《Lyca: Rise of Asura》Prologue Part 1
Advertisement
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. The earth was created in seven days but this is not a story of the Bible. After the earth was created and in the first universe God created man to look after this earth. He then went forth created ten more universes for his entertainment. Each universe a god or goddess of to rule and do with as they pleased. So they went forth and the help of their Father they created life in his own universe. The sixth universe ruled by the god Raki created his the planet Talmoya and on the planet he created what he called Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Dragons and other beings of great and lesser power.
However upon seeing that the humans were inferior to to the creatures he hath created he decided to intervene and gave them a power known as Heiki and knowledge on how to use it. After time the humans became powerful and conquered lands belonging to those of dragons. Humans became obsessed with power and fought each other for territory. No worst than animals, still an Inferior breed. But amidst all this he saw a beauty has he never witness. Vibrant red hair flowing down on her back ending right above her butt. A smile so tender and soft it eased his anger. Gentle purple eyes that could see through the many men that wanted her power. Lady Liana known as the Keeper of the Black Dragon and Leader of the God's Hand Clan a clan that sought peace throughout the world. Her power falleth beneath none. Raki saw her and fell in love with her beauty and will to stop the wars of humans and the different races and clans.
One fateful day her clan was attacked by two male individuals who she had denied her power once and they had challenged her but she defeated them easily and now the have returned for their revenge. Lord Figod and his king, King Wilough. Lady Liana's power towered at Mythical level while King Wilough stood just above the mid level of the Mythical status and Lord Figod was new Mythical being.
Both stood floating in the air in their best battle armor. Lord Figod covered in metal armor that had a marble like blue glow in the sun. The armor had an ocean blue lining on the outer edge of each part which gave it its bluish glow along with intricate designs over it. The king's armor was made of the same marble like metal but dyed a golden color that gave off a rainbow glow in the light of the sun. He almost seemed divined. As they looked down upon Liana the king spoke to her “Give up now Liana. Join us and the world shall be yours.” in loud and powerful voice.
“I have already told you ‘No’ have i not. If you wish to fight me the outcome shalt be the same.”
“Do underestimate us. If you resist this fight will not be as last for it is you whom shall feel thine wrath oh lady.”
Lady Liana stood unmoved by the king's word even though it has been a few years since their last battle she could not bring herself to believe that they had surpassed her in power after all she was amongst the strongest the warriors of the of this world. Ever since birth her powers were beyond normal and going through the God’s Hand training only give her new prowess beyond that of any before her.

Her many followers behind her watched as she stood looking at the king and his arch knight. Not an ounce of fear could be seen in her. Preparing for battle she whispered a few words and was engulfed in a blinding white light. When the light was gone it revealed her standing in a most marvelous armor. It was her best, made from the skin of the dragon once known as Diomag the reaper. A powerful dragon whose power towered somewhere around the Mid Mythical level. The armor was dyed white with different symbols painted in black. The armor gave off an ice blue glow.
One day it had attack their lands and they had to defend against it. He had incredible durability it took her and her dragon Climica the Black dragon along with four healers and two other mage warriors to take down the dragon. If wasn't for the constant healing from her healers the quest would of been a waste. Upon its defeat its bones and skin were taken to make different weapons, armors and other equipments.
And in her right hand she held a magnificent blade. Made from a metal known as Famot one of the strongest metals and hardest to obtained. The blade was an ice blue color perfectly in sync with the armor running from the tip to the hilt which was curved forming wings on both side and in the center along the blade was an insigni written upon the dragon’s bones that were melted and infused with the blade. The grip and pommel were made of melted gold which formed into the head of a dragon.
“A most beautiful armor. It's a shame I must destroy it.”
“I implore King Wilough leave now and leave with your life. Fight and this time I won’t be so merciful.”
The knight gave out a loud laugh not feeling threatened by her words. “Leave with our lives you say. You speak as if you know the outcome already. We already told this will not be the same as last.” he released his heiki with pulsing surge and it hit the ground destroying the earth and forming a powerful gust of wind sending giant debris of the earth in all direction.
“Evacuate everyone.” was her orders to the men standing behind her. They immediately complied and went to evacuate the people. Living in the mountains won't make this easy.
Suddenly the lord disappeared and reappeared behind her with sword in hand. Liana could still see his movements however causing his attack to not be so much of a surprise. Figod swung his sword at her neck, she was able dodge by ducking in that same movement she swung around also swinging her sword in an upward motion and releasing a wave of energy sending Figod a few hundred meters away before crashing into a mountain side. A shockwave could be seen in the distance. She then turned to look at the king, her face emotionless. She then released her heiki a mix of all the elements, earth, water, wind, fire, dark, light and mystic, it had an unusual color to it giving it a divine look, which began flow around her like boundless ocean.
“So let our bout begin!” the king roared out before dashing towards Liana.

Their sword collided causing Liana’s feet to sink into the ground and earth to crumble. A shock wave was sent throughout the air causing the rocks from the shattered earth to go airborne. The king then began a barrage of attacks each one being blocked by Liana. Every Time their blades collided a shock wave was sent throughout the air.
This is getting nowhere. Time for a change. He thought before leaping in the air and raising his sword above his head. “Jugo’s Lightning Destruction” as soon as he spoke the words a surge of heiki could be felt in the air as sky darkened. He then swung his blade in downward motion and as if to his command the sky began to rain down with bolts of lightning. Unable to dodge all lady Liana put up a barrier infused with earth and wind heiki to weaken the lightnings strength.
Then lightning ceased and Liana flew out of the dust with incredible speed striking the king in his stomach. A shock wave was seen exiting through the back of his body. Almost cracking his armor. This caused the king to cough up blood. Suddenly a blast of red light was shot down towards lady Liana who managed to dodge the attack by a split second. The blast hit the earth causing a devastating explosion. Having dodged the attack with incredible speed it looked as if she had just teleported out of the way Liana stood a few meters in the air from the them as Figod descended down to stand in the air a few feet from his king.
“Damn bitch.” the lord spoke clearly irritated.
“That’s no way to talk to a lady. How far hath thou falleth. I shall cut out your tongue for such insolent words.”
With that she used her speed to reappear in between the king and his lord who were now standing next to each other. Surprised by the sudden move she caught the off guard and connected fist with Figod’s face but before she could attack the king he was already bringing down his sword on her. She was able to block the attack but was sent flying into the ground. The king then extended out his left hand as he clenched his sword in his right hand spoke “Jugo’s Lightning barrage.” after speaking the words what appear like five circles began to form around his hand that looked like they were tearing through the fabric of space before a barrage of light lightning was sent where Liana had fallen.
Before the attack could reach her she dashed out to right seeing this the king moved his hand in the path the she went. Behind her the lightning tore through ground destroying anything its path. Suddenly the ground began to fall apart. “Taimat’s Eruption!” An attack from Figod which caused flames to shoot up from under the ground striking the opponent by surprise. A scream was heard coming from the flames. Lady Liana didn’t expect such an attack and was bombarded by the flames and the lightning. “I’m not done yet, Taimat’s Infinite Flames.” Figod roared out and multiple balls of fire rained down from the sky on where lady Liana was. This caused a huge explosion in the area. Figod stood with a proud smile on his face.
Cough* Cough* “I see now. No wonder you are so confident in yourselves. You are using the spirit blade technique. A technique used by the Blademasters. It allows to draw upon energy from a spirit blade. But it seems you have not quite mastered it. Once mastered one can fuse the spirit of the blade with oneself increasing their power tremendously, some say it even allows one to reach the status of a new celestial being. I wonder..”she paused with with smile on her face before continuing “Ice Queen of Fosterisia, Milla the ice of carnage, I call upon your power awaken and lend me your strenght.” The air then became suddenly cold the wind had stop blowing. Snow began to fall upon the earth now a land of ice that stretched out for almost a mile covering the mountains. Those leaving the area could feel the cold even though they were few miles away traveling by Vitacons, horse like creatures that have a connection with the wind and are incredibly fast.
“So she going all out on them.” a man spoke from within the crowd as he looked back to see the dark sky and snow falling.
Suddenly there was a thunderous roar that cause the king and his lord to open their eyes wide with disbelief and realization. The rumors are true. They both thought as black beast descend from the sky. The black dragon of the ice covered in black diamond shaped scales that protruded from its body with the tip of each scales an ice blue that was only visible up close. The dragon landed behind its master and expand its wings before letting out another deafening roar with a breath of mist. The dragon stood about three stories of the ground with a wingspan of 80 feet.
Now looking a Lady Liana her armor has changed a bit the black paintings no longer made of black but now a misty white protruded it out and encircled her breast going to her back forming two wings made of ice. Her sword was now a thin ebony blade that had no reflection only the insignia written down the middle shined a vibrant blue. Her read hair now a silver white that stood still in the breezeless air and her purple eyes had specks of white and blue moving in a circular motion and her lips blood red.
“Let me show you a blademasters true power.”

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
