《Draconic Overlord》Chapter 11

Rin's PoV
It's been a couple of days since we arrived at the village of Gilfarm. Gilfarm is a part of the kingdom of Zura which is a kingdom ruled by humans.
We've spent most of our time ranking up as adventurers and collecting information on the area around us.
We've found out that the kingdom of Zura was actually created by Heroes hundreds of years ago. Princess wasn't surprised when she learned of this, but I think she suspected this all along. We at first suspected these heroes to have come from Niflheim, however princess doesn't seem to think so.
Seeing the princess having little interest in the matter Shimizu, Sasha and I believe that the princess has no intention of returning.
Today is a bright and sunny day. We were supposed to escort a merchant to Vaya a city known as the capital, however Shimizu and princess woke up to the smell of monsters. Sasha then appeared out of no where and followed up with a report on the situation outside. I have to say with her senses and her stealth skills she is the best at gathering information. Although my senses were way better compared to most of the other races they were no where near the level of what Shimizu or Sasha had. I am slightly envious of them but, they were specifically created to be that way. Its not like I can hold it against them for being useful to the princess. I just have to find something that I can provide to the princess. Which is easier said than done.
We all got dressed in minutes and headed downstairs. The inn was in a state of chaos with the adventurers running back and forth. Some were helping villagers evacuate whilst others were boarding up the windows.
Sasha had told us that the village was under attack from an army of monsters. The army was mostly made out of low level monsters like goblins (Rank F), hobogoblins (Rank D) and orcs (Rank C). Sasha did discover that there was Orc Warlord (Rank B) leading the army.
From the information Sasha had gathered the army was around 5000 strong. The number of adventurers in the village was around 1000. Around half of them were rank C or above, so the village was definitely going to suffer some casualties. Especially with a monster like the Orc Warlord.
Leaving the inn we headed straight towards the adventurers guild. The guild was just as chaotic. Adventurers were running around with supplies and everyone was in the talks of bolstering the villages defenses.
Of course no matter how dire the situation was there are always perverts. If the princess wasn't watching I would have torn these pigs into a thousand pieces. How dare they sully our eyes with their disgusting presences. I couldn't help but scrunch up my fists and give them all a glare filled with bloodlust.
Before I lost my cool I felt something incredibly warm and gentle on the top of my head. Looking up I could see princess caressing my hair with a gentle smile. Just from her touch I felt energized.
With all the excitement flowing through my veins I was looking forward towards our first defence raid in this world. Even though it would be against such weak pitiful creatures its always fun fighting along side princess. Ever since we left Niflheim we've been hunting the same boring monsters repeatedly. Maybe I can have some fun with the Orc Warlord. I don't know how strong Rank B is, but surely he should be able to survive a few blows.

From the information Sasha gave us the army of monsters would arrive at the village walls in under an hour. The adventurers that were idle were being organized into two groups.
The first group was part of the defence effort. This group would gain monetary rewards from the guild for defending the village.
The second group was being used to escort civilians out of the village and to safety. This group was mostly filled with the newbies. No one wanted extra casualties so no one blamed them for not fighting. If you were weak you would die simple as and I couldn't help but agree. There's no place for weaklings on the battlefield.
Following behind the princess I didn't even have to look at her beautiful face to know which choice she made. We were obviously heading towards the front lines. I can't wait to create a river of blood just the thought was getting my blood pumping.
Walking towards the outer gates we came upon a large crowd of adventurers. Each person was armed to the teeth. From huge swords to colorful staves I could see a variety of weapons.
On a platform by the gates was man in shining armor and another man who wore expensive looking clothes. I could tell instantly that the man in shining armour was the leader of the adventurers. They called him the guild master. If I had to describe him with one word I would use the word disgusting. He was over confident and his ego could reach the stars.
The man that stood next to the prideful pig wore expensive clothes. If I had to guess then it would seem like this guy was the village head. When we first entered the village Sasha gave a report explaining how he was keeping tabs on us. Princess didn't seem to care. I mean why would she this guy was just an insignificant fly. If he became hostile then just a simple wave of her hand was enough to make him disappear.
Listening to guild master waffling on about being a hero and how we have the sworn duty to protect the village was causing conflict with some of the adventurers. It was mostly the higher ranked ones that began calling him out on his bullshit. It seems like not everyone is as stupid as I first thought.
Once the speech had ended the adventurers started positioning themselves following the guild masters commands. Even if they didn't like him he was the one in charge. Archers and magicians were taking positions on the outer walk whilst the rest waited by the gates.
The plan was extremely primitive. Even the rookies in Niflheim would have done a better job. Taking a peak at princesses face I could see the disappointment in her eyes.
The guild master planned on charging head on into the monster army. He seems to have a fantasy of being a hero and charging at the enemy. I couldn't be more disappointed.
"Hime-sama should we go on ahead? Waiting for this brainless baboon is a waste of time." I couldn't help but express my dislike towards the idiots that followed the guild master blindly. When the monsters arrive at the gates these idiots were going to lower the only thing stopping the monsters entering the village. Not only that they were going to charge towards the monsters without any strategy what so ever. Did they even think of the possibility of friendly fire occurring? The magicians and archers are definitely going to end up shooting friendlies. Its not like they are all masters are their professions differentiating between targets especially at such distance is very difficult after all.

"This is ridiculous. Let's go on ahead and get this over with." It looks like princess is face-palming too.
Following the princess we walked towards the crowd. Once we reached the back end of the crowd the princess jumped effortlessly to the front.
Ignoring the guild master princess walked up the gate. Walking past everyone without paying them any attention princess went on ahead. Approaching the gates she performed an vicious side kick almost blowing the gate of its hinges. The adventurers had their eyes wide open watching princess bust open the arm outed gates effortlessly. When they saw the giant dent imprinted on the gates some of them even gasped loudly. I couldn't help but laugh at their dumbfounded faces.
Following the princess lead Sasha Shimizu and I make our way standing by her side.
"Run along home let the professionals handle this." Sasha couldn't resist making fun of the adventurers turning some of their faces bright red with anger.
Before any of them could retaliate the four of us had already walked away making our way towards the incoming army.
The grasslands around us were deadly quite. The usual monsters that resided here had all fled. In the first place they were extremely weak and getting caught in the crossfire was certain death.
Calmly following the princess we headed towards the direction that Sasha had given us. Leading us straight towards the army of 5000.
Our formation was simple. I was behind the princess. Shimizu was on the right side whilst Sasha was on the left.
The closer we got to the army the more excited I became. The ground beneath our feet was trembling from the constant battering it was getting from the thousands of footsteps.
The weather conditions couldn't be any better. The sky was crystal clear. The winds were calm and non-existent. Other than the rumbling sound of footsteps nothing else could be heard.
A few minutes later and we could finally see the enemy front lines. Thousands of blood thirsty eyes glared at our bodies. From the bloodthirsty howls one would think that these monsters hadn't been fed in years.
Seeing that the princess stopped walking we prepared for battle. Although this looked easy this was different from Niflheim. Who knows what could happen.
"Rin I'll create an opening for you. You have my permission to go berzerk." With that said the princess cut her palm and placed it on top of my mouth.
How lucky was I? Being able to feed from the princess twice in such a short time.
Knowing that the princesses palm would heal up in seconds I began to suck as much blood as I could.
Everytime I swallowed the sweet addicting liquid I saw myself losing more and more control. My fangs grew longer, my eyes became clearer than ever. My nose became increasingly sensitive. I could smell the blood circulating inside the bodies of all those monsters.
"fufufu look at Rin-chan she looks like a baby sucking her mother's teet." Turning my attention towards Sasha I could hear a trace of jealousy from her voice as she playfully mocked me. I wanted to laugh at her for being jealous but instead I decided to make her even more jealous. Holding the princesses hand I began licking the blood on her fingers. Making sure I kept eye contact with Sasha. I made sure she could see my smug smile. Seeing her own smile falter I delivered the final blow by sucking the princesses fingers like a lollipop.
Seeing Sasha's smug smile disappear made me giggle out loud.
"You... You" Sasha sounded like a broken record. I wanted to tease her more, however the aura around princess suddenly changed.
Pinning my attention back towards the princess I saw her other arm was positioned straight up towards the vast blue sky. Her fingers were joined together and it looked like she was going to chop the world in half.
The silent winds began to pick up and swirl around princesses arm. In an instant the aura on the battlefield changed. The monsters stopped howling like dogs and got ready for battle. Too bad they'll never know what hit them.
"Sasha Rin on the battlefield never lose concentration. I will split the army in half. You'll take a half each. Since your both at fault for being distracted the one who kills all the monsters first will be forgiven. The loser will of course punished." the princesses smile was beautiful yet terrifying.
All the hairs on my body were standing up. Looking at Sasha we both silently agreed that this was no longer a game. Hearing the word punished both Sasha and I had instantly turned pale. Pulling my scythe out I began to focus. Feeling the power coursing through my veins I gripped my scythe hard. I was going to use everything I had and I knew Sasha would too.
The princess arm swung down like a guillotine ending the lives of hundreds. The downward motion created a monstrous blade of wind slicing everything in its path directly in half.
The battlefield was frozen. A straight line ran through the army. In fact the force was so strong that it ended up creating an enormous crack in the ground. The flat plains now housed a deep canyon that ran for several miles.

Yin-Yang
Mages in North America seem to have it all – typically from well-off families, and able to manipulate their environment in ways most of the world would never believe. They don’t even have to bother with the mundane details of life like housework, thanks to their sensitives, who also make a useful source for extra magical energy. After all, sensitives have no use for it themselves, and if mages weren’t meant to make use of it, then the sensitives would obviously have some way to prevent that. That a mage can transform a sensitive physically, with no restrictions beyond overall mass and basic biological viability, whereas magic tends not to work directly on any other living thing, is only further proof. And look at the way they live on their own, barely a step above animals. It’s better for them to belong to a mage. Sensitives in North America live on the edge of society and survival – typically so paranoid they avoid hospitals and anything else that could lead to being tracked, many of them with little or no education and no legal identity or existence. Mages exist, and mages want sensitives for some reason, but no one ever comes back to explain what that reason is. Waiting every day for the hunters to notice them doesn’t lead to much motivation or hope for the future. And once they’re captured, they’re the property of someone with a terrifying amount of power over them. Anything is better than capture. Mages are born to be the masters, and sensitives are born victims. Or are they? Jax’s life is turned upside-down when he’s caught by the hunters and sold to a mage. Andreas is still mourning for his previous sensitive, though, unconsciously creating a difficult standard for Jax to live up to, all the more so while still struggling to come to terms with this new reality as Andreas’ sensitive. A runaway sensitive isn’t what Van expects at the mental health centre. Is this a hunter trap, set for him and the rest of the Donovan family by the hunters? The hunters would, after all, love to see them cross the line openly and finally do something they can be charged with. Either way, Miranda’s genuinely in trouble, and he can’t just abandon her to it. Snatching a sensitive out from under the hunters and hiding her is odd behaviour for a mage – but then, Catherine is an odd mage, living in disgrace in the old servants’ quarters of her grandmother’s house, responsible for cooking and housework. Lila owes Catherine her freedom; is there a way to help Catherine achieve her own, and at what price? Tension is building between traditionally-minded mages and those advocating change, and something has to break. *** Yin-Yang includes a small amount of profanity and no graphic sex or on-screen physical violence. However, sex and gender roles and relationships within the mage/sensitive subculture are non-traditional in mainstream North American terms. The key criterion in a primary relationship is not relative sex or gender, but the pairing of mage and sensitive; given the transformation of sensitives by their mages, physical sex is non-absolute for a sensitive, and gender identity can vary as in anyone else. *** *** The way mages treat sensitives is extremely varied and, in some cases is outright abusive. The struggle against that is pretty much the point of the book. It is NOT grimdark or misery-porn! However, if you will be triggered by this, please, don't read Yin-Yang! *** Complete stand-alone novel, 153K words! Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.
