No More Pain For This Villain.

Chapter 18 The Blaze.



"You know my brother's name. Hehehe, what an interesting kid." It said it has a heavy, manly voice.

"You are not the one I wanted." I may have sounded dumb, but I was really dumbfounded.

"Huhhhhhhhhhnn!!!Then why did you summon me?" you DIMWIT!"  The will-o'-the-wisp growled at me, and it set itself ablaze in crimson fire like showing its anger.

"It looks like I messed up big this time," I said to myself.

"Hmm," the will-o'-the-wisp looked at me,

"Is your name Klashier?" I asked to confirm my doubts.

"No kiddo, my name is Blaze, and Klashier is my twin," the will-o-the-wisp answered, and I was,

"Well, it's different from the storyline of the game, I know." i thought 

"So let's make some things clear."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

In the game, the story goes like this:

Adam Stales graduates from the imperial academy, and he sets off on a journey with his party members, which were Mary, Elsa, an elven princess and a great mage, and Raven, a beastwomen.

On this journey, they fight off the evil to bring justice to the world. just like any other cliche fantasy novel.

In the story, There is an arc called ' heros fall.'  In this arc, Adam travels to the Kingdom of Reva to fight the Demon King's first general,

'Krinos.' 

Krinos is one of the four pillars of the Demon King. He was sent to the Kingdom of Reva with his two hundred thousand-strong demon army to attack the capital and capture the kingdom while taking the royal family as hostages.

(By the way, Krinos is a "Minotauros";)

Krinos is an old monster that believes in physical power and is a proud warrior. 

So at the end of the arc, there are two fights between Adam and Krinos: the human boy who believes in the power of love versus a brutal monster. In the first face-off between these two, Adam gets his ass beaten and was on the verge of death, but by the grace of the plot armor, he is saved by the sacrifices of some mere side characters, which helps him to land a powerful blow on his opponent. When both of them were equally injured, Krinos decided to fall back and continue the fight after both of them were in their best shape, and for that, he gave Adam a time period of three days. In the words of Krinos, it is shameful for the warriors to not be able to fight until their hearts are content. Krinos demands that the next time they fight, he wants Adam to come alone and fight him like a true warrior and not like a coward who uses his companions as some sort of meat shield.

Adam and his party leave the battlefield, and they gather together in a tent to discuss their next course of action.

Silence.

Inside the tent, there were four individuals sitting next to each other, and an eerie silence flowed between them. They were devastated by the chain of events that happened on the battlefield, and none of them looked at the faces of each other because of the shame with which they had fled the battlefield.

Sigh.

"I think there is no need to be this sulking this much. We did our best out there, and it's not our fault that we weren't able to defeat that demon." Adam said he tried to encourage them by saying all of this, but there was no light in his voice because deep down he was also shaken by their utter defeat.

" Adam are you goin to fight that guy alone."

Raven inquired a little warily; in her mind, she was worried about Adam's safety.

"Yeah, there's no other choice. "I must fight Krinos." Adam said,

Silence.

Adam confirmed that he was going to face Krinos, and everyone's faces turned pale since fighting that humongous monster alone is like committing suicide or even worse, 

Nobody tried to stop Adam since they knew that he wouldn't stop.

Mary stood up from her chair, took a step forward, and said,

"Adam, there is something that I wanted to give you. This is something that I wanted to give you as a present for your next birthday, but I think that this will be helpful to you in this situation." Mary said, and she then pulled a dagger out of her spatial ring and held it towards him.

"What's this?"  Adam questioned while he took the dagger in his hand and inspected it.

"This is a dagger, and it's made from dragons."

Bone, so I thought it would be a great help to fight that damn Minotauros!" Mary said, 

Adam was surprised by her statement; it was nearly impossible to get hold of a weapon or an artefact made from such celestial beings' fossils.

.

.

" And where did you get this?"  Adam asked,

"I??I-I f-found it in a dungeon boss's room." Mary stuttered hard while answering and Adam easily picked up on that.

Sigh.

" You're lying, Tell me the truth" Adam immediately saw through her lie and demanded an honest answer from her.

.

.

There was a long pause before Mary spoke her next words.

"I borrowed it from my mom's collection." Mary said she kept her face down and looked at her feet.

Sigh.

"At first you said that you were going to give it to me as a present for my next birthday, but now you are saying that you borrowed it, and as far as my knowledge goes, borrowed stuff has to be returned, right?" Adam said Mary was taken aback by how fast Adam saw through her lie.

Mary didn't answer this time or try to make something up; she just kept staring at her feet.

Mary was too ashamed to admit that she stole the dagger from her mother's beloved collection to present it to Adam.

Sigh

"Well, there isn't a point to dwell on this topic anymore, so what am I supposed to do with this dagger?" Adam sighed deeply and decided to change the topic.

Mary looked up, and then,

"You just have to push your mana through the dagger, and it'll sharpen the blade and strengthen the attacks." Mary said,

"Well then, let's try it out." Saying this, Adam slowly pushed his mana into the dagger.

.

.

.

"Haa haa"After some time, Adam stopped imbuing mana into the dagger.

"This is a great weapon!" I can use this to fight Krinos but only for half an hour since it consumes a lot of my mana rapidly."  Adam said,

"Why don't you try to absorb its power with Mistilteinn?" Elsa suggests,

Mistilteinn is the name of the holy sword that was bestowed upon Adam by the great goddess of light, Ellora. Mistilteinn is a weapon that can destroy or create depending upon the will of the person that handles it.

Mistilteinn also has some special characteristics, one of which is that it can absorb the power of any weapon to strengthen itself and the hero.

"Will it work?" Adam asked,he was doubtful about the Idea of absorbing this powerful dagger,

"We won't know until we try, right?" Elsa responded,she is by far the most calm but carefree person in this party,

"Okay."  Adam agreed; he placed the dagger on the ground and told everyone to take a step back.

 

Fuu

After taking a deep breath, Adam pulled the sword out of the scabbard that was hanging around his waist, held it tightly in his hands, and began to push his mana into it.

Ting.

The holy sword hummed softly as Adam channeled his mana through it, then slowly brought its tip towards the dagger and was about to place it when,

 Grab ,

" Stop !!"  Someone shouted and grabbed the right shoulder of Adam, stopping him from absorbing the power of the dagger.

"Huh?"Adam turned around and saw a person wearing a pure white robe with a golden lining on it.

"Who are you?" "And how did you get in here?" Adam asked, and he stepped back from his spot and brought Mistilteinn in front of him to protect himself from any ambush.

Silence,

"Me? Oh, I didn't even introduce myself! right?  "Hello, my name is Falco Falkor, and I am not an enemy but the guardian of this dagger." The man introduced himself as the guardian of the dagger.

"What do you mean by 'the guardian '. "  Adam asked, his question was how can someone barge into their place and claim to be a guardian,

Sigh

"I am the guardian of all mythical-grade weapons, and that includes this dagger, which is made from the fossil of an ancient abomination dragon. Right now, you were trying to destroy it by trying to absorb its power," Falco sighed and explained while taking some brief pauses here and there.

Grit.

"I know what I am doing; this is not the first time I am absorbing a weapon, and I have to do it if I want to kill that damn Minotauros, which is out on the battlefield. You cannot stop me from absorbing this." Adam said that for him it was important to absorb the power of the dagger since it was the only way to get a power boost in a short time.

Sigh.

"if you do that i will kill you Mr. Adam Stales."

Falco said calmly. even though he was fully covered in his hooded robe and no one could see his face.

Gulp

Everyone could feel the sudden drop in temperature, while Adam felt a chill down his spine.

Silence.

Everyone was frozen in their position.

Fuu

"Don't worry! "I won't kill you because I am here to tell you another way to use this dagger." Falco said a question mark appeared in Adam's face because of the sudden change in Falco's temperament.

"How?" Adam asked,

.

.

.

After this, Falco told them about the whole ritual thingy and somehow convinced Hero to follow the steps of the ritual.

Adam carved the symbol onto his palm and stabbed it in the center.

"Falkor."  At that time, Falco muttered something under his breath,

Boom

The dagger exploded, sending a strong shockwave and neon glow spreading across the tent.

"It's done, Klashier; come out to play." Falco was extremely happy while telling him that the ritual was done and called for someone.

Screech

Suddenly, a magic circle as big as a Frisbee disk appeared on Adam's palm, where a symbol was carved, and a reptile-like creature appeared out of it and jumped onto Adam's head.

The scales of the creature were sky blue in color, and it had a small pair of wings on his back.

"What is this?" Adam asked; he wasn't sure about all of this that happened here, including the creature that was summoned through his palm.

"It's Klashier, an abomination dragon." Falco said Klashier was a dragon that was locked inside a dimensional rift between heaven and earth. While the dagger was a mythical-grade weapon by itself, it was also a key to unlock the dimensional rift and bring Klashier back.

.

.

.

Then Falco told everyone about Klashier and explained how he could help them in this fight.

"Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Falco. How can I pay off this debt?" Adam showed his gratitude toward Falco for his help.

"There's no need to worry about it; just take care of our little Klashier." He is weakened quite a bit from living in a dimensional rift for the whole two hundred years. Falco said,

"Do not fret; I'll take care of Klashier." Adam put his fist on his chest like he was making some kind of pledge.

"That's reassuring." Falco was very happy with Adam's words,he brought his hands on his chest and,

Vanish.

After that, Falco vanished into thin air, leaving everyone surprised.

"He sure is full of surprises." Raven admired, she didn't say a word when Falco was there.

"Indeed, well now, I think I should go and see that muscle head," said Minotauros. "I have a score to settle." Adam spoke up and left the tent with Klashier.

.

.

.

.

Later that afternoon, Adam came back to the tent, covered in blood.

"We won," Adam declared the moment he entered the tent.

"Thank God!!!"Everyone was overjoyed by his return, but after a closer look, Raven noticed something.

"Where is Klashier?" Raven asked,

"Oh that creature, he died while trying to protect me."  Adam said in the most serene voice ever.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That was the story of Klashier and the dagger.

Now back to my room: Blaze looked at me and kept floating here and there in the room. 

By appearance, he looked nothing like a dragon or any living creature, and that was a huge disappointment for me.

"Well, I can't judge anyone based on how they look." That would be racist. I was thinking of something stupid.

"Hey Blaze."  I called him,

"What?" he asked.

"Are there any similarities between you and your brother Klashier?" I asked,

Blaze took a huge pause there, like he was thinking about something. After a while, he showed me a toothy smile.

"Nope, we are completely different, and trust me, I am better than him in every aspect," Blaze said. "There was a hint of evil in his eyes, and that's something I liked about him."
