Chapter 17 - The Call

"call him, I want to talk" Blackbeard bent over the fencing in his balcony as he looked at his kingdom.

His sight stretched over hundreds of miles to the far horizon. He thought to himself, " I always wanted to face a strong and now I have an opportunity, I can fight Ignatius. He was that strong after his birth so just think about how powerful he will be as an Adult. I want to fight him and take him as a General, I will conquer all the planets of the Scalia world. I see why my father loved loyal men, I think I have to change my thoughts, Loyalty is not that bad if they work for me. " Blackbeard felt his intrest shifting from hating Loyalty to understanding its importance.

The knights sent the message to Oliver, Oliver was in The East regime, Guarding the city against Beast floods of the Calorikal Forest.

As the Strongest General, he was solving the kingdom's biggest threat, the beast tide.

In a big field, out of the city near the forest Oliver with the Dev sena army, the strongest army of the Heimdem empire is preparing themselves for the beast tide. Oliver is in the front unlike other Generals who stay behind and guide the Army, he takes the lead and inspires everyone to crush the enemies.

The Dev sena, one of Scalia's strongest Forces in the world and the strongest force in the Heindem Empire, is bestowed to Oliver for defending the East Regime from Destruction.

The city consists of Twelve million people And is a great revenue source for King, He ordered it to guard the city at any cost.

"Sigh, it's been only a few weeks since last exercised, I created the Inter-Dimensional room, and hope Children will be practicing there. ".

Oliver walked in front of the army, He took a deep breath,

INHALES

"I am Oliver Harizama, Your General. It's the fourth time I am going to showcase my power after starting this job, a few weeks ago. It's the second time me comanding you. You performed way better than other armies that I handled, So you all know me, I want to tell you why we are here, Our Home is in danger of getting a beast tide! Whoever SLays the more will be paid the more", Oliver walked away,

Oliver reached in his tent, A subordinate reached him,

"General, why don't you use a weapon, I have always seen you fighting barehand, do you fight barehand to push yourself? "

"Oh, that's a good idea. When I was in the academy I used weapons and the whole class ended up getting injured from the impact after that I never thought of using weapons. Maybe I should try it " Oliver grew a smug smile as he went towards the arsenal.

"Show me the best sword available "

The knights there saw Oliver in the arsenal for the first time they were shocked, and King's messenger arrived as soon as Oliver sat on the chair.

"I am King's messenger, King wants to meet you "

"What? Tell him that I will meet him after this mission"

"Ok"

The messenger left, and while returning he thought, "Damn, how can this person be that disrespectful to the king, not even sent him his greeting. Even told him to wait" He left.

"Now let's continue weapon selections" Oliver placed his hands on his knees."

Various mythical weapons were displayed in front of him,

" This is the Dragon scales, made from the bones and teeth of an ancient dragon. Its user can manipulate fire without any incantation and can melt anything. next, we have Lighting Saber, Made from the core of Lighting dragon, which grants the user lighting manipulation and can cut through the densest of materials. Dual Hynoryen, the blade that gives the teleportation powers..." One after one mythical weapon were shown to Oliver.

"Can I take all of them?" Did he ask the knight? The knight was confused he replied,

"Yes, my lord they all belong to you. The Senior Minister is quite kind. She keeps sending this weapon but you never opened anyone. But How are you going to use all of them? "

"Just look, I want the base blade to be the Dual Hynoryen, now I will extract the powers of every other blade using extraction manipulation. One of the techniques developed by me and fuse it in the Base blade. It's a quite tiring process but with my mental strength, it's not hard. Can you please leave me alone for some time? I want to concentrate."

"Ok General" The Guard left.

After a few minutes, Oliver was still concentrating. A knight barged in,

"General, we are seeing the beast tide moving up. They will reach here in a few minutes. We are all ready. "

"Oh, go It will take some time for me to join. You take the command until then"

"Oh..ok"

The Knight was confused, he positioned the knights and got ready for the attack.

"Get ready the beats are here, Let's go" The knight screamed.

A giant wyvern first came into the field with hundreds of beasts following its lead, The wyvern scared the person in the position.

Seeing the person in charge scared and Oliver nowhere on the battlefield, the soldier got scared as well.

"Ayhhhhhhhhhhhh"

The wyvern screamed All knights trembled, and Oliver's words echoed in their ears. They stood to fight, their bravery fluctuating. The person in charge was in front, he ran backward.

While running he fell, when he turned to stand his body froze he saw The giant Wyvern 3 meters away from him.

"Nooooo, I can't die. Help me, God. I want to live. Nooohhh"

**Crunch**

Blood fell on the ground. the whole army screamed seeing their death.

"Huh, it's not the Person."

The blood was of the Wyvern, and Oliver was in front of the person, holding the wyvern back with Dual Hynoryens.

"You forgot what I said, More slay means more pay, so get your ass up and fight those filthy monsters, " He screamed

"SHOW ME WHAT YOU MADE UP OF"

He swiped his hand. The Wyvern rolled back and flapped its wing to balance.

Crack crack,

Oliver popped his neck and hands,

"The game is starting" His face turned blurry as he disappeared, the Wyvern got confused, it looked here and there.

"Hey, You don't look good."

Oliver appeared out of nowhere in front of Wyvern's forehead. He swung the blades, A huge arch of fire came out of the blades straight on Wyvern's head.

Roar

Oliver twisted and pushed the blades through Wyvern's chest and slashed downwards while holding both blades,

Splash.

He landed on his feet and Wyvern's blood poured on him. His whole body got covered in blood.

Grunt

Wyvern puked blood, Oliver bent and jumped near Wyvern, he disappeared and a blast occurred in Wyvern's chest. A hand holding Wyvern's heart came out of Wyvern's chest. Its chest was teared up by Oliver, He came out.

"see this heart, I want more of these",

'Hiern Brood '

The heart started glowing, he threw it in the tide.

'Booooom' 'boom boom'

Huge explosions destroyed the movement of the beast tide, they stopped for a second and then started running again.

Oliver's speed increased and he disappeared as he was about to reach the tide.

He appered above the tide,

Hyah

A giant tornado appeared it lifted a lot of beats, and Oliver is still airborne. He dashed,

Swish...swish.swish,swish

One after one the beats were tearing up. Oliver was moving at hypersonic speed. He reached the top and looked at the soldiers watching him with their jaws dropped, His eyes conveyed the message to the knights that they are useless.

He swung his sword and lighting staked the tornado, He kept swinging the sword, and with each swing, more elements were joining the tornado.

'Skalxafa hyponemsis'

A giant array appeared in the sky, and Oliver was in between the array. On the above flying like a God, He looked down all the beast. His eyes glowed, electricity sparks striking around his body. He lifted his hands,

"Kneel"

Dshhh

A giant dragon appeared out of the array, it launched itself toward the ground where the tide was running. The Knights vanished from the field.

Slamm

The whole field busted, half of the beasts were killed and half were thrown in the air.

The array disappeared. Oliver crouched in the air and

Boom

A crimson pattern formed in the sky as Oliver moved. One after one each Beast was killed.

The whole sky turned red from the blood. Oliver landed and it rained blood. The slashed parts of the beast were still in the air. Oliver bent his knees moved his hands, closed his eyes and he incanted "Hatmeout"

Fuii

The wind blew at an extreme rate in the field revolving around Oliver. Oliver opened his eyes and punched into the sky pushing the hypersonic winds up. This vapourised the remaining organs of the beast.

The sky was red from the blood and it rained. The field turned red by the blood. Oliver collected the cores of high-class beings and donated the cores of the lower class.

"Let's go to the capital, I am going Near King. Tell the knights to train hard and not disappoint me next time. You are in charge until I am gone. "

"Ok sir"

Oliver packed his things and left. After a few hours, he reached the capital. Near the castle, he visited his family and went to King.

"My lord, Oliver is here. "

"Send him here"

"Ok"

The knight guided Oliver to King's room.

"Aha, welcome Oliver Please have a seat. I have something interesting to discuss. "

"Yes my lord," Oliver sat, his blood was boiling. He wanted to tear the king. But he knew that will be the worst thing. Offending King is not affordable.

"I wanted to see you because I want to have a deal. Will you agree this deal is about your son?"

"What ! what does this bastard want to know, " Oliver thought in his mind, he then said, " I will see if I can agree"

"Good then, We all know, your Harizama Family is quite special. You are born with incredible powers. By each generation you grow stronger, Seeing that You are more powerful than your father and your son Ignatius will be stronger than you. So, You know that I love to fight stronger opponents. Your son is quite a good candidate. I want to ensure his safety till he becomes capable of battling me. That will happen when he will become 18 years old. I will make him my General. In the fight, I will not kill him. But you just have to accept one condition. That is your son has to wear this Ring. Do you accept?"

"Blackbeard is not a fool. He can't protect Ignatius just because he wants to fight. I don't know what is with this ring. I better decline this" Oliver thought and then said," Your Majesty, I can't accept this offer. Your Majesty will not give me a ring just because he wants to fight my son, there is some more reason."

King clapped his hands and a maid came out carrying a baby in her arms.

"Well, I quite expected this, You know I fell in love with a girl, while coming here I was tired. I sought shelter in a village, the village head was scared to see me but he offered me a good place to stay, and a good food. I invited him for a drink and told him that His service is good. We started drinking, one cup up then the other and the other and soon we were drunk. He asked me if I ever touched a girl, and I told him I had never. He smiled and offered me his daughter. Said You marry my daughter-have kid, blah, and blah. I looked at her face she was quite cute. I accepted his offer and now that girl is the queen. We fucked and Got a baby boy. I want that boy to grow up strong." He crossed his legs and moved his hand beneath his chin. He said,

" Now, I want my son to be the strongest, I want him to be in the spotlight all the time, Your son is capable of being stronger than you that means, To defeat him I will need to put some efforts. I am not saying he will be stronger than my son but My son will reach his true potential only when he acquire the throne and take over the kingdom as my heir, until then his strength will be on par with a general like you, that means until my son becomes the king He will be inferior in strength to your son. And I don't want that. If that kid studies in the same School as my kid, ofcourse A king's son being strong is nothing rare but A general's Kid you strong enough to be on par with my son will for sure bring him spotlight as the kid on par with prince, I don't want that for my kid. You know what I mean. SO, You have to accept this. This ring supress your son's powers by forming an array on him. This will decrease his performance, I now understand what it feels like when your son outperforms everyone, SO I want him to be the best, just like me. So I am just clearing Ignatius out of his way. I can't use my powers once Ignatius joins that Academy, due to the control of the Tribunal over the academy. I want him to be well educated and have an understanding of powers, At the same time, I don't want any competition for my son, So you have to sacrifice your child or your whole family will suffer. So, what now Suffering for your whole family or your son staying supressed until he is 18 and after that getting good life, you decide. "

The room got filled with Oliver's raging aura, The King himself felt that FIghting Oliver will not end in easy victory for himself. Oliver knew that he can't do anything, IF he goes against the King, he will have to face the whole kingdom, He can't take more than 2 generals at a time, Giving up to the situation, Oliver angrily accepted, "O.. Ohk. I wi....will. Made Him we..wear. this " Oliver stood up and took the Ring and left.

He walked towards the door, His mind going blank., his eyes were red. His body was enraged by the decision he just made.
