Ero Meter - Chapter 208 End of the world.

“Jack, what the hell is this place?” Feba asked as she looked around her.

After travelling north for hours and fighting many more monsters they finally reached a portal and entered it and now they were in a different space than before.

Feba could see big walls made up of stone and there were some carvings on the walls that looked like humans dancing.

“This looks like a maze,” Faneel said as he looked ahead for him and gritted his teeth. His gaze then landed on Jack who was standing between them quietly, his clothes were torn and bandages could be seen below them.

Feba noticed Faneel’s gaze and also looked at Jack’s bandages. She remembered how he got that wound.

It was when they fought the ten flying tigers. One of them flew towards her and Jack protected her by pushing her aside and taking the hit instead.

A guilty expression appeared on her face as she moved towards him and placed her hand over his shoulder.

“Jack, I am so sorry.” She said tears almost forming in her eyes.

Jack turned his head and looked at her in the eyes. “Don’t start crying again.” He said with a serious expression on his face.

She has been crying for the past few hours every chance she gets and Jack has stopped her many times, however, she refuses to listen.

Feba listened to him and took in a deep breath to control her emotions. “OK, I won’t cry but you have to rest. That wound was pretty deep.” She said.

“I have already explained this to you before. I am fine and we don’t have time to rest. I have to move forward and achieve my goal.” He said as he looked ahead.

“There is no way you are okay, that wound was not normal, it could kill you if you ignore it.” This time it was Faneel who spoke. He had seen the big wound with his eyes and could tell that for it to heal it would take at least several months even under doctors’ surveillance.

And Jack was walking for hours with just some normal sutures that Feba did and some antiseptic. There was no way Jack wasn’t feeling any pain.

Jack looked at both of them and sighed. ‘I can’t tell them that I am healing quickly because of my Ero Meter.’ Jack has discovered that he was healing more quickly than normal.

“Guys, I told you that you have to believe me and follow me.” He said with a disappointed look.

The first thing he said when they met was that they have to follow his every order if they want to follow him.

Feba and Faneel listened to him and turned silent. They knew that it was somewhat their fault that Jack was hurt in the first place, if not for them then he would have killed all of the tigers without any scratch.

“Ok, let’s go,” Faneel said and nodded. “I hope we don’t meet any weird monsters in this place, I have already had enough of them for this lifetime.”

Feba nodded at his words, she also didn’t wanna face anything right now.

Jack stayed silent and started moving forward, “You guys stay behind me.” He said and got in front and after that, he took out his notebook while walking.

Feba and Faneel noticed him taking out the small notebook but didn’t say anything, he had taken out his notebook many times in the past few hours and Feba had already asked about it.

Jack told them he was taking notes about this strange place.

They soon ignored his notebook and started looking at their surroundings, looking for any sort of incoming danger.

Jack on the other hand started writing questions.

‘Is this a maze?’ This was his first question and he got yes as an answer.

‘Are there any traps here?’ This was his second question and this time the answer was no and when he found it out a relieved expression appeared on his face.

‘Will we meet more monsters here?’ He asked again and this time too the answer was a no and it placed a small smile on his face.

‘This place might not be as dangerous as the previous one. The only tricky thing is that it’s a maze and if not for my truth meter then we might never had any sort of chance of getting out of this place.’ Jack thought and closed his small notebook and placed it in his pocket.

He then looked ahead and could see a long corridor surrounded by big walls and in the distance, they could see fog hiding the whole place.

Jack took in a deep breath and readied himself. “Follow me closely, or we might get lost.” He said.

“Ok.” Both Faneel and Feba nodded and moved closer to him.

…..

“Mother look at them,” Echo said as she pointed below at Rebecca and her team, they were currently busy fighting a humanoid monster.

“Hmm…” Vieva stayed silent as she looked at the creature.

“Should we capture it? We can experiment with it later.” Echo suggested as she looked at the monster.

“No, we need to focus on the Ring of Power instead.” She said and looked at North, “Let’s go.” She said and started flying again.

Echo looked at the monster one last time and sighed, she then started following Vieva.

“Mother, do you think that the strange power we felt was from that green girl?” Echo asked as she moved beside Vieva.

“Shut up,” Vieva said and continued to fly without speaking, there was a serious expression on her face.

‘That power! It was greater than anything I have ever felt, I might not have been able to defeat that girl without the ring of power.’ Vieva thought and gritted her teeth, ‘I must avoid her at all costs before I get my hands on the Ring.’

Echo listened to her and turned silent she didn’t wanna annoy Vieva.

…

“Where should we go from here?” Ashely said as she slowly moved towards the compasses and picked them up.

“I don’t know.” Hena snorted and flew up to look for any hints, however, she could only see vast grassland. She then returned back and stood in front of Ashely.

“I think we should return,” Ashely said as she looked at the two compasses. “That little girl said that we can get out of this place if we crush these.”

“No, I am not leaving this place, until I find that little girl again,” Hena said as a wide smile formed on her face. “I want to play with her.”

“How do you think we will find her again in this vast place?” Ashely asked with her hands on her waist.

“We will,” Hena said and took one of the compasses in her hand.

“How?” Ashely asked again, she wanted to get out of this place, but couldn’t do it without Hena or her mother would kill her.

“Let’s move, we will eventually stumble on someone.” She said and placed her hand around Ashely’s waist.

Ashley’s eyes widened at her actions. “What are you doing…” Before she could complete her sentence, the time around her slowed down and then suddenly the world around her started to wrap at high speed.

Hena has taken her and started flying around the world randomly.

After about an hour Hena finally stopped and landed on the ground. She also placed Ashely on the grass too.

“Ugh…” Ashely moved aside and started vomiting. “You should have at least warned me!” She looked back at Hena with an annoyed expression.

However, her words were completely ignored as she saw Hena looking at the air with a wide smile on her face.

“What are you looking at?” Ashely stood up and looked at Hena with a confused expression. She couldn’t see anything other than grassland in the direction Hena was looking at.

“I knew it,” Hena said suddenly and chuckled.

“Knew what?”

“Look…” Hena moved her hand forward and suddenly a ripple formed in front of them.

Ashely looked at it and furrowed her brows, she also moved her hand and could feel a strange invisible wall.

“Is this some sort of barrier?” She looked at Hena.

“No, it’s the end of this dimension,” Hena said and started laughing loudly.

“End of the Dimension…” Hena touched the invisible wall again and gulped her Saliva, only now she could feel, how fast Hena was travelling.

‘She is way more powerful than the rumours. The Blake Family created a monster!’ She gulped her saliva and calmed down, now she was less stressed with Hena by her side.

“So what should we do now?” Ashley asked.

“Haha…. Nothing, there is a wall, it means the area is limited and searchable. It might take some time but we will eventually find something.” She said and looked back.

Ashley listened to her and stayed silent, if it was anyone else then she wouldn’t have believed their words, however from Hena’s mouth these seemingly impossible words seemed possible.
