Tamer Of Cosmic Beasts Chapter 43
Advertisement
The armies were getting closer and closer each second, Akash and Red Mamba were already on the mountains. Whereas Black Dragon and One-Eyed Wolf were on the fields below.
The wolf looked behind while running, seeing his army was a little bit hesitant even though they outnumbered their enemy. The wolf's army was full of various beasts, weaker and stronger. On the flip side, 3/5ths of Black Dragon's army was made up of dragons, among the strongest bloodlines.
The dragons side was on high morale, but the wolf army's lantern of boldness was getting dimmer and dimmer as they were getting closer. The wolf howled.
~AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH~
Everyone behind him looked at the wolf, wondering if that was a war cry. Wolf thought of a way to raise the morale and spoke.
"Brothers and sisters, we have been suffering from these danmed dragons for far too long! Our loved ones were killed by these scoundrels over paltry territorial squabbles. Before my mother was killed along with my other family, she told me 'Always remember, remember why we died'.
Our fallen comrades, they did not wish for monuments, poems, songs of valor or any other tribute of such a kind! Their wish was plain, just remember that they lived and the cause of their death!
That was their hope! Should any free soul come across this land in the countless centuries yet to be, may all our voices whisper to you, unhindered by time! May these lands and the marks left by our ancestors and ourselves show that we lived, that we lived here to our very fullest, unrelenting in our conviction!
After I witnessed the countless deaths of my brothers and sisters, her words rang even truer. My fellow brethren, after today's battle. word will spread throughout all the free lands that 30 000 of us stood here, fought here and gave those damned dragons more than they could ever withstand! We will butcher these cursed blights on these free lands and prove that we, of the independent lands, belong here!

Now, here on this grassy patch of vale, we will finally purge ourselves of Black Dragon and his cursed minions! We shall not kneel nor retreat instead we shall only advance and strike fear in their fragile hearts! We outnumber them 3 to 1, so let's be sure to give back them all a good taste of the suffering they have inflicted upon us tenfold and bring in a new age free of these blasted scourges!"
As the dragons came closer, the wolf looked back at his army once more and declared.
"Give thanks to our forefathers."
After which he looked back to the front and yelled.
"To victory!"
All the beast cried together
"TO VICTORY"
The hesitant, worried beasts turned into high-spirited and vicious martyrs hellbent on victory. The war speech of the wolf had rekindled the flames in their hearts, spurring them to action. They all marched and cried out themselves.
~RAAWWWWWWRR~
~MOOONNHHHHH~
~KIRIYAAAAAHHH~
~SCREEEEEETCCH~
And thus, the two armies clashed, immediately unleashing a cacophony of sounds.
~BANG, GALOP, CRASH, CRACK~
The impact of the clash so overwhelming that bodies and body parts started to fly through the battlefield, propelled by their respective enemies.
Undisturbed, a dragon of orange color with black feet stood before unleashing its fiery breath upon its charging enemy whilst roaring. The flame scorched many, but something soon blocked the fire, an icy blue rhino, running with a thick pointy horn.
The dragon bared its claws and briefly glowed before growing triple the size and immediately charging towards the rhino. The latter stomped the ground, turning it to ice. The dragon tried to remain stable and even attempted to fly but it was too late.
The rhino slid its feet on the ice and, with a tilt of its big head, rammed its thick horn into the body of the dragon, piercing it. Soon after, the body turned into ice as well before breaking into pieces.

After the rhino had taken care of the dragon, it was confronted by a demon, a war loving species of beasts that possessed humanoid bodies.
It gripped the horn of the rhinoceros and lifted it in the air, however, is it did this, the demon's hands started to freeze. Despite this, it slammed the rhino to the ground before a long lightning sword formed in its hands.
Immediately after, the demon jumped on its adversary's back and stabbed the blade, piercing all the way through the body and exiting through the other side.
The wolf was one of the strongest, he fought and left bloodied and battered corpses behind everywhere in his wake. He jumped, expanded his wings and bit the wyvern flying above the army.
A light-yellow dragon saw that and flew to attack the wolf. Before he could though, a griffin reached him first as it rose from the ground, its wings metallic and sharp. Stealthily, it attacked the dragon and with a swipe of its claws, the dragon was decapitated.
As the battle raged on, Akash overlooked it all, even though his people were about to fight too but he was not worried about them.
It was a marvelous fight. Untamed beasts vs untamed beasts, all of them ferociously killing each other. One side had quality while the other had quantity, an even match. Akash had heard the words of the wolf when he had sent the moose to help them.
The moose currently was on its way to the mountain, jumping across multiple obstacles and overtaking many of the other, slower beasts in its way. Akash checked its profile.
[Species: Shine Moose (Beast)
Realm: 3rd Moon, Star General
Bloodline: Star King nobility rank
Learnt Laws: Fire Law, Light Law
Inborn Laws: Forest Law (Awakened)
Akash eyes widened.
"I must tame them for my army, these beasts are too precious."
Akash jumped down and landed before the 80-meter-tall moose, halting its climb.
"Your men are dying there, what are you doing here?"
Moose asked harshly.
"They will not die, go back to that wolf and help your own side."
"Nonsense, I was sent here to protect you and I will not disobey One-Eyed Wolf's order."
The moose was leading 10,000 beasts. Akash retorted.
"Didn't you understand what I said? Go back, your friends need you more!"
Moose looked back at the battlefield and explained.
"I want to go there as well, but... I cannot…"
Akash replied.
"Then take only 1000 beasts, send the remainder to them."
Moose was startled.
"You are taking that snake too lightly. Do you even know who he is?"
Akash smiled.
"I don't and I don't need to know him, he will die here."
Moose was shocked again, he wondered whether these little men were truly that powerful or just ignorant.
Akash spoke again.
"Focus on your own battle, not ours."
Moose gave an angry glare.
"Die, if you want to."
Moose turned back and ordered his troops.
"Everyone, go and help Lord Wolf. I will take care of things here."
A beast replied.
"But sir, we were ordered to..."
"Just do as I say, we don't have much time. Hurry up, I will take the responsibility."
The beast replied.
"As you order, sir."
The beasts turned their direction back to the battlefield. Moose looked back at Akash and spoke.
"I was ordered to help you, so I won't go back unless I complete my order or die trying."
Author's Note: (When I use "It" or "they" for a beast then that means either I don't want to reveal it's gender or it's an unimportant character. Thankyou everyone for your support and love)

Dungeon's Path
The only places I have posted the story and allow it to exist are on RoyalRoad, Scribblehub, and my Patreon. So the world ended. Whoopsie? We didn’t even see it coming. Quite literally as it came at us faster than the speed of light. Don’t worry though, it got better. Also, I am not joking about the world ending. Most people say that and mean humans are inconvenienced for some reason. Nope, all matter disintegrated at the atomic scale there for a few moments. Apparently the local universe wasn’t actually stable? Don’t ask me to go into too much detail. It would require both of us to have a few more college degrees than sense, and I at least lack them (both the degrees and the sense). Anyway, the energy/matter/wibbly wobbly strings were at a local minimum and not the universal minimum. Basically, what we took for sea level was actually a nice little mountain lake and when the dam busted so did, well, everything. Now here is where things go a bit off track with what normal meant before. You see magic is real, qi is real, gods are real. Not on old Earth mind you but souls pay little attention to time and space so we dreamed of it. In fact, the closer the shift in reality got to Earth, the closer our dreams got to the new reality. This is basically me tip toeing around the fact that it was a ‘System Apocalypse’. Reality became a video game, I became a dungeon, and this is my story. Doyle Huxley just wanted a normal life but as the above might clue you in on that just isn’t in the cards. He gets to experience a “Path Based System Apocalypse” and some early paths he takes, both literally and figuratively, lead to him becoming a dungeon. The aim is to release chapters once a week on Friday. Cursing will be avoided and no naughty adult action will take place in the story.

Orivar: Deep Black
Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called back into service after a gifted scientist loses everything. Is she serving her country? Or is she just a pawn in a great game? Orivar is a web novel series set in the distant future. Humanity has all but mastered the exotic material known as omnium, the most common of which is called orivar: the original variety.

A novel variety of omnium–one with the potential of sending Civilized Space crashing down–is stolen from a research station just beyond the Federation border. Atara Korrell, a retired Navy captain, is called to command the fastest starship ever made to chase the thieves and retrieve the stolen sample. Meanwhile, enemies both near and far vie for the omnium sample and the advanced technology powering her ship. Can Atara remain loyal in the face of seeming betrayal?(Cover art by Loputon https://www.deviantart.com/loputon)

Ghostified City
‘Ghostified City’ is a post-dystopian sci-fi tale, set in a fading world that might be a future version of ours, running out on autopilot into oblivion. Adaman Yimmand is a simple robofactory operator in The City who's working with robots and machines every day. He doesn’t even realise that he might not have met another actual human being in years. Everything begins when he breaks his routine for once and enters a bar where he meets Evelith. This pesky other person does not let him go after he has had his -rather terrible- beer, because according to her actual humans are much rarer than he’s aware of. And from then on ‘the genie is out of the bottle and won’t get back in’, to use her words: Adaman meets more people, and gradually he has no choice but to accept that the reality of The City is not what he always thought it was, and to face the darkness of a fading humanity on the brink of self-inflicted extinction.Is there any hope left for him, and for his species? I have selected 'sexual content' and 'traumatising content' to be on the safe side, because there is a stripclub-like venue in the background of the story, and an almost-extinct humanity that has institutionalised suicide which might be disturbing to some. Apart from that it's not really a heavy 'adult' story.('Ghostified City' is my first long story in English as opposed to my native language Dutch, and an earlier version was published on my fiction blog 'Oranderra' until I stopped updating. This is a slightly altered version of the first series.)
