6 Someone extraordinary (1)

" Good morning uncle Spear. are you going to fight the scary demons today ? please i want to watch , please !"

"haha , little brat, it's very dangerous near the gate ,go and help your mom do the chores"

said uncle Spear with a hearted laugh as he looked at the inoccent and excited face of the kid greeting him.

this was a common occurrence for uncle Spear.

every morning ,on his way to the northern gate ,he would be greeted by the people of Afra city with faces full of reverence and admiration.

every child looks up to him ,and their ultimate wish is to witness their hero kill the evil beasts and chase them away !

uncle Spear is in his late thirties, he lives alone and has no kids. he joined the gate guards when he was sixteen ,he was an ordinary surveillance guard.

he got married at the age of 25 ,but sadly not even a year since his marriage ,a beast outbreak happened in Afra city and over a thousand citizens died in that tragedy. his wife was one of them.

In her funeral ,he made a oath to protect the city with his life.

he began to train crazily to become more powerful.he left the surveillance guards to join the gate guards.

he chose the Spear as his weapon to manifest his upright and unyielding will.

Ever Since his wife died ,the citizens of the City became his family , they filled the gap his wife left in his heart and helped to ease the pain in his heart .

many young and youthful women offered themselves to be his wife ,but he rejected all of them ,and told them that his love for his wife is eternal, thus he didn't want to marry anyone else.

as he was walking ,he met more and more citizens.

"Good morning uncle Spear , how's your day going ?"

"Oh look , look , it's uncle Spear ! Good morning uncle Spear !"

"Morning everyone" , sometimes ,he feels like he's a celebrity walking in these streets. but he couldn't help but smile seeing their enthusiastic expressions.

when he woke up this morning,he had a feeling that something terrible is going to happen ,but seeing everyone very happy and safe , his mood became good ,he gripped his spear ,put on a Stern military expression, and then headed towards the northern gate.

unfortunately ,his intuition was spot on. After an unexpected series of events , a King Agjim beast destroyed the gate ,and killed a unit of guards. even his ultimate attack failed.

he is now lying on the floor completely paralyzed.

there's not a single intact bone or muscle in his body! the impact of the attack he received completely shuttered his bones and tore his tendons !

he felt every part in his body is screaming in pain. However ,the pain that was torturing him the most was the ruthless fate waiting the people here.

He knew that no one here can stop the king beast from slaughtering everyone.

Even though uncle Spear was severely wounded ,he was still miraculously conscious. But he was loosing a severe amount of blood every second ,thus he knew that his fate is sealed and he will die in a few minutes.

"Another tragedy is about to happen" This was the thought that crossed his mind before he heard a voice.

He didn't know the owner of this voice nor what he said, but his intuition told him that this person is not simple !

He summoned the last bit of strength in him to open his eyelid ,he saw a young man , probably in his early twenties with a light blue colored hair , coming out of the restaurant.

Everyone one was strangely looking at him , even the Agjim king was staring at him with it's frightening red eyes.

The young man seemed indifferent to all of this ,he took out a silver coin and tossed it to the waiter who was near the exit door.

"Keep the change ".

"O-ok " replayed the waiter as he clumsily caught the silver coin.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone ,The young man with the azure hair headed directly towards the Agjim king.

He was walking neither slowly nor quickly ,he looked like he was taking a stroll inside his garden completely undisturbed by the beast.

"Hahaha , another ant is coming to it's death. Come here ,if you can take one slash from my tail ,i might consider giving you a painless death" Even though Agjim king felt something was strange about this human ,it still thought that he was only a little bit stronger than the last one.

Just as the Agjim king was about to attack ,it's eyes met with the young man's azure eyes. At that exact moment ,the king felt a deep down fear that originated from it's most basic survival instinct !

a cold shiver run through it's body ,and a stench of death filled it's nose.

It saw the man lift his finger and point to it's direction. Everyone was confused by the actions of this man ,some even thought he was crazy.

Zzzzzzz

BOOOM !

Suddenly a bolt of azure lightning struck the Agjim king !

Before it had any chance of resistance , it's body was turned into a charred corpse ! Then the lightning vanished like it was never there ,it didn't even leave a mark on the floor ! the weird part was that there was no clouds in the sky ,nor there was any Storm. the lightning seemed like it came from the sky itself !

No one in their wildest dreams would have anticipated this course of events.

Everyone , including the severely wounded uncle Spear ,was stunned speechless ! Their jaws were so opened that they almost touched the ground.

No one believed this was happening ,the people here kept rubbing their eyes thinking they were Imagining stuff !

But it didn't end here, uncle Spear was still recovering from his shock when he suddenly realized that the young man was standing two steps away from him.

"t-th-thank y-you " uncle Spear knew that the crisis was averted. He was now relieved ,he felt that he now can die with no regret, so he wanted to express his gratitude.

"Don't speak , I'll treat you injury".
