About 8 hours since the war started and the sun was setting. The armies of the nations had managed to push back the Scarlett Army after much struggle. The Scarlett Army was retreating and those that didn’t get teleported were hunted down or captured as prisoners of war.

Cries and cheers of victory resounded from the soldiers. The Colossi that assisted them had returned to their abodes. Words of gratitude came from the soldiers as they watched the Colossi walk or flew or swam away.

The crisis in the bunkers were also neutralised thanks to the knights and Hunters working together. Although there had been a quarrel between the citizens, it was soon resolved by themselves.

All in all, the war ended with their victory and the Scarlett Army’s loss. Prays to their God and words of gratitude toward the Hunters and soldiers came from the citizens. Flags and banners of each nation flapped in the wind of their battlefield while the flag of the Scarlett Empire was on the ground.

    Somewhere in the desert of San Coro where Megat’s hideout was located.Megat, Shiro and Freeze were outside of the house. The reason for this was huge, Colossal actually.“Thanks for lending a hand. Pass on our gratitude to the others as well, would you?” Megat said to the giant beast in front of him.“It was not easy to convince everyone. The only reason they agreed was because of a common enemy. Some of us were killed by them after all.” Falynx said.Falynx was currently on the ground with its body curled around like a snake. Its wings were folded under it. Its voice was deep.“We owe you one. If there’s anything we can do-”“Hah! As if you can do anything for us.” Falynx said proudly. “However, I believe all of the Colossi would not mind fighting against the Scarlett Army again in the future.”“I’d appreciate that. We definitely will be needing your help.” Megat said.“Right. I will be on my way then. Farewell.”“Yeah, good bye.”After exchanging farewells, Falynx uncurled its body

    It has been a week since the war.Cecilia and Yuki were standing in front of their mansion. It was partially destroyed and was already being fixed. Construction workers were working on the mansion.“When do you think it will be finished?” Cecilia asked.“I don’t know. If they use magic, maybe just a few more days. If it’s like this, maybe a few more weeks.” Yuki answered.They were both wearing thick clothing. Winter had arrived shortly after the war, but the workers were still working on the mansion.“Shouldn’t you be busy with noble stuff?” Yuki asked Cecilia.“Right now everyone is just dealing with their own regions. The region I’m in charge of sustained the least damage so I’m not as busy. A lot of damage was in the north and western regions.”“Your parents are busier huh.”“Mmhmm.”Their short conversation momentarily ended there. They were just watching the workers do their job. There was almost no-one walking on the streets either. Just a few carriages passing by every few min

  • BLAIR   Chapter 199: A Little Jog

    In a dense forest that had no leaves nor life to be seen, two figures were having a jog in the snow. One was taller than the other. Their pacing was about the same even with their difference in height.The tall one was a golden haired young man with heterochromia eyes of bright blue and golden irises. He was only wearing a white tracksuit in this cold weather. His right hand was that of a lizard’s or rather, a dragon with red scales.The short one was a girl who seemed to be around 15 years old. She had darker skin and was also wearing a tracksuit, only green in colour. Her hair was short and also dull green and she had a pair of tiny horns on her head.“How many laps have we done already?” Chloe, the green haired girl, asked and was out of breath.“I think three? Hey, hang in there! Just two more laps!” Matthew, the man in white suit, said to Chloe.“I’m so tired! My legs are killing me!” Chloe’s pace was slowing down because she was wobbling as her motivation was dying out.“Then w

    Three months later.“Grr!!” Matthew groaned as he was doing push ups with a large boulder tied to his back.“Come on Matt, just fourteen more.” Then there was also Raisya on top of the boulder.“This is nothing!”“Good then. Let’s add another ten.”“What?!” Matthew snapped his head back to look at Raisya, but he couldn’t see past the giant boulder.“I thought it was nothing?” Raisya smirked.“Don’t bring down my motivation like that!” Matthew shouted at his grandmother.Raisya smiled happily with her eyes closed. “You can do it~”Raisya looked at the night sky and reminisced about the past few months.Matthew had cleared her training at a very quick pace. It has only been in the recent week that he slowed down a bit.(Well, he’s already trained since he was a child, so he’s practically just picking up where he left off. Since Rin was the one mostly training him, I think the method is okay. But his physical condition is pretty much that of a normal human’s.)It was the reason that Matt

    Matthew and Raisya were standing in front of the cave while waving at Platinum and Guinevere who were flying away. Once they were far away, Matthew put down his hand and Raisya did the same.“Didn’t really feel like I just met the queen of elves.” Matthew said.“Well, she didn’t come as the queen anyway, rather just a friend that Plat brought.” Raisya said. “So, what do you plan on doing now?”“I think I’ll go with Queen Guinevere’s suggestion. Gain trust, get stronger, prove my worth. Then, I’ll find Rose.”“I see. How do you plan on gaining trust though?” Raisya asked as she turned around to go back into the cave.Matthew followed her suit. “I have no idea to be honest. I’ll mull it over though. For now, all I can do is keep training. To declare myself as a Dragon Emperor, I need the power to prove it, right?”Raisya nodded as if she expected this. "Huh, that's right.”“Then I’ll be in your care, grandma. I at least want to beat you if I want to do this.”“Heh! Good luck with that.

    Boom!A wooden statue was exploded into tiny pieces that scattered around.Sploosh~Another melted like liquid after being covered with dark green goo.Shing! Splash! Bam! Froom!More wooden statues were destroyed in many manners of attacks. Invisible wind blades, powerful blasts of water, earth spikes and infernos. It was not just the statues but the area nearby was also affected by these attacks.All of these magic based attacks were casted by a single person. It was a girl with bright pink hair and she had a red left eye and a pink right eye. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail and she wore simple casual clothing. Rose dropped her hand down after she finished casting all those spells. She was gasping lightly.“Nicely done.” A man’s voice came from behind her.He had long black hair that was neatly combed back and he had dark green eyes. He was wearing a black and green tracksuit and was walking towards Rose.“The speed of your casts have increased. The way I taught you is easier,

    “[Crimson Burst Slash]!”Tens of slashes were instantly released in the blink of an eye. Those slashes cut a stone pole into many pieces. The pieces fell to the ground with heavy thuds.Rain sheathed his sword back into its scabbard and exhaled. He frowned at the result that he got. He was disappointed.“I’ve been training for months but I feel like I haven’t made any progress at all. These dummies can’t be a benchmark for me.” Rain looked at all the destroyed training equipment laid around.He remembered the time when he fought against Crymillia. He thought that he put up a good fight at first. He just couldn’t find a way to finish the fight. He thought that he could somehow overcome Crymillia. He was wrong.Crymillia showed her true power. The menacing aura Rain felt at that moment froze him in place. He couldn’t move due to fear. Rain felt goosebumps every time he recalled that feeling. A presence stronger than even the Colossi who were considered legendary beasts.“Even when fight

    At the edge of the pit, it was them. A total of nine of the Scarlett family members.From the right, a woman with long red hair and black and white dress was casting a healing spell on Bilgrae. A male elf in full black armour with a star shaped bang of three red points and two white points and his black hair was split in the middle. A demon with dark violet hair and a pair of horns at the side of her head and wore a jet black skin tight suit which exposed certain parts, Crymillia. In the middle, it was a man with short bright red hair wearing a black and gold robe. Then, a man with black hair in a red and black suit. Another demon with about the same features as Crymillia except that his hair was short and he wore a black cloak over his suit. Then there was a man with spiky red hair in a red robe with a high collar, Crone, the one that Matthew and his friends fought at the Great Sandcastle. Finally, there was the black feathered avian human, Skystorm.Seeing Skystorm in good health, M

    Confronting Bilgrae now was what he expected to see from a Dragon Emperor.Matthew was now at maximum output of his astra and all of it was condensed in his body. Bright red scales covered his entire body and he grew slightly in size. His muscles became more toned and also increased in size. A pair of horns of a darker tone of red grew out of his forehead that curved to the back of his head. Both of his eyes were glowing golden as his hair was.“Let’s finish this!” Matthew did not delay any further. He couldn’t maintain this form for long so he must finish the fight quickly.Matthew dashed toward Bilgrae who was ready for Matthew. Their fists clashed again and this time, not only was Bilgrae pushed back, he felt pain in his knuckles. Matthew was much stronger than before and far faster too. Utilising his speed, Matthew went for another punch to Bilgrae’s gut.“Oof!” Bilgrae got the air knocked out of him with the first hit.Matthew followed up with a barrage of punches. Bilgrae truly

    After being blown away by Skystorm’s wind, Matthew regained his footing and was met with the big lizardman, Bilgrae Scarlett. Bilgrae had a smirk on his face. Matthew stood up and faced Bilgrae, but his eyes were not on him. Matthew’s eyes fell on Falynx in the far distance.“Are you still concerned about that monster?” Bilgrae asked with his deep voice.Matthew looked at Bilgrae now. “It’s hard to know which one is the monster here.”“Heh, you’re right. All of us are monsters deep inside. It just takes one misstep to turn a person into one. You’ve been there too.”“No I haven’t.”“Maybe not to you. But the whole world saw you as one. Now that monster suddenly turned into an emperor and they suddenly glorified you, while some still hate you of course.”“Hmph.” Matthew huffed.“You’re angry with me, I understand. I purposely did not kill that beast. Out of compassion.”“Don’t lie. You Scarletts don’t know what that means.”Bilgrae wasn’t smiling anymore. “You don’t know how merciful fa

    Akame and Skystorm were separated from Matthew and Bilgrae. Akame stood up after being blown away by the powerful gust of wind created by Skystorm. Their eyes met. Both of their irises were bright red and gazed deeply.“I will be your foe, Red Cardinal.” Skystorm said.“What relic will you take? What will you use it for?” Akame asked.“Straight to the questions huh… That’s not any of your business. Why would you care what we take anyway if you’ll die?”“To evaluate whether it’s worth fighting for or not.”“Hmm, a smart choice. If you don't want to fight, then I shant confront you. Sadly, it seems that Lord Dragunov disagrees with you. If he is in the way, then we must remove him. I don’t think that leaves you an option now.”Backing out from this would mean that Matthew will be fighting two people. If they weren’t among the Scarlett Army’s strongest, it probably wouldn’t be hard for him to deal with alone. Both of their foes were really strong and Akame had no expectation of defeating

    After their encounter with Falynx, they reached an agreement to conduct an investigation as they intended. Falynx had flown back to the surface on its own. Matthew and Akame headed to the temple and arrived at the front door.For some reason, even though they were underground, it was as clear as day down here. It was not dark and not too bright either, like a cloudy day.There were stairs that led to the door and the walls in the area were already partially destroyed. Some of the stairs were also gone. The giant door was made of stone and seemed to be intact with little cracks around the hinges.Matthew pushed one of the doors open. It was surprisingly heavy so Matthew had to lean into it to move it. Akame went inside first and inspected the place. There was a stage and a podium carved out of stone at the end of the great hall. A mural was carved out of the wall behind the stage depicting a supposed god holding the sun in his hands.Matthew left the door open and joined Akame to look

    In the middle of the desert, there were two figures running across the sands. Clouds of sand were left behind in their quick steps. The cloak provided by the minister was really working. No sand was sticking onto them.“We’re getting close.” Matthew informed Akame.Almost two hours have passed since they left the city. Many monsters came their way but they were easily dealt with. It caused a little delay but not enough to affect their momentum. Falynx’s presence was still about 10 kilometres away.“Be ready for battle.” Akame said.“Remember though, don’t kill it.” Matthew reminded her.A few minutes later, a gigantic figure could be seen flying in the sky. The creature had the body of a snake, the head of a crocodile and six pairs of batwings. Its yellow eyes with black vertical slits looked down at the incoming people below.Falynx bowed its head and began descending. Matthew and Akame saw this as an engagement in battle. Matthew called out the Dragoknight to his arms and increased

    The sun was already high up in the sky in the Capital City of Kubalt. The weather was hot and dry as usual in San Coro. The street around this particular area was not that busy since it was right in front of the Palace of Al-Jauhara. One would occasionally see knights patrolling the area. Akame was waiting under the intense heat of the sun. She had covered herself in a large black cloth to protect herself from the heat. The guards out here only wore light armour compared to the ones inside, probably because their armour would be too hot to wear outside. Not too long after, she finally saw the one she was waiting for. Matthew was jogging toward her. He wore his long sleeved red hooded jacket and an orange shirt under it and a pair of black pants. He also had his usual travelling backpack with him. “Phew, sorry, did you wait long?” “Not too long. Did you not use a teleportation scroll?” Akame asked. “I did, but the closest one was to Yanbue City. Neither Platinum nor Rose were famil

    “What brings you here, Akame?” Matthew asked.Just a few moments ago, Akame had arrived in front of Platinum’s cave. Someone like who was a Coloured Hunter, passing through the Blackwood Forest and up the cold mountain was not a problem. Or not.Akame was hugging herself to keep warm but it was not helping at all. “Achoo! C-can we talk somewhere warmer?”“Oh, come on in.” Matthew invited her inside.Akame went in and they both made their way to the living room. Matthew didn't think that it was alright to bring her to the others directly. The living room had a fire to keep them warm, so here was enough.“Ah~” Akame warmed herself up by the fire and put her hands out.“So, what are you doing here without equipment to survive on a mountain? Certainly you didn’t come to interview us?” Matthew asked.“Queen Cleopatra sent me. We will investigate the ruin she mentioned together.” Akame said with the same emotionless voice as usual.“Cleopatra? Well, I was gonna head there in a few days anyw

    Matthew and Rose arrived at the foot of the mountain just by the Blackwood Forest where they dropped off of the carriage while Guinevere headed back to her palace. It was already very late in the afternoon when they got to the forest. Matthew carried Rose's luggage in hands while he also wore his backpack."I can carry my own stuff." Rose said."No, I will carry them for you. Anyway, are you sure you'll be fine?""My magic resistance is quite high. I also know how to disperse mana if it does accumulate inside me. How long exactly is it going to take to get up there again?" Rose looked up at the ledge near the mountain peak where Platinum's abode was."Well, usually only a few hours if you're moving at my usual speed. If we're walking though, a few days at least." Matthew said."But we're not walking, right?" Rose asked."Nope." As Matthew replied, a shadow flew past over them.A jade green dragon circled them as she descended to the ground nearby. Upon landing, the dragon folded its w
