Chapter 205 - Make money (2/2)
Gary then started to search the room just in case Ray was still there, after looking around for a little while, it seemed like Ray had truly disappeared. Then Gary went up to the bed where he was sleeping for the night.
He knelt down and went to grab something from underneath his bed where Gary kept his belongings.
He pulled out a fairly large bag which also had a long item attached to it with a white cloth wrapped around. Gary placed the bag on the floor and lifted the clothed item onto his bed.
”Well, he wanted us to get money quick right?” Gary said as he started to unwrap the item.
When all the cloth had been taken off, finally the object could be seen. It was a single-handed black blade and, on the hilt, it had the symbol of wings with an eye in the centre.
”Didn't Ray lock that sword away?” Jack said.
”Yes, but I managed to see where Slyvia had put it and took it onto our journey with us.”
”If Ray were to find out...” Jack said.
”Does it matter, this sword had saved our lives and we may need it again, maybe you don't understand Jack because you have something and I don't.”
”What do you mean?” Jack said slightly confused.
”You're a Werewolf, your special, your strong, and Ray… I don't even need to get started on all the things he can do. My swordsmanship may have been special at the academy but compared to you two I'm nothing. I need my weapons and this is what will take me to the top.”
Jack was concerned for Gary. The last time Gary had used the blade it seemed like he was slowly going mad. He had even said the sword had told him to kill his friends around him, now that Jack thought about it a bit more, it reminded him of what Lenny had said about the dragon hammer.
Could the two weapons be linked somehow?
”I know you're worried for me Jack.” Gary said, ”but trust me I can control it, I've been using it little by little each night and I can suppress the whispers it tries to put into my head. As long as I don't use it for a long time I'll be okay.”
With that, Gary placed the sword in his left sheath while the White falcon sword was placed in his right. Gary was determined to use the White falcon for most situations and only use the Black sword when needed.

Meanwhile back at Avrion, the elders were currently in a meeting of their own. They had just finished discussing protection with the nearby cities and towns and now trade was doing well. It was Slyvia's turn to speak in the hall and she stood up holding papers in her hand.
But as she was about to say her words she noticed, Sir K, Wilfred, and the others staring at her.
”What is something wrong?” Slyvia asked.
Just then she felt a hand placed on her left shoulder.
”I'm back,” Ray said.
