778 Words
After collecting obsidian Kurohito and Shio returned home. But what they saw made them shiver through their spines.
"Kurohito-Sama what's going on..."
"Why's there's a fire in the Kingdom..."
Shio said.
"Did something went off?.."
"Did some accident occurred?.."
Kurohito said.
They were still pretty far from the kingdom but it was visible. They saw standing near a cliff that the whole kingdom was on fire, and they saw a large army surrounding their kingdom.
"No, it seems intentional..."
"Look there's an army of mob over there, are they responsible for this?.."
Shio said while stutter in her voice.
They don't know who's army that is but after seeing that. Kurohito and Shio ran towards the kingdom in worry.
"Hurry we have to get there..."
"We can't just stay here and watch it happen..."
Kurohito said while sprinting towards the Kingdom.
...
When they got closer they saw people injured guards who were trying to evacuate people of the burning buildings.
The army that was attacking started retreating.
Then Kirisei comes sprinting in and fill Kurohito on what happened.
...
Kurohito's heart pounded in his chest as he and Shio hurried closer to their beloved kingdom, now engulfed in flames. The sight before them was devastating—a once thriving haven now reduced to chaos and destruction.
As they reached the outskirts of the burning kingdom, Kurohito spotted Kirisei, the former village chief sprinting towards him. His face was etched with worry and exhaustion, his armor stained with ash and dirt. Kurohito's heart sank at the sight of him in such distress.
"Kirisei, what happened?"
Kurohito gasped, his voice trembling with a mix of fear and anger.
Kirisei's voice was filled with urgency as he spoke.
"Kurohito-Sama, it was an unexpected attack..."
"A large army descended upon us, led by a ruthless warlord named Vortan..."
"They came seeking power and control, and they attacked without mercy..."
"He's a general from the Demon Lord's army..."
Shio's eyes widened in disbelief.
"But... how did they breach our defenses?.."
"We have traps surrounding the entire kingdom and the strength of our united kingdom..."
Kirisei sighed heavily.
"They came with a force we had not anticipated..."
"Vortan had gathered an army from various kingdoms and creatures, all hungry for power..."
"They overwhelmed our defenses, striking at our weakest points..."
Kurohito clenched his fists, his determination growing stronger.
"We cannot let them get away with this..."
"We will rebuild our kingdom, piece by piece, and ensure that justice is served..."
Kirisei nodded, his gaze filled with unwavering resolve.
"Indeed, Kurohito-Sama..."
"Our people need us now more than ever..."
"We must rally them and begin the process of restoration..."
"But first, we must secure the area and tend to the wounded..."
Together, Kurohito, Shio, and Kirisei rushed into the heart of the chaos. They organized groups of survivors, guiding them to safer locations away from the raging fires. They tended to the injured, offering comfort and support in their time of need.
As the fires began to die down and the cries of anguish turned into whispers of hope, Kurohito stood upon a makeshift platform, addressing his people with a voice filled with determination and resilience.
"My fellow citizens..."
He began, his voice carrying over the remnants of the devastated kingdom.
"We have endured a great tragedy today, but our spirit remains unbroken..."
"Together, we will rebuild our kingdom, stronger than ever before..."
"We will not let this act of aggression extinguish the flame of unity and acceptance that we have nurtured within our hearts..."
"And we will not forgive whoever dares to ruin our vision..."
"We will counter attack..."
"We will take revenge and make them feel regret as to not aggro us..."
The crowd, battered and weary, listened intently, their eyes reflecting a glimmer of hope amidst the ruins.
Kurohito continued,
"We will seek justice for the pain that has been inflicted upon us..."
"We will rebuild our alliances, unite with neighboring kingdoms, and stand together against those who seek to divide us..."
"We are warriors, builders, and dreamers. Our spirit cannot be extinguished..."
The crowd erupted into applause, their determination reignited by Kurohito's words. They knew that their journey was far from over, but together, they were ready to face any challenge that lay ahead.
As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow upon the scarred land, Kurohito, Shio, Kirisei, and the resilient citizens of Savan Kingdom stood together, united by their shared resolve to rebuild, to heal, and to emerge stronger than ever before. The path to justice and restoration had just begun, but they were determined to reclaim their kingdom and restore peace to their beloved home.
