Chapter 31 - blue raid begins

Yin woke up early for the big day , the day he will finally get to use his powers and it won't fail , his heart was racing, fear of getting beaten by the snakes lurking in ascendance--tatrus worshippers.

"They will stop at nothing to either kill me or....what am I even saying , they can't try persuading me to join their team , ive killed far too many of them , now all they want is my death ". Harley held yin's hand and said , " I forgive you ", Harley and Annie hugged yin , yin in shock turned and smiled ,with great warmth in his heart he hugged them back.

Yurdika appeared and called their attention , yin and the rest gathered around her , " we will have to start leaving , the blue dragon raid is in 4 days ", yin sat on his bed and told her about Jade haunting spirit.

Yurdika smiled and said , " I have already taken care of that , I sensed his presence around you , but check is there still any disturbance ? ", Yin did not feel his presence anymore and smiled , yurdika stood up and told them to prepare to head out , just then a knock came on the door , it was jasy.

She folded her arms and said , " so you have finally remembered your place , 'destined one ' , yin smiled and told her about the plan.

" Well , of course I have to come ,".

Harley clapped his hands and said , " the more the merrier ".

As they headed on ; out of ascendance , the sergeant patted yin's back , " be careful , and come back to us alive , may the gods go with you " , yin smiled , the whole students were gathered at sergeant back cheering for yin .

***

Later on they arrived , the deserted land, Hermes , the whole sky , purple and the once good land destroyed due to the blue dragon and it's poison .... Yin shooked his head and remembered,

Seven years ago ....

The tatrus first disciple sat and called , fade and Julius , the guards of the Hermes kingdom , " I'm offering you both a great opportunity , providing you don't fail me ,

Fade and julius stared at themselves in confusion .

The disciple brought out a ball , " do you know what this is called...

It's a demon ball...

We also call it , ' stone of revelation ' , you know , we are decieved by our past heros and dare I say it .... useless disciples of those times , they said only use it when you know there is no more hope left ....

You see ...the demon ball grants you the power to transform at will into a frightening beast , unable to change back into human ...

But this gives and ehances the power you already wield , and with anger and frustration, you only become unstoppable...

Your people betrayed you , enforcing laws that are contratry to what you believed in , not to even mention the new elected queen that banished you guys out of the kingdom...

I giving you this power , fueled by your quest for revenge ...,no one will be able to stop you, all I need you to do is simple ...

Fade clenched his fist and replied , " what do you ask for ? ".

The disciple smirked and said , " the successor of yurdika has managed to defeat kaisurus and obtained his heart ...

A great dragon , defeated by a mere human ...

Fade in disbelief asked , " the demons curse , the Chambers , the giant skeleton...all this are enough to kill him , who is he ? ,

The disciple smiled and replied , " he just a boy who happens to have the favour of sergeant and his preists , I'm very sure they accompanied him into the tomb ...

I'm not sure of what happened or how he defeated yurdika's evil self , but I know there's a way to stop him and be able to bring back our demon god , tatrus , his coming gets more closer and closer every day .

The next raid is in one month time , he's coming for the blue dragon ,-- fade interrupted and said , " but the blue dragon is powerful ".

The disciple stood up , backing them , " that's what I thought , but we can't say for sure , and we can't let a great treasure pass us by ,

This is where you two comes in...

Fade with your power of deadly poisons , when you consume this , with your anger and rage , it will only make you more stronger than ever , you must allow the dragon eat you , then you will be able to posses it , when the dragon is defeated ,you will break out , unleashing your power at its fullest and bring back the dragon's heart.

Julius , the queen will send her guards for maximum protection of the tower walls and where she lays ,

A chance to show and overwhelm everyone with your power , you must kill all the guards and the queen ...

But I can assure all this won't be possible if you don't take this ball .

Fade and julius turned at theirselves and nodded their head in agreement , they took the demon ball from the disciple hands and transformed instantly into demons ...

Fade was the worst of them all , his poison was more menacing than before , he left quickly for the blue dragon.

The Hermes knights guarding the outskirts of Hermes ; where the dragon laid , knew fade was no longer normal and chased after him but there were no match...

They slaughtered everyone who came in their way ...

Soon enough , fade arrived at the dragon's cave where it slept ...

The dragon slowly opened it eyes and laughed saying , " I'm so bewildered that I don't even know what to say ...

It's been a long time , since inferior creatures dared to stand before me ...

Have to come to scarifice yourselves ?

back at veilspire , the other disciples discussed amongst themselves ,

Cardinal ling crossed his arms and said , " but why did they turned against their people this way ".

Oldin smiled and glanced at the window , looking at Hermes kingdom from afar of , he replied , " the tree of life would once after six years pick a mighty brave human to oversee and rule it's people , fade and julius were both great warriors and fighters in the kingdom...

On that fateful day , the tree picked sylvestia , the crippled girl instead of one of them ...

In shock , they both question this action saying , " why will the tree choose sylvestia instead of them? , She was practically friends with humans...

And has never trained to be queen ! ".

They were both outraged , and couldn't accept the tree's choice , they rebelled against the kingdom but in no time , they banished them from the kingdom ...their last act of rebellion was to steal a seed from the tree of Life , but they were ambushed by a young elf who hasn't earned the moon title yet.

They barely managed to escape with their lives , so tell me what would you do to such people who betrayed you like that ?".

" I will kill them.....at all cost ". Ling replied.

" Exactly! ". Oldin smiled.

Fade dashed after the dragon , but the dragon simply flew up and swallowed him alive ,

But the dragon's eyes widened as it felt a great pain in it's stomach , it coughed out blood continuously , fade had made his way

to the stomach of the dragon and started releasing his poison ,

The blue dragon was smart and since it knew it was about to die of poisoning , it flew very fast towards the tree of life , Julius followed the dragon hanging on to its tail , as he spotted the queen chamber..

He dropped down towards the chambers , because of his reduced congnitive powers , he fell in the wrong place and as spotted by higher class guards , he finished them all with his increased strength ,
