Putting his fingers up into a frame, Zero tried to scour for a good camping spot. Jermine and the sand walkers would need a comfortable place to be at. It would be even better if he could add some light sources and water sources but the dungeon seemed to not like it. "The laws of the dungeon differs," Mii explained while filming Bob’s fight. The dragon didn’t seem to be struggling with the ghoul scorpions but he was having a hard time cooking them at the right temperature. "Some dungeons absorb…-

Jermine dug down till she hit a literal wall that Zero and Bob took turns analysing. It didn’t feel like solidified sand rocks. In fact, the surface was so smooth that it surprised Zero. Who knew that underneath all that sand and sand rocks, there would be a rocky layer? Mii did some research. While Jermine dug through and mined through the sand and broken rock layers, her claws were not strong enough to break metal or bedrock which was what Zero and Bob were working with. The monsters inside the…

Bob and Zero decided to branch out in different directions while Jermine zoomed around and made winding tunnels. They decided on a strategy to dig downwards branching in several different directions for a few kilometres so that Zero and Bob can split up and scan the area to see if there are any underground caves or creatures nearby. Zero had to admit, Jermine moved underground faster than they could crawl through them. He was having a hard time keeping up with his original vessel form so he transformed…

The first day of travelling through the desert had been comfortable for everyone. Bob was happy that he was finally able to assume his human form even though it shocked Jermine badly to know that she was travelling with a dragon, a murderer and a powerful magician who called himself a doctor. They settled down for the night comfortably with Truen opting for the night watch although Zero insisted that there really was a need seeing as he had portable magic arrays for camping. The archer didn’t agree…

Zero remembered that his shifu used to say "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" and the doctor strongly believed that as long as you set your mind to begin something, you are already on that journey. Yet, he couldn’t fully master the concept of how patience is a virtue. Zero was always reminded that the lack of patience in small matters could destroy great plans, especially when diagnosing someone. As a doctor, everything must be checked thrice and then three more times to ensure it…

Zero was bored and Jermine was sleepy. They had been waiting in this room that Desert Lily prepared somewhere underground. Why wasn’t Truen done with negotiations yet? "Did they forget about us?" Zero asked and Brutus looked slightly apologetic. They were waiting for nearly two hours but nobody checked in on them. With three people in a small waiting room and uncomfortable chairs, the stablehand couldn’t blame Zero. Jermine was used to waiting but Zero was bored out of his mind. The Black Mamba…

Even after the official start, neither Truen nor Monoman made a move. The tension was so thick and the audience didn’t know what was going to happen. It wasn’t often that they saw a match between two experts. While not much was known about either man, it was clear to everyone that they were not going to display their full might in a match within the Dirt Ring. The wind swept through the Dirt Ring, kicking up dust clouds that obscured the vision slightly. That was when both men moved simultaneously.…

Truen didn’t know why he felt like a son going to school with his embarrassing family on meet-the-parents day. Dwayne didn’t come along for obvious reasons. People would go crazy if they saw the strongest man in Deadman Town in the Dirt Ring. Instead, Brutus was assigned the Zero-sitting duty. Bob was tucked away nicely in Zero’s shirt and Jermine held the doctor’s hand so that they wouldn’t be separated in the crowd. Truen walked ahead of them and Brutus followed behind Zero who tugged on…

At the Dirt Ring in the middle of a sweltering afternoon, Truen waited patiently. He couldn’t understand why the audience preferred to be burnt by the harsh sun while watching sweaty men duke it out in the Dirt Ring. Where was the romance in this? It was ridiculous. Thank goodness there was heat-regulating magic on his clothes or Truen might never agree to the matches. The Griffin was as intense as Desert Lily made him out to be. This man wasn’t here to make money, he was here to satisfy his…

Zero wasn’t sure why the entire town was hyped but it was probably a good thing that nobody was going to pay attention to him. Zero learnt from Brutus that the biggest merchant group in Deadman Town was the Green Hawks and that was going to be his first stop. He wanted to go to the auction house to sell his goods and learn more about where the slave traders get their slaves. If he could nail the most corrupted nest of traders and reform it to introduce slave rights, the lesser powers would have no choice…
