absorbs your life force and keeps reusing it. For example a rat walks into the dungeon then dies of hunger. The dungeon can use that life force to recreate or revive the being as a dungeon guardian or use it to combine with another being with life force. Humans are the exception as they cannot be turned into guardians but they can be turned into zombies or skeletons.”

“so im guessing the older the dungeon the more mobs?”

“for the most part yes, but the dungeon is limited by its starting size, the size can't be made smaller or bigger. Since it distorts time and space a dungeon can have multiple entrances at other sides of the continent. However this function hasn't been really exploited as you have to cover more ground in the dungeon to reach a different entrance. This results in the older dungeons having stronger guardians or ghost guardians which can escape the dungeon.”

“why can ghost guardians escape?”

“ghosts guardians can escape because only dark magic can effect them, the dungeons are created using ancient magic which doesn't effect ghosts. This was most likely a function created so that the dungeons wouldn't have an overflow of magic which can cause an explosion to break the barriers holding the dungeon together to collapse.”

“so essentially ghosts are dungeon's ways of releasing pressure inside themselves”

“yes”

“so why do you want goblins?”

“guardians in dungeons are usually all different species causing them to be unable to breed as crossbreeding of monsters results in the death of the female monster when forced. However if we only had one type of mob in the dungeon then they could breed and create an infinite size of Guardians ”

“won't they attack me?”

“the creator of a dungeon can control all the Guardians and is the collective will of the dungeon. When the creator dies you may become the dungeons mind or the dungeon may create its own mind. The last part is all rumours as no one has contacted a dungeon mind in which the creator has died. Simply no one has figured out how to.”

“so we will have a goblin army at my beck and call?”

“only in the dungeon”

“so if the world gets taken over retreat to my dungeon for eternity?”

“that would be wise if the conqueror hated you”

“so what about the diversity of the dungeon? Wouldn't it be fairly easy to kill all the same goblin mobs?”

“In the Soviet army it takes more courage to retreat than advance.”

“safety in numbers eh? This might work...”

“we will have to create the dungeon first were do you want the entrance to be?”
