Hero System! Transported to Another World

Hearing Alex's words shocked everyone within the room. Sir fire walked up to Alex and looked him deep in the eyes. "You're 100 percent serious, right?"

Alex nodded in answer to Sir Fire's question. He looked around him to see that everyone was in shock.

Sir Fire spoke, "Okay, This is a shocker but it's good as well. We've learned that there are stronger reapers out there. We can prepare for that. I wouldn't this is bad news but in fact, it's good news. I think with this information, there will be a new meeting soon… Telling every awakened about this new finding. Now, My biggest concern is that it called an A rank weak…"

Sir FIre paused to think for a bit. At this time, Buster spoke, "If it called us weak, It could mean that the reaper is as powerful as an S rank. We all know the difference between an A rank and an S rank… It's so big that even you, Sir Fire have a special rank in between S rank and A rank…"

Sir Fire nodded in agreement, "That is true, just because they called an A rank weak doesn't mean that they can just defeat anyone… It just means that their power is that of an A rank or higher. The gap between An A rank and a pseudo S rank is also very high and the gap is also larger between S ranks and pseudo S ranks… So worrying about this will be useless. Our number one focus should be finding a proper weakness of the reapers as well as boosing every awakened's powers. I can't shake the feeling of something bad happening. Especially after all that has happened till now. The reapers are evolving into something that's a lot stronger, even the gates are evolving… This will be a stressful thing but we will begin something soon. I'll do a meeting on that some other day after setting up everything. For now, let's have a look at the reaper you all brought."

Sir Fire said as he walked towards another the doors into another room, "This is the beast room. Where we keep some reaper corpses and alive reapers as well."

The three followed behind Sir Fire, Alex and Midnight especially were curious about what they would be able to see in the beast room. As they entered the room, They could hear the cries and shrieks of reapers again. This time it was very loud.

"What's happening?" Midnight looked a bit freaked out by the noises in the room.

Sir Fire shook his head, "I don't know, We haven't done anything to them but they keep on screaming. Sometimes, It's extremely silent but every now and then, they just screech like they're about to die. They go completely crazy, Some night I've had urges to kill them all but I've held until now.m I've had a feeling like something calls them every now and then, making them screech back or something similar. But among all of these, I've never heard anything that sounds like a distinguishable word…"

Alex nodded when he heard Sir Fire's words, He could empathize with what Sir Fire was saying. He himself felt anger when he heard the non-stop screeching of the reapers. Hearing, Sir FIre's last point, Alex spoke up, "I think it depends on how powerful they are. Until now, this would have only gotten a few higher ranked Reapers and they might not have spoken at all. But from what I saw, all of them were very powerful. And there were communicating like a small team. One of them was leading while the others followed them. I think I might have even heard the word captain spoke a few times by them…"

Alex explained slowly. He wanted to be of help so he told them everything that he could without mentioning his system. 'Although I didn't hear them say, captain, one of their names had captain in front. So Assuming that they speak as we do, It's more than possible that they rank each other according to strength. So Giving this reasoning is not a lie, just stretched truth that is yet to be confirmed.'

Sir Fire looked towards Alex with a confused expression which progressively turned into shock. He spoke, "I… I don't know what to say anymore. Alex, Was there anything else special you went through in the gate? From what you said, It seems that you might have come across maybe even the leaders of the reapers. It doesn't make sense to me. I've never seen anything like that, hell I've never seen or read any reports that say anything close to what you said." Sir Fire took a deep breath and looked around at the other who was also in shock.

He then looked at Alex with a serious expression, "Alex, Are you sure those were reapers? They might have been other creatures that you might have been confused with.."

Alex shook his head, 'I only saw reapers written on the prompts and their levels and title, nothing else. So they should only be reapers.' Alex looked at Sir fire and explained, "From everything I've seen they are 100 percent reapers. They look exactly the same as the reapers that appear in gates here, just taller and more muscular and also added on the fact that they could talk."

Sir Fire's face sank, he looked at Buster and said, "Buster, on the old reports… They described the creatures very differently, correct?"

Buster nodded his head, "Very differently. They seemed to be entirely different creatures… And they were even larger than the reapers and had a deep growl…"

Alex seemed to remember something when he heard What buster said, 'If I remember When I first asked what mind-controlled were… The system mentioned of creatures called Magus… Are they talking of magus?' Alex was curious.

'Well, I can't really take its name out. I've already said things to shock them but all of them I could explain why I know but naming the creature would be a far cry. They would probably just lock me up and question me on everything…'

Hey people, I'm feeling better.

I don't think that I'm infected with covid but I have been in contact with someone who was covid positive. Still in the incubation time and Maybe I'll be doing the test tomorrow. I really don't know.

The headache might have been from stress as I am juggling my classes, writing, art, and the stress of possibly having covid(it's been 9 days since we've been in contact and no symptoms yet but you could never be sure). It's weird times haha.

But I thank you for the support, It means a lot.

I have exams next until 15th of October. Until then, I will do alternate chapters. I hope you all don't mind.

After that, Back to full throttle.

Once again, thank you all. It means the world and more to me when I see the amount of support you gave me.
