Heading south, days passed, then weeks, as I started getting attacked by monsters by the hour even during the night, which led to me not getting a lot of sleep, but massive increases to my skills and gains.

\=================/

I have been attacked by a wide variety of monsters that ranged from strange illusion magic-wielding Arachne, to giant lizards that spitfire.

I have fought in many Life or Death battles and have honed my skills past what they once were.

I have been training with my Cosmic Energy Constructs whenever I had the chance and have been using Cosmic Energy Constructs whenever I could during my fights with the monsters.

I have passed the border and have been traveling by foot through forests, side roads, country roads, and have found myself heading towards New York for some inexplicable reason.

I felt drawn there as if something was calling out to me...

And whatever it was, felt safe and trusting...

At first, I thought it was a trap and tried going towards California, but I always ended up finding myself going towards New York for some reason.

No matter what I tried, the only way I was not heading towards New York, was staying put.

So, I slowed down my speed and used every chance I got to train and increase my strength for whatever awaited me in New York.

Using my Domain of Nature I have created a couple of offensive spells, mainly Combust, Freeze, Rot, and Decay.

All of which happens naturally in nature.

Those specific spells only work in a couple of ways.

Through touch or some kind of medium like an Arrow or weapon.

And once I am strong enough, I should be able to use the spells like an Aura and affect my surroundings and enemies with the medium only being me.

But that's far into the future.

...

Traveling slowly towards New York, I found that it wasn't New York that I was being led to, but Long Island.

Although I did feel something...was occupying New York and it was effectively a Monster Free Zone.

Taking note of that, I was annoyed that I was still being forced towards Long Island.

No matter what I did, I only ever found myself traveling in the same direction.

Turning around eventually led to me somehow returning to walking the same place somewhere on Long Island.

I also noticed that as I grew closer to wherever I was being led to, monsters became even more common to the point I was running into them by the hour.

What's at my destination that it is drawing so many monsters?

While I did fight almost every monster I met, I decided to avoid the more troublesome ones while I fought my way to the 'signal'.

I eventually made it through to a strange tree in front of a rather large greek-style arch that read 'Camp Half-Blood' in old greek, wait...how can I even read that shit?

Also Camp Half-Blood? Where have I heard that?

Suddenly I heard a roar and upon turning around to face whatever made the sound, I came face to face with a beast of Greek Legend, a Chimera.

Seeing the large beast that was even larger than a car, I prepared myself for battle and readied myself to move.

Suddenly, with the Chimera charging, I jumped away only to see the Chimera slam into some kind of...barrier?

Before running away...

Clop. Clop. Clop.

Suddenly hearing something uncomfortably close behind me, I waved my hand and dozens of Cosmic Energy Arrows flew towards the noise before I quickly turned around ready to fight whatever snuck up behind me.

Before me was a strange Half Man and Half Horse.

Seeing him easily dodge and deflect all of my arrows, I raised my eyebrows and readied myself for the difficult fight ahead.

"Steel Yourself!" Shouted the Centaur.

"I am not your enemy!" He continued.

"Who are you? Where is this?" I asked as I guided the roots of a couple of trees to start gathering underneath him just in case he proved to be dangerous.

"My name is Chiron, this camp's activities director, as for where we are, we are at Camp Half-Blood, a camp that protects, trains, and guides people like you, Demi-Gods."

"How do you know I am a Demi-God?" I asked suspiciously.

"Only Demi-Gods and a select few allowed can enter the camp, and since you obviously are not one of those allowed, you can only be a Demi-God, do you perhaps know who your divine parent could be?" Chiron explained and asked.

"...I don't," I lied.

"That's unfortunate, but expected."

"But you no longer need to worry, here you are safe from the horrors of Monsters, although it does appear that you can handle yourself," Chiron chuckled thinking about my arrows.

Then it clicked, I finally remembered why those names felt so familiar.

I was in the Camp-Half Blood Universe, I think.

Which, is not that great since I am the son of one of the 'big three'.

Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades.

If I remember correctly, monsters can smell and track Demi-Gods who are aware of their parentage, and those that are the children of the big three, are just magnets for monsters...

And while I have found myself in an awful situation, I knew I would be safe in Camp Half-Blood for a long time and could safely grow in strength so long as Hades does not reveal himself to be my parent, and Percy Jackson has not yet arrived at the camp.

You see, Percy Jackson, the son of Poseidon, is just a magnet for trouble.

And knowing the fates, I most likely would get dragged along for the ride.

And being recognized as the child of Hades?

Even worse due to his horrid reputation with his fellow gods.

Mentally crossing my fingers, I followed Chiron into the camp.
