Blood Type: Dragon - 229 Arkhoz's Dilemma
Arkhoz remained stunned for a while before finally standing up after a minute or two. Danna and the rest watched him recomposed himself and patted off the golden yellow grasses stuck on his back and sides.
“What… just happened?” The little fairy asked Arkhoz. A mixture of fear and anxiety-filled her green beady eyes.
“Tunga is probably not welcome to outside visitors. Should we go back?”
“It seems like entering the land of Tunga is not as easy as we originally think. Perhaps there is a condition to enter.” Danna said while slowly approaching the wall of light. Her beautiful blue eyes reflected the brilliant light from the wall while her royal red hair and tail created a vibrant contrast on her total image.
Slowly, her pearly white hands raised up and were about to gently touch the wall of light. Seeing this, Arkhoz and everyone else warned her.
“Wait! What are you doing? Do you want to get thrown away just like what happened to Arkhoz?” the scared little fairy shouted.
“I know you water elemental excel in healing spells. But who knows how powerful the repulsive force will be next time?” Unos, the wind elemental eagle warned as well.
Meanwhile, Arkhoz decided to leave the innocent mermaid princess alone.
“These weaklings who depended on me all the time thinks they can get inside before me huh… Idiots.”
A conceitful smile emerged as he prepares to witness the mermaid princess come flying hard.
“For some reason, I feel like I am being drawn to the light…” Danna mumbled faintly. She calmed herself and thought of the reason why they came. The lives of the elementals and the humans are currently dependent on the return of Elric who should be inside the Last Kaora’s Door.
She recalled the helpless faces of her people and the destruction of the Water realm. She realized that getting pushed away is just a minor issue compared to the lives that have been lost because of the invasion.
With a steeled heart and mind, and despite the constant warning of her company, she finally pushed her smooth and elegant webbed-fingers slowly to the wall of light before her.
Ziom~
“What!?”
“uho!~”
“waa!”
Contrary to everyone’s expectation, Danna’s smooth fingers went inside the wall of light without any powerful repulsive force against her.
“It’s warm and… relaxing!?” Danna was surprised by the unexpected sensation she felt from the other side. She could feel the unusual warmth of the atmosphere inside the Tunga. From inside, she felt a tremendous healing warmth that relaxes and clears her mind.
Her pale complexion swiftly recovered her reddish hue, while the royal red scales and her long curly hair had reached their perfect state. With just her fingers dipped inside the Tunga, Danna felt like all her worries and fears are gone. An unexplainable comfort and peace have washed her very soul.
It was the effect of the cleansing world of Tunga.
“Everyone, I think it is safe. Just come gently.” after regaining her perfect state, Danna calmly invited the rest with a graceful wave before she completely went inside.
Seeing the sudden positive changes to the overall condition of the mermaid princess before she finally went in, Katri and Unos cautiously came forward and slowly touched the wall of light as well, their eyes were closed and prepared to get pushed back in any case.
Ziom!~
“Yeeey!” I am in!”
Ziom!~
Quiaaa!
And just like that, Arkhoz was left behind.
“What!? Those weakling baggage are accepted?!” Arkhoz felt an unexpected frustration after witnessing the so-called weakling-baggages not getting the same harsh response he tasted a while ago.
“Impossible! Then why can’t I?!” Arkhoz grabbed back his weapons and sword before sprinting towards the wall of light. This time, he gave it his all with his veins slowly bulging out of his skin.
“Let. me. in!” Arkhoz, not wanting to lose against the three, smashed through the wall of light.
ZIIIISHAAANG!~
Aaaaaghk!~ Ugh!~ Agh!~Ghk!~Pwaaah!~
This time, Arkhoz’s body was sent back about five times longer than his past record. Along the way, he managed to bounce five times like a rugby ball before finally skidding to a stop.
Pueh!~
After a while, Arkhoz recovered from his dazed state, spat the golden grass he accidentally munched along the way and stood up with utmost frustration.
“Do not force yourself. You need to calm down first and let go of your negative emotions. It seems like those negativity has no place in this land.” Danna’s rejuvenated figure reemerged out of the wall of light.
“It is true. It seems that is the only way if you really want to get in. I was prepared to get rejected when I touched the wall, but my heart was calm and at peace.” the little fairy added.
QUIAAA!~
The golden beaked eagle confirmed with an energetic call.
“Shut. Up!” Arkhoz returned with an enraged look. His pride was gravely hit at the sight of the three joyful weaklings. As a proud Arkhan, Dragon Hunter, and Ancient Human warrior, he has been leading his own countless teams for quite a long time.
It is him who makes the decision and is always ahead of everyone in terms of power, position, and strategy. However, these three elementals seem to not know the true level in their gap and he is keen to show them just how big the difference between them on all aspects.
Arkhoz pulled out his advance looking guns and aimed at the wall of light.
“Wait what are you doing!?” a surprised Danna quickly shouted.
“Don’t do it!” Katri also cried in panic.
“Heok! Stop you fool!”
However, before they could even stop him, Arkhoz has already pulled the trigger.
Pezz! Pepezz! Pezz! Pepepezz!
“What!?”
A barrage of sizzling red lazer beams bombarded the wall of light by Akrhoz only to see his own shots coming back at him at double the normal speed!
Wheeez~ Wheez~ Wheeez!~
Fortunately, Arkhoz was a natural warrior with incredibly fast reflexes. Out of the ten lazer beams he shot and came back, he managed to avoid almost all of it.
Wheez!~Pohk!
Aaggghk!~
One-shot managed to hit him on his right shoulder and cause Arkhoz to kneel in pain.
“Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!” Arkhoz angrily hammered the lazer gun twice before throwing it away. His total image is now a mess. He swiftly pulled a healing gel out of his first aid packet, crushed it, and stuffed the gel in his sizzling wound. It was one of the advanced products produced by the Guardians.
And amazingly enough, the horrendous wound on his shoulder swiftly recovered at a visible rate thanks to the healing gel!
Arkhoz smiled albeit shortlived. A panicked call came before he could even relax.
“Arkhoz!”
“Arkhoz!”
QUIIAAA!
“Run fool!”
Arkhoz, frowned as he raised his head to look at the poking heads of the three ‘weakling’ elementals. Their faces were covered in horror while shouting towards him.
“Run! Behind you!” Danna’s voice echoed louder.
“Sh*t!” a cold chill swiftly washed over his back. Arkhoz turned his head before his eyes shifted from a frown to terrified.
This time, coming towards him from behind are countless carnivorous dinosaurs that are twice as big as a Tyrannosaurus Rex. However, what made them incredibly terrifying are the odd shapes and extraordinary fangs that are as long as four meters on each teeth.
GROOOOOOAR!~
KHIOOOOOOOONGG!~
KRAAAAAAAGGGH!~
Hungry looking giant dinosaurs that were never found on the records are currently chasing the Arkhoz. Some are dashing bipedal, others fly and more weird looking ones are crawling swiftly towards him.
Arkhoz’s gaze swiftly scanned his surroundings and realized that he is completely covered on all sides except the golden field towards the wall of light.
Shooosh!
Without any more thoughts of fighting, Arkhoz sprinted with all his might towards the wall. This time with a desperate attitude.
GROOOARR!~
KHIIIIIIIIAAGGH!~
Unfortunately, the giant underground dinosaurs were unexpectedly fast.
Despite Arkhoz running at a speed that can quickly overtake an Olympic gold medalist in two seconds, the chasing dinosaurs were on a different league despite their massive sizes!
Arkhoz finally dropped his pride and gazed at Danna’s poking head from the wall of light. With huge sweats and pleading eyes, Arkhoz shouted,
“H-h-help!”
“Drop your weapons! Clear your mind and remove your negativity if you want to get inside!” Danna swiftly instructed based on what she has realized.
GROOOOAR!!!~
THUD!THUD!THUD!~
Tap-tap-tap-tap-tap!~
Slowly, the massive hungry creature was just twenty meters away from Arkhoz. Arkoz originally wanted to keep the sword and other explosives for one last resistance.
However, that train of thought will be the same as giving up. And that is something that Akrhoz hated.
Clank!~Sthaagh!~ ClanK!~
Arkhoz made up his mind and immediately dropped the heavy weapon dragging him down. Immediately, he started to increase his speed and slowly increase the gap between his pursuits.
He heigved a deep sigh and decided to trust the so-called weaklings at least this once.
“Remove negativity. Do not force, do not resist. Calm down and breathe.” Arkhoz ran while mumbling to himself. As a warrior who has been to many dangerous situations, he was able to quickly readjust his mind just before making contact with the wall of light.
“Here goes nothing.” Arkhoz has only two outcomes at the moment. Either he gets inside the safe wall of light, or bounce back at the hungry mouth of the weird-looking dinosaurs.
Ziooom!~
Thud!~
Arkhoz tiredly collapsed to the warm gentle ground. An honest and true smile that he has never shown after a hundred years has finally appeared in his scar-filled face.
“Now that you are all here. Let’s go. Kaora’s door is waiting for your arrival.”
An unfamiliar voice of a woman caught Arkhoz off guard.
