The Abandoned Hunter

Chapter 4: Abandoned - Part 4

"J-Jay Down?"

Mia's words trembled as she called out his name.

"Jay is standing? How... how is this possible?"

She wanted to know that why wasn't Jay affected. She stared at him as much as she could.

The hunters who were next to Mia, heard her and turned their gazes towards Jay.

They all were shocked to see that the pressure wasn't affecting Jay at all.

They wanted to ask him as how he was able to withstand it but they couldn't bring themselves to ask him after seeing his expressions.

Jay was shocked and puzzled and that was why no one asked him. They thought that this might have been some coincidence or luck.

"Wh-what the...? I can't believe it..."

Jay was lucky to not get under the pressure.

But still the question was as why and how was he safe!

No one knew the answer. That was what supposed to be but Jay knew it very well. He had seen the exact same thing in his dream.

All he did was cover his ears and didn't listen or hear the word 'BOW' and due to that he wasn't affected.

However he covered his ears subconsciously. He wasn't fully aware of what he did. And now he was the only one who could move around.

"I... I am saved..?"

Jay's heart was beating as fast as it could. His breathing had increased tremendously! He was happy since he was safe. And the very next thought that came across his mind was to save all those who were under the pressure.

He turned towards the remaining hunter.

"You... all..."

But even before he could complete his sentence, a voice was heard.

"Impossible! You dared to stand in front of me?" *A deep and arrogant voice filled with anger*

"Eh...? What does that..."Jay was trying to say something but yet again couldn't finish his sentence.

And this time it wasn't because they heard some voice, in fact it was because of the visual image that they saw!

All the hunters that were crawling in the ground trembled with ten times more fear than before.

"D-DRAGON!!!! THE BLACK DRAGON!!!"

On of the hunter lost his composure and shouted and to this rest of the hunters did the same.

All the sound started echoing throughout the room.

None was able to keep their composure. However midst this Jay was smirking for some reason.

"Un-unbelievable... it really is the same as I had dreamt!" Jay was thrilled with joy from within.

Note 1: The Dragons are believed to be at the top of good chain! The dungeon in which a dragon can exist is classified as S-rank dungeon at the least and there are only 20-30 dungeons that are given S-Rank! However, the true anticipation would tell that the dungeon transcends the S-rank and hence are given special ranks called SS and SSS!

Note 2: Even among Dragons, there are some dragons whose strength transcends the normal dragons and they are called the TRUE DRAGONS!

Note 3: There are 5 TRUE DRAGONS in total and they are currently unknown! Only some scriptures are found that describe them and according to those descriptions THE BLACK DRAGON is one of the True Dragons!

"Amazing... it's simply amazing..."

Jay was awed at its presence.

The dragon then started to take a deep breath and as soon as Jay saw this he shouted, "Everyone!!!! Don't lift your heads!!!"
