Chapter 3: CHAPTER 3:The Vast Unknown
Ivar POV
As I walked through the narrow hall,
that seemed very endless and vast,
I started to feel dizzy,and suddenly it felt like my insides were being crushed....
'Kekeke....You seem weak and ignorant...
but still,you are the one for me'
I saw a figure standing in front of me,Sitting on a chair that seemed like a throne,
It had a very dark and menacing aura,
you could sense it's bloodlust from afar
Wearing a black gown-like garment,
it had black tinted nails,I couldn't see it's face as it was covered with hair,
But one thing I was sure of is that....this being..
IS A WOMAN....
I couldn't tell where I was.....
She had a smirk on her face as she said...
'Go for now....Get stronger and come back...Boy'
"Wait,Who are you and what do you mean by that?" I asked as my curiosity has reached it's peak...
'You don't need to know that now,for the time will come when you will know' ' For now,get stronger and come back...Hahahahaha..'
"Wait a min-...ackk....." I started feeling real dizzy this time around as everything started disappearing into nothingness....
~Uagghh~
"Ugh...My head...Where am I....Huh.."
I jolted up as I realized I had been asleep and that I was dreaming.....Well I at least hope it was only a dream..hehe..
"You're awake,Young Master..you were groaning in your sleep,A Dream?" Stannard asked..
"I'm not sure,but I guess that's the case" I replied.
"Uhmmm..Stannard where a-"
"I'd prefer if you'd refer to me as Stan,You do know our situation right" I was about to ask Stan a question when Stan cut me off with his point....
"Okay..Stan...Where are we..?" I asked
"You don't seem to remember,..After we killed the Kobold...We-"
"Oh,I do remember now...We walked deeper into the forest after killing the Kobold...uhmm.."
"Aha,Then we made camp here after killing of a few monsters that inhabited this area,Right?"
I told the short tale about our little journey from last night to this morning,The sun was already out but of course,this is the North,The Land of Ice and Snow....You literally can't know if it's Morning or Night...Well I have heightened senses so I do know.
"You said that as if you helped in killing of the monsters" Stan really had a way to mock someone with the truth..haha..
"Uhm..Where are the others?" I asked
"Well Sir Hermann Took General Command on most of the Groups in other to scout for food...Ren also went with them..Umm..as for Leh,He-" Stan was about to complete his Story as someone cut him out.
"Heyyyy,Oiiiii,Boyyy....You're are awake.." Leh was the *SOMEONE*
"Tsk...Speak of the devil..." Stan lamented...
"Where did you go,and why are you dripping?" I asked in reference to Leg.
"Aha,Guess what I found!" His Face was beaming with joy as he continued with his story...
"About 600 meters North of this area..I found a Spring...A Hot one..I took a Long bath there and it was just so refreshing..Hehehe...."
"Tsk...So that's were what you were up to"
Stan cursed at Leh after his short tale..
"I think I'll take a bath too,I reek" I Said
"That's not a problem,You-...Ivar,You should take a bath,now that I think of it you really do reek..Keke.."
Stan is at it with his sarcasm again.
I headed in the direction Leh had given to go have a hot bath...Really am tattered...I wore a very short gown with a rope at the waist like I was some kind of slave..Though I had a Pant on.
It was a sleeveless gown,My hair came down to the shoulder...I Had Raven Black hair just like Leh.My hair was very tattered and my lips dry....
<\> I really have work to do myself<\>
Jack Von Regis POV
The Carriage has Come to a stop..
I was headed to the Imperial Castle of the Dmitry Family for the
Council Meeting that was held by all Seven Families once a year.
The Meeting is held in one of the Seven Family's Castle every year,
This time it is being held in the Imperial Castle of the Dmitry Family,
A Tall Castle with a vast compound,The Imperial Castle of the Dmitrys known as Castle-Black.
<\>Tsk....This place is as creepy as ever...<\>
<\>How can they live in a castle painted Black in and out,Talk about weird..keke<\>
This Castle was Built 20 years Ago after the 'War Of The First Kings'
Being the Weakest Imperial family then,The Dmitrys were easy target that their former fief was destroyed...
But not anymore....The Dmitrys Train and Produce The Greatest Assasins To ever be known in History,...Yes,They are a Family Most Specialized in Assassination.
As I headed inside I could already hear the voices behind the Tall Black door with the Design of a raven,The sigil of Dmitry-Imperium.
As the door opened,Three of the Imperial Family Lords were already seated.
I Took a Seat that was placed on one side of the Rectangular shaped Table that was in the Middle of the room,The room was Black-painted as other areas too..A Spot light that was lighted using a Rune Stone hung directly above the table....The room was enclosed and the windows covered with Tall Curtains that had some special magical effect in other to avoid the details of the meeting being leaked.
#N/b:A Rune stone is Magic stone that is collected after killing monsters,Most of them are just common magic stones that sell cheap while some are Special grade and Have Specific a functions with high magical affinity.The one used to light the room was common.#
"I Guess it's just us again this year,This is starting to be a pain" The One called the Great Sage,A Mage and the Lord of the Schmidt Family(Schmidt-Imperium),'Pisehf Schmidt' SAID
"Well it's Slowly becoming a norm,Hermes Razenshfeiht does have a Valid reason for being absent" Darna Greyson,The Imperial Lady of The Greyson Family(Greyson-Imperium) Was referring to the Current King of wesron,'The Omniscient of First Men,Hermes IV Razenshfeiht' of the Razenshfeiht Family(Raz-Imperium).
An Omniscient is A Special Title Given to anyone regardless of Status and Rank after they have reached the Peak of a specific Martial Arts,Sword Arts or Magic Arts.'The First Men' Reffered to the Ancient Magic Arts Said to be Used by the gods in Ancient times.
There are Currently 13 'Omniscients' In the World exempting the dead ones,
Wesron is Home to 3 Omniscients:
One,The Supreme Family's Lord,Imperial King Hermes Razenshfeiht:The Omniscient of The First Men.
Two,Chris El-Scanel,The Imperial Lord of The El-Scanel Family(El-Imperium):The Omniscient of Lightning.
And The Last is My Second child and My First Daughter,Rin Von Regis:The Omniscient of Fire.
"Well we will have to take it on with us since Chris El-Scanel and Collen Zanza of Zan-Imperium are Indefinitely absent" Alan Dmitry,The Lord of Dmitry-Imperium Said..
"Well Hermes Said He took an Envoy to Estonia as their Royal Family had invited him in order to discuss Information they had on the movements of the Demons..." I Said..
"Tsk...The Demon god is Dead and yet the Demon Kings are still make ominous moves...What are they planning" Darna Greyson Said
"HUHU...Who knows..We will have to Wait for Hermes to bring us News" The Great Sage Pisehf Said....He wore a white Royal Garment that had a Cape at the Shoulder,He had beard that covered most of his face and was in braids,His white Hair and Beard a stood out most amongst his Robust body.
"Well we will leave it at that and take up the Agenda we came here to discuss....The Complaints of the Commoners about the Sudden raise in tax" Alan Pointed out..
"Yeah...Let's begin the Meeting" I Pointed Out...
Ivar POV
That was a very refreshing Bath I just took.
My hair was bow glinting..
I Reached our Current Base,I had Planned to get a Change of Clothes from Stan if I reached...
But I was met with a rather suprising Sight....
"Ivar...Get behind me...."
I saw two bodies of Wolves on the ground..
We had been attacked by Ice Mountain Wolves and Stan already took out one....
"Leh..Get ready to Support me with a flame spell,They are weak to flames!" Stan Ordered as Leh Nodded to his command...
Shit....This is a pack of wolves roughly 20....Can we survive this.....
