Author’s note: Well, this chapter can be a bit bad, since I have so much work piling on me lately. The chapters may release slower than before. I still sure hope you enjoyed my story! And please tell me what to do next in the comment section!
Part 1
Hood was walking through the rough hallways of the Xion academy, the walls were painted with white, with ancient carving about gods and monsters all over the place. Yes, ever since the attack on one of Xion’s city. The demons had been unrelentlessly attacking all over the place. They unleashed dragons, orcs, demons, and corrupters to attack the cities. Fortunately, the kingdoms are more prepared to deal with the problem than before. So they already planned an evacuation. Nevertheless, the pure force of the demon army is terribly scary. But the worst of them all is…
(Gates, huh) The hooded boy thought as he continued walking down the hall. Gates are what they called. ‘twist in space’ which is actually a rift that spawns random strong monsters from the void. The demon king utilises this by causing a rift in a kingdom
The monster that emerged from these gates are all legendary class monsters. Some of them could alone crush a city to a pulp. Others have strange abilities to manipulate the raining or barrenness in a certain area. Some of them got recruited into the demon army, others stay silent and lives in isolation.
Luckily, these 'Gate' occurrences are rare, and hence not being too much of a problem. It seems that summoning heroes will cause certain fluctuations in space and time, and can cause these rifts to be opened.
Mark walked on with his mask still covering his eyes. The promised fight with Hanna, Alice, and Rohana had been delayed for a while due to all these demon attacks. But today is the day he will fight them, and maybe reveal his identity to them and also his class. His face looks only a little different from his previous world's 16 years old boy.
He arrived at the arena too. It's interior was larger than even a football field. The walls were white, and little magic lamps are hanging all around the room.
There stood Mira, the conductor and coach for this match. Mark will be fighting against Hanna, Alice, and Rohana, the members from the three major races.
Hanna stood opposite of 'Hood' she was determined to get the gun back. She can allow a relic of her lost brother to be in the hands of any stranger. Alice and Rohana had just finished planning, and they are ready to fight.
Hood was standing there, his cape dangling in the wind. This room was made to as much as possible represent the area outside. It has trees and many other terrains here and there.
"So you've come, Hood..." Hanna said out, anger seething from her body. She was wearing a glove and her blonde hair was tied up into a ponytail.
"You promised us you would give us the gun of that idiot, right?" Rohana slowly said out, her green hair fluttering in the wind. She had a large staff with him. And the tip of the staff had a pointed end. She had a serious expression on her face. And fluttering lights were surrounding her body.
"I won't underestimate you like last time, Hood. Prepare yourself." Alice said and her red hair was fully let down. She wired the diamond gloves that Mark once gave to her. And ready to fight.
Hood saw all this, and then he decided on a rule.

"How about this, if you can break my mask, I'll give you the gun back.”
"You sure?" Alice asked in surprise, but was glad at the opportunity. This man doesn't fear the trio even after witnessing their powers, so he must be plenty strong according to her experience.
"Why not?" Hood answered back merrily. And he readied his stance. The light in his eyes seems to grow brighter.
"Duel, start!!!" Mira shouted out the signal of the battle, and the grand fight began.
Part 2
Jayborino was eating lunch with Sakura. When he finished eating, he met up with Chiron and they go on to the arena room. Where Hood is currently fighting with the trio.
He knew how strong the trio is. But he also knew how terribly powerful Hood was. He fought mocking fights with him many times, but never seemed to come close to defeating the man himself.
"Who do you think would win, Jay?" Sakura asked out curiously.
"Well, the trio girls are truly strong, but Hood seems to be stronger than any of them. I can't guess the outcome of this duel. But if you're letting me choose, I'm going with Hood."
"Hmm... Hood taught me, but I've never seen his true power. So I am not betting too hard. I'll go with the trio girls" Sakura said out, she doesn't think that Hood was strong enough, last time fighting Jayborino should be the limit of his power according to her logic.
"Well, we'll know soon enough!" Chiron said and entered the arena. They saw the contestants ready to fight, the rest of the heroes and teachers were there too.
"3 2 1... START!!" Mira shouted out the signal.
Hood retreated back, dodging the tree roots sprouting from his very ground. And Alice closed in to punch him. Hood moved his face to the side and countered back with a jabbed. Alice was blown away by pure force. Her body toppling along the arena's floor.
Alice regained her stance and rushed forward with earth fists floating around her. And Hanna was also rushing in with her monstrous strength. Her fists were covered by fire on the left, and ice on the right. Hanna came from the left while Alice came from the right.
Mark brought a large block of metamorphic rock from underground. It blocked the two girls for about a second, before they broke it apart. Hanna continued rushing in, until she notices that…
She was slowing down rapidly. All Hood did was just using his two hands to block their punches, then smashed them together. The girls were then thrown away and crashed into the walls.
Hood severely increased the air friction around him. Causing the two girls to slow down. But Hood used Ares's power to further increase his defense.
Rohana quickly healed them both before whispering to them. They seem to have a plan, but Hood wasn't aware of it. He gathers huge amounts of water around him to create a big ball of pure water. And smashed it down at the trio.
The surprised girls then noticed that their bodies were frozen. The water that was splashed down was frozen instantaneously. Hanna struggled out, but by the time she was free, Hood had already left his place. He condenses the air below him and flew upward, then send down hails at his enemies.
"Ugh!!!" Rohana created a barrier to shelter the three girls, the rain of hails continued for a while, Hood judged it ineffective. And decided on a different trick.
Hood used electromagnetism to manipulate the iron sands underground. It gathers and Hood created 40 flying drills, and shot it towards the girls, Alice used brute force to completely crush it. While Rohana shot a bright ball of light magic towards Hood.

Hood then chanted a spell. "The god of flames who destroys all with her fury, !!!!"
A black flame shot out and engulfed the ball of light. Eating away the energy and slowly disappeared. Rohana was shocked by this event, but still prepares her stance.
Mark summoned a plasma blade and rushed towards Alice, but Alice dodged the blade and tried kicking Hood. Hood, however, continually used his hands to grab Alice's thigh, and swung her away. He charged up his mechanical hands and shot out shots of plasma at Alice. She was blown backwards with the blast of it colliding with her fists.
"Ugu!!!" She toppled over and over again, and at last slowed Down.
Hood then tried to rush into Rohana, but…
Before that, though, Hanna rushed in with her fiery fist and used it to crush Hood's Mask. But Hood dodged it and blocked it with his left mechanical hand. Then he noticed tree roots bursting from underground. It covered him up. The area under his feet was now pulling him down.
Rohana had made a plan with Alice to distract Hood while Rohana secretly cast her magic, . And Hanna used quagmire to stop him from escaping. Then Hood was quickly covered by layers of magic trees.
"HAHHHH!!!!" Hanna had used Earth Magic to summon a mighty golem. And it smashed its fist down at Hood that was covered by tree roots and bark. The earth golem was made by combining Rohana's tree hardness and strength. The rock's sharpness. And Alice's strength.
The trio knew for sure that they would win, until they witnessed a strange sight.
A golden light shot out from under the golem. The golem started crumbling, the sounds of its fist and body breaking resounded throughout the arena room. The onlookers and the trio girls looked at the scene in astonishment.
"That almost got me, I praise you for pushing me this far, I even needed to use " A sound resounded from the golem, and cracks continued to make rattling sounds echoing through the room.
There, a man stood with blood flowing down his head. His mask was cracked. Behind him, 6 majestic golden arms raised out sheltering him. Carrying the golem's fist. It slowly retracted itself. And Hood walked out from the wreckage behind him. He smiled, he was proud at the three girls. They once traveled with him, and they fulfilled their promise to become stronger.
Cracks continued running up through his mask.
Hanna, Rohana, and Alice saw Hood picking something up from his pouch. It was a normal music box.
"You girls win this time!"
Hood smiled and opened the music box, the sweet melody came out of it. Hanna noticed the song right away, and stared at Hood in wonder. She then recalled certain words.
'I'll return, and when I do, I will open the music box for you, so that you will know its me’
Those were the words spoken by the boy who sacrificed himself 6 years ago.
The masks finally give in to the burden, and broke apart. It fell down to the ground, revealing a smiling face of the man a certain girl called Onii-Chan.
Hanna slowly said out the next couples of word.
“O-Onii-Chan?"
"Long time no see~”
Yes, his name…
Is Mark.
Part 3
The whole class was shocked, not the fact that the girls knew the no. But shocked that…
"...Siris?" Chiron said out as she stared at the boy who taught her the ways of this world.
"Impossible... How could he appear here?" Jayborino uttered out, equally surprised by the event.
It was his best friend, the boy who always protected him from Marco, and treated him as a friend.
-Back on the Arena-
"ONII-CHAN!!!!!" Hanna wailed out as she ran and hugged her long-lost brother. Rohana and Alice were still in a daze, till they realized who they were looking at. And Ra towards him as well.
"Why, why didn't you come back sooner?" Hanna asked as she was sunk in Mark's embrace.
"Well, the time stasis locked me too, so I can't run away easily y'know." Mark was smiling as he released Hanna. But was attacked by an approach from the front. It was Alice, she was much bigger than before. And her body was very firm, yet soft. Her cat ears were twitching around as she sunk her body into Mark's chest, staying silent with tears trailing down her eyes.
Mark was enjoying the hug when…
A green haired elf hugged him from the back. Two big soft valleys cushioned him, and he knew who I was instantly.
"You idiot, why didn't you show yourself earlier!" Rohana said while half crying, she was bad at holding back her tears. And she pushed herself against Mark with all her might.
Mark, however, didn't listen to those words, in from of him was a cute beastman while at his back there was a beautiful elf hugging him. He knew that this massive luck wouldn't last long, because…
"O-N-II-CH-A-N..." A murderous intent seethed front the girl who wasn't able to hug him due to having two girls occupying her place. Mark was sure he would get killed before.
Hanna's face softened and she said with a sulking expression.
"I'll forgive you just for today." She unbelievably said out and leaned her body against the surprised Mark. Her warm body made Mark happy and he continued staying like that for a while.
The music played on and at last ended with a soft-low sound.
Part 4
"Um... So you are really Siris, right?”
"Yes, Jay, this is the thousandth time you asked me. I already confirmed it, right?”
Jayborino asked warily and at long last showed a relieved face. They were back in the dormitory, chilling out in their respective room.
"I can't believe you seduces three girls though…"
"Bufuuuu!!!!" Mark coughed out the snack he's eating. And quickly retorted back.
"I didn't seduce anyone! They just think of me as a brother, nothing more nothing less!" He was flabbergasted and thoroughly panicked. Jayborino showed an evil face, it was payback time.
"Really, they hugged you so passionately, the girls are kinda cute too, y’know?"
An image of the beautiful girls kissing him floated through Mark's head for a millisecond, before he ditched the notion immediately. His brain worked 1,000 times faster and quickly made a comeback.
"How about your day with Sakura then. You seem to be closer to her lately.”
"What the, don't change the subject! And she still thinks of me as a friend!”
"Oh hoh, really is she? She seems to be as red as an apple when you invited her to training though?”
"That...that-" Jayborino was furiously trying to think of an excuse, but failed to do so, luckily,
*Knock* *Knock*
"Come in~"
Chiron entered the room, she stared at Mark as if looking at a ghost. And at last she walked to him.
"How did you get here? When? And where did-“
"Woah, stop with that insane barrage of questions. I just came into this world. That's all.”
""You WHAT??”"
"Well it started when…"
Mark told the two his stories, leaving some parts out. The story continues on…
Meanwhile,
"""Rock, Paper, Scissors!!!!””"
The trio girls were playing a famous game Mark taught to them.
"Yesssss!!!! I win, and that means I'm making food for Onii-Chan!!!”
"Tch... You only win this time Hanna." Alice said out in defeat.
They were holding a party for Mark, and they were fighting over who gets to cook.
Hanna then went on with another important problem.
"Well, it can now be concluded that Onii-Chan is related to that hero that they summon the other day.”
"Yes, that idiot spread his influence farther than we expected." Rohana agreed to Hanna. She saw that a beautiful girl hero seemed to be trained by Mark. And perhaps knows him better than even Hanna.
"Maybe Mark came from the same world as those heroes? No wonder why he's so strong." Alice voices out her opinion.
"But we will never lose to her!" Hanna shouted with confidence looking at her own body. She will not give in! Her body's curve has already grown and now almost any man would look at her with greed.
"Seducing that dense idiot Is hard. B-but that doesn't mean I want to, okay!?" Rohana was red-faced and muttering something in secret.
Alice looked at Rohana and can clearly guess what she is thinking.
They continued debating for a while, before Hanna walked into the kitchen to continue her cooking.
She was going to make the best meal of today.
Part 5
Marco was furious at how Siris came back. Now he had another enemy to break apart.
Chiron and Sakura will be his, and he will use force if it is necessary to force them to submit. Those two girls have never feared him. And that was why he wanted to break them so much.
He walked on until he saw a lovely girl walking by. Her name was Silver, one of the class's most famous girl.
He thought of a way to be able with her alone in secret. He will bring his gang with him and rape her.
Part 6
Silver was a shy girl, she hated the new world she was brought into. Everyone wanted violence, but she wants to go back to her old country. This world was filled with madness. The people were all forcing the burden to destroy the enemies for them. It is very selfish according to her standards.
She hates the fact that all the boys are now uncontrolled and more selfish than ever. They thought that they are the strongest. And always tried to take all the attentions for themselves. Silver was weak compared to others, and can’t seem to protect herself. She was therefore very wary of the boys, especially Marco. That boy is surely evil, she was sure of it. He would always leer at the girls around him and does whatever he wants, just because he was the strongest hero summoned.
She walks up to her new friend, Jayborino. He was one of the only heroes who still hasn't changed, still kind and always ready to help anyone. Jayborino will always train everyday, even though his magic affinity was low and he was always called a ‘failure’. But Silver doesn’t think so, she feels that Jayborino will one day surpass all, including those with talents. And most importantly, she felt good talking with him.
"Oh, hi Silvie." Jay called Silver with her nickname. Silver's face burned bright red, and she was about to stagger, when Sakura came and supported her.
Sakura was eating with Jayborino, Chiron was off to train with 'Mark'. So he was left alone. Though secretly he thinks that it was intentional to leave him with Sakura alone though.
"U-um hi, u-uh can I sit with you?"
"Sure, why not?" Jayborino lent her the seat beside him. Sakura stared with a bit of envy in her eyes. But signed and thought that she would let go of it for once.
"It's really hard coming into this world, those demons are just so scary." Silver said quietly as she recalled the very first time she saw them. She killed it easily, but that memory still etched into her mind. She was scared of this world. But a boy’s word calmed her down.
“Well, y’know, you can ask Hoo- I mean Mark for suggestions, he told me how this world is, and he knows more than any of us about this world.”
“Jay, what do you know about this world?”
“Well, Mark said that there are many noble races around, always helping you if you want it, not everything around us is exactly bad. So you should try to look at the positive aspects of this world.” Jayborino explained to Silver in a friendly tone, making Silver’s face goes red and Sakura noticing it.
(A rival…)
She thought out quietly. They continue eating until the time was over.
Later, Silver was walking through the halls.
Silver walked down the hall at night, she was just finished eating with her crush, and was currently happily skipping down the dark hall. When…
"Hello there, would you mind coming with me?" A boy came forward and suspiciously asked the girl out.
"Marco! Why are you here?" Silver prepared her staff, she knew what Marco's personality was made of, and she knew she absolutely must not let her guard down.
"You better give up, your magic's far weaker than me. You will never be able to beat me in a thousand years. Just give up. No one, I repeat no one! Is opposing me!!!!!" Marco shouted out, he had gone crazy over his power, forgetting all morals he had learned
"Never!" Silver doesn't want to be raped here. She thought about the boy she likes, and she can no longer allow this man to do anything to her. Marco shot a huge fire ball at Silver. Silver summoned a basic barrier, but it got destroyed and Silver was blown away. Almost losing her consciousness.
She got blasted by a wave of water. Marco pushed her down. She can't move, and tears were coming down her eyes. She tried to push Marco away, but to no avail. She screamed to the top of her lungs, but no one came.
(HELPP!!)
Marco tore off her clothes. Silver tries to resist,but failed to. Marco was about to take off her skirt when.
A kick came flying at Marco's face. Yes, it was the boy who Silver held to be the most benevolent in the class, it was Jay himself.
Jayborino was walking down the hall, till he heard Silver’s scream. He rushed over and saw Marco about to rape her. He took off all his gravity rings and ran towards Marco with frighting speed. He kicked Marco in the face and Marco was blasted away and crashed to a wall.
“Are you okay, Silvie?” Jayborino asked Silver worriedly. He looks at her crying face, and it seemed to flip a certain switch in his brain. He glared at Marco, the boy who started all these problems. He looked at him as if he was just a lowly existence.
“How dare you, you weakling!!!!” Marco finished chanting his trump card, and released a black aura all over his body. It covered his body, and he rushed forward and punched Jayborino, but…
“Weak….” Jayborino said in a mocking tone. He looked at the worthless man before him. And grabbed the incoming fist. Then proceeded to smashing it down into the concrete floor. The shockwaves resounded throughout the whole hall. Some heroes who noticed came rushing to the scene. And saw Jayborino glaring down Marco, who was trying to fight back.
“Khh… Die you [email protected]#$ing weakling!” Marco lifted a huge boulder from the ground. Covered it with a terrible amount of magic, and swung it towards Jayborino. Jayborino, however, doesn’t care, and used his two hands to literally grab the boulder. The heroes and the teachers were surprised by the event, how could someone who almost has no magic at all, be so strong?
“You should die now, Marco.” Jayborino said out coldly, and swung the rock at Marco with no mercy. It crushed his body, and Marco should have died right away. There, all was left were stains of blood. Jayborino, however, knew that he isn’t dead, just escaped away somewhere. But can’t seem to sense him at all.
“What happened?” Mira came running towards the blood stain and stared unbelieving at Jay. But when Jayborino and Silver explained to her all that had transpired. She calmed down and looked at the stain with disgust.
“Such a student, couldn’t be called a hero, but is it true he was able to run away?”
“Yes, he instantly disappeared somehow, but I made sure to damage him enough for him to shut up for about 10 days.” Jayborino said out menacingly. He was angry at how crazy Marco had been. He was about to walk off, when…
“So, scared…” Silver said out in a childish voice, she was scared and frightened, and hugged Jayborino tightly. Jayborino slowly put his arms around her and led her to Sakura’s room. He thinks that they will be safer with her sleeping with Silver.
-On a certain garden-
“Wah! I’m not dead?” Marco uttered out, he looked out and saw a certain man there, yes his name is Mark.
“Well, so you have woken up, good, so I can now easily kill you while I see you suffer.” The boy previously known as Siris, walked up to him with a white plasma blade on his right hand
“Wait! don-“
Mark pierce the blade through Marco’s very heart. Killing him at that point. He retracted his blade back and looked up at the starry sky.
(I hope this is enough for Jayborino to not feel wrong about himself…) Mark walked off, leaving the burning body behind. Yes, the plasma blade literally tore out the atoms from Marco. And increase the temperature by 10 fold.
Mark does’t want Jayborino having a trauma for killing a human being. So he decided to do it privately instead. He used Hermes’s boots magic and took Marcoux first. But before that leaving enough evidence to prove he’s not dead.
(Whelp, enough happened for today…)
-Back in Jay’s room, an hour later-
“I should have expected that to happen. I shouldn’t have let it go. If only I have stopped him sooner…” Jayborino said out dejectedly, it was mostly his fault.
“I can’t believe I let that out of my sight…” Mark said out angrily, he was given the responsibility to control the heroes’ behaviour. But he failed right away. He felt dejected and sat in his bed. Thinking hard on what he should do about the situation next.
“Oh, Jayborino, you need to tend to Silver. She needs to get rid of her trauma if the was to survive in this universe. You must help her understand the good things in this world.”
“But…”
“Please, she is severely injured by the emotional pain today, so you should really help her out. The worst case would be she giving in to a temptation easily. And she can turn on all of us. The only person she currently trusts is you and Sakura.”
“Fine…”
Part 7
He was living in the abyss. Looking over the monsters he had created, monsters that rival even the demon lords. He had been fighting against Kataluzia for centuries, but always lost in the end.
But this time…
He had planned everything carefully. Before, he can’t summon all his monsters that he wanted, due to the certain limit. But now, he had figured the hero summoning’s system. And found loopholes throughout the system. So he used it to create gates.
The gates can be summoned only at specific places, but that is more than enough to send powerful monsters into Kataluzia’s world.
Bazulu slowly reached out his hands, then he found a certain monster. It has six eyes, 4 legs with claws on each of them. And high magic resistance. The red and blue scales covered its body, each harder than diamond.
Its teeth can cut through almost anything, Bazulu looked at the monster he created with pride, and continued to teach it high level techniques that will make it a perfect predators to heroes.
No one will stop him. He will use the demon king and all his resources to wipe out all the taint from the world.
Creating those races were a mistake. They were imperfect, they don’t do as he wants, unpredictable, and not excellent. He can’t allow that to exist.
He will wipe them out.
Bazulu looked over the world, and yet found another opening. He smiled with pleasure. The place that he was going to summon his monsters next.
Is at the border of Gaxul itself.
Part 8
Artaneeus stared at his peaceful city. The city that he was born into, and are now holding one of the strongest defences in the whole world. The beastmans were currently inhabiting the city grounds, while a group of mercenary from Karl’s faction was still in the city too. And everything is in place for an effective defense. But on that day, the peace broke down.
Artaneeus heard a deafening sound ring out all over the kingdom. He rushed to the conference room and listened to the reports.
"A 'gate'?" He shouted out in horror. It seems that it was still manifesting, but they had no way to stop it.
"Ready all defenses. Prepare the magical artillery. We shall protect Gaxul from its enemies!!!! Send a messenger to ask for help from every kingdom, NOW!!!!”
Artaneeus commanded the whole body of messengers. He send out orders to every single part of Gaxul. They have improved their defense over these past six years. The beastman's refugees and queen were currently staying in the country. The elves will ask them for help, where they will surely agree to.
"Sir, reports of a large demon army is approaching from the south of Gaxul, they seemed to intend to use the Gate to their advantage!" A scout reported the morbid news to him.
"Are we able to ready the yet?”
"Yes sir! It can be operational at any time. We should be able to stop the demon's advance for a while before the kingdoms send their help!”
"Good! We shall focus all fire power on the monster that will eventually emerge. Prepare our forces, and hire those Pandamned mercs."
Artaneeus then rushed to the great wall of Gaxul. And stared at the emerging rift, he picked his staff and casted a majestic magic circle from the ground. It will damage the monster when it emerges from the rift.
(If only he was here, we may have more hope...) Artaneeus thought of a certain human who sacrificed himself to give them the times needed to improve their defenses. He won't allow the demons and monsters to make his sacrifice be in vain.
Then, a certain shape started to take shape, it was a humongous monster coming out of the rift. It seems to put even the great tower of Xion to shame.
"ROARRRRRR!!!!!" The great legendary monster roared out, shaking the hearts of even the brave.
The battle of Gaxul shall start soon.
Part 9
"Onii-Chan, here's your food! Let's have a reunion party!" Hanna crashed into the room and brought out her food. It was fried pork covered by salts and other seasonings. Hanna had been training to surpass Rohana for years, so her skills had improve quite alot.
"Woah, thanks Hanna. Did you make this yourself?" Mark said out in surprise, he stared at the food brought before him. But his eyes were more attracted by Hanna's choice of fashion. She was eating a white dress which was supremely compatible with her blonde hair.
"Do you like my shirt, Onii-Chan?" Hanna asked out shyly. Mark realized how much she'd grown over the past six years. And quickly averted his eyes.
"Heh Heh." Hanna showed a triumphant expression and lifted her chest in pride. She had successfully got her brother's attention.
But when she was about to serve her food, an intruder appeared.
"U-um I made some lunch for you to celebrate- wait, what are you doing here?!" Chiron entered the room with a lunchbox which Sakura taught her how to make. Her eyes met with Hanna's. And they realized that the person in front of them is an enemy.
Mark, still annoyingly oblivious to the situation around him. Looked at the lunch box's content with longing. He hadn't tasted his old world's food for so long. And wished to try it once again.
"Well, let me try-“
"Onii-Chan!!!! Eat both and tell me which is better!" Hanna shouted out loud. She won't allow herself to be defeated here. She ran over and sat on Mark's side on his bed.
"Wait! Hanna you-“
“Aaaahhh..."
Mark was about to protest when Hanna lifted her spoon with food in it for Mark to eat. Mark saw no way out and give in at last. He gobbled up the food.
"Mmmm... Delicious!!! This is so good! How did you make this Hanna?" The pork was well mixed with the seasonings on it. It seems to melt in Mark's very mouth.
"I put the pork and sliced some of my secret seasonings into it. It's good right? Here, another spoon, Ahh..." Hanna said out shyly. She was excited and happy her Onii-Chan loved her food.
Mark was about to open his mouth when Chiron interrupted,
"Eat mine too!" She crashed in and picked up a piece of sushi and fed Mark. Mark accidentally opened his mouth and gobbled the food in.
"Ah... I miss these sushi so much." The boy ate it slowly. Enjoying the surfacing memories from his previous world.
Hanna stared at Chiron, noticing how careful the contents of Chiron's food were arranged. She knew that she had yet met another rival.
"You both are so good at making food though, I'm so envious..." Mark said out jealously. He continued enjoying the two dishes for a while, realizing how true the phrase 'a famous restaurant can't beat a girl's private cooking with all her heart into it’
"By the way, what happened to your hand Onii-Chan, it looks... strange." Hanna stared at Mark's mechanical hand. Filled with sophisticated parts, and colored black.
"Oh... The demon king cut my hand off. So I need a replacement for it." Mark answered casually, not realizing soon enough how impacting his words are.
Chiron and Hanna's faced paled. Hanna quickly came over and folded up Mark's sleeve up to his shoulder. And saw the horrible sight of the mechanical hand embed into his shoulder.
"Onii-Chan, why didn't you tell us..." Hanna started to sob, Mark tried to frantically calm her down. Chiron came closer to Mark and lightly slapped his face.
"Stop carrying the burden on yourself, you're always like this. Helping others and forgot about yourself. You need to learn to lean on others too!" Chiron was on the verge of crying. She can't believe the strong Siris had got his arm cut of. And the thought of Siris trying to carry all the burden by himself angered her to the fullest.
Hanna tried touching the mechanical arms, and was startled whenever it moves. Mark was comforting her while he was trying to push her of.
"Don't worry Hanna, I am still alive and that's all you need to care about... Don't cry, I won't be happy if you do." Hana was comforted by these words and slept right in Mark's lap.
(Sheesh, she's as old as me but haven't change one bit.) The boy thought out as he slowly caressed Hanna's head.
Chiron left a while later with Hanna, leaving Mark alone reading his books, thinking about Chiron's word about his burden. Is it really right and heroic to carry all the burden on himself?
He was left thinking deeply until noon. When the silence was broken by the entrance of Jayborino.
"Did you make a girl cry? I saw Hanna walked out with tearstains, what did you do again?”
"Nothing, what do you want?”
"An attack just hit Gaxul, we've been ordered to subjugate the invasion immediately.”
"Oh, beautiful." They walked out of the room into a large magic truck with the other heroes.
Part 10
BAMMMMM!!!!
The sound of the legendary monster's assault rattled through the walls.
"Prepare the and aim them at the demon army. We will temporarily freeze them while we deal with the legend!!!" Artaneeus screamed out the order to the top of his lungs. They were now using the forbidden weapon which freezes time for at most 3 hours.
"Aim...FIRE!!!!" Artaneeus shot the forbidden weapon at the heart of the demon swarm.
BAKII!!
The demon army instantly froze and stopped moving. The takes up to 20 days to charge up. And it can't be stacked or copied, it was truly a weapon of legends said to be built by the gods.
"Now, focus all arterially at the legend.(The name they call the monsters that emerged from the rift.) Use all available cannons with full magic power to eradicate it!" The elves used their magic powers and charged up the mega cannons lying around the city, and shot it towards the legend.
"Grrrr...!!!!" The monster faltered for a while, before moving on to destroy its enemy. Red light started gathering in its mouth.
"Look out!!!!!" A guard shouted and a huge ball of fire shot forward from the beast's jaws. It collided with the city's barrier and diminished.
"Such... Power." Artaneeus gaped at the mere brutal power of the fireball. It almost broke the high-class barrier to pieces.
"Sir, transmission says that the heroes are soon reaching here!" A scout reported the good news among the despairing situation.
Light returned to Artaneeus's eyes. He glared fiercely at the monster. He picked out his staff and began casting a high magic. It was a magic handed down through the elven conclave generations after generations.
"The lord Pan who gave us the nature and the trees, please stop this enemy from entering our holy city, !!!!!”
Huge trees suddenly burst out from the beast's very feet. Piercing it and covering it up. The monster wailed in pain, then it collapsed down to the ground. It tries wriggling itself through, only to fail and topple over again.
GRRRR!!!!!
Artaneeus knew he couldn't keep this up for long and he continued praying to Pan for a miracle.
The elves around him started to construct another barrier to ready their defenses. The huge beast was now still busy with the trees, but they knew that it couldn't keep up for long.
Then something unexpected happened, a purple creature started walking out of the forest. They came with a huge army, armed with uncouth weapons and other strange things all around. Artaneeus who saw them thought of a certain memory a couple of months ago…
-About a year ago-
"We ask of you to help us!!!" Artaneeus was bowing to a certain elf with purple skin. They were a race thought to be unholy. Evil. Yes…
They are the night elves.
"Who are you, elf? And what do you want coming into our territory?”
The queen of the night elves spoke to the elf whose ancestor had once discriminated and forced them away thousands of years ago.
"A demon army is approaching soon, and we need help to defend ourselves against it. I, the head of the conclave, wish to ask you for your strength.”
"And why should we lend you your help?”
"I have spoken to the elf city and conclave. We once thought you to be a wild, barbaric race. A disgrace to our species. But I have never seen it that way. And ask the conclave to give me support.”
"And what you got was?”
"I got criticized, they still hold on to old traditions that NEEDS to change. So I and my supporters came here today to ask you for your grace." Artaneeus bowed down before the queen. The queen was perplexed at the strange sight. The prideful leader of the elf conclave and council is bowing down to her?
(Perhaps the age of discrimination can be resolved...) The queen of the night elves thought out carefully. She watched the elf on front of her, then swept her eyes to his supporters.
She then told her answer
Part 12
The queen led the charge, and the night elves rushed forward towards the beast, brandishing their strange weapon. A group of magicians started chanting harmoniously, and it spreads throughout the army.
Each elf was at a certain position for a reason. And a huge magical sign appeared below the beast's feet. Artaneeus watched as the queen casted out her magic.
"The nature's dark side which destroys both good and evil, the weak or the strong, I give you our sacrifice, ”
The already weakened monster who was still struggling with the humongous trees in the center got purified, it literally vaporized into thin air.
Silence follows, and Artaneeus broke up with a cheer.
"Hail the night elves, our long lost comrade!!!!”
“Ooooh!!!!!"
The elves shouted out in joy. They forget all about their ok traditions. Those things doesn't matter. All that matters is that they got help from their comrade.
Then the 's barrier started breaking apart. The time limit was approaching, and the demon army shall return soon.
The elves stared at the cracking barrier in fright. But a voiced pulled them back to victory. The voice belongs to the queen of the night elves.
"Citizens of Gaxul, today is the day our discrimination shall be forgotten. And old traditions shall perish. Today, we are facing a threat that will put our spirits to test... And if we face destruction, then we shall face it…
TOGETHER!!!!!”
The warriors roared, and they raced out of the city and joined the night elves. Their difference were now forgotten. Only unity remains.
The barrier's crack continued to grow, but no fear was shown on the elves expression. They were ready to face even death to protect their brethren.
Part 13
Grodias and Chodan was leading the demon attack today. They expected the monster to finish obliterating the city while they were locked in time stasis. When they were released, they saw an unbelievable sight, the night elves had joined hands with the normal elves. And the beast had been obliterated!
(But that doesn't change the situation, we still have the advantage, moreover, we have an army of dragons approaching soon.)
Grodias was one of the demon lords. He had been given the order to destroy Gaxul. He was also assisted by another demon lord, Chodan. They shall destroy this city no matter what.
"ATTACK!!!!!" He ordered the assualt and the Orcs, corrupters and demons charged at Gaxul with all their might.
Meanwhile…
The queen of the beastmans glared at the demon army with disgust. She lost her city once, but a second time? Never.
She turned and faced her beastmans army. And declared out loudly,
"Fellow brethren, the demons came, and eradicated our cities turning it into nests for monsters, yes... we became,
REFUGEES.
But they haven't destroyed our Unity! For we are the beastmans, the proud race with the strongest warriors,
Today! We strike back... as ONE!!!!!”
"Yeah!!!!!!!!" The people of Brezia shouted out a war cry. They charged with their clubs and swords raised. The shocked Orcs were instantly killed and many demons felled by the clubs and rage of the citizens of Brezia.
Then Dragons flew over the sky and shot huge fire ball at the beast mans, when…
“Water barrage” A certain elf shouted out and casted her magic. It engulfed the fire ball and it got instantly diminished. It was Rohana.
A guard shouted out loud,
“The heroes are here!!!”
Part 14
Alice crashed down on her enemies with her earth fists. It demolished the demons in one go. She used brute force to absolutely destroy a dragon. The dragon was blasted away and crashed down to the ground.
Rohana casted a water magic. Blowing away the enemies before her. She also casted a high area spell that increases her allies’ mobilities and strength. Greatly benefiting the battlefield. The demons came rushing forward, but she summoned large trees to destroy the demons army. The trees crashed into the demons, making its bark red with blood.
But perhaps the most glorious of all, was Hanna. She summoned a humongous golem that smashed through her enemies with ease. It crushed the demon army and swung its fist down at the large orcs and monsters. The corrupters tried to get ahold of it, but it got killed by the mere momentum of the golem.
Hanna saw a certain demon closing in, realising that it was a demon lord. Grodias was weary of the human girl, he knew that this girl is strong beyond all measures of humans, and rushed forward to kill her.
He rushed in and tried to hit Hanna with his fire blast. but Hanna blocked it with a wall of metamorphic rock. Then retaliated with her tiny fist. It blasted the demon alway with ease. But Grodias wasn’t really damaged as much as he should be, for he summoned water to cushion him while he falls. The demon lord erased the distance between him and Hanna, then kicked her in the stomach, but Hanna blocked it with her fists, and they exchanged an almighty punch.
BAMMMM!!!!!
The ground below sunk down from the force of the punch colliding. It broke apart and killed others near it. The demon lord saw Hanna a little faltered by the punch, and tried to jabbed her, but hen he does, a hand caught his fist and swung him away.
“Ugu!!!” Grodias was swung away with such force, he can’t react quickly enough to it. He looked back and saw the man who swung him away. It was one of the heroes, yes… It was Jayborino.
Jayborino had taken off his rings and ran with insane speed towards the battle ahead. He spotted Hanna fighting, and intercepted in time. His body was now condensed with pure muscles, and he can kill the demons along the way with ease, now he faced the demon lord himself. He readied his stance and faced the demon lord.
“Gah haha!! You’re good hero. My blood is boiling for a fight with you, come at me with all your might!!!!!!” Grodias ran forward and landed a kick on Jayborino’s stomach, but realised a second too late that a punch was coming his way. He got blasted away with pure physical force. Making him falter and toppled over and over multiple times. Before hitting a large boulder created by Hanna. A humongous golem swung down a fist at him, but he blocked it with his two hands. And crushed the golem with his fists.
But Hanna wasn’t done, and casted a quagmire under the demon lord. Temporarily trapping him. But that is more than enough for her to make a large fireball magic shoot it towards Grodias. However, he dodged it barely and retreated back quickly, only to be met with a kick to his face. The bloody Jayborino had already recovered and found the right opportunity to interfere with the demon’s attack.
“Tch!” Grodias slowed himself down as he was being blown away, and created a huge sword. He rushed and sliced the mighty sword down at Jayborino, but Jay blocked it with his gloves that Mark privately gave to him.
Hanna came from the back with speed using wind magic to blow her towards the demon lord. Then smashed her strengthened fists against the Grodias. He got blasted away with tremendous force. Grodias judged the situation disadvantageous. Then he sense his fellow demon lord in danger, And retreated by casting a large water wave at his enemies.
“We shall meet again, hero…” He ran away and rode on the dragon. He also ordered all the demons to distract the human/hero combo while he escapes.
Part 15
Artaneeus watched triumphantly as the heroes came and destroyed the demons and dragons one by one. He was relieved they made it. The heroes used their massive magic power to cast their huge spells that demolished the dragons and orcs.
Karl’s mercenary fought with the corrupters with ease. While the bastmans and the elves destroyed the demons 1 by one. The battle was going according to his favour, and he liked the sound of it. He was about to join the battle before something unpredictable happened.
A demon lord crashed down near him. It was Chadon, the demon lord stared at him. Artaneeus stared at the demon lord. He quickly ran away, he wasn’t a reckless man who would risk his life at something killable. But Chadon doesn’t let him go, and sprinted after Artaneeus with ease. It swung a large sword out
Artaneeus was sure that he would die, but something blocked him from the blade. It was a white wall made of something unknown. And a certain hooded human walked out from the shadows. Artaneeus watched the human walk forward, it was the man who stopped the demon invasion, the human who was presumed dead. Yes…
It was Mark.
“Well, sorry I got you waiting, old man.” Mark said out loftily and melted the ice that was blocking the old elf. He walked forward and found Chadon standing there, looking at him in anger.
“You’re the human from last time. You will not stop us, we have been far stronger than we last met.”
“Oh please…”
Mark shot his railgun at the demon lord. He got blown away by the combustion of the contents of Mark’s bullet. He crashed against a wall, but recovered quickly.
Another demon lord crashed down from above, it was Grodias. He came closer instantly and tried to jabbed Mark. Mark, however, increased the air friction around him and used his fist to grab the incoming hand. Then he smashed the hydrogen electrons together. A small nuclear fusion was created and blew away both the human lords.
The demon lords rushed forward and tried to land a kick on Mark, but he dodged it and grabbed Grandias’s neck, and smashed it down to the floor. Chandon approached from the back, but Mark created tornado wings and slammed the demon lord away. Grodias tried to punch the boy who was holding him, but he already disappeared and was now high up above the two demon lords. The demon lord realised what is soon going to transpire, and quickly moved away.
Mark shot down like a meteor with his legs, destroying the wall below him with such force, the pieces spread out and collided with the Chadon. Grodias closed in and swung his fist on Mark’s face, but Mark blocked it with a big wall of iron sand. Then he used poseidon’s power to wash them away with the waves.
“Kuhh…. Damn HUMAN!!!!” Charon closed in, but Mark shot another railgun at him, blowing him away and smashed him against a big boulder nearby. Grodias came and caught Mark by surprise, blasting him away with fists. Mark coughed up blood, and he crashed into Gaxul’s wall.
He quickly healed himself and summoned Asura’s power. 6 golden arms spread out from his back. Each fist can crush a mountain with ease. It smashed into Grodias and Charon, blasting them away and they both toppled over multiple times.
“Give me the power that destroyed the city of Sodom, the power that exiled Satan into the oblivion. ” A huge majestic cross fall down from the sky, crushing the two demon lords. And leaving them immobilised.
They were breaking out when…
The iron sands turned into drills, Mark shot it forward into the demon’s stomach. Drilling the demon, but the demon used his magic to destroy the drills after a while.
(Aw… My romance) An unnecessary thought passed through Mark’s head. But he blocked another long-ranged attack from Chadon. Mark decided to end the demon’s life once and for all. He raised his 6 mechanical golden arms. And it slowly turned blue.
“The god of Melancholy and sadness! I summon your mighty strength ” The fists now harboured new powers and crashed down onto the two demon lords, 3 hand each. The ground under the two seemed to break apart. And the ground trembled in terror. A large crater which was 20 metres wide was created, and all that was left was Chadon’s flatten corpse. Although it seems Grodias escaped barely.
“Whew, that was tiring…” Mark collapsed down and took a rest. The battle around him was concluding soon. And Mark watched on till the end of the battle.
