Rain Fighter chapter 2 -4
The rest of the day went by slowly, with some talk about their mission and about monsters in general. When the sun begun to set both Aladar and Ariadne went early to bed. They were so tired that they could not stand on their feet anymore.
But when the night had fallen another being woke up and begun following 2 scents, it was the devilish girl that had arrived at the village after the attacks. She was a Succubus. Succubi are beings that don't have their own life force so they need to constantly feed on living being in order to survive.
Her mission was to watch over the monster attack and make sure everything went according to plan. When she discovered the dead Minotaur she followed the scents of the 2 survivor all the way to the city, to kill them. No survivors that was the order. But her quest was interrupted when the sun rose, since she was a
creature of darkness the sun caused her constant pain, limiting her movement to the night and the shadows.
Now of course the sun had set again so she quickly followed their scents to the inn, where they were sleeping. She decided to visit first the Minotaur killer. So flew up to his window. He would be a very easy pray, she had simple to attack him while he was sleeping and drain all his life force.
She punched the window open and the loud noise woke Aladar immediately up, he stared directly into her face, shocked and surprised. Now all she had to do was to suck his life out of his body. But she hesitated for a moment and that short moment of hesitation gave Aladar a chance to jump towards his sword and grab it. Now the succubus was surprised by his quick actions and her own hesitation, she had never hesitated before so why now?
In her confusion she made the decision to fly away and return another night.

Rain Fighter chapter 2 -3
The Mayor begun explaining, that the town's army was small and that the numbers of monsters was increasing, so they needed help to fight off all the monsters but he also that there is an emergency plan for a situation like this. The big cities in the North had much larger armies than the small towns in the South.
The Mayor continued by saying that they will create a small group that will travel North for help and maybe also find out why these attacks are happening. Furthermore the Mayor told them that he wants both Aladar and Ariadne on that group, Ariadne had proven many times in the past that she is a skillful fighter so she will be a good asset for thee group and Aladar had defeated a Minotaur monster on his own.
Both of them agreed being in the group. While both were still shocked from their experience they new that had to stop these attacks before everything gets worse. The best way to accomplish that was by getting help from other cities. The journey would begin in 3 days that would give them some time, to mourn and to prepare.
After the conversation with the Mayor the priest invited Aladar and Ariadne to the Temple of Persephone to pray for the souls of those who had died in the monster attacks. They gladly agreed and followed the priest.

Rain Fighter chapter 2 -2
The breakfast was delicious, but Aladar had difficulties eating it, he felt like a giant stone was sitting inside him. So he ate slowly. It took him a while to finish eating but eventually he did.
He took a deep breath and left the inn to visit the mayor. The town of Destofia was big, with many big roads and some smaller road, most of them were full of people doing in hurry to do their daily activities. There were also many street merchant selling their goods to people walking by. Like fruits and vegetables or household items. If someone didn't know the city well, hat person could easily get lost. But Aladar had been here many times before, so it was not difficult for him to find his way the town's hall, where the mayor office was.
He showed the guards the letter in which the mayor requested his presence and they let him in. The mayor greeted him once he walked in. Aladar noticed that Ariadne was already there talking to the mayor, she looked tired as if she had not slept much. She greeted him as well and she was happy to see him and Aladar greeted them as well.
Then the mayor explained to Aladar, that Ariadne had told him about the events of the previous night, how he defeated, one of the Minotaur monsters and how he helped Ariadne to escape the remaining monsters. The Mayor was clearly impressed.
Aladar explained him, that he was not entirely sure how he defeated the Monster, he told him that he felt out of nowhere his strength to increase as well as his agility and speed. He always felt somewhat stronger and more awake when he was outside in the rain but never like this before.
At the moment a priest walked into the mayor's office, he greeted them and then he spoke, telling them that Aladar might have been chosen by the goddess Persephone to protect them from the new rising of the negative life beings. This confused Aladar, why would he be chosen by the goddess. But the priest told him he should not question the will of the goddess because she has her reasons.
The Mayor spoke again, saying at the moment it didn't matter why, what was important at the time was that Aladar killed a monster on his own without any help, something no one else had done before. Ariadne nodded in agreement. So Aladar wanted to know if they had any plans...

Rain Fighter chapter 2 -1
After Aladar and Ariadne arrived at the town of Destofia the guards let them in. They explained to the guards what had happened in Kazarium and they learned from the guards that this was not an isolated incident, multiple villages had been attacked by monsters, usually by Minotaur monsters, but also sometimes living skeletons, in the last 3 days. They had already sent a soldiers to defend the villages but they all disappeared without trace.
They were both shocked to learn this and started crying. So many people had died, so many friends lost never to be seeing again, this was a horrible situation, where did the monsters come from? Nobody had seen monsters since the end of thee great war 400 years ago. Ariadne prayed in tears to their goddess Persephone.
The guards after a brief conversation with the city's Mayor, took them to an inn, where they were given rooms to stay for free and rest for remaining night.
The next day Aladar woke up at late midday, it was difficult for him to fall asleep, after all that had happened. But eventually he managed to get some sleep. Now he was feeling hungry and while he still also felt very sleepy his hunger was bigger, so he got dressed and left his room and went downstairs to the dinning room to see if he could get some food. While on his way down, he wondered if Ariadne had also awaken, she was also very shocked like he was.
When he arrived in the dinning room, it was almost empty, only 2 tables were occupied. A waitress approached him, told him to sit at an empty table and she would bring him breakfast. Aladar did as he was told, he felt very sad and at loss, he was not sure what he should do next.
A few minutes later the waitress came with the food and also informed him that the mayor wanted to speak with him, once he had finished eating.

Rain Fighter chapter 1 -4
After they escaped into the forest Aladar and Ariadne, kept running together for several minutes, until they reached an area without trees inside the forest. They stopped running in order to catch their the breaths.
The rain had stopped a while ago and it was quite very quite, no animals could be heard, or any monsters. They hoped they were safe for now and that no monster was quietly approaching them. Ariadne was thinking where Aladar's great strength came from, but now was not the time for questions. So suggested to Aladar to head to the town of Destofia, which was not very far away. Aladar agreed with her, so they started walking towards Destofia.
Thankfully Aladar knew this Forest very well and and Hour later they arrived at the town gates of Destofia.
Back at the destroyed village of Kazarium, A read headed girl with bat wings and a red tail arrives flying and lands on the ground...

Rain Fighter Chapter 1 -3
Aladar had defeated this strange monster somehow, but he could hear more monsters moving closer to him and he knew could not be able to defeat them now that he had no sword.
But had to find out if there were any other survivors without getting himself killed. At that moment he heard a woman screaming for help.
Soon afterwards he saw a woman running towards him trying to escape another of these monsters. It was Ariadne the village Leader. She was terrified. Aladar run towards her in order to help her, but soon he realized that now they were both surrounded by monsters. It seamed that the monsters had killed everyone else and now they all moved towards the last 2 survivors.
Aladar was scared and so was Ariadne, but he also still felt empowered for some reason. He was convinced he could outrun the monsters but how would he save Ariadne?
After a moment, a crazy idea came to his mind and he asked asked Ariadne to piggyback ride him. Ariadne hesitated for a moment but after Aladar insisted, she climbed on his back and Aladar started to run.
Even with Ariadne on his back, he could run very fast escaping all the monster that tried to attack them. Aladar kept running until they were deep in the forest far from the monsters.

Rain Fighter Chapter 1 -2
Aladar tried to look out of his windows but he could not see much, only several shadows running in all directions. So he took his sword and run out of his house and the first thing he saw were several dead people that were now lying on the ground, but before he could react, he saw a huge figure in front of him. As this figure approached him, Aladar started to shake in fear, the figure in front of him looked like a huge bull that was walking on two legs like a human and holding a big ax in his hands.Aladar thought to himself that there was no way he could defeat this monster. But for some reason at that moment, he felt like his entire body was getting empowered with energy and in his mind he had a clear strategy on how to defeat this creature and so he attacked. The beast blocked the first attack with his ax and Aladar had to jump backwards quickly. The beast moved towards him and attacked Aladar with it's weapon. Aladar managed to avoid the attack by falling low on the ground, but now the monster was unguarded and Aladar quickly jump back on his feet and before the monster could react, he pushed his sword into the stomach of the beast. The beast was now dying and bleeding black blood that melted Aladar's sword. Then the beast fell dead on the ground.
