From the ground, a youth wearing a white robe could be seen high up in the skies. The youth’s slowly walking on the air, step for step, pushing his body kilometres with each step.

The continent has been in ruins since the day the red cloaked beasts started attacking the humans. Several millions have died in their hands, most people are in the capital cities, hoping for the royal family to defeat the red cloaked beasts. But, the Kingdoms barely tried to do anything, they enclosed themselves in the capitals, hoping that everything would pass…

Fortunately, not everyone were like the royal families. The word spread, the word about the heroes roaming the continent. There were old men which had been hiding for thousands of years coming forth to fight, but they died not long after. Young men and women grouping up trying to fight in a frontal battle, only to end up in pieces… The moral of the whole continent is on bottom.

But…!

There’s a light in the darkness. Words have spread through every Human Kingdoms, cities and villages. Bards made songs, writers made stories and poems, historians wrote down every single word.

A youth, a silver haired youth was the light of the continent. The youth would always wear a white robe, after every passing, his robe would be drenched in blood. His facial expression barely showed any expression, but a tinge of sadness and pain could be seen on his face. The youth would rush like a hurricane, devour the beasts with his aura and leave right after being finished clearing a location. He would rarely get in contact with others, the times he did, he only left a murmur; ‘Time is limited…’ before vanishing.

In the eyes of everyone, the youth was already a hero. A sparkle of hope. A light in the darkness. A saviour…

In a random house during the night.

A child was crying with a low voice.

“Mum, I, I am afraid…”

The mother holding her son was trying to calm him down with a soft voice.

“Joshua, don’t you worry, everything will be fine soon.”

“You want me tell you the story about the youth again?”

Joshua nodded while hugging his mother.

Many parents calmed their own hearts and their children with the story of the saviour who’s trying to protect the continent against the beasts…

Thousands of meters above the ground

“Ugh!”

Shin was holding his head firmly, supressing his roars with all his might.

“No…!”

He shook his head, trying to open his eyes. His previously dark eyes were bloodshot, sharply staring at everything.

“Uwah!”

Shin closed his eyes hurriedly.

While trying to supress the pain he was feeling, he forgot that he was in the air. Shin’s body fell from the air, rapidly diving through the air. He barely had time to think about his surrounding, Shin neared the ground quickly.

“BANG!”

Shin’s body crashed heavily to the ground, the surrounding ten meters were dented over five meters downwards.

Surprisingly, Shin’s body didn’t get injured at all.

Shin had calmed down slightly after falling, he shook his head for little while before standing up. His whole body shook and trembled as he was trying to stand up straight, after having struggled to stand straight, his eyes turned white and he fell backwards.

Not long after that, a purple light escaped Shin’s body.

Zura appeared from the purple light, she stared at Shin’s body sadly as she picked him up. After she held Shin’s body in her arms, Zura kicked the ground and rushed forward, but she tried her best to be gentle with Shin’s body.

“Those bastards…!”

Zura muttered coldly, her eyes were cold as ice as she narrowed them.

“Beware, beware for the day when we return…!”

The atmosphere around Zura turned chilly, her fingers were twitching as she wished to rip everyone apart.

“On the day this Queen reappears, this Queen will unleash hell on you all!”

Every single word Zura murmured drifted away in the wind.

“Uhm…”

A weak groan escaped Shin’s mouth as he felt the unpleasant atmosphere.

Flabbergasted, Zura calmed herself down before hugging Shin tighter, speaking softly to him.

“Sorry, Shin.”

“I promise you, we will come with everything we have when the time is right. I, I’m sorry, I’m sorry that you have to go through this all alone…”

Tears could be seen running down Zura’s face as she stared at Shin’s face.

In an ancient cave

Aria was laying down on her bed trying to sleep for an hour or two.

“SHIN!”

Aria’s face was covered in sweat, she roared her lungs out, tears ran down her face.

Shin. Shin. Shin. Where, where are you now?

Tears ran down her face without any signs of stopping, Aria’s heart was beating faster and louder.

“Ugh!”

A painful groan escaped her mouth.

After five whole minutes, Aria manage to calm down a little. She let her aura out thinly, wanting to know the current situation of the base. Aria suddenly widened her eyes, she snapped her finger which changed her clothes into a white robe and rushed out of her room.

Aria didn’t stop there, she rushed further away from the centre of the cave, towards the entrance of the cave.

After having reached the entrance, Aria gazed up at the sky, seeing a few figures rushing towards the cave.

Aria wasn’t flustered because she was familiar with those presences which were heading her way.

Aria saw Kali wearing her usual purple gothic dress, Azane with her red armour, Peutoa with her new yellow robe and an elf wearing black dress with a cloak wrapped around her body.

What made Aria worried, was the expression of Kali. Aria kicked the ground with all her might and flew towards the air, nearing Kali and the rest. She rushed with all her force and barely stopping five meters away from Kali.

Aria saw that Kali had sweat running down her face, a frown on her face and her eyes were golden rotating slowly.

Before Aria could speak, Kali started speaking swiftly.

“Aria, we don’t have time, we have to act as soon as possible!”

Aria had a bad premonition since she woke up from her nightmare, she could only nod, turning around to the cave; yelling.

“Group 1, head out!”

After having yelled that out, Aria gazed at the heaven, speaking in a deep voice.

“You get ready too…!”

Not even a second later, a silver feather dropped from the sky.

“Remember to do your part, no mistakes are allowed!”

Kali said with a cold voice before turning towards the direction she came from.

“We are going all in now…!”

Aria narrowed her eyes as she spoke every word clearly.

Not even thirty seconds later, there stood thousands of people in front of the entrance. There were even a hundred elves with Eva leading them.

All of the thousands had different weapons in their arms, some had shields, some had scimitars, others had swords, hammers, whips, bows, staffs and many other varieties.

The ones standing on the front lines were; Kali, Azane, Aria, Lola, Peutoa, Anaj and Hath Kagatsu.

Right behind them, Eline followed with her armour equipped and shield on her back.

Further behind, Eva, Tor and Susan lead the thousands of men and women.

Aria turned around towards the warriors, she raised her voice, letting her voice enter everyone’s ears.

“Warriors…!”

“The time has come, the time to fight back. Our enemy has been like a pest, we can not stand still any longer!”

“Raise your weapons and charge forward, charge with everything you have, charge with all your might!”

“Because those who are standing behind us, are the ones we love. Our family, our community, our Kingdom, our continent…!”

“Charge…!”

A unison roar could be heard from the warriors. There were men, female, young and old warriors in the crowd. They were all ready to fight to their death.

“Move out!”

Aria roared as she took her sword out of her scabbard and lifting it high up in the air.

The second Aria finished speaking, everyone ran forward calmly. There was no fear on their faces, no worries and no dread to their enemies. They were calm, calm to the point of being scary.

Just the movement of the warriors made the ground tremble.

Kingdom of Leran

The capital

Tharia rushed with haste towards Leo’s bedroom, she didn’t bother with knocking and pushed it open.

“Your Majesty, Qui sent a message, they have begun moving out…!”

Leo which was asleep, opened his eyes. His eyes were calm, he lifted his body and dressed himself. He didn’t speak a single word, he walked slowly out of his bedroom. Tharia followed behind Leo, Leo was walking outside the palace, after going out, he saw tens of thousands of men and women wearing a red armour with a lion crest on the upper left side on their chest.

The tens of thousands of men and women stood there calmly, with a shield on their back, a spear in their hand and a sword in a scabbard.

Leo glared at all of them before raising his voice.

“This will be a massacre, most of you will not be able to return. Those who are afraid, those who would like to live with their loved ones, return to your homes.”

Leo spoke with a calm voice, reassuring everyone that if they wanted to leave, there would be no problem.

The men and women didn’t glance around, in unison, they lifted their spears and slammed it to the ground repeatedly. Not long after, a mighty roar could be heard.

“Fight!”

The roar was a sign, after one roared, tens joined in. After the tens joined in, thousands followed behind, roaring their lungs out.

“Fight! Fight!”

Leo had a grin on his face as he stared at the warriors in front of him.
