Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

"But-UGH DAMN IT!" Cole growled as he charged forward and slashed at the bandit who tried to parry but Cole was younger, and faster than him it only took a few moments for Cole to shove his sword through the man's torso causing him to fall to the ground clutching at his wound. While Fer worked to cover him Cole was quickly able to dance from one side of the cave to the other his sword dully gleaming in the fire's light he cut down the remaining bandits with sufficient ease as Marcino entered the cave himself. He looked at the bandits who had given up, and sighed. "More work I guess..." he grumbled as he moved to put manacles to their hand, and whistled into Auriel who came in and was told to watch the bandits who sat there silently but be it knowledge of who the man who had chained them was or not they seemed very uneasy with good reason as the blood of their fallen comrades poured onto the cave's floor. Cole looked at his blood stained armor. Not a drop of it was his own thanks to Fer. He felt sick to his stomach...having killed people like this. It would've made him vomit if not for the simple fact these were people who enjoyed burning down simple farmer's lives. Crops took ages to grow and there was a literal apocalypse around the corner.

As Cole looked to Marcino he pointed towards the back of the cave, and a crudely made wooden door sat placed in an opening. Cole nodded figuring that was the location they needed to go. Cole stepped forward and led the way as he had to use some effort to get the door to actually open as it was wedged in rather well to the narrow cave opening. Taking a deep breath he braced himself to fight the enemy in front of them the boss...Rayla Winters...

As Cole led the way he slowly started to feel more and more constrained as the smoke from torches that led the way was making it harder to breath for him though it was probably less so for the shield who had defensive buffs. Made Cole a bit jealous of that utility. Still Cole couldn't help but feel relieved when Fer, and himself finally reached their destination as they heard the sound of hands clapping they looked up to find a young lady with a smug smile looking down at them with a giant sword laying on her lap, and some what looked to be iron armor adorning her body. She spoke clearly and loudly. "So then you come all this way during the end of the world to fight a foreign national instead of learning to save the day. I see you're rather well bloody...and yet you don't seem tired. Well I suppose the heroes of the world wouldn't be too interested in the lives of individual bandits. Whatever are you going to state your names or are you just here do to business?" the woman said growing more disdainful as she spoke. "My name is Cole! I am the Hero of the Sword! I will give you the chance to surrender or you'll be killed for your crimes against the common folk." Cole started as the woman sighed. "Oh yeah like that wouldn't happen if I wasn't ready to surrender. Whatever Rayla Winters former 'The Crimson Witch of Zeltoble' at your service." Ratyla comments boredly looking down to Cole having seemed to lost all interest in Fer.

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

I'll try to post tomorrow if I can.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

"So our objective is training?" comments Darbin simply as he takes a deep breath everyone complaining was just starting to get grating on his nerves. It was the end of the universe and these children couldn't stop for one moment to actually have a round table talk about their objective going forward because of a few words. Darbin was use to heavy gravity having fought on a number of worlds where his people tried to subjugate beings of strong physical stature. However he wasn't foolish enough to think that a time travelling god would not have fighters above him on an number of levels. He considered if it would be worth it and gave his few words when considering the situation. "I don't mind but gravity should be set on a setting most comfortable with those training. Hurting, or straining ourselves without medical help would be the end of our little merry band."

As Fer managed to separate the two Cole moved in quickly and swiped his sword in a broad arc cutting through the armored plate on the chest of the bandit and felling him with the blow. Cole felt the blood splash on his cheek from the attack but he pulled back and readied himself all the same as he rushed over, and pushed the other bandit over once Fer had managed to knock him off balance with his shield bash. Cole went to strike at him but he got his sword blocked by the enemy's own blade he had chosen to use as his weapon. "I don't care if your heroes if I don't kill you the boss will!" the bandit shouted as he kicked Cole in his knee which had little effect due to his armor. Cole proceeded then to kick him in the gut, and then the face. The bandits who weren't focused on Cole started to go and focus on the shield seemingly drawn to him as to try and get to Cole's flank.

Cole heard the swords bang off of Fer's shield and went to strike at the bandits with another meteor strike which this time was off the mark smashing into the cave wall but it bought them both time. The bandits moved backward as Cole turned back to slash the fingers off of the bandit he had kicked on the face as he had gone back for his weapon leaving him writhing on the ground in pain. The other bandits huddled together, and stared down the sword, and shield heroes. "Ugh! Shouldn't you fucking do-gooders be off saving the world!? Why are farm raiders being dealt with by actual living legends huh!? Or is this the king punching down at the people he's supposedly protecting!?" growled the bandit as Cole spit on the floor. "Honest folk don't burn down innocent peoples' farms you bastards"!

Alright I'll try to get out a post tomorrow, or Wednesday.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

With all due respect I'll politely decline. Mostly because I've become burnt out on being a gm, and having to write up big posts. I'm doing it for shield hero on the so often but its not something I look forward to doing.

Dragon Ball: Shattered Worlds

"I'd rather we try to repair our damage equipment than train with faulty, or damaged systems it could lead to a total breakdown and render our already small amount of resources even further. This is a scenario where we can't afford to be careless as we all know. But I'd like a direction kais. What exactly should we be aiming to do? If the imprisoned one is our enemy perhaps we should find a universe known for strong survivors, and try to recruit them. If not then simply aiming for the lower rank, and file is our best bet. But I am not a leader of men for the most part. All I can do is offer suggestions." Darbin states as he considers this imprisoned one. Is it just rumors from the brain washed mongrels' of the enemy? Or was there something more to it. He wasn't sure, not was he entirely capable of thinking about possible scenarios without more information which he was very much lacking in due to the circumstances of their situation.

Rise of the Shield Hero - From Another World

As Cole prepared his sword in his hand he heard the distinctive call of a bird...but it was louder than expected, and for it being at night that could only mean that it was Marcino using a call as a sign he was going to make his move. Cole hunkered down for a moment, and as he took a breath suddenly three simultaneous arrows shout out from the opposite direction of them. All of them imbedding their pointed arrows into the heads, or necks of the enemy guards as they slumped over a magical aura around the arrows gave off the clue that they weren't normal shots. The bodies propelled by the force of the magical arrows fell away from the cave's entrance leaving them dead on the ground with only their feet being barely visible by Cole's perspective. Cole got up immediately, and motioned for Fer to follow him. Auriel said she'd take the rear line.

Cole advances not looking down at the enemies to preserve what he has of will power the blood gushing at his feet may as well be water for all the thought he gives it. Cole holds his sword, and as the swirling energy gathers around it he looks to Fer and tells him he's going to advance. Marcino appears shortly before he says so and moves to the entrance of the cave with Auriel. Cole advances into the Cave past the entrance to find a bunch of bandits eating dinner by the fire, about eight, and all of which seem to be none the wiser to the events that had transpired. "Surrender or die. You face The Heroes of the Sword, and shield. We will show you mercy in the name of the Kingdom if you throw down your weapons." comments Cole quickly as he sees the bandits look up in shock. One of them goes to shout before an arrow pierces his throat. At that two of the bandits immediately put their hands up in a surrender pose. The other five quickly move to attack Cole. Cole reacts quickly unleashing his attack. "METEOR STRIKE!" Cole says as the strike cuts down two of the remaining bandits. The survivors charge towards Cole who prepares to defend himself if Fer doesn't manage to get there in time.

"Long story or not Kais we should be aiming to either strengthen what warriors we have, or prepare to take on as weak a targets as we can get. Slowly work our way up to the snake's head as its clear we're insufficient with out current forces." comments Darbin as he looks to the kais he keeps his arms crossed. He speaks plainly, and without any intended arrogance as he looks back and forth at the group. "I sense a great amount of power within this group but we're still few, and numbers do make a difference. I've been to battles where smaller, and or weaker troops can outwit a greater threat by working with a valid strategy." Darbin says further as he starts to wonder where exactly these enemies would be weakest at...without sufficient intel they couldn't tell but in the end it would simply mean they'd need to gamble. "We can train, and ponder about the other kais, and the saiyans if we want but at the end of the day we have a duty to save the universe. And I am nothing more than a soldier. A blunt instrument I will do as told to an extent. I still will not throw away my life idly." Darbins says with his arms still crossed.
