Tens of knights emerged from the light portal with brown aura striking the Black Order's agents effortlessly one of them cries out : For Elpha! For the glory of VAA !

  and then one Emperor emerged from a light portal wearing a light armor with gems stones on it and welding a Crystal spear looking at Deicer.

  Emperor Laors whispers: we're gonna buy the time you need ... so hurry... time is running out ...

  Dicer looking at The Emperor.

  his faces changed. In cold tone:

  If you dare Ruining my plans your planet's will be next ...

  The fall of the Knight of Aurik was a devastating blow. Despair threatened to break the United Kingdoms. Yet, his sacrifice and The emperor's intervention after Layla's desperate call bought precious time.

  Clash of Titans — The Sky Burns Above Silva

  Laros raised his spear high into the sky.

  Daylight trembled.

  The heavens above Silva ignited with a blinding flare, as if Elpha itself answered his call.

  "Elpha!" Laros roared.

  "Show me the path!"

  A brown aura erupted from his body, swirling like molten earth. His spear pulsed with ancient energy, its crystal tip glowing with a strange rhythm. His eyes—deep brown—lit with fury as they locked onto Deicer.

  You’ve destroyed, slaughtered, spilled blood… and yet, you still crave more.

  What do you seek?

  A world where you stand alone?

  What purpose does that serve?"

  Dicer chuckled, voice low and venomous.

  "I'll make you a lesson...

  For all who dare resist."

  He unleashed a shadow aura that blanketed Silva's sky in dread. Thunder cracked. Lightning rained down, striking his own soldiers—one by one—consumed by his wrath.

  Laros pointed his spear at Dicer.

  "Silva fights you.

  Elpha fights you.

  The world itself rejects you!"

  Dicer hurled a wave of corrupted magic—black fire laced with decay. It twisted the air, rotted the ground, and surged toward Laros.

  Laros spun his spear, forming a barrier of earthen light. The blast shattered against it, and behind him, a portal tore open.

  From its depths, agents of the Black Order poured forth.

  Laros didn't flinch.

  He dashed forward, his spear a blur—striking each enemy with precision. One by one, they fell, crushed by the weight of his fury.

  Then—he lunged at Dicer.

  Their weapons clashed. Spear against claw. Light against void.

  "It's too late," Dicer hissed.

  "The end has begun."

  "Honor and greatness are my path!" Laros roared.

  Behind him, the knights of VAA surged forward, breaking the Black Order's ranks.

  Then—five figures emerged from the shadows:

  Riz.

  Valon.

  Azalor.

  Macferdin.

  Dais.

  They joined the fray, unleashing chaos.

  But the five kingdoms answered.

  Knights of Linovard.

  Mages of Aurik.

  Sailors of Leonithra.

  Healers of the Luminous Tree.

  Soldiers of Leona.

  The battlefield erupted.

  Spells collided. Firestorms roared. Healing light bathed the wounded. Enchanted armor from Leona shimmered, unbreakable even under Azalor's cursed bolts.

  Dicer soared into the black sky, his body cloaked in a storm of Silva's wrath.

  Laros followed.

  Their clash lit the heavens.

  Dicer hurled obsidian flames—twisting, screaming magic.

  Laros deflected with his crystal spear, then spun mid-air, diving toward Deicer.

  Dais watched from below, eyes wide as the sky itself pulsed with their duel.

  Laros struck—a flash of brown aura slicing Deicer's shoulder.

  Dicer reeled.

  Laros raised his spear.

  The ground trembled.

  Black Order agents collapsed, crushed by gravitational force summoned from Silva's core.

  Deicer laughed, blood trailing from his mouth.

  "You defend a distant world...

  While your own lies in ruin."

  Laros's eyes narrowed.

  He stepped forward, voice calm, deadly.

  Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

  "You...

  Are the ruin."

  Suddenly, Laros heard a voice—one only he could hear.

  A cry for help.

  A desperate echo from the heart of Elpha.

  "They're attacking, Emperor!

  They've reached my core!"

  Laros turned to Deicer, his voice low and burning.

  "You wretch..."

  Then he roared:

  "Knights!

  Keep fighting!

  Hold the line!"

  A radiant portal flared behind him—light bending, space trembling.

  Laros locked eyes with Deicer one last time.

  Then vanished into the light.

  Deicer threw back his head and laughed, voice booming across the battlefield.

  "I'll destroy you all—together!"

  The Last Signal — When the Five Faced the Storm

  At the highest peaks of Silva, where snow falls eternally,

  Aorlando stood—arms raised, hammer in hand—

  Holding back a thunderous avalanche that threatened to reshape the very map of Silva.

  Across the summit, a cloaked figure pressed his palm to the ice, a black aura swirling around him.

  A duel of magic—sharp, deadly, and absolute.

  In the ocean’s abyss, Arnold commanded the tides.

  Beside him, a colossal whale surged through the depths.

  Together, they carved swift paths for ships—ferries of soldiers and knights—linking kingdoms, blocking intruders from gathering or sailing freely.

  Then—another figure emerged.

  Clad in black, arms raised.

  The currents twisted.

  A massive whirlpool formed, slowing the fleets.

  humongous ship, appears from a fog filled with tens of black orders agents and knights only to be struck down by massive Whale … and drown

  Arnold lifted his hands. A radiant blue aura enveloped him.

  The whale struck the sea with its tail—shattering the vortex.

  then Arnold teleported.

  Above Leona’s palace, Orentos stood with closed eyes.

  He bent the winds to his will, preventing the formation of shadowed clouds.

  In the heart of the Luminous Tree’s village, Falros placed his hands upon the ancient trunk.

  It pulsed with light.

  In Aurik’s royal hall, Princess Layla stood at the center.

  Eyes closed, hands raised—

  The flames atop Aurik’s towers surged higher, casting warmth across the realm.

  Then—

  The five mages opened their eyes.

  The crimson star faded from the sky....

  At this moment the five mages realized the defeat of Aurik knight (sir Elaie)

  Aorlando slammed his hammer into the earth.

  The ground split—forming a vast canyon.

  The avalanche fell into it and vanished.

  Aorlando teleported.

  In the oceans, Arnold’s aura flared.

  The whale roared—breaking the whirlpool.

  Arnold teleported.

  A blizzard approached—dark clouds, thunder, lightning.

  Orentos struck with his staff.

  A tempest of wind met the storm, driving it away from the kingdoms.

  He teleported.

  Falros opened his eyes.

  The Luminous Tree shimmered gently.

  He vanished.

  Princess Layla lowered her hands.

  The towers dimmed.

  The warmth faded.

  Winter returned.

  She teleported.

  —

  The five reappeared—

  In a cave.

  Familiar.

  Ancient.

  Princess Layla spoke quickly.

  “It’s happening…

  Daicer is approaching the Library of Oryst.

  The knight of Aurik… he may…”

  A thunderous sound echoed from above.

  Layla’s eyes widened.

  “This is our last chance.

  The VAA knights have arrived—with the Emperor.

  It’s the only way.

  We must act.”

  Falros Talking with sorrow: our planarity sister Elpha sacrifice herself sending the emperor himself to defend us while been attacked ..to defend Silva … what a shame …

  The faces of the five mages darkened.

  Silent.

  Heavy with sorrow.

  The Five Mages' Last desperate Stand: The Obliteration

  Witnessing Elaie's death Laros retreating., Layla and the other Four Mages converged. Their faces were grim, their eyes alight with grief and resolve. They knew this was the end, for them and perhaps for Silva.

  They retreated to the Cave of Aur, a sacred place infused with ancient power, preparing for a spell of unimaginable scale. Daicer, sensing their desperation with his overconfident, pursued them, leading his primary forces directly to the cave mouth and stopping his march into Oryst. He intended to capture them, to strip Silva of its last hope.

  Inside the Cave of Aur, Layla, bleeding and crawling from a grievous wound inflicted by Daicer after a Unimageable fights while the four preparing the spell, imbued the very stone with her essence. The Five Mages began their final incantation. Silva responded one last time, channeling raw energy into their ritual.

  (The Five Mages, including a wounded Princess Layla, performing a massive, planet-shaking spell within the glowing crimson crystal chamber of the Cave of Aur that spell start to shake the very roof of the world. Energy erupts from their hands, swirling into a central vortex, while Daicer and his Black Order forces are visible, stunned and recoiling at the cave entrance, as the forces from all the kingdoms standing on their way)

  Dsicer Jump high as he was preparing a strange spell from his hands yet in the short moments...

  The spell was a torrent of pure, unadulterated magical power—an Obliteration. It didn't just kill; it erased. A wave of light and force erupted from the Cave of Aur, washing over the valley. Daicer's forces and himself, caught unaware, were vaporized. Not even ash remained. The invaders, as the forces of Silva, the Black Order, were annihilated from the face of Silva.

  But the cost was indeed terrible.

  The Five Mages, their bodies consumed by the very magic they wielded, vanished. Their essence became part of Silva, their names etched into the cave's memory. The planet's terrain was irrevocably shattered, twisted into the desolate landscape known today.

  The boy looking from above floating in the sky trimerized: so, this is the valley of wonders...

  The Retaliation and the Scorched Soul: The Black Calamity

  Even in their annihilation, the Black Order had a final, devastating act of spite. As their last remnants faded, the invaders unleashed a forbidden weapon—a magical bomb of immense, destructive power. It was not aimed at cities or the remaining armies, but at the very heart of Silva's magic, its life force.

  The impact was known as the Black Calamity. It didn't just scorch the land; it scorched Silva's soul. The vibrant magic that once flowed freely became tainted, dangerous, or locked away. The unified kingdoms collapsed, scattered and broken. Oryst, once a center of knowledge, fell into ruin, its secrets buried beneath sand and forgotten spells. The Luminous Tree, though still alive, became isolated, its powerful healing magic a rare commodity.

  The world was left hollow, bleeding

  The Storm Awakens - Whispers Beneath the Comet

  The child stirred.

  His body jolted.

  His eyes blazed sky-blue—radiant, unnatural.

  A voice echoed in his mind. Familiar. Distant. Ancient.

  "Go to the Valley of Wonders...

  They need you.

  You carry hope upon your shoulders..."

  Outside the fortress, agents of the Black Order gathered, weapons drawn.

  Azalor's enchantment began to unravel.

  "He's breaking the spell!" one of them shouted.

  Two warlocks stepped forward, staffs raised.

  A violet-black aura surged toward the child, reinforcing the enchantment.

  The boy trembled violently.

  Then—wind howled.

  Clouds churned.

  A storm was coming.

  —

  In Aurik's Royal Palace

  Prince Lucas froze, eyes locked on the message.

  The air shifted.

  Dais's expression darkened. He glanced at Batalos.

  Batalos bowed.

  "If you'll excuse me, Your Highness...

  I have urgent matters to attend."

  Laika watched him closely.

  Batalos exited swiftly.

  He rode toward the old fortress, eyes on the sky.

  Storm clouds gathered.

  "Damn that child..." he muttered.

  From the balcony, Prince Asser watched Batalos disappear into the distance.

  "Where is he going?"

  —

  Outside the Palace Gates

  Prince Lucas mounted his horse, his delegation close behind.

  Jabir approached.

  "Your Highness?

  What happened?

  Did the summit go well?"

  Lucas paused, eyes heavy.

  Jabir pressed gently.

  "May I ask... the contents of the message?

  Your face changed the moment you read it.

  Is the princess safe?"

  Lucas nodded slowly.

  "She's... safe.

  But the disease is evolving.

  My people are attacking each other."

  Jabir's eyes widened.

  "What?"

  "I must go.

  There's no time."

  "Then allow me to send someone with you."

  "The summit failed.

  Asser and I... disagreed."

  Jabir sighed.

  "I expected that.

  I don't serve Asser.

  I follow my own instincts."

  Lucas raised an eyebrow.

  "To be honest...

  I need all the help I can get."

  Jabir gestured.

  Fouad stepped forward.

  "Fouad—this is Prince Lucas of Leona."

  Fouad stiffened.

  "An assassin?"

  "Exactly what you need."

  "Take him.

  He may seem simple, but he's skilled and honest.

  You need someone loyal—especially now."

  Lucas smirked.

  "An honest assassin?

  Are you mocking me, Jabir?"

  Jabir laughed.

  "I said the same thing once.

  But somehow... Fouad's heart remains clean.

  He's lethal.

  But he doesn't lie."

  Lucas smiled. His delegation looked on, puzzled.

  "No time for greetings, Fouad.

  I need you."

  Fouad turned to Jabir.

  "You insulted me and praised me in the same breath! how dare you!

  Wait till I return!"

  Jabir smiled and waved him off.

  "Safe travels."

  Fouad mounted a horse and rode with Lucas.

  —

  Back in the Palace

  Prince Asser stepped out, turning to Princess Kasrahh.

  "Shall we eat together?"

  "Of course."

  "Varon—guard the main gate.

  The weather is... strange."

  "As you command."

  "Laika—please work with Dais to prepare the cure for Leona.

  Until Batalos returns."

  He turned to Dais.

  "Where did Batalos go?"

  "I sent him to gather herbs that could help regarding the matters, Your Highness."

  Asser nodded.

  "Come, Kasrahh."

  They departed.

  Laika watched Dais.

  Varon drew his sword.

  Laika raised her hands toward Dais and Varon.

  Then—

  Jabir entered, weapon drawn.

  "Did I miss something?

  Perhaps a tea party?

  Shall we postpone it?

  The weather's not ideal..."

  Storms and Sweets - Beneath the Gathering Sky

  Dark energy coiled around Dais, a black aura rising like smoke.

  Around Varon, a violet shimmer pulsed, steady and sharp.

  Then—Jabir.

  A wild, untamed blue aura burst from him, crackling like lightning. He stared at Dais.

  Dais and Varon froze, stunned by the sheer force of it.

  "Are you truly sure," Jabir said calmly,

  "that this is how you want to begin?

  Surely you have more important things to do than kill a charming merchant and a lovely lady?"

  Dais glanced at the sky—winds howled, clouds churned.

  His hands lowered.

  Varon sheathed his sword.

  Jabir relaxed, lowering his weapon, turning to Laika.

  "You have work to do, don't you?

  A cure to find—for Leona.

  As Prince Asser requested."

  He winked playfully and strolled toward the exit.

  "If you do decide to start that tea party...

  Please invite me.

  I wouldn't want to miss royal tea with such fine company.

  And don't forget the great Batalos..."

  His voice faded into the storm.

  —

  Inside the Royal Chambers

  Prince Asser entered Kasrahh's room, gazing out the window.

  "Something's strange...

  This storm—it keeps returning."

  Kasrahh opened her eyes, hesitant.

  "Maybe it's a sign..."

  "Maybe.

  Maybe not."

  She stared at him, surprised.

  "I ordered your favorite cake.

  Qadir should be here any moment.

  We can have tea, even if the weather disagrees."

  Kasrahh sat, sipping her tea.

  "How did your meeting with Prince Lucas go?"

  Asser smiled bitterly.

  "The worst thing I've done."

  Kasrahh laughed.

  "Why?"

  "He attacked me with words, taught me a lesson,

  and ended with a threat of invasion—

  just to prove we're unprepared.

  He said the disease in Leona might be deadly...

  and that my poor decisions are infecting Aurik.

  A terrible metaphor, right?"

  Kasrahh sighed.

  "It's alright.

  Let's eat cake."

  A knock.

  "Your Highness?"

  "Qadir! Bring the cake in."

  Qadir entered, beaming, and placed the cake on the table. He sliced it, handing pieces to Asser and Kasrahh.

  "A cake made with love!"

  "Step away from the cake," Asser teased.

  "You'll ruin it."

  "What? I made it!"

  Kasrahh laughed, holding her brother's hand.

  Qadir winked. Asser nodded subtly, unnoticed by Kasrahh.

  "Let's enjoy it," Asser said.

  "Yes!" Kasrahh grinned.

  Outside, the storm raged. Wind howled. Clouds thickened.

  They finished the cake—one slice remained.

  Asser stood.

  "It's been a long day.

  I'll leave you to rest."

  "We'll talk tomorrow," Kasrahh said.

  "Of course."

  Wait after two days it will be my birthday!," Kasrahh said.

  Asser smirked: as if I care?

  Oh yeah ? You care about destroying the summit and meetings!

  Asser chuckled

  "silence"

  He closed the door behind him.

  "Varon will be here soon.

  Don't worry."

  Kasrahh looked out the window.

  Rain began to fall—soft, steady.

  Then—a knock.

  "Varon?"

  "Yes, my lady."

  "I was about to sleep, but I waited for you.

  Have some cake."

  "That's not necessary."

  "It's a royal order, Varon."

  He stepped forward, took the slice.

  "A royal order... for cake?

  That's a misuse of power."

  Kasrahh stood.

  "Everything's broken.

  Cake is fine."

  Varon raised an eyebrow.

  "It's... delicious.

  Being a princess must be hard.

  Eating cake every day.

  Ordering people to eat cake.

  Such a burden."

  Kasrahh laughed aloud.

  "Silence.

  Go. I want to sleep."

  Varon stared at her, then slowly backed away, pausing at the door.

  He stepped outside.

  Dais walking in the corridor seeing Varon standing Infront of the princess door ...

  Varon unsheathed his sword

  Dais smirking

  Varon : as your orders and the prince orders of course.

  Dais continues walking

  Varon whispers: she is sleeping...

  —

  Dais stormed through the palace halls, muttering:

  "I'll kill you, you rotten merchant..."

  —

  Meanwhile, Jabir walked through the storm, heading toward the Emerald Inn.

  Night had fallen.

  The wind howled.

  Rain whispered across the stones.

  And the storm was far from over....
