"Wow! You actually defeated my shadow dragon! Oh man, that's so amazing! Not like I haven't seen it before, though..." The man said sarcastically.He wore a different outfit than the generals. A dark gray shirt with a low-cut collar. He had on black pants and shoes. Over his shoulders, he wore a dark purple cloak with a checkered pattern on it. He had an earring with a dark purple crystal hanging from his left ear.He did not possess a mask or a hood to cover his face.The man had white hair just like the Attendants and his eyes burned with a dark purple energy.At the same time...This guy looked lot like..."Cain...? Is that you...?" I asked."Ugh, don't call me Cain, Mizik. Just call me Difar. I prefer that name, you know?""Fine...Difar..." I said confusingly."Mizik...do you know this man?" Isabella said."Yeah, he's the piece of shit that evicted me from my house. He...turned into a monster right in front of me. You never got to see his face, but...this is him. Without a doubt..
I shot straight towards Difar with my swords at the ready.As soon as I reached him, I felt my sword hit something...A huge black claymore with glowing purple runes had manifested in his hands to block the attack.I was then blown back by an immense wave of chaotic dark energy as Difar readied his sword."Do you like my sword, Mizik? I found it on Avernia. It used to be called Hope...but now I call it: EXTINCTION!!!" Difar swung Extinction down as it radiated incredible power.The Enforcers as well as myself just barely managed to move as a gigantic wave shot across the ground and obliterated several sky scrapers while creating a chasm several miles long."HOLY HELL!!!" Jallah shouted"GAHAHAHAHAHA!!! YOU FOOL! I'M A GOD!!! HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY KILL A GOD!?" Difar laughed.At the same time, Isabella had begin fighting Cassandra.Cassandra darted around Isabella faster than she could attack and magic daggers appeared all around her.They shot at Isabella in a barrage and Cassandra sw
We continued drifting for a while...I eventually passed out as Isabella worked diligently to heal me.When I woke up, I was still in terrible pain... The air here felt so dense...like I was being crushed alive by an unseen force...The entire time, Isabella held onto me tightly and never let go...Where are we...? Am I dead? I opened my mouth to speak, but as soon as I did, I didn't hear any sound.It felt incredibly hard to breathe... Like my lungs were being crushed by something other than Isabella.I looked around and saw stars in the distance.We passed a few of them and simply kept moving...Were we moving? The way things were out here...it certainly felt like we were moving...Things looked to be moving past us...But the entire time I was thinking about these things...it felt like I was ignoring something important.My mind was in an uproar at the moment. I couldn't think hardly at all. My emotions seemed to be in chaos and I could feel nothing except overwhelming fear and
Kyriel atood up after slaying the hero who had stood against her. The entire area was littered with bodies and Corrupted horrors.This world was called Daser.Lord Difar had brought Axiom, Tyras, Kyriel, and even Valthiem to conquer it.The corpse of the supposed 'strongest hero' in one of this world's countries was a mess at her feet. Kyriel had multiplied her daggers and stabbed him repeatedly. She pinned him down with her blades and stabbed him in the throat until he stopped screaming.At first...he shouted about honor and destroying the plague on their world.But the truth was that Kyriel could see his eyes constantly examining her body.Her face was hidden, but he didn't seem to care.He even commented on her physical form before the battle. Saying that he could give her 'a wonderful time'.But Kyriel's heart already belonged to someone else.As she shook the blood off of her dagger, thoughts of this man danced in her mind.Back when she'd been known as Cassandra, she had a mist
Isabella had done everything she could to heal Mizik as they drifted through that horrible place...For some reason, her powers didn't work at all out there.But they had just exited the Firmament and entered a new world.As soon as they did, she placed a barrier over her and her beloved Mizik since they were falling from orbit.She made sure to heal him as well while they were falling.The whole time, he said nothing. Isabella could tell something was wrong, though...Something not right in his head...As the two fell, they reached an extremely high speed and finally slammed into the ocean.Unlike their first entry into Ignitus, Mizik had taught Isabella how to swim. Now, she was a great swimmer and easily held an unconscious Mizik on her back as she stayed afloat.Actually...she had an idea...Isabella's barriers were very useful. Mizik had taken the liberty of combining Aegis Barrier with her own barrier magic related to The Centurion Aspect and increased their potency.Her new pow
"Guuuh...RRAAAAAGH!!! KILL THEM ALL!!! BURN IT DOWN!!!" Mizik screamed.Before Isabella could warn Derek, Mizik broke the man's arm and grabbed his dagger.Then he sliced the man's throat open and kicked him against the wall.Derek gargled loudly as blood squirted from his throat and fell to the floor.After that, Mizik turned his attention to Rastair."Ah...what...? Derek? Umm..." Rastair said.Mizik threw the dagger through the bars and hit Vann straight between the eyes.Actually, the dagger hit him so hard that it flew through his head...splattering brains and blood on the wall behind him and embedding itself completely as well.Vann collapsed on the ground and Rastair stood up quickly just as two magic chains appeared and pulled the cell bars so hard that they shattered.Mizik shot through the open cell and grabbed Rastair by the throat. He slammed her head against the wall and growled at her."Destroy...kill them all...I'll burn everything down...!" He growled."Mizik! Please ca
We ate the terrible food that the pirate cook made for us and slept afterwards. Rastair had been very insistent that we couldn't have her bed despite no one asking.Although she offered me a spot...Stupid giant woman.I refused, of course. We slept on the floor in our sleeping bag.Isabella seemed much more affectionate and cuddly than normal, too. I would have enjoyed it more, except that my new condition made it a problem. Still...I didn't mind the warmth. It was fairly cold and I didn't feel like using heat magic to keep warm.The day and night cycle seemed similar to Ignitus or Avernia, but the timespan of a year was far different.Avernia had a 327 day year.Ignitus had a 344 day year.Both worlds had about twelve months in a year with varying numbers of days Delvandal was a pile of garbage with 539 days in a year, and 18 months. This wouldn't be a problem, except that the seasons were at different times every year because of it.WHAT KIND OF IDIOT CAME UP WITH THAT!? AND THI
Several guild members were currently living at this Inn and we would be no different.The well-known and veteran members were allowed to live at the guild itself.Our ranks were a secret for now, and soon we would get some jobs.I couldn't help but feel like we were just trying to keep busy to prevent ourselves from realizing the severity of the situation.Everyone we knew and loved could very well have died back there...I heard Iris appear, but I had no way of knowing if Johann, Iris, Leiso, Carlos, Jallah, and Rune managed to escape.As far as we knew, we were the only survivors.Michael and Gavin were unfortunately devoured by Valthiem and Cassandra was destroyed when she touched Isabella.That also left Tyranus and Arvild... As well as the bastard himself.Cain Difar.Who could have known that he would show up again? He killed my father, evicted me from my home, and tried to kill my family in Lorelei!Actually...He did kill my family in Lorelei! He destroyed Avernia and Ignitus
