The Elderien Chronicles Job
The carriage pulled up in front of a large house with a heavy-looking door. Like most houses in Pyra, the house had no compound of its own. The design of the streets and the houses were some of the things that amazed Blaize at the very beginning. They were good enough to catch his attention. Was that his wandering mind working, or was it his training from the Elderien's keep doing its wonders? He did not know. And he could not tell.Blaize and Victoria stepped out of the carriage. She was looking extremely ravishing in her blue dress. Her hair was nicely done and the smell of her perfume filled the air. She looked like an angel and when Blaize pulled up to her side, with equal valor, he started to realize that perhaps, he felt more for her than he allowed himself to admit."I gotta say, we look good tonight." She whispered to him as all eyes ravished them. They had not even gotten to the door yet but they were already making rounds.Lord Karl, whom they were meeting was hosting a part
The Elderien Chronicles Job (2)
Blaize and Victoria sat there in silence as Karl went on about what could be the profit of the job and the risks associated with it. He was saying so many things at the same time but Blaize's mind was fixated on Victoria. She was angry, she did not want to be there but he had forced her. Perhaps that would be their first fight But what could he have done? Let such an amount of money pass him by? He was not ready to make such a choice and since he needed money more than he ever had, he needed to take the job as well. Victoria could be annoyed, but even she had her eyes on the prize."So, you see? Nothing would go wrong on this job. I promise you." Karl said with a smile and Victoria Chuckled."Yeah? I have heard that before." She said to him but he did not reply. He frowned at her while she leaned in closer. "If this job is as easy as you say, then why didn't you use your men? I am certain you can come up with some of your people to do the job. Why did you ask for me?" She asked him.
The Elderien Chronicles Frenemy
"It was two years ago. Karl and I had a job to do. We were to smuggle some substances known as High rents into the city. Now these substances were very deadly and they could induce madness in the minds of people who took them, but they were also very capable of easing pain and making you live out your fantasies in your head. A powerful means of escape..."Victoria began as she lay beside Blaize, her head resting on his chest. They were covered with the large bed cloth on Victoria's extremely large bed and the warmth their bodies provided against each other was good enough to make them feel cozy. Blaize slowly stroke her hair as she continued her story."The government had taken an interest in High rent for a while. We knew they would shut us down soon but we kept snuggling anyway. Soon, there was a decree for a mass cleansing of the city. Anyone found in possession of high rent was whipped severely and thrown in prison and whosoever it was that was found selling them would be killed o
The Elderien Chronicles Peace
Julian chuckled when he saw Blaize and so did the two other men with him. He walked closer to Blaize and looked at him amusingly."I heard being a punching bag has actually done you some good in this place. News about you is all over the city. 'The newcomer'..." He made a gesture. "...who has been railing up the best men in the ring and giving people nightmares. Who would have thought you would do something that significant?"Julian said and that made Alastair very angry. He shot Julian a glare, dropped the reigns he was holding, and got off the cart. By that time, Victoria had noticed the drama that was about to go down."I don't know, it seems like you want to receive a special treat from the newcomer treatment. I would be very happy to oblige to that and give you a beating of your life." Blaize said to Julian who just scoffed at him."You think they call me the Calvary for nothing? I would love to see you try."He dared and Blaize was about to take a step closer to punch him in the
The Elderien Chronicles Story
Night came upon them faster than they had anticipated. By that time, they were already traversing the woods which according to Victoria, led directly outside Arynthion. According to her, there were also wolves in the wood and because of that, she suggested that they spent the night there.The air was cold and Serene by the time they had finished making a fire. A tent for Victoria was erected and since Blaize did not trust Julian enough to let him guard the carriage while he slept, he decided to join them to spend the night there.He was fairly certain that was also the reason why Julian did not set up a tent. They all say around the fire and ate in silence as the food and meat they had brought along circulated around them. The silence was choking and haunting. It was making Blaize uncomfortable and the same was with everyone else."Oh, come on. Did someone die here? Let's lighten up the mood shall we?" Julian complained and took a large gulp from the wineskin he has been holding all t
The Elderien Chronicles Transport
"I have a feeling you have affiliations with mages. In fact, I think you are one of them."Julian's words took Blaize by surprise. He knew he had to counter it immediately before the rest of the persons there lost their minds."You came here with skills greater than what we have ever seen. You have been getting unusually lucky in your fights. Hell, you even managed to charm Victoria. You are doing magic. It is not just luck. Come on, show us something. Don't hide the magic all to yourself."Julian was persistent. But Blaize did not make any unusual responses."If I was a mage, I would not be here speaking with you. I would have killed you already. You are a fucking pain in my ass." He cursed at Julian who just scoffed."Then, where do you come from? You have been trying to avoid this conversation since you got here. You never speak about your past. There is something significant that you are hiding and I want to know what it is. We want to know." Victoria suddenly blurted out and Blai
The Elderien Chronicles Jewelry
Her shaky breath was the major thing that held Blaize's attention, and the fact that he could see a person inside the box and not pieces of jewelry made him confused even more. What was going on? Where were the jewelries? But Lord Karl did not really specify if the treasures were jewelry, did he? Was he aware of this? Of course, he was. He had set them up. He knew what they were transporting and he knew they probably would not have agreed to transport a live human out of the City without asking more questions. But Blaize wondered how the girl managed to survive in such an enclosed space. He slipped in some light again and viewed the interior of the carriage better. There was nothing different from what he had seen before. And there was nothing shiny in there t suggest there was a single piece of jewelry. The light traveled up and Blaize could see the little slit at the roof of the carriage, barely noticeable. There were about five of such on different parts of the roof. So, that wa
The Elderien Chronicles Company
Three large men stepped out of the woods at first. They had claw marks on their faces and they had Large weapons with them. One of them was holding an axe that could easily tear off a man's head without much difficulty. The other two held large swords, and the way they glistened told Blaize they were extremely sharpThe men began to walk closer toward them, and Victoria slowly retreated to hide behind Blaize."Just three? We can take them." Julian puffed and proceeded to crack his knuckles. As he unsheathed his sword, three other large men emerged from the woods. They were dressed and armed in a similar manner as the former two.Their unexpected presence made Julian take a step back in retreat."What the hell is this? Is this like a circus night or something?" He yelled at the men who just kept approaching. "What do you want?" Victoria asked but the men did not reply to her. They just kept approaching until Blaize had to draw his weapon. "Stay back! All of you!" Blaize said to the m
