Chapter 1: The dukes request
'Should I run?' He sat at the edge of his bed clutching to his sword as the candle flickered threatening to go out, he turned to the door as the sound of cheers rose up the stairs from the first floor filling the corridor.'How can they still be celebrating?' He sighed hoping their noise could distract him from the question that plagued him all night yet their noise couldn't distract him from his grim reality."Tap.tap.tap"The floor faintly creaked as he kept tapping his foot on the floor 'should I run?'"Tap...tap....tap.."The taping seemed to slowly down as he rubbed the dark circles under his eyes, He was only fifteen yet it seemed his life could end if he didn't leave soon.'The knights haven't arrived' he rose from the bed moving the sword to his hip and turning to the door 'the captain will have to forgive me, I didn't become a mercenary to die''Why should I die for a Kingdom that barely cares about me? And with people I've only known for a year' he took a deep breaths grabbi
Chapter 2.1: The dukes son
"Vex tell me" a child that seemed to be no older than teen looked up at the man that had a skull as a cap and spoke "yes dad""If the world is an unjust place, why do people play by its rules?" Vex shrugged looking up at the smile on his fathers face.He crouched down and looked Vex in the eyes "people tolerate the injustice of the world is because they are cowards, like you""Kurk" Vex purked blood as his father grinned, he felt a piercing feeling in his stomach but couldn't look down as his father held his head "but always remember our lord diablo will soon correct this injustice if we do our part and destroy everything that apposes the demons""Slash" the dagger that had been in Vex stomach slashed to his right side tearing his stomach open."Thud" his heart raced as he dropped to his knee's, the world seemed to get darker in this already dim room.The last comforting words he heard from the man who held the dagger that tore him open, from the man he called father was "Our lord wil

"Its a wild coincidence that you also have tattoo on top of the many similarities we share" Vex spoke and in an instant Dex stumped the carriage."You see it too" he turned to Vex "I've been trying to tell him the same thing but he keeps saying no"Leto shock his head "and I stand on that statement""I only have one tattoo on my neck and thats a heart tattoo" he turned to Vex "while he is plagued with tattoos!""Hey why the fuck do you say it as if I have have some kind of disease" Vex shoot back startled by Leto's response."Hahahaa.." Dex laughed at Vex "...yeah you do look sick in the head haha.." some laughed hearing Dex."Im just saying it how I see it" Leto spoke "we are only around fifteen yet you look as if your a gang veteran""HAHAHA!..." Dex laugh got louder as he pointed to Vex ".. thats why only older women a comfortable sleeping with him, he scares the shit out of girls around our age Haha..""Hey I told you that in secret" as Vex spoke some gasped."You mean the rumours
Chapter 3: The duke
Vex was the last one to step out of the carriage as some teens looked around with their jaws slacked.They were at the capital of the territory and the sight had left some eyes wide open as they looked at the towering buildings around them, some seemed to be made of glass and the stone street was so clean that one could eat off it .But the sight that froze even the adults was the white marble palace that stood at the center of they city as they stood outside it's silver gates that had golden trim.Vex sighed looking at everything, he was intentionally avoiding the capital for the past year to lower the possibility of being found by the church.'For now I should stay silent and observe' he took a few steps back into the crowd of sweaty man as the teenagers stood at the front of the gate looking the carriages move away.His gaze turned to the knights around them on horses 'they making sure no one leaves'The mercenaries were moved to the border to defend the territory excluding the mer
Chapter 4: meaningless lives
"Thud, thud,thud" the ground rumbled as the sounds of steps were heard by everyone at the boarder.The tree's shock from their every step and rocks danced at the southern boarder."Damn they really choose to come in this heat" he wiped the sweat off his forehead as the sun stood at its peak.A few chucked hearing the mans words but that was short lived as with every step their enemies took the tension thickened in the air."Open the gates!" An red armoured figure standing at the top of the wall spoke as he looked to the figures approaching from the mountains.The screeching of metal rang through the terrain as the gate opened, the red knight turned to the man in black armour by his side."Tell the mercenaries to step outside and form a defencive wall" the man in black armour froze, his eyes widened hearing the madness of his superior."Sir those man will die" he spoke back but the red knight didn't bother to look at him."they will die defending their nation that is a great honour wor
Chapter 5: The plan 1
"Your grace!" His breathing was slightly uneven as he spoke after running to duke Ramsey with a black crystal in his hand."What is it?" The duke turned away from the crowd of cheering man that stood at his palace stairs.He kneeled as he reached out both arms holding a black orb "the southern wall has fallen""What?" A knight next to the duke spoke and in that moment the duke gave him a cold side eye "this is the second time you spoke without my command"The armour figure kneeled "my apologies your grace"The duke gaze turned to the ragged man at his stairs as if to see if they heard anything but judging by the smiles on their faces they heard nothing.The duke took the orb and poured his aura into it, an image of a tanned man with a brush cut appeared.Screams could be heard behind the man as he ran, the duke gaze narrowed looking at the orb "Don report the situation"Don said nothing as he ran in his dark armour glancing back every ten steps but a few wooden houses would appeared o
Chapter 6: The plan 2
Vex said nothing as he looked at the two.And Dex sighed turning to the ceiling ''he's serious''He let go of Leo's mouth and in instant the boy spoke "have you even thought this through?""Yeah" without hesitation Vex replied."No you haven't" Leo shock his head "if you did, you would know that the duke will kill you the instant he finds out"'I'm more worried about the church than the duke right now' Vex sighed ''thats only if he survives''Their eyes widened."Wait, what do mean if he "survives"-'' Dex spoke in hushed tone as he crouched next to Vex."Do you know the ranks of the demon king generals?" Vex stood up as Leto stood from his couch"No but one of the knights that came earlier said the one at the border is an eight star" Vex recalled the knight that told Leto to not worry because the demon king general was only an eight star.It seemed the duke might not need to step in because his head knight was an eight star aura user but Vex knew they were wrong.While growing up unde
Chapter 7: A better tomorrow
At the northern border of the tyrant domain, women and children rushed through border poring into other territories as some climbing over the fance.The gate at the border was flooded and the knights that were at the border were from the Lionheart dukedom.One of the knights in silver armour with a crest of a lion across his chest plate sighed as he looked at the unhinged gate being trampled on.They rushed past the knights, no one dared to look back this was the only opportunity they had to leave this territory.The border had always been guarded by the duke Ramsey knights and they would often kill any commoner that tried to leave the territory without a hint of remorse as the Lionheart knights watched from the other side of the fance with heavy hearts.Now every knight at the border stood and watched as women and children poured into the Lionheart dukedom."Sir shouldn't we stop them?" a boy in his early twenties spoke looking outside the window of the commenders office.A man with
Chapter 8.1: How to kill a knight 1
"Hey" Dex shock Vex who just stood there staring at Tristans hand.Vex jaw clenched as the aching shoulder snapped him back to reality but he couldn't even fake a smile as he looked at Tristan for a moment.His face expressionless for momentarily then he reached out and shock his hand with a lackluster smile."You don't seem happy about getting to know each other" Tristan spoke leaning closer to Vex.'Him being a knight changes nothing' Vex smile faded as he stepped back and spoke with a even tone "It's my pleasure meet you"Tristan smiled tightening his grip on Vex hand yet Vex expression never changed."I hope so" Tristan let go of Vex and turned to Leto while Vex unclenched his jaw."Ok then lets go" Leto spoke turning to the hallway on the left side of the stairs, the introductions where over before they even began, Leto's noble friends had no interest in knowing commoners and Vex friends had no interest in knowing them.As such as they walked down the hallway passing through the

Vex moved, his expression calm as his drove the kitchen knife into the nearest person to him."RUUNNN!" someone shouted as they ran awaySome tripped and in an instant were trempled on while others tasted death at the hands of Vex blade, they couldn't run fast enough being slowed down by the people in front of them.But no one stopped as the screams bounced off the marble walls.Everyone understood what could happen next if they stopped, if they slowed down.As such some boy pushed others out of the way trying to run faster through the crowd that fill the hallway, while those who were shoved to side fell and filled the hallway with their screams as each step crushed them closer to dead.As they pushed each other and killed each other in the hope of survival they failed to realise that Vex had long stopped.He had long vanished into the crowd now the only thing they were fleeing were the screams that filled the hallway.While most boys ran from the the kitchen a boy in jade suit cursed
