《Dark Chronicles》CH 40 Summoners fight
Advertisement
It's the final day of the tournament.I have only two matches for today. Then i move onto the matches against other schools that will be held in the capital.
'So nervous?'
'No,should i be?'
'A healthy margin never hurt anyone'
'Thanks i will try to keep that in mind'
'Got any kind of strategy'
'Fight with all i got'
'I think it needs a little more depth'
'Fine,Fight with all i got until my opponent falls'
'Well at least it's got more words in it'
I continue to meditate and try to focus on my body.
"Kaito,Kaito"
I open my eyes to see the man in the official attire calling out my name. I get up and walk over to the man, he steps to side and allows me to enter the tunnel to my second last match.
I finally reach the arena. I see my opponent across the field from me. She is wearing a long brown robe that covers her entire body. I'm able to see that the robes have a few enchantments placed on them, they are mostly medium grade with a few lower grade mixed in.
"Well hello ladies and gentlemen i welcome you all to a fabulous day of fights. Sadly though this will be our last day of fights before all the amazing fighters move onto the main event in the capital city, so without further a dew i will introduce the fighter for today's match. First we have the first year Dark horse that has defeated all opponents and exposed a cheating scam. So here he is everyone Kaito.
The crowd explodes into cheers for me.
"Go get em Kaito"
"Blow her away"
"Show no mercy"
Is't this a complete three sixty from when i entered the arena for the first time.
"Next we have the fearsome earth master Georgia Earten She has buried all of her competition sometimes metaphorically and some time physically so what can she do against the fearsome Dark horse. I know we all can't wait to see.
"Kick his ass Georgia"
"Show some awesome earth magic out there"
"Give him hell"
"So your the one they call the Dark Horse"
"Apparently"
"Well i hope we can have a fair thrilling fight unlike that one against Evan"
"So do i"
"BEGIN"
Before i can do anything a magical circle appears underneath Georgia. The earth underneath her starts to shine. A massive earthquake shakes the entire arena.All the earth in the arena start to crack up and shatter. I quickly activate my [Dragon mark] and place a shield of fire around myself.
I'm safe inside my shield, but outside the arena is getting completely destroyed. Once i finally lower my shield i get a clear look at what has happened. The entire arena is destroyed, it looks like a disaster zone after a massive earthquake has hit it. I look outside the arena the audience is completely unharmed thanks to the magical barrier protecting them.
I look across to where my opponent should be. Instead in her place is a giant made completely out of stone. On Top of it's head lies my opponent.
"Incredible ladies and gentlemen Georgia has brought out her summoned spirit the earth giant king"
So that's how she fights with summoned spirits. Well this is going to be interesting.

I quickly connect to the spirit plain and summon Blaze onto the field.
"Master Blaze is here, ready to blaze"
"Good then today we will be fighting that"
I point over at the stone giant. I look over at blaze expecting a face of shock, but instead find Blaze grinning with a hungry look for combat in those skeleton eyes.
"I see you can also summon spirits, but i am very surprised that your's can talk not many spirits can do that"
"Well trust me Blaze can do a lot more than just talk. Let me show you"
"Blaze take down the summoner on top of the stone giant"
"Yes master"
Blaze shoots fourth up towards Georgia.
"Fine let's see what your talking spirits got. King take that spirit down"
As Blaze is flying to meet Georgia, fists and hands shoot out of the giant and try to grab ahold of Blaze. Blaze doges in between each attack with little difficulty. As Blaze gets higher and higher towards Georgia the attacks become faster and more unpredictable.Eventually one of the hands grabs onto Blaze, emerald shards erupt from Blazes skull severely damaging it.
The giant throws Blaze to the floor. I run over and find blaze in a bad condition.
"Blaze are you alright"
"Blaze just needs some mana and Blaze will blaze again"
I flow more mana into Blaze. The injuries on Blaze quickly heal over and the flames around have even gotten stronger. Blaze flies up and places himself in front of the giant ready for another fight.
"Blaze are you sure that you can do this"
"Blaze is fine just needed more mana now Blaze can blaze this pathetic king out of the arena"
Blaze begins to stare down the stone giant like they have some kind of dark past.
"Alright then, but this time we'll use ranged attacks"
"Yes master"
I stand up ready to fight with Blaze for a second time.
"Blaze [Flame Vortex]"
A tornado of fire shoots out from Blaze's mouth aimed at the stone giant.
"Impressive,Let's see what else you're talking spirit can do. Stone Giant King use [Emerald Shield]"
The stone giant positions it's arm like it was carrying a shield, and soon a round shield springs from its arm it is completely made from emeralds and shined like the sun. Blaze's flame smashed into the shield with full force holding strong, but despite that Blaze continued to hit the shield with his fire, but no matter what at it's current strength it would not break it.
"Master i can not break through the shield and i am quickly running out of mana"
"Fine then i will give you more"
I place my hand onto the back of Blaze's skull, the flames don't even affect me thanks to me being his master. I bring force ton of mana from the [Dragon mark] and flow it all into Blaze.The flames covering Blaze continue to grow brighter and stronger with each drop of mana i flow into him.
Soon the flames get so strong that cracks start to form on the shield that the stone giant is using, the cracks graw bigger and bigger until the flames completely destroy the shield and the arm the giant is using.
The giant stumbles and collapses onto one knee,Georgia isn't looking to good either her body is covered in sweat and her breathing is hugged.

"Want to stop now Georgia"
"Hahahaha. No way in this fight i can finally reveal the king's true power so prepare your self.Stone giant King [Reveal Crystal]
The giant started to shake violently, and shards of green emerald started to shoot out of it.Once the giant was covered in the emerald crystals each one started to shine brightly.Until suddenly the entire giant and spectacular just stopped and the gaint dropped down like a puppet with all its strings cut.Georgia just sat on top of the giants head crossed legged staring at me with a wide crazed grin.
"SCREECH"
An ear peicing sound erupted from the now dead gaint.A single gaint emerald crytal shoots out from the dead gaint's back.At first the crystal does nothing,but soon it starts to shift more and more screeching each time until it takes the shape of a human.
It's about the size of a normal human being, it has no face just the shape of a head, it's limbs are long and skinny like a skeletons, but it has no hands or feet just sharps stumps made from emerald, but the most interesting thing about it is the crown that sits atop its head not decorations just a simple crown made from emerald.
"Blaze can you beat that"
"Blaze can beat anyone master wishes all Blaze needs is mana and Blaze can blaze anyone"
"How much mana"
"All of it master"
"Alright"
I place both my hands onto the back off Blaze's skull and start pouring in all the mana i have, blood and [Dragon mark] mana more and more. I pour in so much a column of fire burst from Blaze getting bigger and stronger.I'm completely wiped i've poured in all my mana i'm going to need to meditate after this so i can have some for my second match.
Once i'm all out i let go of Blaze's head i walk back and wait for the column of fire to go down so i can see what Blaze's true form looks like.Finally the column of fire dies down and left behind is Blaze. But now he looks different the fire around his skull is gone and left it crown made from bone that seems to have grown out of Blaze's head.
Inside the crown is five slots each filled with a diffrent jewel.In the center was a crimson red jewel that shined like blood ,next too that was two jewels the one on the left was blue the same colour as Blazes original flames,the one on the right was a green jewel that seemed to be even greener then the emeralds, one the far left was a jewel in the colour of white like that of a perfect pearl it gave me the feeling of completle peace,on the far right was a jewel in the colour of complete shadow nothing but darkness if the crown was made from a dark metal then this jewel would simply sink into the dark backround and no one would ever know it was there.
I couldn't help but stare at the new Blaze. The very aura that now revolved around Blaze was suffocating.Is this whatt Blaze's true form was.
"Blaze now that you have your true form can to defeat this opponent"
"Master this is not Blaze's true form only a mere gliplse into the true blaze, but don't worry master this is more then enough to defeat this opponent.So just leave it too Blaze to take care of master"
And with those words Blazed moved towards the emerald being. As Blaze moved forward so did the emerald being, each step it took slightly shook the arena, each one moved towards each other with passing seconds until they met in the center.
"So shall we begin emerald king"
"SCREECH"
The so called emerald king swung its arms at Blaze like there were swords.Each strike smashed into Blaze with such force the air shook when it collided with Blaze,but surprisingly Blaze didn't even flinch Blaze just stayed there and took the attack head on.That's when i noticed the white jewel on Blazes bone crown was shining brighter than the rest of the jewels. Soon the emerald king figured at this attack wouldn't work so it leaped back and crossed its arms, soon green particles started to float towards the emerald king until all the built up energy formed a ball of plasma.
Soon it stored up so much it shot out into a powerful beam aimed right at Blaze.The green jewel on Blaze's crown started to glow, as the beam was about to hit Blaze a green hexagonal barrier appears and completely blocks the attack.
"If you're done Blaze will show you what a really blaze can do"
The red jewel on Blaze's head start to shine brightly until a red beam shoots out from it, the emerald king manages to just barely dodge it by jumping to the side, the beam continues on past the emerald king but it quickly changes directions and aims at the emerald kings back, before it can take notice the beam strikes it straight in the back.
"SCREECH"
The emerald king let's out a pain filled scream as the red beam burns a hole straight through it's chest. The beam comes out the other side, then disperses.The emerald king start to crack up more and more until it shatters and blows away with the dust.
The fight is finally over Blaze has defeated that damn thing.
"WOW this has been an unbelievable fight everyone who would have none we would have witnessed a fight between titans today let's give our victor a huge round of applause."
The crowd starts clapping and cheering, Shouting various complements.I don't care i just have to talk to Blaze.
I walk over to where Blaze is floating, Blaze is just staring into the sky.
"Blaze what are you"
"Blaze is Blaze. Is master scared of Blaze now?"
"No way Blaze you were awesome back there, i just hope one day i can see your true form."
I start to see tears made from blue fire leave Blaze's eyes.
"Thank you master.Blaze has to go now used up to much mana i hope you do well in your next fight"
Blaze starts to fade then disappear.
"Thanks Blaze see you soon"
And with that i walk off back to the waiting area so i can recover for my next fight.
Hi i hope everyone like the new form i gave Blaze he won't use it all the time just in really harsh fights.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
8 195My Hundredth Life
I was an ordinary guy, living an ordinary life, until it happened. What we came to call the "Reality Break". Monsters started spawning in the streets, Mana flowed through our veins, Skills and Abilities were unlocked, and everyone had a Status Screen. I was living my dream, an RPG apocalypse! Until I died, that is. And woke up in a new world...where I died again. And again. With each death, a new incarnation, a new game world, and new scars upon my soul. Now, at my 99th death, I just wish it would end...but unlike in some of the worlds I have "played" in, this time my wish is not granted. *** Author's Note: This is my first 'serious' attempt at writing a story. I am hoping to turn ths into a series that I can publish to Amazon, but my life is a bit hectic right now, so I can't make any guarantees. However, I have serious reasons for writing at this point in my life, so I will do my best to provide this new twist to the LitRPG genre and keep it up for as long as possible. Thank you, to anyone who reads this. *Also, tags might change depending on how the story goes, there may be mild profanity or mild sexual content, but I have not decided yet.

8 215RESCUED AND RISEN
Becoming a stripper or taking part in what most people would term as 'prostitution' was never my dream. Becoming a hooked drug addict was never part of my future plans either. I had always been another normal ambitious teenager with a dream to have a top class job with a huge office on the 30th floor, but all that dream faded and life became a nightmare when I was sold to a drug dealer by my drug addict stepfather, months after mom's illness. The money my stepfather got supposedly kept him high but for me it became more than just being high. My life consisted of abuse, alcohol, drugs,poles and men. I wasn't given a choice to do otherwise, well not until I was rescued or more like pitied and not being killed when my boss and his men were taken out by one of the guy I was sent to seduced that same night. Who is this guy? Well I'm about to find out when I regain consciousness.This is the third book in the mafia trilogy.1.Daddy's Little Assassin2.Caught In The Middle3.Rescued&Risen**
