Chapter 6: Construction of a proper kingdom.
CLANG~!
CLANG~!
CLANG~!
The sound of hammers hitting metal rang throughout the Iron Keep, armoured constructs forging arms for the ever growing army of the Iron King. Monsters ranges from Lizardmen to Toadmen; along with many others yet identified creatures straight out of nightmares carried whatever materials needed to continue the endless work of forging new life taking constructs. To grow the ever growing army of the Iron Tide.
However, within a special chmaber, several knights forged an unique set of armour and weapons for a special warrior, to see if it can still be recreated and used against the enemies of the Iron Lord.
By the time the last knight finished forging the helmet, they placed the empty suit of large armour along with its weapons by its side on a large slab of Iron and stood back, waiting for their master to do the finishing touches.
Tendrils of shadowy fog emerged from the dark corners and entered the empty suit of silvery armour, once the last bit of the dark fog entered the armour everything was silent... Until a loud bang echoes through the chamber as several more start to come as strange dents starts to push outward of the torso of the armour. The dents seemingly has the shape of screaming faces as dark smoke escapes from every opening of the giant armour as it moves. First it moves its hands, then its arms, by then its entire body as the giant suit of cursed armour rises from the slab of iron...
And its single slit eye hole on its helmet glew with sinister red eye.
The Pursuer has been reborn.
Inside the woods outskirt of Majula...
I ran through the forest while keeping my guard up as I try to not only hide but find better advantage against my opponent.
I quickly flipped over some moss covered rocks and hid behind a large tree while readying my Daggers for surprise attack, thankfully borrowed weapons from my troops as my normal steel daggers were still ruined and are under repair by Andre. But let's focus on my current situation. I calmed my breath as I peek behind the tree to see if that bastard is still chasing me, but so far I see nothing. Not to mention I don't hear anything other than the wind sweeping past the forest and no animals or birds in the vicinity.
I suddenly tensed as I could feel Danger coming as I jumped up just in time before a sword suddenly emerge through the tree I hid behind and the owner janked it out as they swiped at the tree, cutting it in half but it allowed me to plant my feet while in the air and kick off from the tree as I manage to get a distance away from the man himself who is hunting me.
Jack of Blades.
The cloaked armoured being stood where the tree used to be before he leaped into action as he ran full speed at me while already swinging his bastardize of a katana/longsword at me.
I quickly evaded the attack as I swung my weapons at his side but he parries them with the armoured gauntlet of his as he swung once more, forcing me to evade his swings. Just as he seems to have me cornered to some trees, I willed my Nature magic to force the roots beneath me to erupt from the ground to impale Jack. The attack did leave him unprepared as he was sent flying in the air as the roots crashed into his armoured chest but he flipped in the air and lightning shot from his clawed hand at me, forcing me to fire shadowbolt at it to cancel the attack in mid air, resulting in an explosion that kicked up dust and smoke in the air.
Using this chance to hide and try flank the bastard I could see he used Force push to blow the smoke away as he strodes out trying to see where I went.
I manage to get around to his back and quietly sprung into action as I leaped toward him with my daggers raised and plung them into his armoured back.
...Or I would have if he suddenly didn't disappear in a light blue blur as I plung my weapons into the ground and felt the cold steel planted against my neck as Jack was now behind me, pointing his weapon at my neck and any small movement would result in me getting my neck sliced off.
We just stood where we were for a moment until he chuckles.
"I win...Again."
I groaned at my loss once more as Jack pulled the blade away as I sheated my own "Dammit, I thought I had you for a moment!" I exclaimed as I turn around to glare at the amused specter.
"Key is to be ready for anything and have options to utilize your abilities, you still have a long way to go before you could be a proper assassin."
In case somebody stumble upon here and thinks that i'm actually fighting for my life against my own Hero unit who looked to have gone rogue, then they would be mistaken because this was just another training session I agreed with Jack of blade to have a better chance to survive out here in Drangleic. Ever since I got both him and Andre, the former went right away to show me how to use my skills and abilities as an assassin and a mage. Sure Ithalaine certainly helped but he was more designed to be a starting trainer tutorial guy to help me out at first before he stopped being useful.
Granted I'm unfortunately keeping him around in case I need to... Help, other people from Remnant to be a better fighter.
But either way, it's been five days since I summoned the two and conquered the Gold mine, things finally start to get better.
While I sent Andre to start right away to smelt down the titanite equipment that we found so that not only would my daggers be repaired with the stuff but that my troops will be equiped with better weaponry and gear... Or what passes off as gear due to the amazonian and tribal looks. Jack helped me out these past days to not only level up more but to be better at using both my daggers but the two handed sword along with a bow so that I have range of options to use against the Lizardmen.

Yeah needless to say, Jack of blade as my teacher is a HELL OF A LOT BETTER than having Ithalaine as my frickin pervy instructor! At very least he doesn't try to invade your personal space every five seconds!
Shaking my head be both decided to head back to town, seeing as this morning training session is over, because I need to continue expanding our defenses against the army of the Lizardmen seeing as we now have a source of income and I need to prepare to decide if we should invade the hollow infested town or try at infiltrating the walls and kill the shaman to shut the debuff runes down.
Speaking of my town, thanks to the gold we now are getting I further expanded the town along with a proper walls to defend ourself from any outside attacks along with summoning more troops and civilians, the former with defenses and putting the hurt on the tribal lizard fucks and the latter to help grow our food, clothes and supplies we're gonna need. Not only that but I also built more Ancient Protectors around the gold mine and the cavern entrance leading through the tunnels and up to Majula, along with more walls and towers for better advantage points and holy shit! The tribal monsters barely even can get any closer to neither of the two places now as my long range units like the Archers, Axe throwers and Glaive throwers rain death upon those bastards before they can even get close to the first barricades.
While it certainly solved one of my problems of how to keep those bastards off my lawn, it still doesn't help me on HOW to get past the walls and the runes without being completely fucked by them.
Believe me, I tried to send in few archers to at least scout out a bit more what we're dealing with but my squad was forced to come back as not only were they so severely weakened but their equipment were degraded as well to the point rusting away seemingly just by standing near the runes.
So it has come to a point that I gave Jack the job on HOW to get us past the runes without alerting the Lizardmen or having our stuff rusting away.
Speaking of that.
"Any progress on how to get past the runes radius?" I asked Jack as we walked calmly back to Majula through the woods.
"Only a little" Jack admitted "So far I can have Andre forge an equipment that you and few others to be able to see the range of where the runes reaches, but until we get them we can't run in blindly until we have some ideas where and how far the runes reaches outward before sneaking past them and eliminate the shamans that are powering them."
I hum in thought as we continue to walk, thinking for a bit how to get past them but so far got nothing, guess we go by his idea of using a special gear to be able to see where the runes affects certain radius.
I'm so glad that I got Jack, as a Hero Unit I mean, because from what I was told and gathered by the system and Sarlina; Hero units can independet make their own choices and strategize without me being there because I noticed that Mydriel and Tervalian seemingly followed my orders to a T, but they didn't make any other plans or orders for the troops because they're simply just higher ranked grunt soldiers and not like Hero units who are trained to not only lead but also have their own leveling system as well.
Yeah, turns out it works seemingly similar like the Warcraft 3 leveling system as Jack of Blades starts out at level 1 and currently still is but he's near the experience bar to level up soon, but holy shit is he a whole different type of level in skills and powers because I have YET to beat his ass and he's only a measly level 1 while i'm a level 15... talk about destroying my pride and ego.
And as for his spells he starts out with Lightning, force push and Assassin rush... Yeah a little bit different there but apparently instead of having like four skills slots with each heroes he and every other heroes unit I summon have different range of skills and spells they can have, provided they choose carefully what they want because I can't choose WHAT they can have. Yeah I can't choose what sort of skill or spell they get as the system pretty much told me it would be cheating in some way... Pretty sure having the Gamer power AND the ability to have troops and a base is cheating but whatever.
But either way, I manage to secure my home base along with my two forward bases, manage to summon more troops of Night elves, Trolls and Nekomatas...Oh yeah, turns out I can actually summon my own kind as units or civilians!
Yeah turns out there was a requirement in order to unlock them and finishing the quest to conquer the gold mine was one of them and now allows me to summon two tailed cat people.
Now what exactly would summoning fellow Nekomatas bring to the table anyone might ask? well quite simple! They're both spellcasters and assassins! That's right, I have now more proper stealth units that can not only become assassins but also dark mages and necromancers, meaning my mission to infiltrate the walls would be much more smoother now that I don't have to worry about going in this mission to kill the shamans by myself.
There are two types of Nekomata units I can summon, one is called Wraith bringers and the other Stalkers. Wraith bringers are bit interesting as they can not only serves as dps units by casting offensive spells at the enemies but they can change their loadout by going support through casting debuff spells and reanimate the dead to fight for them. Speaking of which, I should probably ask one of them to teach me how to cast more dark spells or a little bit of necromancy seeing as I'm still stuck with Wrath and Shadowbolt. As for the Stalkers they're pretty much stealthy assassins with low hp in department.
Kinda like Dark templars in Starcraft...
Anyway, Jack and me finally emerge from the woods and out to the open plain that over looks Majula and I can see much more impromenet with the town.
Gone was the decrepit walls and now much more sturdier white and purple walls, there are more buildings to house both civilians and troops along with a lot more Ancient protectors guarding the place. But most of all the new building to showcase where I can summon my fellow Nekomatas and it happens to look like a mixed Night elf and japanese building with a tori gate on front and some spooky halloween like props like tombstones and dead trees around it.
Yeah it sorta clash with the Nature theme but according the system this actually fits the whole genre...Somehow.
Either way it doesn't matter as I have some business to attend to as we near the gates with two guards waving at us; a Night elf male and a female Wraith bringer.
The Night elf is another Archer with the gears to showcase he is one, but the female cat girl is different to her fellow guard. Garbed in japanese style kimono dark purple robes with long sleeves, white stockings and wooden sandals, her weapon is a staff that she's holding in one hand and she has flawless pale skin with brown shoulder length hair and red eyes.
Not to mention she was really stacked as hell, curvy too. I think she's like around G cup... Now that i'm thinking about it many of the female Nekomatas are like around from between F cup to fucking M cup!
...I'm glad that i'm not the only busty cat girl around here.
"Welcome back m'lady!" The Wraith bringer bows along with the archer as well "I hope your training with Lord Blades went smoothly?"
"It did. still getting my ass kicked though..." I mutter at the last part, glaring at Jack who chuckles.
"Well we're glad you're back, Andre wished to see you and said something about 'it's done' whatever that means" the Night elf ranger said.
I perked up at this, smiling as I realized my custom made outfit is finished along with my weapons, I thanked the two and entered the town. Before it looked rather bleak and somewhat mismatch with some of the buildings but after getting that gold mine and proper resources it turned from a small village to a prosperous town above the ocean cliff.
Everywhere I see many of my citizen going on their business happy and working together, I can even see couple of Night elf and troll childrens running around and playing... Which I kind of stopped in my tracks as I look in confusion as I watch a nigt elf girl playing tag with a troll kid.
When the hell did I summon kids to my base? I don't remember summoning any kids from the Tree of life!
"I'll take my leave Lady Taesi" I snapped out of my trance as I glance over to Jack "I'll be overseeing the two bases and help Tervalian and Mydriel with the defenses and scouting out more of the lands, if we're going to win against the Tribal creaturers and make this land our home."
"You do that, thanks again for the training Jack." I said.
Jack bows and leaves for the Rampart leading to the caverns, taking the shortcut as the roads leading to the forest of the fallen giants is still in shitty condition.
"Welp, time to visit the old man" I mutter and left for the HQ. Once I reach the building and made sure to keep an eye out in case a certain Night elf is around but found no trace of him I calmly walked inside and head right toward where the smithy is located. When i reach the smithing room I could hear Andre hammering away something and noted the heat was much more hotter than it was outside.
Going inside I could see Andre of Astora has been busy these past few days as I spot many weapons and armour infused with titanite ore hanging by the walls or just laid against them on the floor. Glancing to the side I could see the man himself working on a sword as he hammers away but stops as he noticed that I'm in the room.
"Well abou' time ye got here lass!" he beamed.
"Sorry, was busy training" I grin, placing my hands on my hips.
"I'll bet, now I manage to fix yer daggers and they should hold out far more better than they did in the past, not to mention they pack more damage as well~"
Andre went over to some boxes on the tables in the corner, pulls out my repaired daggers and wow, not only do they look new but the colors on the handguards is now black instead of dull blue/purple and the blades themself are darker grey, to showcase they been infused with Titanite ore.
Grabbing hold of them I inspected them, took few experimental swings and twirling them and nodded happily as not only are they lighter but they FEEL like they pack a punch, more than what they used to in the past.
"Glad to see yer happy with em!" Andre exclaimed, grinning before turning around to pick something else out of the box "As for yer armour, used them scales from the Fire salamanders ye gave me and it was quite a challenge with the tools I had at the moment, it should give ye a lot more protection against fire and flames, along with more armour...Well at least the parts that covers yer skin." What he took out are folded scaled clothes that are actually giving off heat and glowing cracks of orange flame, I grin as I happily accepted them and went right to the menu to equip them, changing from my first [Assassin Outfit] to [Fiery Scaled Outfit].
Gone was that skimpy leotard outfit and what replaces it was perhaps even more of a skimpier outfit that the first ever was.
On both my arms and legs was the armoured black scales of the fire salamanders with the leggings reaching up middle of my thighs, the clawed finger guards was the same except perhaps even sharper and more deadly to snap or claw at living beings as they would actually deal fire damage. on my head was a forehead piece with curved horns on the side and jagged shoulderpads on my shoulders. As for the rest, on my back was some sort of scaled back with spine spikes that went down to where my two tails are located, with the scales running from the sides of my chest and goes up to my boobs and simply covering my private parts, hell the scales doesn't even cover my whole breasts, just a thin arrow shaped scales covering my nips, along with black panties and that's it.
And yes. I was the one who asked Andre to make me this armour's appearance in the first place.
The reason for that is because when I hit level 15, I got a notification that another feature has been unlocked and that is Fable's appearance meter that not only rewards reputation but also quest rewards depending on how I actually look like!
There are three different type of bonus reward for completing quests and they go like this:
[Light appearance] Light appearance is basically me wearing basic looking armour or something decent, or practically looking like a paladin and have this savior look to it, meaning that I would get far higher Reputation from people by +75% but I would actually get a penalty of my Reward at -50%.
[Dark appearance] Dark appearance, well it's pretty much would mean wearing dark, evil looking armour and weapons and get +75% more reward bonus but -50% reputation penalty, guess common folks are a bit too scared of badasses trying to keep their asses safe from evil monsters.
And lastly [Sexiness Appearence] and it pretty much explains by itself with a title like that, except the difference is that I don't get any sort of penalties and both reward and reputation I only get like +50% from both of them.
Now I can safely say I pretty much can see WHERE exactly the damn system is going for and it follows the damn same trope of anime logic; Less clothes means more powerful you get. Normally I would be against doing this sort of crap to myself with whatever the hell kind of options the damn system is giving me but thanks to something else that I found out that gives me with a lot of glee that I honestly can't wait to see the reaction of certain people.
[Transmogification]
Eyupp~
Turns out I can summon someone with the ability to transmog my appearance and make it seems like i'm wearing a skimpy low level outfit but in reality I AM wearing high leveled gear!
Man I can't honestly wait to see Cinder's reaction as her blades doesn't even do a damn thing to what she believes exposed skin~!
Either way, looking over the stats I nod happily that at very least I have something better than my old outfit.
[Fiery Scaled Outfit]
Defense: 27+
Magic Defense: 8+
Fire defense: 40+
Frost weakness: 40-
Aside from the frost weakness, the added defense bonuses is pretty much alright with me~
Besides, I pretty much accepted that i'm probably going to be wearing some very weird stuff and during these past few days of contemplating of my existence as a cat women; it's not so bad being a youkai seeing as I can actually get away with this sort of thing as I'm no longer tied down by human limitations anymore.
"Thanks a lot old man! This should be helpful with the damn reward quests!" I exclaimed, flexing my armoured fingers as I can feel the outfit fit like a glove.
"Happy to help, just remember that when getting a summoning crystal, ask for a Transmog seller. Looking fancy in that outfit may sound good for ya but it's better you have some proper armour!"
"Will do," I said before turning serious "Anyway, how does our current equipment with the troops looks like?" I asked.
The reason for that is because we have limited amount of Titanite ore from the abandoned gears we found in the mines, meaning not everyone is going to be equiped with Titanite gear. Andre frowned and looked down, seemingly counting in his head before he responds "I would say two worth of squads of Archers, Axe throwers and Stalkers, other than that, it's not enough to equip the whole army. We need to find where we can mine Titanite ore as I believe we're not likely gonna find them from Titanite lizards roaming around considering no one has encountered one yet... So possibility is that they may not exist in this world."
"I see..."
I mutter quietly to myself, so only two squad worth of soldiers would be getting Titanite gear... That's not good.
Sure that means I can make special forces or something but that still leaves me disadvantage with only few soldiers having better equipment than what they currently have. Using the current available upgrades from the Hunter's hall doesn't exactly cover much than what simple Titanite weapons or armour can give. Which means I have to find out where and how did the Drangleicians find Titanite ore from and how they acquired it.
Thanking Andre once more I left the smithy and headed straight for the upper floor to my room, decided to take it easy for few hours until something else sprung up for me to deal with. So far the Lizardmen seems to going defensive mode and sends few squads of their troops against my forward bases but that's pretty much what they only done these past five days after the initial assault. What exactly is their leader doing?
Sigh
Either way, I'll find out one way or another. I need to relax so that I can deal with any other tasks that might appear.
Entering my room I went over to the balcony first to get a view of my home base, smiling as I lean against the railing as I watch my people going about their business. I even spot what appears to be two night elf couples holding hands and walking over to their house and entered it. And suddenly not long after they entered several bright disco light appeared out of the doorway and windows and there was this weird funky disco music that played for a brief moment and suddenly it stopped. few seconds later the same couple walked out happy while holding the hands of a Night elf kid, laughing and chatting happily as they left.
As for me, I-I'm pretty sure my brain just suddenly blue screen and there was this sound of old windows loading sound when connecting to the internet just erupted in my ears while my mind is trying to comprehend what the actual fuck I just witnessed while my brain is trying to reboot from the sheer randomness I just saw with my own two eyes.
"Lady Taesi, I've been informed by Jack of Blades his scout forces has manage to find additional information against our enemies." Sarlina suddenly began talking in my head while I still stood there in utter confusion and what the fuck state.
"O-oh right, thanks Salrina I'll contact him right away!"
"...Is everything alright?"
"Oh nothing, just saw something weird... Not important so thanks!" I quickly said, not wanting to understand what the actual hell that was about.
"Jack, got something for me?" I asked out loud as I left the balcony and inside to my room.
"Yes, our scouts manage to find a passage that leads much closer to the walls of our enemies, but while it lacks many runes it has some dangerous beasts that lurks there... Along with some additional guards of Lizardmen and Toadmen along with a humanoid feline creature of sort."
"A feline creature?" I asked.
"Yes. It appears to be another creation of the Iron king as it seems to be leading the creatures, so we should be cautious when dealing with this unknown." Jack warned.
"Right, gotcha. Anything else?"
"Aside from that, the Hollow infested town seems to have tighten their security a lot more, who or whatever it is that is leading them knows of us and seems to be wary... Perhaps it can be reasoned with seeing as they haven't attacked us yet."
"Could be worth a shot" I muttered "Thanks for the info, once we have more significant amount of troops, information and better gears, we WILL take the fight against those bastards. Keep an eye on our enemy and the hollow infested town Jack, will be there at the mines within an hour."
"As you wish."
I sighed as the idea of relaxing went right out of the window and immediately went our of my room and down stairs to the main lobby... Only to be greeted with Sarlina and Ithalaine talking in the main lobby.
"Are you sure what you saw?" Sarlina asked, brow furrowed.
"Aaaaauuuh~! of course weary Advisor~!" Goddammit "My Spirit owl saw those ships trying to get into Drangleic but keep getting pushed away~!" wait what?
"And what ships are you talking about?" I asked, surprising Sarlina who jumped a little as she turn to my direction with a surprise look on her face "M'lady! Wasn't expacting you to come down here so soon!" She said. I shrugged and walked over to to them as I focus on the sexually frustrated night elf "So what is this about some ships you saw Ithalaine?" I asked.
"Oooh~! My weary cat Queen, I brings news of the outside forces are trying to get inside our new lands, uninvited I might add~"
"And what did the ships looks like?" I asked, dreading as my theory of who it is might be a possibility.
"Why it looks like the flying ships belongs to Atlas of course! Ooooh~"...Well shit.
Guess it was matter of time before they manage to find where Drangleic is located, but it appears the barrier is keeping them away from here... Hmm, this actually gives me an idea and a worthy prank to certain wizard~
I look at Sarlina with a smirk on my face and ask.
"Say Sarlina, do we have some spare empty bottle and paper? Oh and also help me out writting it down in Drangleic language and dialect~"
Beacon Academy
Ozpin knew that sooner or later something would happen once the discovery of possibility of Drangleic's existence would come up, he honestly expect it to take far, far longer due to the strange and mystical powers that comes from such a land. As there are so much he himself knows very little of and the only one who ever been in there was Salem and she certainly won't tell him anything should they ever meet again.
He honestly wasn't expecting to hear from James that they found something drifting in the ocean, away from the very direction they been trying for over a week to get inside and have personally told him he was coming with the object in question so that the two of them can decipher what it is.
So naturally Ozpin called upon his two trusted allies, Glynda Goodwitch and Qrow Brawnen.
The two knows of his secrets and knows all about Salem, so when they were told by Ozpin of the possibility of Drangleic being actually real the two were skeptical nor liked the possibility of its existence. Glynda was skeptical as there has been no mention of such fantasized country or even proven to even exist but the fact Ozpin confirm that it does gives her a pause at what to believe. Qrow on the other hand did not like the possibility as from what Ozpin said there is a chance all those horrible creaturers of myth might still be roaming around and the last thing they need on top of the Grimm and Salem herself is bunch of monsters that they have no idea what they're capable off or their weaknesses running around.
Either way, they trust Ozpin enough to go along with whatever plans he has in order to keep Remnant safe from Salem.
Then again they never really got any proper explanation of Hazel's resignation from the Brotherhood either, so they are a bit hesitant to blindly follow him.
"Jimmy sure takes his sweet time to get here..." Qrow mutters bitterly, leaning against the wall while eyeing the elevator.
"The Atlesian Council is watching his every move now that the knowledge of a hidden continent is now exposed to them, so you can't fault James for that Qrow." Ozpin said, sipping his trademark coffee mug that he loves to drink from.
"Still... Are you sure Drangleic even Exist Ozpin?" Glynda asked.
"It definitely did... But now I'm unsure since it's been years, anything could have happened to it." The ever cryptic Headmaster answered.
Before anymore words can be traded, the Elevator dinged and opens up. Out walked James Ironwood, Atlas General of the Atlesian army walked inside the office with confident and purpose while holding the very object that brought him to seek Ozpin for guidance. "Glad you could make it James" Ozpin greeted, nodding to his old friend with a gentle smile which the General returned thought a bit tired one "It certainly has, over a week of trying to peer through the forcefield and having the council breathing down my neck certainly makes me glad to be given some form of break." He said as he places the object on the office table.
"Huh, those paperpushers really interesting on finding out what's behind it, aren't they?" Qrow stated, taking a sip from his bottle.
"They have reasons to worry, they believe the answers to be rid of the Grimm might lie beyond the barrier... Truth be told, if what Ozpin told me of the monsters of the ancient past are like, it would be far better to just leave the barrier alone and never disturb it."
"Unfortunately, greed and curiousity will likely spell doom for us all if we aren't careful with this" Ozpin said, understanding what Ironwoods is getting at.
"Indeed. But either way, This is what my soldiers found drifting in the ocean." Presenting the object that brought him here in Vale, shows a thick glass waterbottle with a rolled up letter "Before you even ask, yes. I had my men scan both the age and the direction of where the bottle came from... It came from beyond the Forcefield and this glass bottle was made few days ago."
Ozpin, Glynda and Qrow eyed widen at the discovery. The idea that this seemingly letter in a bottle not only came from what they may believe to be Drangleic but the fact it was made not too long ago speaks only one thing...
The people of Drangleic are still around.
"Have you read the letter?" Ozpin asked seriously, if this is what he think it is then there is a possibility that the people of Drangleic are not only still around but they KNOW of their existence!
"Yes but neither me or any specialist translator can figure out the language, my hope is that you understand what it says." Ironwood said, opening the bottle and carefully pulls the letter out and presents it to Ozpin. Ozpin looks at the letter as his heart beats hard, he can feel cold sweat running down from his back and forehead as the cold feeling of the very people who hated the brother gods and his people are still around is simple enough to terrify him.
And yet it brough up hope...
Hope that they may ACTUALLY have the means to finally defeat Salem!
He rolls up the letter and immediately recognize the letters and language to be the standard Drangleician common, thanking the heavens that he bothered to actually learn the language when wanting to explore the continent but never got the chance to do so due to that damned illness, he slowly and carefully reads over what is written...And instantly deadpanned at what he just read.
Seeing his expression Glynda ask "What is it? what does it say?" Qrow and Ironwood watch with anticipation and worry, was it bad? was it a threat? what could it be that causes Ozpin to look like he seems to be completely fucking done with the world?!
Finally he translate what it is written.
"Roses are red, Violets are blue, I like Penis and so do you."
Pure silence in the room as the three just stood there gaping at what they just heard, until Glynda breaks the silence and says.
"What the fu-"

Heyo!
Back again with another chapter of Umbreal Infernias and did this all on my dad's laptop, because i'm currently away on a near two week vacation trip and decided to borrow it and write things down out of boredom when I don't feel like playing on my Nintendo Switch or 3ds.
Anyway before anyone ask "Where is the Lopunny girl story?" I haven't gotten around to work on it due to back related problems that I had no other choice but to endure due to swedish medical help is practically useless. Like fucking hell I actually got a lot more help in Portugal than I would have gotten in sweden and possibility to cost three times than what I paid that awesome doctor for!
But now that my back problem is fixed and currently healing, I can go and start working on it now since I won't be back home till 8th of August... Which happens to be my last day of vacation before going back to work the next day and it happens to be an evening shift...Yay... Sobs
Anyway... Just curious about something, when we get to the part of Taesi getting another Hero unit to summon, what sort of character would you suggest she summon? It could be Cloud strife, Ahri from League of legend, hell it could be anything because right now I'm still debating who else I can add as a video character hero unit for our MC to summon and have aid with!
Well either way, I hope you liked this chapter and hopefully I can get around start working on the Lopunny protoss story in Mass effect!
