Hey this will be a chapter about the Balar and Grum just to build the profile of each kingdom a little bit better, I would like to thank omnerabdator for pointing out a key element which I was starting to overlook. The_Fighting_God pointed out that Azyth is small he is pretty young so he will get a lot stronger and taller.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sir"! the Guard yelled panting with a pale face. "The party that was sent out was defeated by Azyth and the dragon is currently on the next to Newdell"! he said while gasping for air. "Very well strengthen the defenses around all villages surrounding Newdell" The king of Balar Phillis Lytton said as if he didn't care. "But sir what about sending troops to Newdell shouldn't we rescue the people in the village"? the guard asked. "No" a stern reply from Phillis "Those people are already done for...no reason to lose anymore lives over a couple of peasants" Phillis said. "Yes sir as you wish shall I inform the General to move out troops"? the guard asked. "Yes please do we need to do this with haste". The king said looking at the painting on the wall of humans fighting a dragon.
As the troops got equipped with all they need as they were about to spread out to the villages around where the dragon currently was. "Man wouldn't it be cool to fight a dragon" "Idiot we would all die in the first five seconds" "Not if we had enchanted gear like the division leaders". The group of soldiers looked at the division leader with hate. They were just rich nobles that had no fighting experience but bribed the king to get put far away from the action as they could. "Alright troops we are moving to Windbrook with all haste"! The soldiers groaned and got ready to move out for about a day away from the capital. "Why can't we get horses like the upper ranks we have to march all day while they just get to be lazy on a horse. "I don't know but stop talking I don't want to get in trouble.".
"King Azyth has started moving towards Balar" one of his subordinates said. "Good that will give us time to prepare for the upcoming assault". "Yes very good plan as expected of the very king himself". 'Bah people will do anything to gain a favor of a king' Francis thought while looking at his greedy subordinates. "Sir what should we do to prepare" asked another. "Get the priests to start enchanting as many of the weapons they can if they are tired switch them with all do haste". "Very well King".
"Did you hear we might get our weapons enchanted"! the soldiers were talking to each other. "Yeah but there is a dragon and we might have to fight it". "Yeah but the weapons will be enchanted won't we stand a chance"? "Maybe but the dragon is rumored to be a ruthless warrior that can swing his claws so fast that even a god might not be able to stand against it. "Everyone in divisions 1, 2, and 3 line up to get you weapon or shield enchanted. They will give you a choice of the enchant you want"
(Okay back to Azyth!!) As Azyth was taking a break after lifting most of the heavy stuff for repairs. He noticed Mary and asked her something "Mary I have been asleep for a very long time and have forgotten a lot of things would you mind to tell me the history starting around 100 years ago"? Azyth asked. "Okay It starts off as the last major attack from a red dragon that destroyed many villages was finally brought down by the corporation of the two kingdoms. (Major foul by me here but there are Elves and Beastmen and of course more dragons. After that a peace treaty was made for 90 years for the rebuilding and advancing in discoveries". Mary explained
Stolen novel; please report.
"In that time priests have discovered through the books of elves how to enchant armor and weapons but haven't discovered how to cast magic. With that began an arms race on what kingdom could get the most enchanted weapons. Those are now dubbed the Kingdom's Treasures for both kingdoms". Mary finished. 'Oh so Godly-Reaper was a treasure from Grum. "Has anyone picked up Godly-Reaper yet"? He asked Mary. "Umm I don't think so". "Very well can you ask Robert(Village leader) to come over here". "Sure" Mary said as she went out to find him. Only a minute later Robert came "Yes I picked up when we were cleaning up debris." Robert said. "Keep it in a safe place you may be able to get a large sum of money from Balar for it". Azyth told him. "Very well I will keep at my house under a board in our house".
"MARCH SOLDIERS" the Division leader yelled as rode on a horse while the soldiers were very tired. "Can't he keep his mouth shut riding on that horse." "Yeah". As they approached a village the Division Leader (Lets just call him Will) assumed was Moonclad. "What village is this"? Matt asked Robert. "This is Newdell sir. The soldiers stiffened up wasn't this village supposed to have a dragon on it? "Well for the inconvenience you caused me a demand slaves and money from you people" (yes Will is one of Those nobles you know the 'I'm better than everyone type so reward me')"B-But sir we don't have enough gold coins to give to you and support ourselves" Robert said. "Well what about this girl over there" He was pointing at Mary who wore a surprised look on her face. "She would fetch a fortune at the slave trader" Will said almost drooling on how much money he would get. He walked over grabbed her hand and was pulling her towards the division when he heard a roar.
Azyth stood up from behind the house and walked towards Will. The soldiers couldn't move due to the fear of dying. "Who is the leader here"? asked Azyth. No one talked so he just assumed it was Will. "Fight me and we shall see who gets to take Mary". Will was petrified. A dragon wanted to fight him. He couldn't move his body wouldn't let him. "Very well then here I come" Azyth simply said. No one saw the claw coming. Will couldn't understand what happned and frankly it didn't matter anymore because he was sliced in half. Mary who was almost crying ran to Allie who was crying because her sister was going to be taken away and she could do nothing about it. The soldiers just ran and screamed away to get away from the dragon.
As everyone praised Azyth he was wondering how to make contact with the elves to learn magic.
