《Heir of the Divine Phoenix》42. Awakening of a Phoenix [2]
Advertisement
Somewhere in the Demon King Palace, a beautiful crystal that shone in a green color suddenly showed a crack, it was tiny but shortly after, multiple tiny cracks appeared, looking like a spider web, then, the crystal broke as its pieces fell to the ground.
There was an old man with humanoid form, in his forehead appears to have two horns, each curving and its edges meeting each other, his hair and eyes had a stunning green color, alarmed, the old man disappeared from his place and appeared on the Demon King Throne Room, however, his King wasn't here, the old man then took a transparent crystal from his pockets and sent a message through it, the transparent crystal is also known as [Communication Crystal]
''Your Highness, it's urgent, Lord Raza 'Vitality Crystal' suddenly broke....'' The old man paused before adding hesitantly ''Lord Raza... died!'' he said.
In a Kingdom not so far away from Aurorial Kingdom that had just become dust, the Demon King received the message as his face sunk 'In that isolated Kingdom, there's an expert that could kill Raza in such short amount of time? Is it related to the phenomenon that turned the sky dark? The expert probably ran away, I'll go to check the situation...' he thought while narrowing his bloody red-colored eyes, a faint bloodlust was sent through the air.
The Demon King appeared on the Aurorial Kingdom in what seemed like teleport, his eyes widened as he saw the situation, he couldn't help but think out loud ''How is this possible? In such a short amount of time, a Kingdom, despite not being huge, became nothing but dust?! I need to go back to the [Dnith] continent fast, I'll retreat, this is obviously a feat that a human couldn't accomplish in a short amount of time...!''

It's obviously possible for the Demon King to destroy a Kingdom and make it nothing but dust, however, in such short amount of time it's just impossible, the peak experts are currently at Spiritual Pillar or Tree Pillar, someone at this level could destroy a Kingdom in a short amount of time but they can't turn it into dust in an instant as Feuer did after losing control.
This is just how powerful the Death Element and the strange golden-colored Flame is, alas, Feuer can't use it yet, he was barely conscious and just for the short few minutes he lost control, his body almost broke apart, all maintaining him conscious is the fact that he has to run.
'With such commotion, someone will come, I have to hide myself and my Younger Brother...' With his body trembling after running for such long amount of time, Feuer thought as the sight of a forest with towering trees appeared on his mind, he didn't had time to admire its beauty before he quickly dug a hole enough to fit himself and his younger brother Dämon, he took his shirt out and covered his younger brother with it to protect him from the cold air.
Feuer used the remaining Mana he had to nurture his younger brother, though using the Mana to nurture wasn't good as a woman breast milk as it doesn't all of its nutrients, it will do the work while Feuer can't recover and find a city before hiring a woman, his biological mother couldn't breastfeed him due to her sickness so his father contracted a woman to do the job, there had some Gold Coins on his pocket, Feuer couldn't count how much but it was a small pouch, after confirming there was money, he lost consciousness.
Feuer vision was blurred and most his sight was blocked but right in front of some trees, there was a road, a carriage was passing by before a lady came out of it and looked at the tree both Feuer and his younger brother was, the lady wasn't stunningly beautiful but she had a strange aura around her, as if the Mana around loved her and only her, it seemed to communicate with her.

'Why the Spirits want me to check on that tree so urgently?' The Lady thought confusedly before appearing in front of the tree, she saw the shirtless Feuer holding a baby, apparently covered by his shirt, the Lady blushed after seeing his defined body, no trace of fat could be seen, his features seemed just so godly in her eyes, his beautiful light golden-colored hair brought her to wonder if it was natural. [1]
The Lady's hands moved unconsciously as she tried to touch Feuer abdomen, however, before she could do so, Feuer eyes suddenly opened as he held her hand and pushed her on the ground, his hand threatening to break her neck, he looked around cautiously before standing up and releasing the Lady, with eyes cold as ice and voice frozen as an iceberg, he said ''Lady, it's dangerous to touch a man when he's sleeping, however, I apologize for doing such rude actions...''
With narrowed eyes, the Lady said ''I accept your apologies, I only came here because the Spirits told me to do so and that it was urgent, you seem to be in a bad situation, you may call me Layla Geist, I don't want to see such cute baby like the one you were holding living in such bad situation, you can come with me''
'Such cold eyes, I wonder what happened for him to have eyes like that...' She thought curiously while noticing the many scars on Feuer sculpted body, something he got from some missions he did months ago.
Without a change in his expression, Feuer said ''I hope you can take care of us then, Lady Layla...'' then, he took his younger brother on his arms in a gentle manner before following Layla Geist, they arrived in front of a carriage, some of the men guarding it instantly said while feeling alarmed, they raised their weapons and pointed it to Feuer ''Young Lady, who's that man with you?!''
''You may put your weapons down, the Spirits told me to help him, give him a shirt, he seems to be exhausted, he'll rest inside the carriage!'' She said as the guards wanted to complain but she only looked at them once, sighing, they didn't complain.
Feuer entered the carriage after putting a simple shirt the guards had given to him and immediately started to gather the Mana around him, as long as he recovers his Mana, he would be able to heal himself through his Light Element, a few minutes passed as a small part of his Mana was recovered, he opened his eyes, patted his younger brother head before noticing an anomaly.
'Spirits?' Feuer thought while feeling slightly surprised, that surprise, however, disappeared as soon as it came.

Valor and Violence
Valor and Violence is a series of short stories following different, yet all equally colourful, characters set in the same world. Birth of a Legend, the first short, follows Captain Erskine Erwell, a newly promoted Captain in the Calandorian Royal Navy, charged with protecting his people from all who would do them harm. Great news for the Calandorian citizens, bad news for the Skjar reavers that ravage the shores in search of slaves. But when a small reaver fleet slips the net and escapes to the southern jungles of Marduk, Erwell must fight a war on two fronts; one against the raiders, and a far more difficult war against the hostile landscape. If he can't find allies in this strange land, he may end up being the one in need of saving. The first part of the second short story will be uploaded on Saturday, the 11th of June, following Ferez Ahud, an aspiring young battlemage charged with the unsavoury job of 'terminating' a rogue member of his college. But how this nobody of a mage became a fugitive remains a mystery, and when the answer is discovered, the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey. I'll be uploading chapters of more in-universe short stories each week or as close to, work permitting. Content Guidelines: course language and violence

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...
