YM778.TV Chapter 198: A Small Army
Not even the labyrinth triggered something of that sort, he supposed the conversation they had lit fire under his belly and he was hopeful.
It was just the same memory it was back then at the labyrinth of terror. His grandfather giving him the family necklace and telling him they were once a prestigious family. For the first time since he remembered, he pondered about those words.
Unlike back then, he could now understand what those words meant. But they didn\'t make sense as Kiro grew up poor as far as he remembered. Even his father grew up with nothing and he never heard stories from his father, no stories he told Kiro anyway.
The things he had to uncover seem to grow by the day. It was honestly exhausting for him at this point, as he just wanted to enjoy this lifetime. He was given a second chance after all.
Since they were sleeping outside with no means of shelter, the heat of the sun violently woke them up very early. Luckily they had water, so their characters wouldn\'t die of thirst. They didn\'t even bother with breakfast. They just walked on towards the movie theatre with zombies.
"Kel, take to the skies. Tell us anything unusual up ahead." Kiro commanded. \'You guys too.\' He added. He didn\'t mean to say it internally, he was just used to doing that with them.
Without complaint, he spread his wings and flew away. From up there, he couldn\'t see any movements. The town was truly dead.
"He can even fly like a bird? Can you get any more cooler?" Hiro said, with sparkles in his eyes.
Kiro lightly chuckled, "He\'s the cool one in this case!"
They walked for a while and Kiro noticed familiar buildings. \'How is this possible?\' he thought to himself.
"Is it just me or the buildings moved."
"What do you me—"
Hiro was interrupted by screeching from the skies, Kel swooped in and landed on Kiro\'s shoulder.
But because they were not that well bonded, Kiro couldn\'t understand his frantic pecking.
"You\'re headed the wrong direction. This is the direction we went yesterday." Gin came to the rescue.
Everyone froze in place as they heard a voice but didn\'t see where it was coming from. They quickly went into battle formation.
"Who, what?" Nikolai stammered.
"Relax, they\'re my uhm, ghosts in a way?"
He then explained to them what they were, how he found them and how they came over here with him, so he tamed them.
"There\'s no end to the amazing things you\'ve done is there." Felix scoffed.
"Stop being impressed. How\'s what they\'re saying possible? You mean the buildings can move?" Ishaan practically screamed the question.
Nobody paid him any mind though. Panicking wouldn\'t do them any good. Waiting for the spectres to explain.
"We went up ahead and saw the movie theatre, we have to take a right instead of a left. We do have to go back. I don\'t know how but the buildings seem to change their fixed positions." Ren explained.
"It is very strange. We don\'t sense that the buildings are sentient or possessed, they\'re very normal buildings." V chimed in.
Without complaint they walked back to where they came from. It was especially annoying because of how hot it was there, though Kiro didn\'t feel any difference. He was too used to the heat of the Underworld.
Hiro was lucky too, fire was his speciality after all. The rest were almost dragging their feet, they had walked a good distance and there was no means of transportation but their own two feet.
The weather change in the weather was sudden, it was a clear sky not a second ago but dark clouds were gathering fast.
Ding!

"Something is definitely coming!" Hiro complained.
They quickly went in formation and waited, they didn\'t have to wait too long, as they heard them before they saw them. A low sounding march, like wood getting thrown on the ground.
Then they saw them, bones that were black as night that was approaching them sooner, they seemed to be stuck together by glue. They made a great job making them look creepy but their eyes were comical to say they least.
They brandished all sorts of weapons. They didn\'t ask questions, as they started running towards with crazed looks on their faces.
Hiro put his shield in front of him, one of the skeletons went straight for it, exploding on impact.
The splinters from bones flew too close to Ishaan\'s eyes which made him panic and he instinctively activated his force shield.
"There\'s just no way you used that against level 40 monsters." Kiro scorned him.
"Instinct! It was purely instinct!"
Kiro groaned, he was about to attack but that was completely intercepted by his own comrade. He lightly used vibrations and broke out of the shield, he had Ryu and his fists and that was enough.
It took Ishaan but a second to get rid of the force shield but the damage Kiro had done was already impressive. He loosened up a little, and glided towards the enemies.
With his level and the sword Hiro had made for him, it took just a single strike to completely destroy his enemies. It wasn\'t fun, because every time they died, they somehow exploded.
Even though he had thick skin in-game, this still gave him a scare. He charged on nonetheless. He was starting to look like a warrior, so the rest of them stood back and watched him decimate a small army, an army nonetheless, alone.
