《The horseman, death》Chapter 9
Advertisement
It's been a week since we left the bandit camp. Or perhaps grave would be better name for it. Anyway we are in a forest that cristal calls Jade Forest. Apparently all year round the forest keeps its beautiful leaves which never fall off unless plucked. Thus always having a bright green color and in the height of spring the leaves appear to glow a soft green color making it look like jade hence the name. Cristal say's that somewhere in the forest there's a dungeon. She say's dungeons take in mana from everywhere and that mana goes through the forest keeping it alive and gives it it's glow in spring.
I am currently running with cristal on my back. It's simply to save time. Since I have my limiter ,which is the thing in your head that tells you when to rest and let your muscles relax, gone thanks to those scientists at the lab I can run for a month and still not even break a sweet. However since cristal still has hers she tires much more easily thus ending in our current situation.
Cristal: So what's this person were meeting like?
Me: Well to put it simply she's kind and quiet but if you make her mad she can become quiet sadistic.
Cristal: What do you mean by sadistic?
Me: Wellll... I once saw her whip a man to death but she did it in a way that the whip marks were only going in a few mm with each slash.
Cristal: Re..really?!
I could tell she was freaked out but for her own good I kept going.
Me: Yeah and she once used her powers to make a person constantly reproduce blood at a very fast rate.
Cristal: How is that bad?
Me: Well since the body can't hold much blood she made it so that the extra blood had to leave the body anyway it can.

Cristal: H...how did the blood leave that persons body?
Me: It escaped through their eye's, noes, ears, under their nails, and through their genitals non stop. Eventually the extra amount of blood was to much for their heart that it kept expanding slowly until it blew up.
Cristal: EEEEEEEEEK! PLEASE CAN WE JUST GO TO THE OTHER PERSON YOU KNOW!
Me: We could but he may use his powers for you to want to have sex with him.
Cristal: Is he at least cute?
Me: Last time I saw him he weighed 300 pds.
Cristal: I'll take the sadistic girl thank you very mu... hey... what's that?
I looked ahead of me to see what cristal was looking at. What I saw looked like a bear that was right ahead of us. It seemed like it noticed us and was preparing to strike. Since I wouldn't be able to slow down soon enough before reaching it I instead sped up. I could hear cristal yelling something but I was to focused to listen. The bear was shocked to see my speed suddenly go to the point of almost becoming a blur ( Could have been a blur but would put to much stress on cristals body) that I was able to kick it's head and hear the loud snapping noise of it's neck breaking before it could take a swing at us. While we just kept going.
Cristal: ARE YOU CRAZY?
Me: What?
Cristal: DO YOU REALIZE WHAT THAT WAS?
Me: A bear?
Cristal: NOT JUST A BEAR! IT WAS A WAR BEAR!!
Me: What's the difference?
Cristal: A war bear is strong enough to take on 50 trained soldiers and knights. If you capture it as a cub you can train it to fight.
She answered with a little anger still in her voice then she sighed.

Cristal: You know what i'm gonna make a vow that anything you do will no longer surprise me.
Me: Why would you do that?
Cristal: Because if I don't I might get a heart attack before i'm 30 from all the stress.
Okay really how long is she going to stay with me? Then we are suddenly in a clearing and about 20 meters away from us was a completely white horse no more than a few years old limping with a arrow in it's leg.
Cristal: Is that... an anomaly?!
Me: A what?
Cristal: Oh sorry. Anomaly's are beings that are both animal and magic beast. Thanks to them having both blood lines they have great power however they can't access that power without the help of a master. Without a master to release their power they will always be a child. They however are the one's who choose their own master and their very picky on who they choose. The master has to meet certain requirements. You can tell which is a anomaly with their traits that is different from both animal and magical beast. In this case this guy is completely white.
After hearing cristals little lesson I put her down, took out a bottle with liquid we found at the camp that cristal calls a healing potion, and approached the horse. Personally I was thinking that if it chooses me as it's master then that ads to my arsenal and if not then judging by cristals words this thing had intelligence to make requirements for a master and it might repay me for what i'm about to do in the future. However I was rooting for me being it's master.
I Approached the horse grabbed it so it couldn't run and yanked the arrow out. It neighed then passed out. I quickly took the potion and poured it on the wound and it could visibly be seen healing. We waited for 4 hours for it to wake up. However time was of the essence and I couldn't wait much longer and risk pissing off a god for not following orders. Nor could I carry it and cristal so I put a apple I found in front of it and we left.
