My Dragon System Chapter 346 - Ghost Town

Chapter 346 - Ghost Town

The fight between Ray and Harry was finished and at the end of it, there was a clear winner. The white sash students felt a little disappointed seeing their teacher lose. They had thought he was invincible, someone to look up to and a goal to surpa.s.s. Yet a random stranger, one they had never heard off nor seen before, had come up and defeated him with ease.

"You are too strong for me now?" Harry said. "Looks like I really do need to go through the beasting process after all."

Ray had heard Harry's words and a.s.sumed Jack must have informed him off their plans. He didn't want to force anyone through the beasting process but he was sure that Harry would become a person who would grow immensely if they did.

"You are still more skilful than me with the sword, in the end, I realized that I would lose. I had to rely on my brute strength and the power of the sword to help me win." Ray explained, hoping to cheer Harry up.

"Those are your strengths as well, there are very few with the same strength like yours, and you must have done a lot to obtain a sword as good as that one," Harry replied.

Ray swung his sword again a few times in the air, it was indeed a good sword but it still didn't feel quite right in his hands. Something about the weight, or the shape, it just felt a little off to him. Still, it was one that he would use for now.

"It was pretty easy actually, I obtained this from a coward."

The two of them started to laugh and the students continued to just wonder who Ray was. After looking at all the students there, although they were strong and had a lot of energy, their powers still seemed too young. It would be a risk to take any of the children and expect them to go through the process. He could imagine the pain killing them or the beast power being too much for them.

"Alright you, off to our next destination," Ray said looking at Van and Flynn. "Oh Harry, report back to Sylvia at the end of the day, we will talk about the process together then."

"Where are we off to next sir, the Blue sash knight's area?" Flynn asked in a polite manner. After seeing how strong Ray was and him defeating a master knight, he started to show some respect to Ray.

"No, there is no need. If there was no one from the White sash area I doubt there would be anyone from the blue sash area. Although Dan might be interested but I doubt it. Unlike the others, he has no reason to grow his strength, he wasn't as close to the others. We shall head to the green sash knight area and end our journey there."

It seemed what Kyle had said originally was true Flynn thought. Ray knew nearly all of the master knights, perhaps he really was a student at the academy during the same time as them all. Maybe he left to go on a journey rather than stay with the rest and they respected him as a close friend. This was the only thing Flynn could think of.

While Ray walked off with the other two to the green sash area, Jack had some thinking to do of his own. He still had one of the King cla.s.s Harpies core and wanted to head to Raiden to check if there was anything he could make out of it. Right now he missed his large weapon more than anything. While thinking about his weapon it started to remind Jack of his hometown, a place called Zrey.

It wasn't a big city like the rest, but it was full of people and he hadn't been back ever since he left the town. It was only at the academy that Jack had discovered he was a werewolf and ever since he wanted to visit his hometown to ask his parents if they knew of such a thing.

The cla.s.s was dismissed for the day, they seemed to be too excited over what had just happened. If Harry tried teaching anything else they weren't going to listen to him anyway. As he walked over he noticed Jack was deep in thought, something he didn't do much.

"What's seems, to be getting you down big guy?" Harry asked.

"I was just thinking about home," Jack replied. "I haven't been there in a while."

"Ah right, you're from that town called Zrey right?"

"I'm surprised you would remember something so small."

"That's because I found it strange that's all," Harry said. "After seeing how strong you were I thought you must be some kind of mutant, and this was before I knew you were actually one. I thought maybe you were some super soldier or something, or you had a good set of genes. I wanted to see if your town raised any other good fighters. But every time I looked on a map to try to find it I couldn't see Zrey anywhere."

Jack started to laugh.

"You're making this sound like some type of ghost story, I know it exists, I came from there."

"I know, I just found it strange, I mean, the Alure kingdom have to doc.u.ment every city, town and village for tax reasons right, so then why wouldn't they put It on the map?"

Jack had never bothered to look at these things, he had never even looked at a map before because the only thing he cared about was fighting and getting stronger. But now that Harry had mentioned it, he started to think back. Whenever people would ask him where he was from Jack would always reply with Zrey and their reply would be that they hadn't heard of it and asked where it was.

Jack could only a.s.sume because it was a town not everyone had heard of it. Still, not a single person to this day said they knew about it. This would make sense if it was washed down village but Jack remembered it being quite a wealthy town.

There seemed to only be one person who knew more than Jack about his werewolf abilities and that was Lenny, he was also a very knowledgeable man and thought maybe he would know a thing or two.

"Maybe I should go pay a visit."
