“We need to get serious,” Giro states as he stepped forward. He started attaching a metallic weapon on his knuckles as glared at the black knight.
“No more playing games,” Cicero was also crouching as he was pulling out a knife that was hidden on his back.“No more holding back,” Metikulo was also taking out several things on the satchel that was hidden on his hip.Seeing that their undefeated tactic had been useless and easily shaken off like that, the three boys knew then and there that this was not a normal enemy that they could take on halfheartedly.Hidden within the covers on their faces was a wide smile. Though they were all facing a predicament. There was no denying that they were all looking forward to going all out.It had been a long time since they have been allowed to run wild and go all out. And that was all because the three of them had this argument when they were still litt“So you think I’m the weakest.” Metikulo suddenly stopped struggling, he was now breathing heavily, feeling an uncontrollable fire blaze inside of him upon hearing those words. Alexander’s grin slowly disappeared. When he felt the sudden surge of energy that appeared within the boy that he was holding. In a matter of moments, he was blown away by the said child. The boy did it without even invoking a spell or moving a muscle. He let out a low grunt, wincing when he felt the sting of the attack. His smug face completely faded when he saw what the three boys had now turned into. His eyes suddenly were filled with a sense of anxiety and excitement upon gazing at the familiar form the three had taken. “Well, well. Seems like I also need to take this seriously,” He says to himself, ripping the remaining clothing that was hanging on his shoulder in preparation for their next round. Giro, Cicero, and Metikulo had now broken their mother’s seal. Having re
Dark flames blasted everywhere. Along with several lights that kept flying from one place to another. Trees were on fire along with the ground. It was like the whole mountain had turned into hell on earth.Yet the four warriors seemed oblivious to everything that was happening. Enjoying the sheer thrill and adrenaline of their battle.Bloodied, barely able to move, and their magic almost running out. The three boys still had this wide grin on their faces. With their mystical armor on, they were able to freely use their forbidden flames to their limits. Not caring about the surrounding, no longer hindered by any restrictions. They were able to freely attack to their hearts' content. Having only the sole intention of defeating their enemy.Even Alexander was gasping for air, though he was not as close to going down as the three little runts. He was still quite beaten down himself. There were bruises, gashes, and a few cuts in him. Something that
“I was starting to think that you wouldn’t show up,” Alexander was unable to hide the joy in his face.His smile became sweeter, giving out that longing look. Once again after so long, he was able to gaze at his beloved lady. His legs moved on their own, walking towards the woman without thinking of the dangers that may come his way.“That’s as far as you’ll go, draconian.” Kaya’s quickly raised her spear, pointing it straight at the man’s neck. Stopping him before he was even able to get close to her.Alexander felt the cold, searing graze of the magical weapon on his skin. It merely touched him yet it was still able to cut through his skin. But that did not remove the wide smile on his. Relentless, even though the woman was outright hostile towards him.“Now, now, my lady. Let’s not be hasty here. I’ve come bearing a proposition for you.” He quickly mov
“Your majesty!” Lord Slog and the others called out.They had been unable to reach their liege for the past few hours. Fearful that they might get in his way. All of them didn’t really have much of a choice. None of them were able to traverse the mountain has had to avoid getting blasted or burned alive.Somehow the whole place had finally calmed down. After that final surge of light covered the whole place. Though it leveled the whole mountain, it also managed to douse the flames all around them.But now they were all worried, seeing how powerful that attack was. Though they knew their emperor was almost an unstoppable beast, they were now starting to think of the worst seeing the large barren area that had replaced the once lush form of land.“Find the emperor!” Mistress Moryana quickly ordered everyone in sight.The soldiers began scattering around the whole place. Digging, searching, a
“Kaya!” The man’s voice kept echoing inside her head.She was already leaning on the trees, trying to keep herself up. For some reason, her legs felt like they were already about to give in. This pain in her chest kept poking at her. Scratching inside of her after several memories of their past came crashing in on her.She bit her lips, trying to keep her sobs when she remembered the pain. She had really thought she’d moved on, forgotten about it. But that all prove wrong when she felt his touch on her body.Falling on her knees, she let out a quiet sob. She hated herself for still having feelings for the man. That lingering thought just made her feel uneasy. In her mind she should hate him, loathe him, and most of all, she shouldn’t be feeling that way anymore.There was once again a sudden thrust in her heart. Remembering how she would have been able to have ended it all a while ago. She was so close
“How are the boys doing?” Karilaya asks as they had just finished doing rounds on the village wall.She wanted to make sure that the runes remained in check and stable and the wooden walls did not have any kind of damages.“They’re still in bed, my lady,” Kirei answered as she finishes writing all the things that her lady had instructed a while ago. “It seems the fight with the Draconian has exhausted them all,” she informs.Even her head priestess could not believe that the three were actually beaten into submission like that.“Are they doing well,” Karilaya sighed, remembering the injuries that they got from the fight.“Their wounds are all healing well. And we’ve also managed to fix their dislocated joints,” Kirei informs her lady since the three boys don’t seem to be having any problems recovering.“Thank goodness.&rdqu
The morning was already approaching and there were only a few dozen people to transport. Karilaya was thankful that she was able to hold on that long.She never expected that such a kind of army existed. She knew that the empire's army was formidable, but she never thought that they would be this horrifying. No matter how many phantom soldiers and golems she’d summon, they were not enough as she could only summon about a thousand or. Which was the same number as the imperial soldiers. It would take at least three of her high-level phantom warriors to take on a fully armored knight. The only things that were keeping them at bay were the barriers and the flame sentinels that shot from a distance, pushing them back.“My lady, you should step into the portal,” Kirei called out after transporting the last of the civilians.It was now only her and a few soldiers that remained there. Karilaya finally felt comfort when she saw that ev
“Your majesty, are you all right?” It was lord Galford Drake who approach him.The old man could not help but show his worry. Having seen the broken armor and tattered clothes of their emperor after emerging from that magical fortress.“I am fine, uncle,” he waves him off. His eyes still focus on his lady that was unconscious in his arms.Kaya finally fainted after letting out her final attack. Luckily he had his Draken sword which he used to nullify and absorb the woman’s last attack.“You are wounded, sire!” Lord Drake gasped upon seeing the gashes and still dripping blood from his shoulders and arms.“It is nothing to be concerned about,” Alexander shrugs him off, not wanting him to worry about such a thing.“But your majesty,” The man once again tried to plead.Alexande
