Outskirts of the light village,
If you walk five kilometres inside the forest from Villege gate, you find a tree, 150 meters tall, called the parish, due to convergent evolution it looks like a world tree but is still too small to compare with it.
A blond-haired boy was sitting in the shadow of a tree, he was holding a clay tablet in his hands, and he was writing something on that clay tablet. the drops of sweat can be seen on his forehead, and hihis handsewerehivering because of fear of the tablet in his hand. after some beats, he completed writing something on a clay tablet. Sinister-looking mana orb shoots out of a clay tablet towards the sky.

Mcllow Barony, Ainsworth Duchy
Pov: Wilson (butler of Beron)
My master James von Mcllow was a well-repeated man inside the whole barony. But, after that dark gild incident, all thing started to fall apart,
one day some people from the mysterious criminal organization 'dark gild came to our barony, proposing Berone to join Dark Gild because of the vast natural resources of the barony, they want to construct their base inside the forest near barony.
But my master rejected them. after two weeks some rumours start formulating around the kingdom that my master is buying and selling slaves!?
even after the whole incident, all servants and people of the barony who know the truth, never believe those rumours, we still respect our master from the bottom of our hearts and look up to him.
"I'm sorry master for being late, here's your te- " Wilson opened does of Baron's room, the thing he saw inside, will completely change his life!

Mcllow Barony was like medium size modern citer, having mana-powered vehicles was a common thing in this world, and it can be compared to cars on earth and also called cars. even a train exists in this world that uses magic just like all other things.
but at this moment the streets of Barony were the quietest places you can find. because of unknown reasons, the whole barony was in lockdown!!!!
"any clue how the killer entered or fled Baron's room?" asked Deneal Megnus the investigator of this murder case to Wilson, he was a man with brown hair and black eyes, wearing a dark green coloured military uniform, and four stars can be seen on his shoulders, he was second in chief of intelligent and investigation department or known as 'kings shadow' of the human kingdom.
"no, when I entered the room, the master was on the ground, his whole body was pale and all mana in his body was been corrupted, he was dead," said Wilson, from the tone of his voice even a fool can understand that he's having a hard time accepting reality. one moment his master where alive and next instant when he comes back after bringing his tea his master was dead?!
"any suspects? rivel, family member, or servant who looked suspicious before or after the death of Beron?" asked Deneal to Wilson with observing Beron's room. he can sense traces of the same dark aura as Lucas, but he's having a hard time identifying the exact source.

"yes, one of the vampires find his location, his living in a village near Silvermoon City called Light Village," said Vena, sh who was setting on Victor's lap.
"Also I found vice guild master of dark gild 'Igaris' in the light village, I think his manipulating our golden goose," said Vena, her lips curved upward, and deep hatred toward dark gild can be seen in her beautiful ruby eyes.

"nux use your sword and don't let it strike from behind," said Tony. he was come to C-gerd dungeon 'death pit' to train his young brother.
"you have to kill them, only subduing doesn't work for a monster, even in their last breath they want to kill us," said Tony with a solemn look on his face his younger brother is too big of a softy, he never killed any living being since he born.
pov; nux
in my previous life, the world in which I had lived was peace full. comper to this world, where magic and monster exist, where power is everything. you have to kill.
I was the son of the strongest duke so I was still able to save myself. but now I have to kill the monster in front of me.
I held an iron sword with both of my hands and brought it down towards the earth python's head. but its hade was reinforced with earth magic, as a result, the metallic sound of iron colliding with stone can be here on the whole 5th floor of Dongune.
"your lacking intent to kill, you're never able to kill your enemy with that banged swing of yours," said Tony, he dashed forward and slash through the head of Earth python.
"try on this one" Tony pointed toward the earth python which was half as long as the previous one.
nux rushed towards the newly arrived python but before he get the monster it ran away, it was not nux who the monster feared it was another monster that was about to appear which can only be found in B rank Dongunes boss room.
suddenly temperature of the fifth floor of Dongune starts to rise at a frightening rate, and red hot lava can be seen in one of the corners of the fifth floor. and dragon-like hade was coming out from the lava. like it was finding its prey.
It was lava druk, one of the sub spices of the dragon. It was a level 50 fire elemental monster. Which only found in B-rank or higher dongun's or inside underground lava channels
