Coming Back To Save The World 1 Ancient Ruins

"Are you okay?" "You feel bad?" Suddenly he heard those two voices that made him react.

"I'm fine." He answered with a slight smile. "I was just remembering the good old days"

It is true, that perfect life that he wanted, suddenly vanished that day, the day that humanity knew the extinction, the day that science proved to be inferior and science fiction proved to be real. Fifteen years had pa.s.sed since the known world ceased to exist and creatures such as dragons, fairies, demons and mythological beasts appeared in the world.

"How long is it until we arrive?" Mark asked when he saw the person behind him.

"If we continue at this speed we will arrive in about 4 hours," Jasmin said. "Do you really think it will work?" "I do not know," Qiang Shen replied, "but it's the last hope we have ... it has to work!"

Some time later, as they continued to advance, they began to feel small earthquakes. "Ready!" Mark shouted.

In that, they saw how the impact of a nearby building was heard and from there came a creature similar to a lizard with scales and its back lit with a crimson fire.

"A fire salamander!" Jasmine shouted "but that's impossible, it's supposed that in this area there should not be any monster, this is the area of ..." when Jasmine was going to continue talking, she saw a figure that appeared behind the salamander.

"Pathetic humans, to think that you would dare to trespa.s.s my domains, let this Matariel end his pathetic lives" A man with black wings appeared suddenly behind the fire salamander: a fallen angel

"Mark!" Qiang Shen shouted as if he were giving Mark an instruction, then Mark took out five dorges(1) and began to execute a Buddhist enchantment, then the dorges flew in different directions forming a pentagram creating a sacred field.

"Ready, sacred area summoned, Jasmine is your turn," Mark yelled.

"Pactum est infinita animum meum vocationi obtemperaret iidemque c.u.m consensu hindered me (2) ... Kanki!"

When he finished saying the incantation, a whirlwind of water appeared in front of Jasmine. When it dissipated, a humanoid, a bluish-looking woman with deep blue patterns, with wings similar to those of an angel, long white hair and what looked like antennae that came out of her forehead. "Kanki, please" as if I were giving her a telepathic order, the creature summoned by Jasmine started flying towards the fire salamander.

"Jaz, you and Mark take charge of the salamander, I will fight against that fallen angel". "Remember that you should not use any magic power," says Mark. At that time Qiang Shen began to circulate his sword energy from his Dantian and began to materialize a sword, then Qiang Shen jumped towards Matariel and tried to eliminate him but he dodged it and attacked him with a magic ray of light that Qiang Shen evaded with a jump back. He is surprised to realize that, although he reached Master's level, Matariel had almost the same level as him, so when he decided to use one of his sword techniques, Jasmine and Mark finished eliminating the salamander and began to face the fallen Angel. After they manage to seriously injure him, Qiang Shen uses his sword skill and eliminates it.

"We have lost too much time, we must be close," Mark said as he looked at the sky and continued his journey.

An hour later they reached their goal, the ruins of an ancient city called Teotihuacan within the country that was formerly called Mexico, when they were in the largest pyramid, preparing the spell, Qiang Shen saw a spear heading towards the powerless avoid it, but when he waited for the spear to hit him, he felt nothing, looked up and saw Jasmine crossed by the spear and behind it saw Matariel along with several dragons and gargoyles.

"Jasmine" Qiang Shen shouted while holding her body "Resist... Mark!" when he yelled at Mark to help Jasmine, he saw that Mark was hurt and that he had already erected a sacred barrier "Quiang Shen ... you must achieve ... our goal ... you must achieve it ... Forgive me... for... no... can... go... with you... please look for me" said Jazmin as she died slowly "Quiang Shen, it's time, you must perform the spell!" Mark shouts "Forgive me for not being able to accompany you, remember to look for me in England when you return, I must be five years old, I would like to be with you again, goodbye ... aniki".

After saying goodbye, he used what remained of energy to maintain the barrier and not allow those monsters to approach, he saw the sky and the eclipse of the sun was already at its maximum, "it is strange, despite being a total eclipse, the Heaven is as red as it has been since that day, "Mark thought. Qiang Shen got up and stood on the tip of the pyramid and started with the enchantment

More black than night, more red than blood, more blue than the blue sky, king that you sleep under the sea of time, here I implore you, give me your power so that together with mine we deny the existence of the beings that manipulate us ... Breath of Time.

When he cast the spell his conscience began to fade away "the spell worked... year 2008... mom... dad... I'll be able to see you again..."

While thinking that, his conscience ended up disappearing.
