Side Stories: The Empress Part 3
Shouts and raging thunder of cannons from ships caused mayhem on to the streets of Los'Polos Pariah as many players rushed out towards the docks seeing a massive pile of ships going at it firing at one another.
Mykenai Azelas and his companions Legend, Yoshi, and Katsumi arrived at the port as well.
"Looks like things are heating up. I better head back to my ship where my crew is waiting and get them prepared for what's to come and how about you guys?" Myke asked looking back at the trio but only seeing one of them which was Legend who was stretching himself and warming up like he was going on a casual morning jog.
"Those two already went ahead to their positions. while you were gazing if I was you. I would hurry to your ship GB." Legend says with a serious tone in his voice as Myke was about to ask why when he saw Multiple Enemy Soldiers clad in their famous gold &black armor with the symbol of <
They were pouring out of the Alley ways, and some appeared on the rooftops. players on the street begin to engage with them as Myke wonders how the enemy forces already were here as that thought was put to the back of his mind as Two large size blue colored magical portals Appeared in front of them.
The Player [Azure Wolf] Appeared out of the right portal with his own battalion of soldiers at his command. Riding on his mystical mount that was a unicorn that had a mixture of white and blue coating.
The player [NK Shane] Appeared on the left portal with his own battalion as well, along with his two pets [ShadowFang] that was with him earlier. the other was A giant White & Purple colored Basilisk known as the world boss [Deathmaw]. that roams the desert lands of the Western Continent it exuded a deathly aura of danger as it towers over the soldiers and a few boats.
Myke uses that moment to Analyze both the players as his Skill maxed out not to long ago once he reached level 47 a couple of weeks ago, he wondered what he could see about the players information now.

Myke looked surprised that nothing changes for players. he thought about maybe if he scanned a magical beast or Other NPCs it might show something different. he put it to the back of his mind for now as he Analyzed Wolf next.

Myke whistles at the sight of Wolf stats. Myke knew for a fact that he didn't stand a chance against him as he thought of how to get pass the soldiers and the two commanders.
The soldiers of each battalion charged at the players as the Skirmish started. A Random enemy player came to charge at Myke as he was caught unaware. Myke thought the guy was on his Side since he didn't wear the usual enemy attire.
With rushing momentum from the random player, Myke flinched and blocked with both arms up to defend himself. but upon failing to notice the man had a Two-Handed hammer swinging down to crush Myke's Arms he closed his eyes readying for the pain to come.
A few seconds went by as nothing happened as he opened his eyes and saw the headless body of the attacker lying on the ground. He looked shocked and confused at what happened, till he felt a tight grip on his shoulder and turned his head slowly seeing a smiling Legend standing beside him with a nod as he dashed off with a burst of speed Slaughtering through the enemy forces with ease.
Myke was jaw dropped at Legend's Fierce and swift battle prowess. even Though he saw the man fight a few times but never like this as he was lost in thought Myke saw another portal this time it was golden and 2 times larger than the other ones.
Some of the Skirmish came to a stop as they watch to see what or who was about to come out of it. Myke use that pause in the battle to dash for his Ship. A few players saw that and looked towards him both Shane and Wolf saw it as well Shane was closer as he dashed straight for myke with his Spear going for an attack.
Myke Grabbed the Gun blade and ready his fingers on the trigger it starts to charge up the skill called
Shane looked at the back of the player that just escaped from him and thought to himself how good that timing was to escape right at the last second before the attack registered. Wolf walks up right beside Shane.
"Not bad at all." NK Shane says under his breath. turning along with Wolf looking towards the portal as a familiar figure walks out as Wolf, NK Shane, and the soldiers around the portal kneels as Desire Walks through the portal.
After she stepped through an even bigger force of soldiers were behind her as they March passed her spreading around the port like an army of ants. Desire Walks towards both Shane and Wolf arriving in front of them telling both of her commanders to rise along with their battalion.
"Status Report!" Desire yells out with her strict military-like voice.
"The king hasn't made a move yet only the players have been taking all the heat so far." Wolf says without hesitation as Desire nodded than looks over at Shane who was about to speak up in till a loud booming voice echoed out across the port grabbing everyone attention.
That voice belongs to a Giant Male as he towers over everything with his pale white like snow skin had a Crimson red colored very bushy and long braided beard, Bald head with A face of a bear tatted on it. Having no torso equipment showing just his bare chest. with red highlighted color bad ass tribal and animal tattoos covering his upper body.
With A Giant Black Lion fur wrapped around his Neck and shoulders hanging down His back like a cloak. His pants were some Dark Plated steel leggings with dark colored fur mixed in it. his boots were made of the same giant black lion fur and leather. He dual wielded Two-handed ancient battle axes that had glowing Red dangerous Runes on them. Deadly Solid black colored eyes scanned the area as it landed on the person he was looking for.
it was one of the famous "Three Bandit Kings" [Ragna Khan] Alongside him was two other figures that walking beside him at equal footing. It was the other two bandit kings [Fierce Claw], And [ Vicious Vicki] With a strong force of players marching behind them like a pack of wild dogs.
Fierce Was a male tiger BeastKin with gladiator like attire he exuded a powerful battle aura with his Emerald color cat eyes. Vicki was a female Orc with black colored dreads like ponytail style. She wore Dark colored leather armor attire while dual wielding A One-handed Axe and Dagger.
"Legendary Swordsman!! I hope you didn't hog all the fun!" Ragna yells out with his booming voice as he walked right up behind the samurai.
Legend flickered the blood off his sword wiped it with his arm and put the weapon back into its Sheathe while his eyes was closed. Vicki and Fierce also walked up behind him as he paid them no mind like they didn't exist.
"If only, but it seems that the fun is just getting started." Legend says opening his eyes back up looking towards Desire who in return looked towards him as she walks a few feet forward pass her two commanders and soldiers.
Legend was about to move forward until Ragna walked up first to meet the enemy leader.
"Well! well! well, if it isn't all mighty goddess herself in the flesh. not impressed at all thought you be bigger." Ragna says towards Desire with A cocky look.
"It's nice to finally meet the number 1 Samurai [Legendary Swordsman] Just like the clips show and the rumors online say you are indeed impressive." Desire says towards Legend while completely ignored the giant bandit king. Ragna saw this and instantly became annoyed as it shows the redness on his face.
"You arrogant Bitch! I'm talking to-" Before Ragna could finish, he was cut off by a growling Wolf
"YOU DARE TALK TO HER MAJESTY LIKE THAT!!! YOU LOW LIFE THUG!" Wolf yells out with rage towards Ragna as he was seconds away from pouncing on the giant.
"it's time you put a muzzle on your mutt Conqueror, or we will shut him for good." Vicki says while also walking forward standing right beside Ragna with Fierce as their guild mates were eager to make the first move against the enemy.
"Let's see you try it!!" Wolf was about to move forward but Shane stop him and looked over his shoulder at The Magic Knight.
"Remember your mission wolf. Don't worry I will get our vengeance." Shane says with a serious tone in his voice as his fox eyes opens a little.
Wolf was about to speak. in till Desire spoke first.
"Remember to stick with the objective commander." Desire says towards Wolf with a serious Military like tone in her voice as wolf clenched his hands into a Balled-up fist and gotten back up on his mount and tighten his grip on the reigns as he yells out to his battalion to move forward.
"You're not going anywhere mutt!!" Ragna yells out towards Wolf who dashes off on his mount Making his way past the raging giant bandit king.
Ragna rush towards the Magic Knight as he uses the Two-Handed skill
Shane pressed forward against the other two bandit kings along with ShadowFang. Azure Wolf passed by with his battalion as they headed straight for the pirate king's home carving a path through the army of players from Ragnarök.
Desire was being surrounded by At least 20 enemy players. She didn't seem bothered at all not even looking at them. but staring pass them looking directly at Legendary Swordsman with her arms resting behind her back.
The first player to charge was an Elven male wielding a spear. She effortlessly dodges the attack while tripping the player. falling face first onto the ground as another player strikes out on her flank with a Two-Handed sword as she dodged effortlessly again but this time, she rams her shoulder into the guy pushing him into another player as they both fell over as the other players saw this and They all attack together this time.
She dances through the enemy forces like a leaf on the wind with her footwork. She made the group of players feel Disoriented and confused as majority of them was on their ass. The few left that was standing started to show invisible sweat of nervousness.
Desire cracks her neck than started to jump up and down off the ground like she was warming up for a boxing fight. She stopped and smiled at the remaining players and dash for them as they were blown away with screams of pain.
Desire appears back into a standing position again right when she turned her head around. she instantly reacted along with a sword & Shield appearing in her hands as she put her Shield up blocking an attack from Legend who appeared out of thin air in front of her slamming down with his sword.
With cracks forming under desire feet the two exchanged blows with metal against metal. The aggressor was Legend who was slashing out with swift and powerful blows. Desire was on the defensive in till she started adjusting to the barrages of attacks from the samurai and started pushing him back as they both clash one final time as they disengaged a few feet from one another.
"You know they told me about you. I fought against your class before not just a few times either. enough to where if I'm fighting A Battlemaster I don't pull my punches at all. The number 2 strongest Battlemaster [Sleepy] and I are sparring partners. He told me about you. how strong you were and if I was to ever go against you. not pulling my punches isn't going to be enough. I thought he was just exaggerating." Legend says with a light chuckle towards Desire who looks back at him with a Smirk.
"Well, Was He?" Desire asked with a curious smile.
"Hmm...I guess we just have to find that out." Right after Legend says that A figure Suddenly appears behind Desire as she React fast enough to dodge the initial attack from this figure as it pressed the attack with barrages of lightning-fast attacks as a few manage to hit Desire.
Desire got her footing back against the figure and started to retaliate back as the figure disengaged jumping over the Conqueror's head and landing beside Legend as this person was no other than the number 1 assassin [Katsumi].
out at sea more destructive and raging battles were happening....
The giant castle size ship the
Squid.Jr was yelling out orders around the ship. One of the crew mates yells out "Large Enemy vessel Approaches!!" it was a large ship that looked like a Demonic navy warship, but it was deck out in all red with a large Skull made out of metal in the front of the ship making it look menacing.
five more ships of the same look and size arrived by it. Squid.Jr sighs as he knew exactly who those ships belong to.
"ITS ARMAGEDDON!!!" One of the crew mates yells out. Captain Squid spits looking at the ships as he sighs and yells orders over the intercoms at the helm telling the crew to get ready for a battle.
"More warships Incoming from our flank!!!" The lookout says as cannons was firing at the Kraken even one managed to hit the ship as it did little damage towards the ship.
"Damn it!!! those fuckers are ganking us!"
"Why are they focusing on us like there isn't any other Ships out here!!"
"One of Armageddon warships are heading straight for us! I think it's going to ram us!"
The crew & Guild mates on the
("Our best course of action is to stay at our position with us being attack on both sides we could manage but the ship might take a lot more damage and If dad tries to focus on one side which I know he wouldn't but.") Squid.Jr was lost in thought in till a few explosions let off simultaneously he looked up towards the loud explosions he saw a large size pirate Ship With the logo of a silver bullet ramming through their allies' ships coming from the port as it dashes like an actual bullet being shot ramming through them like a knife cutting through butter.
"Silver bullet and it's a rare tier with such ramming power it could even take on epic tier ships." Squid.Jr says looking amazed at the ship as one of the Guildmates runs up to him.
"Sir! we have just spotted Bloodbath's vessel." The Guild member says towards Squid.Jr as he nodded
"Tell my crew to get ready and set sail. also go report this to my father and get the bard we will need him for this next part." Squid.Jr ordered the guild member as he nodded and ran off.
Myke was just getting the hang of this event and actually enjoying it. The thrill of getting the upper hand on a player or two was more exciting than he thought as him and his crew stroll casually through the Wreckage of ships.
Myke looked on at the destruction as he couldn't imagine what it feels like to lose something like his silver bullet because of an event that might not get you anything that is equal to losing your ship. especially one you put your blood, Sweat & hard work into.
"Aye!! MYKITTY!!!" A familiar Voice yells out towards the silver bullet as Myke already knew who this person was before he turned his head.
It was Darman along with his own crew and his ship the "Rusty Nail" looking even worse than it was earlier as myke waved at the ship.
"Yo captain Darman! Looks like you guys managed to get by." Myke says towards the Drunken dwarf.
"Arrrrgggggghhhh Dam- HIC! RIGHT "OLE RUSTY" HERE HAVEN'T FAIL ME YET! BUT IM SURPRISED TO SEE YOU OUT HERE. FINALLY DECIDED TO SHOW YOUR TRUE SELF!!!" Darman yells out all drunk and rowdy gestured with his hands to look around him as behind his ship was a few Wreckages of ships with large size nails poking through them as a few of the pieces off those ships were coming back towards the Rusty Nail and replaced the missing pieces from its on.
Myke rubs the back of his neck with A nervous light chuckle as he saw how Rusty Nail passive skill
"You know me all too well old friend but on to other matters should we try our luck at that thing." Myke says pointing at large castle size pirate Ship The
Darman turn to look at the ship and then turned back looking at Myke.
"HAHAHAHAHA! EVEN THE GOD OF SEA WOULD BE CAUTIOUS TO APPROACH SUCH A TITAN OF A SHIP! WE WOULD BE ANNIHILATED!" The Drunken dwarf yells out with spit flying out of his mouth as Myke looked at the dwarf with a disgust look Than sigh as he thought on what they should do next.
both ships sat there for a second A loud Chain of explosions happen to their right coming from the west side of the kingdom both Captain's looked at each other than nodded as they set sail towards that direction.
A few minutes of sailing both ships arrived and saw a graveyard of ships. Then they saw something that left both captain and their crew jaws dropped as there was two large size vessels going at it both was Epic tier as Myke Analyze the one that was attacking it was none other than.
[ S.S. Tidal breaker] From The Guild
Right as the destructive beam shot. A rainbow-colored shield barrier covered [Ocean Star] from the blast as it reflects back at the Ebony steel warship as it took major damage to where it was on fire now and started to sink slowly as Ocean Star sails beside it to board the warship.
"Holy shit...did you see that Darman! do you think we should go help our allies or." Before Myke could finish, he sees Darman charges towards the Fray with a war cry with his crew.
Myke face palms and sigh as he shrugs and also set sail towards the two epic tier ships as well.
A scream of pain yells out in the forest close to the King's Home as The Nightblade [Tsuyoshi] Just got done taking out the last Assassin class players that was in this area as he looks around at the corpses of different players at least a dozen of them was spread all around him in different positions with no blood on him or the area the bodies occupied.
"Ruthless and efficient as always Yoshi, Shame that it has to come down to this." Yoshi Turns around at hearing the familiar cold and deep voice and saw the player [Unknown] who was standing like he's been there the entire time.
Yoshi looked up into the trees and saw all of the same Nightblades from the other day staring down at him as he looked all the way up into the Azure blue Sky as the warmth of the sun relaxed his muscles. Yoshi than stretch his arms taking in all of the Sun's warm rays as he closed his eyes and breathe in.
Unknown and the other Nightblades watches him and didn't take one eye off him or even blink. Yoshi let out a long Sigh and then put his arms and body back into their original positions as he opened his eyes with his Aura of killing intent Flares out towards the Nightblades as they all tensed up except Unknown who still stood in one place not bothered.
"Well, shall we dance?" Yoshi says as he took a pair of dual scythes-like weapons that was on both sides of his hip under his long black cloak and vanished from the spot he was standing at and reappearing in the air as the other Nightblades except Unknown jumped from their perch and meeting Yoshi headfirst in the air.
