"The time has come my dear friends. The time to reach our full potential has come. The old wizards thought they could keep the scrolls from us but they were wrong. We now have what truly belongs to us. We have wished for power for so long but today my friends, everything changes. " Job raised his voice just so everyone could hear him.
Another round of cheers followed after what Job said and back to quite again as the rogues watched on and the beasts at the alter sniffed on the unconscious Delilah.
Jack's blood boiled looking at those beasts.
A rogue walked up to Job and presented him four scrolls as he bowed for him.
Job picked up the scroll and looked to his right ; "Seize them!" he said.
Two burly rogues showed up behind master Soimacho and his students who were on looking at the events taking place.
"Bring them to me." commanded Job them placed the scrolls on the ritual table.
They were brought to Job and made to kneel in front of him. The beasts growled seeing the three humans they weren't familiar with.
"Hahaha. You are welcome old man. I've been expecting you." laughed Job looking down at master Soimacho.
"
" This was a trap!"exclaimed Trevor.
" Yes kid, this was a trap. And you walked right into it. Hahaha. "
" Well what do you want Job. "said a frustrated master Soimacho.
" No no. Isn't it obvious. I want the scrolls you got. Thanks for bringing them to me. Now I can fully complete the ultimate scroll. With all the scrolls combined I'll be the strongest person in the world. " he signaled to rogues to check them and they retrieves three scroll a from them," But first I need him to join them. "he said pointing at Jack.
" And how the hell am I supposed to do that dunderhead. And if I could, why the hell would I do it for you. " Jack spat in disgust.
" Hahahah. If you don't, I will kill him" he said pointing at Master Soimacho, "And her. And everyone you every cared about." them pointed at Delilah.
"No!"Jack felt fear ran down his spine. He was really close to master Soimacho and Trevor.
As for Delilah the two just kissed yesterday night could this get any worse.
Job gestured his figures and immediately three rogues were now behind master Soimacho, Trevor and Delilah who had just woken up, holding their swords at their necks.
"No no. You can't do this."
"You wanna try me kid." smirked Job.
"Okay okay. I'll do what you want. But what makes you think I can do this."
"The day you two killed that wolf. I was present watching from above you. That wolf wasn't an ordinary one kid. That was a dinary evil wolf. It is basically a wolf harboring a spirit. There one in a million.
And when I released it from the vine it was trapped on, it immediately attacked you first. Clearly you posed a bigger threat to it than your friend.
I cast a blind eye to it and came to you dojo when I found something intriguing as I studied ancient spells on how to join things and make them ultimate. "he paused," It was something about a scrowler. I read it on a certain scroll. It stated that the scrowler could join the 7 sacred scrolls and make them an ultimate. And that he was the only one that could destroy the scrolls. It also stated he bore the mark of a trident on his neck. The one who absorbs the ultimate scroll would harbor the magic that doesn't drain. And that bit was really a pleasing to me.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
That's why I sent my rogues after you from my dojo to check if you had the mark. I was surprised you did that's why I had to plan everything a head of time.
I had to give you one of the scrolls and send the rogues to play thief do you would absorb it. And placed a spell on the silver scroll so that you could face the sword dijins early because the ultimate proof was that you'd be the only one that can defeat a sword Dijin. And when you did I had to put the next step into action. I kidnapped your beloved Delilah. I saw you meet up secretly at the Saktan town and the two of you kissed last night am I right. " Job threw a smirk at Delilah.
" I have been trying to join them myself this whole time using some ancient spells and human sacrifice and that's when I discovered the scroll about scrowler. "
" Alright alright. How do I join them. "
" Glad you asked. Cut your palm and touch it then envision them come together into one"
Jack moved up to the alter and did as Job said. But instead of envisioning joining them, he envisioned burning them.
When Job noticed a smoke forming, he immediately knew something was wrong and pushed Jack off the ritual table.
"Hey kid I warned you didn't I..."Job said angrily," Kill him! "
And the next moment Master Soimacho's head rolled on the ground.
" Nooooo! "yelled Trevor and Jack as tears made their way to their eyes.
Blood gushed out of Master Soomacho's headless body.
The beasts at the alter immediately went to the dead body and started munching on it.
Job looked at his beasts have a fist of a life time with pleasure.
Before he knew it, two rogues fell to the ground and the beasts were burning alive.
Trevor and Jack's blood boiled at the inhumanity Job just showed.
"Attack!" Job yelled.
And very next moment rogues pounced on them one by one.
The first rogue was greeted with a fireball and the other with hole through his chest.
Victor and Trevor reached out behind their heads, grabbed a handle and pulled out swords from their sheath strapped on their back.
They immediately activated the weapon encasing and launched their attack on the rogues mindlessly swarming at them like they didn't care about their lives.
When the swords sore through the air, they formed a spectacular light show as the flames dragged behind them.
A single slash of their swords was enough to take three live.
They were overwhelmed for they had fought for so long but the rogues didn't stop coming.
They were soon surrounded by thousands of rogues and barely had any space to escape. Their magic was draining fast.
"Hey bro create a space for me." Jack said panting heavily.
Trevor understood what he meant and blasted a me-ha wave in the direction of the ritual alter.
Rogues where sent flying as the wave hit them and a pathway was formed for Jack.
