章節 6: TORRENTIAL RAIN

Around five in the morning Tylos woke up due to the busy noise that was taking place inside the cabin, however, he did not move a bit, from the position he was in, just by opening his eyes a little he could see that the elderly packed few belongings from the house while they were lit with some candles, the children seemed to be still asleep because I couldn't see them anywhere.

"I always wake up early to train, but it's just hard for me to suddenly stand in front of them, and even more so since they haven't called me, I guess I'll wait a while longer"

Soon drops of rain began to fall on the roof and as time passed, they intensified.

- We will not be able to leave with this rain, soon they will arrive

- Calm down Sofia, we'll wait for the rain to stop

- Our time is up, call the children and the boy

- What's wrong ma'am?... I'm sorry, I couldn't help but listen to them while they were talking

- Hopefully this village will withstand one more attack

The old woman replied as she grabbed her head and looked at the old man.

- Grandma wants us to leave, that's why we called you, will you come with us?

- Surely, they could see it when they arrived, traces of combat, hungry people, long and pale faces, everything has changed since that hole emerged near the village.

- Hole?

- Yes, young Tylos, do you fight with those monsters and you don't know where they come from?

- Sorry, I've never seen such a large amount.

- They really are few, the hordes that lurk within the cracks are the greatest horror that can exist, is what I have heard about those who have dared to venture into those places.

- I never thought that there would be one of these aberrations near my home, perhaps that explains why we found those beasts in the forest.

- Come with us young Tylos, there are many intrigues about you that I would like you to help me solve, but first of all Robert, we have to go, bring my horse and the other cart, we will leave like this.

From behind the cabin Robert pulled out another wagon a little smaller than the one they had arrived in, however, this one, like the other one, was pulled by two horses, for Tylos he supposed that it would be faster to travel there.

- Okay ma'am, I'll travel with you, anyway, nothing ties me to this place and I don't know other people here apart from you.

They all got into the wagon in silence while it seemed that it hadn't stopped raining, only Robert, when he got on and took the reins, was already soaked in water, and they started walking.

As soon as they got down from where the cabin was, they could see smoke coming from the conglomerate of houses in the village.

"So, it's already started," Robert commented as he headed for the south gate, clearly planning for them to escape in the chaos.

Soon the south gate of the village could be seen when the cart jumped into the air, they were rock monsters, round and with spikes, when the wheels fell, they were damaged, all thrashed on the ground looked up, and for his Surprise Tylos had jumped and was between them and the spike balls.

"I'll get rid of them, but we have to go back, this is just beginning" four spiked balls in total began to roll towards him and jumped, but just one movement was enough to split them in half, blood dripping from the crosshead.

The old men took the children and got on the horses, suddenly screams were heard from where the smoke came from.

"Run, towards the center of the village, I will go ahead"

As if it had been a fog, it disappeared, while the elderly and children headed towards the center of the village where a church was located, they could see how people were running and those who were not simply being devoured by creatures of different sizes, were visible the round monsters with spikes, these opened a grotesque mouth from which fangs that tore the flesh came out, accompanied by these were other monsters like the ones they had seen before in the forest, the children only closed their eyes so as not to see the barbarism that was happening while they rode at full speed.

Loud noises and flashes of light came from the direction they were going, when they managed to make out how a crowd was entering through the doors of the chapel while Tylos would have passed them fighting against the beasts, when he caught sight of them, he yelled "quickly So I can't contain them."

They quickly entered the church.

There they only saw a discouraging panorama, wounded dying in poor condition were visible everywhere, others guarded the windows with rudimentary tools joined by a few guards who had managed to survive.

- Colt, it's good that you're still standing, what happened? I didn't hear the warning bell.

- Robert, Madam, when we could see them, they were already on us, it seems that the guardian of the bell died before being able to climb.

Damn, how is it possible?

-But more importantly, who is that boy, he's incredible, he saved us all...

-He saved us in the forest, he's the one wearing the hood when I arrived that day.

- I understand, but enough talk, guards... let's help him, we can't let that boy do all the work, he shouldn't die here.

Little by little they were able to repel the monsters,

- We will get it

Colt yelled.

However, in the blink of an eye the situation began to worsen, larger and larger creatures kept coming and coming until they were pushed back to the chapel stairs, everyone seemed exhausted except Tylos, who continued to attack furiously towards the monsters.

It seemed that it was the end when a scream was heard deep in the forest, everyone fell and some fainted from the horrendous and sharp noise, soon the monsters began to retreat until there were none left.

Everyone was celebrating, some said "surely they did it, they finished off the big monster", "surely the crack has already disappeared".

- What do they mean?

- They refer to the group of adventurers who left today towards the crack, they said they came from the church or something like that, they left the morning before the attack.

- Fools, that's not the cry of a dying creature, it was calling the others... it's a trap, they are going to die, you have to go fast or it will be too late...
