Chapter 5 - What are the mightiest of Troy? The answer is Achilles

As I installed The Rider class card, I saw his memories and his prophecy.

Where his mother, which is a goddess put them in the river of lost souls but still have any grab his ankle or more precisely his heel.

I saw him grow up with his teacher a centaur, When he left the mountain and joined the army.

Where he took his first life, and his best friend, but what scared me the most was his rage, The rage that took everything.

Where he defiled the body of Hector the enemy prince and the one that killed his best friend.

And finally his death, shot by Paris in the heel guided by Apollo the God of light and archery.

But he was the fastest demigod, for took a a god to kill this mortal to finally end this one-sided beat down for Troy.

As I got my head back in the game from the memory influx, I could feel Achilles guiding me through the motions of having a ride a chariot, It was invigorating.

Then, before I knew it I heard his voice ringing through my head.

"Hahaha, don't worry master, I'll show you what the greatest of the Myrmidons, can do hahaha." His tone was that of proud man that is achieved of many things throughout his lifetime wearing everything like a badge of honor.

When we arrive there was only one thing that crossed my mind, "this is Carnage." Was the only thing that made me aware of how bad it was here.

There were over 100 grim, All of them looked ready to devour two little girls in a wagon.

Using Rider speed I managed to run towards them in a flash of light.

But then all of a sudden three cards began to flash and I took them an instantly got the feeling of them wanting to be with the one in the Red Hood.

So, I threw the three cards to her and she got him in her hands looking startled by my appearance and the cards.

"Don't worry, this will be over in a flash, so don't blink." I said but it came out with the Rider's usual confidence.

I took runner's pose and then I ran the world seems so slow as I went forward, everything around me felt so slow yet I kept constantly destroying everything around me with this incredible speed.

I saw flashes of light running through the grim demolishing them with fear strikes that sounded like thunder.

As I picked up the three cards I felt them each calling out to me to use them.

I picked up one that had the symbol of a Archer but also person with twin daggers like that of a assassin.

Just say install and you'll have my power.

And just like that I could hear a voice telling me in my head and I did it subconsciously as well.

Install. It felt weird like a source of energy was being added on to me like aura but yet it was different like he was adding a blanket over me It was common soothing but also a very chilling.

I saw memories flashing by or images but they were all incredible he was a single man going against an entire army practically each marching towards him but yet he's still fun I am self with just his gun.

I saw him kill over 700 people and yet he still counted every one of them and 500 of them shots were from a sniper the other 200 were from a submachine gun.

And it was his nickname that sent chill up my spine, The White death, Simo Hayia.

And the thing that shocked me most was that he was started as a simple farmer turned soldier.

I then felt a pat on my back like it was comforting me.

Don't worry Master once they're in our sites, they're already dead.

I look down at my hands so they were covered in gloves pure white as in my clothing as well I felt a mask and a hood covering my head.

I felt myself instantly recognizing the gun in my hand and I took him and shot it killing a grim in the head.

I repeated the action seamlessly as if it was a daily occurrence.

But what I didn't know was that my face showed no emotion, My eyes were so dull and that it seemed like they were a dead person.

As I turn my head to look at the green streak of light, It was then that the name Achilles popped into my head giving me all the information I needed to know if this legendary hero that single-handedly changed the war of Troy.

Indeed master It would be tough to shoot him down but it wouldn't be impossible for me.

And that just proved that I'm had the person in my head watching over me and guiding me to use his abilities and powers.

As I took aim at the grim that near, my sister, and I pulled the trigger.

It destroyed 15 grim, with one shot.

"Not bad." I heard him behind me.

As I looked around there were no grim around.

They were all gone turning into dust.
