《The Land Of Adventurers》Chapter 41
Advertisement
Helping me up I saw that the crowd bursted in a joyous scream and coins rain down on us. The nobles was cheering in joy up and holding the edge as they saw me got up and could see one of them toss a gold around to them from the nobles who laughed on their seat.
“Don't ever do that again!”
Cried Wendy as I got myself up and saw John screaming in glory, Grayson using his cap to gather coins and Billy lifting his war hammer.
“Help them up.”
I tried to order them as I helped the guy who got me down.
“You did well!”
I shouted inside his helm as the cheer around drowned our voices.
“I-I told them you're not invincible! I-I... I got you! I got you, right.”
He shouted back inside my helm.
“That's right! Don't give up!”
Tapping his helmet I began to congratulate every kid who I fought, and I got more than what I want: “Good luck!”
They said as we parted ways and return to our benches.
“You're Crazy! Ahaha!”
Bursted John as he patted my back.
“Warren! Warren! Warrreeenn!”
“Haha! Bread and Juice is on me lads!”
Said Grayson showing his bulk of coppex on his helmet.
“See! What I tell you guys. We all win. The bulls had a good fight and we get to advanced to the next round!”
I said as I removed my helmet and began to see the damage.
“Well, not for me.”
Grumbled Wendy as she helped me remove my plates and gambeson. Soon enough Kath came to congratulate us and offered to help.
“No, no, I'm just checking, can you go to the bulls and check their injuries.”
I've suffered worse on my first day of training with May and my first spar against Katherine.

“Grant and Kenneth and some nuns are the ones tending them. Plus this is mandatory.”
With that, we removed my chain mail and gambeson, and as I expected, a lot of light to normal bruises on my chest, arms, and legs. Even when I thought I didn't get hit on my legs, the adrenaline probably numbed those hit. Overall I hope it encourages the other contenders to fight on, in other words I'm ok.
“Agreed. It's ok.”
Said Katherine.
“What do you mean "it's ok"? Those bruises looks serious to me!”
Wendy was the most vocal among us.
“Aye, be careful next time.”
“Don't over do it, I told you to don't over do it.”
“Want us to call the nuns around?”
All of them expressed their concerns but,
“Believe me, he has it worst on captain May's training in the pell. He'll be alright for another round. Yeah?”
With an unnecessary punch on my shoulder, I promise not to this sort anymore and began to watch to see if I had any impact on the contenders.
Semi finals match 2; “Bull whip on my right and... Team Darkness... On my left.”
The announcer scratched his head and shrugged his shoulder when he said that.
“Bah! How come the bull gets a lot of members in the tournament while only us as rabbit warren representatives?”
Snorted John at Grayson.
“We did have another warren representative, I think Ryan and his 3 brothers called themselves The four rabbits, but they lost in the first round as I heard.”
He replied.
“To whom?”
I asked. Then he pointed out to the team that widen my eyes. I thought it would be Neil, Allan or Roland, but instead it was bunch of teens like me with Violet hair, Red flame hair, Green tea hair, Bright Brown hair, and Gray hair contenders with eyes colorful that matches their hair. They wore no armour and just wore black slacks, black shoes, black tuxedoes with black gloves. What's more they all held two handed wooden swords with one hand... Looks like this is my first encounter with some of my own kind.

It was the team that had a halberd V formation charge against a loose formation of the The great rainbows...
“You saw Tom beat Elfien! We can win this for our clan!”
“Moo!”
After that small speech and moo they changed formation and formed into phalanx like formation.
Thus the fight started, the bulls where quickly surrounded; two on their left and two on their right while one was in front.
The one in front then feints some attack which confused the kids and weaken their tight formation as simultaneously the flankers tripped and attack the flanks. Even if they were to change formation it was already over.
Although I hear some small pockets of clap and cheers, boos and saying: Fight fairly! No magic! Where the dominant theme of the crowds mood. Meanwhile I caught a noble giving another noble a gold coin but he refused it as their faces were painted in disappointment. Yet, the rainbow heads, that's what I am calling them, seemed to just patted one another as they returned to their bench.
“Adventurers!?”
The four exclaimed as we were to face them.
“How is that fair?”
“Since when did adventurers get entry?”
“It's the Pact of Peace.”
Said Wendy. She then explained that this was an agreement of Advenlorn and [Insert Kingdom name] that allows adventurers and some trade to enter the domain as the ceasefire turns into a nonaggression pact.
“I don't really know the full details, but adventures are allowed in the kingdom of Æden to honor the nonaggression and trade pact with Advenlorn. ”
“We have to win this!”
All eyes on me and I agreed no more holding back.
“So were going back to our old formation?”
They all looked at me with anxiousness.
“No, that's too tight and we'll be swarmed immediately with against those kind of opponent.”
If this was a one on one fight then I can probably stand against one of them since the rainbow heads clearly see's every weapon as one handed weapon, but against five...
“We can use a bow, right?”
Indeed we can, we have only a few minutes to concoct a plan to defeat unbeatable team.
John and Wendy stood up but I need to see how good they are and after some testing. I made plan and hoped for the best that this plan will work.

System Change
Years ago, Earth was indoctrinated into the "System." Earth was not the only place with the System, however. With the System came the other races, Invaders. The Invaders had one goal, to obtain ownership of this new habitable planet. This created a bloodbath, and for years the war raged. This didn't really have much to do with Derek. Derek was kind of a loner. Yeah, he enjoyed the occasional chat or drink with others, but he never stayed in one place too long or really got to know anybody new. Derek did happen to be rather strong. After the years of fighting monster and Invaders alone, he had become quite adept at surviving. One thing that helped keep him alive was his refusal to get involved with others. He rarely cooperated with teams. One day, Derek broke his rules and decided to lend some help, as the mission didn't seem too hard. He should have stuck to being alone. Hey everyone, this is my fiction, "System Change." It's the first time I've really tried to write a serial. All feedback is really appreciated. I plan to release chapters every Tuesday and Thursday. With occasional extra chapters being released. I will try to maintain a word count between 1500-2500 words per chapter. Thank you! I just made a Discord if anyone wants to join.
