[Chrono"s cane(DAMAGED)Description: After the war with his sons and daughter, Chrono implore his brothers, the 100 hundred hands cyclops, to build him a cane because he damaged his leg. One of his brothers, Leterio, took pity of him and make him this cane. This cane contains the essence of Chrono; however, it is damaged due to the pa.s.sage of time. Right now, this cane only has the property to "freeze" the time of the leg, so the injury couldn"t spread forward to the rest of the body and can alleviate the pain that It causes.
Price: 100 Drachmas
Remark: this cane can be repaired]
Alfonso went in deep thought when he read this information, he was at first stupefied, this cane actually belonged to the t.i.tan Chrono! He was Zeus"s father, the one that, for some time, was the lord of all things!
"The state of the cane is damaged, but, this remark.... It can be repaired? How?" Asked Alfonso.
[Host doesn"t have the authority to possess this information.
Please, complete the missions and when the requirements are successfully achieved,
The system will inform host.] Said the robotic voice of the system.
Alfonso wanted to ask more, however, he felt that the system will give him the same answer.
The cane was black and had a golden handle, when Alfonso used it, he couldn"t feel the pain that he always had when he walks, this pain was minimal, so he usually didn"t make any complaint nor one could feel nothing. Wrong when he walked, however, an injury is an injury after all.
"Well, the effect is already good enough" Thought Alfonso.
After changing canes, he looked at Artemis who was looking the cane, he was wondering why was that, went she suddenly looked at Alfonso.
"Whatever that thing is, be careful to not used it in front of father, else, he will kill you" said Artemis and ignoring Alfonso.
Alfonso was taken back by this statement, but after thinking a little, he realized. Chrono was the archenemy of Zeus, although he was his father, he was planning to eat Zeus if Rea didn"t interfere, maybe Zeus and the other G.o.ds would have ended in Chrono "s stomach.
"Better be careful of it in the future" Though Alfonso.
Later that day, Alfonso gave the new weapons to the soldiers who cheerfully accept them, of course, they asked about the origin however, Alfonso evaded the question and went back.
Just like this two weeks went by.
Alfonso began to get used to his life here, he went early in the morning with Deferio and inspect their training, after several days the soldiers began to change their lazy att.i.tude to a more serious one, Alfonso gave then a new "menu" of training, he gave them the ranger school method.
The ranger school method from the USA was the most extreme military training on earth, it was made to take the soldiers to their limits. At first, the soldiers were against it, however, after experiencing it for a few days, they get used to it, of course, after the day ended, they were so tired that they could barely walk to their homes; despite this, they were quite happy, because they could feel the changes in their body and their mental state
"We may have a chance" thought all the soldiers.
Alfonso was quite satisfied with the soldiers" att.i.tude, after he saw the soldiers practicing, he went to the agriculture to discussed the situation of the land, Camel was excited, he talked to the other ten families and all of them concluded that this method was the right one. Camel had 2 families to be in charge of the compost, he pa.s.sed the method that Alfonso gave them, like Camel, they asked where they should find the stool, however, a few moments later, 20 rabbits came from the forest and turn turns to defecate in a pit that they had specially prepared for this.
They asked Camel what the h.e.l.l was going on, however, Camel could only make a bitter smile, that was because he didn"t know either! He asked Alfonso sometimes, however, Alfonso always told him that he didn"t to care about that, so Camel didn"t insist.
At afternoon, Alfonso will talk with the situation in general to Ribeiro, who listen carefully. Ribeiro was so surprised of all the plans that his lord had, that he began to question if the person in front of him was really Alfonso Lockheart, the same idiot that let 900 something people to their deaths, the same person who lived in the shadows of his brothers and sisters.
"Maybe…. He did it on purpose? But why?, there was no point in a façade to begin with!" Thought Ribeiro.
After sending Ribeiro off, he has dinner with Artemis, who also get used to the live in Wasteland Valley. She wasn"t with Alfonso all day, she always wakes up earlier than Alfonso and go to the border between the town and the Jubila forest, there she practices with her new bow, she stays there practicing for 4 to 5 hours after that, she doesn"t live but stays there to talk to her "friends" the birds, little blue, little red and little black. Apparently, apart from Alfonso, she doesn"t like talking to humans. This was before 4 days ago when she meet Alfonso in the way to Camel"s house, she tagged along and Zeti, the oldest daughter of Camel, she was a pretty girl with brown hair , she was 40 years old and was pregnant, Artemis, at seeing her, make a beautiful smile then she walked in front of her and kneel, then she put her hand in the belly of the surprised Zeti and then she smiled satisfied and stood up.
"Is a healthy boy" She said.
Zeti, who didn"t know what to Said, just smile.
"It will be good, my late husband wanted that this little guy was a boy" Said Zeti, with a sad smile.
"Late husband?" Asked Artemis.
"My husband died a few months ago, he went to the Jubila forest to try to get some food, then he never came back" Said Zeti.
After that Alfonso offer his condolences and went to discuss with Camel about the future plans for the agriculture zone, meanwhile, Artemis was talking happily with Zeti, at first, she thought that this guy was trying to woo her, not only her but her father as well as her sisters, the only one who knew what was going on was Alfonso. Artemis wasn"t only the G.o.ddess of hunt, she was also the protector of pregnant women, Zeus gave her this duty after he granted the seven wishes that Artemis asked Zeus.
After they left, Artemis promise to bring more food for her and her baby, Zeti declined and told that Artemis that she wasn"t ready for another compromise, of course, she did as gently as possible, after all, Artemis was the lord"s friend! She couldn"t afford to offend him. Artemis just made a smile and told her that she just wanted the best for her baby, Zeti was still reluctant, however, she accepted in the end. Artemis went back and the next day, in the afternoon, she will join Alfonso and go to Camel"s house, she will talk to Zeti bring some rabbits for her to eat, Zeti was happy and saw in Artemis a friend.
Just like that, the day of the invasion was approaching, soon, before he noticed, Alfonso only had two days before the horde arrive to Wasteland Valley
