《The Lonely Wanderer》Chapter 32: See bottom of the chapter
Advertisement
Four hours pass, huffing and puffing with pools of scarlet spread across the wasteland. Shenzi stands with White Flame stabbed into the ground, hanging onto the end of his life. With but a gentle blow of wind, Shenzi would topple over. Rapidly absorbing the life force of the 15,000 beastmen he had killed, his cells buzzing in excitement.
Unknown to him at this time, a great calamity is approaching outside of Abyssal Prison. Just a few kilometres away from Reinhardt City, two men dressed in complete black, with red eyes, purple swords at their sides. Moreover, a vast army of demons lay waiting to pounce on their prey.
The leading man with an aura of decay speaks to the young looking man. "Go my son this is the so-called home your older brother built. It's time to to get to work. For this operation commenced by the Demon Lord, I have brought an army of 150,000 strong peak 2nd stage and initial 3rd stage demons. March forward and topple your brother's home."
These two men are precisely Shao and the demon that was sent to capture both Shao and Shenzi four years ago. Saluting the demon Shao shouts aloud to the army behind him. "Charge forward you maggots, for every person you kill you gain ten contribution points. If you manage to kill Obsidian or Catherine, you will immediately get promoted."
The trained and battle-hardened experts of New Heart Village. Smash the drums a tune of war, waking up the entirety of Reinhardt City like a colossal sleeping giant from ancient times. With the average strength of everyone reaching stage two four stars, and the select few third stage experts. This war is already in favour of the demons.
All the mercenary squads assemble under the leadership of Catherine, Obsidian, and the various other war generals Shenzi had selected. While lacking in strength, everyone present had trained to assimilate their fear into power.

Both armies advance, radiating a killing intent thick enough to be seen from miles away. This bloody war commences, the troops of each side collide. For each demon killed, on average three humans would be the equivalent of a single demon's life.
Already seeing the casualties reach up to three-thousand in a matter of seconds. Catherine, Obsidian and various other generals make their move. Knowing to survive today with their lives intact being near impossible unless a miracle happens all will die. With the embodiment of their miracle maker long gone, unaware of the chaos there is nothing but a .1 per cent chance of survival.
Engulfing herself with her Blazing Ice Heart Flame, Catherine runs into the middle of the demon's formation. Incinerating the demons into ash, and freezing them with a chilling ice component. Feeling Shao lock onto her, the deathly aura and sense of crisis, has never been so despairing in her life.
Sizing up Shao vigilantly, Catherine is taken aback in shock. "You why do you look like Shenzi, what reason do you have for slaughtering our people?" Speaking with a voiced laced with hatred and heavy killing intent, "It's simple I have come to eradicate my older brother's so-called home once more. Last time I failed, however, this time he has gone into Abyssal Prison without a care for the safety of his people. His ignorance is what will cost you your life."
Having seen Shenzi's previous down-trodden state, and his nearly insane craving for power. Catherine finally understands the weight upon his heart, the pressure he puts on himself is not for fun. Only because if he doesn't, no one else will stand up and take over the burden.
Unsheathing her Sword emitting the initial Sword World aura, Catherine throws all hesitation to the back of her mind. "I will not allow you to destroy the haven your brother had created for us. If it wasn't for the pressure on him already, he had put more on supporting the lives of hundreds of thousands."

Congealing her Sword Qi into her Sword awakening its spirit, Catherine chants, "I am the chilling cold. The bearer of the elven queen's bloodline, immolate my life force in exchange for world-shattering power."
The eyes of the elven ancestor form in the sky looking down upon Catherine. Sighing heavily before accepting Catherine's ritual. "Kid this is the last time the remnants of my soul can awaken. Previously this was meant to be used when the elven race is facing destruction. Now you're foolishly wasting this gift. However, your heart stays true to its decision."
Burning ninety per cent of her life force, achieving the power of an initial fourth stage expert. Catherine swings her sword killing thousands of demons in one swing. With limited time Catherine enters a state of slaughter forgetting everything else.
Kicking Shao in the abdomen sending him flying five-hundred metres through the air. Catherine uses the ground as a launch pad, exploding out with tremendous momentum arriving behind Shao. With a clenched fist punching down on the back of Shao's head, his skull caves in as he's launched into the earth, causing cracks to spread like a spiders web.
Thrusting her sword down with the Blazing Ice Heart aiming for Shao's heart. The size of a pebble stops Catherine's sword that was kicked by the demon. "Women you're indeed crazy, sacrificing your life for the one you live. It's too bad your feelings will never reach Shenzi. However, I cannot allow you to kill this brat. He's the next in line disciple of the Demon Lord, despite your beauty and the urge I have to mount you. Your life will come to an end today."
Raising his hand, a Domain of Darkness spreads about enveloping Catherine. Already in a frenzied state, with this Domain completely eradicating all her senses and battle instinct. Catherine gets impaled by a spike entering through her lower body, exiting through her mouth. From the force of the spike entering Catherine, all her organs are destroyed by the power with her heart exploding.
Exiting his domain the demon teleports Shao's body away. Looking down at the human, dwarves, and elven forces still retaliating against the demon army. He decides its about time to put an end to their futile struggle.
Enveloping the surrounding 2,500 kilometres with his Darkness Domain. Multiple pikes erupt from the ground, piercing through the lower bodies, and exiting through the mouths of all the human forces.
Chuckling to himself in pleasure from the single-sided massacre, teleporting all the human shishkabobs into Reinhardt City. The demon general laughs maliciously "Oh Shenzi my body. I wonder what the look on your face will be like, seeing the gift your "loving father" have granted you to see when you come back to look at your home filled with bloodstains and corpses."
Teleporting the demon army away and exiting Yang Major World, Aran returns to the base of the Demons kneeling in front of the Demon Lord. "Your majesty the deed is done; however, I fear the cogs of fate are turning already. My boy seems to have awoken a small part of the Retribution Dragon Bloodline inherited from his mother."
Nodding his head and smiling the Demon Lord speaks, "Interesting, that bitch escaped my grasps falling in love with a human. Now I finally have the chance to mutate my bloodline into a superior existence. The day is fast approaching when you're like a ripe fruit ready to be plucked."

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon

Tanka and Haiku
Overview TankaThe tanka poem is very similar to haiku but tanka poems have more syllables and it uses simile, metaphor and personifacation. There are five lines in a Tanka poem. Tanka poems are written about nature, seasons, love, sadness and other strong emotions. This form of poetry dates back almost 1200 years ago.HaikuHaiku poetry hails from Japan and uses strict syllable guidelines rather than focusing on meter or rhyme. Because the poem is short only three lines with 17 total syllables writers must choose words carefully to create meaning. Haiku poetry is typically simplistic, but its meaning can have great depth. Source : Wikipedia You can share my poem but dont copy, Piglarism is a crime. Enjoy reading po. 💕😊💕Ms. Eryl
