Chapter Fifty Five: Corruption
Outside of a nearby town, in the forest stood a building of a dark guild that originally planned to attack the town for supplies and hopefully slaves to sell on the Black Market. The dark guild had plenty of members to help overrun their enemies, around a hundred members alone including the dark guild master.
But inside the building, all of the dark guild stood in surprised and awe by the entities before them. In the back stood a rather large creature that looked pretty brutish, being muscular, tall, and having a broad build. It had a sharp tooth mouth, patchwork skin, feet that had two front claws and a rear claw, and white eyes with no pupils. A sickly green substance can be seen bleeding through its mouth and from its incisions in the torso and around its neck. Metal stitches are seen barely maintaining the skin. It was also hairless and had an eye patch over its left eye, where more of the green substance could be seen. It also wore armor and carried a massive sword in its right hand, while the left hand didn't look like a hand and looked more like some sort of massive black metallic ball with spikes on it. This was a Mo'arg, more specifically a Mo'arg Brute, a type of demon of the Burning Legion.
Standing front of it near the sides was two more animalistic kinds of creature. It looked like to be a wingless Fel Bat, but more green substance, possibly Fel Energy could be seen coming off from the spiked back as well as lines of Fel could be seen all over on the two creatures. On their head looks to be a blade that was attached from the top of the head to the near front of the head, as well as another small on attached to them on the bottom of their chins. Their teeth could be seen as there's no skin or gums to block them from being seen like a normal persons would. They also had long tails as well. These two hound-like creatures were known as Vilefiends. A type of demon infused with acidic blood done by a terrifying ritual.
And standing in the center with the Vilefiends by its side and with the Mo'arg Brute behind it, stood a male Eredar. He wore only shoulder pads and armored leggings with an armored piece around his head, though his whole head could still be seen. In his hand he wielded a large sword covered in Fel magic. His name was Osmoas.
And in front of him, was a cauldron filled with a weird sickly green substance, most likely the blood of a demon, to who the Eredar presented to the dark guild before them.
"I will say my offer again," Osmoas begun to speak once more to the rather terrified yet curious dark guild, "Join us… and you will know power beyond comprehension! None will be able to stand against you!" The Eredar shouted with a large grin on his face, "All you have to do is drink our gift to you." He tempted them.
Many of the dark mages looked at one another, as if they waited for someone else to go on ahead and try. It didn't take too long though before the dark guild master walked up to the Eredar and the cauldron.
"You… when you say power beyond our comprehension, is it actually true?" He questioned, although rather polity since the two Vilefiends next to the Eredar looked like they would pounce and eat him at any moment.
"Drink the gift and see for yourself the truth." Osmoas tempted him with a smirk, as he handed him a wooden cup, knowing full well what the dark guild's choice will be.
The dark guild master was hesitant for a moment, before the offer of power seemed to tempting to pass on. That and he didn't want to be a meal to the Vilefiends that were eyeing him. He grabbed the cup from the Eredar, and dipped it in the cauldron, filling it up with the Fel blood.
It didn't smell pleasant, but refused to back out now. And then without warning he quickly drank the whole cup of Fel blood.
His eyes widen in shock as he dropped the cup as pain filled his entire being. The rest of the dark guild was shocked to see their master acting like this. But that wasn't it.
His skinned turned gray as a more monstrous roar could be heard from the dark guild master as he felt his body painfully changing. His fingers became sharper and spikes could be seen emerging from his arms, legs, back, and face. His teeth also became sharper as dark green marks formed all over his body. And finally, his eyes became a crimson red as they glowed.
Everyone else was shocked by what they just witness, before they heard their boss beginning to laugh as the pain faded away.
"This power… I never felt more alive!" The dark guild master laughed as he turned his attention to the rest of this dark guild, "Come! Receive the gift like I have! With this power, none will stand against us! We will be invincible!" He roared with a crazed grin as he continued to laugh like a maniac.
Seeing the result and power from their boss, the fear went away and was replaced with excitement and lust for power. They all then grabbed their own cups before running to the cauldron to get their own fill of the demon blood inside. Like their boss, they all went through a similar transformation as they roared like monsters.
Osmoas simply chuckled as he saw them all acting like animals to gain power. This shall do nicely for his needs.
Using his free hand, he formed a green mist in his palm that showed the nearby town. The demon grinned as he saw a certain group of heroes just arriving in the town.
"Heh, heh, heh, heh… it looks like our targets have finally arrived," Osmoas stated before closing his hand, making the mist fade away. The Eredar then looked back at the dark guild before he spoke up, "Now, it's time to show this world what you can do!"
The dark guild roared in agreement, as a thirst for blood drove them to act this way. Osmoas simply laughed once more. E.N.D and his meddlesome brats won't get away this time.
'IN THE NEARBY TOWN'
"Finally! Another town!" Marcel shouted with relief as they entered the small town. The group had finally arrived in another place, hoping to get some food before they hit the road once again. Due to the town not being too big, there weren't that many people in the streets.
"I can't wait to eat something other than fish." Hara spoke up, getting a few of her siblings as well as their parents to agree.
"What's wrong with fish?" Happy questioned the future daughter of Natsu and Mirajane, not understanding the problem with only eating seafood.
"That's all we had while camping in that stupid forest!" Maria exclaimed, not understand how anyone could keep eating the same thing over and over again. Cheesecake was different though, for it was a food of the gods in her and Erza's eyes.
"Hey don't call the forest stupid!" Rose responded to her sister in an annoyed tone, "The forest provides life and beauty to this world-."
"Don't care, it's still stupid." Marcel interrupted his sister, which got her angry by her brother's words.
"No it's not!" Rose exclaimed back at her brother in an angry tone.
"Yes it is!" Marcel retorted, not backing down.
"No it's not!"
"Yes it is!"
"Well you're stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
"Both of you calm down!" Both Cosmos and Kamika raised their voices, not wanting to deal with them like this right now.
Luckily this seemed to do the trick as both of them ceased their arguing, not wanting to make their mothers mad. This pleased both the female Garou Knights, glad that they listened.
"Good, now apologize to Marcel Rose." Cosmos told her future daughter.
"You too Marcel." Kamika told her future son.
"But he/she started it!" Both of them exclaimed, pointing at each other in an accusable manner.
'This looks weird to watch.' Everyone else thought to themselves as they saw Cosmos and Kamika acting like parents to the two future kids of Natsu, Cosmos, and Kamika. To the future kids, it was weird to see their nearly adult siblings being treated as little children, while for the rest it was weird to see their friends acting like parents. While that was technically true, it didn't change the fact that they were around or close to the same age at the moment.
Eventually, both Rose and Marcel had no choice but to apologize to one another, though it was clear that neither of them liked to do it.
"Alright," Irene started to speak, getting everyone to look at the older red haired woman, "Now that's over with, let's see if we can find a place to eat." She suggested. After all, this was their main reason to find a town in the first place.
"Yeah!" Natsu agreed with her, "I feel like I could eat a horse!"
"Do horses taste good?" Layla wondered as her mouth began to wonder, much to some of the others shock.
"What?! Why would you want to eat a horse?!" Tiron exclaimed at his sister, horrified at the though of an innocent horse being eaten. He swore Layla would be willing to eat animal as long as it had a good amount of meat on them.
"Actually, I would like to try horse as well." Rebecca admitted. She bet horse meat would taste good if cooked properly.
"No!" Daron shouted, not liking how his sisters were acting, "Horses are not for eating! They're for horseback and companionship!" The future son of Natsu and Lisanna yelled at both Layla and Rebecca, "Just like you don't eat dogs or cats!" This horrified both Millianna and Tom, as well as the Exceeds.
"Why would anyone want to eat a cat?!" Tom shouted, feeling disgusted that they're may be people out there who would do such a thing to such adorable animals.
"People like that shouldn't be allowed to breath!" Millianna stated with a completely serious face. When it comes to cats, she will be the defender of all the cute kitties.
"Yeah!" Tom agreed with his mother.
"…I do wonder what horse meat would taste like." Garad jumped in to the discussion, thinking about what kind of beer would go good with horse meat.
"Stop it!" Ruby joined in the argument, "Horses are our friends, and they are not food!" The future daughter of Natsu and Meredy stated like it was a fact.
"…How did we get to this again?" Lucy questioned as everyone else sweat drop from the argument between some of the future siblings as well as Millianna.
"By Natsu making a metaphor about being able to eat a horse, that's how." Kinana answered the blonde, who nodded in understanding.
"Uh…," Asuka, who was next to Natsu started to speak up, "Would a horsy taste good with bread?" The little black haired girl couldn't help but wonder.
This got those who were arguing to look at Asuka, some in horror and some in happiness that she was on their side.
"Asuka no!" Tiron, Daron, Tom, Millianna, and ruby shouted in horror.
"Asuka yes!" Layla, Rebecca, and Garad shouted in joy.
Everyone else simply sweat dropped.
There you all go. From the looks of things expect something to go down next chapter. It won't be anything too major like in Era, but still.
See you all next time, whenever that will be.
