Prologue

"Brother" a lady sitting on a golden throne looked towards a man beside her.

"We have visitors" the lady continued hinting for the brother to decide what to do next.

"Shall we dispose of them as usual?"

"Let us hear them first" the man replied as he looked towards the door a few meters from them. "They have a little to nothing people sent here, I wonder what they want this time."

"I see" the lady nodded and lift the scepter on her right hand which was adored with different precious stones.

"Dispell"

Then a breaking sound resounded upon the entire room as the man pulled his sword and  positioned his shield in front standing right in front of the throne. Then the man closed his helmet that you would think it wouldn't even protect him at all due to numerous chipped area and scars that show how many battles it went through.

___________________________________________

Then a few seconds later a few people entered. A six man party approached warily and looked around finally noticing the heavy pressure around the room. 

"Speak " A single commanding word was all the lady in the throne said.

The party looked up sand saw a goddess  looking towards them with an icy gaze with an expressionless face.

A man with a sword and shield came forward and bowed respectfully.

"We ar...."

"Skip the introductions and tell me why you are here!" The lady in the throne interrupted while raising her voice a little.

"We seek your aid your Highness!" The group said in unison.

"I refuse" a cold and instant reply came at the group's pleading manner.

"Wha?" The suppose to be leader was at lost for words at the queen's behavior.

The leader and his party travelled for so long and faced with numerous life and death situations and in fact they lost seven of their comrades along the way. The leader was frustrated and confused at the same time. He was thinking that once they reach the queen then she will naturally help them and vanquish the  enemy kingdom that started conquering many lands with demons and abominations. He was sure because it may seem natural but faced with the current situation he was frozen. His brain couldn't understand why the queen was so cold towards them like they are just mere bugs. His mind keeps on asking why is it happening.

"Go home, this is not the place for the likes of you." The lady waved her scepter and turned away her gaze while looking like she lost interest.

Everybody was shocked at how they were treated. The leader himself was a famous warrior and can be considered a hero of a kingdom and certainly his companions also have great popularity. For them to be treated like this was a first and they are not able to cope up with the situation  very well as they are used to be granted whatever they asked for just by using some sweet and flattering words.

The leader once again stepped up and determination flared in his eyes. He has travelled for so long and he was tired, the more reason he can not give up with just mere cold words from a lady who looks like someone who don't know how the world works.

"We can not obey my Lady" he said in still a respectful manner which the other party members nodded in praise.

"Our country is at stake here and we can not return empty handed."

He was expecting an answer or even just the attention of the lady sitting on the throne but she didn't even look into his direction, instead the man who remained quiet for the whole conversation earlier stepped up and hit his shield with his sword then spoke.

"Leave and never come back"

The man who looks like a Knight that will fall down any moment due to the numerous damage in his armor and his sword and shield were chipped in every places. For a simple description, it looks like it will crumble with just a single touch.

"Don't drag us to your mess and deal with it yourselves. We are busy and we will be forever busy that we won't even remember your visit today."

Asshole!!!

The leader of the party thought as he clench his fist. He was really frustrated but the words the Knight said makes sense, it was their war but now they are losing and needed someone to save them. Clearly this two people in this ruined fortress don't want to intervene.

"B.stars!! Who are you to command us?!" The archer in the party yelled as he pulled his bow ready and was already aiming to the Knight.

The leader himself was expecting a reaction from the other party but both the lady and the Knight remained silent. The lady even started to yawn in boredom. This made him and the rest of the party very frustrated. If the other side show some arrogance, they could strike a deal or a bet or a challenge in exchange for granting their request but now that the other side remained silent and unmoving, they were not able to do something aside from forcing them to join them.

Although it sounds so simple, this fortress in between the borders of their kingdom and the enemy kingdom is still standing and survived many tribulation from the both sides. The leader knows what it means, the two person in front of them were ridiculously powerful to fend off both kingdom.

"What do we do?" The female sorceress whispered.

"We can not go home empty handed!" The archer added and other party members started to voice out their discontent.

"We try every card available to us to get this fortress! This fortress can play a huge role in this war!" The bandit looking man in the party whispired to the leader.

"Brother" the lady said softly.

"They are not leaving...."

The brother knows that his sister is already irritated and wanted to end this audience already. He knows that she doesn't trust anyone aside from him.

"Drive them out already" she said in a displeased tone.

"Wait!" The man that he deem to be the leader of the party interjected hurriedly.

"How can we convince you to aid us? As you know, you are standing in the border of Romuna Kingdom and the kingdom owns this fortress. You guys are trespassing!"

He chuckled and opened his helmet and faced them fearlessly.

"I have heard those words plenty of times and all of the people that uttered those words were now used as fertilizer for our garden." The Knight pointed his sword towards the party with a provocative gesture.

"Careful what you say traveller."

The threat was clear and the other party can certainly feel the thick overbearing pressure the Knight is emitting.

"Da... dammn it!" The leader cursed angrily.

"Just so you wait! We will hang your heads later on the castle gates for this act of defiance!"

The Knight just nodded and the face cover of his helmet went down. Then he started beating his shield with his sword in a really provoking manner.

"Come then! Mere dogs who don't have the guts to battle me shouldn't be so cocky. The audacity to threathen while running with their tails between their legs."

"You all are pathetic!" He said as he emitted his killing intent that made the party break in cold sweats.

The party left without saying anything more and once again only two people were left in the throne room. The Knight removed his helmet once the door closed and his reddish hair that have purplelish hue as the light of the sun hits them swayed along with the wind. Then he quietly returned to the right side of the throne and stood silently like a statue.

___________________________________________

"Brother Rubias" the lady that has the same reddish hair stood on the top of the watchtower. "How many times have we killed a person."

Her name is Sapphire Lumina Clevisa. She was in her twenty and two years of life and she had always been with her brother Rubias Dante Clevisa. Both of them were fallen noble of a far away kingdom. She is gifted with immense magical talent while his brother is simply monstrous in physical aspects. Due to this reasons, the other nobles in their kingdom joined hands to eliminate the whole Clevis family due to fear and greed for position in the kingdom.

Due to both of the twins' young age and inexperience, they weren't able to protect the family and was forced to escape the kingdom with just their lives and started to wander here and there while strengthening their ridiculous talent until they found and abandoned fortress occupied by random monsters and decided to stay there and live quitely until war erupted in the continent and now they find themselves in the middle of two hostile kingdoms.

Back to the current situation, Sapphire was looking far away using far sight magic as she see the massive and numerous army heading to the fortress.

"I don't know sister." Rubias replied to her. She knows her brother went through a lot for her and shed rivers of blood just to protect her. She was frustrated how these kingdoms seems to never leave them alone.

"We have lived and the scene of massacre has always been there for us. Till when will we must see them?" Sapphire was after all a softie and a girl. The constant slaughter, she hated it and if she can, she would escape but she knows there is no place for her and Rubias. Just their existence was considered a sin. As they both have monstrous strength and the general populace can't accept them. It's the reason they were living like hermits on this abandoned fortress.

"It is time to leave this place Sapphire." She looked towards her brother in surprise.

Weren't he so admamant to staying in this place?

"What do you mean brother?" She asked  innocently but deep inside she was exited to leave the place. They have stayed for three years in the fortress and the land is bathe in blood by countless human, orcs, dwarves, monsters and many more army and the numerous human army approaching may once again color the land by red.

"Let's try to blend in the society once again. I think this life is boring and not worth continuing."

"Of course, brother is wise. That is why you are the advisor and I am the queen after all." Sapphire laughed softly but with glee.

"But before we leave..." Rubias looked towards the horizon and saw the cloud of dust made by the approching army. "Let's show these dogs who they are messing with."

"Okay but let's finish this in one go." Sapphire agreed in a serious tone.

Then Sapphire condenced massive mana in her hand. Then  it formed into a swirling mass of white flame.

"I think this will do..." she nodded "Now if you please brother."

Rubias approached her and unsheat his sword. Then he extend it and the massive white sphere of flame enveloped the sword. He then jumped off the seven better tall wall and formed a stance.

"Absolute Sivir"

Then the sword is slashed upwards and a wave of white inferno travelled into the great distance. Then a loud explosion erupted and tore the land leaving only a crater and sea of red.

On that day, two hundred thousand elite army of the Romuna Kingdom was erased in the face of the planet leaving only a fifty meter diameter crater as their momento.

AN: Okay so prologue is done and I think I have a pretty good plot to start off. I will be honest and I will confess I stopped once due to some unwanted.. arrggg.. no erase memory not worth it.. Anyway I hope those people stay away and let me enjoy whatever ridiculous idea I have and how ridiculous I deliver it.  If someone is fond of bitching then please bitch only on your head.. I wrote this long note because I wanted to enjoy this story without the influence of other *cough self proclaimed professional critiques* because I am not a writer and I don't plan to be one. It's casual writing. Besides I hate reading long sermons with such little font size of my phone. Enjoy the flow and if you don't like it then leave, I am not forcing anyone to read my post.

If anyone read up to this line then good job enduring such a long Blabber. LOL. Happy reading!
