I looked closer into the dark, I tried to make out what was there, but it was like staring into an endless abyss, an endless abyss filled with monsters staring into my soul, I quickly looked at Pasha and said. "Pasha wake up!" Nothing, this guy could sleep in snoring so of course this guy is a heavy sleeper.
I quickly got up and walked over and pushed Pasha a little until he finally woke up. "Is it my turn to stand guard?" Pasha muttered with a tired expression while rubbing his eyes. "I think there is at least 1 monster in the dark somewhere, or it might be a wolf."
Pasha sat up and contimued to look at me with a tired expression, but he managed to ask. "So what should we do about it?"
"I will go and investigate the sound, you stay here and watch over and wake up the others if needed." Pasha gave a yawned, but nodded to my suggestion.
I picked up a torch with had and lit it up and then walked into the dark, I walked furthere away from the campfire and closer to where I heard the growl, I was scared, I was scared of what was hiding in the dark, but I had to continue forward.
I heard the sound of a slash in front of me and then, an orc fell down right in front of me with a voice asking me. "Are you a human?" As I moved a little forward the fire from my torch revealed a woman sitting on top of the fallen down orcs head.
"Of course I am human, what kingdom are you from?" I quickly asked.
"I am from the kingdom of Nitra, which one are you from?" She quickly asked with a curious look on her face.
"I am from the kingdom of Kalmar, and your name is?"
"The names Zora Oravec, and you are?"
"Nade Novikov." But after that we fell into a deafening silence, but I finally opened my mouth. "You also got the mission to kill 100 monsters right?" Zora gave a nod and continued with. "Does that mean all the summons also got the same mission?"
"Thats my best guess at least, but was that orc the only monster or do you know if there is more of them around?" my question quickly got answered with a orc appearing behind Zora.
The orc raised it's arm to hit Zora, but she quickly got out of the way. "Well, do you want to experiment with me and see if we both get credit for killing a monster if we work together?"
"Sure let's test it out." I quickly drew my sword and dashed to the side so me and Zora we on each side of the orc, the orc quickly turned to me and swang it's arm towards me, but I jumped up into the air to avoid it, Zora quickly stabbed the orc on it's back with her sword, I landed on the orc arm and got close enough to the orcs head and cut off it's head with it's body falling down with a loud thud.
The system quickly popped up wih a message saying 1/100 monsters slain. "It went up for me, what about you Zora?" Zora looked at her system and then at me and said. "Mine also went up, it say's 5/100 now."
"Also are you here alone, or do you just not have any subordinates." But as I finished my sentence the clouds finally cleared letting the moonlight through, I could finally get a good look at her, she had red hair that was just as red as mine with two pigtails, she was surprisingly tall, she looked almost as tall as I did, she had what I assumed the kingdom of Nitra uniform on as it did not resemble any clothes I have seen from this world.
Her expression lit up and she ran over and hugged me. "You also have red hair?! I thought I would be the only person in this world with dyed hair!" She continued to mutter things I couldn't hear until she finally pulled back.
"We are not that close yet." I looked at Zora who let go of me and pulled back. "Im assuming you don't have a camp here yet?"
Zora looked down twiddling her things and quietly said. "I don't know how to set one up and I came here alone.."
"You can sleep at my camp then, just don't try anything funny and then we can work together tomorrow to kill more mosters." Zora's expression lit up when I said it, but I didn't know if it was a good idea to trust her or not, but I felt kinda bad for her to be all alone out here.
"Follow me then." Zora quickly followed me as we went back to camp, I made sure there weren't any other monsters around while the moons light isn't covered by the clouds.
As me and Zora arrived back in camp I could see Pasha and Nyx were awake while the others were sleeping, Nyx looked at Zora and asked. "Who's the new one, she a friend from your world since you look the same age?"
"No, but she's also a summon and she doesn't have a camp so she will be staying here tonight and going monster hunting with us tomorrow."
Pasha stood up and went over to introduce himself and Zora quickly introduced herself back to Pasha and Nyx.
As they all went back to sleep and me having to share the makeshift bed I made with Pasha as Zora took Pasha's but the night quickly went over with Nyx watching over for the rest of the night.
***
The sun rose and we all got ready for monster killing, but since Nyx watch over us the entire night she was going to stay behind with Henry as it was only the summons who needed to kill monsters for the reward.
"When will the summon from the Lislit kingdom even come." Zora looked bored as we had to wait, but finally in the distance we could see the summon arrive.
