The Far East Region's Decisive Stage

"Move!!" Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp...!

After receiving new orders from her superior official, Blauw Ishikyy wielded her Earth grade trident. She immediately walked to lead them at the front and shouted. Her words traveled to their ears and minds via their medallions. Her troops, in her tank or armored cars, took the vanguard and charged towards the second enemy barrier of the day while the cultivators directly exited them. The citizen stayed behind as a couple tanks stopped in one place before slowly advancing forward. It was slightly faster than before but still slow.

Pum! Pum! Pum! Ta rarara- rarara- rarara! Pshift~! Pshift~~! Pshift!

Blauw Ishikyy’s brightest aquamarine, azure eyes looked ahead. Enemy artillery fire reflected on them. Some detonated by the anti-missile turrets, but most landed around her and her charging troops. The rest of the force she was part of followed after her, but the more than a hundred soldier units under her command had their array formation active, protecting them from the slightest remnants of the nearby explosions.

“Halt!” The enemy artillery guns kept firing at them, but Blauw Ishikyy stopped her unit and immediately concentrated her Water manipulation and Neutral Energy to flow towards her right wrist, and surge into her Earth trident. The rest of the Imperial Guards around her crouched and circulated their Neutral Energy while Blauw Ishikyy slowly lifted her right arm, with her left hand already wielding her Colorful Claw.

Pshiii- booom- iiifft~! Blauw Ishikyy’s elbow spiked up as an azure-scaled tail projected from her rear, forming a 2 meters length and arching to her left. The moment it appeared, her right arm was covered in the same azure scales, like a dragon, and her claws perfectly held her weapon. Water particles condensed into a fiery of liquid layers around the trident, especially its pikes, as it was seemingly enlarged but only by the Water technique.

Behind her, from half a step to a meter, the Imperial Guards started converging their Neutral Energy and aiming it at their Mortal polearms, ready to launch an attack together as their tanks kept firing and their armored cars kept advancing. Then, Blauw Ishikyy knitted her eyebrows and opened her lips twistedly, immediately showing her fangs and a fierce face despite the cutest brightness of her eyes. And she threw the trident as if she wanted it to reach the energy walls.

Pshiiiiiiift! -pshiiiiiiiiiiiiiiffftt~~!~!~!

The Earth trident’s image exploded forwards in a straight, horizontal direction. Its aim was none other— but the center of the barrier’s weak spot, and it traveled faster than any of the soldier units on the battlefield. Its shape was shrouded with Water element as it zoomed in the distance, but it didn’t decrease despite the wind standing against it. Instead, the Water elemental part of this technique became sharped and more defined as it passed through the air like it was absorbing its surroundings.

Behind it, the shape of polearms made of Neutral Energy flew interconnected. A link attached them from the other end of their shafts, creating a whitish, transparent energy net with polearms leading the way under their general, the trident shape covered in Water element. But Blauw Ishikyy, left behind by her weapon, still held her Earth trident, only that a bullet of sweat streamed down her left temple, and her lips gasped a little.

… fwwssh- whistleeeeeeeeee~ POO- BOOOOOONG~- PSHIFT- BAAAAANNNGG~!

The trident flew through the air. Water element flashed and fluctuated up and down around it, leaving a contrail behind as a tiny, thin dragon that grew infinitely longer the more it flew. The Neutral Energy polearms behind it gained momentum and speed. They quickly caught up and even surrounded the trident, filling the space around it in a moment’s worth notice. As the trident became surrounded, its Water element spread, eventually sharing its properties with the other polearms.

The sight of the polearms and tridents immediately changed, becoming like a dragon that took shape and started flying towards the enemy energy wall. The enemy cultivators on the other side looked at the situation outside and became baffled, but they couldn’t do anything other than steeling their resolve. Even then, the Water dragon gained more and more volume as it flew and extended over the space more.

All this happened in less than 10 seconds, as Blauw Ishikyy was only 10 kilometers from reaching the enemy energy wall, and the speed of the trident and its polearms only increased when they became one. An azure dragon made of Water element was created, and it fluctuated a little before ‘noticing’ its target. It had 2 whiskers that seemed like tentacles and a pair of immensely bright eyes.

It halted its movements but didn’t stop moving. A second later, it drove its head down and rushed faster than before towards the barrier! The enemy only saw a blurred, blue shadow zoom towards them before a severe explosion blasted at their walls! The ground shook, but only a little. Yet, what took their attention away from the fluttering of their clothes despite their energy wall growing cracks and fluctuating everywhere was the dragon’s image before them as its features slowly dissipated. But, they couldn’t forget one thing… It seemed alive and looked at them as if exactly knowing who they were. It was almost a primordial fear!

“Dammit! Look!” - “No way…!” - “I can’t… believe this!” The enemy cultivators watched as bodies of Water in the shape of tubes and cables formed where the cracks appeared and traveled to the sky, arching towards the other, immediately nearest, weak spots of their energy wall. But before they could see more through the Empire’s actions and this one particular force’s dominating move, an artillery shell found its way exactly to the middle of the web crack, exploding it into shards.

Whiiiistleeee- BOOOOM! CRRASSHHHH~! Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…!

“!” However, before the enemy cultivators could recuperate from the series of shocking commotions, the broken energy wall was infested with Imperial Guards! Leading the infestation was a pretty, cutest young girl with a tall frame, wielding a mightier weapon, so it could only be an Earth grade marvel. As for the claw gauntlet in her left hand, considering she was using an Earth grade trident, it could only be an Artifact!

Once again, before the enemy cultivators could react to this unmistakable call to face the Empire’s forces off and deal them heavy blows already, they were overwhelmed by the young girl’s face, as it was the first every enemy cultivator witnessed from the other side. She strode forwards, taking long leaps, and rapidly arrived before 1,000 lined-up enemy cultivators fearlessly.

Blauw Ishikyy swept her Earth trident once, and the sound of the incoming Imperial Guards behind her muffled as the Water element rushed forwards into the enemy’s ranks in a blade, cutting through the armors and bellies, chests of hundreds of enemies. Not everyone died, but they became partially immobile, at the very least. In the next second, dozens of light blue beams shot from the outside with great precision. The first cultivators reached by that beam, critically injured by Blauw Ishikyy’s actions, immediately died, giving rise to at least another death from the enemy cultivators behind them.

Pshift~!- Pew! Pew! Pew! Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Clank, clank, clink…!

Another battle had commenced, and Blauw Ishikyy’s ‘unique’ force rapidly entered the enemy’s den. They started harvesting heads and destroying Dantians and Psychogenics with their energy attacks, rifles, and Water elemental techniques. Blauw Ishikyy never stopped moving, leaping over the enemy and lightly moving her Colorful Claw to graze against their heads and hair, cutting their brains and sending Neutral Energy to stun them while Water particles acted like poison, killing them slowly and painfully.

Even those from the Blue Emirate Grotto, Wyrm Lord Nation, and the True Dragon House weren’t exempted from dying from her poisoning. Despite their knowledge about the Water element, especially the traitorous True Dragon House’s followers, Blauw Ishikyy’s method was far too advanced. Even if she used Water particles of lower qualities and limited her manipulation, the way she did it alone was enough to melt the inside of their skulls.

Whenever she landed in a new zone, surrounded by enemies and already recognized, Blauw Ishikyy would land on an enemy’s shoulders, forcing their bodies onto the ground while mashing their limbs and chest to mush. Although she wanted to do that to their heads, she failed most of the time and landed on their shoulders instead. Following this, she rode the wind with her arms, holding the trident from whichever position and dancing in between the enemy’s bodies when she was at their level and corpses when she was dragging her body through the ground.

Her every move was in response to the enemies around her, to dodge and immediately attack, counterattack, and plan for the successive massacring technique to continue with. The top 5 organizations had spread their forces everywhere to make time and deplete the Empire’s forces. Thus, Blauw Ishikyy couldn’t find someone to stop her unless something similar to the day of the True Dragon House’s fall happened.

However, she also moved on with her instincts and teachings, punching a face into smithereens or clawing at it with the azure or Colorful Claw while her other arm wielded her precious trident. She didn’t need to remember or go through the reminiscence of her personal Imperial Teacher to do this, only an enemy to smash into bits and liquid. The usual Water drake would appear with her eyes glowing strangely and a wave of her right azure claw, giving rise to a living hell to the enemy, sowing desperation for being unable to do anything to stop this seemingly young monster.

Blauw Ishikyy and her soldier units continued advancing, finishing the enemy off in under half an hour, immediately breaking the enemy’s defenses on their allocated weak spot. However, after she glanced around once, she noticed the rest of the weak spots were long breached through, and most battles were finishing with more or less a mediocre casualty rate. Her soldier units were growing tired, as they and every other Blauw Empire soldier unit fought with everything they had, even when they felt weak or reasonably confident. The sight of the enemy’s faces returned them to the teachings that each of their ancestors had fought to the death against them and even perhaps nearly went extinct.

That was enough to ignite them, to remind them… to keep going. And as Blauw Ishikyy changed her brightest, cutest, and now bloodthirsty eyes towards the 3rd enemy barrier, they became comprehensively silent. Then, she looked back at her people again and said as her voice became slightly louder and more emphatic with each spoken word. “Have you had enough?... Have you listened to them die… enough?! Do you not want more?! Can’t you do more?!!”

Blauw Ishikyy’s words kept the atmosphere silent, and it wasn’t difficult for the nearest other Empire units to hear them. Blauw Ishikyy continued after turning around to face her troops, “I see the look in your eyes. I like that answer. Now, I will only say it once. You are one unit, together… so your answer can only be unanimous. So, do you want to take one more?”

“Huaaaa!!” - “Huaaa…!!” - “Hiaaa…! - “Huaaa…”

“!!” Blauw Ishikyy’s eyes widened when she heard other units after her troops shouted in agreement without even needing to look at each other for confirmation, including the tired citizens whose Souls were trembling. She looked left and right quickly, feeling slightly embarrassed, but those units’ officials didn’t seem to mind and even looked at her as if waiting for whatever action and order she gave. With her head low, Blauw Ishikyy mentally asked her dear mother and teacher for strength before raising her chin, and her eyes became deadly serious.

“Then charge!!” Her voice was still girly and barely growing womanly, but the hoarseness and weight put into it granted her several heroic points in the Empire’s forces’ eyes as they stomped their right or left foot on the ground. Blauw Ishikyy rapidly turned around and moved into the enemy territory as her troops followed immediately after. The citizen soldier units waited for the armored cars to get them while the cultivators entered the others and some tanks.

Wwwhoooshh, vroooooomm… rrrrggghghhhhhghhh~... Armored helicopters, cars, motorbikes, and cars moved towards the next enemy defensive line. The energy wall behind her had long dispersed, but some tanks and helicopters were slightly confused before immediately rushing after the Empire’s army. They didn’t question anything, and the Generals didn’t remind them of their plans, so the troops went ahead and started besieging the third energy wall of the day.

With their current morale and the thrill of consecutive victories, with the vivid images of one of their Battleships sinking, the Empire’s ground forces held the higher ground and charged at the third energy wall, fearlessly waiting for their unique forces to wreak havoc everywhere before going all-out inside and supporting the tired, elite of the elite-like troops. While Blauw Ishikyy’s troops were alone, the other sides had several working together. All the responsibility fell on her. Thus, how could she not feel honored to win all that pride for herself, the Empire, and her dear ones?

… Away from the Empire’s inland territory, close to the Blue Emirate Grotto’s sea territory, where skirmishes and light bombardment flew from one place to another by the Frigates and Destroyers of both sides. Heian Ciemnosc, Empress Shuna, and the Generals looked at the maps and several points of view before looking at each other. Shuna hid her little smile while Heian Ciemnosc nodded at them and spoke to direct them.

“That is well. The kids need something to step on for what’s to come. Let them have this extra victory, but immediately rest afterwards. Most of their storage is emptied, and the armored cars are being blown too much. Force them to 1 day of rest before resuming. Afterwards, let them continue until they’ve realized and found ways to improve. That is also up to you, Generals.” Heian Ciemnosc finished his speech by pointing his left index finger at them with a casual yet indifferent, pale expression.

“Yes, sir!” - “We understand, thank you!” The Generals bowed before returning their whole concentration to their army. They understood Heian Ciemnosc was too busy to direct the war itself— and that his presence here, along with their venerated Empress, was a rare thing but had to be done. This was too important. It marked the change of heavens in all history of the Far East Region! How could this not be easily one of the most momentous events in the Blackotia Kingdom?!

“Continue working, and from now on, be harsh on the promotions. It’s time to let them suffer. As for you, keep your guard up and feel good about this day for winning, but for the next months, you’ll be busy calculating more resources and manpower needed than thinking about victories and the losses the Empire is bearing to win at any cost. As long as it is reasonable and worthy of our name, blood, and history. Understood?” Heian Ciemnosc added, becoming really damn serious at the end of his words.

“... Yessir!!” The Generals were baffled, but not for long. They responded swiftly and bowed towards Heian Ciemnosc again before repeating the motion at the Empress. Shuna nodded and turned around after seeing the Generals become worked-up at Heian Ciemnosc’s words. She took her leave with him, entering his Ornament and heading towards the Palace. The Generals didn’t think much of it. The assigned supervisor’s unique Fighter was the fastest they’d ever seen. It was a luxury to ride it.

Peew- whooosh! The Ornament left, leaving the Generals to analyze the ongoing battle. Although they didn’t have a stupid-ass Spirit Sense like Heian Ciemnosc, their medallions gave them information on the general state of their troops. It was a huge load of information being processed, but for Hana-Saga realm cultivators like them… this was nothing.

The current situation wasn’t a secret, and it was known by every living being putting their attention on the Far East Region that it was the deciding point where the war would end, and the results could only end as a deal struck between the Empire and the top 5 organizations… or complete domination. Either way was shocking. The Empire had been a bag that the top 7 organizations beat for so long that their ‘uprising’ was both fitting and impossible.

… In the Ornament, Shuna leaned on her man, letting her head rest on his neck as she closed her eyes, wanting them to repose on his pale skin, slightly warming her with a fresh coldness. His body was just unique, and so was his talents in everything. It was difficult to find something not well practiced within Heian Ciemnosc. She was even conquered over the years. What else could she feel or say? However, her mind was half-taken by the matters at hand.

“Is it really okay to let the army go for another round? What if something happens?” Shuna was worried. She had done what Heian Ciemnosc did with the Fleets but still felt too worried for the inland soldier units. Not only because her daughter was there, which was a huge part of her worry, but because the Empire had an unwritten rule to never again attempt to take land in their Region. It was humiliating, but it was also something that was accepted long ago.

“They won’t suffer, not for now,” Heian Ciemnosc said. He calmly continued while parking the Ornament outside a public hangar. He stood up and opened the cabin, respectfully helping her up and out of the Fighter. “Right now, our ground forces and navy are still affected by the loss of our Battleship. Even I was surprised. To think the enemy would be good and dumb enough to let another Fleet go down just do that. Sometimes, even I overestimate people.”

“Mn,” Shuna walked beside him to their usual meeting place. Her eyes were slightly narrow and looked damn finely beautiful. Heian Ciemnosc continued as his dark coat seemed to stand out more than ever. “That will slowly rise in this last stage of the war. But we aren’t looking to ‘talk’ with the enemy. What’s with safety if it isn’t guaranteed by only us? As their hearts grow stronger, they will realize they aren’t cultivators only. Not anymore. They are the Empire’s reason to exist. And then, Shuna, the world will see the Blackotia Kingdom rise after a long slumber.”

“...” Shuna looked at her man with her chin up, already in her throne room and past the closed gates. Her hands slowly found their way to his shoulders and then to his neck. The brown of her skin exquisitely contrasted with his pale skin, and Heian Ciemnosc looked down at the wandmazing beauty, slightly shorter than him, when she moved her lips and started smelling so nice…

“To your bed, I need to please my man,” Shuna said. Before she could half-blink, when her eyes were just about to see dark for half a moment, she felt the darkness around her blink in and out of existence before reappearing in Heian Ciemnosc’s bedroom. When she opened her eyes, he was there, waiting for her. She climbed up his body and slowly pushed him on his bed backwards.

“Woah? What happened to your Empress aura? Is it gone now?” Heian Ciemnosc said with a light, sultry tone but still sounding manly enough. Shuna didn’t say anything as she felt their bodies fall down and smiled at him. Heian Ciemnosc became dizzy at the sight of her face being tender and affectionate. It was rare for her to act submissive, subservient, and basically like a gentle, docile, horny perfect wife. As such, he shut up before he fucked it up and enjoyed the ride~.
