(Azrael's perspective)

Damn warrior... How dare you... hurt me like this...

I could see how my abdomen was bleeding non-stop, I could touch my damn blood... How annoying, the regeneration was not working.

She managed to pierce my last heart...

I don't have much time, I have to do it before I die.

With this last effort I will condemn this damned camp.

I got ready to release my most powerful curse, originally it would cost me my life but I'm going to die anyway, so I don't care, these beings must die for a greater cause.

With the little strength I had I began to pronounce the curse.

Shadow of Nyx, through the dark night, release the bonds, release power to cleanse the light from the darkness, to fly towards freedom.Deliverer from darkness, I will deliver you!

This curse has two effects, the main effect is that in exchange for my life I obtain the power of a superior Demon from the Underworld, and the secondary effect is that every living being within a few kilometers will be weakened, the curse interferes with their magic and energy internally, they will become simple ants before me.

A sphere enclos me and isolat me from the world around me, I was in a kind of dream world, I saw a demon in front of me, he approached and with his hand formed a star on my chest.

Demon: Behold, power beyond your dreams, mortal. You will dominate the elements you desire, you will reign over the creatures you desire and you will achieve what you so ardently desired. All these will be yours, for your eternal soul and the sacrifice of your humanity.

I began to receive the power of the Demon, I could feel it entering my being... But there was something strange, my body did not respond, it began to move on its own.

Demon: Humans have always been tricksters, don't worry, I will carry out your very will... I will destroy them all as you wish, so just sleep forever.

The Dark Sorcerer realized his mistake upon listening to him, the Demon had deceived him.

Azrael: Ah... I guess Vespera was right... I shouldn't have broken our own rules...

Before he could think about anything else, the Demon destroyed Azrael's soul with his own hands and took his body to leave the underworld, however despite having a human vessel he had to fulfill his part of the pact, the Dark Sorcerer's wish. Kill all living beings in the camp.

The sphere that isolated the Dark Sorcerer's body began to shatter until it broke, and a red being with large wings emerged from it.

His mere presence made everyone who looked at him feel afraid.

(Demon's Perspective)

How good it feels to return to the mortal world... Although there is something strange... I don't feel the same magic of the kingdom... What is this place?

It doesn't matter later I will have time for that, for now I will feed on these beings while I fulfill the pact.

I landed on the ground and started my little feast, first I killed the beasts that were in my way, the only thing they did was waste my souls, I took a warrior with head armor and started extracting his soul, the other warriors shot me and they attacked but their measly attacks didn't even hurt me... Has humanity become so weak? How strange, I remember that they were able to put up a good resistance.

Without wasting time in my mouth I created a great flame and burned them all, through my flames I took their souls, little by little I was recovering my power.

I visualized a warrior wounded in the shoulder dragging a wounded warrior in armor. Were they demi-humans...? No, one of them was an Elf, the other was a feline demi-human, her races have always been annoying since ancient times, a shame that they do not have the required potential.

I approached them and shot a large flame at them, but the demi-human blocked my flames with an object that formed a magical shield. What kind of object is that? I don't remember ever seeing that objects could do such complicated magic in an instant.

However, I approached and with one blow I broke it, when I was about to take the demi-human something pierced me from the back... I felt that my power was not working correctly, Impossible, what kind of weapon in this field would affect me? thus?

I made a quick movement and knocked out the warrior who stabbed me, another semi-human, this time she was black, I think she belongs to the werewolf race, my brother made a pact with them millennia ago...

I took the sword and pulled it out.

So a holy sword... What is this doing here? I guess I'll have to interrogate those demi-humans, I took the unconscious one and headed towards the feline demi-human who was still dragging the body of the Elf warrior.

When I was about to grab her by the neck, someone stopped my hand... The warrior who was being dragged a moment ago stopped me... I tried to move my hand but I couldn't... What? Is this Elf warrior stronger than me? I tried to get away but I couldn't.

There shouldn't be beings capable of surpassing me in strength and power in this place... Out of nowhere I began to feel an overwhelming aura.

It can't be... Only one being has this aura...

I threw the semi-human that I had in my hand away and then I ripped off my arm that was being held by that Elf and I flew out of that place as fast as I could, when I felt that I was going far away, I looked at where that Elf was before.

I met his gaze... Oh... How bad...

A great dark power reached the Demon, he could not even see when he was thrown and he lost his entire body, his head began to fall as he disintegrated little by little.

That power had been so destructive that part of the clouds became corrupted and covered a large part of the sky turning a dark purple tone.

Demon: That damned Sorcerer... I release the seal of that monstrosity by casting that curse... This world is doomed...

After that, the head of the Demon that was falling began to burn with purple flames and disappeared.

(Robert's perspective)

I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a clear place, I could see the sun illuminating the entire landscape, I looked to the side and in the distance I could see a kind of small place to have a picnic, it had a roof and under it there was a table with two chairs, it had no windows or anything, it only looked out into the open air, there was someone on one of the chairs.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

What was this? How did I get here? Am I dead?

If so, I won't deny that it is calmer than I thought, life after death... I don't remember very well the last thing that happened.

I think I was hit along with Artemis... I can't remember anything else.

I decided to get up from the grass, from here I couldn't see who the person was sitting in that small place, I decided to walk towards that strange place.

Every step I took made me feel at peace, the simple act of breathing felt good, I don't remember the last time I felt comfortable like this, but I feel good just existing.

I walked for a while until I reached the table that was under the open-air roof.

There was a woman looking into space, her expression reflected melancholy, maybe she was worried about something, or she was resigned who knows, sadly I didn't study psychology to be able to understand people at first glance with their different expressions.

Unknown: Who... are you? How did you get here? Shall I send you that disgusting being?

Robert: Don't worry, I don't know what I'm doing here and I don't know who you're referring to, my name is Robert.

Unknown: Robert? What a strange name. How did you get here?

Robert: I was hit next to someone and I don't remember much else...

The woman put her hand on her chin as if trying to understand the situation, it seemed like she had been in this place for a long time.

I had so many things to think about but for some reason I just wanted to be like this for a moment.

Robert: Hmm... And what's your name?

The woman came out of her thoughts and spoke to me again.

Unknown: I'm Laelyn.

Now that's a strange name.

Robert: How long have you been in this place Laelyn?

Laelyn: Who knows, maybe millennia or hundreds of years, I have no idea.

Ahh... I'm getting confused, like what millennia? Time doesn't move here? or how it works in this space.

When I was about to ask my barrage of questions she spoke.

Laelyn: I think I understand the situation a little, most likely you don't, and most likely you don't remember everything we're going to talk about, so pay attention we don't have much time. A being is using you in a way that we don't would you believe...

Out of nowhere the world began to shake, and the ground began to slowly destroy itself.

Laelyn: Damn... You must remember that you should never give in to him, you must fight and recover the hope that all of us have lost...

Out of nowhere everything disappeared.

There was only darkness.

I started to get very sleepy... My eyes slowly closed...

(Laelyn's perspective)

Damn it, if only I had a little more time...

Unknown: I see you don't get out of the habit of preaching your nonsense Laelyn.

A completely white being shaped like a person appeared behind me.

Laelyn: Shut up! Your mouth is forbidden to pronounce my name!

Unknown: Oh... I don't remember creating a rule like that...

The being white started dancing around me to make fun of me.

Unknown: Your time has passed Laelyn, even inside that little head you should know that everything ended a long time ago.

Laelyn: Then why don't you kill me like the others!?

Unknown: Do you want to die? Hahaha, don't worry, when the time comes, you will disappear, just like your brothers and sisters disappeared, they were just a bunch of arrogant people, although they say that hope is the last thing to die hahaha, that certainly gives meaning to your power...

I couldn't stand it and attacked that bastard, but he didn't move an inch and stopped me.

Unknown: You know that I am the owner of this space and world, you can't do anything, so if I were you, I would start preparing to be here alone for another thousand years.

Laelyn: Damn! Unhappy!

Unknown: Mmm... But I'm really happy...

The being white began to laugh.

Unknown: Anyway, thanks for your work, see you.

After saying that he disappeared and I was once again alone in this eternal landscape...

(Robert's perspective)

I opened my eyes, unconsciously tried to breathe but I felt like I was drowning in something, I made a great effort and quickly got out of where I was.

Ahh.... Fresh air... What am I doing in this temple lake? And how did I not drown if I was unconscious? I had so many questions, but after a moment I regained awareness of my surroundings. Where were the girls? What happened? I was so dazed that I had ignored the fact that it was raining.

I tried to get up but my body was too heavy.... Shit... I crawled until I reached solid ground, I was lucky that the lake has a low end, I looked next to where I came out, there was a corpse floating in the clearing near where I woke up... I couldn't recognize who it was.

I started crawling towards a big rock, I started trying to help myself sit on it.

Why didn't he hear anything about the battle? He was sure that the Lunaris warriors were fighting the skeletons.

With great effort I managed to sit on the rock.

All my clothes were wet, my hair too, my body was not moving well at all, I was so cold that at any moment I would go into hypothermia or something similar, I tried to take the situation calmly, I needed to have control of my body, otherwise , I couldn't do anything.

I spent a few minutes analyzing things, I had overlooked something too important, now I can see through my other eye, when I was supposed to have lost it, I didn't feel any kind of pain either, I just felt my body was very heavy and terribly cold, the moon was already there. It wasn't red, it was in its normal state.

It was raining very hard, How long was I unconscious?

There was something that was on my mind but I refused to think about it with all my heart... Are the girls alive? That was my biggest fear right now.

Maybe they survived, I just need to move from here and look for them... I gathered all my strength and with a great effort I got up from the rock and began to walk little by little towards the entrance that led to the different temples.

I don't remember anything very well, but I was sure that I was thrown and passed through the main temple and fell into the clearing, I would have to walk quite a bit because the main temple was at a high altitude from where I was standing.

How did I survive that fall?

After a while of struggle and effort, I managed to reach one of the entrances.

As soon as I reached the crossroads I noticed that there were many destroyed temples, I couldn't see anyone, I only saw bodies lying there.

I was tripping over these because it was night and raining.

There was not a single person alive here, upon seeing this situation I began to deduce something, I was unconscious for a long time, the bodies gave the sensation of having been like this for a while, perhaps hours had passed, although it gave me the feeling that they had been there for days... Who knows.

The rain fell mercilessly, further darkening the night that was closing in on me. The sound of drops hitting the ground mixed with the last whispers of the battle that once took place, creating a somber symphony that enveloped the ruins of the clan in an aura of melancholy.

I passed a small entrance and reached the heart of the clan, the main temple and its large area, in the distance I managed to see the main temple, it was very destroyed, the large stairs also had many damaged parts, in the midst of all that I could not see anything More than bodies and destruction, by chance I looked to my right side and saw her...

How did it end like this... Mizuki...

Kneeling in the middle of so many ruins, lay the figure of the warrior that he had admired so much. Her once imposing presence was now stained with blood and dirt, and her face in the distance revealed the weight of her last feelings.

A lump formed in my throat as I began to approach her, my steps echoing in the midst of the sepulchral rain that enveloped the place.

When I was about to take another step towards her, I accidentally tripped over a piece of debris and fell on my face... I hit myself a little hard, from the ground I could see her...

I felt a searing pain in my chest as I watched her from the ground take her last breath, a feeling of helplessness that threatened to drown me. He couldn't accept that her life had come to an end like this, not when she still had so much to offer the world. She, with her courage and her nobility, did not deserve such a cruel end.

From that position, with dirt mixing with mud under my trembling hands, the rays of the rain fell allowing me to see her clearly. Kneeling in the darkness and the rain, her figure bathed in flashes of distant lightning. The contrast between her strength and my own weakness became painfully evident in that painful moment. My heart was filled with a mixture of pain and admiration as I watched her from the ground, aware of my own inability to reach her. But despite the storm that raged around me, I didn't want to stay like this. With renewed effort, I rose to my feet once more, under the dark, rainy blanket of night.

With all my effort I reached her, with trembling hands, I removed a little of her hair that covered her face, revealing her features marked by determination and bravery. Her hair, now matted and wet.

Tears threatened to blur my eyes as I knelt next to her, silently swearing that her death would not be in vain, because of her I am alive in some way. At that moment, I decided to carry her legacy with me, honoring her memory with every battle she fought and every victory she achieved. Because even if her body lay inert before me, her spirit would live forever in my heart.
