Wind howled and rain poured on the mountain peak of the soul devouring clan,where a man was standing on a pool of blood with madness in his dark eyes holding a sleeping infant in his left arm and a black odachi in his right arm,his black long hair that reached his waist was covered with blood as he looked around him children,women and men lay dead on the ground all around him massacred.The man looked up at the rift that was opened in his clan's barrier in the sky where three new enemies entered wearing gold armor with sigil of a lion and the letter E written under the sigil. As the three people entered and landed on the ground Karl Crimson could see the appearance clearly one was an tall man wearing a gold armor helmet over his face while the two behind him was a women with silver hair,silver eyes with a scar on her left face cheek and a man with brown hair black eyes and with a body of a gaint and green scales visible on his face. The tall man looked at Karl and began to speak.
"Karl Crimson you are a true devil,why do you keep on fighting while knowing your kind brings only disaster upon our world, how many more people and regions must be devoured by you devils so that you can see that every last one of you profane beings must be eradicated from this world"
After saying these words the leader of the saint's of Elvaro looked around the mountain peak and saw the bodies of his men that number up to five hundred thousand out of the six hundred thousand soldiers that he sent were laying dead on the ground some headless and some cut clean from the waist and what drew his attention the most were five saint's that lay dead in front of Karl Crimson.
"To think five of our best saint's were not enough to deal with you crimson truly astounding if only you were not defiled you would have been of great use to our master"
Karl crimson looked around for awhile and opened his mouth and sighed " for the last thousand years my bloodline has been tainted by profanity, we of the soul devouring clan caused atrocities throughout the five regions, unwillingly we have spilled innocent blood and spread profanity in these world and for that we deserve death, bit this child that i hold in my arms is not like the other provane children that my clan has given birth too, he is different look at him, he has no deformities he has no madness in his eyes he is normal and he has brought me back from profanity even if it's only for a fleeting moment,for his sake saint of elvaro i have to fight and kill all of you to ensure his life doesn't end before it even begins for i know the pilgrims of Elvaro have no mercy for the profane.
Sacrilege! An Saint of Elvaro screamed out
"You dare to call our lord by his divine name and you are wrong Karl crimson death is the only mercy we offer to your kind" After saying these words the leader of the saint's of Elvaro walked slowly towards Karl and pointed at him and while ordering the two people that stood behind him on his left and right
"Kill them both show them the mercy of our lord"
Both of the saint's began to walk towards Karl Crimson without hesitation slowly drawing they swords from the hilts before they could even come close to him a dark corrosive smoke suddenly enveloped the baby in his arm before any of them could react Karl suddenly disappeared from his spot and appeared infront of the saint with green snake like scales on his face and with a swift motion he cut through the saint's throat and out the back of his neck with his black odachi with a loud
Plop! The head of the saint fell down onto the ground. Karl disappeared and appeared infront of another saint once agian and with full force brought down his blade towards the silver haired saintess before his odachi could reach her face she suddenly lifted her sword and blocked his strike out of instinct and was pushed back back by the strike before the leader of the saint's of elvaro could come close to them Karl threw the baby in his left left arm towards the rift in the air and charged at the tall saint swords collided as the saint's fought Karl crimson was simultaneously trading blows with both saint stopping them from going after the baby that he threw out of the rift in the sky.
" Go after the baby saintess I will stall him for awhile" The leader of the saint's shouted. Before she could react Karl disappeared right before they eyes and appeared infront of the rift in the sky.
" Dammit!, what damn technique is he using to disappear righ infrot of our eyes and why is he so absurdly strong "
Karl stood in the air right in front of the rift with determination in his eyes and spoke
"Anyone that wants to take my child's life will have to go through me first" to think that I the calamity of the west will have such a ending I've spent all of my essence fighting those five saint's I can only sacrifice my life in this last attack atleast I will die sane.
Both saint flew in the air towards Karl unleashing bright and dazzling attack at him,unmoved Karl lifted his righ arm sword in the air and shouted
"Soul erosion!"
Blood crimson flames burst out of his body and like a tsunami as it began to spread throughout the mountain enveloping every living being that is still alive unbiased regardless of friend or foe.Blood spewed out of the eyes,ears and mouths of the remaining soldiers of Elvaro and the soul devouring clan member's that are still alive as the blood crimson flame eroded the souls and all of them simultaneously dropped dead onto the ground as the souls were extinguished by the blood crimson flames
Both saint's were shocked as the blood crimson flames were dancing around the bodies breaking through their protective aura and burning, eroding they soul's alive. The silver haired saint fell down from the sky and landed on her knees on the ground as she was being eroded before the flames could snuff out her life her commander flew down from the sky and landed before her and pulled out an golden lion artifact in the shape of a circle and screamed
Soul protection!
A bright golden light came out of the artifact and entered the bodies extinguishing they blood crimson flames in their bodies.
" To think he would enhance this move with his life energy how truly profane of him"
the leader of the saint's of elvaro said while looking around at the his dead soldiers
" but I guess he achieved his goal at the end"
" My lord what do we do now, must we chase after the infant." The silver haired saint said while coughing out blood.
"No,we will not chase after the child after all our souls have been eroded by his father's flame , which means the moment we get close to him the flames will activate agian, what we must do now is to get back to the church and report to the archbishop about what happend here and get our souls cleansed before the path that we cleared to get is closed. What a pity we lost too many soldiers"
" understood sir, but do we report to the church about the child that got away"
The silver haired saint asked with a trembling voice fear appearent in her question.
"Are you an idiot, the church doesn't allow any failure when it comes to the profane, There was never a child on this mountain do you understand?"
"Understood my lord"
Far away from the soul devouring clan in another region a dark corrosive smoke was floating above water down a river where reptilian beast and monster surrounded it, the dark corrosive smoke passed by provane animals and beast that lived in the water unbothered drifting towards the end of the river in the dark corrosive smoke cries of a child could be heard as the smoke reached the end of the river.At the end of the river was a port where ships and boats could stop and dock and five people sat on the back of gaint wolf as large as a cottage wearing black silver armor white a wolf sigil on the breast plate t guarding the port.The black smoke stopped before the port and revealed the baby inside it, All five men looked at each other and then and the baby with vigilance in their eyes.
"Is it normal?"
one of the guards asked a man in black wolf skin
" no, it cannot be normal if it was a normal child it wouldn't have made it here alive with all those things in the river"
" But it looks normal,let's call the captain she will be able to tell and give us orders on what to do with this thing before that let's be cautious"
one of the guards said while drawing his bow and aiming at the baby one activated an spell and a bright circle hovered above the him.. one of the guards took of riding on the back of the wolf to inform they captian..
A while later a blonde haired blue eyed slender women wearing white armor that has a wolf sigil on the right side of her breats plate came back with the guard she slowly walked towards the dark smoke and stood before the baby that's floating above water, she suddenly let out a white bright blinding light that shot towards the infant and entered it's body. The sky started to levitate and flew towards the blonde haired lady and landed in her arms.
"He is normal everyone,don't worry I've confirmed it now let me bring this child to our Queen"
The blonde haired women climbed ontop of a wolf with the child in her hand and rode through the forest where the port is located in a path leading to they city. A while later the blonde haired women passed through a large gate where guards stood on the wall guarding against invaders,monsters and the provane.After she entered the gate she walked throughout the city until she reached a majestic palace the stood in the middle of the city awhile later after entering the palace she stood before stairs that lead to a throne where a white haired women with green wolf like eyes red lips sat in a throne surrounded by white wolfs laying down on the floor around her in different position. The blonde haired women slightly bowed with a infant in her arms and spoke softly and respectfully
" My Queen we found this child floating on the northern outer wall's river that leads to our port"
Before she could finished speaking a dark smoke rose from the child in hers arms and formed a dark silhouette of a man. As the silhouette formed the guards in the throne hall quickly reacted and drew the weapons and began to approach the featurless man that is formed out of black smoke some stood before the throne room to protect the Queen from danger. As the Queens guards drew close to the man, the Queen rose her right hand to signal her guards to stop and spoke
"Stop, There is no need to panic"
As the Queen gave her order the featurless man that is formed out of darkness slightly bowed and began to speak in a hoarse voice
"QUEEN ESAROSA I've come to seek refuge for my pitiful child, it's time for you to pay me back"
Queen esarosa looked at the featurless man with a burning longing gaze, as she was about to open her mouth and speak the man cut her off and spoke agian.
" There is no need to ask or say anything I've already died, the only piece of me that is left in this world is this little one in my arms, I am entrusting him to you my friend raise him well and don't let him turn out like me, please let my bloodline have a new beginning.I know what I'm asking you to do is a big sacrifice but please help him"
After saying these words Karl crimson conjured a black book with a sigil of a snake wrapped around a sword, after the book was conjured a black smoke unnoticed by anyone entered the little infant.
Queen esarosa stood up from her throne en began slowly descending down the stairs towards the featurless man before she could reach him, he dissipated into nothingness, The guards and the blonde haired women were left speechless wondering why does a profane being have a connection with their noble Queen. As they were pondering Queen esarosa took the child from the blonde haired women and held him in her arms.
"It seems your father came back from profanity because of you little one," Sigh",It seem i have to repay his kindness through you little one, well then what shall i name you little one"
Queen esarosa said with a smile on her face ,while holding the infant in her arms, after a periode of silence and thinking Queen esarosa finally decided on a name.
"Mmhh, from today onwards you name shall be Kia and I bestow upon you the surname esarosa"
After that Queen esarosa took the conjured book that was left floating in the air.As Queen esarosa was patting the child's head and playfully and gently tossing him in the air, her royal advisor that stood behind her suddenly knelt on both his knees, face down and spoke with concerns evident in his voice.
" My Queen please reconsider your decision, how can a spawn of the provane bear your noble name.
Queen esarosa stopped what she was doing and with an expressionless face calmly looked at her advisor and protector and spoke
"Ivar If this child doesn't deserve my noble surname then who does, this is the son of the Karl crimson the man who put me on this throne"
Ivar lifted his face up and looked at his Queen shock apparent on his face with wide open eye and a gaping mouth. As the man was about to say something stopped him.
" There is no need to say anything, I shall raise him as my own"
As she said these words to Ivar, a bright snow white wolf like shape that is masked by her aura secretly came out of Queen esarosa and entered into kai esarosa.
As this was happening with sweat dripping of his face Ivar was pondering on how Karl crimson the calamity of the west turned into a profane being.
