Chapter 20: Darkened Ones

"And the entire human world is in utter chaos, due to research it would seem that the darkest desires of one whose infected by darkness would be what such a person would try to achieve. Be It Perversion, Rape, Greed, Arrogance or Even Pedophilia. It seemed the person would go to any lengths to accomplish those desires and since their temporarily empowered by the darkeness which infect them they are more than capable of achieving it , it is to note that not only the Human Realm is Suffering this but The Realm of Demons and Sirens. It's Also Important to note that Elves , Angels , Mermaids e.t.c Although aren't Affected by this phenomenon they can have darkness transfered to them from a defeated darkened One..."

So that Elf that attacked that day during the meeting secretly hated humans. The King thought to himself, I wonder how they aren't Affected there just as twisted as the humans they believe to be superior to.

" In short we are applying for a state of Emergency until we can figure out what it is, it seems to be a spell that has a mind of It's own we'll look into it of course...

Erm your highness " The Researcher said Glancing at King who was deep in thought.

" Not yet after our forces eliminate the darkened ones at the eastern border"

If the come back then we declare a state of emergency"

He said a finger on his temple.

" Your highness , may I speak" A Noble raised his hand after silenced had swallowed the room.

" Whose going to lead the men Into Battle, Normally it would be the Crown Prince..."

" Go on"

" But since they isn't one how about his highness choose the most talented Young Man to lead them"

This was going to come one day. The King thought but he had no idea that they would be this brazen, letting another noble lead aside from the royal family is the same as giving them authority the Royal Family should. Not Only was he losing supporters but he was growing old and like so the vultures on the table are waiting for the King Of The Jungle to die.

So they can feast on his corpse .

" I hope you aren't offended, your highness" The noble said with a slight grin. His son was the most talented son in all the land Percival Blackwood.

And basically He just gave the throne of to One of the Family of Dukes in The Empire The Blackwood's .

If only I had a Son
