“Thank you boy thank you”
“I am sorry I didn’t come to welcome you here, my father didn’t inform me of your arrival”
“Oh its ok Namtar I don’t think your father knows I am here yet, where is he now? I thought he wouldn’t leave his champion unattended yet it seems he entrusted him to you… I am sure you trained him well”
“Thanks for the complement lord Hadad”
“Huh… Now Namtar could you go and call your father for me?”
“Certainly, wait for me here please”

Namtar was Talking to the man in the distance for a while I couldn’t hear much so I just stood there with my sword on my back and my left hand in my pocket…
Namtar disappeared in his shadow and the man kept getting closer until he was right in front of me, less than a meter apart from me in fact…
He was Huge easily taller than two meters, as wide as a car… a car with braded white hair and beard, he was wearing some yellow pants and an open brown robe exposing his chest which was very masculine and hairy…
-What is your name boy?
-Atlas.
-What you did here isn’t small kid! Namtar is not week.
-Thanks but, aren’t you going to introduce yourself?
-Hah!? Ha-hah. You’re interesting indeed... Atlas. You can call me Hadad.
-So you were saying Hadad?
-Huh, I like you kid… Just like I said Namtar is not week!
-I Agree, he isn’t week.
-So… you think you can beat him again?
-It is a possibility.
-Would you like to confirm this possibility?
-…No, I’ll pass! Thanks though.
The giant looked at me and let out a sigh of disappointment.
He turned around and started walking away from me.

*Sword clash*
Not even a split second later a man jumped at me with a spear. He seemed to be hiding behind the big man. I blocked his attack with my sword, He backed off to the left…
-Hi there mate! Name’s Oliver.
I turned my head towards Hadad and saw that he was sitting on the ground somewhat far from us. He was observing, he seemed anxious to know the result of this battle… I don’t think he will intervene. I turned my head back at my opponent who was stretching, he was wearing a blue t-shirt that had a big yellow sun that was smiling on it with a black jeans that had some tares near the knee.
His look changed, he is going to attack…
I took my stance… left leg in front right leg in the back left hand on my chest and right one holding my sword to my back.
He seems to be preparing for an attack… he held his spear with two hands and smacked its dull end on the ground and with a faint golden light a new sharp head grew on it. His spear has two heads now.
He seemed to be taking a stance but I gave him to chance to do that…
*Swoosh*
I leaped at him and swung my sword at him, he barely tilted his head back enough so my attack only grazed his chin…
Was I going to kill him? I didn’t really want to... maybe this is the effect of fighting for my life for so long…
I backed off and switched to the dull side of my sword and re took my stance.
*Swish*
His spear came flying towards me, it was so fast I couldn’t see it at all.
I only heard its sound and jumped from it to the left yet, I was late as it grazed the left side of my stomach…
I didn’t wait before initiating my counter attack…
*Clack*
I jumped at him holding my sword at the top of my head and smacked it down at him… I hit the ground, he dodged faster this time and jumped at me swinging his spear at me… I took a step back and started blocking his attacks
*Clash*
We kept trading attacks back and forth without any of us injuring the other…
Until he jumped back his eyes flashing with a golden light then his spear started flashing with the same light…
*War cry*
With a small loud cry he started rushing towards me with his spear in front of him, it was clear that he was planning to end it!
But I was ready! I took my stance and held my sword ready to counter him.
He got closer and closer until he was very close, the spear was on my right so I pulled down my sword to counter it but the second I touched it… it was at my left!
-What the…?
*Penetration*
.
.
.
He…how?
-Hah! You aren’t bad kid, maybe next time?
Who do you think you are!?
I stood back on my legs with blood pouring out of my mouth and wounds… I gripped my sword and started walking towards him, with every step his spear went even deeper throw me…
It was painful, but I had worst deaths!
-Come on mate! He-h, Are you kidding me!?
He started twisting the spear inside me… this elevated this pain to some of Namtar’s attacks yet, not really near it.
Nonetheless I kept walking, towards him…
Until I stood right in front of him, he didn’t leave his weapon and back off… not sure if it was pried or fear…
I grabbed my sword with both of my hands and hit him on his head with the dull edge using all the power I had left.
*Crack*
I could hear the crack of his skull… he fell on the ground I think he’s only unconscious.
*Loud laughter*
I turned my head to see the giant whom I forgot about walking towards me while laughing and smiling.
Seems like he enjoyed the show.
What… my vision was blurring.
Of course it would, I lost a lot of blood.
*Bump*
