Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 14 : HOWARD …
CHAPTER 14 : HOWARD …Howard stood his ground, eyes locked on Zharok, the weight of the battle pressing on his shoulders. The air crackled with dark energy, swirling ominously around the necromancer. Despite his exhaustion, Howard refused to back down. He gritted his teeth, forcing himself to rise, even as Zharok loomed over him, dark magic pulsing at his fingertips."You without your creation… are nothing," Howard spat, his voice sharp, taunting.Zharok’s eyes burned with hatred. The taunt struck deep. His control over the battlefield had been slipping ever since Howard and Loren destroyed the spider, and now, with that single sentence, Howard had struck a nerve. The necromancer’s fury exploded.“How dare you!” Zharok roared, his voice like thunder as he thrust his staff toward Howard. “I am the greatest necromancer in existence! You are an insect compared to me!”He slammed his staff into the ground, sending cracks through the earth. From the fissures, tendrils of pure shadow erupt
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 15 : THE SECOND CRYSTAL
CHAPTER 15 : THE SECOND CRYSTALLoren’s heart pounded in his chest as he strained against the thick cobwebs that held him fast. His legs were immobile, trapped in the sticky threads spun by Zharok's monstrous spider. He could feel the suffocating weight of panic creeping in, his breath shallow as he stared helplessly at the skeleton army approaching him. They moved with a terrifying precision, their empty eye sockets glowing with an eerie light, their weapons raised high, glinting in the dim light of the cavernous chamber.The clatter of bones echoed ominously as they drew closer, their skeletal hands gripping swords, spears, and axes. Loren's pulse quickened, desperation filling his veins. Every inch of his body screamed for him to break free, to move, but the web clung to him like iron shackles. His sword was just beyond reach, lying on the ground beside him, taunting him with its closeness. Yet, it may as well have been a mile away."Not like this..." Loren muttered to himself, his
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 16 : DRAGON’S BLOOD
CHAPTER 16 : DRAGON’S BLOOD“There is no shame in failure, young one.” the chimera’s voice rumbled deeply, resonating within Loren’s very core.Each word seemed to stir something ancient inside him, something raw and powerful. The chimera’s presence was overwhelming, not just in size but in the sheer weight of wisdom and authority it carried. Its eyes gleamed, full of secrets and forgotten knowledge. “But you still have much to learn. Your heart is strong, filled with sincerity and kindness, but strength alone will not be enough for the battles ahead.”Loren could feel the weight of the chimera's words pressing down on him, the truth in them undeniable. His legs trembled slightly as he stood before the beast, but he held his ground. He had come so far, faced so much, but the chimera was right. Zharok had escaped, and the second crystal was in enemy hands. Loren’s heart pounded with frustration and guilt. He had failed.Before he could speak, before he could express the maelstrom of e
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 17 : THE ELF’S RETREAT
CHAPTER 17 : THE ELF’S RETREATThe battle against the Death Knight had left Vy and Anfalen battered and broken, their hearts heavy with the weight of their loss. Nelaeryn, their closest friend, had fallen in the heart of the dragon temple. Her life had been taken by the relentless force of the Death Knight, an enemy they had barely managed to drive back. Though they had survived, it felt like a hollow victory, and the cost had been unbearable.As the smoke from the battlefield cleared, Vy stood over Nelaeryn’s lifeless body, her chest heaving from exertion, her twin swords still dripping with the black blood of the Death Knight. Her hands shook, not from fatigue, but from the overwhelming realization that no amount of skill, fury, or power could bring back their friend. The moment felt frozen in time. The once-sacred temple, now desecrated by the battle, seemed to mock them with its silence. The wind rustled through the broken pillars and toppled statues, the only sound in the afterma
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 18 : THE CROSSROADS
CHAPTER 18 : THE CROSSROADSAnfalen woke to the soft sound of a blade slicing through the air. At first, he thought it might be an intruder, his instincts sharpened from years of battle, but as his senses cleared, he realized it was Vy. She was training again, by the lake this time. He sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, watching her for a moment. The first light of dawn reflected off the surface of the water, and Vy’s silhouette moved with fierce intensity, her twin swords cutting through the morning mist like shadows in motion.They had fought side by side for years, but this... this was different. Anfalen had never seen her so consumed by anger, by frustration. It was as if the Death Knight hadn’t just wounded her body but had left a deeper scar on her soul, a shadow she couldn’t shake. Her movements were precise, sharper than ever before, but there was a wildness in them too, a fury that threatened to consume her entirely.He watched her for a few minutes, the steady rhythm o
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 19 : HOWARD’S SCAR
CHAPTER 19 : HOWARD’S SCARAfter travelling for a long time, Loren, Howard, and Anne finally settled by a gentle riverbank, the water glistening in the afternoon sunlight. The scent of the forest around them was calming, a stark contrast to the fierce battle they’d recently survived against Zharok. Exhausted and nursing injuries, they sank to the ground, relieved to have a moment of peace.They sat in silence for a few moments, each of them lost in their own thoughts as the river flowed steadily beside them, its gentle sound comforting against the heaviness of their recent experiences. Anne noticed the bruises and cuts on her companions and knelt beside them, hands hovering over their wounds.“I can’t just sit and watch you both suffer. Let me help.” she said softly.Closing her eyes, she began to chant, her voice blending with the gentle rustle of leaves. A warm glow emanated from her hands, bathing Loren and Howard in soft light as the healing spell mended their bruises and soothed
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 20 : BONDS FORGED IN STEW
CHAPTER 20 : BONDS FORGED IN STEWThe three fell into a comfortable silence, each lost in their own thoughts. The cool evening air was filled with the soft murmuring of the river nearby, and the fading light painted the sky in hues of pink and lavender. For a brief moment, they could pretend they were simply travelers at rest, not warriors bearing the weight of the battles behind and the struggles yet to come.Their quiet moment was abruptly broken by a loud growl that rumbled from Howard’s stomach, making him blush and chuckle sheepishly. Anne and Loren burst out laughing, their laughter filling the forest around them. It was a sound they hadn’t heard often enough in recent days.“Well, I guess it’s been a while since any of us have had a proper meal, if only there were some wild boar around here…” Howard said, grinning and patting his stomach. “If you two can gather the ingredients, I’ll make us something delicious. After all you’ve both been through, it’s the least I can do!” Anne
Holy War : Wish Crystal CHAPTER 21 : GEARFOLK
CHAPTER 21 : GEARFOLKGearfolk, a town as vibrant as it is, hums with the ceaseless rhythm of machinery, its streets filled with the hiss and clank of steam-powered engines. Built upon layers of steel and stone, this unique city is split into two distinct realms: the upper rank, where those blessed with resources and status reside in gleaming metal towers, and the lower rank, a gritty, smoke-shrouded district where people survive amid the clutter of worn-out machines and improvised inventions. The town’s heartbeat, both hopeful and haggard, pulses through its winding streets and hidden corners, where the stark disparities between the ranks become painfully clear.In the upper rank, life is an endless chain of improvements, a testament to engineering mastery and mechanical wonders. The streets are spacious and clean, lined with storefronts displaying polished gadgets, exquisite brass, and chrome fixtures that reflect the golden light of carefully maintained street lamps.
