Chapter 9 - Amphitheater, Part 2
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56While being dragged Nyos replied "Well yes, but it's more fun the way I do it, don't you think?"
When they were close enough, Keil let go of Nyos's hair like it was trash and put on a terrifying expression that only Nyos could see "Present yourself the right way!"
Unable to resist Keil's intimidation, Nyos trembled slightly as his carefree stance was changed to a totally firm one.
"Yeah… Well…" With a much more terrifying look from Keil, Nyos was able to loosen his tongue and speak, although more than speaking, it was a prolonged shout "I am Nyos Minska! General of the Tower of Art and custodian of the west wing of the castle!"
"It's nice… see you?… Nyos. I hope I'm not interrupting anything "those were Zark's words; Although he himself had not realized that, his words conveyed enough calm and kindness to calm Nyos, who was in a tense situation on the part of Keil.
Although Zark's words must have shown that there was no problem, apparently Nyos did not understand the difference between kindness and the show of generosity.
"Well, if you put it like that ... actually if he was doing something ..."
If Keil had had his sword, he would pry it open in Nyos's chest, but doing such an action before his lord would have been shameful; The only thing he could do to save this situation was simply raise one of his fists (without the master of him noticing) and silently threaten Nyos with death.
Feeling his blood run cold and that possibly at any moment his heart would be ripped from his chest, Nyos corrected his words "well… no. What I mean is that you, Lord Zark, are the owner of the castle. No matter the time of your visit, it could never be called an interruption! " his last words were more like a gasp than anything else.
"Yes ... I wouldn't want to be a bother" although his voice was indecisive, Zark's body language let his subordinates know that there were no problems.
Walking calmly, he made his way to the center of the arena, observing every detail meticulously, until his gaze reached the VIP area.
The new unnatural perception of him told her, in that place there was another entity.
Keil knew his master very well, so he was able to predict his next possible action, staring at Nyos, asking "Where is Frey? He is supposed to be in this place. "
Hearing Keil's question, Nyos abruptly turned and looked at the VIP room, then yelled out loud "eehh Frey! Take hold and get off! They already found out that you are hiding! "
In the VIP lounge area, a trembling shadow could be seen.
"He was hiding himself?" Keil asked questioningly.
"Mmm ... yes ... maybe ... maybe ..." Nyos's answer didn't get to any particular point.
Glancing at the dark elf, Zark asked "why?"
"I'm not him, but he's probably very shy."
A calm and serious voice responded to Nyos' slanders. Due to the distance the VIP area was, normally a miracle would be required to hear it. But since the structure combined good design with spells to enhance the voice, that situation was not a problem for the person who was in that place.
"Eehh ... don't speak ill of me."
The three who were in the arena of the amphitheater directed their gazes directly to the place from which the voice came, and as if these were deadly weapons, the figure that was on top immediately tried to hide.
"Frey, is that you?" Keil asked calmly "Our master, Lord Zark came to this place to do some things."
Unlike the calm and deep voice heard previously, this time a sharp and broken voice was heard "Frey is not here today, come back later" it seemed that whoever was speaking was trying to fake a high-pitched voice.
Keil seemed the last straw, as someone decent that she is, such behavior was unacceptable "Frey! Your way of acting is totally indecent. "
"Indecent? ... Eh" again the deep voice was heard, but immediately the sharp voice returned "You are wrong, come back later, Frey is not there."
On the other hand, for Zark, the whole situation was impressive, but impressive in a positive way; the possibility that fictional characters created for an RPG campaign were real and had personality left him speechless.
Relaxing his posture.
If they were his subordinates, his generals, his guardians, then he must act as someone worthy of the position of his character, he must be Zark Ar Zathot.
"Frey" who spoke was Zark, his thick voice resounded in the place producing a slight echo effect. "I know my arrival was sudden, that is understandable, but my affairs are of vital importance to the castle, I must discuss a couple of things with my generals."
As a Lord, he must understand the power of using words and seeing the truth behind them. Sometimes it is necessary to tell a lie to reassure people.
Keil seemed immediately relieved to find that her master was not offended.
On the other hand, the pressure on Nyos began to slowly ease and he looked back towards the VIP room.
"You heard it. Our great master, Lord Zark came to this area to meet us. "
"Eehh ... I don't want to go down, you guys are so far away. Why don't we do it here better?"
"In that case Frey. If you're so scared of jumping, I'm going to kick you down! " It was Nyos's blunt solution to the hidden Frey's dilemma.
Resigned to defeat, Frey sighed "mmm ... Good ... But I'll go down the stairs ..."
"Are you planning to keep Lord Zark waiting? Get down at once! " Subtlety aside, Keil's words came straight to Frey.
"It's okay. It's okay."
With no other choice, a burly figure leapt down. When landing on the ground there was a heavy impact that raised dust, unlike Nyos which did not produce any noticeable effect due to its fall. Probably due to his different abilities.
After landing and the dust cloud had cleared, she began to walk relaxed; a glance at where it fell would reveal that the ground had been cracked from the impact.

If Nyos was slender, thin, with little muscle (ideal for a gymnast) and dressed in light and elegant clothing; Frey was the opposite, his body constitution was massive in comparison, he was about 2.20 meters tall and although he was not visible, his body seemed to overflow with muscles. The most noticeable thing about Frey was his equipment. On his body was jet black plate armor with silver edges at the plate joints. The helmet had a vaguely tower-like appearance; It did not have vecera, there was only a cross design in the area of its face that allowed visibility to the outside, but due to the style of the helmet (and the enchantments it had) it was impossible to see any detail of the face, allowing only to see an empty black. On his neck and waving on his back, is in an outstanding crimson cape of incredible quality, without hindering Frey's movement, the cape moved with total tranquility with light and fluid movements.

All of the featured characters possessed a combination of race, classes, and items that made them fearsome enemies, and some of them even possessed abilities that could be considered cheating (one of them was Zark and Frey himself, although there were others).In theory, each prominent character in the castle was as dangerous or even more dangerous than a player character.So only a few could rival in power.Considering the above, something occurred to him."What if it allowed you to fight each other? Something like a friendly showdown. "They both looked at each other (Nyos and Frey), the proposal was unexpected."Can we ...? - Nyos started."And I conclude the sentence Frey "... do it?"Zark nodded before replying "they can do it, as long as they avoid lethal attacks.""Oohh.""Oohh."They both seemed positively surprised by Zark's proposal, that was good, but he had to do a few things first."Befo

A total of 50 soldiers were riding through the grasslands. Each of them was muscular, vigorous, and attention-grabbing. These men could only be described with the word "robust". Even dressed in armor, one could see the muscles underneath.A man, in his 30s, with skin tanned from sun exposure, short hair, and black eyes sharp as a sword, looked at the man behind him."Marshal, we are approaching the first village.""I know Captain."Axel Halheimer, the Hero of the Sword, Wielder of the King Soul, the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom of Lothal, was traveling in the direction of the shadowy mountains of the southern region of the Duchy of Riverland.The duchy of Riverland was the duchy that was in the east of the Kingdom of Lothal, this duchy shared a border to the East with the Empire of Kaleth (with which the Kingdom of Lothal was at war).Suppressing the anxiety he felt, Axel prayed that his horse would be able to maintain a steady pace.

The Silhouette wandering over the rocky slope was barely recognizable as a man. Drooling, glassy-eyed, he muttered to himself.He walked stiff-legged like a sleepwalker, and his joints moved like a puppet.His mind was blank. He did not see anything of the landscape that surrounded him, he did not hear the wind, he did not feel the cold or the rain. He knew nothing of the people below the mountain who saw him from a distance.They locked their doors and scared their children with ghost stories in the gloomy mountains.He occasionally he remembered something. Not completely, just loose bits of the past. Sometimes he saw the beautiful smooth bones of those who had followed him, the eye sockets turned toward him with obedience and love.Sometimes he remembered how they chased him, how his eyes widened and his stiff legs tried to walk trying to escape from a dungeon.Most of the time, he knew that he had been betrayed, that everyone was in contr
World Of Darkness Chapter 14 - Magical Experiments, Part 1
In the amphitheater Zark was preparing to cast a spell on a scarecrow in a corner.In his arsenal of spells, he possessed all the spells on the Wizard, Sorcerer, and Cleric list; having at his disposal all the schools of magic (Abjuration, Divination, Conjuration, Enchantment, Evocation, Illusion, Necromancy and Transmutation), with such magical ability it would be easy to be overwhelmed by the quantity.As if that weren't enough, even when Zark used a simple low-level magic damage spell, since his class was a full caster, his spell's damage was automatically increased due to other effects that added extra damage. As a result, a simple damage spell did vastly more damage than normal.Zark looked to the side and saw that he was under the scrutiny of Frey and Nyos's curious eyes. His heart felt a little pressure, as he wasn't sure he was living up to his expectations.Zark sighed and looked back at the scarecrow.His eyes were looking at the scarecro

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Other than the scorched earth, nothing else was left standing."Ohhhhh ... so that's the power of 10d6 fire damage" Zark thought.Nyos and Frey looked puzzled and couldn't help but laugh out loud in front of Zark."... Frey, prepare a new scarecrow.""Ah. Yes, I will do it immediately! "Frey advanced holding another scarecrow, and placed it next to the ashes of the previous one.Zark walked in front of the scarecrow, looked at it, and cast a new spell."[Lightning Bolt]"A new magic circle of similar design emerged for this time of a sky blue tone, Immediately after completing the spell I did not activate it, instead it kept waiting, approximately every 6 seconds another magic circle appeared in front of the previous one.He continued to wait until a total of ten magic circles emerged. Suddenly a column of lightning was released heading vertically towards its chosen target wit

With movements fluid like water and light as wind, Nyos unsheathed his rapier and immediately proceeded to take a strange starting posture.Nyos slowly changed his posture. He bent his knees and rests his left hand on the floor of the amphitheater, at the same time that he positioned his weapon in such a way that the point was ready to perform a lunge.Nyos' stance resembled a sprinter's starting position, but he was still standing, so it was slightly similar to the starting stance used in football so it was a bit strange to see him in a match.Nyos stared at his opponent as every muscle in his body tensed.Discerning Nyos's strategy, Frey opted for a more defensive stance, drew his imposing sword of almost two meters, brought it close to his body while keeping the point in the direction of Nyos.He anchored his feet firmly to the ground, tightened his grip on the hilt of his weapon and mentally prepared himself for the dressing of his friend.

Zark was surprised at the combat that happened before his eyes.Although the combat was relatively short, it was full of action.Watching as Frey extended one of his hands to Nyos, they both approached walking; From Zark's point of view, it was surprising that Nyos was able to stand up, though without much thought, he attributed all of this to his new reality."In a world of magic and fantasy everything is possible" was his thought.As he watched as Nyos stumbled closer, another thought arose in his mind."What should I do now?"He should gather clues, although it was not clear to him how this world worked, for the moment Zark was simply an ignorant traveler. He had to exercise caution and gather information very carefully."But how should I do it… ..?"Zark's lonely words echoed through the air.When Frey and Nyos were far enough apart, Zark uttered "truly exciting… the two of them… did really well.

The Damenburg castle was a almost impregnable defensive structure. Able to support a siege for years due to the large amount of resources and supplies that were inside.If any intruder was able to infiltrate, it would meet many unpleasant surprises.

After nonchalantly walking to the front of the assailant group, Isabell looked around.“Everyone, thank you for gathering in this place for me. Oh yeah, who is your leader? Could we negotiate for a moment? "Seeing that the bandits looked at one of their own, Isabell got the information she wanted. Which meant that with the exception of this man, the others were more than cockroaches. Blood tastes better if it comes from someone strong."What ... what do you want to negotiate?"After seeing the most beautiful young woman he had ever seen, the man who seemed to be her leader finally regained his composure and advanced towards her."Ahh, forgive me. The negotiation was just a joke to get the information she wanted. Forgive me."A few men looked confused, and in search of answers they began to look at each other, but among these men ...

A carriage was speeding away from the walled city.Four strong horses pulled a carriage that was large enough to carry six passengers.The surrounding area was unexpectedly illuminated by a bright moon hanging in the sky… But still, it was foolish to travel in haste on a night like this. Putting up lights, making camp and standing guard would be a wiser decision.To say that the night was a world in which humans were not in control would not be enough. To put it more clearly, the places where the light did not reach did not belong to humans. Countless animals and monsters lurked at night, many of which could see through the darkness and attack humans.On a dangerous night like this, the passengers only felt a slight vibration as the carriage moved down the road.This small vibration was not due to the carriage having excellent suspension, but rather because the carriage wa

Donn started running toward the lower part of town. The city of Riverheim was built at the junction of two rivers, whose flow merged into a new great river which extended from Riverland to the west coast of the Kingdom of Lothal, in Sealand.Due to the conflagration of the Y-shaped river, the city of Riverheim was divided into three main sectors; to the north was the commercial sector, where most of the artisans and middle-class bourgeois population were found; To the south was the Aristocratic Sector, although it had such a pompous name, in reality there were also the headquarters of the guilds, the cathedral of the quartet and the central church in the Duchy of Riverland of the Six Gods, although separated from the public and only available to a few, was the Villa Noble that covered the entire western area of the sector; To the East the popular sector was located, ignoring the beautiful name, that was the place where the poor neighborhoods were, that being t

Azrael looked around the luxurious room. Of course, if one were to compare this room with the rooms in Damenburg Castle, then it could be said that this room did not have any charm.Sure, that wasn't something surprising since he had simply chosen the wrong object to compare. It was like comparing iron to platinum.But even if platinum was higher in price, iron had another kind of utility.Azrael focused his gaze on the corner of the room and found that the luggage was already ready and assembled. They could leave immediately if they wanted to. Since Azrael hadn't prepared it, Isabell must have made it herself when she had left the restaurant."You should have let me pack the luggage."“What are you saying Azrael? Did you want to check my underwear? You are a perverted angel "The young woman straightened her body and shook her head. She was Isabell Dra

The operation was progressing smoothly, although the details of the mission were vague, the objectives were clear; collect information about the human nation called Kingdom of Lothal.As Azrael thought about the direction of the operation, he noticed a man walking towards him."Having to leave at this time must be a difficult decision for you ..."The man who spoke to Azrael was in his forties and fifties, clean-shaven and with black hair streaked with white streaks. Perhaps due to his age and his extravagant eating habits, he had a large belly.He was tastefully dressed, his elegant clothes spoke of a man of a high position."Are you Mr. Bryman?"Azrael nodded slightly as he greeted him, but the man was quick to stop such a gesture."Ah, you don't need to be so polite."His name was Thomas Bryman and he was a fairly

"Is this how your parents met?" asked a handsome man with night-black hair and deep eyes brimming with charisma."Romantic. Don't you think? " were the words of a charming girl whose beauty would amaze anyone who witnessed her, her silver hair was combed in such a way that she had a fringe that covered her left eye; her slim body and abnormally pale skin gave him a fragile appearance."I suppose ... he has the charm of him" said the handsome man, who wore an elegant long-sleeved black raincoat over a black leather jerkin which fitted perfectly to his torso; Gala pants along with refined black shoes finished making up his outfit."Right?" were the words spoken by the charming girl, who was wearing a beautiful black dress with red details; Her dress had a prominent victory style, so on her torso she had a tight corset which highlighted her feminine curves."Moving on to a less ... peculiar topic" began

"I offer you my humble respects, Earl Drake." The man's accent was particularly strong; it was obvious that he was a foreigner. Imperial, perhaps, or farther west, Leom thought, trying to place it. "And you, fair lady," he added as he turned to Shandri, "you are lovely. A beautiful rose between these two withered thorns. "The woman's face lit up at the simple compliment. A lopsided smile crept to her lips and she bowed gracefully without taking her gaze from the man's eyes. And what eyes did she have! They were of animal intensity, loaded with nameless appetites. She was swallowed up by that gaze and willingly surrendered to the sensation.The man had power and was not averse to exploiting it. A slow predatory smile appeared on her face.Shandri felt a force draw her toward the newcomer. It was a subtle but compelling sensation. She took a step toward him."Stop staring at him, woman, he's very unse

Shandri sat on the edge of the old man's bed and wiped the blood-streaked saliva off his chin, then turned her attention to his uncle. He had known him all his life. In other times he had kissed the ground where he walked, but with age he came to understand that man was a worm. "And I suppose I have no say in the matter." Leom studied his niece for an awkward moment as she pushed her long blonde hair away from her face. She was beautiful in her own way, with fair skin and fine bones. The combination of her gave him a charming air of delicacy, although in reality the young woman she possessed the bad temper of the Drake family and she could be as devious as a weasel if she wished. “Not in the least, I'm afraid, my dear. I wish it were otherwise, but I'm not the one who made the law. By accident of birth ... you turned out to be ... female. With no male children, your father's line ends and mine begins as the oldest
