Another week passed, a week in which the group’s trainer, Ron, did not come, but they simply fought in Gregory’s new arena every day. This was even more effective training, because they could train magic and melee at the same time, and they had real enemies to kill, rather then training with a dummy or just bare air as an opponent.

“Good job! I see you guys killed ten tormented demons fairly easily, so let’s try thirty instead!”

As the thirty tormented demons appeared, the group, without a grimace, smile, snicker, or any other emotional remark, quickly and effectively attacked the tormented demons. Their skill had grown to the extent that even more timid fighters like Sarah had lost all fear or apprehension. She ran straight towards a tormented demon, and made a leap, climbing up its arms and straight onto its shoulders. Ignoring the flames coming up from it, she began slashing away at its head, casting water spells into its mouth every time it faced upwards.

Other fighters, like Martin, had another tactic. He charged a two-handed sword with a water spell, and then slashed super hard at the demon’s legs, making it fall down. Then he would place his knee on top of the sword, and put all his weight on it to slice a limb off.

It only took them about forty-five minutes to defeat all thirty demons, with none of them even slightly hurt.

“Well, what do you want to fight now?*

*Gregory, I kind of want to see you fight them yourself. I mean, you always summon them and let us fight. You aren’t doing any work yourself.”

“I’m not doing any work?!?! Do you have any idea how exhausting it is to summon all those creatures and then replenish your health and vitality? I use my own energy to revitalize you after each round.”

“Really? I had no idea. I want to see you fight anyway though.”

“Yeah! Fight for us!” called all the others.

“Very well, fine.”

Gregory walked down to the arena, everyone else walked up, and Gregory said, “I will summon two hundred tormented demons, but since only about one hundred fit in the arena at once, I will summon them as I go. Take mind, it is tiring for me to summon the demons, let alone fight them as well.”

He summoned them, and they all charged at him at once. Gregory took out a staff, and charged it very fast, and very powerfully. Just as the first demon was about to reach him, he slammed the bottom of the staff into the ground, and the ensuing shockwave sent each demon flying backwards. Gregory then drew a sword, and began his attack.

After less than thirty minutes, every last demon was utterly vanquished; all two hundred of them, and the arena was littered with bodies. Gregory, covered in demon blood and gore, dragged himself up the stairs, and slumped in his seat, too tired to even banish the bodies covering the floor. He. Was. Exhausted.

“Are you all right?”

“I hope you did*’t hurt yourself...”

“You shouldn’t have done so many demons.”

“Wow that was amazing.”

“How did you get all that power?!?!*

*Don’t worry about me,” Gregory finally said. “I’m just exhausted. That was the most demons I’ve ever made myself fight. Hahaha that was pretty dumb now that I think about it. If Lucien decided to attack right now, I’d be dead meat.”

“Indeed!” rumbled a voice. Very, very, very, well done! I must congratulate you!”

“Thank you Saradomin. What is the next step? Should we just continue training?”

“Yes, just continue training, but as a reward and present, I am going to give you two of my Godswords. These will help you greatly in the fight ahead, and will act as a magnifier of the power you put into them.”

Gregory’s fatigue seemed to disappear with excitement, and he jumped up, saying, “Thank you!!! This is amazing!! These will be very useful! Many, many thanks.”

“It is my pleasure, but I must be going now. I will see you soon.”

“Lord?”

“Lord Lucien?”

With a drawn-out sigh, he finally replied, “Yes captain? What news from our spies?”

“Sir, I do not have good news. Gregory has vanished. In most cases it is possible to find a clue of where a person has gone after they have moved into hiding, but in this case, there is none. All we know is that two months ago the east bank of Varrock was closed by a robed person, and then reopened by the bankers a few hours later. Other then that, he has utterly vanished. We really have not the slightest clue as to where he could have gone.”

“This makes NO sense! No person in the history of Runescape could possibly just VANISH like this! Have you checked in every town to see if there is a new citizen as of the time he left?

“Yes we have. We have sent spies inquiring in every city, every town, every village, always asking the same question. ‘Have you seen or heard of a new person living in or buying things from this town?’ We have asked that question all over Runescape, but have had no success.”

“He must be living independently then. That is the only way I can think of. He must be either obtaining his own provisions or have a trusted person in a town obtaining provisions for him. Very well captain. Continue on your mission, and if you have the slightest hint of his location, let me know.*

Lucien’s search was truly a dangerous enterprise. He knew that he must find Gregory, because as long as he was present he would be dangerous to Lucien’s plans. However, there was one thing Lucien did not reckon upon. Gregory’s power was STILL growing. Although he spent so much time with his group, helping them to train, he still spent many hours a day training himself. He was quite aware of the fact that Lucien was looking for him, and he wanted to be well prepared for Lucien when he came.

He was obtaining provisions for him and his group via the Grand Exchange, which was easy as no one could recognize him due to the massive number of adventurers that swarmed the area. He could easily blend into and hide in the crowd.

Gregory was actually becoming very excited about the extent of his power. With his newly-obtained godswords he was able to put a relatively small amount of power into the sword, and see it circulate quickly and magnify itself. The swords had their own power, and whenever he charged them this inner power manifested itself.

Gregory soon learned to use the swords as a second pair of hands. He could cast magic through the swords, and as the magic was magnified whenever cast through one of the godswords, he made it a habit to always use them. He simply wielded one in each hand, as his past swordfighting experience allowed him to wield them with a certain ease. As he was not quite strong enough to use them comfortably in this fashion, he used a small amount of magic to carry the weight of the weapons for him, as well as morphing some muscles for himself.

Ron was brought back to the underground training area to help in the skills of the entire group, including Gregory. This training situation was very effective in growing the skills of the budding warriors, and it would be greatly needed in the dangerous days ahead, which were growing ever nearer.
