SEASON - 1
Chapter 1
ZAIDEN KINGDOM
EMPIRE SECURITY HEADQUARTERS
A Guard ran down the hallway towards the head room and opened the gate in panic. Drenched in sweat and in panic he said to the Security general ALEX (Legendary Archknight) “Sir Alex, we have found the location of that boy! He is staying in Maria Village. We have confirmed it's him staying with a girl”. Alex, with a wicked smile on his face, laughs and orders the knights to follow him to get the boy. Alex with some knights head directly to maria village to get the boy.
Knight Marcus - “sir, lastly who is this boy and why King Zaiden has been finding the boy in the past 7 years and the biggest mystery is how he gets randomly caught after 7 years.”
Alex - “King thinks that boy is the NYX. But I don't think so”
Marcus got goosebumps and he fears in terror and asked “The UNRANKED Nyx? People say that he not less than a Legendary tier and we are going to fight it?”
Alex - “it's just an assumption, and if he has ELION'S WILL, I will kill him and give it to king as the present. Now get ready, we are here.”
[based on raw, strength and magic powers, there is a power ranking in this system
1. Novice knight
2. Adept knight
3. Elite knight (Champion + warlords)
4. Legendary night (archknight + ascendant)
5. Divine knight (demigods + deity)
6. Unranked (can be novice or can be divine, no one knows)]
Alex and some knights arrived the Maria village and found the hotel in which the boy was staying and using his sword Alex destroyed the gate. The boy was standing there, and Alex saw a girl beside her that come forward to protect her. After seeing the girl Alex gets equally terrified and happy. He says - “long time no see Farah! Now it's all makes sense.”
All the knights look confused as they don't know who that girl is and how Alex knows him.
[Farah was the one of the candidates participated in knight recruitments in which Alex was also participating. Farah defeated Alex in the finals, but he remembers her very well because she is the only one who doesn't use any rune or will to reach up to the top. She alone made it to finals with the help of her sword Shadowblade. On that day Alex knows that if Farah had used any will or curse, she would easily kill him with one attack. But she refused to be a knight and take the reward money as her intention to participate was only to win the reward money.]

“So, why are you saving the boy, are you also after Ellion’s will,” said Alex.
“He does not have it. Now let me and the boy leave quietly Alex, then I will spare you and your fellow knights' life.” said Farah
Alex laughs and says “Are you going to save a criminal Farah. Even if that boy does not have will, he has still accusations of being Nyx. Give me the boy as king is directly interested in him and I will let you go”.
“He is not Nyx, I am NYX. Now let us go quietly Alex otherwise be ready to face the consequences”. - Farah
“Do you think you can defeat me if you pretend to be Nyx? I know you are Unranked, but I guess you are not more than an Elite tier. And even if you are at the legendary tier, I am legendary (Archknight), and you will be defeated by me. Today is a great day. I will defeat you and take revenge for the humiliation of the knight recruitment finals and if you happen to Nyx, that will be greater as I present your dead body to king with that boy. King will be very pleased today” - Alex laughs......then attack the boy with a wind slash.
[In this world, every living being has an Essence which their body gradually creates. This Essence can be used to do anything that the mind wants but everybody can’t use it. Essence is like a stream of extra energy that the body stores and makes but it requires a source to channel it and use it. The source in this world is Will and runes. Runes are the remnants of nature which are naturally present within a living being. Will on other hand are the remnants of Eldritch creatures and gods which are inherited only from generation to generation. Both the sources are rare in nature and a person being born with Rune or inherit Will are very rare. About 1 in 10,000 have rune and 1 in 1,00,000 have will.]
[On a basic level, a person with rune or will can carry out two basic attacks. They can direct their essence to their weapon or body and can use it as they desire. A person with more powers and training can go beyond basic level and can summon a REALM in which they direct their essence to the environment surrounded by realm and use their environments to get buffs. Summoning a realm is very rare and only 5% of the users can use it and only 1% have mastered it yet. Those who can’t use the realm even after learning and training can summon a LIMBO. Limbo can only be summoned inside a realm, and it nullifies the effects and attack in realm.]
Alexs attacks the boy with wind slash coming from his sword but Farah counters it with her sword
Alex- “So you have made your mind to save that boy, now you both must die here”
Alex attacks Farah with his sword and Farah dodges it,
“Alex, don't make mistake and let us go, I don’t want any casualties” - Farah
Alex attacks her with another wind slash and this time Farah dodged the slash and attacked Alex with sword, Alex dodged the sword and laughed at her aim but to his surprise, the knight behind his back, all are dead by the fire slash from Farah’s Shadowblade.
They both fight head on with their swords and they attack and defend about 100+ times in a spilt second. The fight was so overpowering that even the elite ranked knights were not able to see it.
Clashing of swords stops and Farah stood with Shadowblade in her hand and not even a single scratch, on other hand Alex stood with his sword and a bleeding cut under his eye going from his eyelids to his chin. The whole room was destroyed with wind slashes and fire slashes and no wall remains intact. This fight of 2 minutes causes the whole room to become pieces of bricks and cements and 3 knights' death.
“You have become way stronger, but you still can’t defeat me, Alex. Now stop this here and let us go otherwise you know that when two legendary tier knights fight seriously, there will be destruction and catastrophe everywhere and I don't want this town to be destroyed.”
-Farah
“I acknowledge that you are nearly at legendary tier, and you have grown your skills more but let’s get this party started, I don’t care who and what will be destroyed today, even if I have to use my full potential to defeat you, I will.”
-Alex
