"Hu, where I am? Why it is so noisy"! As this soldier wakes up on a battlefield, he doesn't remember what was going on around him, The reason is simple he was hit by a magical attack from the enemy side.
"Luke wake up It is not a time to sleep, I don't know for how long I can keep up with their attacks" a man in shining armor spokes while catching his breath.
"Oh god of light give us your power to finish this awful devil, who has dared to attack our precious land" On the shoulder of that soldier, a fairy was chanting the support magic spell.
As Luke gains consciousness, he tries to stand up again, but his body is out of magic power, as he sees his comrades fight for their families, he stands up and takes a fighting stand, "I am not going to let my friends die again."
Barely able to stand, Luke looks at devils with blood thrust and changes at them with full power, These dark creatures have sharp claws and can shoot energy attacks from a distance.
As he thinks about all of that to analyse his opponent a sudden attack reaches him with full force from the sky, what the fuck now there is flying ones too, this is a bad day for sure: the captain of the squad says with a disappointing look.
Luke was watching all of that and he decided to speak to encourage his squad "Don't give up yet, think about your families, if we lose now, it will be the end for your purpose to fight."
A sudden silence occurs from the soldier's side, only the screams of the monsters can be heard, and the forest starts to look like hell that has been broken into it. until one soldier spoke with a dying voice "It does matter if I die today, I am going to save my dear daughter and wife no matter what," his one hand was eaten by a monster.
The blood was coming out of him like a water fountain, The fairy assigned to him tried to stop bleeding with her healing magic, Luke was watching all of that as he felt the determination of his comrades.
"Edward I am going to do that can you protect me for a few seconds I need to focus on my energy," Luke says with a smile on his face.
"No Luke you cannot use that kind of power now, especially if she is not here, You know what will happen to you if you use that kind of power without her support."
"But what other choice do I have Edward? Look at us if I don't do something lot of them are going to die, How are you going to answer to their family, You know very well how hard it is for the remaining ones to answer to the families of the dead," says Luke while slaying one of the devils, with his double-edged sword.
"But think about her, what Lucia will feel if something happens to you, how will I answer to her, if you died because of this power of yours, she had asked me to take care of you before she went to internal sleep," says Edward with a sorrowful expression.
"You don't worry buddy, I know she will be mad at me when she wakes up, but don't you worry, I am not going to die until I save my love either, so using my spiritual attack on this weak creature will not have a huge impact on me."
"Ok, I will put my life to protect you, Do your worst, guys formation B now," As soon as Edward says these words, a sudden look of despair falls to the faces of the soldiers, but no question asked they gather around Luke to protect him.
"I Luke a soldier of the Arcancia, to pay back my motherland for everything given to me since I arrived here and for my love, I pay a fragment of my soul to this attack," This was no magic spell but an oath to remember his reason to fight and to increase his attack power to reach different meanings of strength.
A burst of white energy came out from inside of Luke, and that energy started to softly reach the edges of his sword, everything around him became visible to him, and energy became his eyes and weapon, surpassing his usual limit.
Everyone was stunned by the amount of energy Luke was emitting at such a high speed, Even the monster had become aware of the danger and started their attack on him before he had a chance to swing his sword.
A flying low-grade dragon attacked them from the air by breathing fire at his squad, who were protecting Luke, and the devil also started attacking in formation, they started to act more smartly as if someone was giving them orders.
Edward attacks one dragon in the air with fire magic, and his fairy helps him to increase the damage of his attack, the support given by the fairies is the reason why the soldier continues to fight, for such a long duration.
As things started to become bad, Edward lost his focus for a split second, and one of the monsters stabbed him with his claws in the stomach, and blood started to flow out of him like water, "Is this it for me?" as he said this line while attacking with last bit of energy, he had killed the monster in front of him.
Something white came from his back, it was the hand of Luke shining as a pure white, "Not my friend not yet, you have a wife to see at home, take a rest, I will take care of them for you" and he disappeared.
All soldiers looked into the sky, with tears in their eyes, they were looking at the miracle that was floating in the sky, his aura was so pure that even fairies who are considered the purest and kind-hearted race were looking at it emotionally.
Edward lying on the ground speaks looking at Luke: Ah, this aura, no matter how many times I see it, I want to see it more: Then a sudden sad expression fell on his face, as he remembers the fate of Luke in the end, if this power continues to consume him.
Three different monsters died in the sky in a flash and fell to the ground, Luke attacked those monsters with all of the spiritual energy he had collected by sacrificing his soul.
Then he takes his sword in attack position, this time he moves slowly different from his last attack, which was invisible to the eyes of a normal human or monster.
Instantly, a heavy wind started to revolve around Luke, making monsters unable to go near him, in a moment, his sword moved with high velocity. Destroying everything in front of him including a part of the dark forest.
Nothing was visible to the eyes of soldiers, due to the dust all around them, until one other less impactful attack from Luke cleared the dust.
There were still some monsters left after that powerful attack, he came down to the surface to face the remaining devils that had been giving him a hard time with his friends a few moments ago.
He looked at those creatures and said, "Why do you hate us that much, why don't you remain in peace, with other living beings, what makes the death of others so special to you?"
As with determination Luke asked the devil for a reason, his face was sad. Like he did not want to kill them, and even felt empathy for them.
One of the devils spoke without using his mouth, it seems it was the king of these devils who was using them to communicate, We don't despise you young man, but it is in our nature to destroy this world.
"Why?" Luke looked at the devil and said "Nature can be changed if you want to.'
To this devil spoke "No young man it is not that easy, god has made us that way, we are here to make a balance of life and birth, and we must take care that no species reaches a certain height of evolution.''
"That means you will be facing me again and again in future, and I will not be sawing you mercy at all."
''Luke, was it? I will remember your name, and I hope you will succeed in defending your people, but let me warn you, it is not the other species you have to vary of, it is your kind," devils say with a sound of hatred.
"What does that mean?'' Luke surprised by the sudden warning asked ''Well more you fight for your country, the more you will know, young man Luke" The devil disappeared into thin air with this line.
"After ensuring that no monsters are around, he stops his spiritual energy from flowing out, and falls into the grass, dam I somehow succeeded in managing this power more in comparison to the last," he thinks to himself.
All of his comrades came to him with sad looks, 'Why is it that we are always saved by you," asked one soldier whose hands were cut off by a monster and all of them were injured, the fairy was sleeping in their hands after working hard for them.
"No, my friends, it is my duty, that no one dies in my look, Edward barely able to stand with the support of others, asked "Why, who has given you that duty? Why are you so dedicated to saving this country, you have no family here, except your love Lucia."
"Neither, you were originally from this kingdom, then why are you giving up your life for likes of us, why it is like that I am saved by you, again and again," as this question arises in the heart of Edward he hides his crying face, with hands.
To this Luke gave an Edward smile of pure emotions, "Oh Edward you are so naive sometimes," ha-ha, he smiled while hiding the pain he was feeling all over his body.
And then he gave an answer, which was not expected by anyone, ''Who said I don't have a family, I do have a great one, everyone gave a surprised look to Luke," Where are they?" asked one soldier with curiosity.
Luke laughed with the naiveness of his friends "It is you guys' dummies, and the people of this country, who give so much love to me, to a stranger, even if I die tomorrow for fighting for you guys, take my words I will never regret, so don't worry.''
"And this country is the reason that I was able to meet my soulmate Lucia, and live my life happily with her, that was also the reason that both of us have decided to defeat the demon king and evil gods to save this kingdom from him or other enemies."
"I remember when I first came to this kingdom, I did not have anything to eat, and I was hungry, it was Aunty Celie who gave me good food to eat, and even suggested I join the army, which was my greatest decision in life.''
''I can tell you, more but I guess you guys need more medical attention than me,"
"Support team call the medical team for squad one," says Edward while weaken voice.
It took Luke a week to recover from his excessive use of spiritual energy, but he was back to full power.
But still, even after 6 months, there was no way to wake up the sleeping fairy Lucia, Luke visited her in the hope that she might wake up and say to Luke, I missed you, but the curse that was given to her by the ancient goddesses was not that easy to break.
But fairies were also to their full power, as they eventually took back their magic from nature, and even joined back to their duties.
As for the soldiers, all of them returned to their homes to their families, to tell the tails of their stories, but everyone had to hold back to tell anything about their hero, because his power was state secret, and no one was allowed to talk about them.
Next, Luke decides to go on the long journey in search of goddesses that had cursed his love till death and some high-level cursed magic expert tells him that the only way to stop this curse is to kill that individual goddess.
