《The Immortalai》Aftermath

Advertisement

The day after the first conflict of the war is a bleak one, no cries of victory or celebrations for the returned soldiers just a grey atmosphere and many dead and injured being dealt with as the reality of how this war sets in to everyone's mind. Reinlas sits on his throne in the castle as the battle replays in his head he sees the faces of those he know died including that of Gragnior. Laraka walks in.

"How many?" Reinlas asks with a grim voice

"Current numbers have at least 1 billion dead and 547 million injured 328 million critically" Laraka says

"How many active and able to fight?" Reinlas asks

"Not enough" Laraka says

"Its a miracle we were even able to win" Reinlas thinks to himself

Laraka begins to walk out.

"Where are you going laraka?" Reinlas asks

"One of the injured was the woman who helped me in battle, bastards took her right arm so I'm going to check on her" Laraka says

"Right, go on and see her she may need the visit right now" Reinlas says

Laraka nods and walks out heading to the guard rooms in the castle where that female soldier is, he knocks.

"Come in" A female voice says

Laraka walks in and sees the soldier who helped him and he remembers the previous days fight. As they fought back to back they got overwhelmed and one enemy with an axe took a strong swing down smashing through the woman's blade as she tried to block and right through the right shoulder taking her entire arm.

"Oh Captain Laraka its you..." The woman says

"I came to check in on you because of well..." Laraka gets cut off

"My arm, its hard to even believe its actually gone. When I look I see its gone but I feel it there, itches beneath the skin and it moving around, my fingertips catching the air as it moves. It just makes it even harder" The woman says

"I'm sure you'll find ways to adjust or even be able to use your magic to make a new arm even if its a temporary one" Laraka says trying to be hopeful for her sake

"Maybe" The woman says slightly happier

"By the way I never caught your name" Laraka says

"My names Zytaira" Zytaira says

"Well Zytaira you are an incredible fighter and should we find a way too give you a new arm ill be glad to fight by your side again" Laraka says

"Likewise Laraka" Zytaira says happily

Laraka walks out and Zytaira looks at where her arm was.

"Be able to use my magic to make a new arm huh? I wonder how possible that is, guess I should try" Zytaira says as she starts to channel her magic into the cut off point of her arm

Laraka walks down the hallways and bumps into someone accidentally knocking them over.

"Oh sorry" Laraka says holding his hand out to the woman he pushed over

"Its alright I didn't see you" The woman says as she takes his hand to get up

"What are you doing in the castle?" Laraka asks

"I came to see my sister Zytaira" The woman says

"Oh how much have you heard about her current state?" Laraka asks

"I know she went to fight and came back without an arm and that's it, honestly I feel horrible I wasn't able to be there to help her." The woman says

"She lost her arm because of me, she came to back me up even though it wasn't her position" Laraka says

"My sister is always the reckless but caring type" The woman says with a sigh

"Seems so, shes in that room if you don't know exactly where" Laraka says while pointing to where he came from

"Thank you" The woman says and goes into the room

Laraka returns to the throne room and sees Reinlas still there speaking with some people about how everything went but he notices something Reinlas's eyes seem different.

"My king are you alright?" Laraka asks

"I feel fine Laraka, oddly fine" Reinlas replies

Reinlas's eyes get a spark and fire ignites from them as his magic returns in full force and due to the shock of it coming back so suddenly his eyes quickly turn red making the fire hotter, the people he was talking to move back quickly. After a few minutes the fire extinguishes and Reinlas ignites fire in his hand.

"My magic is back" Reinlas says glad and he extinguishes the fire as he closes his hand into a fist

"Laraka, As you stated we dont have enough people to have a proper force against the army keireen has but you along with that woman managed to fight incredibly well in the battle against impossible odds. I want you to find soldiers you trust and believe will be up to the task of getting trained by you to be the perfect soldiers, we need and elite force of amazing soldiers magic or no magic" Reinlas says

"I have some people in mind my king" Laraka says as he leaves

Over in Keireens castle...

"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN THEY WON!?" Keireen shouts at an injured soldier as he walks over to him and grabs him by the neck lifting him off the ground

"T-they m-managed to get reinforcements and had conjurers in a good place to t-take us down with conjured soldiers and weaponry" The soldier says terrified beyond belief

"Im hearing nothing about Reinlas's magic, are you fucking saying he didnt use magic?" Keireen asks coldly

"N-no one sensed magic coming from him and h-he didnt use it if he did" The soldier says getting more terrified by the minute especially when he sees onikerm walk in the room with his insane smile adorning his face

"All of the first have magic stronger than any other generation with special bloodline abilites no one else has and your telling me he used NOTHING!?" Keireen shouts as he then throws the soldier into the wall sending the soldier though it

"P-please my king im o-only telling you what I know!" The soldier shouts through the pain

Keireen walks over and puts his armoured foot on the soldiers neck.

"All you know is failure and excuses" Keireen says coldly as he puts all his weight on the soldiers neck crushing it

Keireen turns around to the guards.

"Anyone else have something to tell me?" Keireen says

The guards shake their heads and bow leaving.

"Good" Keireen says

Onikerm walks over to him.

"Oh Keireen such mundane ways are unbecoming of you, crushing a neck? You could have easily extended his pain for hours on end" Onikerm says with his smile widening

"Onikerm shut up before I grab one of your torture blades and shove it up your ass" Keireen says coldly and angrily

"Ah fine, just thought you may want to know how the souls coming along" Onikerm says with a smirk as he walks away

"Get the fuck back here you insane fuck" Keireen says

"As I expected" Onikerm says walking back over

"The fragments are working well, I'm losing some due to it being a delicate procedure but the results are staggering" Onikerm says

"Good, keep me updated if this works nothing could stop us from taking this whole planet and should their be anything else to conquer we dont know of, nothing could stop us from taking that as well" Keireen says smirking

"Oh I know, these things will be master pieces, how ironic the insane person is making these things right?" Onikerm says laughing insanely

"Indeed onikerm" Keireen says

"Also im going to take some prisoners from the dungeons" Onikerm says

"For the project or for torture?" Keireen asks

"Both" Onikerm says with sadistic glee

"Go wild" Keireen says with a smirk

"I plan to" Onikerm says happily as he walks away

Keireen walks over to a window and looks out.

"I will find out how you destroyed four kingdoms Reinlas and I will make sure my blade kills you when I do, there is no escaping me" Keireen says as his eyes turn black with red streaks coming from the edges of his eyes to the middle of his eyes where his pupils should be
