Not wanting to waste any time, immediately Rafael's consciousness awoke in his chained body, he began to pull himself with all his might off from the wall. At first he thought it was fun as he enjoyed how his muscles bulged to the pressure but as time began to pass he began to feel pains on his wrist making him to focus more on pulling himself off than the admiration of himself.

"What will you do if you successfully get out?" He clearly heard a chilled voice ask him as though the one who spoke it was soliloquizing in his sleep.

After scanning through the room without spotting the one who spoke he assumed he was hearing what really did not exist but it made him hesitate a bit.

Since he now understood that there was a world beyond the dungeon this question made him stop for a while and think. He knew Gregor thought that on freeing himself from the chain, he would begin to feel a soul but he now had reasons which made him believe that there was more to it than just freeing himself. He thought he would probably find a way to connect this body of his into the other or vice versa before he could successfully feel accomplished.

After racking his brain on how to escape from the dungeon which he had never seen it's exteriors, a place which he did not know whether it was located beneath the ground level or above the skies for a while, he gave the idea up.

He would find away only when he had seen it and will only see it when he was free from his chains. This he thought.

"When you dream try to pull yourself out of those chains even if it hurts to a great extent. Sever your chained wrists and ankles off your body if you can then wake up a stronger man." These words of Gregor resounded in his head and boosted his morale and he resumed pulling.

Soon he discovered that his attempts were doomed not to be successful as neither the wall not the chains bulged, fear of what might happen if he does not pull himself out successfully began to grow in him and he began to attempt to cut his wrists off with the blunt cuffs this progressed very slowly fortunately this body of his, felt less pain and had more endurance than his body in reality. But his progress made him begin to doubt if he would successfully pull out one hand even if the effects of the sleeping pill lasted through the night much less pulling his other limbs off.

He consoled himself assuring himself that he would continue the next time he sleeps off but again the thought of how far he would go without wrists him and probably without complete legs again bothered him but he waved the thought of this stumbling block away once more convincing himself that he would know his next step when he succeeds after all me would still have his teeth.

Suddenly his body jerked and he began to feel as though someone wanted the permission to watch him. Fortunately he felt like he had the power to prevent the intruder and this he did.

Then he occupied himself with the thought of success and continue spilling his blood as he successfully began to cut deeper into his body as he groaned inwardly.

Moments later he began to feel as though someone was watching him but this time he failed to cut off the connection he only scanned through his environment and got convinced that no one was watching him while he continued to wound himself more.

"What are you doing?" He heard someone who he did not hear approaching or enter ask.

  • Chaos

    Principal Rojo spent some moments inspecting the fallen Jerry. He wasn't sure he had seen very correctly. "What powers was this which I just saw?" He found it difficult to believe and digest the fact that the boy he just knocked out tried to use the power of lightning against him. That he definitely had never seen. "Lock him up in a different cell. Make sure they lack nothing and keep them guarded always. He ordered no one but soon another group of staff came running to do his bidding. He continued towards the door and tugged at it to open it. But was unable to do so. When he tried harder he noticed that unless he destroyed the door he would be unable to pass through it. He didn't need to think so much before he realized that however it was done, it was obvious that the door was locked by one of the students to prevent his passage. Levi wouldn't let him cross after he had knocked Jerry out. "You would certainly grow to be bigger if you continue this way I really encourage this." He

  • Cowards

    With more zeal than anytime ever before, the students from principal Luke's academy assembled when they were invited to the dormitory hall. It was now no news to them that their hero was yet to return from the principal's home and needed an explanation for that. Many especially those who now thought him close friends of theirs were already preparing to go demand an explanation from the principal when he came to them. They eagerly went to meet him to hear what he had to say and when he got satisfied with their numbers he began to speak. "As punishment for their several categories of crimes, those who worked with the inverses are punished by being infected with the beast's virus. Most of these people become crazed beasts of theirs which they easily deploy to deadly battles but on special advantages to them, very few of them become first-class infectos. These people are very useful to them and could be easily mistaken to be normal human beings when in truth they can be best described as

  • Bigger problems

    Rafael was mad at how the little boy made him bleed from his mouth and especially made him get hungrier than he already was but he could only bite his lips bearing the pain. Of course, he would not want to create a bad impression of himself by fighting them all even if he was strong enough to. Even that he doubted he was able to do. On the other hand, the boy who looked like the least infected of the infecto trio felt like he was being underrated for being small instead of being respected in the place where he ruled. He did not take Rafael's ignorance as honesty. The only way to establish his position before him was to make him see what death looked like and plead for his life. This he thought and that he did. "Make a feast out of him." He commanded the other boy who seemed to have been eagerly waiting for this moment. In a jiffy, he untied him from the pole in his cell and without unbinding him grinned widely and roared as he lifted him off the ground with ease. His roar was rep

  • Team Rojess

    Unquestionably, Jess genuinely missed their days of training and collaborative duels when they both came out at the top of their squad by working together. The collaboration between the strong and the cunning fox obviously looked nothing short of amazing and the impact of their attacks was nothing a little less than deadly. It always thrilled everyone that their collaborative techniques looked harmlessly beautiful but at the same time was very fatal; a thing no one dared to mess with but at the moment things had gotten more serious that they barely had time to even sharpen their collaborative battle techniques much less go on a mission together. She had always dreamt of the day they would fight by each other's side once more but never had she thought that the enemy would be so huge at this moment the thought of who their enemy was made her dread his insinuation. All along she had not seen that request coming else she would have found means of preventing him from bringing it up but

  • Celestial Energy

    "I don't think dumping him inside the infecto camp in that manner is the best idea." A pretty middle aged lady replied respectfully with a slight frown on her face. "But he is an infectos and that's just where infectos are meant to be kept." Principal Rojo insisted calmly and instead of being disturbed by the woman's suggestions he slowly rested his back against his sofa. And turned his attention to scan through the pictures in his living room like he was just seeing it for the first time. "The other students who don't know what he really is would surely come to demand for their friend. It would have been for the best if instead of disposing him secretly, you publicly made an example of him after which you do away with him. What will you do when the students insist on seeing him?" "I am no criminal. What I did was just the supposed thing to do and so I would go to them and tell them what I have to tell them not waiting for them to come to demand from me. I am in charge here Jess an

  • Food or royalty

    Rafael was met with two shockers. First he could not understand why select was given to him as an option. Secondly the fact that the infectos just like beasts had cores.He tried to see what lay after the select and surprising to him another menu rolled out before him.[Absorb core][Reward: Select][Replenished health + 10 stat points][Reduce the beast virus in you + 3 stat points]"What the...." He subconsciously exclaimed. What really were infectos that they are able to reduce the beast virus in him?" Just when he asked rhetorically a theory began to unroll in his mind but just as he was about to make sense out of the logic he was distracted by a presence he felt behind him however before he could turn, a hard rock was smashed on his head and knocked the living daylight out of him even before he could feel pain.In response to his state at the moment, the chair he sat on became immaterial and he fell off from it to the floor to continue his deathlike sleep. Regin knowing that h
