Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 307: Seige?



Chapter 307: Seige?

“The City of Untor is under siege by the Vanirs,” Said a Faceless, “It has been three days, and no two sides are making any progress. While Torma and Luian are now under control by Jotunheim. The Giants are acting very aggressive as of late. “

“And what of the Elves?”

“Siding with the Vanirs. There are, after all there creators.” Said the faceless, lowering his head as he handed me a pot of tea. “Lady Olivia has already been in contact with Freya.”

Humming in response, I stared down at the leaves within my tea. Raudr, I believe they called it the Scarlet Tea. Taking a sip, a wave of comfort slowly seeped into my pores as I gazed out from my chambers towards the massive valley created by what seemed to be Amund.

“And how are our guess?” I inquired, taking another sip. Trying to determine whether this fine tea was for me. I didn’t particularly like herbal teas, and I could definitely taste the berries used.

Waving his hand, a massive virtual screen appeared thanks to all the hard work of Mare and Anya. Observing the familiar faces I had not seen in quite some time.

“There seem to be some traces of Divinity on their bodies. Shall I activate the matrix, your grace? everything has already been prepared.” The Faceless said without a trace of emotion.

Tapping my fingers against my office table, I watched the surprised faces upon Merikh and those around him.

“What the hell is going on?” Merikh asked, bewildered, seeing nothing but the rubble they created. “Gu Shen, do you sense anything?”

“no, it’s like everyone is gone. What the hell is going on?” A face I had not seen said. He appeared to be different, especially in the clothing he wore. They were white, something that should not have captured my attention; however, something about them was different and familiar. “Gu Lang, Gu Li, do any of you sense anything?”

“Nothing, Young Master Gu. Do you think we are in some type of formation?” The one I suspected to be Gu Li asked, clenching the odd-looking khakkhara.

“Impossible, the Komora Vilra formation is in place!” said Merikh in a furious manner, “That should not be possible. Arsene is only a low-grade demon. He cannot possibly be able to make a formation more powerful than this one. It’s a Diety rank Formation! How can that be?”

Pursing my lips, I smirked; I had yet to even activate the formation, but whatever. Rolling my eyes, the fiery pits of my city began to simmer, bringing about the flames of hell itself. Slowly the massive destruction created by Amund started to turn to ash.

Consuming both the land and skies with dark clouds, when all of a sudden, the ash slowly began to fall. Yet, as the ash fell, it began to recreate all that was destroyed. The massive residential structures to the demolished obsidian wall were all rebuilt in a matter of seconds.

Shocked, Merikh frowned, a slight trace of perspiration upon his brow as he looked behind at the massive Obsidian wall blocking his escape.

Continually tapping my fingers, a bloodlust began to burn at my heart. Sniffing the air, the scent of my tea entered my nose as I gazed at the ruby-red tea, reminding me of blood.

“The Komora Vilra is not working!” Gu Shen shouted, clenching Merikh by the throat, “What have you gotten me into? Didn’t you do your research?”

Pushing him away, Merikh scuffed, “Watch it, Gu Shen, your Celestial Palace cannot afford to anger us! We will—”

“Fuck off, Merikh! We stand at one of the pinnacles of humanity! I could kill you, and we would pay a small price. Do not overestimate your value!” Gu Shen roared ruthlessly bitch slapping Merikh across the face. Blasting a few teeth out, to my surprise.

Rushing up to the bleeding man, Gu Shen stomped upon Merikh’s head, shattering his entire face. “Know your place half breed. I am a soul bender. Never forget that!”

No… no… Kami-sama? Is this your work? Is this your way of telling me this is the man? I knew you loved me! From this day, I shall eat people in your honor!

“Young Master Gu, forget him; he has served his purpose. Let us go. Killing him will only invite unnecessary complications.”Gu Lang said, pointing towards the castle I resided in, “Let’s head there I believe we—”

Smiling as his words were cut off, I pressed my fingers upon my cheeks. As he fearfully muttered, “I cannot fly… In Fact, I cannot even sense the spiral force here.”

“This was a trap! Arsene knew we were coming!” Gu Shen shouted, lifting Merikh by the head, “Tell me again why Lord Argo is not here?”

“Lord Gu, this is not the time for that!” Amund informed, heading towards my castle, “Even if it’s a trap, we must continue one.”

“Said a man who lost everything. But it doesn’t matter.” Gu Shen muttered, peering down at the bloody face of Merikh, “I have a rather special mission for you. Something Arsene will never suspect.”

Licking his blood, my eyes narrowed as I arose, “Activate it now; let’s make them sweat.”

Flickering away, I faded into the darkness appearing just above the clouds above them as I studied the Blood Laws bending around Merikh. He was at the third stage of Dao Comprehension in regards to blood. Meaning he holds a marker of thirty percent comprehension. Pathetic if you ask me, but who am I to judge.

Scuffing in disgust, Gu Shen shot into the distance the moment my city suddenly came alive, coving the entire city into a world of darkness. Yet, just as the night came, so to did the flames of hell.

I had spent almost seventy percent of my time enforcing this city. Making it moveable and nearly indestructible. An unimaginable amount of souls were used simply to bend the laws of fate and destiny. We did almost everything possible to make me a true God within Aze. While my servants prayed the hells, giving up their very souls for me.

Watching the flaming pits of hell rising, black flames stormed the skies as they began twirling around me as I returned to the center of the city, my castle. Sitting upon my throne, a mental image of every single thing going on appeared inside my mind.

“I shall show you Pain!” I shouted, letting my hidden Edge Lord take over, “Fall into my Genjustu foolish mortals! The hour of your death is nigh!”
