Chapter 0: prologue.
In a small green continent, approaching the night it was possible to see a fortified city.
Its walls were grandiose and showed a fortified defense, the interior of the city was illuminated by torches that were placed in the corners of the houses that illuminated the dark streets.
The rock path was even larger, being possible to see a castle with dark bricks that mixed with the dark night surrounded by loaded clouds.
Inside the castle it was possible to see a route with several guards and creatures on the floor without life, they all led to a way with an open door giving a large staircase with even more monsters dead on the floor, but with presences at the top of the Stairs still showing life.
It was possible to see a man with white -haired, brown robes with bluish strokes, he held a book in his hands and had marks of burns and cuts on his body, seemed to breathe hard as he turned his face up Seeing the other four presences on the staircase.
There were also two more presences, a woman with long, brown hair, her bluish eyes contrasting with some blemishes of blood on her face. Beside him was a man with bluish hair with his head down, they both stared at two men who were already panting and staring at but exhaling an aura -shaped energy.
One of them was a tall man with large, blond hair that exuded a bright gold aura, his skin was tanned and his long, pointed ears. He wore a long black cloak already torn to half revealing several scars on his body that was covered with some black marks, he seemed to be more tired and with an irritated expression, while staring at his opponent he tightened his teeth and shouted.
"Stopping me now will condemn all my people and you know it, save an entire nation at the cost of a city of demon, you know your position here, Astel? Do you think it's right? "
The words were directed to a strong man holding a sword, the blade was gray with strokes of fire that roamed the whole thread of the blade exhaling an aura in vivid flames that also come out of his body, his eyes and hair were live scarlets alive His body was covered with scars with some injuries on his face and he had a serious look while facing his opponent.
The redhead pointed his blade to the blonde and then he took a deep breath, the flames of the sword shone even stronger that began to twist the vision that his companions had from the place, he looked calmly to his opponent and spoke.
"It's not about being right, but to do the right, paradiso. Humans are flawed and that is a fact, but I cannot let a people destroy as foolish, destruction is never a solution. "
As the words came out the atmosphere continued to heat and the oscillations in the view increased, listening to the phrase of Astel, Paradiso laughed and spoke.
"After all the struggles you caught, you still think there is a way to get a better place without sacrifices? Face the reality, Astel. They are the villains since they decided to use that weapon that will destroy the world even if it is not pointed to it, they will cause the end of everything, but not if I can stop. "
The smile soon changed and became a serious expression, the black marks on the blonde's body increased in size and focused on his right hand.
From there came a white and at the same time black flame, it was a material that seemed to deform the space around him as much as the flames of Astel, the flames completely inflamed Paradiso's hand and the black marks went to the right half of his face . His golden eyes now had the black surroundings as he stared at his opponent who positioned his sword in attack posture.
Both there had already given up convincing each other, in the end there was a last movement for both of them that happened in the blink of an eye.
Astel stepped deeply and Paradiso widened his eyes ready to respond to the advance, both hit and disappeared in the view of what they were from afar, in the end flam escaped by taking the vision of those there, letting only the noise of something tearing.
A few moments later, the atmosphere was still clear, the woman who was supporting the blue -haired man could observe what was happening, seeing only the shadows of the two near each other while still stared at.
The brightness was decreasing and she could see that Astel's sword had pierced the paradiso chest that stared at an irritated look while his hand still on flames beside Astel's face.
The blonde had missed, hitting only the corner of his forehead, causing a large cut that left the right area completely black, but without severe damage, except the black blood that dripped through the knight's face and dripped on the floor.
In the place there was only silence, until the elf showed a painful expression when he began to vomit blood, it was a lethal blow to anyone and paradiso remained with an irritated expression, his view gradually darkened and he spoke while he was panting.
"You won't stop the calamity."
Even with difficulty the elf spoke and his body gives in, Astel looked with a frustrated expression as he saw the flames of the elf's arm decreased as the blonde's body fell to the floor making a dry noise as the blood was beginning to run.
As she watched from afar, seeing the conclusion of the fight, the woman touched the shoulder of the blue -haired man who seemed to wake up and situate himself of what was happening.
Still with a tired view he put his hand inside his cloak, from there he took a porcelain statue with cream color that was the sculpture of a chained woman, in his leg there was a space for something similar to a shield and a space in your bust as if it were for a great handcuff.
Soon the woman would take her hand to her ear and from there she took a large broche -shaped earring, so she was starting to walk along with the blue -haired man approaching Astel.
The two looked at the knight who continued to face the blonde on the floor already with his blood dripping, the woman approached and spoke.
"It's over ... do you think we did it right?"
The words came out with a certain fear and Astel listened as he continued to look at Paradiso, after that he took a golden ring from his finger that had a sudden shine along with the woman's statue and earring. Still with a thoughtful look the knight spoke.
"We had to do it, whether this is right or not, only the future will tell us."
The objects had a stronger glow and suddenly a bluish and electric trace turned them on, with the support of the knight the blue -haired man could approach and point the statue.
Approaching the objects of the statue, the ring was in space for the handcuff and the brooch took the place of the shield, as they approached they were attracted to a force that took them out of their bearers' hand and made the full object that emitted a bluish aura.
Taking possession of the now complete statue, Astel put the object lying under the blonde's chest.
In moments the eyes of the statue opened revealing a bluish shine, from the golden ring came out currents that grew and covered the whole body of paradiso.
As the chains ran through his body, the stamps were created that joined the blonde's legs and arms, creating an iron mask with space only for his eyes and the chains soon arrested the mask.
Paradiso's body was raised and the statue appeared wide walls of something like porcelain but molded beginning to cover the blonde's body.
The combatants who had faced Paradiso stared at a worried expression, but the knight remained serious as he stared at his eyes still shining in red.
The porcelain began to form the coffin that reached the chest of the elf that remained inactive as they stared at the darkness in the blonde mask.
The coffin covered half of his face, everything seemed to run correctly until Astel squeezed his eyes and his companions walked away to see that in the darkness of the mask there was still something.
A golden and alive eye watched them, no matter how hard he could observe everyone there and the darkness hid their intentions, but everyone in the room knew that it would not be enough to kill him.
Even though others stared at a certain fear, Astel continued to face Paradiso as his opponent understanding that it would not end even after their fight.
The blonde's body was totally porcelain and after that the brightness of the eye disappeared, even after covering the whole body, the porcelain formed a large coffin that was beginning to be covered with the golden chains.
In its center emerged a shield similar to the brooch and from there the small statue has come out, seeing that the knight caught the object still in his hands that was beginning to lose its shine along with the brooch and the ring that became silver color .
Approaching the knight, the woman was looking at the statue and then to the coffin with a worried expression, so she would take her hand to her forehead looking uncomfortable and then spoke.
"It doesn't seem to be over ... or rather, it doesn't look like it will end."
Astel just heard the woman's phrase and squeezed the statue harder, the blood on her face continued to drip with the black color, a few moments later the coffin gave back making a stuffy noise that raised dust.
