Chapter 29

Hope and Alon final arrived at the demon hunter academy.

Few hours after their arrival, Alvin meets with him in his room as he was about dressing up.

‘ am sorry for barging in like that, I know I was suppose to knock but am here to ask your a question ’, Alvin said.

Hope turns around, ‘ ok, go on ’, he replied.

‘ it's about Sir Gaius disappearance, how do you know he was gone or is there something you are hiding from me ’, Alvin asked in a serious tone.

‘ no, seriously am not hiding anything from you am just curious that is all ’, he replied.

‘ just tell me how you knew he was gone ’.

‘ ok, here is how it happened, I was on my way to your room when I heard some group of people gossiping about Sir Giaus, I never really took it into concentration, am really serious ’, Hope replied.

Alvin walks to the door, ‘ ok, no worries, thanks alot for your time ’, in a soft tone.

Hope expresses relief as he walked out from his room, ‘ thank goodness ’, in a soft tone.

While at midlands Northampton.

A figure could be seen sitting on a chair, he was a young man, average in height and black in complexion, his eyes were also as black as his skin, he was just keeping his mouth busy as he slowly sips from a cup of warm Cocoa.

He tilt his head up and drops his cup.

‘ why are you here ’, in a bold tone.

When suddenly a voice boomed in.

‘ master,.. I have ...fa..iled you ’, in a weak tone.

He looks in to the darkness and it turned out to be Rishi.

‘ what happened to you ’, he asked.

‘ a demon hunter intervened, I had no chance against him, am sorry I failed you master, am ready to pay with my life ’, Rishi voiced out.

‘ am really sorry, that would not be necessary, you will have to die to pay for you mistakes, remember our oath of pure legitimacy ’.

‘ I do ’.

The young man stepped down from his chair and said to him.

‘ who told you that I will kill you, you don't deserve to die yet, now get out of here and treat yourself before you end up dying like an animal, go ’, the young man yelled at him.

‘ thank you master, you don't know how greatful I am to you, thanks alot for everything ’, Rishi walks away from him.

The young man was jomovic, the lead of the night hawks, his father was murdered by a demon hunter years ago before he was even made leader, knowing this he swore to kill every last demon hunter in sight. Now breaking his family tross for vengeance, the demons now penetrates his land and kills people of his community.

He turns his front view away form another figure that just walked in.

‘ I see you doubt your own men, you don't know what you are doing, it's better you stick to what you are good at or else you people might die like animals ’, One said.

One was a feared road warrior, he was known for his powerful moves that are said to be unseen and undescribable, he could kill twenty people under ten seconds with just a wave of his sword.

He was average in height, fair in complexion and a little stronger than Jomovic.

‘ mmh, you were never wrong, or never have you failed me, let us place a trade, you help me monitor Rishi and kill him if her screws up and at the same time kill Alon and the demon hunter that saved his miserable life from death ’, in a serious tone.

One laughs with him.

‘ don't worry yourself, consider it done ’.

He vanished into the shadows with Jomovic back view against him.

At the demon hunter academy.

Angela was busy attending to Alon when Alicia walks in to check out the new patient, as Angela sights her they were both observing their own conversation while Alon was facing a dilemma.

In Alon nightmare...

He was just running for his life, like he was been chased by someone or something, he falls on his feet and begs for mercy but what ever was after him had a bad mind, an intention for killing him. He rolls on the ground but suddenly he appears at another event in his dream where he was having a conversation with a figure.

‘ you really thought you could escape from us, am sorry to say that you were wrong am sorry it had to end like this ’, as the figure rose up his sword and was about striking him, he immediately opens his eye only to see himself in another realm.

‘ hello, hello ’, Alon calls out loud for attention but it seems to be a no man's land.

‘ well, I better start skim through ’ he said.

As he begins to walks away, it seems he was walking through the same place over and over again till he got angry.

‘ what the fuck is this, life why are you playing with me, I don't like this piece of shit ’, he yelled.

As he was about taking another step, he heard a voice coming from a distance.

‘ am coming ’, he runs in search of the unknown crier.

Getting there, he saw a very young girl, covered in blood, she was tall in height, black in complexion, her hairs were as black as he skin colour.

Her back view was turned against him, he reaches for her when suddenly a dark entity enveloped the room.

‘ what the hell is this ’, he turns around, and stares at the dark clouds when suddenly the girl jumps on him.

‘ get off him, I said get off from me ’, he throws her down, she aggressively lands on the ground.

‘ am really sorry ’, Alon apologize but she turns out to be a demon, she jumps on him again, this time planning to rip off his throat, he struggles with her and final throws her down to the ground again for the second time.

She drags up her broken ankle and slowly moves towards his direction.

‘ where did you think you were running off to, we are not yet done am gonna kill you the eat you and then bury you like you have always wanted ’, she said.

She lunge up to him but this time sending him to another dream realm.
