The First New World

After training and studying the language of the new world for a year and a half we were finally able to go to the land that we were summoned to protect. “Shiro I tell you to control your emotions. You are far stronger than you think híroÿ you will become a protector don’t let the evil slip into you” the goddess Kokono says to us and snaps her fingers sending us away. After waking up under next to a long river looking around and stretching I see kyoko and sanguine laying next to me in little chibi forms. “ I’ve never seen them like that before. It looks like I can have them around all the time” I say with a light smile. I then looked over at híroÿ and his group behind them was a large town with a lot of small buildings hurdling around and a huge castle in the back. “Looks like that’s the first town we should visit, shiro” I hear híroÿ's voice as I’m looking at the town. After nodding my head a sense of bloodlust falls on my body as a fireball is shot in our direction. Me and híroÿ jump back dodging and looking around trying to see where it came from. Looking forward we see a large monster. It has the head of a tiger and a body as big as a minotaur and legs the size of that seem too small to hold up this weight but look more like they are for speed. Drawing our weapons I change my sword to a bow and launch three fire arrows at the beast he avoids and appears behind me. He brings down a large sword that was held in his hand. I roll out of the way and híroÿ attacks him with his scythe after colliding with the scythe and sword híroÿ jumps back. I then launch three fireballs at the monster hitting him with them. Híroÿ then finished him off with a bolt of lightning through the chest. “Those are the monsters we are protecting this world from and it was a lower class” híroÿ says looking at the remains as they dissolve into a black dust leaving a puddle of sludge where he died. “A lower class and it took both of us looking like things are gonna get fun then” a slight smile stretches across my face as we start walking toward the town. Shrugging off the fight we start walking towards the town it’s a little distance away so it wasn’t that long of a walk. Walking to the entrance they stop us and say we have to pay an entrance fee and present proper registration. “Sorry but we’ve just come here anyway for us to just pass” híroÿ says clearly agitated. “We don’t know where you outsiders belong so you’re not entering” says the head guard while he and a 10 other nights draw their swords. “You’ve drawn your swords first are you saying you’re prepared to die '' I say with my eyes slightly glowing purple. They’ve provoked me and then pulled out their swords. I'll kill them. Quickly drawing out one of my swords I rushed the head guard slipping my leg behind his pushing the hilt of my sword into his chest knocking him down. After that I rush the next two behind him kicking them both in the chest. Three guards rush at me, swiping at me with their swords. I take a quick step back, spinning my body to the left avoiding their swords. I drop my body in the ground sliding using my hands to stop the momentum and pushing my body up spinning on my hand I then use that force to kick the three guards. Then doing a backflip I land behind the remaining guards and knock them out with a roundhouse kick. Híroÿ shaking his head looks at me “I think you took that too far” he says looking down at the guards that are groveling in the ground. “They pulled out their swords . They should’ve been ready for what came after '' I shrug as two more armored knights come from the gate. One is in a silver and gold plated armor long silver hair flows down his back with bright blue eyes. The other was a man holding a long wand that looked like it was made from a tree with a big bright stone that was orange. He had short red hair with red eyes and was dressed in a long cloak that was blue and red. “We mean no trouble it seems our knights have caused you trouble. The gold knight says pointing to the knights in the ground. “They shouldn’t have drawn their weapons then I wouldn’t have put them down” I say sitting in the ground. “We just wanted to enter your town, we just got in and lost all of our stuff on the way,” Híroÿ says looking at the knights. “We would gladly take you to an establishment that would register you just follow me” the magician knight says looking at us. I don’t really sense any maliciousness or ill will so I shrug and me and híroÿ proceed behind them. Walking through the town with my hands behind my neck I look around. The ribbons hung from the rooftop while food carts passed in the street. Walking through the town for a little while we approach a large castle with guards watching the front gate.
