Chapter 68: Liberation Phase

Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Liberation Phase

" Slayer’s Mark? what the hell is it? " Ser Tristan asked himself!

{Skill, Slayer’s Mark: once this Skill is active, the user has absorbs the lifeforce of his slained victims }

" I can absorb the lifeforce of those I’ve slained? I wonder if I can absorb his lifeforce " Ser Tristan said, facing the lifeless body of Voltox when he stretched forth his hand.

\Skill: Slayer’s Mark is active/

[Congratulations, you have absorbed your first slained lifeforce, a total of a thousand years have been added to your life]

" Wow? a thousand years? to think I have the ability to convert lifeforces into years huh? If I have a thousand years to live, can I transfer a thousand years to my master.....?? " Ser Tristan asked himself!

He’s seen clouded in thoughts,

He glared at the corpse of Voltox!

Returning back to his normal self, he approached the unconcious body of Commander Dylan, he gently lifted Commander Dylan up, placing him on his shoulders, he went, took Ser Jiyer along, and he went in search of survivors.

But only a few soldiers Commander Dylan brought along were left alive!

The black barrier casted by Voltox was tied to his life, the moment his life ended, it vanished without a single trace, the forces of the Black Corps came rushing in after the barriers had disappeared.

Suprised to see such brutalities, the Mongolin County had become a deadland after encountering a Baron level demon, they waited in the Mongolin County until Commander Dylan and Ser Jiyer were back to their feets!

[Meanwhile]

A smirk escaped the lips of Kyle Reinhart, interuppted by the skill effects of Ser Tristan, a mark appeared on the wrist of Kyle Reinhart, Enzerath manifested itself, taking the form of a little child!

" My creator! " He spoke out.

" I know Enzerath but to think there will be a Skill that binds myself and Ser Tristan together, a master and slave bond, I don’t know it’s full effects but this is better, I have a better sword to use now "

Kyle said, he giggled softly!

" Commander Dylan survived as well, I guess the Baron Level Demon wasn’t as destructive as we predicted, perhaps has this era weakened the lesser demons and the Nameks? " Enzerath questioned!

" I doubt so.....It’s not the demon was weaker but Tristan was stronger than we had anticipated, he’s linked with the dragon heart without any risk, It’s more like he was born to house the dragon heart in him "

" I guess I chose the right person to use this power on but I did promise you something right? Commander Dylan survived the fatal attacks of the demon, I believe he’s the perfect host " Kyle said!

" We don’t have any much time "

[Two Days Later]

[Location: The Senate Headquarters]

A general meeting has been issued, with all members of the Senate present, they were all sitted before the discussion table, cladded in their silver Reinhart’s Household cloaks, all members of the Senate are official Reinharts.

Reinharts selected from the Branch Families in influence the Dukedom!

" Hmmm, to think the Black Corps were able to achieve this much, crushing a Baron Level Demon isn’t a small feat " Senator Claudio Von Reinhart spoke out, addressing his fellow Senators!

He held the letter sent by the Black Corps!

" True, we have to give credits where credits is due but to think a Baron level demon was hiding right under our nose, the Mongolin County was directly under our control and yet such things happened "

" Its a huge blow to the Senate " Senator Arnold Von Reinhart said, a grey eyed Reinhart and a nephew of the Duke, he’s seen resting his back on his seat with his arms folded, still trying to digest the news.

" Senator Arnold is right, this is a huge blow to the Senate.....I initially suggested that the special force, the Black Corps be released to take care of the issue to determine if they deserved that position "

" But I guess I can’t oppose their certification as a Special Force, but now.....we need to make sure this doesn’t happen again, there must not be a single demon hiding under our noses " Cecilia Von Reinhart declared.

" What do you suggest Cecilia? " Claudio questioned!

" I believe we must invoke the third law, send a total of two Knight corps and four military units to every county and barony under our jurisdiction, we must unleashing the purging decree of those with relations to the demonic religion of Pentagram "

" We must do this without the Duke being aware of what has just happened, if the news gets to his ears "

" This will be an opportunity for him to lower our influence within the Dukedom, we must do this in silence "

" destroy all that’s left of the demonic order and erase all traces "

" We must not face such humiliations again " Cecilia answered.

The entire hall became dead silent and all attentions drifted to Amalek Ve Reinhart, the corps commander of the Senate, one of the three heads of the Senate and the youngest brother of the Duke himself.

" Corps Commander.....what do you have to say about Cecilia’s suggestion? " Garfield Von Reinhart asked, he’s one of the sixteen Senators who rarely get involved in the politics of the Crossword.

But this humiliation is something they must involve themselves in!

" I believe there’s no opposition to the discussion made by Cecilia Von Reinhart right? If so then we will be invoking the third law, a purging decree will be unleashed, within a span of a month, the Senate will take full control "

" Any traces of the demonic within our lands must be purged and those involving in Pentagram will be executed on sight, as a gift to the Black Corps....they are permitted to rule over the Mongolin County "

[Location: Mongol County]

" Look who is finally awake " the voice of Ser Tristan was heard, he’s seen standing with his arms folded, facing the opened windows, a loud groan was heard, Commander Dylan opened his eyes to see the elite members of the Black Corp present in the room.

They’re present in one of the buildings yet to be demolished by those ferocious attacks!

" Ser Tristan? what are you guys doing here? and where am I? " Commander Dylan asked, he’s wokeb up to the memories of falling to the nefarious attacks of the noble ranked demon, he tried moving.

He winced out in pains, falling back to his bed!

" You aren’t in a stage to move Commander Dylan, you were severely injured in your battle against that noble demon, I guess it wasn’t easy " the voice of Major Saige was heard, Commander Dylan breathed a sigh of relief!

" Since you guys are here now, I guess it’s over right? " Commander Dylan asked!

" Yes it’s over, I defeated and killed the Baron level demon, It wasn’t an easy fight but I struggled to win, we lost quite the numbers of soldiers but what matters to us is that we retained our honor "

" And we never lost you and Ser Jiyer during this catastrophe, the Senate has certified our position as members of the Special Forces ordained by the Duke himself and the Mongol County is rightfully ours "

" In this land....we will build a barrack greater than anything that has ever existed and a great army will be formed to glorify our liege, He whose reigns will be the greatest to exist " Ser Tristan stated.

Commander Dylan faced the ground, his eyes filled with sadness!

" You will have to choose someone befitting for that role, I’m nothing but a mere fool, how could I lead an army that will become the greatest in the future when I couldn’t even defeat a Baron ranked demon " Commander Dylan said.

" Your words are quite funny Commander Dylan, do you doubt the decision of our liege? " Ser Tristan questioned, all attentions were drifted towards his direction, his question came as a shock to the Commander.

" No, I’ll never do something as foolish as doubting his grace.....why would you ask such a stupid question? " Commander Dylan asked.

" Well If you don’t want to doubt his decision then you should have known he wouldn’t sent me here if he knew you were going to win against that demon, you lost because he predicted it but even with his predictions, no one stands against your position as the supreme commander of the Black Corps "

" That’s your role and your personified duties, to lead the marching army "

" I’m a mere slave to his grace, a blade who will slay every monster that crosses his path, my job here is done so I’ll be leaving for the Academy tonight, you still have a lot of chances to grow stronger "

" I’m stronger than you because of his grace upon me.....I wonder how strong you will be if his grace reaches you, this land is already a wasteland, a gift to the Black Corps as a result of destroying that ranked demon "

" Turn it into an utopia.... housing the armies of his magesty, that’s your duty "
