Yeah, so it has been a hot minute hasn't it. I have been super busy with college and have had barely any time to work on this.

I hope you enjoy this chapter!

Chapter 4

Caelid wasn't the most hospitable place for this rag tag group to be. But according to Malenia and Miquella, they would half to go there in order to obtain a shard of the Elden Ring. That shard belonged to General Radahn, The Star Scourge. To obtain all of the shards quickly, the group decided to split up. Serov, Malenia, and Miquella would head to Caelid. Asura and Ranni would travel to Stormveil Castle and obtain the shard Godrick the Grafted possessed. Glenn and Fia would go to Raya Lucaria, and try to talk some sense into Rennala. The Three teams set out on their journeys.

"Okay, this is just a dessert that's been exposed to a lot of radiation." Serov said half jokingly. "What is radiation?" Miquella asked curiously. "It's kinda like this scarlet rot stuff." He replied while he scratched his head. "So you've encountered diseases similar to the scarlet rot?" Malenia asked. "Well, kind off, there isn't a cure for radiation." Serov stated blankly. "Just like the rot." Miquella said. "Well there is a cure for the scarlet rot, we just haven't found it yet." Serov shot back. "I agree." Said Miquella.

"Sir Hunter, if I may ask, could you be so kind as to teach me the ways of the blade?" Miquella asked with excitement clearly written on his face. "Miquella…you're asking too much of him." Malenia said. "Sure, if that's what you want?" Serov answered. "Thank you Sir Hunter." Miquella said with a slight bow. "No problem, and could you please drop the 'Sir Hunter' thing, just call me Serov." He replied with a smile. "As thy wishest Sir Hunter." Miquella rebounded with a mischievous smile. "Ok, I'll admit, that was a good one." Serov said as he pointed at Miquella.

"My lord, what may thee be seeking to do with the shards of the Elden Ring?" The Blade of Miquella asked without any hesitation in her voice. "We are going to rebuild the Elden Ring." Serov replied. "That is impossible to do, Lord Serov." Miquella said, too astonished to believe what he had just stated. "Oh it's possible alright! Glenn says that using a tesseractic energy source might just wield successful results." Serov responded. "You put much trust in thy comrades my lord." Malenia said as she sharpened her blade. "I always trust them, I trust them with my life." Serov replied.

A boot stomped on through the swampy land. "How much farther till this Raya Lucaria?" Glenn asked as he trudged through the murky water. "Not much longer lord." Fia replied. "You know, I'm surprised you know so much about the Lands Between." Glenn said to Fia. "I am a Tarnished, I know of many things." Fia replied as she turned to face her companion. "Hm, well I hope this academy doesn't mind guests." Glenn said with a smirk.

Before Fia could respond, what appeared to be a rock started to move. "What? A giant lobster?" Glenn asked himself with a gleam in his eye. "I know what we're having for dinner!" Glenn yelled as he burned the lobster with a snap of his fingers. "Ah, freshly cooked lobster. What a wonderful smell." Glenn said as he picked up his prize and threw it through a gate. Fia looked at Glenn with a puzzled expression. "You truly are one of a kind." She whispered.

"Well, let's continue to head towards the magic academy!" Glenn shouted as he walked onward. The academy of Raya Lucaria was a sight to behold. Except for Glenn, who had traveled through countless worlds and seen countless things. Glenn whistled as he marched up to the gate of the academy. "The more I watch this man the more I want to feel his warm vigor." Fia thought. "What the hell is this?!" Glenn asked as he saw a magic seal covering the gate. "You have got to be kidding!" Glenn yelled as he observed it. "We have to find a key to this magic seal, I apologize Lord Glenn. "Don't be, I'm not mad because it's locked, I'm that it was locked with this pathetic seal." Glenn said as he looked around. "See this, this map leads to the key. Their security here sucks." Glenn said with a light chuckle. "Thou can break the seal?" Fia asked with surprise. "Not break, more like, unravel." Glenn replied. "Well, I guess I'll get started." As he said this, a blue light engulfed the Warlock's hands. "This should take a minute." He said.

"Hey, do you mind telling me who this Godrick the Grafted guy is?" Asura asked with a raised eyebrow. "Tis a vile man, if thy can call him a man still. A demigod tis he, one who grafts parts of bodies to his own. Foul Godrick claims himself to be the Lord of all that is Golden." Ranni's description sparked a flame of rage inside Asura. "Oh I'll be happy to rid this world of his existence." Asura responded. "If I may ask Sir Titan, why do thee have to hold so much anger inside thyself?" Ranni asked. "Well I am the god of wrath." Asura said. "I was surprised to hear that thy were a god, what does thee have against the outer gods?" Ranni asked. "They tamper with people's lives when no one asked them to." Asura responded with a growl. "I know what thy speaks of." Ranni said

Asura approached the Stormveil Castle. He passed the area where he had killed Margit the Fell Omen. When he entered the castle Ranni told him that they would have to take a certain path. However, Asura could care less about how he got there. So, as a result, several walls had holes in them. And Ranni found herself walking through a path that led straight to Godrick. "What the hell is he doing now?" Asura asked Ranni. She spied Godrick running his hand over a dragon's corpse. "It seems that foul Godrick plans to graft that corpse into his vile form." Ranni replied with a twitching brow. "Hey! Get your ass over and fight me Godrick!" Asura shouted as he popped his knuckles. Godrick slammed his hammer on the ground. Then he said, "I am the Lord of all that is Golden." The Grafted demigod said. "Grrr…!" Asura growled as four more arms appeared on his body. The god of anger jumped towards his adversary with his fist clenched.

The fist appeared to burn with rage as Asura approached his enemy. Godrick began to drag his hammer on the ground, preparing to attack with a heavy blow. Asura on the other hand knew this. But he made no action to evade the coming blow. Instead, Asura caught the hammer with one arm and put all his momentum into the other. When the punch connected, a shockwave emanated. Godrick was pushed back as Asura used all six of his arms to punch the demigod at unfathomable speeds. "You…aaaaa!" Godrick screamed as he cut off one of his many arms. Asura noticed he was going to graft the dragon into his body. He rushed toward the corpse and threw it into sub orbit. "What have you done!?" Godrick yelled. "Go see for yourself." Asura said as he uppercut the demigod also sending him into sub orbit. "May I ask what thou hath done to Godrick?" Ranni asked. Very surprised with the events that had just unfolded. "I punched him into space. He won't be bothering us anytime soon." Asura's response shocked Ranni further. "Thou strength is extraordinary Sir Titan." Ranni said as she began to feel an emotion once lost.

Asura picked up the shard of the Elden Ring. "This power feels…tainted, like plaque that has yet to be unsurfaced." Asura stated as he eyed the broken piece. Ranni was intrigued by Asura's words. "What doth he mean by that statement?" Ranni asked herself. "May I ask what hath happened to Godrick?" A voice asked. Aura instantly tensed up and balled his fists. "Who are you?" Asura asked sternly. "My name is Nepheli Loux, and would very much like to know who thou art as well." She replied. "I'm Ranni, this Asura the Titan." Ranni said with a motion of her hands. "The Titan!? As in the legendary Titan from the prophecy!?" Asura expected her shock. "Yes I am." Asura said. "I would like to know if you hold ill intent toward us?" Asura asked, still in a defensive position. "I do not." She quickly replied. "Fine, let's get back to the Brotherhood." With that said, Asura picked both Ranni and Nepheli up and jumped into the air.

"Ok what?" Serov asked as he observed the castle in front of him. "Redmane? That's the name?" He asked. "Yes my Lord." Malenia replied. "Huh, everything is a deep red. It's not a coincidence that it's called Redmane Castle." Serov said as he entered the stronghold. I hope they have directions to Radahn." Serov said with a whistle. Well whatever, Malenia find us some information." Serov ordered. "Yes, Sir Hunter." Malenia replied with a bow of her head. "I hope we still have time." Serov said as he looked toward the sky.
