A deadly battle between Kain, Eran, and Barpus, the bandit leader who was an expert in using long chain weapons with sharp blades at the end. Eran, Kain, and Barpus were facing each other in the center of a silent cave hall filled with the scent of blood.
Eran stared into the cold eyes of the bandit leader, he could feel the evil energy emanating from the deadly weapon. "The weapon is very disturbing," he muttered, then glanced at Kain who was standing tall next to him."That's why I've been dodging," Kain replied firmly, holding his hammer tightly. He knew that this battle would be a difficult test for both of them.The bars laughed coldly, "You're just a bunch of confident mercenaries. You'll both die along with this village!" he said as he swung his long chain weapon deftly.Eran and Kain moved, coordinating with each other to attack the bandit leader from all directions. However, Barpus skillfully dodged each of their attacks, and his weapon spun quickly to formWith a face full of rage he threw his long chains at Kain, trying to trap him. However, Cain quickly raised his two hammers and blocked the chains perfectly. The two hammers emitted sparks as they collided with Barpus' long chains.Taneaya, seeing an opportunity to attack, rushed forward quickly toward Barpus. She arched her sword with lightning speed, trying to cut through Barpus' long chains. However, the agile Barpus managed to dodge in the blink of an eye and turned quickly to face Taneaya.Eran began to launch his attacks, trying to see through Barpus' small openings. Each move was quick and deadly, but it was difficult as the puffer man kept moving nimbly and dodged Eran's attacks nimbly.Kain, during this battle, felt the pressure increasing, his wounds aching again. Barpus' long chains continued to spin at high speed, creating a dangerous stretch that was difficult to dodge.Taneaya tried to keep her distance from Barpus. She knew that she
Again and again, she was devastated by the stories she heard about her family. Taneaya had no idea that behind the seeming peace and prosperity, the kingdom also had a very dark and nasty side.Taneaya was devastated by the fact that her eldest brother and the greatest person in her eyes, Prince Enid, was involved in a despicable crime. The prince, who was supposed to be an example and role model for his people, was involved in acts that violated the law and morality. A feeling of disappointment and heartbreak came over Taneaya as if the foundations of her beliefs about justice and royal dignity were shaken.At that moment, Taneaya realized that reality does not always match what she imagined. Enid, whom she had admired and trusted, had a very dark side. Taneaya pondered and tried to find answers within herself. She wondered if there was any way she could clear her kingdom's name and bring back justice and honor. However, there was no clear answer in her mind.
At the same time on the eastern side of the Kingdom of Berillan, the group of Theo, Uldor, Gorstag, and Catallina, were already on their way. They received a very important assignment from King Berillan to carry out a secret mission.The mission they received was to investigate the source of a mysterious disease that had recently spread in several parts of the kingdom. This bad news had already reached the ears of King Berillan, and he wanted to find the root of the problem. There were reports that the town of Blanchill was the starting point of this outbreak. The town was famous for being a city that lived off of fertile livestock.The plague became even more alarming when the symptoms of the disease were similar to what Theo's entourage encountered on their way to the royal palace. Their skin peeled off until their bones were exposed. The gruesome sight led the kingdom to give the Band of de Sun an investigative mission.They felt a sense of apprehension
Gorstag swore. "This forest makes my head float!" He covered his nose with a cloth. "The air is so humid, I don't like it!"Uldor glanced at Gorstag. "Keep your voice down! Our voices can be heard!" Uldor admonished in a whisper."That's right, this forest is very humid, there's a lot of moss growing on the ground and rocks," explained Theo, who walked ahead. "And I read in a book that Okren Forest used to be a hiding place for demons when they were expelled from the sky," Theo added.Theo, Uldor, and Gorstag walked slowly through the dense Okren forest. The sunlight grew dimmer as the towering trees covered the sky."Then you believe those obscure myths made up by the ancients?" asked Gorstag."Hmm...I believe everything written in the book because it was all based on previous people's experiences and stories," Theo replied."So you believe Iblis exist?" asked Gorstag again. Uldor just listened to the conversation between his tw
Gorstag wanted to vomit at the unnatural acting of his leader."I'm Hars, and this is Erwan," while pointing at the skinny man beside him then he pointed at the big man next to Erwan."The big one is Dapo."Theo bowed his head, then introduced himself, "Theo and the stupid man next to me is Gorstag and the quiet man is Uldor.""If we may know, which guild mission did you take?" asked Hars who was sitting across from Theo."From the Alku Guild in Alku Village. Well, you must have heard, for mercenaries who haven't taken a mission in a while. This assignment is the easiest while restoring our lost touch," Theo replied reassuringly."Have you not taken a mission in a while?" asked Erwan probingly.Theo let out a long sigh, then made a sad face. "To be more precise I... It's been almost 5 years since I took any mission, I took a long break." Theo paused his story for a moment and then continued, "That's because I got a really bad stomach wound during my first miss
Hars kept trying to distance himself from their pursuit, his heart beating hard in his chest. As he ran, his footsteps felt heavy, and his breathing was labored. The dense trees and bushes moved quickly around him, and the darkness of the night hung over them. Hars spoke to himself in a low voice, but filled with determination, "I must not let them get this. This is our faith!"He continued to run quickly, through the creeping bushes and towering trees. As he saw a small light shining faintly from a cave located in the distance, his sense of hope grew even more intense. It was the hiding place he had planned, a place where he hoped to find refuge from this pursuit.However, Theo, Uldor, and Gorstag were getting closer to Hars. The sound of their steps grew louder, rustling through the dense trees, as if they were shadows chasing Hars.Theo shouted to his friends, his voice carried by the cool night breeze, "Don't let him into that cave! We're almost there!"Uldor, wh
Hars pondered for a moment, his eyes moving between the gun Theo was holding and the host bottle in his hand. He knew that they would still pursue and would probably use force if necessary. With a sense of confusion shining in his eyes, Hars finally gave up.With trembling hands, Hars raised both hands and handed the host bottle to Theo. "Take it, but promise you won't kill me," he said in a voice full of fear.Theo accepted the host bottle carefully, examining the dark, twitching contents inside the glass bottle. It looked like a solid slime, writhing disgustingly as Theo scrutinized its contents. "What is this?" he asked with a serious expression.Hars glanced at Theo, trying to explain as clearly as possible despite his fear. "It's a host," he said, trying to give the necessary explanation. His voice trembled but was filled with determination to explain the situation as best he could.In the darkness of the cave that felt increasingly tense, Theo stood in front of the trembling Har
Catallina was in a state of deep melancholy at the moment, in the newly established refugee camps in the middle of the deadly plague-stricken city of Blanchill. The surrounding scenery made her heart feel heavy. The people in these camps were suffering, and there were screams of pain that filled the air. Victims were indiscriminate; there were men, women, small children, and even babies who were not spared from this plague. Catallina tried hard to hold back her tears, clenched her teeth, and swallowed saliva with difficulty.Lord Elias, the leader of the city of Blanchill, who had accompanied her, tried to provide some solace with his words, "Forgive us, my lady. We should have been able to entertain you in a much more pleasant atmosphere. I apologize profusely for this insult."Catallina turned to him with a look that radiated deep sadness, "There is no need to apologize, Lord Elias. I understand why the King sent me to this city."The two of them walked around the refugee camp ful
