"The real battle starts now," Kriff growled.

Kriff's body radiated an ominous atmosphere. This ability was a type of aura modification.

Kriff had changed his common, unimpressive blue aura into a ghastly aura, boosting his power and speed while also bestowing himself with a unique characteristic—the ghost attribute, often known as the shadow attribute.

For a brief minute, I was speechless.

Kriff was undoubtedly looking amazing and menacing at the time. Given the atmosphere of grey that was all around him, he appeared to be a knight who had emerged from a grave.

'Can you tell me what grade the shadow element is?'

[The shadow element is a Grade IV Element.]

My eyes widened when I heard the system's response. This shadow element or property that Kriff was employing was a Grade IV element, which was equivalent to my Death Element.

How astounding is that?

When Kriff was a B-rank, he was unbeatable against anyone of his rank as long as he had this skill, which gave him the ability to tempor

    "You are so frail, yet so full of pride... Who do you believe you are?""I… It's all my fault." Kriff expressed regret.He was unable to rebut anything said.Being weak in this world is a mistake in and of itself.The knights in their immediate vicinity shamefully bowed their heads. They had no idea that a knight from a little, barren city would defeat their captain with such a crushing defeat.They were knights who originated in Vermillion City, one of the largest trading centres in the empire despite the fact that it was just a commercial centre and not a military one.Since they were from Vermillion City, where the people had previously respected and honoured them, they anticipated a similar response from Ice Demon City.But that rapidly went wrong.The baron of this city seems to be unconcerned with their reputation. He was also not worried about developing a negative relationship with Count Rakan of Vermillion City.Now that Baron Ethan had won the wager, his word was law.I app

    The masters of ship warfare, the sea bandits, invariably vanquished the knights schooled in several prestigious academies.However, according to sources, Gislain had particularly invented a technique for sea combat and designed an entirely new ship design.Wasn't this fantastic news?Duke Ifrit's luck was so exceptional that Ladia found it hard to believe.The son he adopted from elsewhere had such talent, yet his own son was a violent brat with spoilt habits.Gislain must be around 28 years old, she reasoned, and wouldn't he make the ideal husband for her younger sister?Perhaps Duke Ifrit would even propose to her as his son's marriage instead, Ladia giggled at the idea.That would be disastrous, as Ladia had no intention of marrying.Also complimentary of Gislain was Saintess Rose, who was standing nearby. In her memory, this person had genuine affection for the empire. She was aware from her recollections that Gislain fought valiantly against the Second Prince and the demons.Howe

    "Ahem." Duke Deon made the decision to withdraw his aura at last.The fact that two dukes of the empire were openly fighting like children did not present a favourable impression to the various nobles."At least you are aware of your position." Duke Kraus mumbled and took a seat as well.Afterwards, everyone in the hallway was able to breathe normally once more. They quickly straightened their coats and outfits and wiped the perspiration from their faces.Duke Kraus looked around the hall, catching a glimpse of the nobility conversing in the Cathedral. Although they all had happy expressions on their faces, he understood that those smiles were masks protecting their inner demons.A vein on his face suddenly bulged as he suddenly remembered the face of a young boy.Somehow, that young man managed to cast a spell on his daughter! Duke Kraus would never think that his only daughter would develop feelings for any man.Particularly when the man is incompetent—okay, actually, he is extremel

    "Can the Dukes do it?" Ladia inquired slowly.For a brief while, the two dukes were deafeningly silent.It was a difficult choice."I am aware that throughout the harvest season, starvation has affected all domains. The gemstones from the mines would be required to make up for that loss.""I aimed for a monthly gemstone production of 100,000. And in order to do that, we would need to mine even more and look for new mines. Although there are many untapped mines in the empire, I am aware that sending people to explore them would leave fewer workers for the farms. Duke Deon and Duke Kraus, however—we require those weapons for the empire.”It was obvious to everyone in the room that the Beast Kingdom would soon attack the Empire in full force. Furthermore, the threat posed by the demons was ever-present.If they fail in battle, their lands will be lost. Reluctantly, the two dukes had no other option but to comply. The same fate awaited the absent dukes who missed this crucial meeting."Tw

    "Advisor Faru, the general demands your presence," came the urgent summons. Faru's brow furrowed, weariness etched across his face as he wearily rose from his seat. He, the mastermind behind the audacious assault on Ice Demon City, had meticulously calculated every detail. With no defences to speak of and the nearest city miles away, victory seemed assured. Yet, the initial gambit had faltered. The failure of the scouting mission had never even registered on his radar. Amidst all the meticulous planning, he had never fathomed that the reconnaissance part could go awry. After the initial failure, Faru has been continuously urging the general to prevent the main army from moving forward towards Ice Demon City.

    Commander Kriff found himself utterly perplexed by the recent turn of events. After his defeat at the hands of the youthful baron, the entire army's authority was unexpectedly bestowed upon this noble upstart.Kriff had anticipated a major uproar, especially when the baron's first command was for the soldiers to assist in the construction of houses. The idea of knights engaging in manual labour was nothing short of a comical spectacle, one that would surely be the talk of the century among the nobility.Yet, to his astonishment, the situation was resolved with surprising ease. It turned out that the baron had deep pockets, and he nonchalantly announced that each knight would be generously compensated with fifty silver coins for their efforts in the construction work.Su

    I gazed upon the masterpiece that Wise had crafted, a battlefield like no other.Stretching before me were rows upon rows of trenches, meticulously dug to a depth of at least eight feet.Thankfully, the unforgiving terrain surrounding Ice Demon City stood firm, refusing to crumble under our feet.Oh, if only we were facing mere humans instead of the savage beastmen, a six-foot trench would have sufficed.But Wise, ever the strategist, had foreseen the need for extra protection.The wooden walls, standing tall and proud, not only served as our first line of defense but also held the potential for a fierce counterattack.Sometimes I ponder the futility of my current endeavors, questioning why I bother engaging in these trivial tasks when I possess the power to obliterate the entire army with a mere flick of my wrist.But alas, not too long ago, my motivations were driven solely by the desire to remain inconspicuous, to fly under the radar.However, a newfound purpose has emerged, illumi

    "General! This forest... it is cursed! We must flee from here with utmost haste!"Riben's frown deepened. Though he was unfamiliar with the scout's name, he knew that he was a vital member of the reconnaissance team."What do you mean?" Riben inquired, his voice laced with a mix of skepticism and concern.The scout took a moment to catch his breath before responding, his words carrying the weight of undeniable truth."The forest is cursed!"The scout deftly retrieved a petite brown snake from his bag, a creature that had been tamed by the cunning Beast Empire for the sole purpose of gathering vital intelligence."By the gods, one of my snakes has perished!" the scout exclaimed, his voice tinged with disbelief. "There are no visible wounds, no signs of attack. It simply met its demise without any warning!"General Riben's gaze fixated on the lifeless snake, his mind delving into the depths of his beastly aura, akin to how mages would utilize their mana to scrutinize living beings.Over

"You shall be the commander of the Vanguard Army!"With a snap of her fingers, the Princess bestowed an insignia upon Ryle's shoulder, its glow of light like a beacon of hope in the face of the looming threat of the Beast Kingdom."I will crush those beastmen for you, Your Highness!" Ryle said, his voice filled with determination and resolve.The Princess smiled, her eyes filled with pride and hope. "We have faith in you, Ryle," she said.

  • Demon's Evolution   The Chosen Commanders

    The Dwarven Kingdom, a land renowned for its glittering wealth, held its breath. The Brightwing Empire’s meager offer, a desperate plea for aid, was all they had to entice the notoriously hard-drinking mercenaries. Even if their weapons were outdated, their reputation for unmatched effectiveness in battle preceded them. Surely, that would be enough.“Your Majesty,” a guard murmured, his voice barely a tremor in the air. “They have arrived.”Princess Ladia, lost in a labyrinth of thought, startled slightly. She had wrestled with the decision for what felt like an eternity, but finally, a solution had emerged. All that remained was to face them, to meet their gaze and offer her hand in this desperate alliance.Viscount Lamiel, a man whose arrogance was only surpassed by his thirst for gold, strode into the royal garden, flanked by a legion of equally boisterous mercenaries. Princess Ladia recognized most of them – the nobles summoned by the crown, their faces etched with a mixture of g

    The scene unfolded with brutal efficiency. Several soldiers, their faces grim and resolute, descended upon Drew and the other soldier, their movements swift and decisive. There was no struggle, no desperate pleas for mercy. They walked away with heads bowed, accepting their fate with a stoic silence that spoke volumes of their resignation.Ryle, his expression a mixture of weariness and amusement, ran a hand through his hair, a sigh escaping his lips. "What a waste of a perfectly good sleep," he muttered, his voice laced with a hint of exasperation. "Young men like myself need our rest, yet everyone seems determined to disrupt my slumber over such trivial matters."His gaze shifted to me, and a playful smile curved his lips. "Allow me to introduce myself," he said, extending a hand towards me. "Ryle Green, third son of Count Green, and as you might be able to tell, the future commander of this very army." He spoke with an air of unwavering confidence, his words carrying the weight of

    Two soldiers from a rival camp, their boots crunching on the gravel path, happened upon the conversation. One soldier, his face contorting with barely suppressed mirth, clamped a hand over his mouth, desperately trying to stifle a chuckle. His companion, sensing the impending eruption, jabbed him in the ribs with an elbow, a silent plea for decorum. But the laughter, like a trapped spring, was too powerful to contain. Tears welled in the soldier's eyes, threatening to spill over as his shoulders shook with silent mirth. Finally, with a strangled cry, he burst into a full-blown guffaw. "Hahahaha! If it's the Young Master leading us! Hahaha! We'll be able to… Pft! Hahaha!"The sound of his uncontrolled laughter echoed through the camp, drawing curious glances from nearby soldiers. Gaston, his face a mask of confusion and irritation, turned to the source of the amusement. "Excuse me, but what's so funny?" he demanded, his voice laced with displeasure.The soldier, still gasping for br

    The unyielding army of the Ice Demon City had been journeying for a considerable number of weeks, traversing a multitude of cities and towns along the way. During our sojourns, we would occasionally restock our supplies, find respite in taverns, and often in the great outdoors, before resuming our arduous trek.Given the unfortunate circumstances, we were informed that the Ice Demon City was the most distant of all cities from the capital. This reality meant that we were among the last to receive the urgent message, compelling us to join the ranks of the other nobles and their armies in the capital.It was in the fourth week of our relentless march that we finally arrived in the grand and magnificent Capital city. The journey had been long and arduous, but our determination never wavered, as we knew our presence was required in these critical times. I had already surmised that the majority of the other nobles and their forces would have already amassed in the capital, readying themse

    As the first light of dawn broke through the windows of the guest house, Miron found himself indulging in a breakfast that was nothing short of exquisite. The flavours were so delightful that he couldn't help but admit to himself that it had been a long time since he had enjoyed a meal as delicious as this one.Before long, Miron was summoned by the lord of the Ice Demon City. With a gracious wave of his hand, the lord invited Miron to take a seat on the soft and ornate sofa in the grand hall. Miron, still feeling a bit tense and on edge, quickly obliged and sat down.Despite the gravity of the situation and the impending battle that lay ahead, the lord of the Ice Demon City seemed completely at ease. He sat on his throne, casually eating his food and even humming a tune that was both strange and captivating. Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, Miron finally mustered up the courage to ask, "My lord, how can you remain so calm and untroubled? Surely you must feel some fear or

    "You won't find Baron Ethan in the mansion," Zikk stated, his hand resting lightly on Miron's shoulder. "He should be in the Endless Forest, training his soldiers."The gesture, though seemingly warm and reassuring, sent a chill down Miron's spine. He sensed a veiled warning in Zikk's words, a subtle reminder of the stakes involved. This was no ordinary mission; it was a delicate dance, a test of Miron's competence and discretion."I am busy," Zikk continued, his tone shifting to one of finality. "I'll get going."Miron, still reeling from the weight of Zikk's revelation, blurted out, "Sir, you're working in this city?" The thought that the Grand Knight, a legendary warrior, would be toiling away in the mundane tasks of everyday life seemed utterly incongruous.Zikk chuckled, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Of course, I need to feed myself, right?" He winked, a playful glint in his gaze. "See you around."With that, Zikk turned and strode away, disappearing into the labyrinthine all

    The whispers and hearsay suggesting that Ethan Slayer was the individual responsible for instigating a full-scale conflict between the formidable Beast Kingdom and the vast Empire were, in the opinion of Miron, nothing more than baseless conjecture. He was firmly convinced that these rumors were merely the result of devious political machinations being orchestrated by a select group of nobles within the Empire, who were cunningly manipulating the situation to their own advantage.Such tales of intrigue and deception were likely to be believed only by the most gullible of commoners and the lowest-ranking of nobles, who were easily swayed by sensationalist stories and exaggerated claims.Furthermore, there was another outlandish rumor circulating, which held that Ethan Slayer had single-handedly defeated an entire legion of the Beast Kingdom's most formidable warriors, and had compelled a daunting elite force of ten thousand beastmen to retreat in disgrace, with their tails tucked meek

    Miron approached the city with a sense of trepidation, expecting the usual lax security measures that were common in many of the smaller territories. However, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the checkpoint at the gate was both rigid and strict, a testament to the city's strong defenses.As he entered the city, he was immediately struck by the vibrant atmosphere that pervaded the streets. The residents of Ice Demon City went about their daily lives with genuine smiles on their faces, as though the war that was raging in the north was of little concern to them. Children played and laughed on the streets, while adults busied themselves with their work.Miron's eyes widened in astonishment as he realized that the roads within the city were all paved, a luxury that was rarely found in such remote territories. He shook his head in disbelief, wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him."I must be seeing things," he muttered to himself, unable to comprehend the level of develop
