4 Start of the Great War

After the talk with Illion, Fear closed his eyes and when he finally opened his eyes he was in control of the body. What arrived in front of his eyes was a world of destruction.

He looked around himself and found out that he was in a four wheel wooden carriage which was a bit banged up. It was running at quiet a speed though a forest which was destroyed. There was fire everywhere, a lot of trees were broken and fallen off and when he looked behind him through a window he could see a sea of fire and in a distance he could also see some "firecrackers" blowing up in the sky with some figures flying in the sky. He knew that those firecrackers were mid level magic.

After finding out about his situation he started flexing his body, doing different type of stretches and popping sound could be heard from all over his body. He kept doing that while the carriage was rushing in the jungle.

At some point the carriage came out of the destroyed jungle and was travelling in green and lush jungle under the darkness of night. Fear was looking outside the carriage window while performing his exercises. After a while Fear finally frowned

"Such 'out of shape' body. I would need to fix it in near future before I can start the plan but first..."

Saying that much he looked in front towards the driver with sharp eyes before he displayed a naive look which also had a bit of arrogance similar to how Illion would normally look.

He got near to the front window before calling out to the driver who was a normal solider of the vampire kingdom.

"Driver, take me back right now. We need to pick someone."

Driver was shocked by what Illion said before a nervous face appeared on his face which soon disappeared and Fear could see a face of arrogance on this driver. Seeing the whole transaction on the face of this driver Fear could guess what was going though this drivers head.

He knew that the driver got shocked as Illion was supposed to be unconscious as he saw him drinking something given to him by the butler, he was nervous because it was complete annihilation of the vampires and finally the arrogance because he must have been ordered by the butler or someone of higher level.

And as he thought he was rebutted right away.

"I am sorry Sir but that cannot be done. I have been specially ordered by the head butler to take you out of the vampire nation as stealthily as possible. We cannot go back now"

Fear looked at that face of the driver and closed his eyes not bothering to talk anymore.

Driver looking at this had a arrogance in his eyes. He closed the curtains of the coach and went back to driving.

<hahaha that felt amazing. The crown prince had to listen me. I, who always been a low level guard taught the crown prince a lesson. hahaha... huh>

While the driver was lost in his happiness of new found authority, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck. when he tried to move his neck to see what it was, the pain only increased but from the corner of his eye he could see red coloured eyes which were looking back at him. The coldness of those eyes sent a chill down his spine.

<How, how could that loser/kind crown prince who preached the message of peace. No, I need to fight back>

By the time the driver got over his initial shock and started struggling, it was already too late. Fear had already sucked a huge amount of his blood which put a immediate decrease on his strength. Along with the grab Fear was holding him in he couldn't even struggle properly. Slowly he went to eternal sleep.

Fear picked up the husk of a body before throwing it away.

He grabbed hold of the reins on the night wolf's that were pulling the carriage. He looked at the uneven jungle path he was going through and at trees as if looking for something. After looking around for a bit he yanked the reins abruptly to make a sharp turn on an already small path. The night wolf's being an agile and strong species to begin with could easily make the turn, carriage however was not that lucky. Because of the force of the turn, the carriages wheels were peeled off the ground. The carriage flew in the air and heavily smash into a big tree on the side of the road. The carriage was half smashed into the tree. Fear gave a heavy punch to the support that was keeping the carriage together before whipping the wolfs making them pull the front of the carriage out leaving the back behind.

He pulled out the ceiling before throwing it away. He also cleared any planks that were still hanging from the carriage. By the time he was finished the only thing left of the carriage was a support connecting the front two wheels of the carriage which was connected to the wolfs with a seat for himself to sit on. He did all this to decrease the weight and make them run faster.

***

While fear was making the run towards the war, At some part of the war there was a old vampire sitting on a small chair that was beside a blood colored throne.

This throne was for the king of the vampires. No one was to sit on this throne other than the king, even in his disappearance so the head butler who was acting as the supervisor now was sitting on a small chair beside the throne. He was addressing some people at the movement.

"Head Butler all the heirs other than princess and prince have been sent out. Lord is still in fight with King Sona and King Kant. Please give us the next order"

One of the loyal workers of the Vampire castle was reporting back to the head butler along with few other worker.

"Murr you guy's have done enough. If you stay here any longer you will become part of the end game so take your leave now."

Head Butler was looking at these workers who were still standing in front of him rather than running away like few other. He couldn't help himself but look at them with kindness.

"No, head butler; I am not going to leave. It would be my honor to be part of end game. No, it is my responsibility and right to be part of it"

Murr was a hotblooded half-blood vampire. He was saved by Lord himself when he should have died in a country far away in slave shed. From then on he felt in-debt to the lord and now this was finally his time to pay back. He wasn't willing to leave as is.

Head butler had kindness in his eyes but also had a frown on his face. He knew these workers who never had an actual training would be throwing their life for no reason if they actually went into the war right now. He thought for a moment before replying to the ones standing before him.

"This is my command. All of you are to help commander Khara evacuate the general populace from this war. They have nothing to do with this war. It is Royal house's responsibility to lead them to safety but because of the time royal house is unable to do it.

Lord himself is standing there to keep the three enemy experts at bay and first prince and first princess themselves are fighting at the front leading their personal guards to fight. So in place of Royal family you guy's must keep the general populace safe. Now go"

Everyone after bowing to the head butler ran out the gates with determination in their eyes. Everyone except one, Murr was the only one who did not take his leave.

Looking at that, Head butler couldn't help but sign. This guy was a really hard worker but he is really hot blooded. If it was possible he wanted this guy to survive this ordeal but looking at how this guy was hell-bent on taking part in the war. After thinking for a bit he gave Murr an order.

"Murr, This is a order to you. You are to join Captain Rahun's squad to kill any enemy who tries to get our normal populace"

When Murr heard this order he face finally brightened up before he got a wicked smile on his face. He bowed to the head butler before running out with renewed vigor. Head butler looking at Murr's behavior shook his head and signed. He slowly got off his chair before walking out himself.

A few moments earlier in the sky above the battlefield.

Three bloody figures that were locked in a fight finally took a step back to take a rest. Two bloody figures got back before taking a look at a lone man standing in front of them. This guy who had such a control over his blood that it won't even flow out or on a rare chance that it did it would flow back. They both were confident that they can take him down but they still were scared of the price.

The guy was still looking at them leisurely while taking a peak at the battle on the ground.

"You half cooked eggs can't even take a old vampire down. I have tell my youngsters not to drink elf blood, otherwise they will get a bad stomach"

When they listened to this vampire they really had their blood boiling. 'Not drinking elf blood' while this was what they wanted and also one of the reason for them to declare a war on vampires; they still hated how he put it. It was as if their blood was not good enough. King Kant couldn't take it and refuted.

"Old bastard, you should already have been buried long time ago. It was only because you had a bit of connection with elf's that your kind had still survived but elf's have had enough now. We will bury you and your kind all together"

Listening to King Kant, Vampire couldn't help laughing.

"You dumb elf who can't even kill one vampire even with help of other elf, you think vampire kind will stand their and wait for your blade. You can't kill us with words now, can you?"

After listening on the conversation for a while King Sona finally spoke after taking a look around.

"Bapu, one of the strongest to be birthed in vampire kind. One of the reason vampire nation could become what it has become now. This oppressive and arrogant leach which is sucking lives out of all the nearby nations. Did you think you could kill all other like we are nothing. Your time has come Bapu. And this is not just the elf's who think that way, that's why we have centaurs, trolls and ghouls helping us. And for you specially Human Saint Buttuk and Human Saint Baladh has come as well."

When he said that two shadows flew over from two different directions and stood beside the elf kings.

Saint Buttuk was a man with long nose, sharp eyes and small mouth, he had a dis-shelfed appearance. One thing special about him was angel wings at his back. He was looking at Bapu with disdain but didn't make a move yet.

Saint Baladh was a fat black man with no hair on his head. He was wearing good cloths and had a refined look. He was looking at Bapu with a indifferent look as if he had nothing to do with this.

Bapu looking at the new arrival still had a look of leisure, infact he was showing arrogance even.

"Human kind, why do you have to step in this. Your kind only have a few expert but you guys are idiotic enough to step toward your own death. Now that you have come lets start"

Everyone was just going to start the fight again but a voice was heard just than

"Human, your kind is not good enough to battle with lord"

Everyone looked toward that direction and saw a old man with naked top. He had a well built body and at this moment he had brutal aura around him as if asking for blood. When Bapu looked at the old man, he was ashamed.

"Old man Lahu, please pardon me. I am ashamed that you have to take a step out"

Looking at Bapu, Lahu sighed before repling

"You don't have to be ashamed of anything. I respect you for your talent in everything lord. There is a reason I became the Head butler back than and taught you, your father and your kids. But now it is finally time for me to dust my sword and color it red. I rather die in battle than in a castle.

It has been so long since I have stood on the battlefield. Last time was with your grandfather. I already have enough of acting as a f*cking butler. They have already started another Great War by acting on us together. Our allies are already rushing so let's just have some fun"

Saying that much all of them blasted of from where they were standing before meeting on the center point with their attack. They started throwing different attacks at each other but Lahu was successful in pulling both humans away from the elfs and Bapu.

On another part of the battle two night wolfs appeared behind the enemy ground forces out of nowhere. They had few burning logs that were tied to them. These burning logs were tied so close to them that they were nearly touching the tails making them run faster into the enemy. While this was happening a shadow pulled a enemy soldier into the jungle.
