Chapter 76:the first monsters tribe to join

Are fight lasted the rest of the night the sun was just about to cress over the horizon and as the sun slowly rose in the sky chasing away the shadows we find to beings flying in the sky just above the clouds one looked like a angel with her gray and gold wings and the other looked more spooky and dark and just like the sunrise beating back the darkness this angel smiled at the bleeding dark figure and she spoke just the sound of her voice made you feel warm and welcome good job Azmo you fought well my pupil you even was able to deliver a few mighty blows against me so hold your head up in pride child not many people have accomplished what you did and in one night at that, I was breathing hard my back was sort of slumped down clouched in my hands was my curved blades and dropping off it was a mix of gold and green blood but that wasn't the only place that was dripping blood from me cuz my hole body was covered in cuts and bruises hell I was even missing a few fingers but I slowly raised my head and straighted my back before staring at her my hands tightening on my blades which had a few chips on them the same could be said for my bident there was chips on the blades but they didn't brake yet I took a deep breath of the morning air and closed my eyes letting the morning wash over my body after a few seconds of basking in the sunlight I opened my eyes and smiled at Athena bowing my head saying thank you master you have reminded me what I was fighting for Athena sheathed her sword and her shield was gone and she floated in front of me and placed a hand on my shoulder Azmo I do not envy you the weight you bear is a mighty one and I know there is still a small part of you that is bitter and angry at your parents I will neither defend them nor will I how you mortals say through them under the bus out of all the gods I have no room to talk but just know they both love you deeply hell they both wont stop talking about you Hel keeps bringing up how her son saved her kingdom hell she says her son improved it and dont get me started on Hades the man wont stop showing people his new gauntlet that he says his son came up with hell even some of the other gods wont stop talking about you like Thor and Loki they both wont stop bragging about there super cool nephew and grandson even Hephaestus completed your work so you might not think or feel it Azmo but you are loved by many  you are no longer alone my student please remember that I looked up at her grinning so master you have been bragging about me haven't you Athena laughed before saying perhaps and with that she turning around and disappeared in a flash of light I smiled at this beautiful morning sight and I stayed like this for a while just taking it all in but after a while my body was fully healed and I side looking at my blades and I seen the chips in the edge and I even seen a few hair line cracks on them I side sheathing them saying it would seem I need some new weapons how fun but that's when I noticed a peace of paper that was on my shoulder the same shoulder Athena put her hand I grabbed it and looked it over I smiled seeing the first it was a map of this continent when I opened this map several colorful dots appeared and when I tapped on the dot the map would zoom in on this location showing me the city, town hell it even showed me the dukedoms and kingdoms territory and where it ended the woods I was in was on the center right of this map and when I tapped the name to these woods which was The cursed sun woods probably cuz of the ruins that the demons was coming from but when we zoomed in on these woods I seen the dwarfs was held up on the western part of these woods there capital city was built into the side of the west mountain side and on the right side of the woods was the elven territory there capital was around a huge ancient tree and cutting through these woods was each of there territories the dwarfs was gray and the elves was a green color and boy did the elves hold a hole lot of the territory in these woods you could tell they was starting to chip into the dwarf territories but the dwarfs must have been putting up one hell of fight cuz all the cities that was close to the elven territory was still under the dwarf rule there were only two that the elves had taken over and they were on the edges the white swan city was on the south side of this map it was between both kingdoms as its own territory which was drawn in while but the white swan definitely didn't own a whole lot of land it was actually a pitfall amount basically the spot where we met up with the envoys yesterday was the end of the white swan territory but I seen 7 other territories that was as big as the town my tribe and I came from these places was simply labeled as monster town but one particular elven city stood out to me it looked a hole lot like a prisoner camp or a enslavement camp hell it was even labeled monster braking camp my ice blue eyes shinned seeing this camp as a huge evil grin spread across my face but I looked at the second paper and could tell this was Athena handwriting my eyes scanned over it 

To my dearest serpent student my brother Hephaestus wanted me to give this to you he said it was a gift for doing such find work on your fathers new weapon and me being the cool and amazing master I am I of course helped him with the magic in this map I hope you us it well also Hephaestus had a message for you he said there was a weapon he didn't get to finish in some ruins in those woods he gives you full promotion to do what you want with the unfinished peace and make something out of it he hates wasted space that is all have fun out there o and remember when you need it call it and it will come hahaha 

I raised my eyebrow at that last part what the fuck did she mean by that I wasn't sure but I will keep it in mind I looked back to the map and noticed 3 out of the 7 terrifies was close I smiled looking down to see people was up and moving good its time to get this morning started my shadow demon moved next to me and when I took my bident it disappeared I chuckled putting my bident in my bracelet as I leaned down plummeting towards the ground I heard many people yell and gasp seeing me plummeting down towards them but right before I hit the ground I expanded my wings which through me up slightly and I gently landed on the ground my wings folding behind me and disappearing I rolled my shoulders before I noticed everyone was staring at me with stunned wide-eyed what I asked do I got something on my face I asked the duke side by the gods Azmo what the fuck happened to your clothes I looked down to my tattered coat and pants I shrugged pulling off the old coat and it burst into flames before I spoke I took a walk but enough of this Mesh and Dusk where are you here sir and they both ran up to me I nodded good and I pulled out the map and showed them the three locations that was closed by saying send out some people to recruit these monsters they nodded Mesh saying we already sent a squad out to the east they have made contact with that tribe and they should be on there way back from what I understand that town was a town of ogre's they wasnt to happy at the idea of following a weakling so the leader of that tribe and the rest of them are coming this way I assume he will challenge our leader aka you to a fight I nodded that's fine Dusk smiled I will send out the other ones I nodded actually send that third squad out anyway but I want them to do recognizance on this place and I showed them the slave camp they both bowed it will be done master Dusk said and like that they walked to there group and soon 3 squads of 5 left Dusk personally lead the 3 squad I looked to Era who just walked into the training group next to her was Gimli and he was saying something and Era was listening intensely I heard Gimli finish the conversation with and yea so that's how Azmo fixed my cannon idea they both stopped joining the group around me Era looked at me with impresses eyes but I looked to Gimli saying good everyone is here I have been told by a reliable source that the human armies will be on us in about a month the fuck did you just say Duke yelled but I side the human armies will be here in a month do not make me repeat my self again this is a fact except it and move on we got to much to do for people to dwell on things that can't be changed so Gimli and I looked it him again he stepped forward saying yes brother I nodded do you have any monsters living in your kingdom Era stepped forward nodding yes quite a few actually those who was able to run from the elves that is they make up most of are slumps I nodded good I will take all those who wish to join my tribe get them here as soon as possible she nodded that will be easy enough here and she handed me a small glass ball I took it and immediately recognized it as a recording stone it could record a 1 minute video Era smiled saying give them a speech so they rally under your banner I chuckled looking into this gem before channeling my magic into it the ball starter ti glow blue and I smiled speaking 

Hello one and all monsters of all kind my name is AzmoNekros and as you can see I am one of you a monster but unlike you I am out here fighting I have already killed the elven emperors representative who was his brother and I have signed a treaty with the dwarf kingdom some of you might even know my tribe name we are the demonic legion and we are wanting to build up are ranks so come one and all if you want to leave your old life behind and start a new one alongside your fellow monsters come and join us we will train you all how to fight but this doesn't have to be what you do we except everyone who can contribute to the tribe smiths, cooks, hell even if your a librarian we will welcome you with open arms but my tribe is a fighting tribe so that is what we will be doing the most fighting I don't mind some none combatants so come and join us and let us test are fates together shall we hahaha 

With that I stop recording and through it back to Era saying there is your speech mam she giggled saying I got a lot to do I nodded thank you but she was already gone I looked to the duke who was talking with Shosa Duke I said and they both stopped talking and looked towards me and both smiled and walk in front of me I looked to the duke who was holding a scroll in his hand he seen where I was looking and through it to me saying take a look Azmo I cot it and opened it looking it over as I did the duke spoke I was able to procure over 1000 knight that just graduated from the royal knight academy the first batch should be arriving here in the next few days I nodded lowering the paper saying so you want 30 cannons 20 for your wall and 10 for on the ground plus 1000 pepperbox pistols and flintlock rifles plus plate armor and bayonet plus you want a mace, hammer or axe to be there melee weapon he nodded sir Gimli here pointed out to me that a hammer or mace is much better against plate armor plus we already got the bayonet for chainmail armor I nodded true but y dont we just add a spike on the back of your axe and war hammers and then a morning star mace cuz bayonet are easy to us but that doesn't mean they are the superior weapon he nodded far enough I assume you will be training them I laughed maybe but and I looked to Shosa saying I got to train my own troops in mounted combat all though the rumble squads are a natural at it so it will be fine this reminds me and I looked to Gimli asking are they ready he nodded yes they are waiting for you over there and he pointed two wood boxes next to the stables I smiled nodded good I leave the smithing stuff to you my friend and I pat his shoulder he nodded of Azmo and he took the paper and walked away talking to the duke I looked to Shosa saying well lets us start your training and I pulled out a simple blue bitten up shirt and I rolled up the sleeves as I walked towards the boxes when I got in front of them I turned around yelling rumble unit form up in front of me yes sir they yelled and they formed 3 lines in front of me Shosa walking next to me I nodded good and I pulled out my revolver saying this is a revolver to all those who didn't see its effect in the battle here allow me to show you and I fanned three shots into a stra dummy that was about years from me a few of them gasped seeing the smoking holes in the dummy I spun my pistol before holstering it and I grinned at them all saying this is what a boom stick of my make can do in the past I lead a hole army with such weapons and well it might not be the same these will be as effective and I pulled off one of the boxes lids off and pulled out a small crossbow that could be shot with one or two hand but instead of bolts this thing shot small spikes that there was a chamber right under where the strings would through the spike I then picked up a metal toob and slotted it into the camber before I pulled the strings back I then turned around raising this cross bow to my shoulder and pulling the trigger the second that trigger got pulled the crossbow made a slight woosh, whoosh, woosh this noise lasted for 3 seconds I lowered the crossbow and I waved my hand and a another dummy that was 30 years from me shot in front of me everyone gasped seeing the devastation that this crossbow did to this dummy I smiled as I walked next to it and pat it on the shoulder as I held up the crossbow saying 50 spikes for each toob and as you can see this weapon can be used with one hand so it is perfect for mounted combat so and I through this crossbow to one of them in front of me yelling get our weapon and mount up it is time I train you ones more yes sir they yelled and rushed forward getting there crossbow and a strange belt holder that you could store 3 toobs on it I got onto Artemis saying I will be demonstrating and you all fallow got it they all slammed a hand to there chest yelling yes sir I nodded good first you want to take the sling here and throw it over your shoulder just in case it gets nocked out of your hand or some and I showed them next you pull the strings back and I did that they all following I nodded then you charge with that Artemis shot forward as she did I unsheathed my curved sword off my back as I sprayed in front of us clearing a back before in the dummies and when Artemis shot by the first dummies I swung my sword cutting 2 dummies heads off as I sprayed to my right but the moment I ran out of ammo I through the crossbow behind me and pulled out my other sword cleaving a few more dummies before we got passed them I looked back to them all the dummies healing yelling that is how you do it ones you are out of ammo do not try and reload wall in the center of the fucking army no wait till you get through them and as you turn around for your second charge reload these weapons are meant to be used for clearing large groups of enemies so us it as such but the moment your out of ammo switch back to what words blade got it they all nodded good Shosa lead your unit and run it he nodded yelling rumble, rumble, rumble they all took up the chant as Shosa held up his halberd which was flying are flag and like that they thundered forward and did a pretty good job replicating what I just showed them but they definitely needed practice so I started training them and boy was I a slave driver by the time mid day came both the rumble unit and there raptors was breathing hard and sweating which was strange I didn't think we could sweat but it would seem that's how hard I pushed them again I yelled Leonard, Crisha you still can't hit your fucking targets and dont get me started on you Ashleigh you couldn't hit the broad side of a giants ass come on you fuckers this is sloppy one wrong move  out there in the real world these dummies wont be as nice nor will they be standing still ready and go they all rushed forward clearing the path in front of there mounts before spraying all around and when they ran out of ammo they switched to there swords which reminded me I probably change what weapon they was using also we are planning on going against the humans and I have vast experience with dealing with them and there weapons and armor if they are anything like the Templars axes and war hammers will be the most effective so would scimitars or the katana both was great for mounted combat but axes,  war hammers, halberds and similar weapons are damn effective against chain mail and plate armor I smiled when the rumble unit ran through the dummies and every single dummy either had a few holes in it or deep slashes through them I nodded good and Artemis walked in front of them all i nodded smiling at them all I could tell they was running on fumes great jobs rumble unit not a dummy was spared your rath I expect you to do the same to the humans when the time come but know rest and relax for tomorrow you do it again got it they all raised there weapons in front of them saluting me as they yelled yes sir I pulled out one of my curved swords and saluted them back I was about to say my last words when I sensed something flying at me and Shosa yelled Azmo watch out but my body was already moving on its own I swayed to the side on my saddle as Artemis lowererd her head as she did I seen a glowing red short spear that was connected to a chain but I noticed on this spear there was a very sharp hook attached to the blade the moment I seen that the spear was jerked back as it flow back towards me that hook shining menacingly but I simply got the shaft the chain being pulled tight by something behind me I slowly turned my head my eyes glowing bright blue and my eyes fell on a Burleigh humanoid with light red skin and long curly orange fiery hair I seen two tusks sticking up from his mouth and on the sides of his head was two sets of small smooth black horns he had on what looked like red samurai armor just no helmet and a orange rob under the armor on his hip was a katana and wrapped around his hand was a glowing orange chain I stared coldly into those yellow cat like eyes a ogre huh and behind him was a group of 100 more ogre's who had on similar clothes and weaponry but there skin colors was different we had red which was this man and one other a shorter female that was covering her face with a hand fain her air was bright blue and eyes like the sun then there was black, orange, purple and lastly pink all of them had black horns and snarls on there faces my eyes then landed on the 3 raptors who had cuts on them and there riders was tied to posts and beaten pretty badly but I could see them breathing so that is good but the fact they did this to my tribe man I thank they need to be taught a lesson my cold ruthless eyes fell on the leader of this group which was the one holding the chain and I hissed my man better be alive or otherwise you all will die the leader snarled and spoke in a wild voice you wont do shit to us we easily beat your man so we will easily beat you also so shut up and swear yourself to me or die a huge beastly grin spread across my face as I broke out in laughter this ogre and his people snarled hearing my laughter one of the black ones with snow white hair stepped forward he had on light leather armor and two swords on his back and bright blue eyes as he barked out what is so funny you damn serpent we got you out numbered and its obvious are leader is stronger then you so shut up and blow your head hahaha I jumped off Artemis still keeping a tight hold on this glowing spear I whipped a tear from my eye saying wow haha I have never seen so many fools in one place tell me boy and my smile faded into my cold ruthless expression you come walking into this place my base of options with my man that you beat and torched and you demand me to bow my head to you and I spat to the side what a fucking joke I have faced literal gods and titans and they never got me to bow my head what makes you think little beasts like you can the leader snarled grabbing the chain with both hands and jurked it back to him or he tried to but the spear stayed tightly in my hand hell my arm didnt even move from my waste as he pulled on it the leader struggled yelling come on fine I will just burn you and he twisted the chain and it burst into flames so did the spear but I didn't let it go hell I moved it in front of my face admiring the orange fire that danced around my hand before my head shot to this leader who was struggling to pull this spear from my hand I smiled neat trick sadly for you and I jurked the chain forward the leader launched towards me and I cot him by the throat and I grinned as I started down at him my eyes glowing a ice blue I brought the spear to his face showing him that his fire had no effect on me his eyes want wide seeing that just who are you I laughed before slamming him into the ground I seen blood be spit up from him I looked at this spear mumbling a neat trick but not a practical one and I through away the spear defend the prince that black   ogre yelled and he pulled out his two swords and the rest of them grabbed there weapons and was about to step forward when I hissed enough one more step and you all die and I snapped my fingers when I did Shosa and the rest of Mesh unit stepped out from there hiding places completely surrounding these ogre's Shosa and Mesh raised there new weaponry mesh unit was deck out with similar crossbows but ones that could shoot way farther then the ones Shosa unit used hell these crossbows Mesh unit was using could shoot as for as a rifle and without the noise that came with guns the   ogre's looked around fearfully as there so-called prince slowly sat up and he looked up at me with fear in his eyes I grinned down at him yelling my name is AzmoNekros most call me just Azmo I am the leader of the demonic legion it was I who sent those man out to find you all not to recruit yall but to ask you to join my tribe to join my family and yet and my killing intent and bloodlust exploded out from me the surroundings got cold and everyone felt the cold hand of death brush against there souls just the wait of my killing intent forced a lot of the ogre's to the ground even the ones who was still standing there legs was shaking and they couldn't raise there heads I spoke in a cold voice and yet you all harmed 3 members of my tribe so sense you happily beat my man I am done being nice but I will give you all one last chance since you so graciously gave me an ultimatum I will give you all the same choice bow and swear your loyalty or die and become food for my man and I it has been so long since we have had a good strong meal ant that right yall hiss click some hissed some clicked in agreement so and I crouched down in front of this leader no this boy and I stared into his eyes coldly what will it be prince are you in or are you out I hissed and we stared at each other for a few seconds I chuckled where is my manners and I stood up my killing intent disappearing I will allow you 5 minutes to talk amongst your selfs the prince stood with nodding and quickly ran back to his people and they started talking I side and sat down in a shadow thrown as Shosa and Mesh moved to either side of me both still had there weapons trained on these so called ogre's as she whispered are tribes man have been saved and are being looked after by the elder they will heal the same with there mounts good I side we can't afford to lose any of them this reminds me Shosa I plan on changing your units secondary weapon the sword is nice but against armor it will ball behind Shosa nodded I agree I was meaning to tell you this but I forgot many of the people in my unit have been having problems cutting through some demons also I think the dwarfs have the right idea either an axe or war hammer I nodded how about you big boy how you liking your halberd his left hand moved and pat the shaft of the halberd on his back it has been magnificent but its starting to fall apart honestly our race wasnt meant to us iron it breaks way to easily I nodded I have a meeting with the duke's head of trading and Era this afternoon we have a shit ton of gold at this point sense war is good business I will be fully remaking everyones equipment especially sense know that I got a way better rune scribing pin yall think this equipment you are using is great just wait till you see the true craft of a master smith Mesh giggled I can't wait Azmo I was thinking my unit needs something for mounted combat aswell got any thoughts a huge grin spread across my face I think a naginata will be perfect for yall Mesh smiled responding I have no idea what that is but I trust you Azmo but here they come game faced and we all looked foward are faces going cold as the prince and 4 others from his group walked forward and stopped in front of me the prince looked at me with fire in his eye sir Azmo what do you plan on doing with my people and I if we do join you I raised a eyebrow isn't that obvious I welcome you into my family and we prepare for war you might not know this but there is a great human army coming are way and we need all the help we can get this is when the short red skinned woman with the hand fan stepper next to what I think is her older brother asking and what of the woman and children will you force them to fight I laughed and motioned to Mesh who was standing next to me as I spoke let me introduce you to Mesh caption to are range unit and her second in command Dusk they both are woman this should answer your question right but if not I will be more clear and I leaned forward smiling at this small women I do not care if your male or female all those who are able will learn how to fight after all this is a warrior tribe at the end of the day but and I leaned back in my chair chuckling if you have other skills like smithing, cooking or anything that can help the tribe you might not see battle but I believe in equality hell my wife is one of the most scariest and most powerful warriors I have ever seen and she is female as for the children no they will not fight we all maybe monsters but we are monsters with class besides its very distasteful to have child soldiers I will not allow such a thing the children show at least have a bit of happiness before they see the horrors of this world but we will establish a age where the children must go through training either those children get trained before they are of age is up to the childs parents or garden is this fine with you the woman nodded and curtsied to me saying I apologize sir Azmo I just worry we dont know you nor your tribe and how your act or anything but it would seem my worries was unfounded my apologize again I smile standing up and waved my hand as the shadows gently made her raise up so she could look into my eyes I smiled seeing the sincere and warmth in here eyes this women will make someone a great wife and loving mother someday I chuckled at my thoughts before speaking there is no need to lower your head to me miss you have every right to worry we are complete strangers even so your people harmed mine this I can't allow so and I looked to the prince my eyes going cold what will it be are you in or are you out good sir the man stared into my eyes for a few seconds but he nodded ok and he slowly pulled off the katana off his hip and kneeled down in front of me and held his sheathed katana out towards me with both hands as he spoke I Valdora prince of the red tusked ogre's swear my loyalty to you AzmoNekros please except this sword which belonged to every leader of the tusked tribe that came before me as proof of my loyalty I slowly extended my hand out and took the blade and slowly unsheathed it the red edge shined sharply in the sunlight that's when I heard a thump noise and all the other ogre's kneeled down and bowed there heads to me as they yelled we swear our loyalty to you AzmoNekros our new leader silence fell over the training ground as no one moved they all was waiting to hear my response sweat slowly rolled off there heads as they waited I ran a hand down the back of this blade it made a shink noise as I did I admired the runes this was a epic grade weapon almost a the legendary rank I smiled nodding a good weapon I said doing a few practiced swings in the air nodding well balanced also and the edge has been infused by a Phoenix feather a great weapon and indeed it needs a great warrior to wield her but that warrior isn't me and I stabbed this blade right in front of Valdora who looked up at the blade with shocked eyes pick it up I said he hesitated I through the sword sheath down in front of him yelling pick it up Valdora hesitated but slowly picked up the sheath and stood up pulling the katana out from the ground I nodded good you said this sword has been passed down from one leader to another right he slowly nodded good I grinned then you will be Shosa second in command but you will form a subunit under him and when the time comes you will lead are ground forces I want you to crash into the enemies on your mounts and when it's time I want you to dismount and form up to cut the enemy down on foot this will take a general who is both crazy and fearless enough to face down our enemies with a smile on your faces do you think you can do that a huge grin spread across his face as he nodded I believe I can do that sir Azmo I laughed holding out my hand saying enough of the sir shit just Azmo will do I welcome you all to the demonic legion let us test are fates together he sheathed his sword and shook my hand laughing I thank you Azmo for this chance I nodded and I looked to the rest of the ogre's who was still bowing I side Shosa there all yours big guy whip these fuckers into one of us a huge fanged smile spread across his face as he slammed a hand to his chest yelling with pleasure sir he then turned to the still bowing ogre's and yelled enough bowing the fuck are yall warriors or chickens no one in the demonic legion bows to anyone get up maggets hell is awaiting you move it, move it, move it Christ my grandmother moves faster than you all and she doesn't even exist I laughed seeing all the ogre's running around like headless chickens Shosa smiled to the rest of his unit yelling where the fuck do you think your going you all are joining us comrades who suffer together grow closer don't you know I laughed looking to Mesh saying take those who you think have skill enough but first and I looked over the ogre's and found that black skin who threatened me before Harriet I said yes Azmo and she appeared next to me I pointed to that ogre asking what do you think does he have potential to be a shadow she looked him over with squinted sharp eyes after she was done she nodded yes I do but he isn't the only one there is 10 others who have potential I nodded take them and start there training I assume the duke had you training others she nodded yes 3 mutent slaves he bot I nodded not surprised hearing there was slaves in this world if it isn't too much trouble can you take the 11 you see out there and Mesh and those in her unit Harriet smiled nodding anything for you brother I chuckled brother huh she laughed it was either that or husband one of the two you do know it's an elven tradition to propose to the women with earrings or something you can hang from the ear us elves take pride in our ears so its a sign to everyone that we are married to are partner a permanent mark of you will I side rubbing the sides of my head saying so in the elves eyes we are married she giggled exactly so and she spoke in a seductive voice she said so big brother what will you do with me hehe a cold shiver when down my spine when I heard her words by the gods this women is dangerous not even the children of Aphrodite who have literal powers over seduction couldn't charm me but this women sent a cold shiver down my spine I need to run and fast I cleared my throat saying absolutely nothing your little tricks dont work on me Harriet but if you will excuse me I got a meeting to be in and I shadow walked away from this women Harriet and Mesh looked at each other and smiled seeing me run away.
