2024-10-29 19:42:56It was now four days after the battle between Ace and Vorus.
News spread far and wide across Ernia about the Brave that defeated one of the strongest district commanders.
In an isolated area not far from Kondo, an army was being addressed by a man.
He was tall and skinny, had silver hair, and was clad in Violet armor with a cape around his back.
He was pacing about the filled with his hands positioned behind him.
"Soldiers, join our armies to become heroes the same way the legends of old did"
"They are born to rescue, to enter hell and conquer on behalf of the light!!"
"Let the children born of the hero's heart be the champions of the weary, let them take their strength and lift the broken, for they are the ones who would lay down life and limb to do what is right!!"
"So take up your arms and follow me as we go to battle against the accursed Relic users!"
RAWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
All the soldiers raised their weapons in unison and led out their war cry.
"All hail Cronoa!"
They cheered.
"All hail Rada Khan!!!".
He left the soldiers and walked into a tent, inside was a map dictating several parts of Ernia and routes leading to Kondo.
"General Khan, May I enter".
A woman's voice was heard from outside.
"Kira, please do come in"
A woman entered the tent.
She was Clad in pink armor and a pink cape, she had brown hair that was barely visible over the helmet she was wearing which also covered her face.
"General, If I may, now is the perfect time to attack Kondo".
She proclaims as she held up a phone depicting a roughly captured video of Ace using Kill Switch on Vorus.
"They were news that Vorus was beaten by some kid in Regrah"
"Hmmm".
Rada Khan took the phone from her and played the video again.
'That armband on the kid's hand looks familiar but I can't seem to point out why'.
"Kira, send a message to the Capital."
"Yes General!"
"Tell them we're moving the invasion by a week and get me, my brother".
Meanwhile, back in Regrah...
"Calm down, demon spawn or your wounds will open up".
Ace had finally woken up and was gleefully jumping around after seeing the finished emblem.
"Sheesh, why do I feel like I'm only here to babysit you".
The thief face-palmed.
He smiled...
'Well, I'm glad he's alright.
"All that's left now is an Ark".
An Ark as the name suggests is a Giant ship able to carry a large number of people and goods that every Clan has.
It, alongside an emblem, are the basic requirements needed in starting a clan.
Ace who had calmed down was currently in the inn with Reginald.
"And how on earth are we gonna get an Ark!?".
"I don't know".
"(- -)".
KNOCK KNOCK
They heard large knocks coming from the door of the inn. Reginald walked up and opened the door only for him to retreat and take a fighting stance.
The one who came into the room was none other than Vorus.
"What are you doing here!". Reginald exclaimed.
Vorus seemed to ignore his existence entirely as he only had his eyes on Ace.
"Hey! Don't tak-"
Before Reginald could finish, Ace held his arm out to stop him.
He then walked forward to come face to face with the large behemoth.
"Have you come for a rematch?".
He asked cracking his fists with a smirk on his face ready to throw down.
The large man then did something unexpected.
"Hey!! What are you doing, get up!"
Vorus was on his knees.
"Please let me join your Clan!"
"Eh!!!!"
Reginald plopped down in at this turn of events.
The man who tried to kill Ace a few days ago was currently on his knees and begging to join their clan. But what happened next left him dumbfounded...
"Okay". Ace said with the usual smile on his face like they were never foes.
"Great! I heard you were looking for a Clan, Captain".
"Yeah, you think you can help us out"
"Hahahaha! You're my Captain now, just give the order and I will follow".
Reginald who had become a statue of shock could only turn his head as he witnessed the current conversation. And once again...
"Eh!!!!"
One week later, the trio arrived at Kondo.
"Commander!!!"
Cain, Ruth, and Vidal, Vorus's trusted compatriots came rushing towards him.
"W-we're so gl-ad y-you're okay!!". Ruth sobbed as they all hugged the muscular man who patted them on their heads.
They were rejoicing at the fact that their Leader was back and safe after he got into a fight wi-
"You!". Cain pulled out his sword and pointed it towards Ace. The man who defeated their captain and defamed him, they all watched a blurry clip of Ace delivering the finishing blow to Vorus.
"Stand down, Cain. He's not the enemy here".
Vorus took the chance to tell them about how he had joined Ace's clan and will be leaving in a short time as soon as they can get an Ark.
At first, the trio were perplexed and didn't want their leader to go.
"You just got back".
"Yeah and what about Kondo?"
"Kondo has done alright without me for five years now, and they're in perfect hands."
He placed his hand on Cain's shoulder.
"Cain, you have been a loyal and dear companion, all of you have, really, but I want to travel further across the world with Ace here"
The three were all tearing down as he continued.
"I don't expect you guys to forgive me for abandoning Kondo but we will always be allies and Kondo has always been in good hands". He finished with a smile.
"Commander!!"
The trio burst into tears and hugged him one more time, then it happened.
BOOM!
A series of explosions could be heard around the District, smoke and flames were scattered everywhere.
A guard came running over, his face like he had seen a ghost only they were hundreds of them.
"Commander.... You're... here... we're... under... attack". The guard exclaimed panting heavily, he was also bloody and injured.
"Rada Khan is attacking"

On the fields right outside of Kondo, an army of hundreds were marching in unison. The one heading this party was Rada Khan. "Hand me another Cannon". He took the cannon and with movements like a pitcher, threw the cannon over the walls of Kondo and a huge explosion could be heard. This went on a couple of times. As for the condition on the other side... "They're over 200 of them, I don't sense any relics from them though" He had deployed his shadow to spy on the marching army. "What now!" The one who spoke next was Reginald, he was panicking evident from how he was aggressively pulling his hair. "What else, we fight" "H-hold on!" Reginald interjected "I didn't sign up for war, this is his problem." He was pointing at Vorus. &

"We can actually win this!"Ace had his hands folded as he watched the General plopped in confusion.In front of him were the countless soldiers and Kira who got trapped by their own shadow.He dubbed this technique "Shadow Realm Prison."The inside of the shadow itself was a whole different dimension, that was why Rada Khan could not sense his army even after using seismic sense, an advanced ain technique in which the user could feel the presence of everything and everyone within the radius of their ain's aura.In this case, Rada Khan's Seismic Sense could reach well over one kilometer."We don't have much time, Regi should wrap this up"Ace was feeling the backlash of the hundreds of soldiers trying to use their aura to escape."If it goes on like this they'll escape in less than five minutes".

"There!"An arrow was shot at a bird only for the bird to dodge."Shoot! Over there!""Argh! I can't concentrate if you keep yelling at my ear, Sir Vorus!"Conroy who was hopelessly trying to shoot a strange bird exclaims as he readied another arrow.They were currently on foot and a few meters away from their destination when suddenly they were attacked by a giant rainbow-colored bird with long talons."Sun purge!"Conroy shot another arrow only for the monstrous bird to swiftly dodge it.Vorus couldn't help but dodge incoming attacks from the bird as he was carrying a sick Ace on his back.With a mighty caw, the rainbow-colored bird started to flap its wings really fast generating a strong wind current that manages to push the adventurers back."Vorus, put me down.""But Captain, it's too dan-""Trust me."Ace who had barely regained consciousness got down from the big man's back and approached the bird."Look, the birds calming down."Conroy said as he put away his bow.Ace then ra

I'm sure Mely has a good reason for summoning us, let's hear her out."The one who spoke this time was General Gantala, the youngest of all the four Generals famous for his cunning tactics in war and recon."It's Axel! Pff whatever, carry on, Mel!""Thank you for coming on such short notice, I will cut straight to the point."She places a map on the desk and spreads it open as he continues."My spies have spotted the ark of our culprit around this area here."Axel

"You sure your brother's in there?"Ace and Rohan were currently staking an abandoned mansion in a darkling forest not far from Lily town.Rohan had spent an entire day unconscious, after he woke up, Ace narrated how his battle with Rada Khan went and how a mysterious person with a scythe came to the scene and picked him up."If they're using a scythe, it's definitely that witch." That was what Rohan said as he clenched his fists and slammed them on the desk."Luckily their hideout is not far from here and I know where it is.""Good, I'll help you find your brother, and then you will join my clan."Ace said cheerfully with sparkles in his eyes.He wanted Rohan to join Aegis because he was astonished by the swordsman's skills from earlier.'Had I not taken power from Malacoda, I would've lost.'That was the case.Similar to how he gave up a year of his life to defeat Rada Khan when he exhausted his powers, Ace made a deal again but this time around he wagered 3 months.It was one of th

"Kill switch!"The familiar attack created a huge explosion that crumbled a section of the walls of the room they were in.As the dust settles, the battered red-haired man was shown getting back up panting heavily."Huff. Huff.

"This goodbye is not forever, sir Ace." Conroy says struggling to put his emotions in check. "Yes!" Vorus exclaims as he throws his arms in the air. "When You return, I shall challenge you, Captain!" "I'll be sure to share my findings with you." Maggie added. "Yeah bro, we'll rock it out when you get back." Ernie added. "I'll keep these rascals in check for you." Said Kaz. "Guys..."

She remarked with a smile.Ryker wore a stoic expression as he glances at the two. 'Why are they talking as if the cruiser is a living thing?'Just then, Ming approached them."Ming..." Zera said in a cold tone.Ryker felt a chill run down his spine. She gave off the same vibe as earlier when they met. The look was aimed at the android yet he felt restless."Zera..." Ming responded in a similar manner."I see Jackie still hasn't taken you for recycling.""I see you're still trying to pass off as a young and beautiful woman despite being an old hag."A vein popped on the vampire's head.
