King of Trind
The sound of hurried steps quickly approaches the unmarked and nondescript room. The man leaning over the sand table looks up briefly as the door opens and closes abruptly. “Speak,” He insists, his focus back on the sculpted terrain beneath his hands. He’s missing something, but he just can’t figure out what.
The messenger takes a moment to gather his breath before he reveals the news that his sources had brought him not minutes earlier. “Your Grace,” He starts. Hand to his chest, he begins rambling, “My sources have reported news from the Palace of Shadows. The empress is to leave for the Land of Creatures in two days time.”
This causes the king of Trind to stand straight. His teeth grind as he asks why. The messenger shakes his head. “She is in search of something. Her dispatched mercenaries failed to secure whatever it is. This is all the knowledge that we have on the matter.” He doesn’t need anymore information.
He knows exactly what that abomination is looking for and he knows exactly what will happen should she find it. It will be the end of his kingdom. Hundreds of years spent building one of the richest nations in the realm will be wiped from history and forgotten, just as she had done with his own dispatched troops already. With shifty eyes, he starts spouting out orders. “Ready the fifth legion’s horses and my own. We head out in two hours. We must make it to Rebun before she steps foot outside of her palace.”
Everyone in the room stands to attention. “But, your Grace-”
“Someone send word to the kitchens. We need stores readied. And someone else dispatch messengers to Lonker and Barigremoy, we’ll need fresh horses and discrete ships readied along the way.” When he sees no movement, his eyes narrow. “Now!”

The room shudders at the sound of his booming voice, but it gets the job done. Urgent messages are written and sealed, travel routes are planned and mapped, and the horses are readied before the first hour is up.
Only when the room has emptied of his advisers and messengers does he finally realize what he’s missing. His mouth puckers as he marks off Zrucooz. He makes a mental note of how many soldiers he lost on that battle field, then he makes another of how many more he’s prepared to lose when he comes face to face with the wicked empress of Velshlind.

8 56No Strings Attached [Rewritten]
Warning Just so you know, you better be paying attention to the chapter title or else it's going to be like travelling across multiverses. Explanation Due to a single comment made by a wonderful person, or some douchebag in real life, I have decided to create two seperate stories. A rewritten version, and the original version. The rewritten version will somewhat follow the original storyline of the original version, but will have extra content, extra side stories of course rewritten personalities. The original one will be like a rough draft of where I want the story to go. Like for instance, the original story is like the first Link from 'Legend of Zelda', choppy but fun to read. The rewritten story is the Link from any game during and after Windwaker, smooth and somewhat follows the main premise. Overall both are going to be probably terribly done but hey, I'm creating a furture and past story so what should you expect. - Styx Whatever just put up the revised description. - Ariel Edited Summary Jay W. Blu, a dashing and charming rich boy who's been spoiled his whole life. He is very cocky, has a case of egomania and isn't exactly what you call a 'Relatable Main character', unless you somehow fit one of these descriptions and then relate all you want. He had everything you would probably want if you weren't pessimistic, realistic, or chronically depressed. But as most reincarnation/summoning stories go, he get's himself killed at whatever age he was and is sent to another world. Normally, he would be summoned as something you would call a hero, but since that's to cliche by my standards he is something else. Instead of being the hero of the people that he was told about by a friend, he instead summoned as the anti-hero aka, 'The Hero of Demons'. Now he must traverse the lands slaying opposing heroes as he tries to keep his mind straight, although it's to late. There will be weird people along the journey like a fangirling war general, a hive mind and a manly magical girl? Oh well, Jay is too pure to see love anyways.
