Chapter 68: A certain Climax.
Before Blitz emerged victorious in the War of the Worlds, conflict was a matter of shields, swords, spears, and raw intellect.But after that global upheaval, supernatural powers became more common, and nations were quick to capitalize.While the world never saw another grand-scale war, border scuffles and castle sieges remained frequent—small armies settling disputes with steel. Yet, nothing in recent history compared to the magnitude of two full kingdoms engaging in total war. The eyes of the world were fixed upon them.Warfare had evolved; it was no longer fought with weapons and intellect alone, but with supernatural abilities. For a century, the presence of gifted individuals had become a near-requirement for victory.Nations lacking these individuals suffered until they developed ways to counter them. Skyra spearheaded these experiments, creating tools that made relying solely on ability users a gamble. In modern war, if you overextended your gifted soldiers and they exhausted t
Chapter 67: Let's go save your virgins
Blitz’s middle flank, led by Rios, circled behind their own left wing and dove headfirst into the rising wall of dust.The Ignis Right Flank stood paralyzed and blind. The only warning they had was the rhythmic thunder of hooves and the growing roar of voices drawing nearer."Loose!"A thousand arrows hissed from the dust cloud."SHIELDS!" the commander yelled.Klink. Klink. Thwack."Oof! No!"Arrows bounced off the heavy plating or slipped through the narrowest cracks, slaughtering the men behind the wood. "Replace him!" an officer barked, and infantrymen scrambled to hoist the shields of their fallen allies. The volley stopped as suddenly as it had begun, replaced by the terrifyingly clear sound of screaming men and galloping horses.The soldiers stared into the swirling grit, their hearts beating faster than the ground rumbling beneath them. They knew what was coming. In those final seconds of realization, some wiped sweat from their eyes, some dropped their weapons in despair, and
Venomous fangs attack!
"What are they doing?" the brigade commander asked.Nelry, the twenty-three-year-old general in charge of Ignis’s three front flanks, turned his head, searching for whoever Seno was addressing.Seno was twenty-eight, built with a muscular frame, brown hair, and striking blue eyes. He possessed a reassuring face and had been Nelry’s closest friend since childhood. Seno was the one who had always dreamed of being a great general, while Nelry had been an orphan, and Seno abandoned, both left to toil in barren fields for the longest time.Before Ignis started recruiting, Seno had spent his days dreaming of commanding armies and reaching greatness. Nelry, by contrast, wanted nothing more than the simple life of a farmer. More than anything, he wanted to escape the crushing weight of being alone. After his parents died, solitude had become his only companion—and he hated it.Seno had found him on a cold, abandoned street one night, just an inch away from nothingness. They bonded over their
Chapter 65: Dust screen
Storm Front stood on the southern border of Blitz, the most fortified state in the realm. Its soldiers were carved from constant readiness, born into a culture of war. From its gates, the road to Ignis was a straight, wide-open plain—a terrain where every movement kicked up a choking veil of dust.To the far edges of the horizon, mountain ranges rose like natural walls, their steep, rocky slopes creating an impenetrable barrier. There were no passes and no hidden routes; there was only the vast, exposed throat of the plains between two stone giants.During the intense warfare four hundred years ago, both nations established lookout posts along this road. Ignis and Blitz were perpetually at each other’s throats, and since this path offered easy access to either nation’s backyard, keeping an eye on the enemy's knife was the only way to stay alive. Historically, Ignis had been the aggressor, raining attacks down this road until Blitz poured its vast resources into fortifying the state. N
A general's burden
Rios sat atop his horse, a solitary figure standing before seventy thousand soldiers. They were a firm line of defiance against the three hundred thousand men of Ignis.Of all the thoughts racing through Rios’s mind, losing was not one of them. Though half a day had passed since their arrival, the Ignis army only crept forward, their pace so agonizingly slow it bordered on cowardice."Hey, Blezir," Rios called to the man beside him.Blezir was one of the original ten thousand members, but Rios had kept him on a low profile. He felt that if a true war ever broke out, Blezir would be his most valuable asset. Now, it was time to prove it."Yes?" Blezir answered."If you were the general of an army of three hundred thousand against seventy thousand, what would you do?"The sun began its descent, and a sudden wind swept through the plains. It kicked up an enormous cloud of dust, blinding both armies for six long minutes."Hmmm?" Blezir mused, before grinning wildly. At twenty-six, he was a
A gathering of shadows: part 2
A void it was, until a fire lit up.But it lit up nothing. The flame burned in the darkness, yet it illuminated no surroundings. From that fire, a shadowed throne appeared directly in front of it. Then another appeared. Then another.One by one, ten thrones manifested within the void.Nine occupants sat upon them, all silhouettes—dark shadows resting upon their seats.“I know we haven't been having these meetings regularly, but isn't it too soon since the last one?” the silky voice of a woman spoke over the burning flames. Even as a shadow, her shape was that of an hourglass.“Shut up, Tyra,” the voice of a young girl challenged the receding voice. Her shape was that of a child, probably thirteen or fourteen years old. Kyo.Another shadow with the appearance and grace of a woman placed her elbow on the armrest of her throne and rested her chin in her palm. “So what's this about?” she asked lazily. “We're all in different kingdoms, suppressing our powers so the Kurai doesn't track us.
