Alejandro is about to fall into his knees. However, he is caught by Uriel who says:
“Good job…”
“You really think so?”
“Yes...you did good…”
(CLAP CLAP CLAP)
“Splendid work Alejandro...you’ve proven yourself to be part of Yggdrasil…” Heidi claps as she walks with the other members. Shion hurries to help him; “Alejandro, your wound…”
“I’m fine...just a scratch…”
“Alejandro...you did it…” Valerie runs to hug him. Carlos looks at him with jealousy; “Damn it, why can’t it be me….” Chelsea laughs at him; “Hey...you can see him if you want to…”
“Shut up…” Carlos says with his face all red. Shion cures Alejandro’s wound; “Thank you...Ms. Shion…”
“No problem…” Shion replies with a smile. -CRACK CRACK- “Alejandro...you haven’t defeated me yet...I am still here…” Navajo says as he slowly walks towards him; “I will never stop...because...I have an objective...I…”
(SSSSLLLLAASSHHHH)
In the blink of an eye, Kasumi appears and cuts Navajo’s head off. Navajo sees his body as his head flies into the sky; “It can’t be…”
Navajo’s head falls into the ground. He slowly begins to disappear; “Sorry my brethren...I won’t be able to revive you...that Golden City...my dream...ends here…”
“It’s foolish to believe that someone could return from the dead...you know that too well…” Kasumi says as she puts her glasses on.
“I see…” Navajo looks at Alejandro and smiles thinking; “I guess, I was jealous of you...I hope that one day...I will see you aga....”
Kasumi puts her sword away as she looks at Uriel; “I applied justice to him...that’s all…” Uriel chuckles:
“Thank you, for having mercy…I would’ve tortured him a little...what a kind soul you have…”
Alejandro walks towards Anastasia; “Anastasia, are you okay?”
Anastasia slowly lifts her body and replies; “Yes...I’m okay...Master…” Alejandro hugs her and says; “Call me...Brother...because you are like my sister from now on...I will protect you…” Anastasia hugs him back; “Understood...Brother…”
On the top of the hills, El Muerto looks at them:
“I guess it was mission accomplished...however, I was too careless...see you tomorrow President…” The cape moves a little revealing green eyes under a pair of glasses.
Rosa sighs, feeling relieved; “I was so worried that Alejandro might have died…”

“You must trust him more Tia...Alejandro is a strong young man…” Flor says as she puts her hand on her shoulder.
“Alright time to go…” Alejandro stands up, he begins to shine. Heidi begins to warn him; “Alejandro, before you run out of mana, when your esper suit disappears, it also disappears your…”
(PPOOOFFF)
“What the…my clothes…” Alejandro immediately covers his man-parts.Everyone is in shock, as Alejandro is completely naked. “HAHAHA WHAT A LOSER…” Carlos laughs pointing at him. Valerie blushes, Uriel covers her eyes. “YOU PERVERT...COVER YOURSELF…” Tiwa punches Alejandro, sending him flying. Everyone begins to laugh. Uriel looks at the graveyard and thinks; “This place...it’s familiar.”
(BBBAAADDUUUMMPPP)
“Is something wrong...Big Brother?” Valerie asks Uriel, Uriel looks at her and replies; “No...everything is fine…”
On the night of March 6th, Sun City was saved from a silent invasion...nobody knew what happened in the mountains and they will never know...On that night, the last Skinwalker was defeated and at that night...the moon was witness to the birth of the Silver Hero…

March 7th, Sun City International Highschool
The next day, Alejandro had to face Olivia about the actions of the previous night…
“So, that’s how it all went down…” Alejandro finishes explaining to Olivia. Anastasia stands next to him. Olivia looks at him with a serious expression:
“You know, you put my daughter in grave danger...not only that...you also caused a ritual that could’ve caused the end of the world...that was very immature...I think I will take her back”
“I know, and I’m sorry…” Alejandro apologizes once more. Anastasia takes a step forward; “Please mother...Alejandro risked his life to save me...he deserves to be pardoned…”
Olivia looks at Anastasia talking to her like a normal person; “Anastasia...you…”
“Mother...I want to stay by his side...he promised to be my brother from now on...I want to be with him…” Anastasia holds his arm, making Alejandro nervous.
Olivia who is still in shock sighs with her eyes closed thinking; “I guess, you really are a powerful person...to have changed Anastasia like that...Aleister was right…”
“Fine, you may stay with him...on one condition…”
Alejandro looks nervous; “What condition?”
“Promise me that you will never put her in that level of danger ever again…” Olivia looks at him with a serious expression.

“I promise that I will never put her in that kind of danger again…”
“Perfect...remember, if you break that promise...I will hunt you down…” Olivia says in a joking matter.
Alejandro laughs nervously; “I understand…”

Nurse’s Office
Johanna and Kasumi drink some coffee as they talk…
“Thank you for getting M.I.S.T off our backs…”
“You’re welcome....if I hadn't intervened...you would have probably killed them right?” Johanna replies as she takes a zip from her coffee. Kasumi remembers Uriel hugging her and replies:
“No...because that would’ve been for vengeance…”
“Oh so, you remember Uriel’s words ehh...tell me, hugging him turned you on…”
“JOHANNA...NO...WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?”
“I am only saying what you are thinking...hahaha…” Johanna teases Kasumi who has her face all red.
Kasumi looks at her coffee; “Johanna...do you like your job?”
“Where did that come from?”
“I am just asking…”
Johanna looks at Kasumi and replies; “It’s not a matter if I like it or not…I have no choice..”
“I see...I guess we're the same right?” Kasumi smiles at Johanna. Johanna smiles back thinking; “No Kasumi...in truth...I hate my job…”
***************************************************************************
Sun City Mayor’s Office...
“So, Anastasia is okay huh...I’m sorry I couldn’t help, I was in an important business…” Darius Lucifugus, Mayor of Sun City and Anastasia’s father, says to Olivia.
“I understand dear...Alejandro was the one who saved her…”
“Ahh yes, that boy...he is quite the character isn’t he…”
“Indeed...he might be useful for us in the future…”
“Getting back to the subject, I heard some students are going to travel to Mexico. Am I correct?” Darius says as he sits at his desk.
“You are correct dear, there was a request from two of our teachers and I thought why not…” Olivia says as she drinks tea.
“Excellent, you see, there have been strange activities in Tenochtitlan...and I think we might have a clue about the golden city...I want you to send “them” to Mexico in one month from now...” Darius replies as he smiles.
“I understand dear, do you have some students in mind?”.” Olivia replies as she laughs.
“Yes...I want Alejandro….and “him” to go….oh, and send that teacher...the one from Yggdrasil as well...she might be useful...” Darius looks at their picture.
“Alright I am sending those but why?” Olivia asks with a confused face.
“You see Olivia, those two are perfect to find that city, I have a good hunch my dear.” Darius replies with a smile.
“Alright if you say so I'll send them.” Olivia says as she prepares to leave.
“Hold on there is one more person I would like you to send as well.” Darius says as he shows a picture of Johanna to Olivia. Olivia is left confused:
“Why her, she is just a nurse?”
“Hahaha, she is not just a nurse, she is a danger to us but she is the right person to go as the “GODS” will go crazy over there, and you might need a doctor.”
Olivia leaves the office and both of them say at the same time:
“We are Enlightened”
***************************************************************************
The Place where the Secret Hideout was…
At the place where the secret hideout was once located, there is a crater...In the crater...It is after school and Alejandro slowly made an altar for his deceased friend…
“Mr. Jairo...thank you for always being there for me...without you...I would have lost my way…” Alejandro says as he looks at Jairo’s grave.
“I see you made a grave for Mr. Jairo…” Uriel walks next to Alejandro. Alejandro replies; “Yes...I owe my life to Mr. Jairo...I just wish he could’ve lived longer you know…”
“Of course, but everyone has their time...and Jairo’s time to leave was that night.”
“I know…” Alejandro replies to Uriel. Uriel looks at the sky and says; “I’m sure he is proud of you...remember that…”
“Thank you...Uriel…”
“Now then, let’s talk about the date that you want with my sister…” Uriel puts on a serious expression. Alejandro begins to sweat:
“About that...hey I have a student council meeting...sorry gotta go…”
Alejandro runs away from Uriel:
“Oh no...now I made him mad…”
Uriel makes a fist and makes a sinister smile:
“ALEJANDRO….WAIT!”
Alejandro begins to scream:
“WHY ME!”

The carnomancer
Jackson was but a normal american just looking to get by in life. unfortunately for him life had other plans as a terrorist bombing took place in the air port in london where he was getting off at. The resulting explosion killed him instantly, and now he has been reincarnated into the world of Rokna.In this new world of magic, monsters, and conflict join him under his new identity Adimir freelancer the adventurer half-elf as he seeks a way to live out an exciting life of researching new and creative ways of combining magic and science. But with a tyrannical empire beginning to prepare for a bloody war the signs of turmoil begin to loom on the horizon. Adimir will face numerous challenges. Both challenges to those native to this world, and against other people have come from earth. Author's comment: I'll be uprfont with you on the entire war thing that the description hints at. Yes it will eventually happen, and many of the strange and out of place things in the beginning will tie into that. Not that it will be explained until much later in the novel. In fact the first 100 or 200 chapters will be spent on the main character growing stronger as an adventurer before the entire war even begins to start rearing its ugly head. So for those eager for the war to kick off sorry, but there won't be a big explosive war so early. At least not with the empire (although if you read carefully you may be able to pick up signs of how close the war is with what happens in the story). But the wait (I hope) will be worth it as it will be diving into some of the stuff a otherworlder in a significant position of power could do with the right knowledge. With that little warning over with I hope you enjoy this novel of mine. Its my first actual attempt at writing a story for people to read so please keep that in mind. If you have any criticism please tell me. I'd love to read them and will be using them to help me in improving my writing quality as time goes on. Experience is the best teacher after all.
