A spark of light spark in front of Rhett, it sparked the more and then carrying a beige colour, big block letters appeared in front of him.
It was his stat:
NA- KING RHETT
RANK- DRAGON SLAYER
SLAYER HUB - level 1/10
[XP - 50]
{XP needed to next level: 400]
Abilities - [NONE FOR NOW]
Artifacts - [NONE FOR NOW]
Rhett squinted an eye as he gazed at it. 'Damn', he thought. 'l've only gotten fifty XP points. I have to win more I guess, to enter the next level of my slayer hub and unlock more powers'.
The guards let Ash and the dragon slayers back into the stadium and they were very happy with Rhett, giving him a bow.
Rhett waved his hands. "What do we do now?", he asked.
"We go back m'lord", ca the reply from Ash.
"Goodbye dragon slayers", bood the voice from the speakers. "When you're needed to battle again you'll be summoned".
Rhett and the dragon slayers walked out of the stadium and got onto their horses, the carriage that brought Rhett to the stadium had already gone.
"Where are we off to now?", asked Ash to rhett.
Rhett smiled. "Let's not that be in a hurry to return back. You my assistant, hand of the king and my, what should I call the remaining of you dragon slayers?".
"Call us kingsguards", said one of the dragon slayers.
"Well", continued Rhett. "What are we called?".
"Dragon slayers", said Ash.
"Let's go slay so dragons and get powers", Rhett said gallantly, rasing his hands in the air.
"Sounds like a splendid idea my king", said Ash.
"Then off we go", roared Rhett, rasing his horse in the air and putting it on the road as they rode from the stadium.
The road, not surprisingly, was bare and barren. Pebbles, few rock and ants rested on the dry and parched road. The sky was dark and cloudless as usual and now it rumbled.
"Up ahead m'lord", said Ash. "Is the sword lands where is just filled with fallen and rusty swords from ancient battles. Then after that is the demon slayers village".
Rhett nodded in the affirmative, his hands on the ropes of his horse. He looked upwards, to the clouds and then sideways at tis, the world seeming oddly familiar to him.
"What about the beasts on earth?", Rhett asked Ash.
"They're still there. No one knows when they'll go, perhaps slayerious knows, well I don't".
The wind was rustling now and it seed to be playing a rhythmic tune as it did so, twirling and swirling in the air.
"Is the seer hearing our conversation?", Rhett asked.
"Probably not, I don't know. The Seer is almost like Slayerious but is only a ssenger, it is like a servant, working for slayerious. I bet they won't mind if we visit earth so tis, I've got so really cool friends there".
Rhett let out a brave smile. "Don't worry, soon we'll go back there again".
"I hope so".
They slowed the pace of their horses down into a prance, Rhett gazing up ahead if he could find any sign of life.
The area they were now was moist, that is the ground, not so dry and parched anymore. Rhett didn't know why but he could sniff scents of rain. Right from childhood, he had always known the coming of rain to carry a peculiar scent. A scent that he could always pick out. Now, he was slling that scent again and it felt more boosted and familiar than ever.
"I sll rain", Rhett said.
The dragon slayers smiled and exchanged glances, on their mouths signs of laughter.
"You're finally carrying so peculiarities of being a dragon slayer", Ash said.
"Whenever you sll a scent of rain, it's not really rain but sign of a dragon", added one of the dragon slayers.
"Hehe, look like we have a rain dragon coming", added another.
They all went into laughter, including Rhett who looked at the faces of them all, bemused.
"Get ready your swords then", said Rhett seriously. "Ti to slay a dragon. Pass a sword".
One of the dragon slayers threw him a sword which he caught and rolled it over his head, braced for battle. The whistling of the wind was getting fiercer now, twirling and twirling. The scent of rain was also getting more thicker.
"It's almost here", warned Ash. "Be prepared".
Rhett breathed heavily, he was scared in a way. That is, not knowing which type of dragon he'd face. He had wanted this but now that it was here, he felt intimated by the re thought.
A gust of wind dived right into their faces. Rhett shook his face while ash continued looking forward, not wanting to move it. "Let's form a circle", said Rhett. "Our faces facing forward. We don't know when the dragon will sprout and so we've got to be cautious".
The dragon slayers complied and did as he had instructed. They all forming a circle, their eyes narrowing imperatively. Rhett suddenly felt dazed, he shook his head to let it go and focused forward.
A loud whistle that pierced their ears did it, it startled and spooked them no matter how brave they tried to be. They heads swirled, trying to find where the noise was coming from when suddenly they heard it again. And now, they knew where it was coming from.
Up!
They all looked up in unison and saw two sets of massive white wings, flapping in the air, coming at them.
"Watch out", scread one of the kingsguards.
Rhett tilted his horse to the left, Ash scrambled his forward and imdiately, the circle was scattered. The dragon landed in the middle of where they had just left. It presence commanding, it gave out a loud cry and white flas escaped from it's mouth.
"It's a white fire breathing rain dragon!", scread one of the dragon slayers, coming off his horse, his sword in his hand, positioned to battle.
The dragon was still on the ground, flapping it's wings egregiously.
"We can slay it!", Rhett said. "We can!".
The dragon took to the skies, spreading it's wings and then unspreading it. It spinned in the skies and soon thrust itself forward, dashing at Rhett who didn't actually expect it. "M'lord watch out!", the dragon slayers cried unisonly.
It was too late, the dragon had already dived into Rhett, taking him off his horse.
