3 Prologue 3

The sun is up, yet this place is dark shrouded by the shadows of clouds and mist.

In the midst of darkness, the sound of steps is the only thing you can hear. The miasma who shrouded the place form a vague shape, it twisted just like a some sort of something, it grows larger as it closes, it became a humanoid shape, and when you look closely instead of "it", it was instead a "he"

He wore a silver mask with a hoody black robe, it was loosened a bit enough for his muscle to be outlined, and he also wore a black pants

Overall, he looks too gloomy that he can be mistaken as a storm

The rocks were never rare in here, it had a variety of shape, many shadows were under it making it look like there is someone in there even though there was no sun, nevertheless, it was creepy

"Hey little guy," He said while rubbing the head of the peculiar lizard on his head, the guy pauses looking like he don't know what to say next

While he was on the dilemma, the thing peculiar lizard who is resting on his head, move his head just like he was pushing it

"hey little guy" he then call again after a minute of walking then, again and again, he calls it to who knows much time making the lizard annoyed to the point that he bite a mouthful of hair

Julius was thinking about what to say to its little buddy to lessen his boredom when a silhouette can be seen in his opposite direction it had the shape of a human. Two arms and two legs, but its other hand is seemingly overly long as it reaches the ground

When he looks around him he only saw dessert contrary of what he saw to his back

"troll?" he, surreptitious move to its direction

vitriolic voice can be heard on its lips

@$%##$%@" With its swarthy skin looking negligent at the terrain, mumbling unintelligently, it was so stupid that you won't like the sight of it

"swarthy trolls hmm, it will be a nice partner to stabilize my condition from my breakthrough" since he starts his journey he didn't find anything at the outer zone but rocks and miasma. It was about time he seeks for joy otherwise, boredom will come

The swarthy trolls had a sharp and big nose and have big lips but on the contrary, his eyes had a color green and were slited

Walking in the forward direction with his steady advance, raising his right fist over his eyes while the left is over his neck posing like a boxer he walks while showing his figure to the opposite

The swarthy troll slightly pause looking like it was surprised by a new acquaintance

the arm looking from the far was actually a mace, long shaft and rounded ball protruded with spike here and there

"$$%@#%"The guy raise his mace forward and shouted some unknown language. His body was defined by his own muscle, he was very too muscular that it was hideous

He was intimidating him but on the contrary, Julius didn't even falter a second. The troll notice that he was not intimidated, he can only do his basic instinct. mash it through!!

With a single leap, amounting a several meters in the air with mace above his head, the momentum of that leap was tremendous that you can't afford to take it all, and if it is, it was then the time to say your goodbye to the world

then a deafening blast rang out when his mace contact the ground, the ground who is obviously fine earlier became uneven because of the blast, but there is no figure there only the ground

"let's see" an indifferent voice was heard on his back followed by a painful punch, it was directly to his ribs, and by the looks of it, it was broken

Knock out by the impact of the fist, readying his stance again but with more vigilance on his posture, smashing its mace horizontally with greater alacrity but it was easily dodged by the incredible dexterity of Julius followed by a jab at its left breast making the troll stumble a little but didn't fall just like the first one readying again, rising its mace but only got kick by its face making it enrage

Like a mad dog, he keeps smashing the mace aiming for Julius, everywhere he dodges the mace will follow making it harder to dodge for ordinary people to dodge it but Julius is not ordinary people but far from it

"hmm, it was disappointing but i expect this, i'll just wait for the others to notice this " saying while jabbing at everywhere the loopholes that can be exploited after a round of beating making Julius satisfied by its power of his, he decided to finish the job

"Hmph!" shouting while throwing an uppercut to the pitiful troll ending its misery life

"huff!" he then fixes his clothes and had his hand to his head but he didn't find what he wanted to find, so he looked around, and saw him slithering toward the dead troll

"but it's a pity because its only a slave swarthy troll, not the warrior if it is then it will be more exciting" saying with apathetic

Humans have a system called "Stairs to heaven". it was a system told by his father and was used for a millennium, and just like humans many civilize race has system that governs their entire populace, it was either a bad and good system

Slave-a trolls that had no attribute to any elements, they are made to be just for pleasing the vanity of the upper trolls and a hunter for the tribe, actually the slaves are greater in numbers than the warriors because gaining an attribute is hard. they had a strength of two adult man so they are dangerous and much so when they group each other

Warrior trolls- are the protectors of each tribe they are meant to die in wars and protecting the warlords of the tribe. only trolls that had an attribute can become a warrior or else they are meant to be please with. Warriors are the equivalent of two knights of the humans making them infamous to many races

Warlords-the highest ranking of the tribe there is. they can command the warriors with great clarity bringing the full potential of its army.

Warlock-They is a great mage legends say that the great war of races, warlords can even bring down the stars and summon fiery golems to bring havoc to the battlefield. They govern the whole tribe but they were not considered to be on the ranks because when a troll born with an element they were destined to rule the tribe even if they were still juvenile

That's why he said it if its a warrior troll his train can be lengthy a little longer, if the trolls heard what he said maybe they will just laugh at it or cry by laughing at loud but who knows

While he was contemplating, the lizard had reached the place, it slithered to the upper body and stop to his left chest

Crawling to its left breast, sweeping its little claw trying to dig something out of it, if the troll knows his body can't even rest at peace maybe it will breakdown, crying to its momma

rip ~

rip~

At long last reaching the destination of his hardship

grabbing it to its embrace while salivating it

"hmm" Looking at it he got cold sweat thinking that the little one he brought was weird.....slightly?

But shook his head and was back to observing his surrounding

"hmm" he then catches the sight of the lizard hugging a heart shape black object at its embrace salivating, he watches it with a blank expression as always. he know what it is, the heart of the intelligent monster and magical beast had

When the monsters and magical beast ate the element of the nature, the nature fuse to there heart making them intelligent but not as smart as human but some are, as they ate they can be stronger depending to its quality of the delicacies

And this one is black color but it's just a faint one" maybe 2 to 3 months he will leave his cocoon and go to be a warrior but sadly he met me" he shakes his head apathetically then something bizarre happens

wosh~

wosh~

The heart disintegrate to small cubic black things making the area illuminate
