Alexander The Great Mage

Chapter 108 - Realm Of Darkness



Aleyria couldn't help but chuckle lightly at the 'Princess' who was currently cursing and swearing at her and her family and parents and ancestors.

"YOU AND YOUR D*G FAMILY WILL ALL DIE PAINFUL DEATHS! YOUR MOM WILL BE DISMEMBERED! YOUR DAD WILL BE SKINNED ALIVE! YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS WILL BE BOILED ALIVE!" She screamed vehemently from within her pink mecha which was frozen in place within the central square of the City of Rin, along with 3 red mechas and the two hundred surviving mechas. The rest of the mechas had been ruthlessly savaged and completely destroyed by Aleyria's Dark Ice wolves.

"LET ME GO NOW! I COMMAND YOU! HOW DARE YOU CAPTURE ME!"

"Spicy." Isabella remarked with a laugh.

"YOU UGLY B*TCH! WHAT ARE YOU SMIRKING AT? YOU AND YOUR D*G FAMILY WILL DIE PAINFUL DEATHS ALSO!" She began.

Aleyria shook her head and sighed. She casually waved her hand and immediately, Princess Jenny froze as the space around her got locked down.

"Hey, why did you do that? I'm really learning a lot from her! I never could curse someone so fluently and so wonderfully.." Isabella said in surprise.

Aleyria laughed. They had gotten quite close very recently. Isabella had no qualms talking casually to a princess, and Aleyria for one, was rather relieved to find someone who could carry a conversation with her normally without feeling the need to bow or speak formally. And so a friendship of sorts had sprung up between Aleyria and Isabella.

"I don't really mind her curses, they're rather… entertaining. But I do not like her high tone. It's grating and makes me feel uncomfortable." Aleyria explained.

"Ah pooh. Just imagine that you're watching a play with high quality acting. I find her emotional screaming very refreshing! Quick, release your space prison!" Isabella urged Aleyria.

Aleyria rolled her eyes at Isabella, but she listened to her and released her spatial prison that was covering her head.

"PREPOSTEROUS! HOW DARE YOU TREAT A PRINCESS OF SYMPHONIA THIS WAY! MY FATHER THE EMPEROR WILL SEND HIS BEST TORTURERS HERE AND WILL FLAY YOU ALIVE! AFTER THAT I WILL ASK HIM TO THROW YOU INTO HOT WATER AND WATCH YOU SCREAM UNTIL YOU FAINT! THEN I WILL ASK HIM TO HEAL YOU AND THEN FLAY YOU ONCE MORE! YOU WILL BEG TO DIE BUT YOU WILL NOT DIE! I WILL LAUGH OVER YOUR SKINLESS BODY AND SPIT ON YOU!" She paused for a moment as she took a deep breath.

"That's very good." Isabella commented. "What else? I find your torture ideas very inspiring. I might just apply them to you."

Boom.

Aleyria laughed out loud as she saw the Princess gulp and shut her mouth completely.

"Hey, I thought you wanted to learn from her. Why shut her up this way?" Aleyria joked.

Isabella rolled her eyes at Aleyria. "I have no idea that she'll be so weak as to stop at the slightest threat. I was just encouraging her. Hey you, keep cursing at me. Aren't I an ugly bitch? What else will you do to me?"

However, Princess Jenny kept her mouth shut. She was so caught up in her indignance and fury that she didn't realize whatever she threatened to do, her captors could actually decide to do it to her first.

Isabella sighed. "I shouldn't have threatened her." She grumbled lightly. "I could have learned so many new curses to use at Dubaza."

Aleyria could only shake her head ruefully. "I think their reinforcements should be here soon. We better get in position to 'greet' them."

"Hmmm alright." Isabella agreed. She instructed her Wyvern to rise into the sky.

Aleyria followed her atop Blackfire who had turned into a mid-sized dragon.

Midair, Caerose flew up in her own Wyvern to join them. She didn't participate in 'interrogating' Princess Jenny because she didn't want her to know that she, Caerose, was on the planet.

"How was the interrogation?" Caerose asked.

"Useless." Aleyria replied. "She was too worked up to say anything worthy of note. Plus we didn't have much time. Their reinforcements should be here soon.

"There's no hurry though. With the crazy plan which King Aloxandros had prepared for us, we could be very late and we'll still be fine. It's amazing how he could think of such a sneaky plan. In all the years I've served as his King's Guard, I've never realized that his brain works in such a way. He has changed a lot, don't you think?" Isabella glanced at Aleyria slyly.

Aleyria only smiled at Isabella's words and said. "Yes, he has changed a lot."

"Like for example, this initial plan to set up such a perfect ambush, it truly is incredible! I never would have thought of such a plan. Over three thousand mechas captured or destroyed. Amazing!" Isabella gushed, totally ignoring the fact that she was the strongest critic of the plan when Alexander first put it forward.

"And the follow up plan? Work of art. Simply a work of art!" Isabella praised.

*-*-*-*-*

Not five minutes later, a shrill scream could be heard.

"WHO THE F*CK CAME UP WITH THIS RETARDED PLAN?! IT'S COMPLETE BULLSH*T!!"

Aleyria laughed. It was a nervous kind of laugh though, because the sight before her was truly shocking. And worrying.

Near hundred meter tall mechas, even a thousand or two of them, can be dealt with easily by the Dark Ice wolves. Although the wolves were much smaller, their darkness attribute weakened the enemy's mental strength and combined with the ice magic barrage supported by the thousands of mages, the wolves were able to completely overwhelm the mechas.

However, what could they do against eighty thousand mechas?

"How many wolves can you summon?" Isabella asked Aleyria urgently.

"Alot. But not THAT many." Aleyria said dryly. "But those wolves aren't my strongest summon."

"They're not? That's great!" Isabella cried out in relief. "Quick, summon your strongest summons! And how many of them can you summon?"

Caerose looked at Aleyria suspiciously. The Dark Ice Wolves weren't her strongest summon? It was already bloody impressive that she was able to summon Dark Ice Wolves, and so many at that, in such a short time since she mastered the Darkness element.

If those wolves weren't her strongest summon, then, by her understanding, the next step up would be…

"I can only summon one." Aleyria replied.

"Just one?? Is it very powerful?" Isabella frowned slightly.

"Very powerful." Aleyria said. However, she didn't move to summon it.

Caerose stretched out her hand and placed it on Aleyria's shoulder. Aleyria's hesitance and the fact that it was just one summon had confirmed her suspicions. She knew which summon Aleyria was referring to.

"It's too dangerous." Caerose said softly.

At that, Isabella perked up slightly. A very dangerous summon? What could that be?

"If it's too dangerous, then let me deal with the mechas." Blackfire said in his deep voice.

"No." Aleyria rejected his proposal firmly. "Alexander said that this is as much war training as it is a defense of our land. Apart from Caerose and you, we do not have any experience at all in dealing with forces outside of Arcanus 26. I will exhaust my powers first before allowing you to step in."

"As you wish." Blackfire replied with a fearsome dragon smile. He liked this Princess. He had no regrets at all signing a blood contract with her.

"Plus if… it goes out of control. I am sure that Lord Blackfire can handle it. He can, can he?" Aleyria asked Caerose nervously.

"If it goes out of control, I doubt even Blackfire can deal with it." Caerose said with a frown.

Blackfire chuckled. "You dark mages overestimate your powers too much. Don't worry about me. Just summon the strongest summon you can. I will deal with it if it goes out of your control."

"Are you sure old man?" Caerose asked him doubtfully. "I know dragons are powerful, but this is the Lord of Darkness we're talking about. One of the strongest demons in the realm of darkness."

"Ha ha. Lord of Darkness, Queen of Terror, King of Whateverdarkrealmyoucomefrom, just summon them all. I'll destroy them if need be." Blackfire said confidently.

"What's a Lord of Darkness?" Isabella interrupted. "And what realm of darkness?"

"The realm of darkness is a realm that space and dark mages can access. Just like the realm of ice and the realm of fire from whence my ice elementals and fire elementals come from. The Dark Ice wolves come from the realm of darkness." Aleyria explained.

Isabella nodded in understanding.

"However, I have no idea what Lord of Darkness you're talking about?" Aleyria asked Caerose.

"You don't? What are you planning to summon then?" Caerose asked in surprise as well.

"He told me his name is Regis Darkbane." Aleyria answered.

"Regis Darkbane…?" Caerose frowned and thought hard. The name sounded familiar.

"Regis Darkbane, Devil King of the Darkbane Kingdom." Aleyria elaborated.

"WHAT?!" Caerose shouted.

"DEVIL KING?!" Blackfire shouted.

"THAT DOESN'T SOUND GOOD!" Isabella shouted after hearing Caerose and Blackfire shout with so much shock in their voices.
