Chapter 45 - The Second Regiment: Disgraceful Challenge I

- - - At Abyssal Plateau - - -

Narrator's POV:

*slash!* *slash!*

*grunting*

*heavy panting*

*metallic clashing swords*

*growling*

The Second Regiment still continue fighting the overwhelming number of demons with no end.

They're not completely aware that, they've been fighting the horde for a long period of time.

"It's... IT'S NO USE!!! *heavy panting*... Their number is.... great! *swing* ... There's no end of them!!!"

- William ( Made-up name ) said while fighting.

*growling*

*slash!*

"No matter how many we've killed, they keep on charging at us!"

- Pauline ( Made-up name ) shouts while battling.

While most of them are having a difficult edge in battle, Tigreal heard their complaints and started taunting them.

"Hmph! How coward can you all be? You are my seniors yet, you are this coward?"

- Tigreal insultingly said.

*all attention are now focused to Tigreal*

"*tch!* How pathetic! You all whined like babies... it makes me wanna puke here due to embarrassment!"

- Tigreal arrogantly said.

*firm grip*

"All we have to do is SLAY THEM ALL!!!"

- Tigreal taunts his seniors while battling the demons.

While Tigreal is busy battling, Terence heard him and triggered of what he just said.

"YOU'RE... THE PATHETIC ONE HERE! YOU INSOLENT M*TH*RF*CK*R!!!"

- Terence shouts angrily.

"Will you still continue this fruitless battle with a vague chance of VICTORY?! ARE YOU STILL GONNA FIGHT YOUR WAY THROUGH IT, HUH??!"

- Terence shouts angrily towards Tigreal.

*Tigreal's battling but still listening*

"Or perhaps you're f*ck*ng dumb to understand the situation we're facing??!"

- Terence angrily said.

*Tigreal gotten pissed*

"What... Did you just..... Say??!"

- Tigreal ask angrily.

While the two of them are arguing, they no longer paid attention to the battle that occured around them. With an overwhelming argument of the two, the demons took this opportunity to launch an attack.

*growling*

The demon sneaked and performed an attack towards the both of them. Just in time, before the said plot occurs, Zemislav stepped in and SLASH the demon in half.

*slash!*

*Tigreal and Terence gasp*

"You know what, it's a bad practice to argue in the midst of battle."

- Zemislav interrupted.

*slash!* *slash!*

"No matter how much you two argue... *Heyyaahh!!!*... There's nothing we can do to change- *slash!* -the situation we currently in."

- Zemislav said while battling.

*Tigreal and Terence gone silent*

*Zemislav's companions are still fighting*

*battling sounds*

*weapons clashing*

. . .

"If we keep doubting, accusing, and blaming each another... *pierce*... *splatter*... the outcome is still the same... *HA!!* "

- Zemislav said while keeping lecturing the two of them and battling at the same time.

"Past is past. All we needed to do is ... *gasps*... *slash!*.... Face the present and fight our way through it. No matter how much- *GAH!!*... Grrr... *Heyyaahh!!*... *pierce*.... - fruitless or hopeless it is."

- Zemislav said as he battles.

*battling sounds*

*demon heavy marches*

*all were panting*

. . .

"We need to keep ourselves together,  instead of arguing each other."

- Zemislav said.

*all were in a tight encirclement*

"We have to strengthen our will and reserve our stamina... That's all we can do for now.."

- Zemislav said.

*panting*

*drip* *drop*

*gulp*

. . .

"Everyone! Listen to me!"

- Zemislav yells.

*all of his men listens*

*growling of demons*

. . .

"Our chance of victory is slim. Fighting them head-on will only exert ourselves, and we'll go straightly to our demise..."

- Zemislav yells.

*taunting of demons*

*battle throngs*

*all of them are slowly back-off and defend each other's back cautiously*

"Now, our best bet is to wait for the 'Portal' to appear once again!"

- Zemislav yells.

*all were listening despite their exhaustion*

*panting*

*demons' growling*

"There's a slim chance for the portal to appear, but it is better than fighting in a battle with no chance survival. But...."

- Zemislav said.

*demons' taunting*

*tch!*

"If there's no chance for the appearance of the portal, I am afraid we'll take the necessary..."

- Zemislav said while gripping his sword firmly.

*ka-clack!*

"In order for us to get back to our motherland, we'll have to take a risk."

- Zemislav said.

They're all calmed and stop arguing for a time being.

*growling of demons*

"Now, my fellow knights of Order, my regiment, let us brace ourselves once more, and together, we can hold the lines and defend each other's back!!"

- Zemislav yells.

*all yell*

. . .

Zemislav successfully ignited everyone's fighting spirit and will. The demons started to get confused of their battle cry and made them falter.

At that moment, Zemislav gazes at Tigreal who's just beside him. Tigreal is prepared and his composure never faltered. Zemislav noticed his firm spirit and somehow reminds him of his old self.

*growling of demons intensifies*

. . .

Zemislav pats Tigreal's shoulder which made him flinch.

"Sir Tigreal... Your bravery amazed me especially for a rookie knight like you."

- Zemislav said.

*Tigreal's listening*

"Once you'll grow up, you'll become a great knight that'll give light and inspiration to others."

- Zemislav said.

*all of Zemislav's regiment are now prepared to engage in battle*

*metallic stomping*

*demons' faltered*

"I... understand your bravery and your enthusiasm but... You mustn't taunt your seniors. Taunting your companions diminishes their trust towards you. When it comes to fighting in team, respect is the most essential thing a knight must possess."

- Zemislav lectures.

*demons' intensified growling*

*firm grip of weapons*

. . .

"I hope... you understand...."

- Zemislav said.

Zemislav pats Tigreal again and prepares to initiate the battle.

"WE SHALL FIGHT, TILL THE END!!!"

- Zemislav yells.

*all were ready*

"FOR MONIYAN!!!"

- Zemislav yells.

"FOR MONIYAN!!!"

- all repreated what Zemislav yells.

*GROWL!!!!*

*YELL!!*

Now, the battle between the Second Regiment, under Zemislav's leadership has initiated their attack... Zemislav charges in front lines and start slaying the demons.

*SLASH!!*

*SLASH!!!*

*deafening BANG!!!*

While the battle rages on, Tigreal gotten quiet somehow.

. . .

As they continue to engage in battle, there was a vague shadow infront of them...

"Hmm!... Hmm!.. hmmmm!"

- chuckling of a maiden's voice.

. . .

A woman with demon wings.

*FLAP!*

*flexes wings*

Most of them are busy battling which gave the woman with demon wings a chance to initiate her attack.

She raises her right arm and it casted some sort of spell...

*SWOOSH!!!*

Which wipes some of Zemislav's men....

"AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!"

With a scream that loud, most of the second regiment members shocked.

"NO!!! NOOOO!!!!"

- Zemislav yells.

Zemislav tries to reach his fallen comrades but all of them burst like a pulp.

*BOOM!*

*SPLAT!!!*

Blood splattered in their area.

*drip* *drop*

Zemislav's expression....

*slow panting of Zemislav*

Is now filled with despair...

*trembling*

While Zemislav's spacing out, his other comrades persistently fight due to their outburst....

"GRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!"

Their anger, shrouded their mentality which made them open to enemy attacks.

*SLASH!*

*PIERCE!!!*

"GAHAAAKK!!!"

"NO!!! NOOOO!!!! D*MN YOU ALL!!!!"

Zemislav's men charges madly towards their enemies which lead to their demise.

*STAB!*

*RIP!!!*

. . .

Zemislav's spacing but soon interrupted by an upcoming demon warrior that's about to slam him but...

*deafening sound of CLANG!!!*

*Zemislav's perilous glare*

*demon flinched*

Zemislav successfully blocked the demon's attack with his sword.

*gritting intensified*

And he SLASH the demon in half.

*SLASH!!*

*ripped sounds*

Zemislav bows down his head and his arm started to emit an unknown force.

*crackling sounds*

*clenches fist firmly*

. . .

While Zemislav is in a state of anger, another bunch of demons attack on his way.

"RRRAAAARRRWWWW!!!"

They charged at him with no hesitation and they take a leap and lunge at him. But...

The moment they lunge, Zemislav swiftly SWINGS his sword and creates a sonic BOOM!

*SWOOSHH!!!*

Zemislav firmly grips his sword and lunge at them. While the demons were in a state of trance, Zemislav appeared in the middle.

"REVOLUTIONARY STRIKE!"

- Zemislav casted.

Zemislav whirls his sword with great power and speed.

*sword whirling sound*

*gale sounds*

*SPLATTER!!!*

Zemislav slays them swiftly in mid-air and he landed on the ground.

*STOMP!!*

The moment he landed, he is trembling, not in a form of terror but he trembles due to eagerness to slay the demons.

*faint snarling of Zemislav*

*heavy panting*

*demons' battling*

. . .

Zemislav greedily kills the demons whoever stands in his way.

*SWISS!*

*SLAM!!!*

He lunge, he strikes, he pludge, he cleave, and he rips the demons with his sword.

*WHHHIIINNGGG!!!*

Everytime he kills a demon, his comrades are slowly falling. What he did to the demons also falls the same demise as them.

*grits in desperation*

He... couldn't do anything to protect them with his prowess as demons puts them in a tight encirclement.

*growling of demons*

*heavy marches*

As he slays, he kept on witnessing his comrades died in his eyes which he, himself couldn't do much as watch them.

*grits*

He still keep on battling as his burning anger is finally at his peak.

*grips*

Until...

*perilous glare*

Zemislav is finally at his limit in controlling his anger...

. . .

Zemislav's POV:

. . .

No.... This can't be happening....

*groaning of his comrades*

*ripped*

*battle cries*

Everyone....

*battling sounds*

*demons' growling*

Is slowly falling...

*scream*

We... won't stand a chance....

*grips*

Before the appearance of the portal again...

*trembling*

I... I....

*tch!*

DAMN IT!!!!!

*Zemislav gave his opponent a perilous glare*

You....

*STOMP!!!*

I'll.... annihilate you all...

*swings!*

*deafening sound of CLANG*

I... won't let anyone...

*Zemislav lunges and pierce the demon in its head*

*PIERCE!!!*

*Splat!*

. . .

Die.... Anymore....

*thud!* *THUD!*

*crackling sounds*

I'm... gonna finish this..... I'll.... I'll....

*CRAAACCKK!!!*

*crumbling rocks*

*Zemislav's surroundings crack due to an unknown force he released*

. . .

*without any consciousness, Zemislav is now engulfed with light-based lighting on himself*

*light-based lightning crackles*

*Zemislav is so drenched in his anger which he uncontrollably unleashed a light-based magical circle at the sky*

*deafening sound of BAM*

*light particles*

*Zemislav is tempted to unleash 'that' power back in Azyrya but suddenly, he remembered a flashback*

- - - - - Flashback - - - - -

. . .

"Why are you..? crying? Did something-"

- I worriedly ask.

*Margarette hugged him tighter*

"Don't do 'that' again."

- Margarette seriously said, while crying.

"? ? ?"

- I am confused.

"Whenever... *sob*.... you are in an emotional crisis."

- Margarette said in a serious tone, while crying.

- - - - - Flashback Ends - - - - -

. . .

*when he remembered his wife, Margarette, he calms down and the appearance of the magical circle disappears*

*breeze*

*demons sounds*

*the force that engulfed him quickly disappeared*

I.....

. . .

*the anger, that he felt earlier, quickly changes to regret as he remembered how he loses control back at the Barren Land's incident*

Won't let that... Tragedy..... repeats again....

*battling*

Ever....

. . .

At that time, when my anger quickly disappears, my will suddenly flew and I regretted that I let myself overwhelmed by my raging emotions.

I am so ashamed of myself....

. . .

Being tempted to commit such tragedy for the second time. I... can't live that way... All over again....

. . .

So, I kept on battling the demons while carrying my shame all over again.

*SLASH!*

*SWING!!!*

. . .

While I was battling, I glanced at Sir Terence... He was battling with all his might. But it was good to know though.

That he fights his enemies than blaming our companions. It would be a relief that the arguments settled.

. . .

So, of course I minded my own business and fight my way through this hopeless battle.

While we're all busy fighting for our survival, I gaze at the horizon, hoping to feel the presence of the portal that transported us here in the Barren Lands.

*heeeyyaaahh!!*

*STOMP!!!*

*slash!!*

I heightened my senses and focus about the location of the portal. I am pretty sure I took some sample of its presence despite its sudden appearance earlier.

I started to focus to locate the portal's location while maintaining my confrontation to the demons.

*howling*

*snarling of demons*

I search my surroundings as careful as possible. While looking at the horizon, searching for 'that' portal, I... saw something...

*breeze*

A strange silhouette that appeared infront of us in a far distance.

*breeze*

"What the... heck is that?"

- I ask.

*sweat drips*

. . .

I.... don't know what's that creature but its aura....

*faint maiden chuckle*

. . .

*drop*

. . .

Is full of malice....

As I am in a state of wonder, my fellow companions kept on fighting. I... don't know what's going on but it is my first time feeling something who's aura so ominous.

*battling*

*demon grunts*

. . .

Narrator's POV:

As Zemislav kept on wondering, the silhouette with a demon wings raises her arm and points at his comrade's location.

He is wondering why a silhouette points at his comrades and what's its planning to achieve.

Suddenly, the silhouette is surrounded some sorta reddish like energy and it all focuses on its arms, pointing at his fellow men.

*Zemislav gasps*

Upon knowing what the silhouette trying to achieve, Zemislav quickly fasten his pace and head towards his targeted men.

"EVERYONE!!! PEOPLE AT SIR TERENCE VICINITY, MOVE OUT!!!!"

- Zemislav yells.
