The tension in the room was palpable as everyone fell silent for a moment, pondering the implications of what they had heard. Catallina stepped up to the Temple Priest gently, realizing the weight of the responsibility the man carried.
"Are the shards dangerous?" asked Catallina.The priest took a deep breath and let out a long exhale. "Very dangerous," looked Catallina seriously then continued, "From the shard of this barbaric creature, those who possess it will gain evil powers and be able to get in touch with the devil, with his trickery he will grant all the wishes of the owner, once they are fully affected, the Devil will feed on his soul and take over his body."Theo was curious and asked. "You said that the shards are scattered all over the world. I wonder, what would happen if all the demon shards were collected?""The events of 100 years ago will repeat themselves, a world full of deceit, evil and culminating in a time of darknessThat night, the Band of the Sun reunited at the inn after a grueling day. The atmosphere of their room was tense, with the tension they could not escape as the growing plague became a dark shadow that stalked their every step. The previously quiet room was now filled with deep uncertainty and worry.They sat around a large wooden table with worried expressions on their faces. In the center of the table, several maps and notes were scattered, reflecting their persistent efforts to unravel this deepening mystery. A heavy silence enveloped the room, like the shadows of a night rampant outside the window.Catallina, with eyes that reflected tension, finally decided to reveal what was on her mind. Her voice sounded serious as she spoke, "That priest... he might be right. I saw something odd when I met General Dorgs."Theo, with his smile that often showed deep thought, responded, "What did you see?"Catallina, her face filled with doubt, replie
Theo and Catallina arrived at the door of Lord Elias' room. A sense of tension floated in the air when they saw the five guards at the ready, their weapons glowing in the light of the torches displayed on the walls of the room.In a corner of the richly decorated room, there was an old man they recognized as General Dorgs, who stood beside Lord Elias as his protector. The seriousness of the situation was evident on their faces.Catallina, without hesitation and with a firm voice full of anger, voiced her objection, "Lord Elias, what you are planning is an unforgivable crime!"Lord Elias, who was sitting quietly behind a large table, looked at them sarcastically. He said in a cold voice, "What is it, princess? You come into my room without permission and immediately get angry. Do you not know your manners?"Theo, who was standing beside Catallina, replied in a loud voice, "We've come to stop the cruel act you're going to commit tomorrow nig
They arrived near the casualty posts breathlessly, but soon there was a clatter of steps and weapons poised before them. In front of their entourage, a line of city soldiers stood at attention, their sharp eyes looking at the intruders with suspicion."I'm sorry but..." unfinished with his words, Tobias who was running ahead suddenly broke off his words and abruptly launched a swift attack, slashing the head of the first soldier who came his way. The soldier's body drooped lifelessly, while the first blood of the battle littered the ground, soon his head fell to the ground rolling towards the group of soldiers.Then, without hesitation, Uldor and Gorstag followed his lead, welcoming this attack as the inevitable sign of battle. Uldor held his sword tightly and with fluid movements, he turned the weapon and stabbed the body of the warrior who tried to avoid him. Blood splashed and soiled their armor.On the other side, Gorstag angrily swung his great
The light of the torches hanging on the walls reflected brightly on the sword weapons of the guards they faced, creating a more dramatic atmosphere. The room that had been a place of debate was now a battleground.The guards sworn to Lord Elias surrounded the two Band of de Sun members in a tight formation. Five well-trained guards, dressed in shiny armor, were ready for the uninvited arrival of Theo and Catallina. Their gleaming weapons were sharp, ready to stop any suspicious movement.The battle began with a surprise attack from one of the guards, his weapon streaking towards Theo. With quick reflexes, Theo dodged the attack, pushed the guard back, and delivered a small blow to his body. The guard staggered, and Catallina who was standing behind him immediately attacked with a succession of arrows, knocking one of the guards to the floor. They managed to break the cage.Catallina struggled against the other two guards. She shot an arrow at the foremost soldie
In the battle that was reaching a tense point between Catallina and Dorgs, Catallina began to feel fatigue slowly creeping deep into her body. The constant onslaught of attacks from the Dorgs, who seemed to know no surrender, was pressing in on her with frightening speed and precision.Catallina, her breath coming in short gasps, with a tone of recognition revealed in her words, "You are like a battle tool that never gets tired!"Dorgs continued to press Catallina with his sword strikes, creating pressure that forced the girl to move and dodge with difficulty. He tried to taunt them with a scathing question, "Why do you keep dodging, princess? Has the crossbow in your right hand run out of ammunition?"This time, Catallina no longer dodged. With great determination, she tried to parry Dorgs' greatsword, but fate seemed to dictate another fate, and Catallina's sword broke in the clash.Anxiety struck Catallina, and Dorgs immediately seized
The ongoing duel between Theo and Lord Elias was an increasingly inflamed battle, becoming a battleground between good and evil, light and darkness. They both engaged in a fierce duel, swinging their swords with an incredible level of skill.Theo, wielding a thin sword that emitted a bluish glow that reflected off the metal of the blade, let the blade flicker in the air as he quickly swung it, attempting to strike Lord Elias.Meanwhile, Lord Elias, with his sword coated in an aura of darkness, met Theo's attacks with ferocious retorts. Each swing of his sword emitted a wave of darkness, attempting to extinguish the light emitted by Theo's sword.Theo shouted with electrifying determination, "You won't succeed, Lord!"Lord Elias, with a dark voice and eyes that radiated awesomeness, responded, "You can't stop me, Theo!"Their battle continued, both dodging each other's attacks with ingenuity and agility. The flash of their swords
Theo and Catallina stared at the injured Lord Elias, and curiosity filled their minds. Lord Elias, feeling defeated and his strength waning, finally decided to speak."You guys... you must want to know, right?" sighed Lord Elias.Theo and Catallina looked at each other, expectantly."Yes," Theo replied carefully, "we want to know why you're doing all this."Catallina joined in, a curious expression gracing her face, "And why did you create this plague?"Lord Elias paused for a moment, searching for the right words. "I did this... to revive my two children... and my wife."Theo was shocked. "Your children and your wife?"Catallina also expressed her confusion, "But why in such a cruel way?"Lord Elias felt very remorseful. "Iblis... Iblis gave me a chance. He said that he could bring them back to life, but on one condition... a sacrifice of 100 lives. He... he wanted human lives as sacrifices."
Theo was still motionless on the floor of the dark room, his ragged breathing was a witness to the tension that had yet to dissipate and his body was still trembling, torn apart by the effects of the black mist that had just enveloped them, leaving strange traces that still writhed in his mind.That black mist, like a whip of darkness, almost overwhelmed their bodies, making them like puppets in the clutches of an unfathomable evil force.Theo tried hard to ease the restlessness in his chest, trying to harmonize the rhythm of his panting breaths with the still-beating heartbeat. Anxiety still grazed his skin, but he knew that victory was just around the corner. Slowly, he turned his head to look for Catallina who was so important in their adventure.Theo's tone was one of shock and gratitude. "We did it, Cat," he said, his voice trembling with overwhelming emotion.Theo rose with some difficulty, his steps toward Catallina who still lay on
