The Monastery

Jan 2

They have dropped me on the perimeter of the ruins and I am scouting the whole ruins for planning my attack. The outermost perimeter is guarded by a couple of type A and B fiends but as you go towards the centre the security tightens.

As my drone reaches the centre of the ruins the display on my screen goes off. Just as I had expected. In the few seconds of time that I got before the display on my screen going off I did not see any portal, instead I saw a long sword hovering in the air above the exact centre of the ruins.

I didn’t need someone to tell me what it was. It was the Summoner of the Phoenix. The sword I myself had forged in the boiling blood of a fiend with various magical ingredients, one of which was the jaws of a type E. It was believed to be stolen by one of the members of our clan. He was very inexperienced and probably he died trying to harness the power of the sword. The sword has been long forgotten.

I want it. I no longer care about the portal. I want my sword back. Obviously no one other than me can wield the sword and so it has ended up hovering in the territory of fiends.

I want the sword and so I fight my way to it. I set off for the centre of the ruins, hands wielding the xblades, the mage whip at my belt and the magical mace slung across my shoulder like a backpack. 
My backpack is stuffed with supplies including the bottle of fire syrup that can give me strength and warmth when I need it.

I bring the A and B fiends patrolling the outer perimeter of the ruins to an end with several slashes of my xblades. The blades have this strange thirst for fiend blood. The more you give them the more they want, but in turn they become more powerful.

There are a total of 15 rings of security around the sword and I have broken through one. If my math skills aren’t too shabby, it will take me about 7 days to get to the last ring of security and depending on the amount of fiends there it will take me 2 to 3 days to get to the sword. All in all it would take me a maximum of 10 days to get my hands on my weapon.

Guarding the 14th ring are a few type C’s and a few hundred type A’s and B’s. I sheath my swords get a firm grip on my mace and am ready to go when something unexpected happens. I see a figure running towards me. I brace myself into a defensive position and then as the figure is close enough I realise that I am in no danger.

It is Katie. One of the other hunters in our clan. She is a good friend of mine. She had left our clan a few months ago. Said she wanted to roam the world and learn more about fiends. I hadn’t expected her to ever come here.

She came to a stop beside me and gasped for air.

“ How d’you happen to b‘ere.” she said

“The clan sent me here to get rid of me. Said they wanted me to close the portal. But I know they want me to die.” I replied

“This place is very weird.” She said “ I’v been studyin’ this place since I left.”

“What?” I said “ but you said you wanted to roam the world.”  

“Um, yea’. Bu’ then I decided to stay ‘ere.”

“ Have you gone to the centre.”

“No bu’ my drone has.” Katie replied

“Where do you stay.”

“I stay down there with an ol’ man who is a blacksmith. He makes fiend weapons.”

“What did you see in the drone.”

“All I see whenever I sen’ my drone there is a long black sword hoverin’ in the air.”

“That is the Summoner of the Phoenix.”

“Wha’!” she exclaimed “ That is your sword. but wasn’t it stol’n.”

“Yeah, probably that idiot died trying to summon its powers. The sword was then taken by the fiends.”

“Oh! So are you going to retrieve the sword or are you coming down to my hut.”

“Nope, got no time to spare.”

“ ‘k bye.”

“Bye.”

Types of Students

As you must have read in my previous post there are all types of students across the world but if I wish to write about all those students I’ll have to write it in several hundred parts of a series. Si I, who doesn’t want to do that, will write about the funniest ones in this post. Make sure you comment below which category did you fit in. I’ll start with the nerds whose hands shoot up in the air at almost every question asked by the teacher. Ahh those cringy students who, even after an exam, have started preparing for the next exam although the next exam is 4 months later.      There are also the bookworms who take a trip to the library at least once a day to borrow a book. They seem to finish the thickest books in less than a day. Perhaps there should be a big debate on this topic, ‘how the hell do the bookworms complete their novels in less than a day,’ Now those are just the normal, ordinary bookworms. There are students who read each book at least...

The Psycho Part 2

My sincere apologies to all my dedicated readers. I could not post for the past month. My last post was on 28 April 2019 and now it is 9th June 2019. I spent the time honing my English skills when I realized that my skills had started to deteriorate again. So anyways today I am posting the second part of 'The Psycho' and believe me, this one in much better than the first one. So if the first part was a disappointment then I assure you this one wont be. If you like it don't forget to leave a comment below 👇👇👇 and subscribe up there 👆👆. The Psycho One month into the superhero business and I had already learnt how to use most of my powers. After waking up a month back I felt completely dis oriented, I felt like I was hallucinating. It felt as if I were seeing the world from a different perspective, quite literally. Thanks to the little bit of study I had done in the subject of physics, I knew what the special ability was – I was looking at a 3d world thro...

The Monastery-Part 1

Hello readers. I am back with another mind blowing series. enjoy reading ' The Monastery' there you go. If you want to read all the written parts together then click  over here . The Monastery Jan 1 I am as good as dead. Hello my name is Sam and I am a part of the Fiend hunter clan. The fiend hunter clan tracks down fiends that have taken refuge in this world. Fiends are creatures that live in another parallel world and are occasionally found out in the open, finding a place to hide. There are the ruins of a Buddhist monastery In China where the main portal between the two parallel worlds is. The monastery contains the biggest community of fiends on Earth and everyone who has gone there has never returned. My clan is sending me to the place so that I can fight my way to the portal and close the portal forever. The statistics say that 6 out of every 10 fiends that are spotted outside their hiding place are from this monastery and so if I am able to close the...
