《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 24: A War Begins
Advertisement
I just sat there, waiting for him to pass. No matter how many times I would stab him, or punch him, I would always feel his pulse, always hear him breathing, so I used a skill known only to Reaper Lords that casts a soul out of the owners body, and can kill immortals, such as the other reapers. Using this 'spell' I finally sent LesLout back to the grave which he deserves to live in, for the rest of his soul-less exsistence. "Ahh, that took long enough. Well come on know, Michael, we're done here, now let's meet up with your sister." and the dragons came back. "You do know what you have done, Diablo The Reaper Lord. You have now caused a feud between the three races of Humans,Dragons, and Reapers. And if 3 of the 6 races are to fight, the other three will be involved. You do know what you have done, Reaper Lord?" and I assured the four dragons qualifying for Lord that I wanted to do this from the beginning. "You see, like Osroes, I want a war between the 6 races, I want to know the strength of the other races, and bring Reaper's strength to the highest." The truth is that out of the 6 races, Humans are the weakest, than Flugres (for there peaceful nature), than are the Reapers, Dragons, Demons and Angels. The reapers have never had any respect to begin with, it made sense that I wanted to cause a war, to bring back my comrades esteem.
"Don't worry about a thing. Although not Officially, the next Human Lord would be Hazen the Tenth, as he was stronger than LesLout, in all truth." I knew that it was no problem killing LesLout, as that was only phase 1 of my plan. What I have to do next before the entire war starts, I need to train Michael into knowing how to use his abilities to its fullest, and with that he could essentially become the Lord of each race. Just when I was about to leave, I heard a lot of rumbling. It was very loud, as if thunder was coming, and then I realized it was of a Spatial Dragon, and I knew only one dragon whose roar was that loud. "Ahh, who has awoken me from my slumber......... Diablo! It has been a great deal of time, but, why is LesLout dead, and soul-less in that matter?" he had finally awoken. "RagNar-Ok, I have come here to declare a declartion of war. Although I know we are friends, I have declared war against every other race, by killing the Human Lord, LesLout. So, I came here, simply to start it with you, because you are the only Lord who I know will not take action immediatly, because you are a lazy one. Now, I will bring my student, and take my leave, oh, by the war, the council is starting tomorrow, at 6 AM , in Earth Time. It will be held at Heaven, in the Royal Council of Lords, I would be pleased to see if you actually go there." and with that I left.

He seemed a bit angered, but , since he has a very lazy like attitude, he simply shook it off saying, "I'll kill you Diablo, one day. I was just about to beat my record of sleeping! I was on my 4th year , 3 more days and I would have beaten it, well, god damn you." and he went back to his sleep, but I knew it was not going to be a long one, because the 107th every decade council is about to begin, because, although each race has a rich background, this system was made a millineum ago, hence the beginning of SPIRITS as well. In all reality, the truth between SPIRITS is actually a delegation sent by the founders of the council.
I then took the liberty of escorting Michael back home, and Trinity gave me the information of what had happened, and a good way to show there delegation of war. "Well, if we bring LesLout's body, they would instantly realize a Reaper killed him, as so they would know you wanted war, and if Hazen the Tenth is to come, it would further show that you declare war amongst them. I will personally take care of my younger brother and help him learn about his power and make him use it well." and with that, we took seperate paths, and I set up the portal for dimension jumping. After setting up the Heaven portal, which was like the Dragon portal (Just different emblems/saying/positioning/etc) . I then went through the dimension. As usual, the guard came.
"Who goes there? Oh, the Reaper Lord? Well, come on this way, but first, let me check you............ All clear! You may now go to your hotel" he said, and I went to the inn that Gabriel rented for us and waited there. I was , as usual the first to arrive, as the other lords are usually late, but Trine (Flugre Queen) came 2 hours after me, which was unusual, as she usually comes the last, which amazes me, considering how late RagNar-Ok always come. She then greeted me. "Fine meeting you today, Diablo. Although, my instincts tell me that you have a secret you want to pass to the rest of us, and not a good one at that, so I shall wait and see what it is about." I always knew that the Flugres were a fearsome group of warriers. They loved nature, however, and as a result were peaceful, but if, for some reason, all of the Flugre's became angry, and lost there sense of justice, they would be the strongest there is.
After a while, they finally came, everyone, and then the time came. Tomorrow morning, when we were about to start the meeting, RagNar-Ok finally came, which suprised me as well, because he usually doesn't come. We then went to the council, which was decked in white, and was extremely holy. To prevent himself from dieing, the Demon Secretary, with the help of angels, had a barrier surronding her, which allowed her to be able to come to the meeting, without dieing from the Holiness. Gabriel Raphiel gave us a warm greeting. "Hello, to see you all, Raizel, Trine, RagNar-Ok, Skiean, but where is LesLout? He hadn't missed one yet, well, anyways, let us start our meeting. First, let us speak about military. Raizel, you need to cut your army number, because it exceeds 100,000 , which was required. Although mine and Skiean's are also above the quota, we shall make due and cut our numbers. Trine, you still have around... 23,462, was it? Yes, well, if you want, you can recruit more..... oh... sorry, I forgot. " in the midst of discussing about war, and everything, Hazen finally showed up. "I'm sorry for being late, the guards gave me a hard time, and it was my first time coming here, so, where were we?" and the other were stupefied. "Um... who exactly, are you?" Skiean had asked, because no one else wanted to say something that harsh, and RagNar-Ok was always a quiet one, even after being gifted vocal cords. Hazen seemed confused himself, "Well, have you not seen my mark? .... I'm Hazen The Tenth, son of Hazen The Ninth, and the 106th Human Lord." and the rest seemed astonished. "Boy, although I do not like saying this, but to disgrace the name of LesLout infront of us. We can accept you as his secretary, but don't make bold claims that you are the next Lord." Gabriel said, seemingly angered, the first time I saw him like that.

Skien looked at me and showed me the signal, which means she knows perfectly what I'm doing. I then interjected Gabriel speech, "No, his claim is perfect, it is exactly true , and I have my proof as well," and from my alternate rift, I grabbed LesLout's body, and threw it on the table. "I want war! This is my declaration of war! You must have heard by now, that I fought LesLout at RagNar-Ok's dimension, so now that he is angry at me, we are going to start a three way war. Now, are you going to interject? Or let us fight in peace, your call, Gabriel, Skien, Trine." and this caused a great commotion between the three, yet Skien didn't really do anything, she knew this was going to happen. Gabriel seemed more pissed then ever, "What is the meaning of this, Diablo? We had made a peace treaty, amongst us six, now what happened to that?" and I simply shrugged, "Well, I suppose its broken now, so, can we fight now, amongst us three or us six?" and Gabriel continued growing more and more angry.
He then calmed down, and said, "Okay, listen, you have broke the treaty, as a result , we have to comply with the agreement, and, well, you win. It will be an all out war. We all will be against the reapers, the 4th in ranking, so, good luck surviving." and I was extremely happy, my wish finally passed through, I was about to thank them, when Hazen threw a knife at me, milimetres away from my face. "Ho,ho,ho! You, are trying to kill me, right now?" and Hazen glowed with anger, "You have killed LesLout, our companion, so now, I'll personally have your head in my collection, and I will make sure you pay for what you have. Now, I must tell this to all of you, now listen to my words carefully, especially you Skien. The Demon Lord.... Satan..... HAS RETURNED!" and then the commotion grew bigger.
Well, I realized now that this war has became more interesting, at that what Master has told us finally came true. But now is the big question, whether or not he has been trained well enough. Well, I simply walked out of the Council, went past the gates, and the guards seemed to already get the news. "You're not passing, Reaper Lord, you have commited a sin, and as a result you must die!" and they charged at me, but I simply dodged it, and punched them. The guards were strong beings, but not as close as strong enough to defeat a Lord. As a Result , I walked past, ready for the impending doom, something I wished so dearly to happen. "Now, let us continue with Phase 3, it's time to fight!" and I went back to my dimension, to tell my dear other Reapers that the war has finally begun, and that it's time our preperations came to good use.
