10. Ben Vs Kramer

10. Ben Vs Kramer

The elven lands, most of the eastern continent, the continent where the peninsula of men is located, are the dream of conquest of Kramer, the Numan. A place in another dimension, but at the same time, to the east. Described as a compendium of clouds of extreme beauty, huge celestial spaces, and the movement of the breeze, which can be seen, along with the golden and soft rays of sunshine, divine in nature.

Elves have a physical beauty superior to that of men, great height, slender bodies, long straight golden hair, and eyes as blue as glacial water. They never spoke directly to men, so far as is known. They were always around long before men appeared. Kramer is the first of the new humans, by way of betrayal, the new humanity seeks to monopolize the entire world, selfishly and ungratefully.

The Numan, the race of the future, the race that would conquer the entire world, where the enigmatic Kramer would be the first, is a threat to the future. Their seed is now in the womb of some of the survivors of the massacre of the black castle. Now, after the dimensional portal to the elven lands has been destroyed, Kramer's backup plan is to use the secret portal to Oldania Castle.

Ben, now must search for the newborn twins stolen by Kramer in his escape, everything indicates that he fled to Oldania in order to use the dimensional portal of the castle.

Ben travels north to Oldania to confront Kramer, rescue the babies and eliminate the Numan threat once and for all. Ben manages to enter Oldan territory without problems, taking advantage of the speed of events, and avoiding a Lebrassian military order to prevent him from entering the northern kingdom.

Oldania, the last great kingdom, in the north of the peninsula of men, peninsula located at the eastern end of the continent of light, peninsula separated from the elven lands by a large and endless system of snowy mountains. The elven lands are only accessible through magical portals. A place frozen in time. Stone and marble everywhere, and gigantic gardens. And there it was in front... The huge castle of Oldania, with the lion as a symbol, lions in marble everywhere were visible, just like the symbol of the sun. The Oldans still worshipped the sun.

Impeccable full body armor, shining like a mirror, wore the Oldan guards, with huge spears and solar banners. The treaty of the times forbids an Oldan retaliation against a Lebrassian, unless it is a full-scale armed attack against Oldania. Therefore, Ben is able to reach and sneak into the central hall of the Oldan castle, leaving his motor-tank outside. Armed with his pyro-sword, he goes in search of Kramer.

The imposingly armored Oldan guards are helpless in Ben's presence, one of the advantages of being a Lebrassian. Ben notices a unique huddle of guards in the lower-central part of the castle, which gives him a hunch about Kramer's possible location.

Then, as he turned, he saw something impressive, a gigantic marble staircase, with a divine finish, of impossible dimensions, as if it were for giants. It descended, and made a turn. Guards on either side watched Ben descend, helpless, for if they dared to attack a Lebrassian soldier, the pact of the ages would be broken, and Lebrassia could destroy Oldania militarily with all its might.

Ben descends into the huge, brightly lit lower chamber, even larger than the upper one, and runs to a large door where he deduces that Kramer is. The large doorway bears the lion's mark. A menacing marble lion looked down from the top of the large door.

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

The guards on either side, as Ben approaches, close in on him by crossing their spears, without saying a word. Ben warns them that he will defeat them if they stand in his way. Ben impatiently draws his pyro-sword and with a single fire attack eliminates both guards without them reacting, opening the heavy door wide open. The bodies of the defeated guards lie on the floor, metal fused to their flesh.

As they pass into the room, Ben observes the queen of Oldania placing a helmet on Kramer, who is wearing a strange and robust metallic dark green armor, with a pair of huge semi-translucent red spheres on her shoulders, one on each shoulder. The queen, crowned, and with beautiful wavy brown hair very abundant and long, up to her thighs, and blue-green eyes, is surprised by the noisy arrival of Ben, as well as Kramer.

The great Lion's gate in the background, ten men high, in the background. With an eerie swirl of blue-gray clouds, and golden rays of light, and mist drifting down all over the marble floor.

The queen, visibly frightened and angry, runs for cover. Kramer, now wearing a helmet in the shape of an angelic face, dark blue-green metallic to match the rest of the armor, stares at Ben, looking for the words to speak to him, visibly surprised, for the first time, Kramer doubts his own power.

The final battle had begun. Kramer, with the warmth of the Lion's Gate behind him, Armored with heavy armor and a long red cloak underneath and a dark green cape on his back.

Kramer turns to Ben:

"-First of all, my friend Ben, you must know that I will cross this portal, no matter what you do.

(Kramer points to his shoulders) Here and here are your friend's (Vanessa) daughters, whatever touch you do to me, they will feel it. If you touch me hard, they will feel it. Now, the queen is blessed with my seed too, and she will be mother of gods. Wow Ben, you are really unhinged, you ended up with all those girls Ben, it was a very cruel thing for you to do and it will be a challenge to our friendship."

"- Shut the fuck up I'm going to kill you!" -Ben exclaims.

Ben raises his sword, to analyze a way to defeat Kramer. He remembers that any damage he does will be redirected to the babies. Ben is baffled by Kramer's brutality and cruelty, using babies as human shields, literally.

Then, Kramer draws what looks like a handgun, a strange rocket-shaped gun, which had what looked like a miniature blood tear on it. He aims it at Ben from a distance, and fires a wide red laser beam that hits Ben and weakens his magic shield. Ben, on the ground, begins to vomit blood.

"And behold the reaction (Ben), to the action (Kramer), they say you are the reaction to the inevitable, that is, me"- Kramer exclaims, and fires the laser weapon again at Ben, throwing him away and leaving him badly wounded.

Kramer continues to point at Ben, as Ben's eyes begin to close.

Then, everything becomes dark...

He begins to have a vision. Clouds cover the sun, the sun rises again, and clouds cover it again. Then, he hears a voice...

"Ben... Ben..."

Then another voice, also from a little girl....

"Ben..."

"Who are they?" -Ben asks.

"-We are the spirit of original humanity, which refuses to die."

"-It was not you who reacted against the action, it is us, hidden in the hill of hares, in our mother's womb". We are sorry to have put you in this situation.

"-The goal of our existence is to end the threat of action (Kramer) by giving you the opportunity to defeat him, right now."

- "No, I won't, I'm going to kill him, if I attack him you die!" -Responds Ben.

- "Never mind, do it, a great cataclysm will occur if you don't stop it, ...it's okay."

Ben stands up in tears. And wields his pyro-sword. Kramer, without saying a word, knows something is wrong, takes a step back as he watches Ben stand on guard.

Ben launches himself into the attack and runs quickly towards Kramer, raises his furious sword in fire and pierces Kramer's metal mask and skull. The latter falls backwards, and as he falls, the babies implode inside the spheres on his shoulders, one first and immediately the other.

Kramer lies dead on his back in a pool of blood.

Ben is badly injured and cannot move well. He is left watching the swirling clouds of the great portal move, the light of dawn emanating. The light shines on his body, like a comforting embrace of victory, yet his breath is about to fade.

The most tender and vulnerable beings turned out to be Kramer's nemesis, he never suspected it. Swirling clouds and light, between cold and cool, the scent of rain, the divinity worshipped by man, the transcendent, the gateway to what the enemy of men so longed for, was there in front of Ben. Perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps because he felt that something was calling him, Ben crept towards Leon's portal, without looking away, that divine light reflected in his blue eyes. Until there he remained prostrate, with one hand towards that passage between worlds, as if wanting to touch it, Ben lost consciousness and remained prostrate, just like Kramer. The original humanity defeated its great enemy, the first of the new humans.
