Chapter 4: Power

Aurora was in silence after Alistor revealed his power, and Micreal was on the horse sitting observing his master's powers. Alistor's skeletons went and slashed the creature left and right, as the creature fights back, it failed, because the skeletons were far too resilient, and can't be stopped, only Alistor can make them stop, the creature then roars a roar like lightning, it was very angry.

"I'll end this quick." Alistor said as his arm lifted forward then the skeletons were quicker and faster, attacking the sides of the creature, the creature jumps towards Alistor and tries to punch him with its fists.

"Dodge! quick!" Aurora shouted as Alistor jumps towards the creature and passes it, Alistor lands calmly and landed safely, behind was the body of the creature sliced in pieces, Alistor turns around and said "well, I made a mess, better clean this up now, Micreal helps me clean this up."

"Right away sir," Micreal replied and gets off his horse and helped Alistor to clean the body up, as Aurora gets off her horse also and the shadows dispersed around them.

"What did you just do?" Aurora said in shock

"I killed the creature, that's what I did" Alistor replied and Micreal disposes of the body by burning it and Alistor looked around and continued "It may need time to rebuild this village, it's pretty damaged."

"Yes, it may need time, I will have my workers help the reconstruction," Aurora said and looked around, she brought out something and she pulled out a bag of gold "Here, it's not much but this will help you with your journey"

Alistor accepted the bag of gold and said "what about you?"

"I will stay here and reconstruct the village, my helpers are coming right about now:" Aurora said.

"How did you contact your helpers? didn't see you doing anything but sit on the horse" Micreal said out of curiosity.

"I have some few spells up my sleeves" as she said mysteriously.

Alistor and Micreal left the village and left Aurora in the village to let her reconstruct the village. In the dirt road, while riding the horses and going back to the capital of Zulu, Alistor said "This might not be so bad after all"

"Sir?" Micreal said as he rides along.

"This world ain't so bad after all, our world was good too but almost everything is discovered, but this world, new unknown, new things to discover, new ways to explore." Alistor said as he looked at the sky.

"But what about our comrades back at out world sir? they will be alone without us, maybe break out war even," Micreal said while worrying.

"Don't worry, We will find a way back while exploring this world, there must be some reason why we were mysteriously transported to another world." Alistor replied as he cheers up micreal.

"Hope so sir" Micreal replied.

{a Few Days later}

Alistor and Micreal were back at the capital and looked around for supplies, while Alistor picked a house for them at a plain field of grass and a house in the middle of it. Sometime later, they looked inside their house and decided to live in it as a temporary base, they had a map of the country, and Alistor wants to explore the continent, they were living quietly since the attack from the northern village, they still don't know why they were summoned to the world they were in, but Alistor wants to find answers as he works his way through the current world.

"Well, its all dusty, but it just needs a fix-her-upper, micreal, your the best at these things, I'll leave it to you," Alistor said on the door entrance, as he was preparing to leave and get some more supplies for them.

"Leave it to me, sir, I cleaned the whole castle alone, this won't be a problem," Micreal said as he was confident to his cleaning skills.

Alistor went back to the capital once more and find more supplies for them, He saw a girl who was dragged by thugs in an alleyway, and decided to go and help her, as he enters the alleyway, he saw the shadows of them and peaked at the corner.

"Hey missy, want to do something fun?" the thug says as he tries to seduce the helpless girl and the thugs' giggles behind him.

The girl shivers from fear and tries to shout for help, but it failed because the alleyway was too deep to hear.

"C'mon, just a quick peek and we'll be off" as the thug said and tries to lift the girls' skirt.

The girl thought to herself "Please help me....Somebody!"

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Alistor said and appeared behind them

"Huh?!" the thugs looked behind and saw alistor standing there smiling, they continued "Did you say something you top-hat freak?!"

Alistor smiles as he stays calm and said "doing that to the girl is really bad manners so I suggest you leave her alone, and I will leave you no harm"

"No harm?" the thugs laughed, and throws a knife at him, but alistor deflected it with the shadow behind him. The thugs were shocked and said, "What the?!"

"I told you, Leave or you'll be going home without arms." Alistor said with a threatening voice, and continued "Little lady, please close your eyes and look away for a second this will end badly for them."

The girl followed Alistors instructions and went up against the wall and never looked back

"A-Attack!!" the thugs said and attacks Alistor, as alistor then breaks their arm with the shadow behind him and said "didn't I tell you? Run"

The thugs then run with cowering fear and left the alleyway with broken arms.

"Hello little lady, are you alright?" Alistor said and the girl looked behind and there he was smiling as with his hands open to take her hand.
