"But Sire, I don't believe this balancing act is necessary right now. Especially since Vancrest has all the chips in their pockets." Rancar spoke to his King."Explain." The King responded, gazing down upon the city of Pluto. Which was one of the five cities of 'Hades'"I believe we should cause a bit of trouble in Vancrest, then after said trouble is over we maintain radio silence until when Vancrest defenses are low." Rancar raised his hand in the air, "Then we strike.""What about Liric and the Sword of Dawn?""If every major combatant helps us in the war against Vancrest, I doubt there would be anything those weapons can do. Especially since we have the likes of the 'Seven deadly sins' on our side." "What kind of trouble do you want to create right now?" The king inquired."I want to send Modred the Fallen and Malachi the immortal to Vancrest, alongside some other people. Let's make Vancrest think we want to steal the Pandora's blessing. When in reality— we come for the destructio
Ysley stood frozen in shock, the seconds stretching into what felt like an eternity. He locked eyes with the monster he had brought to life and an intense soul-piercing connection formed between them."Malachi," Ysley uttered and his former lab assistant walked around him, twirling the pistol in his hand. "You know when I was in that cave. I didn't know what exactly was going on, my mind went blank and all I could think of was your death. But after I came out, I noticed a hundred years had passed. I thought my revenge would never be fulfilled." Malachi stopped. "But here you are, alive and well."Ysley found himself at a loss for words. The students were witnessing a situation that could have potentially led to his demise, something he desperately wished to avoid, especially in this place. "Malachi, I'm sorry for what I di-""Stop! Stop! Stop right there." Malachi put his palm to his face. "Don't give me that fake apology doctor. I know what I saw in your face, you knew what you did.
At first, she had spoken to him while he was far away, but she knew he had not heard her so she stopped. However, she never thought he would jump down to rescue a man he barely knew. "Are you okay?" A voice uttered and Finn sat up from the ground, around him was a dark enclosure with little to no light, reminding him of the cave he had woken up in, at the beginning of it all."What's happening?" Finn asked as he held his head, a terrible headache had passed through."I am the Pandora's blessing known as the Yin and Yang blades. I am originally the Goddess of war, 'Syth' After my death my soul and magic were put into this container to preserve my abilities for future generations."A Pandora's Blessing? You mean like Hajun?" Finn inquired and the voice agreed."The God of death, Hajun. Although I am not entirely close to him, I was informed of his passing when I was alive. So it would make sense for him to be turned into a Blessing by Pandora." The voice explained."So wait, you’re going
As Emirus walked while holding his two remaining students he received a notification from Roman, it read: "I can't get a hold of Liric, However, Ysley is in danger. He is facing an enemy from his past and due to this he will not fight back, so please. Help him."Emirus read the text in annoyance, wondering how they had known that the enemy had been fighting Ysley in the first place. He was too tired to fight again so he sent a notification to his students, wanting to promise them that if they helped they would be put at the top of the class. However, after the disaster that had just occurred, he had no intention of marching them to their deaths. However, even though he knew Liric was impulsive and indolent, he wasn't one to ignore messages that told him to help someone. In the hope that his friend would answer Emirus notified Liric of the situation and in an instant he received a message back saying: 'I'm currently pursuing a baddie from Hades, he's probably going to the Vancrest acad
For countless miles, Exodus journeyed across the desolate expanses of the outlands. His master had tasked him with a mission to seek out those yearning to shed their weaknesses, and he dedicated months to fulfilling this daunting quest. At last, he had accomplished his mission.He walked into a structure that was within the outlands, within it were hundreds of men and women who had seemed to be losing their patience."When are you going to make us demons!" One of them shouted at the top of his lungs."You've kept us here for months! What is this, some kind of scam?!"Exodus walked toward the front where Leviathan, another one of the demons had stood. "Did any more show up?" Exodus asked as he dusted his clothes."Nope," Leviathan said as he yawned. "So are actually making them demons or are we slaughtering them?""The former Leviathan. Lord Merlo wants to test if it's possible to create an evolved demon from a human." "Why, doesn't that destroy the entire purpose of our battle?" Levia
In the shadowy recesses of The Vancrest Academy, where the large dormitories stood, there existed a solemn construct known simply as the 'Skybox'. It was a place untouched by the students, a haven for the preserved remains of those who had been, until recently, alive and full of promise. It had been behind the dorms for decades and none of the students had known, that was how much nobody in the academy wanted to go there or even acknowledge its existence.On this awful day, as the sky turned darker and threatened to pour down, a deep silence fell over the crowd. A heavy sense of sadness hung in the air, almost suffocating. It was as if the rain itself understood the grief that had befallen the academy.As the rain started falling, it seemed to match the feelings of everyone there. The sky's tears mixed with the tears of the people, reminding them of the sorrow they shared. The rain washed over their heads, mingling with their own tears as they continued to weep.Among the gathered cro
Finn woke up on the shield of another adventurer, he rubbed his hand over his face and sat up, looking around at his surroundings. His memory was blurry and all he could vividly remember was being passed drinks until he passed out. "Hangoverrrr hurrtttss." He got up, stumbling until he got to a wall he could lean on."Good morning, Finn." Yelan greeted and Finn gazed at her momentarily before holding his mouth, stopping himself from puking on the ground."Hi... Yelan.""Fun night right? Martha made a decent amount as well, only the first round was free." Yelan wrote something on a piece of paper as she spoke."Is that so? I'm gonna go upstairs... the quicker I pass out... the better my well-being becomes." Finn stumbled as he walked toward Martha's bar."There are no spare rooms by the way," Yelan said as she worked. "Martha's rooms have been packed up for a while now.""Argh." Finn fell onto the floor, making inaudible noises as he did."By the way, there's a mission for you," Yelan u
Finn ran down an open path in the cave that led to where the dragon's roar had come from. He had been eager to test his abilities but as he turned a corner and saw the large beast, his previous eagerness turned into a will to run.Beneath the dragon were adventurers who fought it, and beneath the adventurers were corpses with iron plates strapped onto their chests. Finn had seen enough death in his time at the academy but it was always awful to see such a thing, despite how much he thought he had gotten used to the sight. It was just one of those things that the body would never get used to. Finn stopped in his tracks, there were a multitude of adventurers all attacking the dragon, using their spells and weapons however their attack bounced off the colossal beast like pebbles thrown at an iron wall."That's it, I'm done!" One adventurer uttered, turning back and heading toward Finn but as he made his move to retreat the dragon unleashed a fiery onslaught that burnt him down to ash in
