Skarz looked at me with an intense gaze, the flames of the nearby campfire reflected in his eyes. "Loyalty, no matter what," he said, his voice deep and husky. "That's what my father taught me. And that's what being a true minotaur is all about." I nodded, understanding his words all too well. Loyalty was important to me too, but there was a difference between loyalty and being used. "Your father doesn't respect you or who you are," I said, my voice low but firm. "Do you want to live a life where…

Fenghis attacked first, boasting about the power of his spell. "Prepare to witness my most superior attack you cretin!" (Fenghis) However, I remained silent and waited for him to unleash his spell's destructive force. He extended his arms forward and placed his palms together with a small gap between them, channeling his mana towards the center. A pink orb of magic gathered in his hands as he shouted, .

... ... ... I had clapped my hands, drawing Fenghis' attention. "I have a proposal," I said calmly. Fenghis raised his eyebrows. "And what could that be?" he asked, his tone skeptical. "Let's make the fight end quickly and without shedding any more blood," I said. Fenghis seemed intrigued, but remained wary. "How do you suggest we do that?" "A test of power," I said.

... ... ... Lumiere scanned the battlefield with a frown etched on his face. The once mighty minotaur army had dwindled to a paltry few, and Lumiere couldn't believe his luck. His eyes darted toward the distance and he could see Serena in the distance, her petite figure almost lost in the vast landscape before him. Lumiere waved at her, and she dutifully lowered her head in a show of respect. "Take over, Mimosa," Lumiere said, turning to his trusted ally. "I'm joining the others to…

... ... ... Fasit stood at the front lines of the battle, her voluptuous figure adorned in her usual attire that hugged her every curve. "Watch this," she said to Mimosa, a mischievous glint in her eyes. She extended her palm and created a sphere of flame, casually tossing it into the sky. The sphere exploded in a spiral column of fire, engulfing the area in front of them in a massive inferno. The heat of 3000°C was unleashed upon the 120 minotaurs who had dared to challenge the…

... ... ... As the minotaurs marched forward with their weapons, axes, clubs, and shields, Mojito felt a sense of dread creeping up his spine. The thick smell of rust and blood from the wild animals they devoured prior to entering battle filled the air. Their chanting of a war anthem only added to the tension in the air. "Brothers!" Mojito shouted to the grygans surrounding him. "Do not falter! Show your strength and make our great lord, Lumiere Venrite Del Silva, proud!" But just then, a…

... ... ... The sounds of clanging armor and heavy footsteps echoed through the Wyvern Pass as the minotaur army made their way towards their destination. Fenghis Rhan, the Minotaur Lord, walked at the front of the group, his massive form casting a menacing shadow on the rocky earth mounds around them. Suddenly, one of the soldiers stopped in his tracks, sniffing the air. "Something's not right," he growled, his eyes scanning the surrounding area. "I smell... Grygan blood." Fenghis…

I sat beside Serena, watching as each leader in the village showcased their new abilities gained through what the Cross Kingdom would call the Affinity Ceremony. My mind was buzzing with excitement and anticipation as I waited for my own grygan to reveal their newly unlocked skills. Mojito, the leader of the security division, was the first to present his abilities. He had unlocked his affinity for , a powerful form of magic intrinsically acquired by grygans.

I woke up feeling refreshed after a long day of resting. Serena lay next to me, already up and chatting away with Fasit about something. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the last bit of sleep. "Good morning," I croaked. They both turned to me and bowed. "Good morning, my lord," Serena said, her voice soft and sweet. Before I could say anything else, Serena rushed towards me and embraced me in a tight hug. Her chest pressed against mine, and I couldn't help but feel a little…

| Days till the minotaurs attack ~ 2 | As I arrived in the center of the village, I looked around at the grygans, hoping to catch their attention. I couldn't help but smirk at their curious stares. I knew they were aware of the impending war and I needed to address them. I took a deep breath and began, "My fellow grygans, as you all know, we are on the brink of war. However, I'm doing all I can to bring it to an end as soon as possible." The people started murmuring amongst themselves, unsure of what…
