《The Immortalai》Terror On Wings
Advertisement
Since Reinlas and Farenhale started working together to find out more about the visions the wars in the west have raged on for 100 billion years but it seems the fighting in all the wars except the ones Itanroras kingdom is involved in have calmed down in fighting but even then all is not as anyone in Gierlanth thought. Reinlas in currently down in the city checking on everyone when Farenhale sees him and walks over.
"Hello brother, how are you today?" Farenhale says
"Ah hello brother, I am well" Reinlas says
"Good to hear, any new visions lately?" Farenhale asks
"Yes although they are only weaker ones that I can block myself from seeing" Reinlas says
"Ah good" Farenhale says
At that moment a mage speeds over slightly surprising the brothers.
"My lords I must speak to you" The mage says
"What is it my friend?" Reinlas says
"The patrols at the valley city recently came across bodies in the valley, most likely people from the waring kingdoms in the west but these ones were burnt to death in the valley from the look of it its so bad you cant even tell who they are" The mage says
"A sad tale it seems we must do something for them try and identify them they may have things that survived the burning. We must also bury them" Farenhale says
"There is something else to we saw bite marks it seemed like creatures tried to eat them but this bit mark is much bigger than any creature we have encountered before" The mage says
"Bring us there immediately we must see this ourselves" Reinlas says
"Of coarse my king. Please follow me" the mage and the brothers speed out towards the valley city and into the valley.
Upon arrival the brothers can smell the scene and see multiple guards there waiting for orders on what to do next. The brothers turn the corner and see the corpses it appears to be a small group that even had children given the size of the corpses. A guard comes over to Reinlas.
"My king we have investigated the area and found a small cave these people must have been using as shelter we found little things to show who they were other than this journal. Their names are in there with is good but they seem to have gotten paranoid from sounds they were hearing." The guard says
"Have you found anything that could lead to what happened here other than this?" Reinlas asks
"We suspect some manner of creature did this not because of the bite marks but because their are no tracks other than a large creatures tracks with burnt ground in front of them" The guard says
"I want this to be investigated more please hand me the journal as well I wish to know more of these people" Reinlas says
"Of coarse, here my king" The guard says handing the journal over
Reinlas began reading through the journal it detailed the people who were a family called the Relora's escaping the war torn countryside of the kingdom they come from. They had hoped to get into Gierlanth but were unsuccessful do to all the ways that were cut off or collapsed on purpose to keep people out. So they had taken shelter in a cave and were doing alright given their situation but they began to fear the valley as they had heard a terrifying roar some nights by some creature. The final entry was of the day they died presumably written by the father, he had written about a creature with black wings and as tall as a house living in the valley. It hunted whatever it could find burning them with fires from its very body and then eating them. The father was chased by the creature but he thought he got rid of it but that was all that was wrote.

"The creature must have managed to follow him without being seen and massacred him and his family" Reinlas says to himself
Reinlas goes over to the bodies and sees the bite marks that were mentioned and thinking about the creature described in the journal it had to be the same creature.
"What do you think it was brother?" Farenhale asks
"The same creature this family knew of, the one that hunts here in this valley" Reinlas says
"Do you think it is still in the valley somewhere?" Farenhale asks
"I doubt it with this amount of people it most likely has somewhere else until we leave but this thing is a danger to our kingdom" Reinlas says
"Indeed brother but what do we do?" Farenhale asks
"We need to get more patrols around going around the kingdom and any report of this creature investigated. The people must also be told so that they know the danger this creature poses" Reinlas says
The guards continue to investigate the area for a while some leave taking the bodies with them to be given a proper burial. Reinlas goes to Reinholm and his brother stays in the valley city they are both informing the people of the creature it terrifies some people. Reinlas speeds back over to the valley city to see Farenhale.
"Brother? You're back sooner than I thought" Farenhale says
"The creature was spotted near here, no better place to search" Reinlas says
"You are right brother" Farenhale says
"So lets get going th-" Reinlas stops and his eyes glow
"Brother! Oh no another vision" Farenhale says
Reinlas sees the west ravaged in reinvigorated fighting and soon he sees why. The warrior in black attacking from no where the neighbouring kingdoms slaughters everyone and everything in their way pillaging and destroying. Enslaving those who cannot fight back but only with his fellow knights so no one but them know of their most cruel actions and in the distance a deep, loud and horrific roar can be heard. Reinlas falls to the ground, his eyes returning to normal.
"Oh no, the wars in the west will soon rage worse than before" Reinlas says weakly
"Brother... Here let me help you to a chair" Farenhale says lifting Reinlas and sitting him on a chair
"That warrior clad in that blackened armour, the bastard attacked from nowhere forcing another war to Itanroras kingdom after the current is finished and from all reports that will be soon" Reinlas says
"Brother, you need not worry we still do not know if this will eve actually happen" Farenhale says
"I also heard a roar in that vision partially resembling the one described by the Relora family in their journal" Reinlas says
"Brother you need not speak more and you are not able to try and find this creature after that now please go back to Reinholm and rest" Farenhale says
"Your are right Farenhale it is getting dark as well so I must anyway" Reinlas says
Reinlas speeds back towards Reinholm and into the castle where he sees Linra.
"Oh my love how glad I am to see you" Linra says as she comes over to kiss him
"I am glad to see you my love" Reinlas says
"You seem a little off what happened" Linra says
"Another vision and a new threat to the kingdom but we are going to deal with it tomorrow. So let us sleep" Reinlas says
The two head off to the bedroom and the next day Reinlas wakes and puts his armour on and grabs Kylorn and speeds towards the valley city. Farenhale is already up and prepared to search as well.

"Brother, You ready?" Reinlas asks
"I am ready and we have a group of soldiers coming with us considering the danger this thing poses" Farenhale says
"Good, lets go get them and begin our search" Reinlas says
The brothers leave the castle in the valley city and get their soldiers and speed out of the city. Some reports of a creature matching the description of the creature the soldiers and people had began to call a dragon were to be investigated. So the brothers and their group headed to a nearby village which had a few reports of sightings and began their search. They found nothing other than some tracks matching the ones in the valley but it clearly flew off so they couldn't follow only go in the direction the tracks were hoping it flew that way. They seemed to be right as while going this way they came across people saying they had seen the dragon high in the sky or had seen it come and take animals to feed on. They couldn't find the dragon only more sightings and given how late it has gotten searching for it would be near impossible so they begin to head home, the soldiers stay to defend these villages as this is the suspected area of the dragon. On the way back the brothers are annoyed as they couldn't find the dragon so for all they know it could kill someone or even an entire village, Reinlas suddenly fell to the ground and due to the speed they were going at he fly's across the ground, Farenhale speeds over to check on him when he see Reinlas's eyes glowing.
"Oh no. Not again" Farenhale says
All Reinlas sees is the sky as he moves through out the vision when he suddenly is forced to look down and dive towards the ground he is confused as to what's going on until he sees what he is diving towards, he sees himself and Farenhale at the exact spot they are now and his eyes abruptly turn to normal as he forces himself out the vision and he looks up and immediately tackles his brother out of the way of the dragon as it land right where they stood. The dragon looks to the sky and lets out the roar Reinlas heard in his other vision and then the dragon looks towards Reinlas and his brother and begins attacking them with fire breath first.
"Move now brother!" Reinlas shouts to his brother while he puts out a shield with his magic
"I wont leave you here!" Farenhale shouts
"We either fight it together or one of us leaves for reinforcements!" Reinlas shouts feeling the power through his shield
"Either way I like our chances brother!" Farenhale shouts determined and drawing his blade
"Alright then! Lets kill this dragon!" Reinlas shouts drawing Kylorn from his sheathe as he pushes the shield back, right into the dragon, staggering it.
Farenhale speeds behind the dragon to begin shooting lightning towards the dragon. This angers the dragon and it whips around throwing Farenhale away when it hits him with its tail.
"Brother! You bastard" Reinlas says speeding towards the dragon at blinding speed and stabbing Kylorn into the dragons hind leg and Kylorn begins generating lightning while stuck in the dragons hind leg, this causes the dragon immense pain and it tries to take off and it causes Kylorn to fall out of the dragons wound.
Reinlas quickly catches Kylorn by using his telekinesis to bring him back to his hand. Farenhale gets back by this point.
"We can't let it escape!" Farenhale shouts
Reinlas knows this and has an idea.
"It won't" Reinlas says as his eyes turn red unbeknownst to him and he speeds in the direction of the fleeing dragon and throws Kylorn at blinding speed generating both lightning and ice as he flies towards the dragons right wing cutting through it and crippling the creature, this causes the dragon to plummet straight to the ground.
"You did it brother" Farenhale says but the dragon isn't dead yet as they find out when it charges in their direction, it completely blindsided Farenhale and knocked him away but Farenhale came right back shooting at the dragon with ice but the dragon quickly melts it with its fire breath and turns to Reinlas and its claws seem to grow bigger as it slashes at Reinlas throwing him back into the trees.
The dragon roars in what seems like a feeling of victory but the dragon soon begins charging towards where it threw Reinlas, The dragon charges right into Reinlas and pushing Reinlas through more and more trees and then lets one fall on top of Reinlas and burns it, Reinlas telekinetically pushes the tree off him and throws it straight into the dragons mouth and his eyes beam a dark red while his armour changes to have some red coming from it.
"What the hell?" Reinlas says to himself after seeing the red but he ignores it after dodging the dragons swing.
Farenhale soon returns to the fray when he jumps in to the battle stabbing into the dragons left wing causing the dragon to roar in pain. The dragon now roaring in a frenzied panic begins breathing fire all around him in an attempt to survive and even knocks Reinlas back into a tree so hard his left arm breaks.
"ARGH SON OF A BITCH" Reinlas shouts and he can only think about taking this beast down and he speeds towards the dragon and jumps over it and its fire and lands on its back.
The dragon knows this and begins to try and fly but with both its wings injured it cant fly and just trips over, Reinlas stabs into the dragons neck and begins charging lightning through Kylorn again causing extreme pain and damage to the dragon.
"You wont be escaping!" Reinlas shouts at the dragon but the dragon begins shaking to knock Reinlas off it and since he only had the use of one arm he falls taking Kylorn with him.
Reinlas goes to stab the dragon again when he lands but the dragon knocks Reinlas away as Farenhale returns.
"Brother with your arm broken it may be impossible for you to do much" Farenhale says
Reinlas dodges another tail whip from the dragon.
"Then we work together" Reinlas says and Farenhale nods.
Farenhale starts healing Reinlas's left arm while Reinlas puts up a magic shield. The dragon begins breathing as much fire as possible onto the shield putting it under a lot of stress. Reinlas's arm has healed enough to use but is very fragile.
"Brother that arm is unusable what do we do?" Farenhale asks as Reinlas uses his other arm to keep the shield up as he gets Kylorn in his right hand.
"I will say we are in a very difficult situation what are we to do?" Kylorn also asks
"Kylorn do you think you can move on your own or a bit?" Reinlas asks
"Indeed" Kylorn says
The shield is wearing down, soon it will break and all three could be hit by the full barrage of the flame breath.
"Kylorn I need you to fly up above the dragon while me and Farenhale use the remainder of our magic to create blades that we can use to trap the dragon down by stabbing into the legs and wings and impaling them to the ground and then you can take the opportunity to comes down and slice through the head to kill it" Reinlas says
"I can do that" Kylorn says
"Then lets trap this dragon brother" Farenhale says determined
The shield fails and the brothers move out of the way. Reinlas goes to the right of the dragon while Farenhale went to the left as Kylorn flew directly up. Reinlas and his brother immediately make some new swords and first go for the wings the dragon manages to quickly strike Reinlas but he had quickly Made a shield that pushed back before it actually hit staggering the beast. This gave Farenhale an easier strike and he took it stabbing straight into the left wing and impaling the wing to the ground, the dragon roars in pain and looks at Farenhale about to breathe more fire but with it being distracted Reinlas stabs into the dragons right wing impaling it as well causing it to again roar in pain. The dragon begins swinging its claws randomly and breathing fire everywhere it can but its movement is limited so the brothers can find it easier to trap its limbs. the brothers bother head for the from legs and stop the dragons frenzied attacked using their magic and then impale the legs to the ground and they do the same with the hind legs. Kylorn tries to fly straight down and cut off the head but the dragon moves its head and Kylorn gets stuck in the ground with not enough power to float himself.
"Damn, alright I'm going to get him and finish this off. Make sure it doesn't break free brother" Reinlas says
"Be careful this thing may be able to do one final fire breath" Farenhale says
Reinlas speeds over and quickly grabs Kylorn and as his eyes grow a deeper red he flies above the dragon and starts speeding down as they dragon looks up breathing one final fire breath, burning Reinlas but his armour keeps him relatively fine and with one swing while he passes the dragon as it looks up he slices into its neck cutting off the dragons head.
"It's over" Reinlas says
"Finally, that was a lot of fighting and my magic is near spent" Farenhale says
"Me too and I know Kylorns magic is nearly spent too as that is why I had to get him" Reinlas says
"And you did masterfully my king" Kylorn says
Reinlas begins to sway a little as the red in his eyes dissipates as well as the red that started to glow from his armour.
"Brother? Are you well?" Farenhale asks a little worried
"I may have used more magic than I thought" Reinlas says just before collapsing to the ground
"Brother!" Farenhale shouts as he runs over to Reinlas
"Ow, I'm alright I am just needing rest and I do not have enough magic to get to Reinholm" Reinlas says
"We are to far to walk normally and we still need to transport the dragon as we need to find out more about it" Farenhale says
"True the more we know of these things the better, brother I can sense with the power I have left that you can make it to Reinholm so go and then bring more people back" Reinlas says
"Good idea brother I shall return soon" Farenhale says
Farenhale speeds off not at his top speed as that would require more magic than he currently has but hours later soldiers arrive and some come over to Reinlas and help him up, they see his left arm which has returned to its broken state without the magic to finish the heal so they are careful when helping him up and getting a mage to speed him to Reinholm. The other mages get the dragon corpse and begin to levitate it and speed that to the city as well. The sun has begun to rise over the time it took for the soldiers and mages to get there as well as due to the time the battle took so the people are awake by this hour and many see their king coming into the city wounded while mages bring in the dragons corpse behind them. Many begin whispering but Reinlas cannot hear what they are saying the mages with him carry him up to the castle while the dragon is stored until ordered otherwise. Reinlas is brought into the castle and Linra stands there and she sees him.
"Oh no..." Linra says as she runs over and begins to use her own magic to heal him
"I am glad to see you Linra" Reinlas says
"You fought the dragon with Farenhale and as he tells it you were the one to kill it" Linra says
"Indeed I was but also Kylorn as he was the blade I used" Reinlas says feeling the burns and broken arm healing
"I am glad you recognised me as part of it but really you could have used any blade and achieved the same result" Kylorn says
"I would have no other unless I had to my friend" Reinlas says
"Thank you my king" Kylorn says
"Please my love just rest for now and don't speak either, just relax while I heal you" Linra says
Reinlas doesn't say anything he just falls asleep as the fight and requisite travel took much out of him. Even during the night Linra just wanted to heal Reinlas so she kept using her magic to ensure a peaceful healing of both his arm and the burns.
The next day...
As Reinlas woke the next day he found himself near fully healed just some burns remaining but his left arm was completely fine now and he even had some magic back, at least enough to speed around and heal those remaining burns which he does so. He looks over at Linra who is sleeping and he knows she was healing him all throughout yesterday and the night and he looks at her happy and lean over to kiss her before getting his armour and grabbing Kylorn who is in his sheathe and leaving the room. He sees Farenhale obviously waiting for him
"Hello brother" Reinlas says
"Oh brother your finally awake it seems" Farenhale says
"Indeed but I get the feeling you were waiting for me an let me guess its to do with the dragon" Reinlas says
"Yes it is I want to start the investigation into it immediately so I can find out more and no one wanted to move the dragon for even me until their King, Reinlas the Dragon slayer ordered it" Farenhale says
"Did they really say that?" Reinlas says wanting to laugh a little
"No, I just knew you'd want to be there for it" Farenhale says starting to laugh and Reinlas begins to laugh a little too
The brothers speed away and begin to do an autopsy on the dragon and they find some things not from their kingdom so it does seem to not have come from here unless the Relora family had a few flags with them. After a few hours the brothers step outside.
"I will keep looking into it and get back to you on what I find out brother" Farenhale says
"Fine, I need to keep resting anyway for my magic to return fully" Reinlas says
Reinlas' eyes begin to glow as Reinlas sees another vision.
"Oh no... Now after everything we don't need another crisis" Farenhale says to himself
Reinlas sees the main castle of Itanrora and Yaitera with the guards outside dead and as the vision enters the castle he see Itanrora and Yaitera face to face with the warrior in black, he is covered in blood and its clear its not because of the war he stands before them, to end them himself.

Leo Flores just wanted to play D&D with his friends. He didn't expect anything life changing to happen during their odd little campaign, but next thing he knows he's been summoned by those same friends as the Demon King who will lead their dungeon to greatness. This takes being a Dungeon Master to a whole new level doesn't it? A fun romp of a story that takes a few jabs at the common tropes found in isekai LN while also mainting a genuine plot. Some moments and characters are based off my own campaigns I've run before. Trying to upload once a week, but may take up to two weeks to upload.

8 132Whispers from the dark
During the dark times, the humans and elves decided to work together to defeat the Fiend. A high king among the humans was chosen, together with his archmage he defeated the Fiend. A few years of peace, until the high king lost it. He was convinced that the mages would steal the crown and take over his world. Scared as he was, he decided to hunt down everyone with magical abilities. Elves retreated to the safety of their forests and mountains, forever remaining a mystery to the humans. Many non-magical humans agreed to this plan of their lord, for they were also afraid that the mages would take advantage of their weaknesses. The mages tried to survive. The archmage, who was the former counsellor of the last king and protector of the royal family, protested. He wanted to solve this problem through politics. But nothing helped, and the archmage fled. The king got two sons, one was born a mage, and the other human. The king despised his mage son and banished him. His younger brother became the heir of the throne. Anger grew in the mage prince. He thought war was the only solution to this problem. Consumed by the will to gain power, he searched for followers who would fight the humans in order to stop the hunt on mages. The archmage tried to stop this evil plan of the prince. But the mages split in two groups. The necromancers, followers of the evil prince, who studied the crafts of the dark magic to terrorise their enemies and gain back the throne. And the sorcerers, followers of the archmage, who tried to peacefully restore the trust between humans and mages. But nobody knew the danger that was gaining back his power in the underground world. The archmage disappeared and a darkness swept over the world. Human, elves, mages, every creature awaited in fear the day the darkness would take back his control. Faelwen, a young woman, was put in the middle of this chaos. Even though her only priority was to survive. Hunted down by humans and evil beasts, who can she trust? And what whispers from the dark will reveal the secrets from the archmage?
