Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 {Rundie’s Domain Is the Safest Place}

Tianzhu (Narration):

At one place, I was devouring souls to make my body and soul stronger.

Meanwhile, my Master was flying toward the North Bridge to deliver the King's letter to Commander Jay.

Scene: A massive stone bridge built over a deep ravine is shown.

Humans are taking cover behind stones and barriers. In front of them, a Dragonkin battalion is positioned.

Jay is leading the human battalion.

Jay:

Everyone, stay focused. They don't know our exact location yet. They only know that we are on this bridge.

Scene: The Dragonkin are not on the bridge but on the ground, completely surrounding it.

Battalion Member:

Commander, they outnumber us, and they have completely covered the bridge! What should we do?!

Jay:

Damn those dragons…!!!

Jay:

Everyone, we are going to attack those dragons!

Random Soldier:

But Commander, we might die! There are too many of them!

Jay:

I know. But if we do nothing, we'll die anyway. So it's better to die while trying than to die doing nothing.

Random Soldier:

Right…! Let's go, everyone!!

Scene: All humans attack the Dragonkin.

Scene: Dragon Commander Spars is standing behind his army, watching calmly.

Spars:

So they came… Everyone, charge! Don't leave a single one alive!!

Scene: Dragons attack. Magic and swords clash.

The battle begins.

Jay:

Thunder Bolt!

Scene: Lightning strikes the ground, slightly damaging one or two dragons, but most are unaffected.

Random Human:

Fire Collide!

Scene: A ring of fire appears, damaging one dragon, but another dragon attacks immediately.

Dragon:

Dragon Roar!!

Scene: The dragon screams. Some humans' ears bleed from the sound.

Magic and sword fights continue. Dragons dominate the battlefield.

Jay:

Divine Art!

Scene: A golden being appears in the sky and opens its eyes.

A beam of light shoots down, killing many dragons.

Dragons:

AAAAAAAHH…!!

Humans:

AAAAH…!!

Scene: Spars attacks.

Spars:

Dragon Lord: Kin Blast!!

Scene: The corpses of dead dragons explode, damaging both humans and dragons.

Humans & Dragons:

AGH…!!!

Jay (thinking):

This is war. There is no main character here. Anyone can die—enemy or ally. Every warrior can die.

Spars:

Hmm… There are no elves. So humans didn't come here to meet the elves?

Whatever. If we kill these humans, dragons will grow stronger.

Scene: Humans keep dying. Some dragons die too, but dragons are dominating.

The battlefield is full of screams, magic blasts, sword clashes, shaking ground, broken stones, blood, and corpses.

Jay:

Are we going to die here…?

Well, that is fate. I will accept it.

For our kingdom, this death is honorable!

Everyone, fight for our kingdom!

If we die here, die for our kingdom!

It is the greatest honor for us to die for Aryavarth!

All Humans:

YES!! KILL OR DIE! KILL OR DIE!

FOR ARYAVARTH!! IT'S OUR HONOR!!

Scene: Suddenly, a voice comes from the sky.

Rundie:

My, my… I didn't know you dragon shits were killing my people.

Spars:

?! Who are you?!

Dragon Soldier:

Commander! He is Rundie, Grand Master Rank! Humanity's strongest magician!

Spars:

W-What?! Why the hell is he here?!

Another Dragon:

I don't know, but this is bad news…

Spars:

So what if you are humanity's strongest magician?! We are dragons!

We can kill any human! Humans are just trash! Dragons are the most hono—

Scene: Rundie uses magic.

Rundie:

Invisible Scythe.

Scene: The dragon's neck is cut. It falls to the ground, and the body is sliced into pieces.

Dragons:

C-Commander…!!!

Rundie:

An insolent dragon dares to talk in front of me?

Random Dragon:

You son of a—

Scene: Rundie uses another magic.

Rundie:

Lota Pak.

Scene: A massive pot appears in the sky and falls on the dragons, crushing them.

Then it explodes. Every dragon there dies instantly.

The explosion is so huge that even the Elf army hears and sees it from far away.

Elf Commander:

What was that?!

Elf Soldier:

Maybe a battle is going on…?!

Elf Commander:

Let's go check!

Scene: Elves start running toward the explosion.

Meanwhile, Rundie lands on the ground.

Jay:

I greet Grand Master Rundie.

Rundie:

Here.

Scene: He gives Jay the letter.

Jay:

What is this?

Rundie:

The King gave it to me and told me to give it to you. So I did.

Jay:

Oh… Thanks, Grand Master.

Rundie:

Okay, I have some work. I'm off now.

Jay:

Hm. (nod)

Scene: Rundie starts flying away, then stops.

Rundie:

By the way, the sound and shockwave of that explosion will bring the Elf army here soon.

Leave before they arrive.

Jay:

Yes, Grand Master.

Scene: Rundie leaves.

Jay:

Everyone, move out!!

Scene: All humans start retreating.

Meanwhile, inside the cave, Tianzhu is devouring a soul. Suddenly, he stops moving like a statue.

His eyes slowly turn red.
