Amara was scared as hell, but she stood in front of his big brother. They both stood in the middle of the garden, opposite to each other. Their father sat on a chair, worried but not opposing Rameel's way. "If you can even touch me, I'll let you join a fighter's guild. You have time until you are tired enough that you can't even move your body. Or you just give up on this foolish tantrum of yours."
Amara looked even paler now, Rameel was on another level and it was painfully clear that touching him would be impossible even for a B Grade Prodigy Knight. "Don't worry, I won't be using any kind of Prodigy, and I won't step out," Rameel created a 5-foot-long metal rod and made a circle around him. The circle was about 8 feet long or so.
"From this circle," The rod disappeared from his hand. Amara gulped, The terror in her eyes seemed clear but it suddenly got replaced with hope. She agreed to the challenge by nodding his head up and down. "Let's begin…" Rameel said. Amara ponytailed her hair, and started running towards Rameel, suddenly a big rock covered in fire came flying from the sky and fell right between them. The rock crashed down on the ground, the blast from it sent Amara flying.
Rameel frowned and quickly looked at the sky, hundreds of fireballs came flying and crushed down around the palace. But none of them seemed to have touched any house, because just before they could touch and destroy anything a force-field started covering the whole House of Inventum. "It's no ordinary attack, it is howl to the war." King Zoraiz said as he stood up with his hands pointing at the sky.
"These fireballs are certainly thrown from afar because these weren't that strong." He looked at Butler who was already running towards Amara. "Get her inside," then he looked at Rameel. "Rameel, go lead the guild out from the walls and meet them out there. We can't make this place a battlefield."
Rameel without saying a word started running and used his knives and chains to jump over the palace's wall. The second he touched the ground, he sensed something, fear and terror. Everyone seemed to be running wild. Rameel knew instantly what to do, he climbed on a house's roof and shouted. "Calm down," Rameel took his hood off, the second people took a glimpse of Rameel they stopped moving. "It's Master Rameel!" A man from the crowd shouted.
"You need not worry, citizens. We will protect you, my squid should be on their way. You just be calm and get in your houses, where it's safe."
Rameel's words put their worries to rest. 'Now, I should go out and see who is attacking us head-on. Most of the Prodigy Knights are out on war on the battlefield.' Rameel thought to himself, 'My whole squad is out there as well, so I can't rely on backup. I'll have to do stop them on my own,' as he started jumping from one house to another, "Guards no matter what happens don't open the gate." He shouted as he created a few spears and started throwing them in a pattern on the gate.
He jumped on the lowest spear and used others as stepping stones to reach the top of the gate. "I knew it couldn't be just a few people," He laid eyes on the mountain ahead, which was covered with people wearing black colored full face masks with a strange symbol painted in red on those masks.
"Tsk. What the hell are they doing here?" Rameel said to himself, "We have been on good terms with Star Kingdom for a while now but what does this sudden betrayal mean?"
There are many nations and kingdoms around in Prodigy Realm, but
The main and strongest Kingdoms are The Star Kingdom, The Moon Kingdom, The Sun Kingdom, and The Sea Kingdom. And these four Kingdoms inhabit 60 percent of the Prodigy realm while, the Quwahar Kingdom which Ariel came from, inhabits 40 percent of the realm alone and has the strongest Prodigy Users. All Kingdoms except the Star Kingdom joined forces and started a war against Quwahar that has been ongoing for 1 century now.
But, now The Star Kingdom has joined the war and not just joined the war but they came right for Noble Houses.
"Master, they are being led--" A guard was about to say something. But, Rameel cut him off, "Yeah, I know him, he is from Elemental
Rangers, they are the same as a Prodigy Knight Master and said to be as strong as one too. And he is one of the strongest of them." As he jumped off from the gate. "Let's test that theory."
In House of Elysium, Masir returned to the morgue. "Where is Ihaan?" Anika asked while being seated on the chair. "I left him in the Desert in which House of Augmentum is situated."
"Why is that?" Anika sighed. A man came rushing through the door
"Miss Anika, there is an army of Star Kingdom troupes marching towards House of Elysium. And King isn't here at the moment."
Anika rushed out from her chair and ran outside swiftly the second those words hit her ears. Masir didn't follow her, he just vanished in the air. "I have to inform it to Prodigy King." He thought to himself.
"An attack on the House of Elysium, that's not possible—If they have attacked on House of Elysium that means---" Amir frowned and rushed out from his bed. "They must have attacked other Houses too."
Anika stood in fear as she laid eyes on the army of hundreds of Prodigy Users marching towards them. "This is maddening, we are not fighting guild, and there isn't much I alone will be able to do."
The star Kingdom had attacked three main Houses at a time, with thousands of troupes led by nine of their best warriors. But Quwahar had not hoped for this in the least, only a handful of Prodigy Knights were present in the Kingdom at the time. But, in war, you must see when your enemy is at his weakest and then strike with full force. And they didn't even expect their trusted allies to suddenly attack them. Ihaan and Rameel stood in front of two armies and were ready to demonstrate their power, even though they were alone but Anika was just a healer, she was terrified because there were thousands of patients in the infirmary and she had to evacuate them and fight off an army of troupes at the same. How will they fare in this unexpected attack? Will new legends be made or they will be forgotten from the pages of history?
Will this be the end or a new beginning for Ariel and others? A new era is at hand, no matter how this war unfolds. It will take a toll on both sides, no matter who wins or loses. Thus the Invasion of Quwahar arc begins…
