Empress' Evolution

Chapter 38: Not everything is gradiose



Legendary-tier, the fourth tier in a daemon's evolution. It centers a lot of different myths and legends like how a daemon at this level will not be met with a cap.

The Pixie Lord flew towards Section 5, its aim is simple, take Sylva and her soul. Tonight is the red night, the night when the moon bleeds. According to legends, for Pixies to become Spirits one would need the moon to take away their blood.

The blood of the Pixie Lord will thus be sacrificed and the Golden Soul of Sylva shall become the Pixie Lord's sustenance. The Pixie Lord is doing all this trouble for reason only he knows.

"The wound is becoming a hindrance, in ten minutes I'll bleed out if I don't close it."

And as he flew past various places, his internal bleeding continued to widen and grow larger. He showed a powerful front earlier, managing to wound the Ogre Berserker of the Ogre Tribe, but that was it.

He had already used up most his strength in that single slash. And the species of the Ogre Berserker is not named Berserker just for fun, if the Berserker was truly pushed, the Pixie Lord would not last a single punch.

The Pixie Lord looked at his wounds and only stopped the bleeding inside. Two of his ribs are broken, the sharp edges of the rib managed to pierce some of his internal organs worsening his situation.

But with the usage of Mana, he managed to stop the internal bleeding. He can't heal himself and only rely on the innate powers of his body, it was pretty much like that.

The Pixie Lord passed various locations, he did not care about anything nor did he care about the Pixies that had been kept as prisoners. He flew up, above the trees so no one will be able to spot him.

Two hours later, he managed to reach the Village of the Ogres, where no one is on guard. Only the elderly and the children remain and as he stood fifty meters away from the Ogre Village, the Pixie Lord smiled.

"I can finally reach it. Just a little more and I'll be able to reach the Rawa."

The Ogre Village is lit up, from the bonfire that had been set up by the elderly.

"I can kill them in seven seconds, my MP may be nearing empty, but I have this scythe with me."

In the hands of the Pixie Lord was the scythe he called upon when the Blood Moon arose. He moved back and got ready to swing his scythe, casualties will be taken care of later, the Pixie Lord only wish to get Sylva's by any means necessary!

He raised the scythe and got ready to swing it, but not everything was going to work so well for Lilith's plan B is posted in this areas.

Stab!

"Huh?" The Pixie Lord looked at the sword that penetrated his abdomen from behind, "Fuck off!" The Pixie Lord took a massive swing and send the guy in the shadow jump back.

The shadow retreat, he wished to take the head of the Pixie Lord in one fell swoop but only ended up with a single stab on the back.

"Tsk, that is not enough."

Dhampy cursed as she observed the movements of the Pixie Lord. The Lord at this moment already had its eyes as red as crimson.

Glaring

"Who are you?"

"Your death!"

Dhampy was sure she can take the Pixie Lord, with the simple reasoning of the Pixie Lord being too injured to move properly and exert any strong, and he was the only one who can protect everyone in the Village.

Dhampy darted forward, she lowered her body as much as possible and swung the sword in her hand.

Clang!

However, it was blocked by the scythe.

"Stop getting in my way, you fucking piece of shit!"

The Pixie Lord retaliated and picked up Dhampy on the shoulder, the Pixie Lord raised him high up and then bam! He smashed Dhampy to the ground. The ground shook as he continuously smashed Dhampy on the ground.

He was showing a powerful front, but the Pixie Lord knew he was going to die. He managed to close the wound on his internal organs earlier, but the stab of Dhampy caused another large opening.

The Pixie Lord was merely clinging to something now to keep himself alike. As he clumsily raised his scythe and swung it with not even half of the strength it previously had, Dhampy merely dove forward and got below of the Lord.

Slash!

A vertical slash, one of the Pixie Lord's hands was cut, cleanly and without blemish. His blood created a beautiful arc, and with the blood-red moon, his blood was even more beautiful than ever.

"I can't die here...Agh!" He wished to live, but his other arm was severed as well. And as his hands were cleared off, he felt something weird, as if he was being liberated, free from his troubles.

'Ah, death is coming.' Is what the Pixie Lord thought.

He was someone no one managed got to know. But as the Pixie Lord looked at Dhampy one last time, he said one last thing.

"Please, take care of my people!"

Dhampy was surprised, but as her sword traveled a horizontal path, she spoke, "We will."

And then the head of the Pixie Lord finally flew into the air.

The Pixie Lord's story is nothing grand. He was a daemon ruling over the Pixies. He was once considered a good king, but as the population of the Pixies grew, food became scarce in their territory.

And as he had to find a way in order to get food for everyone, he began to plot on conquering the other sections and get more food. He willingly sacrificed one of his daughters to become a golden sacrifice and even killed off his wife to become a good ruler who can provide.

But in the end, he failed. On his death, he did not reflect on his wrongdoings, he only wished that with his death, the Pixies will be granted a better life.

In the world of humans or daemons, life is a priority and as one life comes and one life goes not everyone's story is told.
