Bryton Ironhand tried his best to calm himself.
He could not believe what he just witnessed. The human youth who could not hold a hammer properly yesterday just created an amazing sword. He had to admit that this human was powerful. The power he summoned at the end of the process was something he had never heard or witnessed. Even in his famous Ironhand family, he doubted if there was a master who could have created something like this.
The only thing he knew was that the sword was too abnormal. And he was also excited to see what it had become. The blade was a common blade they forged for humans, but now it was something even he couldn’t understand.
‘He must be related to gods,’ Bryton felt regret thinking the way he acted.
They had many to
Adam made his way through the dwarven city.Just like last night, the city was getting darker, similar to the outside world. The crystal sun reflected the evening sun to the city, giving a red shade. Adam enjoyed the warmth of the last rays as he arrived at Ironhand’s home.Just like other buildings, this place was also made of stone, but the residence was much larger compared to the other buildings. Also, he saw a small forge to the side from the entrance that was made of a stone arch with vivid carvings on it. There were several children and adults who were gathered in the front garden. And they were all looking at him with curious eyes.Adam stopped at the stone arch without entering the premises. After all, he was not here with the second prince who usually accompanied him. There were guards, b
“Do you want to know why I don’t enjoy doing business with humans? I will tell you the story,” Adam gave a nod.He also wanted to know what was the reason that these dwarfs were against trading with humans.“What do you know about our God, Adam?” Adam thought for a moment.He had not heard about the god dwarfs worshipped.‘System, who is the God dwarfs worship?’ He turned to the only source he had.- The dwarfs used to worship the Earth God.‘Is that one of the Gods that is in sleep?’ Until today, he hadn’t heard about this god.- The earth
“Blood Bond, for our freedom.”Adam thought for a while.Blood bond was a spell in his Mystic knowledge. It was natural magic that bound someone’s blood and his bloodline to a promise.Adam always thought the divine power was above the natural magic. Because of that, he did not know the outcome of this spell. Besides, according to his knowledge, this spell was hard to cast.However, Adam wondered if these people had their magicians. Until today, Adam didn’t see any magicians among them. Other than that, he had no problem with this spell.It was not a common spell, and there may not be many people who could cast this spell. And it required the agreement of the one who binds
“Lord Adam, what do you expect from us in exchange?”Adam felt only now these dwarfs showing their true face.They were much more interested in his forging Technology than they showed yesterday.Adam thought for a moment. Even though he knew they would ask for this, and offer something in return for his knowledge, he didn’t have the time to decide what exactly he needed.“What about technology, other than what we need?”Even though he asked for help from dwarfs, the initial target was to build the water system for the new area. Other than that, even though he wanted the help of these people and their amazing technology, he was not sure whether they would agree to tha
Adam finally had relief.After the second prince; prince Lohar stood up, things got much better. And it even gave the advantage he wanted.The support of the dwarfs to build a city.This was a significant advantage. Even though taking a large group of people was a burden, more people mean less work time. He silently waited until the council and the others came to an agreement. They were also discussing security and other matters. And it was a great relief to him, considering that he would not be solely responsible for everything.“Lord Adam, when do you need to go back?” Adam thought for a moment.He could try to go back by the time the birthday of Her Majesty if he left the dwarven Kingdom in an
Elena sat on the Wind Pass City Palace Throne.The magic mirror was on the desk in front of her. She took another sip from her cup. The juice was refreshing, and the herbs were good for her body. After gaining so much strength, there was rarely body tempering left for her. All she had to do was practise her breathing. And it was something she always did, even right now. These herbs suggested by Adam when they were discussing. And it had a significant effect on restoring her lost energy.Her apprentice, Amy, finally had a new tutor. Otherwise, she never left her side. And Amy never lacked the thirst for knowledge.‘Maybe like her brother,’She thought about the man she was waiting for the whole morningShe ca
“You need a Blood Bond?” Jane heard Elena’s voice.She was writing the discussion between the dwarven king and her younger sister. However, she realised her focus was on the written content and missed the conversation.She stopped writing and looked up. This negotiation was already enough to make her wonder if she was in a dream.Adam had successfully made the negotiation table for her sister. As the royal family of the Crimson Empire, it was their responsibility to develop the Empire. And the refugee problem in the West Coast City was a tremendous burden to them. However, after today they had a chance to change it.She already wrote everything she heard. There will be at least two thousand dwarfs coming to the Crimson Empire with Adam
“Husband,” Mila whispered, trying to catch her breath.She lay on his bare chest with a satisfied smile.Even though she was tired and sweaty, she felt satisfied. She didn’t know if it was because of the number of years they had been apart, or because of the amazing strength her husband had.Tonight was longer than she remembered. She shivered, feeling his hand caressing her naked back. Today was the first time their daughter stayed away from them. Since Arya liked the small bed, she demanded to sleep alone in one of them. And they had the night for themselves.Mila knew she would fall asleep at any moment. And she had to get up early in the morning and get dressed. She felt shy, thinking Arya might wake up before them. Also, she
“Amazing.”Despite her words, the older girl saw several teardrops in the eyes of her little sister, and she didn’t say anything about that. The story was sweet and sour. She picked her up and held her against her chest. Their mother and father were talking with some other families in the distance. Many pilgrims and worshipers walked around them, and some were telling the same story as her. It was the story of a legend. “That is the story of the Great Blood Wolf.” The older girl ended the story, holding her younger sister’s hand in front of the massive statue of their Grand Empress and Her Consort. The Blood Wolf. “Oh….” Her little sister looked elated, looking at the massive statue of the couple. The greatest rulers of the world. She knew her sister would ask about this story again and again, but she was happy to see her little tail swinging in excitement. “Are you happy?” “Yes. I am very happy. I want to be as strong as the Grand Empress in the future.” “Of Course, you
“Grandfather?” The old man shook when he heard this call. He wanted to strangle this thing to death, but first, he needed an answer. “Why did you do that? Why did you kill my Grandson?” His face looked tired and battered. Time was not a concept for him, and he hoped to see his Grandchild someday. He came here because he almost felt the presence of his little boy. However, it wasn’t him. He looked at Chaos. He remembered the day when he first saw the two-headed infant drifting across the universe. Their first meeting wasn’t a good one. The first time he met him, this kid attacked him and even injured him. However, he treated Chaos as a child and even adopted him into the family. He grew up together with his only Grandson. They were great friends and family. His Grandson never treated Chaos badly. That was the reason he permitted Chaos to go with his Grandson when he left to become the first Guardian of the universe. He was the one who even granted this power to his Grandson on
Adam crashed onto the ground with full force. He didn’t want to slow down when he saw the hideous figure standing on the beach. He knew what it was. He gritted his teeth to ignore the head-splitting pain that came with the memories. He was finally looking at the nemesis of this world; Chaos. Adam wished he could end this thing with one blow. Because it was something that shouldn’t exist. He was betting the lives of too many people, and the life of the Empress. If he failed right now, he would fail the entire world forever. His punch landed inches away from his target, but that thing moved several metres away with ease. The ground shattered under his blow, and the foul stench of the chaos entered his nose. He finally understood why the world and Mahisha failed to access this ground. Because it was contaminated by Chaos. He already created armour around his body and coated his sword with the aura of the Abyss. He didn’t have a reason to drag this. ‘This is not going to be
“Still nothing, commander.” “What exactly is going on?” Morga Steelbeard was lost. Not in the sea, but in his own thoughts. After two long months in the sea, they finally found their destination. As the second fleet commander of the Crimson Empire, he had an army of his own. Although it was still not at the level of Sakura’s fleet with twelve warships and two supply ships; his seven-shipped fleet was the second powerhouse of the sea. The land was just ahead of them, but they failed to find anything even after searching for two days. The western continent looked desolate and abandoned. There were not even large animals. This was too alarming for him. They saw birds and small rodents, but nothing bigger than that. The forest looked untainted for generations. He didn’t even think about sending a landing party. The risk was too much. ‘What exactly is happening?’ They passed through the so-called barrier about a week back, and there was nothing in between the northern continent an
“We should leave!” “Yes, Your Majesty.” Adam smiled, looking at the Empress. He wondered how many changes she made within the day to the castle. “I changed the 12th floor entirely. You should go and see.” “I will, Your Majesty.” He was sure it would be a combination of blue, shades of blue, and some gold, white and silver, and more shades of blue. There was nothing more to think, but he knew way better than to voice it out. ‘It is a good thing I have Mahisha to help her.’ He wouldn’t get any time to train his powers if he had to change the Abyss castle by himself. He sometimes felt the Empress was playing with the castle because it could be changed based on her simple thoughts. He didn’t care much at all. As long as she was happy with it. When she came here for the first time, she had a lot of complaints about the dull colours and the bad choice of material. In the end, he had no choice but to let her handle the decorations and colours as she pleased. “Not now. We have
Adam moved fast and landed in the area he saw the camps. He simply nodded at the people who started greeting him,He already found Alex, and he didn’t seem to be alright. “My Lord!!”Adam nodded at David before entering the tent. Already, there were several healers around the bed, including Mila. ‘Not good.’He felt Alex’s breathing wasn’t stable. “What happened?”The people made way for him with ease.“My Lord. There seemed to be a weird poison.”“Poison?”He didn’t smell any poison, but he realised Alex was unstable. Someone had removed the clothes from his upper body. His veins could be seen on his chest and there was a back lump on his chest. The wound was gone, but he wasn't getting any better. “Hm… Divine power.”He didn’t expect the enemy to use such a weapon. If it was before, he would have had a hard time dealing with this, but not anymore. The divine power was just another source of power restricted to this world. Although it was the most powerful, it wasn’t powerful en
“Are you alright?”“Yes, Your Majesty.”Adam sat with the Empress, looking at the two girls playing on the beach.To him, knowing the truth didn’t hurt much. Rather, he felt relieved to know the truth. ‘Am I angry?’He couldn’t say no. He was angry. If he didn’t lose his father, things would have been much different for them. Maybe… Just Maybe… His mother could have survived. Of course, it would have changed many aspects of his life, including moving to the West Coast, but he wished his mother to be alive. However, knowing the Church of Light might be behind his father’s death didn’t sting as he thought it would. As for how he knew his father was dead; that was because of what he saw in the underground of the church. There were hundreds of dead bodies being held there, draining the liquids from the,He didn’t know what was the exact process, but he saw the so-called Life potion coming out of that facility. Besides, Helen confirmed this matter. ‘If not for Amy and Zafira, I would ha
“We have to run!” Oliver heard someone yelling, but he didn’t know what to do. “He followed the orders of the king, coming here to destroy the Summer Palace city. The reason was to simply buy them more time. According to the information they received, the army was led by the infamous three Generals of the Crimson Empire. Since the main army was already divided into three, there shouldn’t be enough power to fight against twenty 10th-tier powerhouses at the same time. Besides, the Crimson Empire army should have more than enough Dwarven machines to face them. However, there shouldn't be enough time to move them for a defensive battle or to mount them on a wall. In a sense, there was no way this city could stand against them. What really worried him was the results. They were doing all these things based on the assumption that the owner of the taboo name wasn’t as powerful as they said. However, he didn’t understand why they were underestimating the revenge of the Crimson Empi
Alex floated toward the north using his magic. He wasn’t as weak as he once was when he passed through the Summer Palace city long ago. However, it was a lie to say that he wasn’t afraid. Their original battle plan was to separate their enemies by attacking the different parts of the Blood Baron Kingdom at the same time. Also, by using a portion of their units and the help of the Kingdom of Boria, they should have been able to delay the reinforcements from the other five kingdoms. Lady Helen was to show herself at the Dwarven mountain to create a distraction and intimidation. That wasn’t all. He was the one that took out the enemy scouts near the borders of the Crimson Empire with ease. Then he asked for the help of Lady Helen to take on the Wind Hold city to prevent any news from leaking to the rest of the city. He knew their enemies would realise the threat once the army was divided and Lady Helen fortified the Dwarven mountain. It all went as they planned, but he realised h
