4. Companion found

     Just six months ago, Daniel was forced to be a slave for a powerful elven lady who forced group of elven people to become her slave, the lady was extremely powerful and cheerfully shew her wrath to those who disrespected her

“You stupid elf, you want to join your mates in the pit, eh.” The large man roared and gave Daniel a hard slap on his face which immediately turned red, the large man pushed him out of the scene and began walking toward a wide corner.

….

“Settle here dummy.” The large man scoffed and pushed Daniel into a small dark room making it almost impossible for someone to see

     Thud!

     The man slammed the door leaving Daniel to stand in front of the door, he stared at the complete darkness and heaved out a sigh, he walked zigzag to a corner in the room and sat

“What’d you do to be in here.” A thin soft voice asked in the darkness, the voice seemed kind of blur but vividly defined that it was from a female

“I slipped a bag of beast pearl.” Daniel gave a cold answered raising his head unto the ceiling

«Companion detected»

«Would you like to link with companion [Yes : No]

   Daniel read the message from the system, he stared at it with a blank face since he never expected anything except hit point reminder

“What is your ability.” Daniel asked the girl pushing the system notification aside

“Nothing, I have no magic at all right from the beginning of our race change till now.”

The girl stammered like she suddenly got distracted

«Linking with companion will begin in 3…2…1»

«Companion found – Evolution will begin now»

«Evolution complete» 

    The system automatically agreed to the link while Daniel stared at the text with confusion, his suspicion seemed to be very correct, this system was connected to the girl and explained her as a companion.

“Are you Daniel Coleman.”

“Hum, so you are my companion eh.” Daniel stood up from the ground staring at another context of the system which gave him a total dumbstruck

 «Skills 

[Spark burst – A light sparkle which when eaten by a creature cause an instant explode. 

Time limit – 2 minutes] 

[Thought share – Can only work between Companion, thought are shared by instincts.» 

    Eh, Daniel stared at the context which floated in front of his eyes, it seemed different other than the past information he had, almost every stats on him had increased dramatically excluding the ‘Divine’. 

Exp, which was a short for experience and other new info suddenly appeared but above all, he finally got something which he taught was impossible for him to ever possess. An ability, a skill, the one thing that everyone must have to survive

«Hello host, I’m Claudius your Tentadrone who is responsible for improving your ability as proposed by my creator.»

   Daniel heard a voice ring in his brain, in instantly used his hands to cover both of his ears due to the loudness of the voice but the volume seemed to remain the same

«Please, calm down, I am your Tentadrone and you should be free to ask me anything»

“What in heaven’s claw is this.” Daniel yelled in frustration since he found himself unable to get rid of the large voice

«I am your Tentadrone named Claudius, your guide to extreme power»

     Daniel stared at the darkness before him and heaved a sigh, he opened his mouth to utter a word right before he heard a word from Stella, his companion

“What is this crazy mission Kerala.”

   Stella seemed to have better understanding to the system than himself, he once again sighed in the darkness and muttered 

“Emm, how many mission did you actually propose.”

«Ha-ha host, you know what the mission means»

   Yeah, Daniel knew exactly knew what the tentadrone meant by kill a beast. Moreover, this mission looked like a cheat since it involved more than one almost impossible action. The first thing the tentadrone meant was to break out of this place into the forest and then risk his life to death.

«Correctly guessed master, but remember that days pass quickly, I suggest you find a way to accomplish the mission»

“Emm, Daniel what do you think we should do.” Stella’s shaking voice sounded in the room

“I don’t know, maybe we should bang the door loudly or scream.”

“Won’t they kill us in that case.”

“Nah, I don’t think they will do that without permission from the high lady.”

“That’s correct, but either ways she could order them to kill us and…” Stella paused at her words and heaved a sigh “What if she order for our death.”

“Then they will possibly take us to the forest where we can escape.” Daniel voice boomed with all his words, he instantly walked toward the wooden door and began to pound on it heavily while screaming his lung out

“Hey, stop that what if they throw us into the furnace.” Stella instantly stood up from the ground and ran toward Daniel who ignored her

“Who the heck is this.” The door immediately opened revealing a muscular tall man whose face was well painted with anger as he swung his mace in the air

“You two brat, I’m going to throw you into the furnace.”

  Daniel and Stella’s eyes widened upon hearing the last word of the man who immediately grabbed them both by the arm and violently began to push them both across the long corridor.

   Bang! Bang!

    Daniel and Stella fell on the thick glass floor of the room heavily

“Mistress, these two useless elf were banging on the pit door violently, and they deserve death for that to teach the other not to joke with us.” The man’s speech was loud and furious as he pointed his finger toward the two who stared at the ground with fear.

   Tap! Tap!

   The loud and slow footsteps of the mistress got closer toward Daniel and Stella who were too scared to look into her face. But for some unknown reason Daniel felt a chill run down his spine, he was the cause of this and knew the consequences but he never knew what it actually was going to feel like

“Hum, raise your head little pests.” The loud and screeching voice of the mistress filled the room forcing Daniel and Stella to immediately raise their head toward her, it was like an invisible force pushed their head toward hers even when they did not want to, and this invisible force was known as ‘Fear’

“You little pest, slaves, how dare you disturb the peace of my loyal brother.” Once again her screeching voice echoed, her disfigured face of fire burns were coated with a scornful look while her tall figure made her look like a giant but her long pointy ears made it know that she was an elf

“I-We a-are s-o…”

“Don’t you ever in your elfin life stammer when talking to me you idiot.” Her violently interruption gave a deadly chill run down Daniel’s spine, his eyes were still locked with that of the mistress even when he desperately wanted to distract the eye contact due to the tears which rapidly gathered in his eyes, but he could not, it looked like something was stopping his eyes from moving away

“You may continue, stupid.”

    Daniel could not hold the tears in his eyes any longer letting everything flow down freely

“Hum, you are crying eh, I’m just thinking on which death will be conformable for you both.”
