In the Sabira mountain lies a Dungeon.
This dungeon is home to high level monsters and the adventurers call it the death dungeon. Adventurers below A rank are not authorized to go in and even the A rank adventurers are largely advised to go with a party.To make everyone understand the threat and dangers this dungeon posed to adventures at large they ranked it S, They also placed a huge signboard at the entrance signifying danger. The Rank And Threat LevelF-E= 10/99D-C= 100/999B= 1,000/9,999A= 10,000/99,999S-SS-SSS= 100,000In a place like that a historic moment is taking place, A being shaped like a human covered in white exoskeleton, the shoulder down to the elbow is painted red and the wrist also red, the head shaped like oval emitting red mist from its eyes, at the side of its body is four horizontal red stripes starting at the armpit sides and ending at the waist.This mysterious being walks through the dungeon's entrance with elegance and not a hint of fear in his eyes,Tracing the entrance down to the more open view of the dungeon where the monsters made their abode. Getting to the inside of the dungeon a viper snake 30 meters long tried to attack Acestes, Acestes however caught the head of the snake with one arm he then slammed it on the floor of the dungeon. The viper snake exploded with the body and blood scattering in every direction but the assault did not end there, The smaller snakes all swarmed towards Acestes, Seeing this Acestes punched the dungeon floor causing it to crumble, The smaller snakes struggled while falling down the pit made by Acestes. He jumped over the crumbled floor to the safe side as he then continued his journey.On the second floor Acestes came across a large wild bear, The bear swung its paws at Acestes but it was caught midway by Acestes left hand,Then Acestes used his right hand to punch a hole in the bear's stomach.Getting to his destination Acestes stopped in his track to view his target. A voice spoke to him[ohoohoh so you are the one causing trouble in my domain].Standing before Acestes is a cluster of spiders,They include Lesser, Greater, Arch, and the Queen Taratect.The Lesser Taratect number is in the thousands, The Greater Taratect were ten, While the Arch were four and one Queen.The reason this dungeon is called the death dungeon is mainly centered on the Queen's massive army, The adventurers who end up reaching this path of the dungeon were all killed by either the Greater or Arch Taratect with none having survived enough to challenge the Queen.[I am Acestes and I have come here to subjugate you on the orders of my king]. Hearing this made the Queen Taratect furious as she with no hesitation ordered her army to dispose of the intruder. Acestes wasting no time dashed straight to the Queen with an astonishing speed, One that was too fast for all the Taratects to react upon, well except the Queen herself, She used instacast to make a barrier to protect herself with, Acestes fist shattered the barrier but before he could reach for her,A barrel of mana bullet casted by the Queen was heading straight for him from the side ways,To counter this Acestes jumped up thinking the mana bullets would clash together then explode but it was not so, The mana bullets changed direction and continued following Acestes,He brought forth lightning from his left hand using it to cancel out the mana bullets, While still above Acestes spinned his body in a circular form then aimed his leg at the Queen,She fortified herself with multiple barriers to tank the incoming attack, Acestes then applied lightning to his bod while body to further enhance his distruction force,The kick connected with the multiple barriers then completely shattered it,Without wasting anytime Acestes landed on the Queen's back then covered his hand with lightning and aimed it at the Queens head,[you have two options get killed by me right here and now or submit yourself to my King] Acestes reasons for avoiding the other Taratect was so he would not kill them since his initial aim was to make them submissive to his King he wanted to keep their numbers as it is.The Queen who noticed it realized that this person was not even fighting at his full power to begin with,She who was feared by adventurers as death itself is now being looked down upon by her fellow monster who seemed to possess even more terrifying strength. She gulped at the thought of who could be the king of this nightmare that dawned on her. I will personally recruit the Queen Taratect"Is what I said at the last meeting, But Acestes voiced out saying the King should not be allowed to work when he has subordinates who are capable of doing it for him,After saying that he then volunteered himself to recruit the Queen. I appreciate his loyalty but will the Queen not be too much work for him,When I read the full reports on her I had an idea of how powerful she is, If the others had not agreed with Acestes then I might have not allowed him to go by himself, even if he has grown stronger with the evolution does not mean he should underestimate his opponent. Those are the thoughts swirling at the back of my mind,This will be a lesson for him when he comes running right back after seeing the opponents strength.Putting that aside, I shifted my eyes to the map that was pasted in front of the conference table. Achlys has done a wonderful job of sketching out the geographical structure of the south including the capital city of the empire. I marveled at the size of the map and how it contained only details on the south,It is at least twice the size of earth and all this is ruled by one empire. But no rush I am a demon and lifespan is infinite,I will slowly crumble it from the inside out before aiming for the head. Saying that I threw a needle at a spot who happens to be my first territory capture in this game of chess. Edevin is a flourishing city under Count Zarek, A man who is involved in all kinds of illegal actd such as trafficking slaves, rape, indiscriminate killing and many more. He is the very incarnation of corruption and evil and I happen to be the Demon who will bestow upon him the punishment he deserves."!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "It is an empty space filled with utter silence"there were no sign's of building or people and the atmosphere continued to grow heavyThe glistening of the Sun could not be seen and the arrays of the moon vanished leaving inyl the shadows to roam. In the midst of the emptiness is a robust man with a luxurious pajamas. This man ran for his dear life,He had no idea of where he was or where he was heading to but he knew he had to run. Even though it was too dark to see anything he could still feel it, The overwhelming presence that was tailing him with every step he takes and so he ran as far as his legs could take him. Eventually his robust body gave out as he fell down on his face, A hand large enough to grab his whole body stretched out of the darkness and the man screamed as loud as he could before waking up.He woke up from his bed with deep gasp, He could feel his body sweating profusely and his heart on the verge of collapse. Zarek surveyed his surroun
It is a fine morning but not being able to savour the nights unconsciousness is frustrating. Laying in the comfy bed I closed my eyes through dawn hoping I would fall asleep in my newly acquired mansion,The result however was the same as when I was in the ant's colony.I stood up to go to the side of the window,Getting there I basked in the sun as I view my fief from out the window. This past few days have been really fulfilling I thought. After recruiting the insects and the sub insectsinto the colony (the spider family and the Bee family), I gave the two queen names like Mia and Luna.With the both of them joining our ranks the colony's power has increased threefold and so I made them a part of the executive's so thanks for their willful enlistment. The Taratect queen is in charge of producing silk with her webs,Even though the colony does not need clothes, I plan on importing it to Edevin the city I inherited from Count Zarek. The Queen Bee is in charge of producing honey
Bellrath forest,A wide woodland is the dwelling place for the elves. For centuries intruders have come seeking the resources the Bellrath forest has to offer but they have all been purged away by the elves. With their life longevity their traditions and culture have been well maintained and preserved.The elves are known for their exceptional weapon proficiency amongst all the other race.Legend also has it that the first queen of the elves was one of the three gods of creation signified by her emarald green eyes,That is why the royals who her the direct descendants of the queen also have green emarald eyes.The elven royals have a very large mana pool especially the queen,Before the reign of the current emperor the elven queen and the beast king were considered the most powerful and domineering in the southern continent.The abilities the elven royals inherited from the first queen are,The emarald eyes,The effect of the emarald eyes is perfect illusion, an ability that places a
This is a serious dilemma,I knew the other Lord's would be dissatisfied with my appointment but them declaring war was out of my calculations,I have been too affected by the norms of earth that I forgot this is not earth,War is a normal occurrence here,Survival of the fittest is what reigns. If I had to best describe this world I would call it a jungle where physical prowess reigns the highest. When I was summoned it was in a pool of blood and I had decayed bodies close to me. That is what the norms of this world is. "Damn it"!!!! In a rush to take over Edevin I forgot about what the other Lord's are capable of. Sending Acestes to wipe them out would be declaring to the world that I am not normal and I do not want that,All the cards are not ready yet, Going against my target in my current state would lead to a bad ending for me. [Everett is there any lord that would be willing to form an alliance with me] [ none that I can think of my lord, your background will most defin
Four days after leaving their various city,The Lord's army arrived at a valley of a day walk to Edevin. In there they set up their camp to strategize their method of attack.At the biggest tent sits the three Count's in a circled formation with Dian Vosloo chosen to be the acting leader of the expenditure. [when do you all propose we attack] [ is there even a need to discuss such things, as we all know the city right now is defenseless against our numbers] [Zareks neglection towards the army has made most of them quit and there is no knights, I am sure the people in the city will end up opening the city gates for us as anyone with good view can see this is a hopeless fight] [ alright then at daybreak tomorrow we will take over Edevin] [so how do we split the spoils] [we will settle that after we take it over]. After talking to the guild master he promised to help persuade the adventurers to volunteer but he did say that the entire decision still rests on them.I gave him a bou
The flame hands that were at the back of the Fire Spirit King launched at Ophel while still in midair,Ophel casted ice pillar and ice grew from the ground upon where Ophel was in midair blocking the flame hands, Ophel then casted ice lance and from Ophel's front a gigantic ice in a lance shape came out and headed straight for the fire king,The fire king seeing this stretched out his right hand and used it to ward of the Lance, Upon making impact with the ice lance fire came out of the Fire king's right hand and vaporized the ice. After Ophel had sent the ice lance towards the fire king he descend to the ground then had his two legs in a sprinting position pushing Ophel forward,The space made sounds of cracking as Ophel pushed himself forward with a never seen before like speed, Ophel came out of the smoke caused by the vaporizing ice and set his fist against the fire king,But the fire king dodged it with his left hand.A series of hand to hand exchange occurred between the both
The Lord's army began banging their weapons on the ground,A form of intimidation tactics to make the enemy understand the threat they pose and the invigority running through their veins. Sure enough the defense guards were all shrieking in fear,With low wages and worn out weapons,Honestly they have no reason to stand on the front lines to defend the city but they still upheld their title as warriors sworn to lay their lives for the people, That alone is commendable of them. One of the Lord's army came out and stood at the front of the army with a warhorn,He blew into the warhorn once and the archers came out in a vertical line of three,They strung their bows with fire lit in the arrow heads and shot it at the guards standing at the fortress walls. Edevin defense corps casted shield magic and transparent shield appeared to defend the fortress troops,The shield could not fully cover all the guards and some were hit by the arrows,Echoes of cries were heard within the fortress w
I watched as Ignatius (Fire Elemental King) wreck havoc in what was supposed to be a battle,His expression has anger written all over it probably because I forced him into a slave contract.It is really not my fault,All I did was summon an Elemental,I had no idea that a Fire Elemental King,the strongest of all fire elementals was going to be the one to answer my call. He could have just refused and not heed to my summonbut apparently Elemental spirits are unable to manipulate a summoning ritual,It is only until after being summoned that said Elemental can refuse forming a contract with the summoner. Of course the summoner can make use of force to get the Elemental to do its bidding like I did but that would mean having a higher level of power than the Summoned Elemental spirit which is very rare,I mean why would I want to summon something weaker than me in the first place, If it was not due to my circumstances I would not have even tried summoning.I think I might be overesti
