The Forsaken Monarch

Draken entered the chamber of the last enemy.The enemy sat directly opposite him.He wielded a great sword.Even a normal hunter could sense that this sword was dangerous.This enemy was Fenrith, the Last Throne Holder. Fenrith was a warrior who had been protecting this throne since he took over.Fenrith was a mythological legend.As soon as Draken saw Fenrith, he opened his inventory and bought himself a magical sword and a power potion with his level points.

"The enemy's strength is greater than yours, you are unlikely to defeat him, I do not advise you to enter this battle," came a voice from the inventory.

"I have come this far, I will keep my promise to Dimitri and the others, I, Draken Nightfall, am here to take Fenrith's life!" said Draken in an excited voice.

Fenrith stood up as soon as he saw Draken and sheathed her sword, Draken had his sword and potion of power ready.

"COME ON, YOU SON OF A BITCH FENRITH!" said Draken in a psychopathic voice.

Fenrith made the first attack, Draken was unable to stop it and was badly wounded:

"Now I see why you're a legend. Even if you're not what you were, you're still powerful."

Draken got to his feet and tried to heal himself, but Fenrith made another attack, closing in on Draken, swinging his sword.This time Draken stopped the attack, kicked Fenrith, and Fenrith was knocked away.Fenrith was thrown far away.He was surprised.This was the first time he had ever faced such an agile and powerful opponent.Meanwhile Draken attacked, running at full speed, dodging Fenrith's magic attacks, and getting in close.Fenrith managed to swing his sword even from this angle, but Draken dodged this attack too, reflexively using his fist instead of his sword.Fenrith was thrown backwards.This room had been turned into a fighting arena.Draken muttered to himself:

"Fuck, he's too strong even as he is, I have to rely on the odds to win now, I have to think fast and think well."

This time Fenrith and Draken attacked at the same time, attacking each other at a speed that could not be seen.They were so fast that the room was starting to shake and fall apart.They were both dodging each other's attacks.But suddenly Fenrith saw Draken's vulnerability and swung his sword.The sword pierced Draken's abdomen.But Draken laughed:

"You think I didn't think of that?"

Draken drank the potion of power and kicked Fenrith, Fenrith drew back, but his sword was still in Draken's stomach, Draken laughed:

"It's a beautiful sword, and a terrible sword at the same time, you don't deserve it, SHITTY THRONE GUARDIAN!!!"

Fenrith got into a punching position.Draken pulled the sword out of his stomach and put it down.The end of this fight would now be decided by a clash of fists.Fenrith and Draken attacked each other at the same time, both very fast and agile.Draken said to himself:

"FUCK, I've got to do something, I can't beat him the way I am now, FUCK, FUCK!"

Fenrith stepped forward for a moment, and started throwing punch after punch at Draken, but Draken couldn't take them. The punches were like steel. Fenrith threw so many punches that Draken fell to the ground. Fenrith picked up his sword to finish Draken off. He closed in on him.

"Shit, I can't die here, I've got you fooled, you bitch, IGNAROK GET OUT!!!" shouted Draken.

Ignarok appeared, and began to attack Fenrith.Fenrith was only able to deflect some of Ignarok's attacks.Ignarok did great damage to Fenrith with his fireball.Fenrith retreated, but heard a cold voice behind him:

"It's over, Fenrith." said the Draken.

With his blade in his hand, he pierced Fenrith's iron helmet, then used the potion of power.Fenrith tried to fight back, but he had no strength left.It was Draken who survived the battle.Draken looked at Fenrith's dead form:

"You need no longer guard the throne, Fenrith. You can sleep in peace."

Draken moved closer to Ignarok and stroked his head.

"If it weren't for you, I'd be dead by now. Thank you for seeing me, Ignarok."

And the exit door opened, Draken walked through it, and exited just past the train station.

"Take it easy today, training programmes start tomorrow," came a voice from the inventory.

Draken made his way to his house, and just as he was about to step in, he fainted from exhaustion. When he opened his eyes, he was in his own house, and his mother had fallen asleep waiting for him.

'It was all like a dream, but now I need to rest, and from tomorrow onwards I'll have to level up.'

Draken went to sleep. He was exhausted from the hard day. Hours passed. Draken woke up. He got up, got dressed, brushed his teeth and went down the stairs. His father was reading a novel as usual and his mother was cooking:

'After seeing the faces of all those creatures, it's a relief to see my family.'

The whole family sat down at the table. They ate. Draken got everything ready and left the house. He headed for the headquarters. When he arrived at the headquarters, Dimitri and his group were waiting for him. Dimitri saw Draken coming and came up to him.

'Son, you worried us a lot. I won't forgive you if you do something like that again,' Dimitri said.

Lydia said softly:

'I hope you're all right, Draken. We were so worried about you yesterday. I was worried too. Don't leave us in this situation, please.'

Draken looked at the group:

'I went in there alone for the good of all of you, and I won. I did it because I was thinking of all of you. Please understand.'

Draken then took Lydia and Dimitri aside:

'You two are the only ones who know about my awakening, so please don't tell anyone about it. We might attract the attention of the higher ranks and enemies.'

Lydia and Dimitri promised not to tell anyone about it, and Draken said he trusted them, but Draken had one thing on his mind: If the normal dungeon had such formidable opponents, what kind of enemies would the red ones have? Dimitri, approaching Draken:

"Son, we will not enter the dungeon today, we will mourn for our fallen friend, go home for the day."

Draken went home without saying anything, he went into his room, opened the Inventory, the daily training programmes were ready as instructed, Draken spoke to himself:

"OK, then. Here we go!"

The daily training programmes were as follows:

1.10 Km Run

2.100 push ups

3.100 sit ups

"This is pretty tough stuff, but if I want to level up and fight better, I have to endure it" Draken said.

Draken's real journey and challenges were just beginning, what challenges awaited him?
