Harem Reborn

The group of ten men plus Herman loaded into the wagons and we started to move. Herman was still telling me about the other things that had changed since the world broke and Gialazsaur crawled up from the depths. 

"They are attracted to steel and other types of metal, but not all, we think, but no one really knows. All places and cities that weren't completely destroyed by the breaking of the world were devoured by the Gialazsaur. They eat hard metals and soft bio-organisms and restore life to the planet. It's almost like they are trying to wipe us from the planet and all traces of us," Herman explained as I walked beside the wagon, or I ordered my golem too.

"So, what can you do to stop them? Did you ever find out what was done there in the first place? Like were they drilled down?" I asked, looking at him with one of my eyestalks while my main I focused ahead and my others watched the surrounding area.

"Stop them? I don't know if we can, there are very few that could match one of them, and when a big one comes to a settlement, all they can do is run. We destroyed their home in our greed, and now we are paying for it. Little did we know. There was a whole other world down there, but now it's all underwater. Do you think we even deserve to keep going on? We did this and now they are fighting back."

Looking at it from this perspective, then yes, it was hard to decide if humanity deserved it. That made me think about people like Reginold, and Mr. Datum, they were the reason why I decided to leave the real world. What they did is nothing like this, but it did make me think about it.

There were too many people like that in the world, people that would give everything just for their own ambitions and greed. Now I was stuck in a loop after trying to correct the wrong that Reginold had done, with him still in there trying to...do what I didn't know. Was he trying to end the game somehow? Or maybe he is trying to subvert my control over the systems and Reborn?

I knew that I was the Admin for Reborn, now, but did that mean he was trying to take over my spot as admin? That would give him access to everything in the game, including control of the players. That was more than worry some thought and if that was the case, all of us beating him to the end was essential. 

That's when I saw it, a Gialazsaur. It was still pretty far away, but I could see something that looked like a massive box-shaped lizard, and it was weaving through the trees. I wasn't going to rush it, but I directed the golem to start angling towards the thing.

"We got trouble coming, but I will take care of it, keep the caravan moving no matter what," I said to Herman who gave me the thumbs-up sign and a toothy grin that I caught as I ran by.

The approaching beast was three meters tall and was a monster but all rights. The body was sectioned off in massive squares, connected but a glowing purple light. Each section of the body was a white block with teal tiger stripes, and the head was a triangle with flat teeth like a metal crusher.contemporary romance

I told my golem to attack when the Gialazsaur was fifty meters away from us, and we headed straight at the massive bouncing creature. When it was in range, I fired a death ray at the beast, but the ray bet around the thing without even touching it. What the hell?

The golem crashed into the behemoth and both of us were stopped dead in our tracks. I hit it solidly in the head with a right uppercut, but when the golem went for the left jab, the Gialazsaur bite the handoff. I was stunned but I regained myself and got it with a right hook, and then a knee to the head that cracked it open to spill gouts of purple glowing blood onto the ground.

My hand had reformed, and I jogged back to the group, but now two more were coming from the other direction. They looked the same, but the colors were different. One was orange and pink, while the other one was black and white. I wondered if the colors meant anything, but I didn't have time to ask as I ran by the front of the moving wagon train.

Herman was giving me more thumbs up with a face-splitting smile as I passed, and that made me chuckle to myself. The next two were getting closer, but now I knew how to kill them faster. 

I ordered the golems to form their arms into blades and then to attack the oncoming threats. They were almost on me now, but I had my weapons ready this time. If my rays wouldn't work, then I would just have to use what I had. 

I cut through them both and watched as they bleed out, and then died...but didn't explode into black bits. The things were also bleeding.

'Hey, what's going on here?'

But there was no answer, and I tried calling out to Tequila and Dansei multiple times, but there was no answer. Now I was really freaked out, normally it was easy to tell the difference between the game and real, but the lines were really starting to blur here. 

Why were they gone? Another thing was that these did not come back to life under my control, and my beams had no effect on them at all. I had to be still in the game, but there was only blood on the Zodiac worlds, so what did that mean.

For the first time in a very long time, I was alone.
