15 Chapter 16

Arslan POV:

it's been a few weeks since the incident of the bloody gate, apparently, I got a title from it, "The butcher of the bloody gate", it became known by all, that strong weird monsters started appearing, just eight days ago, a village standing between 'Stone Hedge' and 'Raventree Hall' by the river that leads to 'Riverrun' was attacked by unknown beasts, none of the villagers survived except for one that the villagers sent to bring help. when the messenger got to 'Stone Hedge' he was already severely injured, the only words he could mutter before death were "blue humans" the castle then sent some men to check what happened there but non of them came back, this time not wanting any more unnecessary deaths they sent a force of 400 men to terminate the threat, but again non of the men returned, and the castle not knowing what to do sent a raven to 'Riverrun' for assistance, yesterday, 'Riverrun' not wanting to lose men sent a raven to the only known man to ever defeat these beasts, and he did it 3 times, me, they offered me money but I rejected it, the first time I take money is not gonna be from my mother's family, I sent a hawk back that says that I will go and check with my 200 men, the Tullies immediatly sent a raven for me to take more men, and that they already sent double the numbre and non returned, if I did it I will only be throwing myself to death and that if I need more men they can send them, I didn't answer and now Im riding to the village, with not just the "The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon", but also with the team of transportation, I created this team after starting the "the order of the Falcon"( the recruiting process is not over yet), this team had more than 500 people in case we needed to transport a lot of corpses, speaking of wich he also created another division called "Alchemists Of The Falcon", and their mission is to find and extract what is useful from every kind of monsters, after signing the Loyalty Contract of course, he doesn't want them spreading what they find, he wanted to have a monopoly over this new element.

I think the monsters that are attacking are the "drowners", the messenger said that they are blue people, and the village is near a river.

3RD POV:

as Arslan was nearing into the village, he left the transportation team about 1 mile away with 10 "Protectors", he started going near the river, he dismounted from his horse, and so did his men, they started roaming the village searching for the beasts, suddenly, more than 4000 drawers appeared from the river and surrounded them, Arslan had a smile on his face as he put his left hand on the hilt of his sword and caressed it with love, as for his "The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon"(tho it's only 200 currently), instead of having the expected 'Fear', they had 'curiosity', wondering what new monster they just encountered.

at that moment the drowners started running at them.

every soldier took out their respective weapon and looked at the monsters with their great numbers.

Arslan: PROTECTORS!!

every one of them turned to The Falcon of The Vale only to see a smile on his face.

Arslan: LET'S SHOW THE WHOLE WORLD HOW THE FALCONS HUNT!!

he said, and they all charged with a battle cry, and so did he.

as Arslan charged at a drowner, the latter tried to cut him with its claws, he simply docked and stabbed his sword into the monster's stomach, he then saw another one attacking from behind, so he quickly did a spin taking out his sword and cutting the monster's head...

and the fight continued for the next 2 hours.

Arslan: " thank god I built that warehouse underground that could fit 50000 of these guys, they better be useful for something or I'm gonna be pissed"

waiting for the transportation team to be done with loading the bodies, he then ordered them to take 100 of these monsters to the Tullies in "Riverrrun" and were accompanied by 5 "Protectors".

he then accompanied the main team.

5 SAYS LATER:

as he reached the Eyrie, Arslan didn't expect that there will be thousands of people on the streets welcoming him after his hunt, he just enjoyed the expressions of the people after they see what he fought "aah, it never gets old" he thought, while he was smiling at them, inside he was thinking something along the lines of " I'm tired, I want to go to bed, and while physically I still feel energized, my mind is growing tired, though this time, this effect was worse, I just fought a 2 hours long battle, it seemed hours of fighting no matter how easy they were, could tire down even an immortal man, by the way, I never tried to tame these beasts, maybe I should, it would make my life so much easier"

after he reached the Eyrie, he told his "The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon" to rest as well, before he went to his room to get a good night's sleep.

THE NEXT DAY IN THE MORNING:

Arslan woke up, wore his armor, and went to the throne room, after he sat in his seat see said:

Arslan: call lady Arya and Ser Vardis Egen.

a few minutes later they were both in front of him.

Arslan: so how is your training going Arya??

he asked with a smile.

Arya smiled back.

Arya: it going great, Ser Vardis Egen is training me to the best of his ability.

Arslan: it's good to hear that, after I am done with this chaos I will be joining you, you can go back now.

she nodded and left.

Arslan tuned to Ser Vardis Egen.

Arslan: how if the recruiting going??

Ser Vardis Egen: it was done two days ago, we wanted to tell you yesterday but you seemed to be tired so we let it go.

Ser Vardis Egen said with respect filling his eyes, he knew how hard Arslan trained, and a great warrior always respects an even greater warrior.

Arslan: good, I will be meeting every division alone.

for the next 2 hours, Arslan had every division sign a Loyalty contract and then gave them a Regeneration Serum, and told them that they will have to train all day, they can only stop for sleep and food.

he then went to his office(formerly his father's) and summoned his map.

he put it on the desk and asked.

Arslan: show me monsters hiding in my territory.

the map flashed and red points started popping, a lot of them, he noticed that there was a large number of some kind of monster in a high mountain, well there were a lot of groups that amount to thousands, but this group was in the highest place in the mountain.

he wanted to check their names but he forgot that they were still unknown in this world.

Arslan: base their names on my knowledge of them.

the map flashed again and showed the groups name, Arslan was shocked, if this group attacked, even with the 30000 of "the order of the Falcon" it would be hard to protect the Eyrie against these numbers, possible, but hard, these are the Shriekers( of the witcher 3 ), their defense is 10 times stronger than the berserker( if you ask why the answer is 'cuz I said so'), even the Ballistas they used against the dragons in the series won't work against them, and their speed is 3 times of the griffin(again, 'cuz I said so') if these attacked it would be very hard to stop them, thank god that with the Loyalty contract, my men have a bonus mastery over weapons, and with the Regeneration Serum they never get tired, so they can master their weapons very quickly, and in a few weeks I can attack them before they can attack, WAIT... what if I could control them using my ability, I technically wished "CONTROL OVER ANIMALS/BEASTS", then maybe I can control them and use them as mounts.

but first I will have to clean the Vale of the groups of monsters that can be exterminated.

20 Days LATER:

for the past 20 days Arslan and his (now complete)"The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon", started marching all over the Vale, even finding new groups of monsters like "Cave Trolls" and "Archgriffins" and "Gargoyles", every one of these monsters had something useful, especially the drowners, it seems that his "Alchemists" found an organ in these creatures that if made into a potion properly can increase how much a person can stay in the water permanently and it can be used multiple times, you ask how they were able to do it? well after the first 15 days without result, he wanted to try if using Geass would work, and it did, it pushed the Alchemists past their ability, and helped them remember somethings that they already, forgot and the very next day they got results, it's efficient, of course, he asked them if they agree to him using it on them, even tho confused they agreed, he then made them forget the conversation.

after day 3, Arslan started sending his soldiers that are still training to hunt these monsters as their training, and they did even better than he expected.

and the more they hunted the more the Vale flourished with their trade to Essos and the other kingdoms, it turns out there are some monsters that have parts that are good to be made into weapons, and the "Archgriffins" have the best meat edible yet.

but today was the day his 30000 men would finally finish their training and join the ranks of "The Order Of The Falcon" and they were very proud to, as it is known that Arslan Lord Of The Vale is the best monster hunter there is, Arslan and his men exterminated more than 100000 monsters tho they are yet to find where they came from and were sending help to all does that need it, in these last 20 days Arslan save more than 11 villages.

but no one knows that "The Order Of The Falcon" led by Arslan was about to perform the first-ever monster taming attack.
