"Devil woman, we received word from the Demon spawn. They've succeeded in their infiltration mission and will join us in a bit."Rhea had a malevolent smile on her face."Gather everybody."A few minutes later, Rhea, the Enders, and the Aegises were all gathered around the castle entrance."Rada Khan is already near the outposts. It is time.""Everybody, gear up! Eat! Take a 10 minutes nap or whatever... We're going to war!"They all cheered in unison as they prepped themselves, physically and mentally."So, we all know our parts?"Rhea and Vorus nodded at Reginald."Hehe." Kaz slaps the back of the thief. "Don't worry about a thing, your plan is foolproof. We just have to hold on till the cavalry arrives.""Well then, as the Demon spawn will say... Let's do this thing."..."Woah."The alliance was currently staring off against Rada Khan's army."Hahahaha! Just as expected. Rhea Kay will join the party as well.""Khan! We should have just killed you off when we had the chance.""Oh b
Ace, Conroy, and Vorus had managed to defeat a weakened Jester.Conroy ran towards the City to get medics so the injured can be healed.While Ace, on the other hand, made his way back to the battlefield.A few moments ago..."Guys! Vo is in trouble, that Jester over there is a fake.""I was with him when he picked up Adacus earlier. He made off to the direction of the district. I thought he'd be back by now.""Tsk." Ace activated his Seismic Insight. Unlike before, it took him a while to activate.He was already tired from all the battling and using a wide-ranged sensory technique like that will drain him."Gotcha." He opened his eyes."Conroy, let's go!"That was how Ace and Conroy made their way to Jester."Hahaha." Rada Khan bursts into a peal of maniacal laughter."Your strongest asset has just abandoned you to fall at the hands of the clown."He pulled his sword as Kira followed suit."But don't worry, as the clown takes care of the trash, I shall round up here."They were curren
"Gantala! You bastard, what have you done!?"Gantala had stabbed Jake in the back. He didn't pay heed to the voices of Rohan, Rhea, and Chase who were calling out to their friend.Ace had just arrived. "What in the world is going on?"Gantala pushed Jake with his foot to withdraw the sword as he scrambled back to the side of Rada Khan.Rohan glared at the two. "You two were in this together, from the very beginning.""I'm afraid so, Roro. But you don't worry not one bit. I'll have you and all your friends here follow Jakey soon enough!""Then... When you said that Axel and Mel betrayed yo-""Those fools chose to die with their king. I chose to live with my emperor!""Gantala!"Driven with rage, Rohan charged at the former General as their swords clashed."Rhea, please give up. Surrender and all this will stop, if I say a word to my liege he will show mercy."Rhea stood silently as Kira urges her to surrender.Kira might have been following the wrong leader, but she has no malice towar
The battlefield shook with the vibrant cheers of everyone.Thanks to Conroy's quick actions in getting doctors, the fatally wounded received rapid first aid and were taken back to the city first.The total number of casualties on the ally's side was a mere 30 from the 100 that started the war and the 50 that provided backup with Ace.Although the casualties were below half. The allies still grieved the death of the others. It was one thing if they were only soldiers, but some of the citizens volunteered to join the war. "They fought valiantly for their freedom." "Their sacrifices were not in vain. That's what's important." The enemy side suffered a whooping casualty of 300. The soldiers were taken, prisoners."We'll have them all lend a hand in rebuilding the districts."Reginald, Jake, and Kaz having suffered the most from being stabbed spent three days in the infirmary."Hihi. Regi's awake guys!"Ace called out to his friends as they peered into the tent containing Reginald. "Wo
Clank! Boom! Boom! Swoosh!The location was the palace room within the Castle of Black Skull Island.A large muscular man standing seven feet tall was exchanging blows with Shuntal."Those two have been at it for five days now."Shuntal uses his speed to his advantage as he does not dodges a couple of straight jabs from the large man."Neither side looks as if they are ready to cave in.""Shuntal...win...for...vex."The man fighting Shuntal was none other than Don Barbaros.Shuntal flips over Barbaros and kicks him on the face. Unfazed, Barbaros grabs the leg of the Saint and slams him hard on the ground creating a man-sized hole in the process."Hahahaha." Jester laughs as he pauses to slurp down the juice he was carrying.Shuntal's broken bones healed almost instantly as he got back up.He was using the healing powers of the bird to rejuvenate.He pats Barbaros who had turned away.As the large man turned his head, Shuntal struck him with a palm imbued with his explosive aura sendin
It has been a couple of days since Rohan ascended the throne of Cronoa as its new king. Rohan is currently addressing the citizens as Rhea and the Enders were standing behind him. I, Rohan Khan, swear to serve you all with all my might! Through thick and thin till I bring this Nation back to its feet."He went silent to examine the expressions on the faces of all the people that had gathered around the castle. Rohan was nervous, he had never given a speech in his life. He coughs and continues... "I know, me ascending to the throne was because of a coup that followed a dreadful reign from a tyrant who got into power due to a coup of his own." At first, the majority were skeptical in accepting Rohan as the new King. For some, it was since he was related to the man that took the throne from the former king and nearly destroyed the Region. Others merely wanted to take the throne for themselves. They were the lords and nobles or relatives of the royal family. A minority of those f
*The"Of all the places you can choose to die, you chose the top of a wild beast?"Ace and Keith landed on top of the shadow dragon that was carrying Stark. "Who said anything about dying?" Keith retorted. "We're putting an end to this madness, you've gone too far father." "Father?" Stark scoffed. "Ungrateful fools like you have no right to call me father." The twins gritted their teeth. "Ready?" Ace asked not taking his eyes off theur father. "No," Keith replied calmy. "But then again who can actually get ready to take on the world's greatest assasin on the top of a dragon?" "Hehe, you're right I guess." The two smiled. Ace having received a shadow thanks to Reginald, created a pair of shadow daggers. Keith followed suit making a pair with his miasma. "And now, for the extra touch." The ex-assasin smiled. He coated the shadow daggers with hus dark aura making them larger by a little. "Not fair..." Keith pouted making the ex-assasin to laugh sheepishly. Stark remained unfa
The just-risen sun shone softly on the city streets, bringing with it a flurry of early-morning activity."It's nice to see things getting back in order around here."Vorus smiled as he waves at the citizens of the Kondo District. He was pleased to see the smiling faces of the ever so hardworking people.The Aegises were currently taking a stroll through the streets of the city."What's nicer is that everything is behind us now," Conroy added. "Khan and Jester are no more, I and Sir Vorus had personally handpicked a replacement for the post of District commanders.Vorus nodded. "Yeah, they're trustworthy and honest people too who promised to help in rebuilding the districts.""I was worried you two might decide to stay. Especially you, Conroy. Well with the letter and all." Ace said with a faint smile.The two looked at each other and turned to address their captain."Just because I'm away doesn't mean I can't keep tabs on Kondo. I asked the new District commander that will arrive to
