《Ancient Adventurer Return》Monster Zone
Advertisement
{ Katarea's P.O.V }
After I exited the hotel, I searched for a place that would sell me some good weapon. I alredy didn't wanted one, so atleast it had to be a good one. I didn't know what type of weapon would fit me, but given that I'm a Djinn it would make sense to choose a weapon that required great strengh.
When I entered the store I was quite shocked at how luxurious it was. A hunter passing by had told me that this was one of the best weapon story in the city, but I didn't think it would be like that. Anyway I quickly found my weapon, a cheap but tough looking warhammer made out of mana iron, which was just iron reinforced by mana.
After I bought it, I asked the owner if he knew where I could find a monster zone. He told me that there was a monster zone filled with goblins in an abandoned parking lot. Without wasting anytime, I then headed towards said monster zone and arrived in a few minutes.
It would be my first time in a monster zone so I was quite anxious. Djinns had the tendency to surestimate everything, so I naturally prepared myself like I was gonna fight monsters who were stronger than the Boss I fought in the dungeon. I was just happy that there wasn't anyone in the monster zone, which meant I could focus on the fight and worry about the loots later.
According to what little information I had on monster zones, good loot was really rare and could only be obtained from the anomalies, creatures who were much stronger than the others in the monster zone. So I was on the lookout for any creature who would be stronger than the goblins. Those little green monsters only dropped crafting materials which wasn't useful to my master. I needed to get some high tier items for him, and maybe intermediate tier equipement for me. A good tier 4 armor would be much appreciated, I was pratically naked with my current armor.

Walking inside the monster zones I kept my senses sharp, I wasn't gonna get surprised by those green filths. And sure enough, I saw a group of Gobelins...Or maybe an army actually. There were alteast 50 goblins who were surrounding a goblin who wore a long blue cloak. So a group of goblins led by a goblin mage. The goblins would be easy to kill but the mage was gonna be a headache. As a Djinn I didn't have a protection against magic, even basic spells. I should've asked master to give me a necklace.
*Vrrrr*
Hearing my bracelet vibrate I glanced at it and saw that it was telling me that goblins were nearby. This was really a useful thing. But back to those goblins, the mage was still a problem.
Well I could still take him out. If I could kill him with a surprise attack it would be nice. So walking in the darkness, I slowly approached them. They were dancing for some reasons, and the mage was chanting something.....A spell !
* Boom *
A huge fireball exploded in front of him. I was then sent flying on a few meters before I crashed into a wall. Getting up as I groaned, I snarled while my vision was filled with red. And here it was, the skill that all djinns had.....Berserker's Mind.
For the next ten minutes I had no idea of what I was doing. I couldn't control my body, but I was slaughtering them. The mage kept firing small fireballs at me while I swung my ace randomly cleaving some goblins in half while the others were lucky enough to land a few hits on me with their primitive daggers.
When my vision returned to normal and I got the control of my own body back I was drenched in blood. I had a few hits on my forearms and legs, but I was fine overall. The Mage had only burned my a little bit of my back, but it wasn't anything problematic.

As I looked around for anything interesting that the Goblins could've left behind, I heard a growl coming from the shadows. I turned around and gripped my axe tightly, this was clearly an anomaly. An anomaly could be literally anything, so I stayed focused.
Hearing some noises on my right I quickly dodged as a huge claw grazed me. I jumped to dodge another claw and used my axe mid-air to block a kick from a clawed feet.
Well this feet looked quite human, that wasn't a good sign, especially since I could clearly hear the growl of a beast that sounded like an animal I knew.
A loud roar made me froze, but I recovered and ran towards the only corner of the room where light shone on the ground. I then looked around, trying to spot the beast, but it seemed that it wanted to stay in the shadows. I allowed myself to breath a sigh of relief as I dropped on the ground.
I really had bad luck contrarily to my master, and it showed now. Though I was still a tier 5 Djinn, I wasn't going down so easily. Bracing myself I got up and tightened my grip on my axe.
* Vrrrr*
Hearing my bracelet vibrate I looked down and my heart sank. Bad luck indeed. I should've brought a bigger weapon, or maybe I really should've asked for the necklace.

Genesis

Taryn is determined to change that.Her plan is a simple one: win the King to her cause and the faiths of the masses will compel them to follow.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully.

Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head.
