SUMMON OF CHAOS

The King Has Been Named

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" 

"It is an empty space filled with utter silence"

there were no sign's of building or people and the atmosphere continued to grow heavy

The 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 surroundings with fear as he had just woken up from a dream that felt so real and horrifying. 

He kept reminiscing about the dream playing the scenario in his head over and over again, 

To him It was as if the dream was indeed a reality, 

The settings and the events seemed too real to think of as a dream. 

"!!!!!!:!!!!" 

He shifted his gaze to the entrance at the sudden sound and movement that was made, 

With fear Zarek reluctantly stood up from his bed to see what was causing that sound. 

He tiptoed to his destination and it felt like unseen people were watching monitoring his step from the darkness, 

He felt his head oozing and saw an imaginary image of a ghost smiling to his face. 

As he arrived on the stair's that led to the entrance hall he saw three figures,

One was sitting on what looked like a throne and the two standing at the right and left side of the throne. 

As dark as it was the bodies of the two that were standing shined beautifully and their eyes gleamed out red Aura while the one sitting had white hair with crimson eyes that seems to pierce through Zarek's mind. 

Zarek was baffled at how a throne appeared in his house but he was more furious with the sight of the three intruders who treated his house like it was theirs. 

He was about to yell for the guards when the voice spoke to him in a calm and composed manner.

[Do not bother yourself, everyone in your city is currently under an illusion. It does not matter what cries you make or how you make it they will not be waking up until I am through with you] 

"!?!?!?!¡¡¡?" 

Zarek's legs gave out and he collapsed on the floor,

He was unable to believe what he had just heard. 

The whole city population is about twenty thousand, 

Saying they casted an illusion magic on all twenty thousand was near impossible, nothing short of a lie. 

But the voice did not have a hint of it being a lie or a trick. 

What is more is that this being in his presence had the Aura of them being capable of doing that and more,

In fear of realizing the glimpse of what he his faced with Zarek shifted back in an attempt to escape but his back hit the wall,

He kept trembling in fear at what was going to happen to him as he racked his brain at who this people might be.

Zarek had a lot of enemies most especially from the elves, but the elves did not have the ability to pull something like this off, no it would be proper to say they can't. 

Zarek thought further for who would have malicious intent against him and also with the ability to pull something of this magnitude off but there was none. 

He suddenly remembered there was one and that was the Emperor but the Emperor had no reason to resort to assassination, he was a man who does what he wants when he wants so assassination was not his style and moreover his death would not benefit the Emperor in any way, 

Zarek is sure that the Emperor is not even aware of his existence.

As Zarek was immersing himself in his thoughts the sitting figure stood up and made his way up the stairs to where Zarek is. 

Zarek screamed for him to stay back and threw hand flings at him but it was useless,

The figure only made his way up further and when the figure was finally in sight Zarek was surprised at what he was seeing. 

Standing in his front is a beautiful boy that looked to be ten years of age, the boy held out his tiny hand and placed it on the still shaking Zarek's shoulder,

He then brought his head closer and spoke to Zarek in a voice that made him shudder,

[you know you are a very rotten man right? the very definition of a demon in human form no you are even worse than a demon] 

[that is also what attracted me to you, the perfect pawn for my game]. 

Zarek got on his knees and started pleading for his life with a trembling voice 

[please spare me, whatever it is you ask for I will provide it just do not kill me please I beg of you]

Even though what was in front of him is but a mere child he knew better than to underestimate him

[anything oo? alright Zarek you have yourself a deal, what I need is just two things if you can provide it for me then I promise to spare your life] 

Zarek heart was at ease as he heard the word spare,

At this point he was ready to do anything and everything as long as he was not going to be killed.

[what I need is simple, your last name and a first name for myself] 

Zarek face became clouded with surprise,

Through illegal means he had amassed an enormous amount of wealth so he thought the child was going to request for a magnificent sum or half of his wealth but a name,

He looked at the child as if to say please repeat yourself

[yes what I need is your last name and a name for myself if you can grant me this two I will spare your life] 

Zarek was dumbfounded but hearing the word spare shut off all forms of reasoning and he agreed.

[alright for the name I want you to say this " oh Demon Lord I  Bestow Upon You The Name Ophel" then you put your last name] 

Zarek who was not in his right thinking mind and only focused on the sentence "Spare your life" immediately did as he was told and he named the demon "Ophel Argyros". 

It was after the naming that Zarek knew he had been tricked,

He thought of why a person would want to have a name as a bargain, 

What would they gain in a name? 

If by chance he ends up using Zarek's name to commit crimes he could have just denied it after all its not signed on paper nor is it registered. 

So why in the hell would he request for something like a name? 

Then it dawned on him, 

Monsters are nameless beings and this entity before him referred to himself as a Demon. 

Naming a monster or a spiritual entity requires mana, 

The stronger the named is the more mana it will consume. 

If the one doing the naming does not have enough mana to complete the naming then the life force will be used as a replacement and that is what happened here,

The demon tricked Zarek into using his life force to name him but he realized the truth too late, 

Zarek's body began turning into light particles until there was nothing left.

The Demon who has just been named Ophel saw what became of Zarek and said

As expected he died, good thing I had a plan two for this kind of situation

"Demon summoning summon greater demon. 

A magic circle appeared on the ground where Zarek had been and a Demon with black wings came out of it. 

Ophel made a projectile of the dead Zarek and commanded the greater demon to change its appearance to match that of Zarek. The greater demon did as it was told.

[now that I have the first piece, it's time to throw the die].
