Reinhard was born to a family of knights, his father being the grand commander of knights for the arthurian kingdom had commanded an army of millions, rumors have it that he was a knight who could even combat dragons with just his bare fists, these dragons were powerful enough to vaporize mountains in one go. So Reinhard was born into a rich family, trusted and partnered with the royal family itself, he was trained as a child, he had to go through harsh training atop the mountains, hours of just learning martial arts and learning how to fight with the sword, his family had a mansion of their own, on a 7200 meter mountain, Reinhard needed to train on the highest level of the mountain, with freezing cold temperatures and practically unguarded by any fences, one small mistake in your footing can lead to a fall of more than 3000 meters.
Reinhard had multiple masters who taught him how to be a skilled assassin, who would work for the kingdom and collect information from the opposing parties, he was taught skills like gliding and dual wielding swords, he was built and trained as a man who could even oppose his father. By age 14, Reinhard knew how to glide, dual wield swords and knives, he knew dozens of martial arts and he learned the art of riding dragons, he was recruited by the arthurian empire as their personal assassin at age 15. To understand his quest of revenge, you need to understand the hierarchy in the world, at the bottom levels we have humans and creatures like tigers, pigs, sharks etc. Then we have the secondary stage which has archaradons ( monstrous spiders ), giant lizards named karkarodons that are at bare minimum 30 feet long, whales that house civilizations in just their own body, nightcrawlers that are dinosaur like beings with fly at speeds that surpass lightning, sea creatures like the kraken and leviathan that can cause floods and tsunamis and many more monsters. At the third stage we have celestial giants, beings that even triumph over most mountains, with enough power to one shot a continent, dragons that easily vaporize mountain ranges and large oceans, Slytheria, a giant snake that has a size of 4 km that can cause earth quakes casually and swallow entire cities and civilizations. We then have the fourth stage, which consists of transcendent beings that exist in higher dimensional planes, these beings use earth as their chess board, and they are viewed as gods by civilizations in the kingdoms, these so called gods aren't even the god of this universe, God, angels, celestial beasts live in the heavenly realm, a realm that exists outside the story itself. These transcendent beings use each kingdom as their chess pieces, and can surpass platonic concepts at will. Reinhard seeks revenge against these beings, for creating the albacore, a monster that can threaten the world itself, it stands at 125,000 feet tall and its casual destructive beams can destroy cities, it was summoned by a transcendent being in order to destroy the arthurian empire, over a chess game between these beings. Read how the story unfolds
"Master Reinhard, would you like to go home now that your training is done" asked Nero, one of the empire's finest assassins who was rather attractive
"Eugh, I can barely stand with these wounds, i think i broke a rib or two aswell" said Reinhard
"The hospital has a few magicians who can aid you and heal your injuries in an instant, if you want I can help you glide till there" suggested Nero
"Alright, I can barely stand on two feet so you're going to have to give me a minute" said Reinhard, accepting Nero's offer.
From the previous training session with Nero, Reinhard lost his footing and fell 60 feet down the training area, had he not fallen on the small platform, he would've fallen to his own death, 3000 meters down, quite unfitting for a skillful assassin like Reinhard.
Nero and Reinhard took off, heading to the beautiful castle in the arthurian city, Reinhard was eager to get healed and duel with his father, as a test of his skill.
"Master Reinhard, you do not wish to duel with your father after your medical treatment do you?" asked Nero.
"Uh, Maybe.." Replied Reinhard in a comedic tone.
"Master, maybe in your peak condition you can duel with him, but i would say you should refrain from fighting Master Ferdinand atleast for a few days" Suggested Nero.
"I'll be fine, I just need to get healed by the medical magicians, It's never taken more than 10 minutes" Said Reinhard.
"As you wish master" Replied Nero.
Nero was a decently tall woman with rather attractive features, and red crimson hair, she wasn't built like a fighter at all, she looked more like a middle aged actress in a play, she wore an assassins robe, with armor beneath that covers her a part of her boobs and most of her body, and she wore black gloves and when she had to go on duty, she'd wear a mask, a rather sturdy mask that can withstand arrow shots and even cannons.
Suddenly, the ground started shaking, buildings in the city started collapsing and there were cracks and distortions in space-time itself, it was as if the whole universe was shaking, a giant portal in the sky opened, it looked as if the sky itself split open for the Albacore to enter the living realm. The celestial giants started raging, summoning lightning and attacking the beast, however this was just mere child's play for the Albacore, it's loud roar caused earthquakes and shut down the giants, if the Albacore directed the attack to the commoners, then everyone in the area would've instantly died. It started charging up it's destructive beam in order to destroy the city.
"That thing, it's like it's an ancient beast from religious tales" Said the King
"Yes indeed, but i will protect you and the city my lord" Said Ferdinand, he assured that he'd protect everyone.
Reinhard and Nero were shocked, they knew it's their duty to accompany Ferdinand in fighting off the beast, but in Reinhard's current condition, he'd only be a burden to the army.
"Troops, we have taken an oath to protect our very home, we have families and the king to protect, so no holding back, we're going to fight with our full strength" Said Ferdinand in a motivating and powerful manner
"Darling, Ronald, Aster, Zeldris, Maria and Martha, we have to give it our best and fight for the holy land, I'm counting on you" Said Ferdinand to his wife and children, all of the children were older to Reinhard.
Nero and Reinhard landed near the medical magician center.
"Please, i'd request you to heal master Reinhard as fast as you can, it's an emergency!" Nero requested, frightened and scared for Reinhard.
"I will try my best" Said an old magician doctor, she herself was shocked at seeing such a giant beast, so large that even the whole entire city was overshadowed by just its head.
The dragons and cannons were ready, Reinhard's father Ferdinand was going to ride the heavenly pearl dragon, a beast that breaks the sound barrier just by taking off, while the other members of his family will ride their own dragon who isn't as fast, but is far larger, the Gigarantus, a mythical beast that could vaporize oceans casually.
While Reinhard was being healed, Nero decided to take off along with the others, in order to combat the beast.
Nero, with her ridiculous speed reached the battlefield, and got into one of the cannons, which would shoot her out at insane speeds, she was trained for these kinds of stunts and plans, so she was ready, without any hesitation.
Nero shot off, along with other soldiers, at insane speeds Nero unsheathed her purgatory blade, a sword that towers over your average man, and gets as hot as the surface of the sun itself, It's an ancient magical blade that was made to slay the beasts within the dungeons, it can shrink and expand in size which is a really convenient feature for a swordsman, Nero keeps this sealed away in her scabbard, only expanding Its size when needed, as it strains the user a lot and is practically a one-shot move, If used for too long, it can cause a lot of internal damage and harm the user, which can potentially lead to death, however, Nero while inflight, gets shot by an enemy kingdom, its the florian empire, they've decided to make use of this situation and completely demolish the arthurian empire. Nero's helmet is capable of tanking cannon balls, however in this scenario, her body was already being strained by the mighty blade, Nero is heavily injured and she's falling from an altitude of 6500 meters, she has to shrink her blade and utilize her glider as fast as possible, before she falls to her death.
"Ugh, I've taken too much damage, I think my lungs are giving up on me, I have to glide otherwise i'll die brutally!" Nero exclaimed.
Just in time Nero started gliding down, the weight of her blade was pulling her down until she shrunk it, to the size of a small twig
"I have to..help master Ferdina-" Nero reached one of the surrounding mountains and collapsed face front, with blood leaking out her body and a few broken bones.
Reinhard was searching for Nero, until he was jumped by Florian goblins!
"You human weakling, I'm going to feed you to my hungry child!" The Goblin threatened Reinhard
Reinhard bisected the Goblin with just one sword slash, he went into the cannon to help his family who were battling the albacore.
"Father! I'm going to assist you" Shouted Reinhard with Pride.
As he burst off at insane speeds, he unsheathed his blade mid air and sliced several goblins, and was right infront of the albacore
Such a giant beast, even after living in a world of monsters and abnormally huge creatures, the Albacore looked like a monster from a mythological tale, like the personification of the devil itself.
Reinhard landed on the surface of the Albacore's body, and tried piercing it only for his blade to break completely.
"This is unbelievable, such power is unfathomable, there's no way we can beat this monster" Reinhard gave up all hope.
the Albacore started charging up its destructive beam, the radiation repelled all of the soldiers, they were falling at such a high velocity, reminiscent of meteorites, the monster was blocking all sunlight, looking similar to that of a solar eclipse.
What happens next, is brutal.
