Chapter 6: Huic: Goliath’s Fist!&8221;

Dorian watched ide eyes as an enormous fist made out of a type of dark black wooddown on it

BOOM

The wooden fist had appeared out of nowhere, and th that it the as unable to avoid it, even if it was a Sky Class beast The resulting impact caused the first to explode and splinter, shards of wooden shrapnel bursting outward

The wolf let out an angry whi it into the ground The attack took it completely by surprise, when its attention was focused entirely on the Red Salamander in front of it

The Ironhide Wolf stayed down after the i

Dorian scaround as possible as he watched all of this

Gradually, the figures of several hu near the wolf Three of thedark leather ar swords Another looked like sorey silk robes

"Toldro, check its status&8221; Willia his hand at the doolf

The er quickly moved forward, his steps careful but assured He knelt down next to the wolf, looking it over

"It’s still alive, and in good condition!&8221;

As Dorian watched this all unfold, he realized solish, yet he could understand hi?’ Hewisdoes in the 30,000 reale of the 6 widespread languages, and the 300 or so lesser languages, into the Soul Spell Matrix of everyyou, Firstborn Your understanding and ability to speak is innate, should you form a body capable of speech’ Ausra’s voice responded, cool and concise

Dorian smiled internally at the revelation He’d alanted to learn a foreign language, back on earth Now, it seeranted, in a way of its own He shook the es of hisup He couldn’t afford to think about that right now

"Excellent!&8221; Willia his face They had actuallyfor, and not only did they ed to capture it easily and alive by taking it by surprise

Ironhide Wolves were basically walking treasures, especially living ones that could be raised His luck really was turning around, hunting down the rumors for this wolf had turned out to be absolutely worth it

"Wood Magic: Sealing Bell!&8221; His fingers twisted as he cast another spell, calling a large, three meter tall and 2 ain, calling into existence several rabbed the doolf, tossing it unceree wooden bell The bell than immediately sealed shut, with only a few holes in the side of it to let in air

"Sir!&8221; Captain Lancaster spoke up fro forward

"Should we do anything about the Red Salauelywith his hand

Dorian froze when he heard this, not daring topretty well The cover of the tree and underbrush lanced over exactly to where Dorian was, staring at his hiding spot for a et rid of it&8221; The wizard folded his hands together, preparing to cast another spell

Dorian didn’t stick around, and i away as fast as he could He blasted through the forest glade, hurtling past trees, a spark of fear blazing in his heart

Willia Red Salamander in surprise

"Did it sense our intent? How very unusual… Whatever&8221; He glanced over at the floating bell with a satisfied look,

"Let’s head back to Yor City!&8221;

Dorian ran for a solid 30 seconds, reaching the edge of the forested valley He hid near a set of large boulders at the edge of the treeline, his body heaving Adrenaline, or the Salah his vein as he shivered, trying to stay cal over the situation That was the only way he could explain how the woodThe existence of his Soul Spell Matrix, and his Flah! Those are the first humans I’ve htly, feeling an odd mix of happiness and disappointment,

‘Maybe I should have stayed, and tried to coht for a ht

It wouldn’t do to stand out too ht now That hu he was unable to do Staying put would have put hi his claws

What he needed to do was to becoh that he could relax and travel in safety, and et back to Earth

He stayed hidden for a fewto be sure the hu spot, and crept back into the valley Heany unnecessary noise

Gradually, he cals were back to nor about settled in, noring the occasional e beasts in the distance

Soon, Dorian traversed to the lowest point of the valley, searching for the ‘darkest pit’

After spending 10the valley with no luck, he walked over to the strea a rock in frustration He watched the rock sail along, sroups of fish

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw so in the river move too, startled by the movements of the fish

A familiar shape

It was another Brown Treasure Clam!

Just to be sure, he checked with Ausra, who confiruess He stared at it, curious

‘Ausra, this is the second clam I’ve met now Aren’t they supposed to be rare?’ He enie was silent for a ,

‘Brown Treasure Clams are drawn to fate, and fated objects The one you found earlier wasfate to send you here This one here probably has some relation to the previous cla at the cla the bottoh the crystal clear water

As he watched it, he considered a possibility he hadn’t thought of before

Maybe the deepest pit in this valley wasn’t in the forested area…the cla its movements If it was drawn to fate… then there was a distinct possibility its home where it slept would be near the dead wizard’s treasure

The cla startled by the fish, see the bottoood hundreditsa bend and turning, all of a sudden, the Brown Treasure Cla from his vision

Dorian pounced forward, his eyes alert as he scanned over the part of the strea closely

Sure enough, after looking around for a few seconds, Dorian saw an opening in the side of the stream wall The hole was difficult to see, positioned so that you couldn’t see it if you were standing on the outside of the streae, about two meters wide and aa claw in He felt rock, and then open space He looked at it again before shrugging Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Dorian took a huge breath, and then dived under the water, pulling hi His vision was excellent, even under water His eyes quickly adjusted to the darker at slanted cave tunnel that seele The water level in the cave was steady, not rushing outside or in, but in equilibriu down the end of the visible path and turning

He surfaced for a e breath, and then dived back down and began swieway

As a Red Salamander, he could hold his breath for at least severalin the first ure out a separate plan

Despite being underground, the cave path seeae on the cave floor Dorianthe end of the path in a few seconds

As he turned the corner, he sahat looked like a large pool, and a layer of water bordered by air He s up a few feet

"Woo!&8221; He let out his breath and took another deep breath, looking around at the underground cha moss that was present in the water was also present on the roof of the cave, lighting the place up The ceiling was around a rey rock About two thirds of the room slanted upwards, with no water on it, while the other third was sub on the slanted portion, Dorianitself in-between a collection of white rock

He blinked as he studied the rock, coht was a collection of rocks was actually a haphazardly piled cluue human shape He also saw a faded, brown pouch set underneath the bones, covered in grey patches

This was, e in that ring

CRACK

One of the bones fractured as the Brown Treasure Cla to hide beneath it

Dorian frohen he saw this and stepped forward, bringing his claws to bear He drew upon the energy in his soul, activating his Fla Claws ability as he stepped forward

First he’d take out the clao look to see if there really was any treasure left behind

In a world very far from Dorian’s current one, a man sat alone in an ereen throne The throne stood easily three meters tall, and floated in the air, set with intricate carvings of wizards casting spells and fighting off fantastic beasts Various ge it a powerful and rich appearance

The roo red carpet leading to it The bland grey stone that reatly with the powerful, detailed appearance of the throne A large, glowing yellow sphere lit up the roo atop the throne appeared to behair, and a short, gruff black beard His violet eyes were glea jaw and s, red scar ran down the length of his right cheek onto his neck, and a set of ht white robe, adorned with a black colored insignia of a wizard’s spellbook His height was above average, at 6 foot and 5 inches, giving hi

Atop his head rested a sli at the empty room He turned his head back to look across froe, five meter tall set of stone doors

"Enter, Cassiera&8221; His voice was rich and war sense of authority and untold power

At the sound of his words, the doors immediately opened A beautiful, blonde haired woreen eyes and gli, silky blonde hair She was lean and fit, the curves of her body visible through the tight blue dress she wore

"Your Majesty&8221; Cassiera’s voice was cal down A slittered

"What does the Fate Magic Department’s preliminary report state?&8221; The man on the throne waved his hand at her, a bored look on his face

The Fate Magic Departic Departanization that controlled more than 10,000 worlds

Cassiera trembled as she heard him respond to her, a look of adoration in her eyes

"The disturbances in Fate have appeared in 88 different worlds in total Of the affected, we have 32 of these worlds under our control Each disturbance was tumultuous, and while the exact details of what happened are unknown, if left unattended, the fortunes indicate a disaster on the scale of the Yale Demon Invasion will occur&8221;

The htly

A disaster on this scale would have e the face of the Autarchy as it stood

A glea&8221; He snapped his fingers twice

Ily nowhere, two black masked and robed man appeared

"Taron, issue a Decree to all 108 Departation of the 32 affected worlds under our control David, anize overtures to the planets not under our control, infor our assistance Get the information you need from the Fate Department&8221;

The man waved his hands as he ordered two of hison his face He turned to look back at the blue dressed woly

"Cassiera Your Fate Departs&8221; He gave her a war her fro as she left
