Pedro’s POV
Cron:”Think of a beautiful angel, the most beautiful creature you could imagine then say, Breath of Silv.”
Pedro thought of his mother, he never saw someone as beautiful as her. She was the best mother in the whole world. A teary eyed Pedro then spoke.
Pedro:”Breath of Life”
Pedro felt all his energy being sucked out on a white haze that was forming above Rez Naguv. The white haze then formed a silhouette of an angel. The angel then blow a whitish wind towards the body of the diseased. The body shook for a bit then the angel’s silhouette collapse towards the body of Rez.
“Mmmhh”
Rez Naguv groaned. It sounded more like a below. Then, he slowly opened his eyes. Pedro slowly approached Rez Naguv. He was exhausted as he revived the one he killed. The thought that he was a killer made him shiver so he quickly asked Cron if there is a way to revive someone.
Ped then sat beside Rez and observed him. He gave off a sigh of relief as he saw the Ruler of the Forest of Loah alive.
Ped:”Done, are you awake now?”
Rez:”W-W-what d..did yo…u do? I w..as s..ure I am alread…y de..ad”
Ped:”I revived you. Honestly, I can’t stand killing anyone or anything, specially those with intelligence. My only aim here is to know why I am here and if there is any chance I could get back home.”
Rez asked Ped even though he hasn’t have any energy left to move. He never had been this exhausted in his life. The answer he got from Ped was confusing him even more.
Ped bantered about his existence on this world. He was thinking of how to go back to his world before. But as he last remembered, there was a huge tragedy that led him here. He thought that this should be the afterlife. So there is no way that he could go back to that world. He gave up the thought of going back and think of this world’s norms.
Ped:”You look tired, you should rest a bit. There are a lot of things I would ask you later.”
Rez:”Mmmmh”
Cron:”You should rest up too, remember? I told you that when you revive someone, it takes a toll on your body and power, so it should be only use at most once a week.”
Ped:”Once a week, huh? I got some questions for you,too.”
Cron:”I know, but you best take a rest now. I will answer them all after that.”
The eyes of the Rez Naguv shut down and he was in deep slumber. Ped also laid down beside him and closed his eyes to take a rest. His exhaustion quickly caused him to fall asleep fast.

Tom’s POV
I saw Ped pondering over something after he ended the life Rez Naguv. I thought that it was gonna be the end but something unheard of happen. The rarest magic that could only be used by Gods, the resurrection spell. But, this is the first time I have heard someone of the human kind use it.
What’s even more surprising is that it is used on the enemy the caster once have. Is he some kind of a sadist?
I thought of this in my head but then i think otherwise. I walked slowly towards Ped with his summoned creatures at his sides. It confirmed my doubt when I overheard their conversation.
Ped:”Done, are you awake now?”
Rez:”W-W-what d..did yo…u do? I w..as s..ure I am alread…y de..ad”
Ped:”I revived you. Honestly, I can’t stand killing anyone or anything, specially those with intelligence. My only aim here is to know why I am here and if there is any chance I could get back home.”
Ped:”You look tired, you should rest a bit. There are a lot of things I would ask you later.”
Rez:”Mmmmh”
This conversation struck me. He really came from another world. He might be also finding some information regarding this world that’s why he revived Rez. And also, he is looking for a way back, back to his own home world.
The two powerful beings are now resting. The newly revived one is in deep sleep while the other seemed exhausted. The servants he summoned guarded them of any other harm that might come. The Tikbalangs they fought also fled because of the same reason.
Might as well catch a nap after a mind blowing day.
I decided to sleep under a tree not far from the two. There I sat and thought of what would happen in the future. Will Ped protect the town? or moreso, the whole humanity from the threats of other beings? My consciousness faded as I drifted to sleep

Rez Naguv’s POV
I opened my eyes slowly as I woke up from the longest sleep I had. It seemed more like a slumber rather than just sleeping. As I watched where I lay, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling. The bed was soft and the area seemed cozy
???:”Done, are you awake now?”
These words that I heard caused a flashback onto me. The battle of my life, the time I died and then was resurrected. I looked at the source of the voice and it was the same familiar man who revived him. He was holding a bowl that smells good.
Rez:”Y-yes, where am I?”
Ped:”Oh, you are at the tent of my trainer.”

Tom:”Trainer? Really? HAHAHA! After that show of power you still call me that? That’s kinda embarrassing. But really, where did that po-”
They halted talking as I remembered that he resurrected me. I quickly got on my knees and bowed so low that my head touches the ground. This person is stronger than anyone. He can help me protect the forest.
Rez:”My Lord, please accept my allegiance to you! I would gladly accept any order you command. This life of mine is of reverence of your existence.”
Ped:”W-What a-are you doing?”
Tom:”He is pledging his loyalty to you, as servant. Much like the ones you summoned awhile back.”
Ped:”W-why?”
Rez:”I have experienced your greatness in all aspects of combat, may it be strength, power, intelligence and agility. I seek only for the protection of the forest that I ruled so that we can live peacefully.”
Ped:”W-what do you mean?”
Rez:”Long before I ruled the forest, all existence where in peace and harmony. Until the Blight of the Land happened. Creatures unknown to us began to appear on what seem to be a green circle standing upright. They are called Ungo, the scoured the land and fest on the living. They destroyed everything in there path. That is what my ancestor told me. And now, the Ungo from the East of Madrigal had spread towards the Forest of Loah, if I don’t seek help from you, we, including the people of the town of Rafline, and all living beings in Raflis, will perish.”
Tom:”If that is true, then, why did you attack the town?”
Rez:”I merely ruled the forest, but I don’t control the creatures. They are only afraid of my power that is why they obey me. But some of them, like the Ramos and Tikbalangs, can be quite troublesome because they go on a rampage. You’ve seen them flee as I clashed against my Lord, right? They were afraid of me. I came because my subordinates are getting slaughtered while I saw a strong pillar of fire that no mere human can cast. That leads to our conversation now.”
Ped:”But why me?”
Tom:”Because you are the strongest being he had ever seen, actually, the strongest being any of us had ever seen. With that said, I’m convinced of your reason because the scouts came by this morning reporting that the scent of the dead is coming from the east and has infected the forest.”
Rez:”IT STARTED? MY LORD PLEASE, ACCEPT MY LOYALTY AND HELP ME DEFEND THE FOREST.”
I bowed once again begging for the holy sacred being in front of me. He has the compassion to revive someone who he had no attachment with and moreso, to and enemy he just recently fought. That is why I pledge my allegiance to this being, I would be more than honored to serve under his rule.
Tom:”With that said, I, the successor of the town of Rafline, pledge my allegiance to Lord Ped, and serve under his reign.”
Ped:”W-what’s this all of a sudden? Aren’t you my trainer?”
Tom:”The situation different now, even the adventurer’s guild are seeking for your presence. That proves that you are the most powerful man in the region of Raflis. Please, my Lord, accept our loyalty.”

Pedro's POV
A forest troll that rules the forest and a human that will rule the town is now pledging their lives under the command of Pedro. Pedro was confused, nervous and was about to throw-up with all the build up tension
Ped:”How did come to this?”
Cron:”Want me to help out? Here’s a suggestion, accept their loyalty.”
Ped:”Easy for you to say, I don’t even know what they meant by pledging their allegiance on me.”
Cron:”From your world, you watch the movies on medieval times right? It’s like you are the king and they are the knights. Only, a step higher in fact. But still the same concept though. Hehehe”
Ped:”What should I say or do?”
Cron:”Accept their loyalty, of course. First, put your hand on top of your insignia. After it, say the words, “I accept your loyalty, I vow to protect you as you to me, now rise and prosper. From this day forward, you are my loyal knights!”. Then hover your hand on top of their heads. That should do the trick.”
Ped:”R-really? Well, here it goes.”
I put my hand on the insignia and looked at both of them. The insignia on my shoulder glowed and there was a white haze-like orb on my hand.
Ped:”I accept your loyalty, I vow to protect you as you to me, now rise and prosper. From this day forward, you are my loyal knights!”
I hovered my hand which has the whitish orb over their heads. The white haze became a small bird which entered the foreheads of the two. Then, a glowing insignia the same as the one on my shoulder was on their chest, only, it was smaller.
Cron:”With that, you have successfully acquired new subordinates. Well, it’s about time I show myself up.
A white light covered the whole room. This light was the same as the light on the adventurer’s guild’s orb. The light then gathered and formed into a silhouette of a person. Then it slowly formed into an animate being of light.
Does this mean-
Cron:”Hello Ped”
