Saga of The Night God

Erwin's eyes opened wide, and a silver light radiated from them, blinding the figure and forcing him to shield his eyes. The dark energy blasts stopped as the figure stumbled backward.

James and Meredith gasped in amazement as they watched the child's body float higher and higher into the air. The silver light intensified, spreading out like ripples in a pond, engulfing everything around them.

The figure growled, "You fool don't know what you're doing. You're playing with forces beyond your control." He turned to leave but stopped when he noticed that the ground beneath him had become unstable, cracking and splitting apart.

James and Meredith were too entranced by the spectacle to notice the surrounding danger. They watched in awe as the silver light filled the entire area, illuminating everything in a brilliant glow.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a massive wave of energy blasted through the area, knocking the hobbyists off their feet. The figure managed to keep his balance, but he was thrown backward, landing several feet away.

As Erwin's silver eyes shone brightly, a strange voice boomed out of his small frame. "Who are you people? Why are you here?" The voice was deep and otherworldly, sending shivers down James's spine.

"who are you?" James questioned back.

Erwin's silver eyes shone brightly, and he spoke with a deep and otherworldly voice. "I am the Ikat, . Leave now, or suffer the consequences."

Before anyone could respond, he lunged forward, kicking Alex in the chest with incredible force. She went flying backward, crashing into a nearby tree.

Meredith tried to defend herself, but he was too quick. He landed a series of blows on her, sending her tumbling to the ground. James tried to intervene, but Ikat turned his attention to him, delivering a devastating blow that left him unconscious.

Ikat stood over his fallen opponents, his eyes glowing with a malevolent light. "You mortals are no match for me. And You dare to harm my child."

Alex staggered to her feet, her chest throbbing with pain. "We weren't trying to harm him, we were just playing with him," and smiled sarcastically.

His silver eyes narrowed his eyes at her. "Playing with him? You were toying with him."

As Ikat looked down at James lying on the ground, a mana circle materialized on his hand, glowing with a mysterious energy. In a swift motion, a beam of black light shot forth from the circle and enveloped James, pulsing with a faint aura.

As the beam made contact with his body, James began to disintegrate as if he were made of sand.

Meredith and Alex stood frozen, watching in horror as James crumbled into the dust before their eyes. They couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was like something out of a nightmare.

As soon as James died, Ikat turned his attention towards Meredith and Alex, his eyes filled with an intense hatred. He rushed towards them, sending waves of dark energy that hit them hard, causing them to stagger.

Meredith recovered quickly, her body enveloped in a red aura. "How dare you attack us!" she roared, charging towards him with her red dagger in hand.

But Ikat was too powerful, easily dodging her attacks and striking back with his own. Alex tried to use her own magic, but it was no match for Ikat's strength. She was hit hard and thrown across the clearing, landing heavily on the ground.

Meredith was determined to fight back, but she too was no match for him. He knocked her off her feet and leaving her gasping for air.

"You two thought you could use this child for your own purposes. But I won't let that happen," Ikat growled, his eyes filled with anger.

Meredith struggled to get up, her body bruised and battered. "We were only trying to harness his power," she spat, her voice filled with defiance.

His silver eyes blazed with fury as he lifted his hand, ready to strike again. Meredith and Alex realized that they were outmatched and turned to flee.

They ran as fast as they could, stumbling and tripping over the uneven ground. He was relentless, chasing after them and launching attacks that left them heavily injured.

Finally, they managed to get far enough away, Ikat stopped pursuing them. Meredith and Alex collapsed on the ground, their bodies wracked with pain.

Alex looked back and said. "What was that? Did you ever heard of him?" James gasped, his breath coming in short, ragged gasps.

Meredith nodded, her face pale with fear. "No, he....was like a.... Noxer in the tails...of night-lings."

Alex's eyes widened in terror. "The Knights of the God, that Noxer? I thought they were myths. But why possess the child's bodies?"

Sitting on a throne made of bodies, a man adorned in armor held a human head in his hand, whose face was concealed by a silver mask. Then he gazed upon the wounded golden masked warrior before him.

The golden masked warrior stood there, panting and covered in blood, her aura sword still in hand. She looked around at the carnage that surrounded her, at the bodies of her fallen comrades and the dead guards and guests. Her heart was heavy with sorrow and regret, but she knew that she had done what she had to do. She had fought for her cause, and she had emerged victorious.

The man chuckled sadistically, his armor clanging as he tossed the severed head aside. "Your cause is futile, little warrior. You and your kind will never succeed against us," he taunted, his voice laced with arrogance.

The golden masked warrior gritted her teeth, summoning every ounce of her remaining strength to stand up. She knew she couldn't let duke and his followers win, no matter the cost. "You may have defeated me, but you'll never break our spirit," she spat back, her voice filled with defiance.

She tried to take a step forward, but her wounds sent searing pain throughout her body. Still, she refused to give up. She had a plan, and she had to escape to make it work.

Summoning all her energy, she made a run for the exit. The man and his followers didn't even flinch, thinking she was too weak to escape. But the golden masked warrior had a trick up her sleeve. She retrieved a vial from her pouch and hurled it at the ground, creating a thick smoke that blinded her pursuers.

She sprinted through the corridors, her heart racing with fear and adrenaline as she heard the sounds of footsteps behind her. "Hurry, this way!" a voice called out, and she followed it blindly.

As they emerged from the castle, she saw a two men there. "come with us," one of them said.

As they were running away from the Duke's palace, the fat man kept looking back to see if anyone was following her. warrior could hear the Duke's guards shouting and running behind her. But fortunately the tow man had a plan. From there action they seem to have explored the palace grounds many times before and knew every nook and cranny.

They quickly ducked behind some bushes and waited for the guards to pass her by. Once they had gone, she sprinted towards the edge of the palace grounds. She knew that there was a small gap in the wall, which she had used before to sneak out and explore the jungle beyond.

As she reached the wall, she could hear the guards getting closer. With a burst of energy, she jumped onto the wall and climbed up. Once she reached the top, she saw the guards coming towards her. Without hesitating, she jumped off the other side and landed on the ground.

Warrior quickly picked herself up and started running towards the dense jungle. She knew that the Duke's guards would not follow her into the dangerous and unknown territory of the jungle. With her heart pounding in her chest, she pushed herself to run even faster.

After running for what seemed like hours, they finally slowed down and caught her breath. It was then that they heard a faint sound coming from nearby.

As they made their way through the dense jungle, they stumbled upon a small clearing. In the center lay a child, unconscious and alone. They rushed over to the child, checking for any injuries or signs of life.

Masked warrior gently lifted the child's head, inspecting his face. "He's so young. What could he be doing out here all alone?"

Fat man looked around the clearing, scanning for any signs of danger. "I don't know, but we can't can't take him with us. He will be dead weight to us."

Handsome man nodded in agreement. "We should take him back to the village. They'll know what to do."

The wounded warrior disregarded the advice and began to run, clutching the child in her arms. She gazed at the child with admiration in her eyes and thought, "I am fortunate to have you with me."

"Little one, you will be my means to spare from her anger,"  she muttered under her breath as she continued running towards the safety of the nearby forest. The child, unaware of the gravity of the situation, gurgled happily in her arms. The warrior knew that her enemies would stop at nothing to get the child back, but she was determined to protect her at any cost.
