The Last Blood Mage Hiding The Truth
As Erik hurried through the monastery's corridors, his mind was a whirlwind of thoughts about the Drakon Bloom and its connection to Xander. He was so preoccupied with his discovery and intent on seeking Grandmaster Laylan's counsel that he nearly collided with Atheria, who was coming around a corner."Whoa, Atheria! Sorry, I didn't see you there. I was just on my way to find Laylan," Erik exclaimed, catching himself just in time.Atheria raised an eyebrow, noting the urgency in his demeanor. "What's the rush? You look like you've just seen a ghost. Or, knowing you, stumbled upon a secret chamber or something."Erik, still catching his breath, launched into the tale. "You won't believe what happened. I was in the garden, watering the plants—yes, at night, don't ask—and Xander came out, probably couldn't sleep. He saw this weird flower, a Drakon Bloom, took a bite out of it because I joked it was sweet, and then he started coughing like mad."Atheria's confusion was evident. "Drakon Bl
The Last Blood Mage King Valor, The Tyrant
In the heart of Drakonia, amidst the towering spires and imposing architecture of the royal court, the atmosphere was charged with tension and fear. At the center of this storm of unease stood King Valor, a figure of imposing stature with a muscular build that spoke of decades of warfare and conquest. His gray hair, once a symbol of wisdom and nobility, now seemed to enhance his intimidating presence, while a prominent scar across his face served as a constant reminder of his ruthlessness in battle.The courtyard of Drakonia was abuzz with activity, though not of the kind that brought joy or celebration. Instead, the people, under the watchful eyes and cruel whips of King Valor's soldiers, were engaged in a laborious task: erecting a giant golden statue of the king himself. The murmurs of discontent and exhaustion among the crowd were barely audible over the clanking of chains and the creaking of ropes as the statue was slowly pulled into place."Must we bear this humiliation?" whispe
The Last Blood Mage Immortality
Beneath the opulent tyranny of King Valor's court, hidden from the eyes of the common folk and even the most loyal of his soldiers, lay a secret that whispered of darker ambitions. Deep underground, in a workshop veiled in shadow and secrecy, the mages of Drakonia toiled away, their focus centered on a sight both magnificent and macabre—a giant corpse of a dragon, its once-majestic wings now lifeless and spread across the cold stone floor.The air was thick with the scent of magic and decay, as the mages, under the direct command of King Valor, worked feverishly to extract the latent powers within the dragon's remains. The room buzzed with arcane energy, the hum of spells and incantations merging with the low murmur of the mages' voices."Are we close?" hissed a mage, his hands glowing with a pale light as they hovered over the dragon's heart. "The king grows impatient for results."His colleague, a woman with eyes that burned with a mix of fear and determination, nodded. "Yes, the ex
The Last Blood Mage A King Defeated By His Family
Deep within the bowels of the castle, far removed from the grandeur of the throne room and the opulence of the royal chambers, lay the dark dungeons of Drakonia. Here, in a damp, shadowy cell, a woman sat in chains, her presence a stark contrast to the cruelty and corruption that permeated the rest of the kingdom. Her cell was illuminated only by the faint glow of a torch as King Valor made his way down the stone corridor, his footsteps echoing ominously."Ah, my dear sister," Valor greeted her with a sneer as he stood at the entrance of the cell, his voice dripping with mockery. "How do you find your accommodations? Not quite the luxury you're accustomed to, I imagine."The woman, though bound and weary, remained composed, her gaze steady and unwavering. "Your golden statue will not protect you, Valor. Your rule is built on fear and oppression. It will come to an end, sooner than you think."Valor laughed, the sound hollow and cruel. "You, a blood mage, think to threaten me? Even the
The Last Blood Mage Root cause of the corruption
Meanwhile, in the silence of his quarters, Xander sat bolt upright in his bed, a sheen of sweat covering his brow, his breathing heavy and erratic. The darkness of the monk's quarters seemed to press in on him, the echoes of his dream still vivid in his mind. It was then that Erik and Atheria, having noticed the light under his door, walked into the room, concern etched on their faces."Erik, Atheria," Xander gasped, trying to regain his composure. "I... I had a dream. It was so vivid, so real."Atheria moved closer, her brow furrowed in worry. "You're sweating buckets. What did you dream about?"Leaning against the doorframe, Erik added, "Yeah, mate, you look like you've just run a marathon. Must have been some dream."Xander wiped his forehead, the images from his dream still swirling in his head. "It was more like a nightmare. I saw a giant golden statue, towering over a crowd of people. There was... there was so much tension, fear. The statue was about to fall, and everyone was pa
The Last Blood Mage Erik's Future Plans
As the trio reached the outskirts of the monastery, preparing to venture towards the source of the corruption, Erik, with his usual blend of humor and practicality, suggested a recon mission."Maybe we three should scout ahead before we bring the whole monk brigade," Erik joked, casting a sideways glance at Xander and Atheria. "No offense to our robed friends, but I'm not sure they're cut out for dragon corpse duty. Plus, it's not exactly a field trip."Laylan, who had joined them to provide final instructions, nodded in agreement. "Erik has a point. It's wise to assess the situation first. And Erik, you're familiar with the forest, aren't you?"Erik shrugged, a half-smile on his face. "Familiar enough to know it's not exactly a stroll through the park even on a good day. But yeah, I know the way."Laylan's expression grew serious, his eyes reflecting the gravity of their task. "Be cautious. The corruption from the dragon's corpse may have... unintended side effects. The forest could
The Last Blood Mage Living like a dragon
Several hours had passed since their conversation about Erik joining them on their journey, the landscape gradually shifting as they approached a vast, frozen lake. The air grew colder, the chill biting through their cloaks. Erik, scanning the area with a practiced eye, suggested they make camp. "This looks like a good spot," Erik announced, gesturing towards a clearing near the frozen lake. "We should rest here for the night. The lake will provide us with fresh water, and we can use the open space to our advantage should we need to defend ourselves." Xander and Atheria nodded in agreement, dismounting their horses and beginning to set up camp. Erik, taking a few steps away from the setup, concentrated for a moment before extending his hands. With a few whispered words, a spell ignited from his fingertips, creating a campfire that crackled to life, its warmth a welcome respite from the encroaching cold. "Show-off," Xander teased, but his tone was light, appreciative of the warmth Er
The Last Blood Mage Another mythical creature
Huddled in the cave as the storm unleashed its fury outside, the trio tried to make the best of their situation, sharing stories and attempting to keep their spirits high despite the ominous atmosphere. The howling of the wind and the relentless barrage of snow against the cave entrance created a cacophony that drowned out all other sounds. It was during a brief lull in the storm's roar that Xander, his senses always on alert, tensed up, his head tilting slightly as if trying to catch a sound far off in the distance."Did you guys hear that?" he asked, his voice cutting through the relative quiet of the cave.Atheria and Erik paused, listening intently. "Hear what? Just the storm, isn't it?" Atheria replied, a hint of concern creeping into her voice."No, there was something else...a roar. Not like any animal I've heard before," Xander insisted, his eyes narrowing as he tried to peer out into the swirling snow.Erik stood up, moving closer to the cave entrance, his magical senses exte

Into The Forest
Three grueling days after their harrowing encounter with the yetis, the trio finally saw their destination looming on the horizon: the dark forest. The sight of it was enough to dampen the spirits of even the most stalwart adventurer. Towering trees, so dense and tall that they seemed to swallow the light, stood as silent sentinels guarding secrets untold. A mist clung to the forest floor, giving the entire landscape an ethereal, yet ominous, quality."Ah, the dark forest. Just the sort of place you'd expect to find in a cheerful tale of adventure and heroism," Xander quipped, his voice dripping with sarcasm as they approached. "I bet it's filled with sunshine, rainbows, and friendly woodland creatures just dying to invite us over for tea."Atheria rolled her eyes, a smirk playing on her lips. "Oh, definitely. I hear the dark, soul-sucking void at its heart is particularly inviting this time of year. We should definitely RSVP."Erik, who had been quiet, his gaze fixed on the forest's

The Journey Toward The Forest
As the trio braced themselves for the yetis' counterattack, the creatures proved their cunning once more. Rather than engaging directly in their weakened state, the yetis used the storm to their advantage, disappearing into the swirling snow to regroup and launch a more strategic assault."We can't let them regroup!" Atheria shouted, her voice barely audible over the howling wind. She continued to fire arrows into the storm, hoping to disrupt the yetis' movements.Xander, breathing heavily from the exertion and the effects of Erik's spell beginning to wane, scanned the edges of their makeshift battleground for any sign of the yetis. "These bastards are smarter than they look. We need to stick together, watch each other's backs."Erik, his energy drained, nodded in agreement, trying to muster what little magic he had left for another protective barrier. "They're using the storm as cover. We need to be ready for anything."Suddenly, from the depths of the blizzard, a large ice boulder,

The Trio vs The Yetis II
As Xander engaged the yeti in a fierce melee, his determination and vampiric strength driving him forward, the battle took a sudden turn. From the shadows of the storm, more yetis emerged, joining the fray with a coordinated assault. These new adversaries didn't engage directly in the close combat but instead launched a barrage of ice boulders and sharp icicles from a distance, adding a new layer of danger to the already chaotic battle."Damn it, there's more of them!" Xander cursed, narrowly dodging a large icicle that whistled past his ear, his focus split between the towering yeti before him and the incoming projectiles. "Erik, Atheria, we've got company!"Atheria, her eyes wide at the sight of additional yetis, quickly shifted her focus to the new threats. "Xander, keep on the big one! We'll handle the others!" She loosed arrow after arrow with precision, each one aimed at the shadows from which the ice attacks originated.Erik, recognizing the need for a defensive strategy, began

The Trio vs The Yetis I
Forced back into the merciless embrace of the storm, the trio navigated the blizzard's fury with renewed caution. The failure of Erik's plan had not dampened their spirits, but it had certainly underscored the power and cunning of their yeti adversaries. The yetis, sensing their momentary advantage, intensified their barrage, the size and frequency of the ice boulders growing as if to crush any hope the trio had of escaping unscathed."This is insane!" Xander shouted, barely dodging another massive ice boulder that crashed into the snow beside them, sending a shower of icy fragments into the air. "They're not just throwing ice anymore; they're aiming to kill!"Atheria, her eyes scanning the swirling chaos for any sign of their attackers, nodded grimly. "Yetis are known for their strength, but this...this is something else. It's like they're toying with us, testing our defenses."Erik, his energy reserves slowly recovering, added, "And they're using the storm as cover, striking from th

Cunning Yetis
As the trio prepared themselves inside the cave, the onslaught of ice balls intensified, each one larger and thrown with more force than the last. The situation quickly escalated from a mere annoyance to a dire threat. Xander, dodging another icy projectile, couldn't contain his frustration. "Bloody hell! These yetis have one hell of an arm. What's their plan, turn us into an ice sculpture exhibition?"Erik, his gaze fixed on the cave entrance, where the ice balls seemed to be targeting with alarming accuracy, had a grim realization. "They're not just attacking us. They're trying to seal us in. If they manage to block the entrance with enough ice, we'll be trapped here."Atheria, understanding the gravity of their predicament, quickly assessed their options. "We can't let that happen. We need to make a move before we're completely buried. It's clear they want us either trapped or dead."The notion of being trapped by a deliberate strategy employed by the yetis only added to Xander's g
