Rise of the Legendary Emperor

Chapter 1: Return

The sky is clear as a clean slate, the mountain peaks are standing like they are going to reach the sky. The sun is slowly setting in the west of the outer lands.

A shadow landed on the mountain peak dyed by the sunset. A long sword at his side and a sledgehammer like a weapon on his back, he stared at the sun falling towards the horizon. "12 years....." His eyes filled with a mix of feelings, "I, Don, have returned." he hissed, spitting the name of an empire through gritted teeth. "Moon Empire"

"It's been 12 years since I have left the Moon empire, now I've finally returned. This time I will make everyone pay for what they have done to me.I, Don will fulfill my promise Sister Elena as well as take revenge on everyone who took you away from me"

Nobody had known that his revenge was going to decide the fate of the entire realm.

Don jumped down the mountain and started to walk on the only road that seems to be used by humans.

"Looks like outer lands didn't improve at all if my memory serves me right. This part of the forests was inherited by white elves, I wonder if they are still here though"

After taking a few moments to scan his environment, Don looked at the falling sun in the horizon

"It's almost night I need to camp out in the forest and find someone to ask about the current state of the mortal realm before I make any moves"

As he said, Don closed his eyes while he raised his hand, drawing the structure of a camp. The earth in front of him moved to take an identical shape to what he drew in the air.

Seeing the camp, he scratched his head. "A little clumsy-looking but will do for now. Hey Knight." He raised a ring to eye level "You done sleeping? If you don't hunt food we will be sleeping on empty stomachs."

A bright light emerges from his ring and Landed in front of him, the light forms the figure of a white lion with a majestic mane and angel-like wings. Its form was huge and its muscles were brimming with power. The lion lazily ruffled its mane, turning towards its master.

"Knight shrink your form a little I'm pretty sure if someone sees you in this size they will freak out"

Knight shrank his body to the size of an average lion. "You humans are small-minded." He chuckled, his deep voice reverberating in the air. "Imagine the audacity! Asking the king of the forest to hunt for you." He shook his head sighing and went to the deeper end of the forest "And I'm an idiot for actually hunting for you..."

An hour later Knight returned with a beast in his mouth. "These Horned Bull Deers are pretty weak." He commented.

Don shook his head "This place is dangerous don't let your guard down." Knight rolled his eyes in response. Don sighed "I'll nap for a while, watch the area for me." Knight grunted an affirmative and sat near Don.

After 4 hours,

Suddenly Knight stood up with his wings spread and teeth and claws out he woke up Don by using the telepathic link, an ability of magic beasts that allows them to communicate with their master using magic waves.

"Don wake up I've just heard battle sounds and cries from the deeper forest".

Don quickly rushed out of the camp and made it disappear in an instant.

" Don, I've searched the nearby areas with my sense of magic. It appears the sounds and heat waves coming far from here, from the sounds I've heard I'm guessing some village is being destroyed by someone like bandits."

Don silently though

"If I save that village I'm sure they will help me to get closer to my promise and revenge," Don said to himself.

"Knight how far is that place from here?"

"If we fly there we will reach there in minutes"

Don hopped on Knight and Knight took off at high speed. Knight soared through the night sky like an eagle, and with his speed, they reached the village in no time.

"It seems like this is a white elves village and the attackers looks like humans"

The humans are overwhelming the white elves by their large number, even though white elves are skilled archers they can't defend their children and home and attack the humans.

In simpler terms white elves soldiers were fighting a losing battle.

One side the bandits are attacking them ferociously and the other side of the fire set by them are destroying white elves home at the same time.

Amid the battle a group of elven children targeted by some bandits.

One of the elves children picked up a stick from the ground and stood between the children and the vicious bandits

A brave elven child said "If you take one more step I will kill you all"

The bandits grinned as their killing intent rose

One of the bandits said "You filthy brat! What are you gonna do with that small stick? I will show you a real weapon before I kill you brats."

The children were shivering and praying the gods while the bandit drew his long sword and started to shout

"This is where you're gonna die brats".

Suddenly a swirl of wind crossed the bandit's face and he looked down to see a hand holding a sword rolling on the ground. The other bandits were clueless about what just happened

while the bandit who lost his arms shouting in pain, Don appeared in front of the children out of nowhere

" You should have picked someone as your own size instead of these children"

Don turned towards the children and pat the head of the brave child with the stick

"You did good kid, now let me deal with those and stay behind this wall"

The children were frightened and at the same time relieved and looked clueless for the wall.

Don lifted his hand and a wall started to come from the ground in front of the children.

After he created the wall Don, he looked at the bandits with the terrifying killing intent in his eyes

"Being strong does not give you the right to bully the week I hate your kind the most"

The bandit with one arm ordered the others

"What are you idiots looking at?? kill him and the brats slice him up!"

Bandits wasted no time and started to run towards Don.

However the moment they came closer to Don, a giant fist made of the earth came out of nowhere and blasted the bandits through the trees.

With the force of the attack, the bandits stood no chance and started their journey to hell.

Don looked up at Knight floating in the sky

"Knight attack all the bandits and don't show them any mercy"

After he said that to Knight, both of them slaughtered most of the bandits and saved as many elves as he could.

And eventually, Don reached the center of the village where many white elves men and women were tied and a large man with a cut on his face fighting was with an elf.

Don hid in the shadows and watched what's going on,

"Hmm looks like he is the leader of the bandits and who is the white elf fighting him? I have to interfere with the fight. The elf guy might be good at long range combat but he surely cannot win against that guy in close combat and the elf looks like he has already taken many hits. I'm counting 10 bandits including the big one and their costume looks different than the rest of the bandits I've killed"
