In the end, Astlan and co. heads to the fairy continent with Yulan in tow. She was extremely happy that Mrothgir allowed her to travel with them.
Now she persistently asks Astlan and Camellia for a practice battle each day that even Helianthus is troubled by the young girl as she was too hyper to control. Olive and Mint naturally has another playmate and it made them happy as she was so energetic.
Because the Dragon Continent is vast, it took them a whole year on foot to travel towards the border of the fairy continent.
But they were able to meet so many people in such time. They grew as a person in each adventure and problems they solved together. Their bonds become unbreakable and they look at each other with utmost respect.
They don’t know it if because Astlan was the only man in the group but Yulan started showing affection towards him little by little as same as an awkward girl. Her approaches are painfully obvious but she herself isn’t familiar with love and Astlan is troubled on how to reciprocate both Camellia and Yulan’s feelings.
Not only that, since turning eleven, Mint and Olive started becoming persistent in sticking with Astlan all the time. They are the happiest when the top of their heads was patted and they start getting flustered if Astlan’s body touches them.
For Helianthus, she was neutral about what’s happening. She just watches everyone with gentle eyes.
She just witnesses Astlan’s growth.
She noticed how Astlan’s face becomes more handsome and how he gets even taller that she is just below Astlan’s chin. She also noticed that Astlan’s body is becoming firmer but muscularly lean. She also knows when Astlan will secretly get off.
It’s a miracle that he was able to hold himself back towards the group of girls he is with. It must be because he respects everyone’s will.
Consent from anyone in the group might make him a beast, though.
But nevertheless, she never saw, even once, Astlan getting angry. He is always kind and gentle to everyone. It might be one of his weaknesses but it’s overshadowed by his unending tolerance.
When they arrived at the fairy continent, they felt like they arrived at the land of dreams and fantasy.
The whole place is filled with various kinds of flowers and trees. There aren’t any stray monsters or such, only strong monsters with high intelligence which they do not attack passerby if they do not become hostile.
Flowers make it that the whole continent is covered with natural perfume so any bad odor doesn’t exist. There aren’t any paved roads or brick built houses or rather, it feels like civilization hasn’t reached this place yet.
It was really an awe-inspiring place. Even Camellia or Yulan has never been in such place. They feel like every stress and weariness in their body was steadily being washed away by the sight and ambiance alone inside the forest.
It was the smallest continent but it has the most abundant wild animals and edible plants for people to be self-sufficient.
The only problem is that…
“Hmm…we’ve been here for almost a week but…there are no signs of fairies showing. Are they shy?” Astlan asked towards Camellia.
“That might be it. I really never saw a fairy kin before so I don’t know. I read in some books that they are kind hearted and gentle creatures, they also specialize in healing magic. Maybe because of their attitude, disposition and usability are the reason they hide from basically from every race.” Camellia explained.
“By the way, My Master, do you have any plans in mind?” asked by Helianthus as she cuts in the conversation.
“Well, I’m thinking of settling here.” Astlan honestly answered Helianthus’ query.
“Ah! Sir Astlan, we are going to live here?!” Yulan exclaimed.
“Master, we are not going on adventures anymore?” asked by Mint.
“We are going to live together with Master, cuddling every day?” followed by Olive.
“Ahaha… I don’t know what to say…but… I want to settle here. This is a good place, as long as we get permission from anyone who is in charge but… finding them…might be really hard…” Astlan said as he looks around.
“Let’s keep looking around, then. We might find something.” Camellia said as she walks forward.
Everyone agrees to it and keep walking.
They wandered around the vast forest for another week but none of the fairies came to greet them but they were able to peacefully explore the place. They will hunt food and pick edible plants and fruits in moderation as to not actually anger anyone.
They weren’t aware that they are going deeper into the forest.
In the middle of the forest, they saw something unbelievable.
A large Mansion stands.
The land around it was built with stone walls and behind it, there’s a lake where you can catch an abundant of fish. The mansion was built with brick and stones but it was uncared for as plants and such started growing and crawling everywhere.
They entered the house and it has furniture to accommodate everyone but there are no one living inside or to be more precise, no is living in there anymore.
Dust flew over everywhere and webs covered the whole house.
This alone ticked Helianthus.
And so, their battle against dust and filths unfold as they take over the empty house and claims it as their own.
Clean here, clean there!
It took them a whole week to clean the house. They just have to burn any trash they see and Astlan was tasked to hunt for food while the girls engage in the cleaning.
It was a god sent that the mansion has a bathroom installed and it made all of the girls happy.
By the way, Astlan takes a bath in the river.
And so, the mansion was cleaned and everyone cried in joy. Everyone already has a room they want in their mind so they already decorated each and every room they liked.
And their very own first night in the mansion, they had a feast.
It was a miracle that they found a mansion in the middle of the forest but it was just asking to be used. So Astlan and co. now inhabited the empty mansion and turns it into a habitable place where they laze around all day.
After the feast, everyone went straight to their bed and sleep.
Except for Astlan.
He was staring at the starry night sky with a glimmer in his eyes.
“I never thought that… I have come this far after being summoned. I was indeed happier and… I am really blessed with everyone as they show how they feel for me… Honestly, how can I reciprocate everyone’s love…” he muttered to his self.
But Astlan has one problem and he thinks he can properly solve that problem now…
“This…raging erection of mine… Now that I have my own private room…I think I can properly... do it…” he said as he frantically looks left and right.
“I am really happy but… with all of them touching my body with theirs, it damages my sanity little by little. I knew it… I can’t do it with them…” he said as he slumps his shoulders.
Seeing that it was his opportunity, he was about to pull down his pants when...
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
“Uwah!?” he shouted.
“My Master, I want to have an important talk with you…or…is my timing bad?” Helianthus voice came over behind the door and startled Astlan.
“P-please, come in. I’m not really busy or anything!” Astlan shouted as he immediately fixes his pants
Astlan immediately covers his swelling manhood with a pillow. But it was for naught as Helianthus enters the room.
“Ah…” Astlan murmured to his self upon seeing Helianthus.
Wearing a purple with white lace negligee, the only thing that covered her body is a thin silk of robe. Her hair which is usually tied in ponytail hangs down up to her waist and most of all, the face that she usually wear in front of everyone isn’t there, in fact, she is showing a face of a maiden.
“My Master, I want to…discuss something with you.” she said as she approaches Astlan in the bed.
“Y-yes!” Astlan nervously said as his blood rushes to his brain membrane below becoming more enraged.
As Helianthus got closer to Astlan, she nonchalantly sat beside him at the edge of the bed. But she didn’t speak any words after that. She just stares at her thumbs that she fiddles repeatedly.
The room was enveloped with awkwardness. Astlan’s heart is pounding like a drum and sweat started invading his face. Since he couldn’t take it anymore, he tried to initiate the talk.
“Um…Helianthus…” Astlan timidly spoke but, he stops midway as she stares at him in the eye.
“My Master, won’t you tell me what do you desire?” she said bluntly.
“D-desire?! What do you mean?! Ahaha… i… I d-d-d-don’t quite get it…ahaha….” Astlan nervously spoke with broken words with a flustered face.
“My Master, do you plan to marry all of them? Do you want to copulate with each and everyone?” she asked desperately.
“Nah--! That’s…?!”
“My Master, I want to know how do you feel, towards them… and… to me…” she muttered as she hung her head.
“I… love everyone…but…I still think that…we need more time…I don’t know…it must have been just me…” Astlan spoke honestly towards Helianthus with a pained expression.
“Does…that include me…? She asked timidly towards Astlan’s response.
“What are you talking about?” Astlan asked back in confusion.
“Ah… I mean… my kind of body…is not in your preference after all. I mean… you do like younger girls, right?”
“That’s not it!” he exclaimed as he grabs Helianthus by the shoulder.
“My Master?!” Helianthus blurted in confusion.
“That’s not it, Helianthus…”
“So, you are saying that…you…also, like my kind of woman? I am…eight years older than you…and… I am often called hag…and…”
“Please don’t say anything further than that, Helianthus!” Astlan shouted to cut off Helianthus from her track.
“My Master…”
“I… love everyone, but…I think Helianthus is the one I want to embrace the most! Look! You made me like this!” Astlan blurted as he promptly removes the pillow that hid his bulged pants.
“Well…I’m sorry…I was trying to seduce you…but… I didn’t think it was this effective…” she apologizes as she stares at the bulge with blushing face.
Before she even realizes it, Helianthus was touching Astlan’s bulge and strokes it up and down. Astlan reacted to it and tried to muffle his voice from Helianthus’ actions.
Helianthus drops the think silk that covering her body and lay bare her modest breasts and her slim but curvaceous figure. Her smell mixed with a smell of sunflower entered Astlan’s nostril. Likewise, Astlan’s membrane let out a smell that made Helianthus excited.
They both stare at each other with pounding hearts and ragged breathing.
“Helianthus…may…I…embrace you tonight?” Astlan said, asking permission towards the woman in front of him.
“I permit it, My Mast--!” Her lips were stopped as Astlan put a finger in it making her quiet.
“Helianthus…I want you to call me by my name… because as of this moment, you are the one I chose. Will you?” Astlan asked with a gentle flustered smile on his face.
“Yes…! Astlan…!” Helianthus said with a sweet voice as she embraces Astlan.
And so, they engage in a romance-filled night, kissing and hugging and slamming at each other as their hearts blazes with love committed with each other. A night filled with sweet moans, fluids mixing with each other and hot and passionate gaze with each other while the moonlight shines upon the two as they have sex like beasts in heat.
“Buh…! I knew this would happen eventually but I’m still envious! Argh! I want to copulate with Astlan too!” Camellia complained towards Astlan and Helianthus who seated side by side during their lunch.
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
“Fufufu. You said when he turned eighteen didn’t you?” Helianthus said with a mocking laugh.
“Hmph! Astlan would literally do it with everyone here. It’s just a matter of time so don’t be cocky you old hag!” Camellia angrily shouted with frustration painted all over her face.
“Fufufu!~ Whatever you say!~” Helianthus brushes her comment off with a smug smile.
“Kiiiiiiii!” You really piss me off! Yulan, say something!” she asked Yulan for assistance.
“Congratulations!” Yulan said with a smile in her face while chewing.
“That’s not--! Haa…forget it…” Camellia muttered in defeat. “Well, I’ll be waiting for my turn when that day comes!” she strongly added emphasizing that she will also do it with Astlan at all cost.
“My Ma--! Astlan… is willing to embrace everyone. There are no needs for any worries. He will surely… bring happiness and warmth to all of us.” Helianthus said as she presses on her stomach, specifically where her womb is.
“I see…wait! Even my underling little sisters?!” she asked in haste.
“If they are willing to but, how I see it, they are quite attracted to him as well. Is there any problem with it?” Helianthus said as she stares at the two little girls who are quietly eating their lunch in peace.
“Wouldn’t that be…?!”
“At the right age, of course, Astlan will be punished if he ever gets the idea of doing it.” Helianthus sternly stare as Astlan who is quietly nibbling on his bread.
“Eh…?! Ah..?! Of course! How could I do it with such innocent little girls?!” Astlan said in hurry to defend his self.
Upon finding a place for them, they live their everyday lives in tranquility and peace. No one complained, in fact, it was what everyone wanted. Although they never stop training and performing magical experiment as such, there are abundant of resources around them.
At some point, Helianthus and Astlan had done it a couple more times and it pisses Camellia to no end. True to his words, Astlan never made any approach towards Mint and Olive as his own guilt would kill him.
But alas, they yearned to get out of the forest after a month and a half or specifically, go to a place where Camellia mentioned to have an abnormality, the Center Continent.
She said that that continent has an ominous seal at the very heart of the continent. A kind of seal that is trying to ward off something and she wants to investigate it for the reason to repel whatever might come from it.
“Are you sure about this Camellia?” Astlan asked.
“Yeah, I’m going to be fine by myself! “ Camellia asserted.
“Eh? That’s unfair of Camellia wanting to solo an adventure by yourself!” Yulan complained.
“This is not a game, Yulan. It’s something me and my father was keeping an eye on. I just know it. Something about that seal is dangerous. We better make any preparations in advance just to be safe.” she said as she emphasizes that danger it has.
“Well, that’s the more reason we should all go, right, Astlan?” Helianthus said as she looks towards Astlan.
“Yes! And I’ve been itching for some traveling!” he said with a smile.
“My little sister underlings?” Camellia looks at the two children who prepares themselves.
“Good to go!” exclaimed by Mint.
“Always ready!” followed by Olive.
“Hahaha! Then, we’ll leave by sunrise!”
And so, Astlan and co. made their way from the Rainforest of Healing towards the Center Continent.
They want to help Camellia, after all, she is someone important to everyone and what she is about to do is something that greatly relates to the safety of this world.
It didn’t take them long to travel.
They just have to buy a boat in one of the harbor city of the Dragon Continent which is located at the border.
Yulan could just fly there but she cannot carry everyone on her back so she suited herself with a leisure travel with everyone.
Their travel didn’t take much time.
For the duration of a month traveling by foot from the edge of the center continent and a travel by a week in the sea with a boat, they arrived at the place where Camellia marked.
There’s only one problem, though.
When they arrived, a man in a gallant armor was there with an army of unknown numbers.
He seems to be a human. With a black hair and brown eyes, he has really handsome features and reliable air in him.
As the man saw them, he quickly approaches Astlan and bows.
“Eh…?!” Astlan just muttered.
“Astlan, is he someone you know?” Camellia asked.
“No…I've never seen him before…” he answered back.
“Ah. My apologies, I am Eliot, a summoned hero like you, Sir Astlan.” the man, Eliot, introduces his self.
“Eh?! Really?! A summoned hero like me?!’ Astlan said as his eyes sparkle with joy.
“Yes. I’ve heard about your exploits from places to places in my journey too in my training. I never thought we’d meet in such place.”
“Ahahaha…That’s embarrassing…” he said as he scratches the back of his head.
“So, is these girls are your companions, Sir Astlan?” he asked as he peeks behind Astlan.
“Yes. We are here to investigate about the seal located here in the center continent!”
“Oh! What coincidence! We are also dispatched here to do the same, but…” Eliot paused.
“But…?”
“The seal has a portal in it and we cannot seem to enter. If we do, we will be sent flying. We tried casting magic or even hitting it but it didn’t even show any indications of breaking.” Eliot explained with a pained expression.
“Sir Astlan, would you help us out?” he added.
“That’s why we are here! Camellia, it’s fine right?” he said as he turns to look at Camellia.
“…Yes… there’s nothing wrong with it…I guess…” she timidly replied.
And so, they were brought to their encampment where more soldier and knights are gathered.
They were left to their own devices to discuss the plan further among themselves.
“It sounds fishy! I don’t like that guy one bit!” Yulan exclaimed.
“Hmm… we really don’t have a choice regarding it… he is also a hero like Astlan so he might be a bit helpful too…” Camellia stated as such.
They discuss such thing when suddenly, Helianthus threw up, for no reason.
“Helianthus!” Astlan shouted seeing Helianthus was in pain.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you, old hag?!” Camellia said with a worried expression.
“Ah, …it seems…that…” Helianthus spoke but paused…
“That?” Astlan urges her.
“I’m…already pregnant…” she embarrassedly said…
“Eh…?! E…?!” Astlan could only matter with widened eyes and uncontrollable grin.
“You are pregnant?!” Camellia could only hang her mouth.
The children and Yulan could only just smile at the news.
“Ahaha…I’m a…father…? Really…?! With Helianthus…?! That’s… a good news!” Astlan said as he shakily embraces Helianthus.
“Yes! It’s pretty late now…but…it seems I shouldn’t have come…” Helianthus said with a sad face.
“Yeah… it can’t be helped…we should have known it sooner but… after this…Helianthus… we will really settle for real…” Astlan spoke as he looks at her in the eyes.
“Hey! We better start copulating too, husband! I want to have your babies too!” Camellia protested.
“Ahaha… you’re too hasty…” he could only laugh.
With a happy mood, Astlan meet up with Eliot to venture closer to the seal, leaving Helianthus, Olive, and Mint behind.
“Sir Astlan, this is…the seal…” Eliot said as they stare at a large magic circle formation with overlapping circles with an inscription on it.
The seal gave a really ominous feeling and it’s packed with so much power. Astlan could feel two powers from it. One is the resisting energy from a malicious power and one i a divine-like power that akin to a god.
“I’ll try going inside.” muttered Astlan.
“Hey, Astlan!” Camellia exclaimed.
“Well, there’s nothing to lose if I try right?” he replied.
“That’s…”
“Eliot, is there anything you can say what’s inside this seal?” he asked the man in the armor.
“I’m sorry… I don’t have the slightest idea…” he apologizes.
“I see…then…I’m going to try…” Astlan said as he walks towards the seal.
As Astlan gets closer and closer, the seal itself…was opening letting him inside.
“Eh.?!” he muttered quietly under his breath as he was sucked in.
“Ah!” he shouted.
Astlan, who was sucked in by the seal, blacked out.
When he came to, he cannot believe what he saw…
A huge gate sealed with so many glowing blue chains and sealed inside a barrier made of thorns but that’s not all.
Around Astlan is like nothingness but, what he saw as his eyes adjusted to the dim place, he was… in outer space. Stars started illuminating the place and he can see unknown planets from afar.
What he was standing is a large bridge from the seal behind him and the large gate.
“What is this…?!” he said as he walks towards the gate.
After a few minutes of walk, he arrives at the front of the gate and tries to peer at the other side of the gate…
“UWAHH!” he stumbled back as he was surprised by what he saw.
Creatures he never saw before beings that have evil as its core and appearance. It was something out of this world that shivers were sent to his spine. All of them are trying to break the gate.
Astlan slowly walks back with fear enveloping his heart.
“If this is what the seal is for, then it’s best to leave it alone…” he thought to himself as he walks back towards the seal to get out of that place.
Before entering the seal again, he glances again at the gate and left.
Astlan is a kind and gentle man who would never hate anyone. In fact, he will try to understand them before judging them.
His anger is nonexistent and his tolerance is limitless. He never fails to smile even in the face of the problem.
But that attitude, value and everything about him will instantly change right now.
“What…” he muttered under his breath…
“Welcome back, Sir Astlan! We are very sorry to inform you but we got too excited and started the party!” Eliot said with an evil grin on his face.
“H-Hey… what---…” Astlan words won’t come out.
“You see…you’re girls…were really fun to play with!” Elio stated while mocking Astlan.
What is Astlan seeing right now?
Camellia sprawled on the ground with spears and sword piercing her lifeless body. Her clothes were torn and her horns were even cut off. Her eyes are still wide open in desperation even though she is no longer breathing. Blood and tears mixes in her face
Yulan’s body, even though lifeless, was still being violated by the soldiers that were together with Eliot. Her throat was cut and her limbs were mangled. Like Camellia, her body is bathing in her own blood.
As for Olive and Mint…
Their heads were decapitated and hung atop of a pole. Their body is being burned underneath it.
And Helianthus…
“A-Astlan…!” she weakly cried towards him.
“HELIANTHUS!” Astlan screams as he runs towards her in desperation.
BAM
Eliot kicked the defenseless Astlan and sent him flying.
Helianthus was crawling on the ground as swords and spears pierce her body.
“ARGH! E-Eliot! Why?!” he asked Eliot with tears running on his cheeks.
“Astlan…! Run…! Please…” Helianthus said as she extends her arms to him gesturing him to leave.
“Eliot! I can still save her!” Astlan shouted.
BAM
“Are you an idiot?” Eliot said with a mocking tone.
“Don’t you see? There’s nothing you can do about it.” he added as he walks towards Astlan and…
SHICK!
Pierces his shoulders, deeply planted on the ground.
“ARGH!!” Astlan screamed.
“Astlan!” Helianthus called out to his name.
Eliot just laughs at the scene. He walks towards Helianthus who was still screaming Astlan’s name. As he did, he stabs another sword right into her face, completely killing her.
“Ah…! No…! No..! No…!!!!” Astlan flails his body, trying to free his self from the swords.
“NO!!! WHY??!!” Astlan asked Eliot.
Astlan tears spill endlessly and his chest tightens. His mind becomes weary and his vision blurs. His memory with everyone flashes back in his mind.
Why did such thing happen to them?
What did he do for this to end up abruptly like this?
“Why? Sir Astlan, you are indeed famous. That godly relic of yours, that is.” Eliot said as he drew his face closer to Astlan.
“What…do you mean?!”
“It’s a sword that should be mine! I do wonder how it became yours, someone incompetent and idiotic. This is actually a trap set up by the king. We actually headed to the demon continent… with this million of army, that is.” Eliot said as he grabs Astlan by the hair.
“For that… you…you…!”
“It’s was the best you know!~ Killing the daughter of the demon lord before she reigns over, killing potential enemies before they get stronger. It was really convenient, I have to thank you, Sir Astlan.”
“NO! NO! NO! NO! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO KILL CAMELLIA! YULAN! MINT! OLIVE! AND EVEN HELIANTHUS!? WHY?! WHY?!” he screams at the top of his lungs.
“Why I wonder? Because…to break you, I guess?” Eliot said as he grins widely.
“What….”
“We want to have a sole possession of that godly artifact of yours that you hid from King Geydvor. We will use it to suppress the other races and reign supreme! We just might have to forcibly extract it from you. If we can’t…well, we can also brainwash you.Ahahaha!” Eliot said with sadistic laughter.
“Just…for that…for that…everyone… everyone…” Astlan said repeatedly.
“Oh, it seems you already broke…how anticlimactic.” He said as he drags Astlan by pulling his hair.
“Everyone…everyone…everyone…”
He loves Mint and Olive.
They were obedient and they also love Astlan. Their smile warms him up and he also broke into a grin whenever these two is together with him. Their cuteness that uplifts him never fails to make him feel fluffy.
He loves Camellia.
The demon in the guise of a little girl is haughty and impish. She can easily be embarrassed broke into tears when being teased. She always clings to Astlan saying that she wants to copulate with him. She was adorable to the point that it makes Astlan’s heart skip a beat.
He loves Yulan.
The dragon girl who follows him as a mentor at first but quickly fell in love with him. She was an air head and a battle maniac. She loves training with Astlan and likewise, Astlan enjoyed being with her. She is overly energetic but fun to be with. Someone Astlan doesn’t mind embracing.
And lastly, He loves Helianthus.
The woman who was with him right from the start, whether in his happy or sad moments she will always be there for him. A woman with stern and strict policies but capable of every chore and among everyone, she cared for Astlan the most. Her love blooms intensely towards Astlan but she still prioritizes her duty and gave way for Camellia and Yulan but in the end, she was the first woman Astlan embraces. She is also pregnant with Astlan’s child.
Astlan’s mind tried to escape reality and daydreamed that everything was okay until…
“Soldiers, clean up these trashes,” Eliot said towards the soldiers enjoying themselves.
Garbage…
As Astlan heard those words, it echoed inside his mind.
Something snapped inside of him.
His humanity…
“Unforgivable…unforgivable…I WON’T FORGIVE YOU!!!” Astlan shouted as a power in a form of black mist envelopes him.
His heart lost its gentleness and kindness.
His timid personality took a turn and he becomes enraged.
The anger that he thought he doesn’t have, erupted.
Anger!
Malice!
Hatred!
Sorrow!
And…Wrath…
Every emotion mix inside him and turn into a fury of power that it shook the heaven and earth. It parted the clouds and seas and covered the sky with his power as dark as his emotion.
Astlan tears up with blood and shouted towards the sky.
“THE HELL WITH WATCHING OVER ME! THE HELL WITH GIVING ME YOUR BLESSING! FUCK YOU ALL! CURSE YOU! EVERY SINGLE GOD OUT THERE! I RESENT YOU TO THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!” he shouted towards the sky.
The gods and goddesses felt his wrath and feared him as his power accumulates to a level where he can kill them. They became cautious of the unexpected existence that was brought in this world. It was that kind of power that shook them as his rage rampages the world.
The godly artifact Excelsior parted from him as it cannot bear Astlan’s power any longer.
Instead, two swords manifested in his hand and slowly…the black mist shrouds Astlan’s body turning into a dark armor with blood red outlines. The greaves, the gauntlets, the thigh armors and everything is greatly detailed with metallic spikes curving out and steel dyed in scarlet color the glows brightly.
His face, however, is covered with a helm the covers everything except his mouth, which now depicts anguish.
And lastly, what appeared behind Astlan was…a blood red insignia.
Astlan lost himself in sadness and hatred.
“Helianthus…guh…Mint…Olive…Camellia…Yulan…” he cried over and over.
“What the hell…you… you monster…!” Eliot shouted. “All men prepare to intercept!” he shouted towards the soldiers.
Not minding the soldier preparing to attack him, Astlan just walks towards the body of the lifeless girls.
One by one, he picks them up and fixes them tattered, full of holes body and lined them up with each other. Even the decapitated little girl’s bodies were fixed.
But, they no longer have life in them.
Astlan turns around towards the army.
And begin his genocide.
Overnight, the Geydvor City was burned down to nothingness. Not only that, city and towns nearby it were also destroyed
Even the normal citizen like men, women, elderly or children was mercilessly killed.
The king was nowhere to be found.
Astlan granted the king an undying death as he covered him with flames that will endlessly melt him but will also endlessly heal his body and threw him out of the sea.
The king’s daughter was tortured by Astlan.
Pulling out her tongue and putting it back.
It was the same as her innards. Whenever she loses consciousness, Astlan will bring it back with his power and torture her again. He will repeat the process of cutting her limbs and fix it again. Astlan will gouge her eyes out and put it back.
He will place it inside her mouth and make her chew it and restore it again.
He pulled all of her teeth and nails and restores it.
The torture lasted for a month until Astlan threw her out of the sea like what he did to her father.
The reason?
She was the one manipulating Eliot. She discovered that Astlan was leading a happy life with so many girls from the reports, she got furious and jealous.
So naturally, she got the longest torture time, longer than Eliot.
What happened to Eliot’s army?
Sea of human carcasses scattered at the center continent and left to rot.
But to Astlan, unknowingly, his rampage caused a crack in the seal.
And then, Astlan painfully buried everyone in a part of Fairy continent.
Five people who he loves dearly…dead…
Even with all what he have done, his wrath didn’t settle one bit.
His heart just becomes colder and colder as he weeps in front of their graves. He weeps tears and eventually, it becomes blood.
He just sat there, weeping and regretting that he should have done something better. He weeps at his own stupidity of not knowing when to be angry like what Helianthus would always lecture him.
He refreshes in his mind of how Camellia, Yulan, Olive, and Mint would cling to him.
But it didn’t bring any relief. Je just brought pain to himself.
He weeps unendingly for god who knows how many years. Maybe ten…or even hundred… he continuously weeps himself, wishing to die but he became so strong that he didn’t even age and he didn’t even notice the passing of time.
And that’s how Astlan’s Ira rampages the world and dyed it in black and red.
A carriage travels down the road and burly men guard it.
The content of the carriage with bars are slaves.
Among the slaves, there’s a one little girl holding her knees as she sits.
She was an elf.
One of the older women talks to her.
“Hey, what happened to you?” she asked.
“I was…captured…” the little elf girl answered back.
“Duh…that’s obvious…we are going to be slaves, you know?” the older girl said.
“Fueh?!” exclaimed by the little girl.
“Haaa…well for someone young like you, I bet you’ll live in a better place as you’ll get higher bids.”
“Eh…?!”
“Well, nice meeting you…even for a short time. What’s your name, little girl?” the older woman asked.
“Um…Hinoki…Hinoki Prasiolite.” The girl said.
