The Stonehearted Knight

'Why can't life be simple? I just wished to be the next baron of Grindeston. Now I have to face the world and Heavens above, only because of the damn stone acting like my heart?' Hex Darkenmane, scorned and despised by people and his fate, struggled in the dark chasms of the Endless Mountains to have one chance at becoming Blessed. Once he threaded the path of Knights, he would challenge the baron and gain everyone's respect. But things weren't as simple as he imagined. Only after gaining a Blessing and starting as a Squire did he learn the truth about the world and the Heaven governing over it. The baron's power knew no limits, Heaven wasn't as benevolent as preached, and his origin wasn't as simple as he believed. To make things worse, his master didn't seem interested in teaching. He landed in a battle between powerhouses and Heavens and was confronted with his origin. But like he never despaired in the deepest chasms of the mountains, he never considered giving up no matter how high the odds were stacked against him. "Give up? Why? Isn't it just the entire world and the Heaven around it, coming at me? Even if I stand alone, I won't be disheartened. Step by step, I will thread on my foes, going beyond Heaven itself. The road is long and lonely but don't pity me, for I don't pity myself. Toward others but especially towards myself, I am stonehearted." _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, I have a discord. Join, please. https://discord.gg/rT4bezy5 A/N: WEIRDNESS I started to write after being tired of system, harem, and R18 novels that seemed copied from each other (I AM NOT DISSING ANYONE). I decided to write my own story, trying to blend traditional fantasy with web novels, adding weirdness as the main spice.

Seeing the Witch

The trek through the chasm didn't take much time. Hex and Silvera were behind the baron, swiftly scaling over the uneven ground and walls. 

Silvera used her silvery chains to drag the other Knights along. Experienced and strong as they were, they were obviously not used to moving through tears in the ground. 

Within a few minutes, they reached the other side. Hex climbed behind Silvera out of the chasm. The moment he stepped onto even ground, he felt the turbulent air blow in his face.

The rumbling of the clouds thundered in his ears. He looked up. Up close, the sight of the massive clouds coiling with flashes of lightning between them, made him shiver unconsciously. 

When he looked around, he saw the devastation left by the strike. The southern tower was half gone and the main building was scorched black. 

As they hurried toward the southern tower, he saw the servants spread over the castle ground. But they didn't seem burnt or wounded.
