Everybody took this opportunity to rehabilitate their life and gain some control over the situation they had to endure, while Ramiel was with a few of his personnel discussing matter that they need to implement at soon as day breaks, when somebody just walks into the barrier mist like it was nothing and just walk up to them indiscriminately attacking, paralyzing and tossing everybody aside as if they were small kids, thankfully his mother Allatou was already resting with Hilas and Irles Filri by her side, while the King Araqiel Semalion Demiurgos and his family were also safe and in a different location inside the mist barrier.
panic broke out as the remaining Corvanian people who stayed saw what was going on took up arms but something was wrong they all fell to to the ground and went to sleep
among those who got attacked were Lady Laerdya Galadhiel and Jelbebor, Fronkkem and Muldrulir the Dwarfen siblings, including Echo and Beta and five elder Corvanian knights,
Ramiel recovered quickly and just rush up and ran toward the person who attack them, the being was wearing typical noble dress clothing and had red eyes with a long scar on her left cheek and dark long hair and stood around six feet tall and was leaned a very attractive woman, she just stood and accepted his frontal attack like it was nothing all of Ramiels attacks and mace swings were all connecting but it wasn't doing any damage,
Echo also cast a binding and poison spell, while Beta also join Ramiels onslaught of physical attacks but it was useless
She seemed to be unfazed by his attempts to harm her. Ramiel was taken back by her strength and composure. He had never encountered someone like her before. As he continued to fight, he noticed that she moved with a fluidity and grace that was almost otherworldly. It was as if she was dancing rather than fighting. Ramiel couldn't help but be mesmerized by her movements. Despite his best efforts,
Echo instantly flew away and landed on top of a wagon breaking it in half, while Beta receive a string slap instantly rendering her unconscious, and the intruder simply cast a paralyzing spell toward the rest.
Ramiel couldn't land a single critical or painful blow on her. It was as if she knew exactly what he was going to do before he even did it. Finally, after what felt like hours of fighting, Ramiel collapsed from exhaustion. The woman stood over him, looking down at him with a mixture of pity and amusement.
"You have much to learn,"
"He has been too soft and lenient toward your kind!"
"you have skills but it's not worth my effort to fight back!"
"Remember boy, this is the eleventh realm your family legacy means nothing to us who are far higher than your own,"
Ramiels movements were direct and not even holding back each of his punches resonated with force and spend that no ordinary being could withstand, but the blows he gave out were strong as the impact gave out a thundering sound and vibrations in the air was pushing the debris around them to scatter outward.
His opponent didn't even move, Ramiel was struggling to maintain his footing under the sheer force of his attacks and was bouncing back to him. With each strike, the air crackled with energy and the ground shook beneath their feet. It was clear that this was no ordinary person
the woman with red eyes with a long scar on his left cheek gave Ramiel a solid punch in his stomach as he fell down, and Gasping for air, she introduce herself as Astrath one of the twelve and left with a simple remark
"Not all war must have a reason!"
then she turned around and just disappeared into the shadows.
Ramiel looked up and understood what Astrath meant that there were more powerful being in the 12 realms capable of tossing his mother and the king of Corvania like rag dolls,
Ramiel looked up and understood what the man name Astrath meant that there were more powerful being in the 12 realms capable of tossing his mother and the king of Corvania like rag dolls,
. It was a chilling realization that shook him to his core. Astrath was a formidable opponent, but now it seemed that he was merely a pawn in a much larger game.
The thought of these powerful beings lurking in the shadows sent shivers down his spine. He knew that he needed to tread carefully if he wanted to survive in this world of magic and intrigue.
As he pondered his next move, he couldn't help but wonder who these mysterious beings were and what their motives were. Were they allies or enemies? And how could he hope to stand against them when even the most powerful rulers in the land were no match for their might? Despite the overwhelming odds,
he refused to give up. He knew that he had come too far to back down now. With a steely determination, he set out to uncover the truth behind these powerful beings and find a way to defeat them once and for all.
this made Symbiote Homunculus Collective who were far from him, feel Ramiels anger toward what happened, he already understood that being arrogant and complacent with his ability will be his downfall, Ramiel also know there are indeed more powerful being in the land, but why did being named Byrsos charge at them just to openly state this to their bruised ego
everyone finally regains control over their bodies, gathered their thoughts and started to discuss what happened a moments ago, with this Ramiel could only come up with his own hypothesis on this matter,
"It's a fair warning to all of us, the fact remains, that person showed no murderous or killing intent toward us as if she was actually formerly saying that there are powerful being pulling the strings.
"behind her actions. It's possible that she was being controlled or manipulated by these entities, which could explain her behaviour. Regardless of the reason, we need to be cautious moving forward and take steps to protect ourselves from any potential harm. "
"This could mean increasing our security measures, being more vigilant in our daily routines, and staying alert for any signs of danger. It's also important to keep an open mind and consider all possibilities when it comes to understanding the motives of others."
her last words made him conclude his speculation by hearing her say
"Not all war must have a reason!"
But as of now, they need to concentrate on the war campaign to reclaim the land and save as many as they can, the plan to temporarily shelter the first batch of Corvanian people thankfully was already finished when Astrath rudely attack them, tomorrow will be the start of the renovation rescue and hunt,
But in Ramiel's mind, he was desperately trying to understand every small detail that Astrath had shown and said, Mother Allatou gave Ramiel some advice seeing and hearing what just happened, she could only affirm his conviction,
"Remember when you first got here son?"
"you were very optimistic and, even convince me that this war-torn world is not just about gaining and having power,"
"but the connections we make, and things we do to make life better!"
"Like before, I just want to have a son that will make my life meaningful,"
"Just follow what drives your heart to move forward,"
"What is your reason son!"
"doing this, you will never stray from that goal!"
"My goal is to be with my family, friends and loved ones, and have a meaningful and comfortable life,"
"under the principles that I must Adapt, Learn, Overcome, and Survive!"
at the same time somewhere unseen by all stood a mountain its shadow covers the remaining structure of the royal castle, the same woman that attacked Ramiel was talking to a wounded person,
"Such a peculiar person, even if I had attacked him and his fellow comrades, he never lost composure ."
"Unlike the rest, they will instinctively retaliate and forget about the reason they came are here, but he stood his ground and made a proper assessment of the situation,"
"but I am still not convinced that he won't break under pressure, arrogance can be a deadly poison in any person's body, his achievements are truly beyond what anybody could have expected but,"
"he needs more experience and training, fighting these mindless pets will not make him grow,"
"he needs something that will truly shake his belief and personally see if can fulfil what he mentions about
"Adapting, Learning, Overcome, and Surviving"
"your newest student, must surpass the rest!"
