《Eternal Peace and chaos》 Prologue : The echoes of the past ETERNAL PEACE AND CHAOS It has been... 200 years.. This world engulfed with war.. I forgot how''s it''s started.. For more than 200 year I fight, kill, cursed and still alive, survive from this life nightmare.. form a dirty orphan to general to a queen...elder and last become a goddess... a revered being among my people... loved and feared.. For many years i view war as an ugly event yet has the most beautiful moment... Blood, Sweat and piss are mixing with piles of body try to topple each other... their eyes full of determination, hope, fear for the future.. yet the future not set... they just believe.. I am born as an half elf and half demon in the mist of war...there are 5 races whose reign in the face of the earth. there is elvhen race who reign in far north with their overwhelming power on magic and agility also their cities were protected by the deep forest Du vandhalreen, in term of raw power Dragon is the most powerful then other races. lives in southern mounts of dal guldur, while humans lives in the central Middle earth..known as the weakest from other races yet they could overcome it by their population, deceit, alliances and lies, Dwarves is known of their technology on golem and magic enchantment, you could surprise how much strength come from their little body, They dominate in the west far from surface as they loves being inside of the earth.. and last is demons the most powerful race on this world yet the most fragile as their nature to warring each other and never trusts their own race and try to eat their own flesh to shows their power... they lives in the eastern part of the earth... i forgot my parent''s face.. As a hybrid.. we lives in the pitiful state.. Hekate my name there is no meaning on it.. just simple words and easy to remember..Hybrid were looks as heresy or shit in all races, so our life fated to be hard to live with... i was 9 years old, started to live as an orphan.. Life was tough as an orphan and becomes hell when war coming... i live from scavenging warrior corpses, fallen from war... if lucky we get trinket to sell or food.. if not i eat their corpse.. well... anything is good for food in that time, better then died of hunger... i have seen some of my fellow orphan died of hunger and it was cruel... if i die i would love to be painless and fast.... From child i could sense mana around me and also sees it... i could sees different kind of mana in every being in this world. as I saw how mages controlling "outside" mana to perform their spell.. as warriors who control their "Own" mana from the inside of their body to boost their power. from my observation there are 2 types mana... "outside" of the body.. and inside of their "Own" body.. and also mana has many types of color.. white, blue, red, green and black.. as their function.. i can''t decide... Every being has same or different color of mana... i can''t decide why or how.. but as my own its unique..I could see gold mana always around me... My only friend is Dirke, a male human who left alone in the war... and soon he will become my own brother... i found him in the forests with many human corpse lying there.. he was cried as i suspect all that humans corpses were his own family... it is not rare,this event happen.. what rare is survivor.. I took him and teach him how to survive in this harsh world... he has talent using swords.. and i always good at controlling my mana.. i dont know how to spell a magic but controlling my gold mana and shape it swords or spear to kill and shield to defend.. i always like my mana they are...capable.. Together we live as mercenaries , adventurers fight and live from war to another war.. for many years we fight together and our bond becomes stronger...Countless time, I always save dirke from danger and dirke also do the same.....Then, in the mist of another war a grandmaster elder from elvhen took a liking to us... I don''t know why but he sees us with something strange glance.. his eyes are really rare in this world.. he look at us with..... kindness.. his name is Ard du Weldervarden esta Raphael He start to teach us many thing... from languages to combat strategy.. a strategy from engaging powerful enemy to legions of enemy... He teach me many magic spell.. and took a liking on my own mana shaper and soon we called my method as Knight Enchanter... resemble how i shaped my gold mana as sword and shield like a knight... he always called me a genius and talented.. as for Dirke, Raphael teach him many combat skills more or less killing technique.. He now could use many weapon and master it very fast... The old man also teach him how to use mana like a magic caster.. sometimes the old man say he is a monster... but for me he always my brother.. in blood or not.. even though he is not talking much but inside i know he always cared for me as do i... for 5 year we studied under him and now he ask us to help him on the alliance between human, elvhen and dwarf.. to bring peace and order.. Such a beautiful dream.. peace.. and order.. War after war.. alliances.. betrayal.. lies...deceit... become our everyday event.. One day we become general.. as for me.. I usually send to fight impossible mission as I am an hybrid and a lot higher up despise me...because of my achievement .. Dirke got better treatment because he is a pure.. but he always come with me and argue with the council about me.. he said " You can''t even survive one war without me as do i" one day, I was send to defend our garrison in the east from legions of demon with little bit of army.. I battle with demons in the valley of mists.. hour become days.. and months.. and a year has passed.. we were left without reinforcement and information from the alliance left there to death.. Dirke was engaging in a war in the south before i was went to this mission.. no information from him either, i hope he is well and will come here, help me with his stupid smug on his face..... many my soldier run.. just a handful still with me as they respect me and will die with me.. in the last day, I fight like no tomorrow i use all my power to annihilate them.. in the mist of war let the gold mana engulf it and down with it! Years i train my power.. My gold mana sword could cut any armor or bariers in this world... it also could suck any mana from it foes... while i could shape my mana to becomes armor within me to protect me from any harm... i summon countless of swords to devastated my foes..flying to all my foes... cut, cut and be slashed... it is impossible to be unscathed in war.. body by bodies were died blood spill like rain.. i can''t comprehend my action.. i was in trance.. i.. laughing... laughing at my foes and myself.. in the crowd of war i was dancing alone.. Thirst for more of this euphoria.. In the end no one survive except me.. pile of bodies before me.. blood like a river in the land.. In this war i found peace and chaos.. at last i discover knowledge of the true identity of my power.. chaos and Peace can''t present without each other... as for power of destruction and restoration.. my gold mana could affect with both of them. with this i could summon many materials from my gold mana.. unlimited power... i laugh and laugh like a mad woman... then i sense a large army coming from the north.. reinforcement?.... dirke and many generals come.. i walk upon them with smiling face and red blood on my body... all of me were in engulf with blood of enemy.. i could see their eyes filled with fear.. but dirke.. he just look at me with Pity and interested look.. as always.. From then on i was called Eldar of Death and Blood... or in Elvhen language Vialha Dieth Licht Dirke told me that the council are no more.. and Raphael was assassinated in the senate.. It shock me.. how.. raphael like a parent to me... a father... i cried.. cried.. i feel at loss and at fault.. i can''t help him instead i was laughing in here... Chaos again rein in the face of the earth.. with the senate and the council gone.. there are no leader hence riot, destruction comes devastated many civilized... In the east, I and dirke start to make our own teritory.. when the war in the valley of mist ended i got respected by my own foes.. demons.. I took a land there consist of demons,and hybrids.. With me as their leader.. i start govern this area.. vanquish all demon clans that defy me and give them mercy who bow before me...dirke as my second in command and also my strategist. 60 Years has passed.. from a small land we grown into an empire with harsh laws and order. Punishment must be severe.. fear is needed to bring order and order bring peace... when years passed dirke and i passed the elder realm and become gods... we are immortal being... with unlimited power.. the very same power with leaders of other races.. Stolen novel; please report. With my power and our empire became larger.. the other faction can''t ignore me no more.. they called me a demon queen the single entity who reign in the east... and so the balance power were shifted again... With the demons and hybrid united under me in the east.. empire of Reaz''krea.... Elvhen still reign in the north.. The elvhen queen Mythal as their ruler with the holy council in her back.. Human kingdoms were devastated in the middle earth and so they seek alliance in the west with the dwarves.. both of them combine their intelligence and make wonders of technology.. their alliance called The crimson moon alliance... The dragon race still immovable in the south.. reign in mountainous terrain.. Lord dragneel as their single ruler... War has come and gone.. treaty and betrayal.. even the power is shifted the condition still the same.. and so ... in the present with my alliance with the elvhen race we come into conclusion decided to make a high council to manage and unite all of races.. Peace will last and... each of the ruler will be the guardian to protect it... and ... I....wil be sacrificed.... Capital of raz''krea : Elenth''dur (1945 BC) I stare.. and wonders at my city... while reminiscing of my past.. how i end up here.. i chuckle.. satisfaction smile on my face.. at last a bit more and peace will come eternal peace!!!

The Divine Summit will be held in the middle earth at the Ba''li lake" With joy I reply "That place is devoid of mana and has natural protection from any incoming magic from the outside.. a perfect place for this occasion" I look at dirke.. and i see some uncomfortable looks on him.. "what''s the matter ?" "is it true.. you will relinquish your title and sacrifice yourself to eternal sleep...if this summit..." "..... It is time dirke.. you are my only dearest existence for me.. I trust you with my life... that is why you must lead our empire to millennia peace.. if is my existence could ensure the peace future for hundreds of year.. i would be glad " " what of me!!! u leave me.. do you not pitied me.. left alone in this damn world for eternity!!!"

"Thanks ryu''uk...i will repay you guys some day...." "don''t mention it hahahahha" "well then let''s go back!! i want sleep in the proper bed at the inn and warm places!!!" After the charges pack things up.. they all heading to south... using same trail as before it''s foolish so they circle around a bit.... they meet some monster here and there but nothing much... until... they let one ice troll escape.... "ohh shit one troll escaped.. he will be tell their tribe about our location... Hurry fast run2!"(ryu''uk) But before long I could hear a lot of the troll horde footsteps.. and 1 of them has really heavy step..this is not good.... "they are coming..."(Hekate) "what?" (Sera) "GRUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH..." "Shit!!! Gajeel defense the right flank ill take the left!!! we will circle around Cyril!! cyrill prepare some support magic more on disable enemy!! and Sera hide yourself and find yourself a tall spot to cover us!!! "Rogerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! Gruaaahh COmeee Troll feel my Axe!!!!!" "unmovable, chained, froze in time .. Izlandia give me your blessing... freeze my enemy before you... Ice vortex" "Okaayy.. eat that!! and this.. Oh yeah an arrow in your head feels so good right!!!!" "hek please stay behind me i will cover you!!" ....Their teamwork is not bad...they have the necessary bond that help them to work together... Ryu''uk as vanguard has a wide vision understanding on field, he always defense and counter perfectly while switching place with Gajeel by circling cyril.. Gajeel could take 2 trolls on every slash of his bloody axe.... his axe originally has black color but know full red from the blood of its foes, while cyril that protected by those two casting ice and nature area type magic to disrupt trolls advance and giving time to two defenders... and sera has found a good spot start to cover them with her arrow and look out the area... i could see they trust eachother as one.. but.. i sense one different than others approaching... "Fuuccckkk!!! Ryu''uk!!! watch out!!! Their chieftain on your right!!!(sera) The trolls chieftain.... clearly has much bigger body.. 400 meters tall, has dark blue color skin... His armor are full of skulls of his victim and pelt of wolves and bears...he wield dual big axe with a lot of weird marking on it.. his 2 lower canines were much bigger than normal.. if i could say like an elephant... his eyes are full of anger and carnage.. he swing both his axes to the small dwarf.. Ryu''uk don''t have time to counter nor stand his ground so he just cover his body with his large shield and got thrown out by just the sheer force of its strength... "RYUUUUUKKKK!! GAHHHH.." After he toss ryu''uk away The Chieftain change its target and approaching Cyril... Oh well...like old times... it is really nostalgic... an enemy before me with much bigger size body and me with just 2 small dagger at my hand.... I start to run charge at him.. i need to be closer.. The chieftain were surprise by my sudden move and how fast i am... He start swinging his axe to cut my body.. but oh my... so slow..... i dodge it by crouch down really low while keep maintaining my speed.... The bigger its body its mean an easy target when i really close to him... he can''t attack me when i in this close range... in a blink of eye i already beneath him.. i surround my weapon with little bit of my aura and throw one my dagger to his left eyes... "GRUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHRRRGGGGGG!!!!" ....Oh bulls eye!! He start howling and throwing a lot of slash around tried to hit me but i keep myself beneath him.. all his slash were miss its target some even hit its own leg..then he use all its might to swing a big arc to the ground where i was standing but as usual it landed in empty space and hit the ground.. it''s axe were stuck a bit and i use that momentum jump to its hand and run through his arm then charge to its head.. i slash his only eye left then kick it''s head to use it as momentum to jump away from it... and Ryu''uk shouting .. "NOWWW!!! SERAAAA CYRILLLL!!!!" Sera shoot his double arrow to the chieftain neck while Cyril imbued sera''s arrow with fire spell.. when it pierce its neck the arrow explode destroying its upper body and blood spread out like a blood fountain... after their leader dead all the trolls are fleeing like fly and their terrified expression were written on their face... but something is wrong... i could sense a familiar large amount of mana in the sky.... Its...watching me..... Cyril Pov What the hell .... That girl far away from a fragile beautiful porcelain... she is a little monster.... it was happened in a moment... after i saw ryu''uk were thrown i prepare myself for a close combat.. but then she start running off herself.. so fast.... with just a breath away she closed her distance to the trolls chieftain.. she easily dodge it''s slash and launch her dagger to one of its eye... The chieftain clearly hurt so much pain.. he start to slashing blindly tried to hit her but no avail.. Ryu''uk were damaged a little from the clash and immediately stand up, approaching hekmatyar to cover her but trolls blocked the path while Gajeel desperately tried to help however, he was swarmed by many trolls.. Sera busy by covering me from the distance and i can''t do any damage spell to it cause the little elf keep really close to the troll leader... but then... The little elf were climbing it''s arm very fast and slashing the other eye while jumping out to the distance... The opening were created and with ryu''uk order i combine one of my highest damage spell with sera''s arrow... and destroying the troll''s leader... after the crowd of trolls were run away... things calm down.. i stare at her whose gazing at the sky... she clearly not a helpless little girl and from how she combating that monster... she has skills and a lot experience... i am really wondering who she is... for a little girl could easily combat a rank S monster calmly..... is it normal for an elvhen little girl has this much power..... "... i don''t know you are this powerful hekmatyar" (Cyril) "Uhuh.... no in term of strength i has the same as any ordinary child... i just a bit faster than any normal girl..." "Hahahhaha you are sooooooooo fassstttttt.. like my arrow.. going there and there and swoosh!! bye2 eyes! ahahahha!" (sera) "nevertheless... i grateful for your assistance... is it normal for elvhen children this powerful?" (ryu''uk) "hmm.. no... my life just different... every day is fighting for survive....." "i... understand we will not asking further..." (Cyril) "thanks.....umm i need to have alone time for a moment.." Hekmatyar start to walk away to the trees.. Gajeel following in some distance.... Umm... Gajeel? could you.. I ..will protect you.. monster may still lurking somewhere....(gajeel) "No please... I..I.... You know....Ummm...after eat..... and all i need... to...privy...." ".........................................................." "pfffffffffftttttt hahahahahahahhahahahahahha sorry gajeel it is so funny hahahahaha" (sera) "I I am sorry....I I..." (gajeel) red color are covered on his face then start dogeza to hekmatyar.. "Gajeel... oh my fufufuufu" (cyril) "no its fine gajeel i will just go around there... you don''t need to do that... i..will back and thanks for worrying" "Poor gajeel... hey i will teach you how to treat girl nicely!!" (Ryu''uk) "Ryu''uk don''t make our dear berserker to be pedophilia!"

It can¡¯t be.... Their race was purged by ¡°him¡±... no her eyes... her hair... it can not be.... This is not an illusion nor my usual imaginary delusion... it is her!!! My Eternal Beautiful Queen!! She..she is alive!! How.. Why her highness with them... and that appearance.... in this fucking terrain... Ohhhhh such a blessing.. to see her again.. Gaze on her highness again.. What a blessing... eventhough.. She is in a child''s appearance i could sense her divine radiant figure and her eyes still the same crystal gold that could pierce any heart of man.... I still remembered eons ago when i first met her... I was born in hybrid village... I am a hybrid of elf and human.. Even though life was hard and we live Nomaden, avoiding the war and other pure races, we all live in peace... but that changed when we were spotted by human kingdom.. My village was purged.. Attacked.. The humans kill us mercilessly, like killing rats corrupting their field... i tried to defend my village but failed and struck by a human¡¯s spear... who am i in this merciless world.. Is this going to be the end for me... then when I lost hope.. and in despair... Her highness come with her army... her radiant gold aura.. Were so bright and warm... The humans were scared and fear were written on all their face¡­ that beautiful entity glow brightly in gold, charged in the front so fast like a comet and destroyed any being that hinder on her path¡­ her gold sword were so many and floating in her back like a majestic gold wing¡­. She easily cut human flesh and armor like cutting paper¡­ her combat, so beautiful like dancing in the rain of her foe¡¯s blood while her gold sword striking, slashing and destroyed her enemy that dare stepping near her¡­.Not long, she kills and beheaded all human armies... then¡­.She walked towards me and look at me... Ahhhhh such a blessing before i die i could gaze on her.... Then she talks to me... ¡°Weakling....¡± I was shocked... with her alluring and beautiful sound..she called me weak..why......I know deep in my heart, I despise myself for my powerlessness..but in the end I fight for my village¡­. As I tried to find a reason.. She gives me one¡­ ¡°If you have a courage to defend your love one then.. Wake up... Stay with me... Serve me¡­. Fight with me¡­.. To clench your own happiness¡­. Don¡¯t give up and defeated by your own powerlessness...¡± I am shivering from my distant past memory¡­. Such a day that changes me¡­ When i was busy gazing at her beautiful figure... i could sense horde of trolls were charging at them... The adventurers could defend their own... my queen just stares there and observe how the adventurers fighting against the troll horde... although they were pushed by the amount of trolls, they could handle it with their teamwork.. But that didn¡¯t stay long after the troll¡¯s Warchief join the fray.. The dwarf was caught off guard by the Warchief and thrown out... when that creature starts to approaching their mage... my queen move... She was so fast..so ferocious..so mighty..so divine..... She ends that pitiful creature beautifully... ohhhh.. How her combat still beautiful as ever... why she is not use her swords magic to end all the horde faster?... oh, maybe she doesn¡¯t want to show her power to them.... Then¡­ she look at me¡­ with the same eyes¡­ full of fire and life¡­ she found me again!!!! Ohhhhhhh¡­.. I am melted before her eyes¡­. I stopped at observing her and flying down near her¡­. Hekate Pov That entity flew down around here...... This mana...... it is him..... "I know your there Loch''kyirm!!! Show yourself!!!" Suddenly Loki appears and kneel down. With disbelief and happy looks written on his face ¡­. "I am here my queen... I apologize to not recognize you. I can''t believe you were alive...Please punish me for my negligence" "Enough........I need to know!! What happen to my dear brother!! And this world... is change!! i just awake from my slumber and what year it is?? Also, where is our empire!!" "Asleep?? So that''s what happen...

Neither all the kingdoms and empire of our past still stood" ".............Catastrophe... please give me your wisdom what happen from when i was gone..." "... very well my queen.... That day, When you were gone.... The high commander proclaims that you has resigned as a queen and come to eternal sleep and with the Acanceau crown in his hand as proof... from then on.. The divine summit was held, however, before that happens... His worshiped trust me with an artifact and warn me to not come in the divine summit¡­.Furthermore instruct me to the royal safe place... In that time I was confused, but I am still faithfully obey... Then from the divine summit direction a bright green light bursting in the sky.... And a great earthquake following after that, the sky was split open like fall apart, creating rift... the wrath of sea summoning many tsunamis swallowing the land..." "Soon... countless life were perished... the great continent, we used to know split into 5 continents... as our mother earth face change... the sight of it is the most frightening yet the most magnificence sight...the real raw power of nature... Unstoppable... "The royal safe place were imbued by the high commander power and yours, my queen... it protects me from any harm....I am very grateful also in the same time sad for my brethren... the catastrophehappensto 1 year but..Extinguish a great amount of lives a far cry from any war casualties, races and clans that have once flourished were extinct after that i try to help anyone in need, despite their races.... From the rift that was created from that light summon ferocious entity soon we called monsters... then One being that Has the same power as yours, my worshipped, Appear... with a silver aura around him... he lead all races. Humans, raksashas, dwarfs and beastkin ... with The 9 gods helped him that including me... we build kingdoms and empires once more and as the monster for our common enemy..We united and drove them to the south.....

"..........................................................." ¡°Very well.....i believe you..........Now Tell me... who is the Supreme Being and other gods¡­. Beside you...¡± "The supreme being is... half elf and humans... first time i met him when fighting some monster while protecting the refuges... his power remind me of you my liege.... his personality isn''t bad either aside the hatred for elvhen race and he purge all of them.... he refuse to discard any races beside elvhen and unite all... The other god soon born from the refuges... they are how we called in the past "lesser god"... An entity that thrives their power and step in god''s realm.... well for their power are not bad but it is still pathetic comparing the warring state period when you my queen waging The great war with other powerful entity of every race....." "Hekmatyaaaar are you okay in theeree???" (Sera) "AAaah..yeeess i am coming now....." "Loch''kyirm..i ask your cooperation... cover my entity, from any other gods, especially from the supreme being....also give me the artifact that entrusted by my brother to me..."

Always¡­. ¡°It¡¯s all started when the Alliance instructed me to explore an ancient tomb near the dragonic territory¡­. What I found were many undead and ancient writing about an entity called hero¡­. The ancient writing said about a group of hero summoned from another dimension to subjugated an immortal monster, that have eaten many suns and planets¡­. The heroes succeeded, but with a horrible cost¡­. This tomb I suspect is the tomb of them¡­ ¡°In the end of the tomb I met with an ancient skull dragon who protected their inner sanctum¡­. I fight him days and nights¡­ almost all my troops were killed by the dragon¡­ but in the end I could finish him and put a rest on its curse¡­ but before the dragon perished¡­ he talk to me¡­ give me a divine artifact ¡°pandora¡¯s box¡±..

I lazily walk to the bathroom¡­. I take out my dirty clothes from my body, and realize that¡­. For more than 900 years¡­ these clothes have a good durability¡­.. Before I enter the bathroom.. I saw my whole body in the mirror¡­. I was stunned¡­. My body¡­ it is¡­ clean¡­. No marks¡­ no scar¡­.. It can¡¯t be¡­ I had countless scars on my body¡­ now... like a born baby..

They are warming the water here using magic? .... For more than 15 minutes, I am enjoying the bath for the first time in 900 years. I am out from the bath and wear the same dress¡­. The color used to be white, but now become a ragged dress state¡­ Afterwards I meet up with Sera and Cyril.. Okay, first you really need a new dress!!! (Sera) A lot of it..... (Cyril) They are wearing different clothes... Cyril looks so stunning, beside her beautiful lady like feature, she wears a green long dress with gold pattern on their edges and a white long sleeve jacket... While, Sera looks as pretty as usual.. With tomboyish looks she wears short blue pants revealing her beautiful leg and blue shirt and usual leather hunting shoes... You all so beautiful... Aww.... And you little elf is so cute!! Here wear this bracelet.. It''s imbued with illusion magic, so your ear will be the same as human... (Cyril) The last thing we want is unnecessary attraction..(Sera) Thank you.... What are we waiting for lets go!!! (Sera) Asthor city, Guild hall Ryu''uk Pov Hmm as usual the guild full packed of many adventures... The Building itself has 3 stores, at ground floor is information store also a bar. On the left wing before the staircase there is a room located in couple''s receptionists managing adventurers quest and in front of them many adventurers lining up, while the bar located opposite direction mostly managing drinks... Gajeeel: Arghhhh... This is going to be long!!! Dips on the bar! Ryu''uk : Di di... Shit! Every time!! Waiting on the line! Gajeeel : Hahahha bye... I am going to hit the bar just shout if you done ! Ryu''uk : Guuhhhhh.. This is going to take a while... usually the guild hall would be packed by men... however today some female adventurers coming and going. Well, most of them are a far cry from Cyril, sera ha and also Hekmatyar ha-ha I am really lucky... Hekmatyar such a weird name... she also has a beautiful face however.. Unique and ancient.. Nothing less from mythical race. At first i have my doubt about her... She pretend doesn''t know about her past and when i saw her in combat... Fast and deadly. She strikes at the weakest spot, her move so simple and no pointless movement while dodging any attack gracefully. She is strong and could survive from the trolls alone.. Then how she got in there in the first place and in an unconscious state... Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. However, When we arrive at the city.. i saw such a peaceful city and so lively then ... i saw a really sad smile on Hekmatyar''s face... tears flowing down from her eyes to her reddish cheek, but her lips keep tight, tried to stop her crying... I realize that she was alone... none her race even her family alive in this world and it''s not that she hides her identity... she just doesn''t want to remember nor tell her past... She must through a lot of pain and suffering... This peaceful sight might recall her village or her family... I look at others... they have the same thought and we surround her... Cyril especially, she starts to run and hug Hekmatyar.. .. She becomes really fond of her. Cyril is an orphan.. She lives with her only family, her grandfather, whose rarely at home... she knew how it feels to be alone... Last night we were in the inn''s bar discussing about Hekmatyar.. Hekmatyar herself asleep upstairs in her room we rent... Cyril has a crazy idea.. Well her idea was not bad, but all is up to Hekmatyar... I hope she accepts it..... 4hours later, Asthor city square The city square is fully packed with people.. a lot of merchants are opening rent around. From exotic food restaurant to beautiful dresses store. However, most of them sell potions, armors, weapons and necessity items for adventuring... Almost all kinds of people in there. For old people looking into what might interest them, young couples enjoying their dates and in the cozy restaurants. Adventurers preparing their quest by buying items they might need. However, in the crowded street many people, especially men gazing at certain group. Groups of three Beautiful figures, two adult lady and one young girl walking in the middle of a crowded street. Every man or woman would glance over them again and again.. Such a rare sight to see three heavenly beautiful figures... One of them has such voluptuous body, that could make any men drool over it. However, her face has such beauty, kindness and authority makes men reticent to go near her. While looking at some robes in mysticks store, she talks to her friend, seriously. While, her friend, a young lady with tomboyish looks that could Make people feel refreshed after seeing her, listened to her friend''s explanation. And a young, beautiful child with peculiar looks. She is really dazzling and her eyes shine brightly even in a broad daylight. She gazes around the square.People occasionally looking at her however they couldn''t look straight into her eyes. They feel somewhat not their place to look at her eye to eye.... So this garment has a good quality however.. (cyril) Yeah, yeah hey ice cream!!! Hekma want to have some??? (Sera) Ice cream ??? Sera just rush off to buy ice cream and not to care explaining what ice cream is... Arghhhh.. this is pointless... Hekma what do you want for your new clothes? (cyril) Umm, you already bought me 4 pair so I think this is enough.. This is absolutely not enough!! u need clothes for going to a party or a ball and adventuring clothes and pajamas and cat costume would be great arghhhhh so cute !!! (cyril) Ok, now she goes to her own world..... Cyrilll heiii.... (hekmatyar) Let her hekma hehehehe.. here the most delicious food!! Ice cream!!

Ahhh.. sluuurp...maaaahhh..... While Hekmatyar and Sera licking their own ice cream people around her were stopped from their activity and ogling at two beautiful lady licking ice cream erotically..

(cyril) Bu but... ughh okaay.... Dips on your ice cream hahahahaha (sera) The sun already set and they just finish their shopping...

Chapter 5 a New Beginning and ziraeen family Enjoy! Chapter 5 a New Beginning and zira''een family "Huh???" "..................." ".........................." "So... how about it?" They are still looking at each other for 2 seconds, Hekmatyar clearly shocked about out of no where question... she still thinking that she was getting deaf for all the sleep... "Umm... sorry..let me rephrase it again.. You want to adopt me into you''re noble family?" "Yes!! so?" "Aaa.... .......why?" Cyril warmly smiling at hekma..... "To tell you the truth i was an orphan too... i watched my parents die at the hand of politics and greed... i know the feeling to left alone in darkness.... luckily, my grandpa still alive and save me from the darkness... he told me no one even god himself could be happy when they are lonely and without a purpose.... he take care of me, give me a purpose and friends.... and now i saw my past in you... a lonely girl grieving with sadness, without purpose.... that is why... i want to help you...." "ah...." hekma still cant bring herself to believe such a young age compare to her who lives millenia years has a great wisdom and compassion.... "and...?" "...... you are really kind..............................sister...." "Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..!! One more time please, say big sister!!!" "Yes big sister....." "Ufufufuufufufu yesss!!! Now.....FOR THOSE WHO EAVESDROPPING IN THE DOOR.. YOU GUYS CAN GO IN!!!" Gajeel, Sera and Ryu''uk Barge in...

"Hahahaha we just pass by u know cyril hahaha.... anyway congrats Hekma.." "Kyaaaa why so dramatic its make me cried wuaaaaaaaaaa!" "Clam down sera.... cyril hekma.. Congratulation.." "ah....Thank you everyone....." __________________________________________________________________________________ Hekate Pov ah.. i feel so relief.. it''s been so long i has a good friends... now, after i accept cyril''s propose to become her family... i feel content... now we move downstairs at the bar.. laughing about how Ryu''uk was standing in line for so long until he realise he was at the wrong counter and he got sexual harrassment from another female adventurers... apparently she is a macho woman.. " seriously guys!!!! You can not believe how her muscle so much supplex even gajeel would looks like a woman compare to her!!!!" "ya... WHAT!!! NOOO !!!! GUUUH " " Hahahahhahahahah gajeel please dont be mad... even u become much like a woman when u sitting next to that macho woman... i still choose you hahahaha" "hmmmm... hekma so... what did you mean about "choosing gajeeel" ehe...?" "Oh my...... Gajeel you do has charm if you more woman like hahahahhaa" Gajeel face becomes red he tried to counter the argument but losing his words.... after that we just talk about how we went to shoping and ice cream... apparently, when i show how i lick ice cream they were laughing and gajeel somewhat become red again... and cyril angry at sera.... and i dont know why... then Ryu''uk ask a serious question to cyril... "hmm Now what will be doing next cyril?'' "of course give my adorable little sister a new name and purpose!" "a... new name?" "yep lil elf! when you adopted you must change your name... just think like a rebirth.. a new life!" aah... i see... a new begining... a new adventure...a new name...but the past still a part of i am if can... "if can.. can my name is hekate... so hekate zira''een..? "Sure! but still need a middle name.. we nobles tend to has much more then 2 words on our name..." "Icecream!! how about that!!!" "hahaha i think a food name as middle name is not a good suggestion hahaha" "Mahalaksmi...." "Hmm gajeel thats sound beautiful and strong, what its mean?" "it is our goddess name... Goddess of kindness and prosperity..." "is it okay to use your race''s goddess name?" "it is fine...hekma" "then its setelled! Your name from now on hekate mahalaksmi Zira''een!!" "cheeeeeerrss!!!" "cheeeersss!!!" "thank you big sis... everyone.... thank you....." "now what do you really Reeeeeeeeaaaaalllyyy want hekate!!!!!" for a while i was silence........I think...about my brother''s last word ...eternal peace....my dream..... i would enjoy this eternal peace you sacrificed to make.. and protect it..... ".......enjoy......adventure....to know a lot about this new world... traveling to another land...enjoying the new scenery....and protect it" "Ufufufufufu u sure? become like us? it is hard you know.. but first you need to learn about this world first... and that is why you need to go to school!... i knew the best academy for you!!!" "but cyril i think you forgot about the most important think..?" "ahhh yes... you need to meet with my grandpa! be at ease he is kind just dont be a bad kid! fufufu" but when she said that i could saw a glimpse of fear with ryu''uk and gajeel... thats strange... "umm cyril could we just live at tavern when we go to your grandpa place? "ughh ya i come with Ryu''uk" "what??? No way we are family dont be shy.. i bet he misses you guys too!!" "pffftttt.. ehheheehe" "umm sera why they so scared and what so funny about it...?" "you will see tomorrow hehehhe... cant wait tomorrow!!!" "so grandpa house is near?" "no lil sis.... we will use teleport stone to the capital city of Eiditch kingdom, Ethernia!!" "so we need to sleep now.. it is already late and i already got permission from the guild, to use teleport stone..." and thus, we go to our room and rest from this happy night and tomorrow..a new beginning.. _________________________________________________________________________________ Next day, in front of teleport stone of Asthor city Before we arrived, we has problem about gajeel can not wake up.. he was still sleeping eventhough we already late for our party to go to teleport stone... apparently, gajeel sneakly came back to the bar and drink more beer last night. Cyril go to gajeel room, ask us to leave it to her and command us to go waiting downstairs.. however, before we walk down from the stairs i could heard gajeel scream so.. how i put delicately..womanly... and there are trace some mana inside gajeel room... Now we walking in line waiting for our turn to cross the teleport stone. Gajeel has burn mark around his face and he seems can''t even walk straight, i see a slight burn mark around his crotch.....i bet cyril''s spell dont just aim on his head.... ughh.. my new sister kinda sadist... Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. "haaaah if we just arrived in time we would not need to que so long!!!" Sera furiously can''t stand to stay and fidgeting her hands.... "Oh well... at least gajeel pay for his mistakes...." Ryu''uk glance gajeel with a pity look on his face.... "Ughh hrmmm.... arghhh..." everytime gajeel move he would wail in despair a little "are you okay gajeel do u need help?" "Hek... let him be, he deserves it... oh its our turn" Then we are called... I see five big gates consist of 3 big stones and every gates circling around 1 blue crystal that flowing with alot of mana.... that crystal.... In my time we used that crystal privately to teleport us to one designed place we called teletu... every teletu has 1 designed place to teleport to.... and we needed a small chunk of it.. but now that blue crystal is big and the mana from it connect it to every big gates.... "cyril is it all five gates designed to one place?" "ah... no lil sis.. every gate were going to their own designed place.. so eiditch kingdom has five major city.. and each major city has teleport stone..." oh.. so now they has a new method to change the course of teleport.... thats interesting.... Thus we are in front of one of the gate.... "Hek... dont be suprissed when you feel a bit neusea after u cross the gate..okay?" "Yes thank you for the heads up ryu''uk" "let me first" Cyril go to cross the gate then Sera "Lallala come in" "It is your turn hek... " "Ok ryu''uk" Then i walk cross the gate... i felt nostalgia feeling... has been so long since the last time i teleport.... Then a grand view comes after i teleport.... the city is so big much much bigger then asthor... the road is paved and there are a lot of small statues in every side and intersection of the road... Many people come and go doing their own bussiness... There are various races.However, human race much more dominated the population... such a busy city... Many houses around but i could see much bigger house in the far north from here,surrounding two grand big castle.. then i look to the east there is a big house with many coloured glasses as its wall surrounded by many big statues... and in the west i could see a lot of big houses circling around... "GROOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH........" i jump a little, suprissed by the loud noises in the sky, i look up and there are two no... four big siluettes... each of it looks like a castle but on the end of it there are many big tubes... they are flying across the city.... "a flying castle?" "no you silly.. that is an air ship.... it is an air transportation for noble and royal family... its soo fancy eh?" while sera explaining it to me... Ryu''uk shouting at us.. " Guyssssss!!!! lets get going don''t just stare there,like a statue come!! you will disturb others to use teleport stone!!!!!" Now we steps down from the teleport stone and argue a bit with the people who works there because we make a jam in the que...ooops.... after that all, we go to the north.... "so.. cyril... where is grandpa house?" "......................" "............" "umm "big sis" where is our grandpa house?" "YESSS?? oh there in the north from here... near royal palace.. you will love the place.. grandpa couldn''t wait to see you!" For a while we walk through sea of people... i could sees the changes scenery... the farther we move to the north the more beautiful houses and garden....the paved road changes too... from simple white paved road to beautiful carved road... and soon we face a small but beautifully carved wall with many guards.... "Hold! this is a noble area please state your purpose.." " Hai sir Dan! how are you!" Cyril start to walk leisurely to the guards... it seems they know each other... "aaah LADY Zira''een!!! how are you! Its been so long... and i presume the gentlemans and the ladies are the famed Charges?" "fufufufu.. yes we are... please could you open the gate its been a while i am coming home..." "certaintly!... YOU LOT OPEN THE GATE NOW!!!!!! DONT JUST STARE THERE!!!! after dan said the charges many guards were coming out from their post and stare at us... "hmph! see hek we are awesomely famous!!! hehehehehe" "Just don''t show a lot of your pitiful smug sera! it makes your "refreshing pretty girl" persona into a cocky donkey" " HEIIIIIIIIiiiii! Ryu''uk!!!!!" We walk a little then we arrived at a big white house with big garden at front.... there are gate which guarded by 1 guard... "Ken!! how do you do!!!!" "ah sir ryu''uk?... and Lady cyril!!! we have been expecting you... old master has been waiting since you send notice yesterday..." " I see.. then we will meet him! cyaa ken" now we cross the garden... many big trees surrounding the small road into the house... the trees protect us from any sun light so it feels so cool and relaxing.... suddenly, we welcomed by a loud sound opening door... a big muscular guy almost like gajeel running at us... he has a short gray hair with long beard surrounding his mouth until his upper body... the most weird is, he has a long white eye brow hair. however he has a piercing green eyes same as cyril and also a bunny ear... kinda weird to see muscular strong looking grandpa with a bunny ear... "My lovely cyrillaa!! Oh myy... please hug your grandpa..!!!" "grandpa!! " They were hugging for a while and.. "its been a while sir regulus" both ryu''uk and gajeel salute with respect and... a little fear?" "Hmph.... you looks more stronger now eh... after this we could spar a bit !" "auuuuu...ye yes sir!" "uncle regulus how are yaaaa!!!!!" "oh my miss sera you more pretty as ever... hahahaha oh... so this is my new lovely grand daughter of mine!!!"

"SO.... how do you like your new home Little swallow.." "swallow??" "Our family name Zira''een means swallow lil sis and... grandpa! she haven''t come inside the mansion yet!" "oh where my manner.... i am just too excited!" "Master can''t even sleep yesterday because the excitement lady cyrilla" an old lady... coming after lord Regulus, she is wearing a maid dress with black and white color.. her hair is grey with 2 cat ear and even though she looks old, her eyes has a different aura... fierce and wise. "Figures... anyway long time no see myrilla!" "long time no see lady cyrilla... but please come inside the mansion. I have prepared everything for your guests and also our new young mistress" "ahhh.. thank you, lady myrilla you are so nice..." "oh my... please call me myrilla, i am just simple commoner don''t deserve a "lady" name..." ¡°Then.... thank you myrilla...¡± After all the pleasantries, we are come into the mansion... there are a lot of space inside the mansion.. it is more like fortress then a mansion of noble family. In the lobby there are many weapons wall accessory.. some sofa facing the windows and fire place... on the second floor has many rooms that make me wonder for whom. All I could see, there are just 4 people who lives in this mansion... at the backyard there are small combat fields with armory in the corner... ¡°say, what or who is grandpa big sis?'' ¡°well, our family mainly involves in the military... our grand father used to be one of three supreme commander of Eiditch kingdom... but now, he just manage oure territory. In spite of that, he still retain some power in the kingdom¡± ¡°ah... no wonder...¡± ¡°fufufufu father doesn''t like to lives like nobles... he is a military man after all¡± ¡°Lady Hekate please follow me to your room...¡± ¡°Cyaa hek, I recommend to try the bath room... even though, your new grandpa doesn''t like nobles on contrary his mansion has a superb bathroom!¡± ¡°as Sera said please relax take a bath after that we will have a delicious dinner...¡± ¡°okay then cya everyone...¡± Ahhh such a large room.... comfy bed... and nice view of the city... I walk slowly and enjoy the view of the city from the window.. I feel a bit of nostalgia... I miss my own city Elent''dhur... the view when the sun down much more glittering.. the streets full of gold statues combine with the red sun is breathtaking... I always cherish those memories.... ¡°such a large city... and yet compare it with my city was...... less extravagance.¡± oh in contrary, they have flying palace in the sky... _____________________________________________________________________________________ Lord Regulus Magna Ziira''eel Pov When I received the magic letter from my dear granddaughter.. I was really happy but also at the same time surprised... she decided to adopt a girl to our household and more importantly she is the last descendant of elves kind.... She said that, they found her in the ruins around the unexplored area... alone inside the horde of ice trolls turf. That''s piqued my interest.. at first I was suspicious about her story. However, when I met her I could see the darkness and sadness inside her eyes the same with cyrillia used to be.... Now, I know the reason why cyrillia adopt her... but something peculiar about her...beside her uniquely beautiful figure with white ash hair and those enchanted golden eyes, her demeanor is so proud and full of dignity like those high king or queen... now i am having the talk with cyrillia... "so grandpa, how''s your impression of lil sis?" "hohoho so fascinating.... she really has hard impression on me... her looks and aura both so dignifies and beautiful at the same time.... are all elves like her?" "i am not sure... i never saw an elves besides her...." "so what are your plans for her?" "she said that, she wants to explore this world learns a lot of things... so i want her to go to school first learn about the world currently is.....and friendship..." "So Combat and Mana Academy?" "Yes that is why i am coming back for your help grandpa please...." This child... if she doesn''t need my help... she will never come back.... hmmm..... "It is already time for dinner... after that we discuss this matter with her... cyrilla..." "Please grandpa... i need your favor!" "......Sigh.... Cyrilla now you have come back... and you need my favor... i will help you..however.. i am getting old. Our household and our territory need to be managed... you can''t run around in the wilds anymore... your responsibility as ziira''eel family needs you..." ".........................." "I know... this responsibility will always haunt me.............then I am in your care grandpa..." it seems the wilderness and life as adventurer make her matured... she has her father gaze now... "of course my dear with pleasure" _____________________________________________________________________________________ Hekate Pov Haaaaah I am full... The foods certainly much better then in my era... And many unique food like chocolate, coffee, candies, cakes and ice creams are invented... After many years of peace the take a lot of research on things like food then military.... interesting.... Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. Now we are having dinner... gajeel as always has many plates on him and still continue on eating despite the look of the maid looking at him... i bet she is worried all the food supply will eaten by that black hole stomach.... After all done... Cyril ask me to come with her to the library with grandpa.... "I presume big sis and grandpa want to talk about the school thing?" "hohoho... come here little swallow...." i walk slowly to grandpa... he looks more serious than last time, his demeanor now has more pressure.. his blue eyes were looking for me passionately... "little swallow... do you know about the world currently is?" "Not much... i know there are still a lot of monsters mysteriously spawn all over the world, about adventurer guild, and all the nation agree to cooperate protecting each other from the monsters...." "then.. there is some basic information you need... first of all this world separated by 5 continents, We are currently in east continent which governed solely by Eidith kingdom. In the far west continent, there are many kingdoms however, they all in one alliance called Eteria United Federation or EU. While the north consist many small kingdoms and still in warring state .However, currently one of the kingdom gained momentum and emerge victorious over many wars... At the center, we called middle earth continent, reigned by Holy Empire Centro and also the place of The Nine Holy Light church. And the last the unexplored continent. Which has many dangerous beasts and monsters... The rumor said that the continent were controlled by 4 ancient beast that lives in the age of gods.¡± ¡°The age of Gods? What is that?¡± ¡°In the Bible of Ancient from The Nine Holy Light church said, before all of this. In the past, when there is only one continent... There are many gods living, reign over many kind of races... They battling each other days and nights for the supremacy. The age of chaos happen in many... many years. Then in one fateful day, four supreme being, four most powerful gods among the gods meet. The purpose of this meeting to end this chaos and war, But one of them turn to greed, he betrayed other supreme being and unleash a world end spell that trigger the start of The world catastrophe. The world were split into five, The sky bleed, Monsters rampaging in all over the world, killing and feasting over many bodies.. But then the nine gods come.. they protected us and lead us. They teach us until we could stand by ourselves and survive in that merciful era.¡± ¡°Ah.... so after the catastrophe only 9 gods exist?¡± ¡°yes lil sis that is only records we have known¡± ¡°who are the nine gods ?¡± ¡°The Goddess of war and Punishment, Freyja the flame hearth, The God of Sea and water Baruna the high Dragon, The God of knowledge and Technology Brahma, The Goddess of Moon and Love Serenity, The goddess of justice and honesty Justinia,The God of Trickery and Wisdom Loki, The God of Darkness and Tranquility Shiva, The Goddess of light and virtue Lady Lichtiel, and last The supreme one, king of Gods Indra....¡± ¡°...............i.... see...................¡± ¡°Also in this world there are power ranking such as from the lowest.. Novice, Senior, Master, Grand Master, Sage and Divine... If you aim for become an adventurer you need at least in the Senior stage.¡± ¡°So, how do I get recognition to achieve that?¡± ¡°First , you need to pass from any school, to do that you need to finish all the quests from the school and gain recognition by masters who teach the classes¡± That is weird... Stages were classified not by recognition but by a duel dead and life between two people and also achievement in combat........ ¡°So, if I finish school I got recognition as senior stage?¡± ¡° Yea dear sister... fufufufu but I am sure you will pass school easily..¡± ¡°big sister and granpa what is your stage now?¡± ¡°hohohoho... I don''t want to brag but I am at grandmaster stage while your sister cyrrila still on master stage¡± ¡°If passing school you got recognition as senior stage after that how we improve our stage.¡± ¡°through achievement of course......, Grandpa has many achievement on the war with the monsters.. and me, my achievement was finished many subjugation monsters quests also the best one we have conquered 4 level S dungeon fufufu..." "whoaaaaaa........grandpa you are awesome!!! " "hohohoho of course my dear hohoho" "hmph just grandpa??" " no no big sis much more awesome! you are still young but could achieve master stage!" "fufuufufufufu..." "but umm.... what is dungeon??" "Oh well! dungeon is a den of monsters, every monsters usually coming from a rift.. a rift will be evolve into a dungeon... the bigger the rift, the hardest dungeon can get.... dungeon itself divided by five level ...so far..... from the hardest S,A,B,C,and D. If you conquered the dungeon you will get a lot of treasures and the dungeon will become a gold mines. The adventurer who conquered it get 10% shareholder from the mines, because every mines that discovered will be owned by the kingdom who own the area" "..... i see......then back to topic.... how can i get into any school!" "Not just any school!! The most prestigious and the best school!!

Chapter 7 The Butchering Tournament Enjoy!!!! Chapter 7 The Butchering Tournament Eiditch Arena Colluseum The crowd are cheering and taunting in the same time. Loud noises all surround me, consisted by many foul words and encouragements.... but one thing they have in common, they all want to see entertainment, combat, and blood. Now, in front of me stood a big fat human, consisted by muscles and meats. He has bulky muscle on both arm and legs. However, those fat belly really look disgusting. From his looks, I could guess he is a strong physical type and relied solely on his strength... He is sneering at me and laughing thinking it will be easy fight. On his right hand, he armed himself with a big axe. while, his other hand touching his stuff with shouting foul words at me. "HEY YOU MEATHOLE!!! YEAH YOU.... YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL HOW ABOUT I FUCK YOU FIRST THEN I WILL DECIDE YOUR FATE HUH? YOU WILL BE LOOK PREETTY WHEN YOU UNDER ME GASPING FOR AIR!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA" i sigh..... and look at my Stiletto, a gift from Grandpa. A small dagger fit with my hands. its blade were black colored with some red rune engrave in it side. The rune itself were enchanted by Cyril. The rune enchanted with [Anti break] and [Sharp edges] spell..... I could still remember we were argued about my decision participating in this tournament. _____________________________________________________________________________________ a month before at Ziira''eel''s mansion "huh?" "Yes! i will definitely participating on this tournament" "What? why? " "With this event i could learn how much average warrior power and compare it with my own. Also it will be exciting!" "Dear.. Thought I amused by your idea but this tournament is dangerous. This is a bloodbath, there are no protection with the people who participated. Most people were die or worse." "Grandpa is right, this tournament usually for Mercenary, Combat workers or Bandits trying to become adventurer and find connection in the school." "combat workers?" "Adventurer is a job ,that has license by all the kingdoms, and it''s quests were distributed, researched and analyzed by government. On other hand, combat workers are not licensed and most of it quests were doing black dealing." "Big sis... now or later I will be faced by any danger.... I live with many dangerous monsters and I survived. You know I could fight well big sis......" "but......." "If is that is your wish my little swallow, I no... we will support you........ go rest now. Tomorrow you will spar with me. If you could blow 1 hit to me, I will grant you a weapon from my personal inventory hohohohoho" "Reaaalllllly!!!!!!" "if you could hit me but I doubt that hohohohoho" ___________________________________________________________________________________ Eiditch Arena Colluseum "hehehe now who doubt who grandpa" "EACH PARTICIPANT READY!!!!!!? " ahhhhh.... so it is started, i am getting bored for all the wait................... "GUHAHAHAHAHHA CANT WAIT TO FUCK HRRYYYYYYY" "ready......" "IN THE NAME OF GODDESS FREYJA AND GODDESS OF JUSTINIA! THE MATCH START!!!" That fat man start dashing quickly at me.. he is so slow compare it with a cockroach...... and I could sense he is focusing his internal mana into his right hand. I suspect he will use his dashing momentum and launch a single strike skill with his axe.... seriously? is it all participant here just using brute strength.... "haaah" I sigh again and run at him. he will be surprise that his prey will challenge to charge on him. As expected, he is surprised and lose his momentum but still forcefully use his skill. "Fuck! mountain crasher!!!!" Because I disrupt his momentum... I easily side step dodging his so called "mountain crusher", reducing it into just a simple swing at the dirt. Before he could pull his axe, I swiftly slash his right hand cutting his blood artery and hand nerve. That fat guy quickly losing a lot of blood and can''t even move his finger anymore. He falls on his knee in shock and immediately changes into frighten on his face. Stolen story; please report. Before he could say anything, I stab his right eye into his brain, to end his miserable life in a second. All the crowds were silence for awhile and gradually they all cheering so loud... Seriously, this tournament just a bloody butchering show. At the start we were divided into 8 groups. Each groups has more or less than 50 participant. From the first round we did "Last Man Standing" in every group. Participants will killing each other until one man survive. After that, the survivor would battling with another winner from another groups. Well apparently that fat man the winner from group E. Tomorrow will be the semi final and final... ughh... i got a lot of blood all over of my body.. I need to shower.... _____________________________________________________________________________________ Certain young noble PoV I come to coliseum with my friends from the academy. They said, I will see some commoners fighting like a dogs fighting for a bone. The first round was terrifying... They truly kill each other like a dogs. All my friends were laughing at them. However, I am not a fan of blood and fighting but one of my friend are the fifth prince of Eiditch Kingdom, it would be rude to refuse his invitation. All the participants all look so brawny and rough.. but one person took my interest. She is a kid just like us . for the first time I saw her, I thought i saw an illusion of a goddess..... one word to describe her.... beautiful... in many ways....but then I was realize, she is in the middle of that dangerous tournament! how? Why?........................... I heard a lot of commoner are so poor and force to bet their life into dangerous job for money...... but...but....she can''t be a commoner... Before long, round one started.... i came back to my sense and looked for the girl but she was so fast. I could look, just a sec in there and then she disappeared.... before I knew there were 5 person who''s still standing, included the girl. Then, the girl start to move so fast, even I from knight class can''t see her movement.. from what i could see the rest participants was sliced in their throat or pierced in the hearth by that girl.... hence, she has blood all over her body. That just make it her more beautiful and dangerous.... There are no trace of any feeling in her face... even many pile of bodies , blood, piss and tear in there, She just silence then, casually leave the arena, like nothing happen at all..... At the end of the first round. I could add two more words to describe her..... cold, beautiful and dangerous...... really dangerous.... "......who is that girl!! Damn! she is hot!!" "gahahahhahaha... i hope she will accepted in the academy... a commoner like her, is best becomes my slaves!! she will be honored!!!" "Prince Belmont.. are you sure she is a commoner, from her looks.. she is undoubtedly a princess or some highborn nobles...and she is scary.. didn''t your highness see how she kill every last one participants." "pfffftttt Albert...such scredy cat as always.... they are all commoner need some money! and prince Belmont offer will make her rich! she would be agree becomes the prince''s slave hahahahaha! isnt that right prince belmont!" "Gahahahaha Ted you always has a good words on you... yeah at least she deserves in my bed hahaha!!" Guuh... this prince really different from all his brothers and sisters.... he just a huge pervert and disgusting man... if it''s not from his status, I would never hang around him.... and for some reason, I think, she would refuse this foolish prince offer...... I mean not peacefully refuse..... _______________________________________________________________________________________________ heya there! early update from me i got free times now ,yay!!! okay, the awakening arc almost end and will continue to the school arc!! is there any ideas how it goes or advice for me...... thank you please comment!!! Chapter 8 a Soul weapon and a foolish magician Chapter 8 Soul weapon "Gahahahahhaha you guys are so wimpy and weak! come on !!!!" "Grrrr.... Ryuu!! we need to use all our strength! can we use it now... i really hate that smug on his face...." "Don''t just talk !! oraaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!" "Pleasee.. dont hit my ass again!!!! do seriously!!!!" Before my next match in semi final, the participants got 2 days off. Currently, I am watching how grandpa kick Gajeel''s and ryuu''s ass.... I mean literally.. grandpa only aim their asses, both Ryu and Gajeel were played like a cattle by grandpa.... I must admit grandpa has a lot of experiences in combat, he knew all Ryuu and Gajeel''s combat combination skills and with that he easily counter them. "i have enough of this old man! Gajeel now!" "Eat this old man!!!" "El Cida heed my call protect me and slice my foe before me!" "Blod Reaver let''s have some bloood!!!!!" Suddenly, all mana round their weapon intensifies. Their weapon shining as coming from their calling... Ryu''uk shields and mace has shining with gray color. While, Gajeel axe has become larger and has many red streak thunder coming out from the head of the axe. Both has ominous feeling around it. "This technique......" "Surprise lil sis?? Gajeel and Ryu''uk already break through to early stage at master level. That is why they could summon their soul weapon..." ¡­. Soul weapon..... is similar to that elvhen technique ¡°Armament¡±?? but how??....... "Now!" Suddenly, Ryu''uk dashing to grandpa. His speed increased twice as before... He use his shield at the front and bash it to grandpa... however, grandpa already predict his movement. Even though a bit late, he jump back to dodge. Despite that, Ryu''uk''s shield produce wave of force that forced grandpa receive a blow.... Suddenly, Gajeel already next to grandpa and using one of his cleave technique. Grandpa a bit startled but could parry his strike desperately. Now, grandpa doesn''t have that smug on his face. ¡°Well, I would congratulate them making grandpa serious fufufufufufu¡± Again they start the battle. With Gajeel start the fight with his skills ¡°earth spliter¡±. He aim his haxe to the ground. The ground shaking with so much force until the ground around grandpa stood up, split and summoning earth thorns. Grandpa with no weapon and armor either, change his stature into defensive move. Both his arms raises protecting his head and body. While grandpa swallowed by Gajeel skills, Ryu''uk already in the middle launching his attack. ¡°Wheew.... so much forces gathering in the top of his sword....¡± ¡°Heeee... That is Ryu''uk''s ultimate skill ¡°Charge of Theordon¡± it has a great damage dealer but slow cast... however, Gajeel already remove those issue¡± Because grandpa already cant move... Ryu''uk has enough time to launch his grand attack... Ryu''uk already charge into grandpa. It is so fast and the force are too strong making the ground destroyed on its path. Yet, in split of second I could sense much much more mana surrounding Grandpa. His body were shining so brightly. The force around grandpa too strong making the ground that swallowed grandpa destroyed in pieces. Ryu''uk whose already near grandpa were shocked on the outcome and still desperately continuing his attack on grandpa. Suddenly, a Super loud ¡°CLANG¡± noise appeared with so much force .On its wake, Throwing Ryu''uk away from the clash like a rag of doll. Then appear a great sword floating protected grandpa. The great sword has Black color with red blood fire around its pommel and cross guard. The edge has dark color and has same aura with grandpa. The cross guard itself has a terrifying dragon head looks while its ruby eyes shining with red fire. It''s fire doesn''t seems hurting grandpa. ¡°And thats.. grandpa''s soul weapon ¡°Dragneel claw¡±... Grand already on his late stage grandmaster level. Not just could summoning his soul weapon.. he becomes one with it....¡± ¡°ummm....i...t is powerful but... is Ryu''uk okay? He doesn''t move at all.....¡± ¡°Oh Oooops! MAIDS CALL THE MEDIC NOW.... I forgot to prepare it.... teehee¡± ¡°Gyahahahahahahhahaha..... thats it??? come one I just getting started!!!¡± Now, grandpa busy venting about, how he only start to getting serious then all done, Gajeel helplessly listening on grandpa venting, Cyril helping ryu''uk with her recovery spell. Meanwhile.... ¡°Yawwwnnn... Hey lil elf, whats up with this noises... ....¡± ¡°.................hmmmm....nothing much.............¡± ¡°Yawn... well I go back to sleep......yawn......¡± This girl really taking all too easily..... Then I look at grandpa who is walking to me with a wide grin on his face... ¡°So.... have you learned anything from that my cute granddaughter!¡± ¡°Yes Grandpa....! first you must endure their attack while learned all about enemy movement and at the same time harass them until they lose patient... when they lose their patient.. they tend to use all their power without reserve!! Then, they will lose their stamina faster .Hence, they will make mistakes!!!¡± ¡°Atta girl!!!! so what do you need to learn more ???¡± ¡°hmmmmm........... Harassment words??¡± ¡°Gyahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!¡± _____________________________________________________________________________________ Semi Final day, Eidith Arena Colluseum "LADIES AND GENTLEMENTS!!!!

If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hekate pov "Such embarrassing opening....ugh...." Currently, I am in the middle of arena, flocking with much more supporter then yesterday.... Sera said, I got a lot of fans out there.. .... She said my looks and behavior awakens a new kind of fetish in the kingdom.... what is a "fetish" mean? more new language I don''t know???.... Supporters* "Waaaaaaa Mistresss please step on meee!!! hurt meee please!!!!!" "Owaaa Goddess Loli !!!!!!! Please Look at me with your sadist eyes!!! Waaaaaaa!!!" "Huffff Hufff huffff...!!!!!! Whip me please whip meeeee!!!!" ........... are they supporting me or asking for punishment?? is this how normally people supporting someone this days...... Arghh a new world has more weird stuff in it!!!! In front of me stood a skinny man with dark green robes. he wield a scepter in his right hand, glowing with ominous green aura. He may be look weak and the mana around him are thin. However, the rings in his left fingers are condense with thick mana... even ordinary magician can''t sense it, because it has conceal spell but not me... he has 3 kind of rings... each has red, brown and white gem.... "gehhehehehe... how a loli goddess in crisp taste like guhihihihi?" "hmph...................unsightly" He starts to move prepare his spells before the battle starts... then I will start my defensive form and as always, learning about my enemy first.... "ON MY MARK!!! 3 2 1! LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!!!!" I run towards him while i pick some sand stone while at it.... before i reach it i throw the rock sand targeting his head.... he retaliate with firing a condense of mana using his sceptre hence the stone were destroyed leaving sands all over his face. The stone becomes sand and disturbing his vision for a while... it is enough, for a moment distraction... Then, i run circling him and attack at his left side.. i slash his body .However.. my attacked was stopped at 5 cm from the target.... He was startled at first then smile.... a magic shield... without incantation!!? ...i start to jump back get a safe distance... Nonetheless, i am welcomed by an earth spike spell.... again no incantation.... Guhh.... this is annoying... luckily, i am nimble with my foot.. i strengthening my foot by condensing my aura around it and landing at side of earth spike and jump down again into another side of earth spike.... while at it i notice a flicker glow from the rings when he using his spells... now his red ring glowing... then he sending a torrent fire at me. He planned to slowing me down by the earth spike and this torrent of fire will destroying the earth spike while I am buried under it.... "well well nice try... however.." I use my technique art for the second time after awaken... "shadow flicked.." using my technique art, I am teleported to the target shadow... as my target is.. of course... my enemy''s shadow... i emerge from his shadow on his back... i could see a smirk on his face..thinking i was burned and buried.. quickly his face changes into terror... i slash at his back.. a large diagonal wound flowing with a lot of blood emerge... he hurriedly throwing his scepter at me.. such a foolish move but it is not... i knew his main weapon is the ring not his scepter... So the scepter will be... his escaping tools... as to answer my deduction.. the scepter were blasted summoning forces that throwing me and him to the each side of the coliseum... now he has long distance from me and has time to preparing his spells... his face now full of dread and wrath.... "YOU BITCH!!! YOU DARE TO SLASH ME IN THE BACK!!! I WILL BURN YOU ALIVE SLOWLY!! AND FEEL MY WRATH!!!!!" That''s it the second step.. make your enemy angry at you removing his calm....and... ... suddenly a blast or red ray shooting at me.... the ray was off the target and slow too, so I could easily dodge it...Hmm now the red one glowing... the interval between each his spells was 12 seconds and he could only use one ring for a time then recharging it for 12 seconds... while red ring mainly for attack then... I quickly increasing my speed.... before that, i placed my other knife in the ground. To make it looks I am desperate and on my last line. Just under 2 meters from him, I purposely slowing my pace so he has enough time conjure his skills.. quickly his brown ring glowing... the ground around me change into mud and sucking me... it seems, the brown one for disabling spell... "NOW!!! YOU BITCH CANT EVEN MOVE!! GUHEHEHE OHOK OHOK.." ¡­....seriously if you hurts don''t speak so loud.... "YOU TRAPPED NOW BITCH!!! HAHAHAHA I WILL BURN YOU SLOWLY....!!!!!" "......smirk*......." "WHAT ARE YOU SMILING ABOUT!!!!!!" "....how unsightly funny when a cockroach thinking he could win....." "YOU BITCH!!!" " i smirk..¡± ¡­.counting every seconds... exactly 12 seconds.. he doesn''t realize it.. While he is busy swearing, I throw my last dagger at him. He is startled and force him to use one of his rings power for protection. My dagger is reflected by his mana shield... Then, I quickly use my ¡°shadow flicked¡± into his shadow. Before he knew, I jump from his back and catch my dagger. ¡°WHAAAA...................!!!¡± I continued my movement to slashing him down... he was shocked and desperately up his left hand try to protect his head. Unfortunately, That is what I really aim. I cut all his left fingers for disabling all his weapon. And checkmate.... ¡°noisy¡± I left my final word and quickly,I slashed his throat before he said a word.... Magician could be dangerous if he has time to cast a spell.... His blood spit out so much after I cut his throat... he start to have spasm before die..... The spectator are all in silence.... well this good I like silence... then I start walk casually leave the arena... but before I arrive at the end of arena.... a really loud cried from all the supporters.... ¡°WAAAAAAAAAA¡± ¡°THAT WAS AWESOMEEEE!!!!!¡± ¡°MORE BLOOOOD!!! MORE FIGHTING!!!! WE NEED YOU MOREEEE!!!!¡± ¡°OOHHH GODDESSS OF LOLI PLEASE GIVE THIS HUMBLE BEATING!!!!!!¡± ¡­....ughhh..... so noisy!!!!!!...... now I need to catch up with Sera.. I promise her to watch the next match... Gajeel said there is interesting person in this tournament.... ¡°that boy¡± he said.... hmm....
