《Master of Cards. *Reborn*》Chapter 19 : The Destruction.
Advertisement
Kael's footsteps were an omen. His very pressence had sparked fear to the eyes of all who have seen it. Like a great beast of the forest that is patrolling. His pressence has kept many people to hide in their homes. A child threw a rock at Kael.
"You're a bad guy!" Kael nodded to the child.
"Yes, I am a bad person. So be sure that you grow up, get stronger. Then stop me. That is the only way to stop someone like myself." Kael said to the child as he continued walking ahead. Following the path that leads to the underground tunnel. Where many of Ontaro's residents observed from the shadows. Seeing the bloodied outfits of Kael and the blood dripping from his ram skull mask. The Avatar of Destruction, Kael turned to see the many buildings that had turned to rubble. Perhaps the fortress of this place was nothing more than just sands.
Following the path to the underground tunnel there were more Adepts lying in wait.
"Attack him!" They readied their guns with anti-mage ammunition. Yet, they kept missing. Kael was already within attacking reach with his longsword, slashing through their bodies. Leaving a bloody mess over his body, Kael wiped the blood off his blade with his left hand then continued moving forward. More Adepts were coming. A shoulder charge to throw one off course, he ran straight to the three people running at him from the right. Skewering them to the wall as Kael grabbed the Nameless katana. Slashing the limbs, then going for the head. Four heads flew into the air, Kael pierced the katana into the chest of an Adept. His body faced the target then pushing the sword upwards to free it from the body.
Downward swing that cut another Adept in half. Kael continued moving forward. Impaling his katana to an Adept Magician by the entrance. He ran to grab his longsword, spinning to the right. Freeing the blade and slashing through more Adepts. Timing his swing carefully as Kael swung the longsword diagonally from low right to upper right. Tearing through the Adept magicians.
In Kael's mind his only thoughts were how brutal love was. When love dies, there is no body, there is nothing left. The same applies to what had happened between him and the Priestess of Water. The love he had for Priestess of Water was still there, it was within his life. The nostalgia of being married. The love that she had for him and the love he had for her. Justifying it would make Kael feel better but clearly this is vengeance in its most unrestrained form. To destroy an entire country because of it, Kael was ready for it.
He went after the Malevolent Gods that screwed his life as Kael for the same reason. Kael stepepd through the entrance as machines guns fired at him. The bullets stopped before they reached him. Clapping twice and the bullets returned to the ones that fired it. Turning them into pure red mist. Their allies watched their comrades die before their eyes. Kael took gentle steps as he moved to them. Not a care in the world as he proceeded to maul the remaining Adepts in the room. Their corpses decorated the room.

Kael walked through the room, seeing the Adepts that have completely lost their will to battle. Falling to the ground with fear, perhaps realizing that everything was worhtless.
"The Marchen Kingdom is invincible! We cannot falter because of this attacker! Ready yourselves!" One of the officers spoke up, rallying their fellow Adepts to fight. The despirited Adepts got their act together forming barriers and raising their shields. It was not an act of futility that Kael had seen. Rather one of desperation, they were loyal to their country.
"Dulce et Decorum Est... Pro Patria Mori." Kael said to them as he pulled out the Ace of Spades.
"Break the barriers down by path." Kael whispered, shattering the card as the barriers shattered before him. Running straight at them with his longsword, Kael made quick work of them. His footsteps echoed inside the tunnels while the screams of his victims were head throughout the entire path of the tunnel. Kael smelled something familiar from the path.
"Ah.. So Vampires? Now aren't we getting cute." Kael said as he looked at the pale skinned creatures with their razor sharp fangs and claws.
"Human!? We will kill you!" the vampires charged at Kael, only to watch how he slashed them through with a single swing.
"Normal attacks... They shouldn't work!?"
"Ah, you forget one important detail. This is a cursed blade and I am injecting mana into it." Kael said as the longsword was covered in blue flames.
"Vampires hate flames. But I personally like blue flames when it comes to killing creatures like yourself. See, blue flames tend to burn through your defenses... Particularly mine." Kael said as he continued his onslaught, moving on his path as he went deeper and deeper.
This time he found a statue of Lorbis, one of the 15 Gods of War. King Donnis and his family were praying to it.
Kael let out a sigh.
"Huh?! Who goes there?" King Donnis turned as he watched Kael took off his mask.
"You? Kael Webster?! Why? Why have you come?!"
"Originally to try and deal with you because you attacked my family and tried to go after my mother but after seeing what you did to the Priestess of Water and causing two beasts to go on a rampage. I realize that your family is worth nothing." Kael said.
"Guards!" Kael shook his head.
"Your guards are dead. Your knights are broken. Your entire city is now just rubble and thanks to you. I know who I need to deal with." King Donnis raised his hand.
"Do you think that you're a god?! You can't go against the wills of the Gods! Your mother should have stayed with us! And she gave birth to you and you should have joined us!" Kael laughed at those words.

"I'm the one that scares the Gods. You see. Try and make a call to Lorbis... See if he answers?" Kael made the suggestion as the Donnis family prayed to Lorbis. Only to see the statue crumble to dust.
"What!? Why?! Why did this happen?!"
"It's because Lorbis has forsaken you." Kael said as he readied his balde.
"You... You can't do this! You can't! We are the strongest Kingdom in the world!" King Donnis spoke up.
"For the strongest kingdom, all I see before me is a King who is a coward. Along with his family... Don't worry... I won't kill you."
"You... You won't?"
"That's only half of it. The bad news is... I won't kill you." Kael said.
Meanwhile in the realm of the Gods.
Lucius was in a meeting with all of the other Gods in tow.
"Can someone fucking explain to me. How did the Priestess of Water's soul be brought back there?" Lucius asked, where none of them were to answer.
"I promised him that she would be granted rest. Do you guys want to watch him come up here and massacre you? Because I won't stop him. I won't. I promised my avatar yet one of you allowed this to happen?"
"Supreme One.. Allow me to explain." Lucius turned to the Goddess of Souls, Maybellestra to speak.
"When I finished my collection of souls and readied to send them... There was a mistake in the order of how the souls were meant to go."
"Go on." Lucius said as he held his mug of coffee in his hand.
"By that time... Mitara came to see me and he said that a soul had been misplaced in his domain... So when I..." The ones present felt a shake in the environment and Lucius got a phone call.
"Oh. Oh, so there was a name to it? Oh... So one of Lorbis's domain was in danger. Ah... I see." Lucius then turned to Lorbis who was stroking his beard with a grin on his face.
"Lorbis. One of your statues on Marchen was destroyed. It seems they were praying for you to attack my avatar." Lorbis's stopped and looked at Lucius.
"Oh."
"Turns out that person you gave your blessing towards, kidnapped my avatar's friend's mother. And tried to kill his family to get my avatar's mother."
"Oh." Lorbis just looked at the document by the table.
"It isn't your fault but I am going to warn Mitara. Because I promised my Avatar that I will grant him the name of the deity that messed with this." Then they watched as Mitara stepped in with a smile.
"Oh, wait. We're having a meeting?" Lucius looked at the red skinned deity who shot of a smile.
"Mitara. Did you take the soul of the Priestess of Water?"
"So what if I did?" Lucius let out a sigh.
"I'm going to be giving your name up to my Avatar. Expect him to find you."
"Your avatar?! Are you mad?! You wish to forsaken us because of your Avatar's wishes?!" Mitara shouted back.
"You are a deity Mitara. Only reason why I didn't kill you back when you were a God because your role in the armageddon was minor. But you did take the Priestess of Water's Soul." Mitara laughed.
"So what should I be afraid of this human? Just because he has slain a God?!"
"Mitara. My Avatar butchered your family, and I think I should have let him butchered you as well." Lucius said.
"Hah, do you truly think that scares me?" Mitara continued barking his protests.
"Need I remind you. He has slain thousands of Gods? Even the former Supreme One himself?" That shook Mitara to the core.
"When he went to slay the Supreme One. I told him not to do it but he did it anyway. I warned him but he made me promise him. That if the Supreme One was dead, we'd make a decision together to decide who oversees the Gods as a whole. Well, I think this time... Mitara. I am going to handle you myself." Lucius said as he stood up, Mitara was brought to Lucius's hand, choking him.
"One of you tell my Avatar that I'm going to deal with this God myself. He's done enough. Lorbis, go see how much damage my avatar has done." Lucius ordered as the Gods left the room to Lucius and Mitara alone.
"See... My Avatar... He's given me some form of inspiration. In the art of breaking the ones who wish to claim to be unbreakable. So pardon me, but you'll have to be the test subject for this Mitara." The doors closed on them, as Mitara's screams were heard.
The angels and demons outside were uneasy, they were very uneasy. Some of them were jittery, and some of the Gods told them.
"Put on your special ear protection. You'll need it." They all heard the voice of Aerith reaching them.

Prince of Destiny
Karl is the last prince of a royal house that has been overthrown by brutal revolutionaries. Orphaned by the revolutionaries, he was rescued and has been raised in secret by Leevana, a green skinned night-hag, for the past ten years. When Karl turns sixteen and is old enough to embrace his destiny, he and Leevana must set out on a quest to find his royal grandmother. But the depraved new leader of the revolutionaries, Joe Steel, is on their trail... Somewhat inspired by the basic concept of Don Bluth's fairy tale animated feature, purporting to be based on the myths surrounding Anastasia Romanov. I don't think this counts as a fanfiction, because it does not use anyone else's characters and it is in its own self-contained world, but please keep in mind the inspiration. Leevana and Karl are completely original characters, but Joe Steel, the bigger bad, is inspired by Stalin. Maybe let me know if you think it should have a fanfiction tag or not.
