Aegeus twirled Aegis around before allowing the strange weapon to escape his grip. Aegis hummed and buzzed as it slowly circled it's master."Let's go," Abe commanded the others, and they sprang into action. Twenty more foreigners had entered their planet. Twenty more thieves had invaded their land, and they were unwilling to allow them to have their way. *Boom*With a powerful burst the Silver Wolves - nay, Hidden Cloak - sprang into action. Their elusive figures were akin to the deadly streams of war and chaos, and their cold eyes indicated that their will to protect their people had long suppressed any fearful thoughts.Aegeus was the last to move. Unlike the others he moved as though he was taking a leisurely stroll. His steps were light yet powerful; for Zandor trembled with his strides. He was the vanguard; he was the protector of the team. The others could fight freely because he was there to watch their backs. As long as he was around, they would not be moved!The twenty intr
20 came!18 remained!Silence filled the battlefield for a short while as the hearts of the intruders comprehended what had just happened. They had lost two peak Nobles! They had lost men who were as strong as themselves. And those men had fallen easily! They were vanquished like bugs being squished. They were treated as pests being disposed off. The hearts of those who remained chilled at the thought of their current situation - all but the three who worshipped the True Goddess."The girl with the spear; we invite you to join the True Goddess. With your talents and your beauty it wouldn't be long before you become a mighty warrior underneath the banner of our liege. When you come you will experience what the outside world is truly like."One of the ladies facing Abe ignored the young Prince and offered an invitation to Selina. Her eyes were filled with pride, and she spoke with certainty. Her use of the word 'when' reflected just how confident she was that Selina would not reject her
"What are you looking at?" Aegeus asked an intruder who had lost his bearings after seeing another taken down so easily. His figure flashed before the man's eyes and with the swiftness of Hermes, he decapitated the unfortunate bloke with nothing but his nails.*Thud*"Now there are only 16," Aegeus mumbled before remembering that he had broken the bones of two intruders and hadn't finished them off."Wheeeew weee" Aegeus whistled loudly, and Aegis heeded his call. The Soul Weapon rushed out, and soon the miserable screams of two men were heard, causing the lights in the hearts of the remaining 14 to grow dim.20 came; 14 remained!In less than a minute, 6 of them had been killed. Many swallowed their spittle with eyes that reflected exactly how they felt. This was fear! The land they thought was easy to pick on was slowly turning out to be their graveyard!"You should pay attention to me," Jake 'kindly' reminded an absentminded foreigner before masterfully hacking the man's body into
*Cling**Bang**Boom**Klang*The forest floor was fractured and bruised all over. Several trees had been felled - not by the work of nature but by forces that suckled at nature's generous breasts - and many lives had been lost. The ground was bloodied and scattered with several broken weapons. Spears, swords, axes, staffs and even strange weapons like lamps and slings decorated the forest floor grotesquely. Many headless bodies littered the ground, allowing the brave scavengers who dared encroach upon this battlefield a feast of brains and eyes."Guh" Letting out a small gurgle, another was added to the list of the dead. As the man fell, the sounds of battle ceased, leaving the survivors panting heavily. "When is the next group coming in? How far away are they?" Selina asked as she wiped the sweat off her brow. Her eyes were filled with exhaustion, and her soaked clothes told that she was at her limit; and this was no surprise for she and the others had been battling for over three
An oppressive air hung over the forest as the eyes of the Nobles identified the many corpses and broken weapons that covered the ground. As far as their eyes could see, there were the bodies of the deceased. Humans and members of other races had been laid to rest in the Promised Land, never to see the light of the sun again. Even worse was that these precious bodies were being fed on by mere winged scavengers. An intruder angrily picked up a stone and flung it at a vulture. Before the creature was aware of what was happening there was a hole in its head. It fell down dead without even knowing that it had died!"Stop taking your anger out on a bird," One of the intruders tapped the furious man to calm him down. They wore the same uniform, suggesting that they were from the same company. This person looked to have a stable head over his shoulders; for his eyes had been scanning the battlefield with great caution since his arrival. "All the bodies here belong to Divine Servants. Not one
The expressions of the intruders changed when they saw the slender rod ballooning. Under their stunned gazes the formerly child-friendly stick became the size of a large pillar with a length of 50 meters!Aegeus's eyes flashed brightly underneath his mask, and he tugged on Aegis. *Crook*The large Soul Weapon groaned slightly as Aegeus pulled it up like it weighed nothing. With his overwhelming strength he pulled Aegis easily as though it weighed similarly to a thin slice of paper. Aegeus casually placed Aegis next to him, letting the Soul Weapon lie vertically.*Boom* The earth shook when Aegis kissed the ground. But it wasn't the only thing that trembled. Along with the shaking of the earth was the trembling of the hearts of those who stood opposite Aegeus."I don't think putting some distance between us was the right idea," one of the men swallowed nervously and said. His words echoed the thoughts in everyone's mind, and the one who made the prior suggestion could feel several ga
Aegeus and his many clones dived straight into action. Like Olympic athletes starved of competition they were eager to impress. Each of them held a replica of Aegis, and none of them was weak. The clones numbered 30 in all, much more than the total number of intruders left. So the prior situation was reversed in an instant. Now it was the intruders who were short on numbers!*Boom*A deafening sound rang out as an intruder was besieged by three Aegeus clones and clobbered to death. He had barely recovered from the surprise when the clones targeted him.He wasn't the only one to face such an end. In less than a minute several Nobles were killed, and in a few more seconds even more joined the death list. Aegeus looked on nonchalantly; he didn't move a muscle. He left the dirty work to the clones. Soon there was only one person left. The eyes of the last survivor were filled with tears as snot run down his nose. Aegeus looked on in disgust, offended that such a weak willed person was a
Aegeus's eyes were red with fury. His expression was full of pain and reluctance. When had he been forced into such a state before? Since he was little he was taught to bow to no one - with the exception only being those who earned his respect. He was raised to be upright and noble, and to do what was right. However, he lost his way along the line and became an arrogant twat who knew nothing but stepping on the pride of others. Then he met his master; he met Mane. Mane was unlike the others Aegeus had bullied. The difference between the young Supreme and the others was simple: he was strong! That was all there was to it! Yes, Mane was intelligent. Yes, the young Supreme was able to conjure schemes and knit plots that were not reflective of his congenital age. However, that was not what pushed Mane to the other side of the wall. There were many smart people in the world. There were several intelligent people in Zandor. Surely there were some who were better gifted than the young Supre
