The King

Leonard ran back to the palace in the kingdom. For three months, he was fueled by pure hatred as he rode in a carriage to the other side of the nation. He barged into the king's castle, seeking an audience with the king. After a long, incoherent ramble, the guard permitted him 10 minutes with the king. He stormed into the room, panicked and distressed. There he met the king, Index Atlas.

Index looked like a handsome man, with a handsome face and an athletic body. He has long blonde hair with a long braid tied behind. He had almost demonic-looking purple eyes with a tornado marking on his left eye. He also sported a dark goatee and displayed his rock-hard abs with his open shirt.

Next to him was a young lady. She had flowing silk-like blonde hair, charming blue eyes, and porcelain white skin. She has an exceptional figure and she wore a pure white dress and white gloves. She was the national beauty of the kingdom and the princess, Meroina Atlas.

He ran up to both and fell to his knees.

"You're Highness!" Leonard shouted. "There was a man who attacked me and broke a royal contract! I request that you execute him for his crimes!"

"Hush now. tell me, why would I help you?"

"Because I own the biggest slave trading company in the nation. If I'm killed, it will deal a massive blow to the kingdom's economy. Almost 8%!"

"Hmmmm..."

"Father, there's no need to stress." The Meroina said. "This lowly trash's position can be filled by anyone."

"Why you little-"

"Silence."

Her pupils turned into targets and Leonard was frozen with fear. It was her unique ultimate skill, Dictator, which allowed her to control the wills of others with just a word.

King Index walked up to Leonard. His floor-length black and white robes drifted on the ground. His white turban with feather decorations bounced as he took each step. His jewelry, which was draped all over her body, swayed as he closed in on Leonard.

Index looked down on Leonard and held his chin. She looked into his eyes for a while till a smile came across his face.

"My daughter's right. You've overstayed your value."

Index activated his ultimate skill, Gravitate, which allowed him to control gravity. Which complimented his title as the strongest elemental mage in the world. Leonard started to have his body crushed. Not even his blood could escape his body. The pain was beyond anything Leonard could have even imagined. His bones began collapsing, his organs bursting, his blood cells evaporating, and he was alive for all of it.

He was turned into a tiny ball of flesh, no bigger than the palm of Index's hand and he fell to the ground. Index then walked back to his desk.

"Father, would you like me to investigate that area?"

"No. There's no reason to."

Meanwhile, in their neighboring, much smaller country lay a giant castle in a land of darkness. With purple skies, dead black trees, and monsters in a city below the castle.

Looking down on the city, from the balcony of one of the rooms of the castle was an ominous-looking man. His keen gaze observed all the monster citizens. His clothes clearly showed off his buff and muscular body. He had a crystalline horn on his head. He had silver hair, golden eyes, and purple skin.

"One day. One day..."

Suddenly, a woman walked behind him. She had the appearance of a young woman with dark brown skin and long, somewhat messy light brown hair. She has cat ears, pointed teeth, and wings where her arms were supposed to be, similar to a harpy. She had a pretty face, an ample chest, and pointy ears, similar to an elf.

Interestingly, her most distinctive feature is her lion-like lower body, with her human upper body beginning where the neck of a normal lion would begin. Her clothing consists of ancient Egyptian mode on the upper body, consisting of a necklace, a white blouse, and a skirt that slightly covers her lower front. In contrast to her upper body, she doesn't wear any clothes on her lion-like lower body.

She stood there with the man, looking down at the kingdom.

"What are you thinking about, father?"

"My plan. In 7 months, we will officially enter war with the kingdom of Pez and the kingdom of Indioral. It will ravage the country."

"Well, maybe if we're lucky, we can take over the kingdom of Pez. It has a very luscious field and plenty of food and water for all of our citizens."

"You just want to kill the king's daughter, don't you, Ilia?"

"Kind of. That bitch Meroina will suffer for the embarrassment she caused me. I'll make her drown in the blood of her own citizens."

"On the way there, they're is a massive plateau breaking the two countries apart. I want to assign some members of the black order to investigate and scout out the field for marching."

"Don't worry, father. I'll get them ready."
