Location: Scortha fields

With the little baby Jupio tied against him, Charles works the fields in the blazing heat just like everyone else. Many struggle to simply breathe, but Charles perseveres through it.

Though the little one tied against him isn’t so strong.

Jupio starts to cry, so I look at her and say, “Please bear with it.”

But unable to understand my words, she continues to cry. I look up with a face of worry as I know what is about to happen next.

A beastkin walks up to me and kicks me in my shin, causing me to kneel, then, grabbing my head, he smashes my face into the dirt a few times.

After he finishes, he pulls me by my hair towards his face, and says, “You see that is how that baby's constant cries feel to my ears. It isn’t nice, is it?”

Coughing, as I try to get air, I say, “No.”

“Then make sure I don’t hear it anymore, because every bit of pain I feel, so will you.”

Jupio starts to cry even louder than before, and due to this, I see the beastkin

    -Break-With his hands pressed against the ground of his monster truck, Iancu takes a series of deep breaths as he turns his head and sees the chessboard behind him decimated, with almost half of the pieces lying on the ground.He feels a surge of pain run through his body, and stares at his hands where his gloves have been ripped, and his flesh beneath them broken and gushing blood.He turns his head to the side, where he sees the Gynėjas siblings celebrating and, along with Cara, Orb, and Ikaras, all lying on the ground utterly exhausted.Zbur, standing by the mike, says, "38 minutes have passed since this match began, and the slaughter has ended. Ever since their captain's last goal, the Knightmares have been in a never-ending blockade by those six ogres. It is utterly devastating how much they are getting their butts whooped into the ground."Ivana, rubbing her head, says, "This is my fault, this is my fault! I shouldn't have picked this strategy and should have used Maple and Cyr

    Iancu falls to the ground, as he stares at the pieces behind himself, and says, "I can't teleport across the machine to block those strikes."Orb, holding his belly on the floor, says, "Sorry!"Dumnorix, moving over to him, helps Orb up and says, "No point in apologising. We didn't plan for Pink coming up."Ikaras falling from the sky says, "I heard you guys said that they completely dominated the field, but I didn't expect this?"Orb says, "Back during the match with the Marys, the ball didn't make it back towards Žudrė until all members of the team fell back."Cara says, "That's not possible for us.""I can fly back here to support everyone."Dumnorix says, "No chance of that happening. If you fall back, we won't have a strong midfielder. The wall Pia set up is still everywhere across the ground. I simply cannot move as freely as you with all those walls."Iancu says, "So we just stay here and become overwhelmed. Especially when they're willing to play dirty like that. Orb, if you c

    Through Pia's mind, his body can feel all the movement on the ground around him; in this moment, every aspect of the pitch is fully bound to his mind. "No defence can protect you."He tosses the ball into the ground right beneath Žudrė's monster truck, and then he says, "Arise!"Beneath the truck, a series of small pillars appear, and the ball bounces from one to another again and again. Then, all around the ground, little cannons made of earth appear and from inside them, boulders are shot right towards each side of the monster truck.Valerio says, "Isn't this cheating? I thought you were only allowed to use the ball to strike down the pieces?"Ivana says, "No, this is Pia's speciality! In cursed chess, you're only allowed to attack people within a certain area from the ball, so he traps the ball beneath the given monster trucks, and then uses that as a loop hole to send a series of boulders towards the truck causing immense damage to all of it's operation, and breaking it's structur

    Reeling her arm back, Žudrė releases it forward at full speed, but as she does, Ikaras flies through the sky and catches it. "The sky is my domain."Žudrė clicks her tongue, and Ikaras quickly throws it towards Pumnpiatră, who assimilates his body with the ground beneath him, and grows into a giant form to catch the ball."Let's test how strong your wall is."He covers the ball in a giant boulder and throws it towards the monster truck in front of him, and Žudrė manifests another shield that blocks the boulder and breaks it apart completely."It seems pointlessness is part of your strategy."She tries to catch the ball from the open boulder, and Mõõk quickly rushes towards one of the fragments of the boulder that fly across the sky and kicks it towards the ball, knocking it back over towards Pumnpiatră."Pia, try again!" Mõõk says.Pia, grabbing the ball, says, "Of course, I didn't think of letting it end there!"Pia quickly manifests a large boulder over the ball, and then plunges hi

    Both teams stand on the 160m by 120m pitch, with the crowd screaming towards them, pumped for the match to begin.On the Knightmares' side, Iancu rides the monster truck in the back, acting as the Knightmares' goalkeeper, Pumnflacără and Orb stand a little in front of him with Pumnflacără on the right, and Orb on the left, acting as defenders. Dumnorix stands on the right of the midfield, with Ikaras standing in between the Orb and Dumnorix. Finally, both Pumnpiatră and Mõõk stand as the two forwards of the team.On the Bloody Mary's side, Žudrė rides the monster truck in the back as the goalkeeper, with Pink as the sole defender. Green, Yellow, and Blue stand in the midfield, with Red and White standing ahead of them as the strikers, on the left and right wings respectively.As per tournament rules, the team which has knocked down the most pieces in the season up to this point gets the first advantage and claims the ball. So as he holds the ball in his hands, Red says, "Let's destroy

  • Arc 11.77: Knightmares Vs Distorted Sky part 1

    Žudrė grits her teeth and says, "It seems he is still standing."In front of her, Mõõk, Ikaras, Pumnflacără, Pumnpiatră, Orb, Dumnorix, and Iancu stand facing them, with Orb, Iancu, and Dumnorix all in shorts and jerseys. Iancu stands on their monster truck, which is a quadrupedal machine with a giant platform that resembles a castle, and four pillars, along with their chess piece placed all across the board.Zbur shouts, "WHAT IS THIS! FOR SOME REASON, THE KNIGHTMARES HAVE SWITCHED OUT THREE OF THEIR MEMBERS FOR STRANGERS! THIS IS ODD, PERCULIUR, DERANGED, PHASTAMGORIC!"The crowd shouts as their anxiety and confusion bring their screams to the forefront. Some of them are filled with excitement at the unexpected events, some are filled with rage as their favourites have been benched, while others just copy the energy of everyone around them.The three ministers watching from a distance look on with confusion as Dragoste enters the room. Stiprais, turning to him, says, "Looks like a m
