Inkshares

Chapter 1: The Foundations of War

began with small battles in between brother and sister, and then it quickly sped

up. These battles quickly had engulfed the town into full blown war. Every

GodSlayer had been assigned with what they should do to stop the war. I had to

stop a demon uprising in the northern part of town (ten years ago, a group of

demons wanted to settle in the northern part of town, because they didn’t want

to be in hell no more.) I managed to calm the demons that wanted to take out a

nice couple. I don’t mean the take out like someone takes you out to dinner. I

meant like kill take out. I met a demon who wanted to stop the other demons from

killing humans. His name was Armen. He and I were friends from that. While in

the guild, I earned the last name “Hellfire” since the day I burned another

GodSlayer who went mad. So, since that day, I have been known as Blaze Hellfire.

I tried talking to the guildmaster to allow Armen in, but he said that wouldn’t

be good. Demons have unearthly power that can be effective against monsters, but

I have the powers of creation at my hands. When it was night, I went into the

demon side of town. I walked around the demon side of town with curious eyes.

The buildings in the demon side of town all look like Scythes with circular

windows in them. I heard a sound that no earthly beast could ever create. I

quickly went to the source of the sound. It was a Demonic scream. I saw the

monster and I decided it’s time was up.;;

;;“Beast

of Creation, your time is up!”;;

;

;;I

quickly pulled out my sword, and it decided to burn my hand. It was a fire bolt.

I quickly did what no normal GodSlayer did. I entered Combat Mode. I said “God’s

Wrath be merciful to you!” The beast fell with a loud thud. I tried picking up

my sword and it was cool to the touch. It was a fire spell. I looked around and

found the caster. It was Armen.;;

;

;;“If

you were going to cast a spell, cast it at the beast!”;;

;

;;“Sorry.

I had to be sure.”;;

;

;;“Sure

of what?”;;

;

;;“That

you were an Elder God.”;;

;

;;“Why

would you do that? There will be GodSlayers everywhere if I don’t out of here

quick!”;;

;

;;“I’ll

cast the spells at the beasts next time. Ok?”;;

;

;;“Thanks,

but I have to run now.”;;

;

;;I

ran from Armen and back to the Guild. Every GodSlayer was there, waiting for

me.;;

;

;;One

of them said “Blaze, twenty years ago, you joined the guild…”;;

;

;;Another

person said “Kick him out! Kill him!”;;

;

;;Almost

everyone agreed with that and I reminded them “I slew one of you lot. What’s

stopping me from killing all of you? Yeah, I’m an Elder God, but I joined you

lot because you inspired me when I was younger.”;;

;

;;Only

two people clapped from that. One from behind me and the other from the crowd. I

turned around and saw Armen there.;;

;

;;“Man,

you GodSlayers do this to every god that joines your guild?”;;

;

;;“Nope,

just him.” One of them said.;;

;

;;I

also saw the crowd split into two and the guildmaster stepped out from the

crowd.;;

;

;;“Guildmaster

present! At arms!”;;

;

;;The

guildmaster motioned them to be at ease.;;

;

;;“Blaze,

You’re a good GodSlayer, but….”;;

;

;;I

stopped him there.;;

;

;;“I

know.You want to kick me out of the guild.”;;

;

;;The

guildmaster nodded.;;

;

;;“I’ll

be in contact. I’ll be on the other side of town if you lot want to be foolish

and try to kill me.”;;

;

;;I

then snapped my fingers and the place got lit up so to speak. I made the whole

place burn. Armen and I teleported into the forest. We both sat down a large

rock by the stream. We got attuned to Nature’s glow.;;

;

;;“Armen.”;;

;

;;“Blaze.”;;

;

;;“Why

can’t we just, I don’t know, help the world out?”;;

;

;;“I

don’t know.”;;

;

;;“We

should get used to this. An Elder God and a Demon in the forest.”;;

;

;;“It

would confuse people.”;;

;

;;“You’re

right, but this is nice.”;;

;

;;What

we didn’t know was that the people were being slaughtered by Followers of the

Unknown God. After some time in the forest, I and Armen decided to teleport back

into town.;;

;

teleported us into town and the place was lit up on fire.;;

;

;;Armen

decided to make a smart remark about that.;;

;

;;“Maybe

a bit too much fire to the guild?”;;

;

;;I

rolled my eyes at him.;;

;

;;I

looked around for any sign of magical energy. There was none. I turned to Armen,

who was of course, standing head strong.;;

;

;;“Armen,

this isn’t fire magic. It’s natural fire.”;;

;

;;Armen

looked at me with fighting moods going through his soul. He wanted a fight as

bad as me.;;

;

;;“We

both agree that we should help?”;;

;

;;Armen

nodded.;;

;

;;“Time

to get to work.”;;

;

;;I

decided to fly around the town on a piece of land from the forest. I saw people

wearing red robes lighting up people’s homes. I decided to cast a water spell to

flush out the fire. ;;

dir="ltr">;;;“Aqua

noxia igni!”;;

;

;;The

Flood Waters spell did it’s work by smothering the flames. as soon as the last

fire was out, I decided to give those people a taste of Hell’s Fire.;;

;

;;“Igneous

Maxiam!”;;

;

;;A

shot of fire blast did the trick. Most of the followers were scorched. The rest

I let Armen kill. I saw Armen casting fire spells at the people. I flew downward

into the battlefront and asked if he could leave just one person alive only. He

agreed. When all but one was dead of fire, We both walked up to the last person

alive and he spatted out something like “The Unknown God shall punish you! We

were doing his holy work by burning this place to the ground!” I spat at what he

had said. ;;

dir="ltr">;;;“Tell

me now, what holy work would tell you to burn down a peaceful little town in the

middle of the forest?”;;

dir="ltr">;;;“The

Unknown God has told us through our Speaker to burn this town to the ground.

He’ll never be stopped!”;;

dir="ltr">;;;“I’ve

had enough of him. Armen, kill him.”;;

dir="ltr">;;;“With

pleasure. Igni!”;;;The

Fire Spell killed the last one almost instantly. The fires were no longer

burning. Many homes were destroyed because of this cult of people that decided

to try making up a Unknown God that wants this town burned to the ground. I

asked Armen if he wanted something to eat. He, obviously, agreed. We went to the

local pub and ordered up some tuna fish that one was cooked and the other raw. I

wanted the one that was cooked. You can guess who wanted the fish raw. We ate

our fish and talked for a while. The pub was getting a bit crowded, so we

decided to head to the forest outside of town. When we got there however, almost

all the demon population was there. They were all chanting “Heroes!! Heroes!!!”

Both me and Armen felt good when they were chanting that. We slew Unknown

Followers that were mad. We stopped people houses from burning down. It’s not

easy being a Hero though. Fun, but not easy. When we were done in the forest, we

walked back into town. After walking for a long time, we decided to go home. I

would go back to my cott and Armen, well, back to his home in Demon Square.

While it’s still nighttime. though I should go check on my parents. I wonder how

they’re getting along in the Shadow Realm. I then summoned a portal into the

Shadow Realm and found myself in a grayish realm where everything is without

color. I didn’t see my parents in the street, but I thought I would go check up

on them in the old house down the road from where I was. I enjoyed my parents

when I was little, but that was before I knew a monster came and ate their

entrails and blood. I was sickened with grief when their bodies were murdered

and I don’t think there were any words in my vocabulary that could describe the

horror I saw with their corpses hanging from the roof that day. I couldn’t see

their spirits there so I left the Shadow Realm and made my way to my cot. After

a long time, I reached my cot.;
