"PULL," shouted Soren as he used his new spell [Zakir]. Skadi threw a small boulder through the air as Soren took aim and threw what looked like a white hot bolt of lightning into the boulder, which then caused the boulder to shatter. Soren had created a new spell for himself out of his anger. The power was nothing to scoff at, he was able to make the intensity of the lightning skyrocket by forcing the bolt out of two fingers condensing the energy to increase the power, this caused the boulder to explode on impact. He was now using the spell and the boulders the same way a rifleman would use clay disks in clay pigeon shooting to vent off his anger.
Soren talking out loud to nobody, "Who the hell does that bastard think he is, pretending to be so damn important. I'll show him! I'll force him to throw the others in front of him to protect himself that rat bastard." Soren's rant and stream of curses came out for another ten minutes.
"I realize you're upset and have every right to be, but revenge is definitely best served cold. Make sure you do this right," Skadi consoled.
"That is quite wise... sigh, thank you."
"Even though I am a mountain woman, I am not a cave woman."
"I know I didn't mean it like that, besides you know I am only 14."
"That's true enough. Do you have a plan?"
Soren smiled and conversed with Skadi for the next half hour. She didnt interrupt, asked pertinent questions here and there, and nodded in understanding at the completion of his outline.
"I think this will work out fine," she concluded
The two of them navigated through the town to the general store to purchase some stationary and a pen. Soren wrote his note and then went to the wolf's house to have him deliver the note to James. "If you could deliver this I'd be in your debt," ask Soren gratefully.
"It's not that big of a deal, no need to go that far. For the future though, you may want to think about your seal. Wax seals are important for integrity of the letter, and at age 15 you should be able to create your own unique one," replied the wolf beastman.
"Sounds like a way for the government to identify you."
"HAHAH. Aye."
Soren handed the man a few silver for his trouble, before turning to Skadi, "Lets go hunting."
**************************************
James was sitting at his desk mulling over some paperwork that came his way. He was the mayor mainly due to his connections with the Dominating Titans guild. He was able to become a B ranked adventurer, after the incident ten years ago when he and his two best friends almost died he decided to stop being a slouch. Once he initially got his Dueler class he didnt do much training, he would get stat points every time he leveled up but never went out of his way, he was able to be a D rank with just that and used the power he obtained from his class to get what he wanted from those with either a weaker class or no class at all. Seeing how powerless he was against a C class or even a C- class monster drastically changed his outlook from then on he worked hard to level his skills, and up his combat abilities and even developed his own unique skills. This allowed him the power to go back with Greg and kill the C- ranked ogre in that old dungeon that had given them all a little trauma, after presenting the head to the Dominating Titan Guild they proclaimed me him to his current post. Greg did not want the post but he had happily accepted, though even now he was still honing his skills. While James had been concentration during his recollection of the past, there was a sharp {rappa}{tap}{tap} at his door.
"Come in."
A young woman named Jill around the age of twenty walked in, she had brown hair tied in a bun, thin frame, and a dress with frills and handed a sealed envelope with his name written on it.
Jill explained while handing over the envelope, "This was given to me by Cane, the wolf beast man in the one room shack that Ness used to live in."
"Ness was the brother of that kid huh, but he hasn't lived here in five years, did he return?"
"According to Cane, Ness has not come back at all. He doesn't know who the letter came from it was just delivered to his home."
"Very well, thank you Jill."
Jill did a slight bow and exited the room shutting the door behind her. James grabbed his letter opener and tore into the note, his eyes widened and his face grew pale. The note read:
Long time no see James. I've come back, I thought only a few weeks have past since we last saw each other, but apparently ten whole years had gone by, I guess that is what happens once someone dies, time eludes them. It may have been ten whole years to you but to me James its only been a few weeks since you locked me into the cavern with the ogre. You, Greg, and Evan will reap my vengeance for what you did to me. I will repay you many times over James, just you wait for me or you can meet me two miles south of the village in the clearing around midday a week from today. I know you probably won't James cause you're a coward. If I have to come to you James, it'll be much, much worse.
-S
James sat there in horror, he had no idea what to make of the letter.
This letter is far too specific to be anyone but that brat, what was his name? We always called him some stupid shit. How could this kid of survived that monster? At the time the three of us with classes would have died and he wasn't even a man yet. This letter says he DID die, then how did he come back? Do we all come back? Was it due to the artifact we were searching for at the time? I don't like this, I'm not as weak as I was but I need to have the upper hand in this, I've got to make some calls.
This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.
James got up from his chair in a hurry, hastily threw on his cloak and left his office. He went to straight to the Dominating Titans guild for their assistance, which was part of their agreement for him to sit mayor for them. He introduced policies, procedures and laws that would directly benefit the guild and be the face for the guild in exchange for their support. Luckily, this was the first time he had ever went to collect on said support so he was hoping they'd hold up their side of the bargain.
"Guildmaster sir, can you send three men to the clearing 2 miles south of Pine Grove around midday a week from today? There's a roach that needs taking care of, they should all B rank," said James with a smirk. The guildmaster raised an eyebrow, "You need three B ranks to get rid of a roach?" James went on to explain the contents of the note he had received and convinced the guildmaster that if he didn't this roach could destroy everything the guild had worked for. He left out the part where the man seemed to have come back to life thinking it was too farfetched to warrant his support. Nevertheless, he managed to convince the guildmaster to send three B rank adventurers to take care of the pest. James definitely was not going to go himself, not that he didn't have the time, but did not need to. In the off chance it was the kid back for vengeance, he did not want that problem.
I need a drink, that kid will be dead again and I'll be able to relax.
James was counting on the details of the note, if Soren had only revived a month ago he wouldn't be strong enough to deal with the B ranks even his old D rank self would have been enough, little did he know Soren was not the same as before either.
Class selection, the moment in every young person's life that is eagerly anticipated. Upon reaching your 15th birthday, a god grants you a blessing known as a class. Whether a greater deity or a lesser deity just about everyone gets a class. It is extremely rare that one goes without a gods blessing, sometimes, people can receive the favor of more than one god, however, even if you have multiple offers you're only able to select one offering. Two days before meeting James in the clearing Soren woke up to an onslaught of notifications.
Please select one of the following classes:
Magic Swordsman- Greater Deity
War Mage- Greater Deity
Rampant Hunter- Greater Deity
War God- Supreme Deity
Archer of the Wind- Greater Deity
Wow so many, I thought Id only have one option, the War God one is suspicious, its the only one from a Supreme Deity. System check War God Class. Then check the other classes.
Shit.... War God may very well be the most powerful class here but it comes with a huge downside, if I get a chance to grow before running into people with the "God" classes I may stand a chance. Soren spent several hours arguing with himself, he had already died once and wanted the power and ability to live for however long he desired, but there was a fire within him. A fire that hated when he was bullied for being weak. Each of these classes would give him the power to do just that, but was he satisfied with just survival. He had made his mind up long ago, he wanted to be on the top and better yet, he wanted everyone to know he was on top. After much deliberating he finally selected. I choose War God Class. Immediately upon selecting his class he got numerous notifications <+8 to all stats> <+2 bonus to Vit> <+20 to magic> Oh now that is very interesting.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Soren Race: Trollkin Variant: Herculean Class: War God Level: 10/25 Health: 500/500 Str: 95 Dex:71 Def: 71 Int:56 Vitality:110 Charisma:60 Magic: 100 Luck:100 Bloodline: Royal $%* ^$ &#(@!
