Chapter 5

" We greet our lord! "

The three of them said in unison. Upon closer look the three of them were quite different from each other, apart from the fact that one was a woman.

The Man on the right was tall and muscular. Someone who looked like he went to the gym regularly. Both of them were wearing simple clothes, a shirt and pants that were somewhat old and tattered.

" You, on the right. What is your name? " Sam pointed at the tall and muscular man.

" Derrick, my lord. " The man said in response. As if contemplating something, he then added. " This is my brother, Daniel. "

Sam was a little surprised, he summoned brothers? Wouldn't their family be worried? He thought, then moved to the last person.

Black hair, black eyes. She was a little taller than the average women that Sam has seen. Unlike the Derrick and his brother, she was wearing a thin leather armour. Her arms were somewhat muscular and strong. Although she had a few scars on her arms and face, it didn't hide the fact that she was beautiful.

Sam couldn't help but think of a word. 'Huntress'

" Xyra my lord. "

After a few seconds of observation, a panel blocked Sam's view.

Xyra Hart.
Level: 1

An orphan that grew up in a small village. She was found by the village chief in the dense jungle. Taking her to his village, she was raised as a hunter.

Profession: None
Potential: High

Strong! Sam thought. From her potential, she can grow much much stronger, but if she was a hunter, why doesn't she have a profession?

Sam clicked the 'Profession' hoping to learn more information about it. After clicking it a few times, nothing happened, he gave up and went back to checking the status of the other two.

Derrick Berg
Level: 1

A commoner from a large forgotten empire. Raised by loving parents with his brother. They were taught by their father, who was a town guard, to fight.

Profession: None
Potential: Low

Daniel Berg, who was Derrick's younger brother, had the same description, only his potential was Middle.

The brother's were only normal people, on the other hand Xyra Hart seemed to have an important background.

" Okay, you.. do you guys have any families or something? Wont they miss you? "

The three seemed to be at a loss for words. Like trying to find long lost memories.

" I.. I can't remember.. " Xyla said in a low voice. After a few seconds, her expression returned to normal.

" I don't remember anything, but I know that now I am a citizen of your territory, and since you are the Lord, I must be loyal. "

So that's how it works, Sam said to himself, trying to figure out the information he received.

" Hey 'voice in my head', do you just take people from anywhere and wipe their minds? That seems cruel isn't it? "

[ That is incorrect. Those summoned in the portal are of the ancient past. Coming from long lost and destroyed worlds. They have long been forgotten in the sands of time. ]

" Oh.... okay then. "

It took Sam a little while to finally be able to think again. Maybe he was in over his head. The atmosphere between the three was a little awkward, he didn't know what to talk about.

'There's only one thing left to do, Survive.' Sam thought. I've been here for a few hours already, a few more and it'll be dark.

" I need to start working on some things. The fruits I got can be used as food, but there's not much. With four people, we should start gathering basic resources. There is one a problem though... " Sam looked back, at the border of the screen dome.

Outside the shield there was monsters trying to get inside. Before he could start exploring the area for food and water, he should find a way to get rid of them first.

" You guys know how to fight right? " Sam asked the tree people he had.

They nodded in response, but Sam thought of another problem, there were no weapons.

" Since we have no weapons, we'll have to improvise. Using the fallen branches as a makeshift spear. "

They started to gather the branches and sharpened them by rubbing them on large stones. After a few minutes the three of them were holding wooden spears. Crude, but it was sharp.

Moving to where the Goblins were, Derrick and Daniel were in the front, Xyla in the middle and Sam at the back. Of course he wasn't going to fight, he had very little experience, and he couldn't afford to die this early.

" Are you guys ready? Prepare to fight. "
