Cap 2: An unforeseen invasion

My face became a little serious, in my mind thousands of questions, doubts, everything but I will only choose the most important ones for the moment. Well my first question is.

"Since when and how did these 4 races appear?" My question surprised him a bit, maybe he thought I would ask about the king or something like that.

"Good question, well the races appeared in the year 2201, how they appeared I don't know, but if I know who was the first race to appear" << The first were the goblins, they were weak and had no intelligence at all. At first everyone panicked, the goblins devastated everyone. There were a lot of them, but the humans at that time managed to control the situation, then the orcs came out, they were stronger than the goblins and a little more intelligent >>

<< This made the world shudder, people did not know what was happening, they did not know where they came from, they were terror. After a while the orcs and the goblins became allied, it was a disaster at that time orcs and goblins against humans, 4 years passed thus, in 2205 the dwarves began to leave, two years later the giants came out, by 2207 they had already When the beasts came out, these were mostly "werewolves", and finally the dark elves appeared in 2210. They all fought, humans, orcs and goblins united, the dwarves, the giants, the beasts, and the dark elves >>

<< Those who gave battle were the giants, the beasts, the dwarves and the dark elves, the beasts for being very good fighters, more than the orcs, the giants for being much stronger, the dwarves for their intelligence and the elves for their tactics, intelligence and good in battle, obviously the humans had better territory gained, well until ...

In 2225 a man appeared, that man appeared out of nowhere, this man wore a black hood covering his face and his entire body. In some way or another he managed to be heard by everyone, that mysterious man carried a cane, you could see a gray beard on his face, that strange man said the following >>

<< "My last moment in this life has arrived, and now I will disappear, my purpose is to fulfill and I will do the same. I disappear and this era too, a new era will be reborn and another war will be fought, everything in this world will change, the medieval era will appear, but something I will add on my part, magic in that new era you will have, and new powers you will have. What to look for, having said that it is time to leave so. Welcome to the fantasy era ">>

<< At the end of saying those words, with the tip of his cane he touched the ground three times, and the whole earth began to shake, the sky changed colors, everyone was stunned, the shaking lasted 5 minutes, man The mysterious one was gone, it was gone, the six races were magically located on each continent, and these were divided, everything calmed down for 100 years. In the year 2325 the war began again, everything turned into chaos, and so we are until now >>

"Mmm I see, I thought that a man had ruled and ended up making the world like this - I still think that I have something to do with all this."

"Tell me, what about magic? What race learned to use magic first and what kind of magic exists?" I asked, intrigued.

"Well, about magic, the dark elves were the first to learn about magic, they were and are very good at magic, the second to learn about magic were us, humans, the dwarves also use magic, beasts don't use it much, it's rare to see a beast use magic and giants don't use magic".

<< As for the type of magic that is used, well ... The dark elves use dark magic, everything that has to do with the dead and spells and all that, the dwarves only use attack magic, they use it more than all on their weapons and we use healing magic, crop magic and attack magic. With healing magic you can heal a scrape to a broken bone, the magic of crops is used more than all the farmers, they are in charge of sowing and with the magic of crops they speed up the process and make each crop grow good and fresh, instead of attack magic we use it more than all of us guards, only the most skilled learn spells and high-level magic >>

<< Among the attack magic are, the creation of a defense field, either a wall or a dome in case of protecting your group, the resistance of these is based on the strength and high energy level of the individual, There is the creation of sacred weapons, be it light swords, fire bows, fire swords, lightning spears, things like that, there is the invocation of a guardian, this invocation magic is also used by the dark elves, but theirs they are more of shadows >>

<< There is also the creation of elemental magic but, this is very difficult to learn and use, so the only ones who use it are the elite guards, I (Mailux Sardian), Zedrick Viler (the man behind the king and on Mailux's right side on the day I was freed, the man in armor), Aliz Firzin and Brauli Morzon. I can use the elemental magic of Earth, Zedrick can use the elemental magic of fire, Aliz the elemental magic of water and Brauli the elemental magic of wind >>

"We 4 are the only members of the elite guard, we 4 are the strongest but still, we cannot protect the entire continent alone, we need help," he said with a serious face.

"And that's where I come in, right?" They think that with my help and that of my friends we can protect the continent, for my part I think to accept but I am still a little doubtful.

"Why are you doubtful?" I mean, you are strong and immortal. I don't think you are afraid of death. "Mailix said with a slightly mocking voice.

"It's not that, it's that I want to explore the whole world and see everything that has changed, but I would still have to fight so, I think I'll end up joining you."

"Well I wait and you end up accepting, about training how long do you think it will take to regain your strength?"

"Well, in a week I'll be like new, of course I work hard, but it also made me want to learn attack magic".

Just when Mailux was going to say a word we heard a bang, Mailux and I left the cafeteria to see what was happening and there it was, something I had never seen, something I only thought existed in the movies, it was amazing and terrifying At the same time, there it was, wreaking havoc. A giant, a fucking giant murdering people.

There were ten guards surrounding him but on his left shoulder there was a dwarf shooting with some kind of shotgun? It was weird, it looked more like a trumpet, but it still hurt. He threw some mini rock balls wrapped in fire, the giant was big and fast, they sent the guards flying.

A giant and a dwarf had invaded the city and those two destroyed everything that was crossed.

"Quick, let's go defeat that before it destroys the city," Mailux yelled at me as he walked away.

I just followed him, to which we arrived Mailux went to a guard who was shooting arrows and told him.

"How the hell did a giant and a dwarf enter the continent?" His face was filled with anger and concern.

"I-I don't know sir, nobody informed us of anything, we only heard some screams and we came to check, and there was the giant with the dwarf destroying everything," said the guard a little nervous.

"Demons go and tell the king that a giant and a dwarf entered the city, and tell all the guards to check all over the corner of the city if there is a beast, where there is a dwarf and a giant there must always be one beast. But go now!" Mailux raised his voice.

"Yes-yes sir!"

The guard quickly withdrew to report what had happened, I was out of concentration watching the giant, I had never seen one, he is between 6.30 meters tall, his skin looks rough and he had a swampy green color, his face was wrinkled and He had scars on his arms and head, and on his left shoulder was the dwarf, he is 1 meter tall, his skin was a little yellowish and his feet were huge, I would say they wear about 48.

"Sam Borzon, get ready to fight now!" Mailux was saying as he addressed the giant.

I obviously followed him, this would be the first time I would fight a giant, we were a few meters from the giant and it looked huge.

"This giant is huge, I've never seen one and less have fought with one" I said with my head up looking at the giant.

"That's nothing, the adult giants tend to measure between 7 and 7.30 meters and the elderly giants reach 8 meters, the giant king is 9 meters high, this giant is still young.

"9 meters !? That is an exaggeration. Anyway, how will we end up with that giant?" I asked nervously.

"First we have to get rid of that dwarf, it's a bummer if that dwarf gets into our fight

"And how do we defeat him?" He's very high" I looked up.

"Leave that to me," Mailux said.

Mailux ran around the giant, staying behind him, he has an impressive speed, Mailux stretched his right arm and out of nowhere he began to create a type of arrow, but this was made of earth, once he finished creating it, he launched it quickly towards the dwarf, he did not realize it in time and the arrow ended up piercing his chest.

The dwarf fell from very high and when he hit the ground there was nothing left of him, Mailux yelled at me to attack the giant but I had no weapon and could not use magic, I looked to my left and saw a guard, I ran towards the and I took away his sword, the truth feels light. I ran towards the giant and stuck the sword in his left foot, he screamed a little and Mailux took advantage of it, he created a huge spear of earth and threw it towards the giant's left eye.

Now if I was screaming in pain, I was distracted screaming and trying to remove the spear, an idea crossed my mind, I told Mailux.

"Mailux join your two hands so you will create a semi-arch to support me".

"A what? Like so?"said Mailux joining his hands creating a "bow".

"Exactly," I said with a smile on my face.

I took 7 steps back and then ran towards Mailux, I put my right foot on both Mailux's hands and he threw me with all his might upwards, I also jumped at the moment to have more momentum. I went flying through the air and reached his neck, I turned on my own axis and with my left leg I gave him a strong kick in the neck. The giant was off balance. He was about to fall.

Mailux created 4 thick arrows and launched them to the right knee causing the giant to fall to his knees, I grabbed his head and quickly got on the point and jumped with all my might. I turned around leaving my head down, Mailux saw me and took out the sword that I had nailed to the giant and threw it at me with all his might, he added a small ball of earth to the tip of the sword's handle to better direct it did me.

I caught it and stretched my two arms to the front, the giant raised his face towards my "Big mistake" I stuck the sword in everything in the middle of the eyebrows, I nailed the complete sword and Mailux to finish it off he nailed another huge spear in the chest. The giant was slowly falling forward, when he fell the ground shook a little.

"Ugh that was intense," I said as I wiped the sweat from my forehead.

"Yes, what was it," Mailux said with a somewhat exhausted voice.

"But what happened here!?" Zedrick comes out of nowhere with a group of 6 guards.

"This giant appeared out of nowhere with a dwarf, I sent a search throughout the city to see if they found a beast since the giant was only with the dwarf," Mailux explained.

"Yeah, me and my group found him attacking two people, he was a young beast," Zedrick said.

"I see," Mailux said as he adjusted the glasses.

Zedrick looked at me and said. "Did you two defeat this giant?"

"That's right, it was a bit difficult to be honest, but in the end we managed it," I said as I scratched my head.

"I see, well the king wants us all in the royal hall right now, let's all go at once," Zedrick said as he turned around.

Zedrick, Mailux and I headed to the royal castle, the 6 guards who came with Zedrick stayed to get rid of the giant with the help of 7 more guards, once we reached the royal hall. There the king was sitting on his throne talking to three guards, but these guards had different armor, maybe they were generals.

"Well, could they with the giant?" Asked the king, the three general guards withdrew from the royal hall.

"Yes, but about 27 people diedand some buildings collapsed and several houses no longer exist, it was a hard blow. But I still do not understand how a group of a giant, a beast and a dwarf managed to cross the borders when they were young?" Mailux said as he gave a slight bow and adjusted his glasses.

"Hmm, me neither, I'll have the defenses reinforced at the border starting today." Well Sam Borzon, haven't you decided yet if you will cooperate with us to prevent this massacre?" asked the king.

"After fighting with that giant and seeing how he destroyed only part of the city, I came to the conclusion that it was. If I will help this kingdom and the continent to fight to avoid more deaths" I said while having a serious look.

"I'm glad to hear that Mr. Sam Borzon, so from now on you're free without any guards to accompany you, but you still need Mailux, don't you?"

"That's right, I still need it to train and teach me to learn elemental magic, I understood that to fight and win I need to adapt to this new change."

"All right, Mailux take care of teaching Mr. Borzon everything he needs to get him ready. They can be withdrawn, oh and Zedrick your wife sent a letter, wants you to go to the holy lake".

"Yes my lord," Zedrick said as he left.

The three of us bowed farewell and left there, Zedrick went to that sacred lagoon that I don't know where it is and Mailux and I headed to a training ground, I want to learn everything about magic and new attacks if I want to defend everyone this people.

"Are you ready to train hard?" Mailux asked.

"I'm more than ready!" I said with determination.
