《Chronicles Of Luvt》Chapter 1 | A Desperate Battle

Advertisement

Planet Luvt, a planet in the wide universe, there exists many kingdoms and boundless lands, unbeknownst to its inhabitants, Luvt is an incredibly large planet, if it were to be compared to earth, it'd be millions of times larger, how such a large planet came to be, and how it could exist with its colossal size is unknown.

Luvt is rich of history, and it was too large for any of its inhabitants to be able to document all of it, hence, there hides many historical sites, powerful relics, and possibly powerful and ancient entities that lay dormant somewhere in its boundless lands.

The civilizations in Luvt were in a constant state of war for lands, in a world where the amount of resources a civilization can control affects whether its inhabitants can make it far or not, power reigns supreme, and people are always striving for power.

In a certain area on the planet of Luvt, two armies were clashing in what seems to be a battle for the land they were fighting on. Multiple variables were in the battles of this world, especially ones that fight for land, for example, if a large battle were to occur on a land that was too small or too weak to handle the impact, they might damage the quality of the land, that way, even though one army would have won the battle, they might've damaged the land far too much for it to have its original value, thus gaining less than what they fought for.

Going back to the battle, the two sides were known as the Kai and the Ogoz, these were small kingdoms that ruled over a land four hundred kilometers in size, a relatively small size for a kingdom in Luvt.

The land they were fighting for was very fertile, and it was said to have many useful resources that were used in many walks of life, the two kingdoms were greatly deprived in resources due to the land they settled in.

Both kingdoms had a long history and due to their declining royal families and military power, their once fertile land that their ancestors had settled in had now dried up, attempts at agriculture were done and were successful, but the demand was too large to cover.

What followed were the deaths of many of both kingdoms' citizens, thus, the current war was one of the hopes to gain a chance at the revitalization of their kingdoms, and one could tell from the faces of the warriors that they were desperate.

A desperate battle was an ugly one. The instinct of humans that makes them stick to their lives as much as possible can be a very strong motivator and can empower people to bring out powers they didn't think they originally had.

When two desperate sides meet, one could tell that the outcome won't be good.

"Raaaaaaaaaaaaagh!" A warrior shouted with all of his might as he smashed down with a battle axe on the shield of the man against him, both were warriors of great stature.

It was a furious battle, and all men were putting their lives on the line for their survival, bodies dropped everywhere, sometimes even heads dropping here and there.

The leader of the Kai, Farook, was in the midst of the battle, after all, a leader was needed to be there in order to empower the soldiers' morality. The fall of the leader usually signified the end of a battle, and the slain leader's side were the defeated.

Farook kept a keen eye on the situation, both sides weren't doing great, and the outcome wasn't clear yet, the battle had started with ten thousand men on each side, and now the numbers were down to probably four thousand men or so.

"We've lost many people... this might be a lost battle..." said Farook looking at the current situation, fatigue apparent in his movements. He wasn't weak, but the two armies were fighting for hours on end, and it took a toll on the warriors' stamina.

He had killed many people in this battle, and reaped the souls of many, yet it wasn't enough to overturn the situation.

Just when he had said that, a breakthrough happened on the western side of the battle, they numbers tipped, and the Kai now had the numbers' advantage!

"Kill them!!!" Shouted Farook, killing the warriors in front of him, as they rampaged through the Ogoz's armies.

Meanwhile at the Ogoz's side, their leader, Zenio, was reaping the souls of the Kai warriors, and witnessed the breach that had happened in their formation.

"Damn... Should I announce retreat? But we're done either way if we can't take this land... Damn it...!!" Many thoughts were going on in Zenio's mind, though he couldn't get distracted too much, as he could pay the consequences of losing focus in battle with his life.

He decided to continue, hoping for a breakthrough of their side.

After a few minutes, the win of the Kai was secured, the number advantage was great, and it only kept growing.

"We've got this!! Finally, The Lord has bestowed upon us some of his blessings!" Thought Farook while he rampaged through the enemies in front of him, adrenaline hiding away the signs of his fatigue.

Just as the battle seemed to be at its end, the ground rumbled.

It wasn't an earthquake, it was a grand sound, the sound of tens of thousands of feet stomping the ground.

This attracted the attention of all the warriors on the battlefield from both sides, as they turned their heads towards the source of the noise, they looked at the distant lands, and to add to their already dire situation, what they spotted instilled despair in the hearts of all the warriors, the leaders of both sides shouted at the same time, "RETREAT!!!".

A grand army with tens of thousands of warriors, many of them being on war horses were speeding towards the battlefield!

"Who the hell are they!!! What is this!!! Why, Why, Why?!?!" Thought Farook, and similarly with Zenio.

As both armies scrambled to retreat in a somewhat united form towards their kingdoms, Farook with his great eyesight spotted the incoming armies' flag, it was the Sun Kingdom, the leading kingdom in these lands!

He had no time to think of anything else, and was organizing the retreat in order to lessen the chaos that already ensued.

The Sun army had closed the gap and were slaying those at the back of the retreating armies.

To the two kingdoms' luck, the sun was setting, and night was encasing the battlefield, the sight of the Sun soldiers became very short, thus they ended their chase.

However, the loss of sight was also happening to the two kingdoms' soldiers, their leaders finding it hard to organize the retreat, what followed is more chaos, but they somehow kept a solid form, and both armies that were trained for years performed a textbook retreat.

Many thoughts were going through the minds of the warriors of both kingdoms, things like "Why us...", "Why was I born in this forsaken kingdom..." were running through the minds of many warriors, unfortunately, as their trust drops in their kingdom, their morale also drops.

Both armies had returned to their kingdoms with both armies suffering severe losses for zero reward.

As the Kai warriors entered the lands of the kingdom, the receiving office responsible to organize the armies when they return from battle had seen the damages the armies had received, and from the looks of their faces, it wasn't a won battle, the receiving office knew of the current peril that the kingdom is going through, thus this sight was more like a nail in the coffin as they thought this was the end of the road for the Kai Kingdom.

Nonetheless, they did their jobs, and the news of the defeat soon reached the citizens, who weren't in a much better situation due to the starvation and drought they were going through, and chaos ensued within the kingdom!

Many people had lost hope in the situation and turned to robbing and killing of others who had any type of resources, it was an ugly action driven from the sheer will of the people to stick to their lives!

The inner forces of the kingdom had interfered to capture all of those who had resorted to robbing and killing in order to survive, they were able to contain the situation, but at the cost of lowering the morale of the people even more.

A few days had passed since that day, and the situation seemed to have calmed down although still grim.

The families of the lost warriors were informed of their lost sons, brothers and fathers, the bearers of the news weren't doing much better on the mental side, as they had to inform the many families of the kingdom of their losses, and had to go through the saddening sights of families losing their beloved ones.

Meanwhile at the armies' base, Farook was thinking about what ensued in the last battle, he was revising the last battle, and thinking of what to do next in this incredibly grim situation.

"Why did the Sun Kingdom attack that land? It wasn't that good of a land either, they are in control of much more fertile lands and shouldn't bother with such a land... yet they went ahead and did that..." Thought Farook while stroking his chin.

"And why didn't they just claim control of that land instead of planning an ambush on us..." He said aloud attracting the attention of the people in the leader's room.

One of the generals inside the room expressed his thoughts "Perhaps it might be because of our situation, they know that we're in a grim situation, and they either wanted to make the situation worse for us, or they just didn't want to suffer more man losses than necessary, knowing that we'll battle at any cost".

"Clever bastards!" Shouted one of the men inside the room.

Farook spoke again, "What happened has happened, we don't have much more to fight for, this kingdom is probably done for, unless some form of miracle from the Lord is bestowed upon us, we've only got about 30 or so years until we run out of resources, and that's considering that most of our people died to starvation or other reasons derived from that".

The other men in the room nodded heavily on that remark. Indeed, they don't have anything to fight for anymore. Any other land was occupied or too poor to fight for, they could only wait for fate to decide their futures.

What these leaders didn't know was that their savior was being born at this very moment, in one of the moderately populated areas of their Kingdom.

In one of the houses in the small sides of the town Afaik, a young boy was just born, he was named Leo, and this was their so-called savior, a healthy young boy born in a middle to lower-class family in the Kingdom of Kai.

In the future, others would call this boy, The Bringer Of Miracles, and others would call him, The Man Of Prophecy, and what follows is the tales of how he came to be, his story, and the rise of the Kingdom of Kai to power, and discovering the History of planet Luvt.
