Mortal's Terrors

 

 

 

"...many thanks, to Mr Beishang, for his time. For this future of the Flicks, I don't think it can be in any more greater hands than the Peaceful Rain Corporation's." The young man, Flick Ternura, said in a tired and overtaken voice. It was as if the last 20 short minutes were by far the most intense yet calm and not anxious yet world shaking for him and his entire Flick Clan altogether.

“Mhm, bu-bye.” Yun Beishang said, his demeanor way too calm and casual to be as tired as Flick Ternura, while Flick Mere was waving at him as if he was a long lost childhood friend and Flick Boton had his eyes closed, appeared calm and gave off a sensation of letting it all in the hands and brains of the youngest capable generation available.

After a long—in Yun Beishang’s terms—chat, both parties came to know a bit of the other; over the past decades, it is true that the Flick Clan was just one of the many horrors that fully plagued the inhabited Regions of New Earth by the human civilization. Even to the point of an unbelievable, shocking degree, it was like the sweet little girl of 7 years turned into a free whore at 14.

But even then, the current, or rather; the previous ‘Founding Flick Clan’ over the past decade had already begun redeeming itself. Though the changes weren’t that obvious and parties within the same were still longing for the previous ‘profit’ acquirable, Yun Beishang’s massacre the other day actually… soothed the way for Flick Ternura to get rid of any tumor already there. As he would still have to rely on himself and on his trusted people to get rid of the growing ones and the small ones, before they become even bigger, stronger… and convincing; once again.

BEEP!

MMG-vrrrr~.

“Hm?” As Yun Beishang was placing his back fully backwards against the cushion, and as he pressed a button from under the sofa that alerted the maid outside to come in and start serving her Master, his Insoma began ringing as an ‘alerting’ notification appeared on the tiny spot on the screen which was the only one illuminated from the Insoma’s screen.

Tapping on it, above itself more specifically as merely making contact with the real and actual semi-holographic images were more than enough to interact with an Insoma. Yun Beishang saw that it was a message coming from one of the Maidens at Main Kingdom’s Wonder Region, at the ready for the utilization of the big weapons.

It had a few drawn images and a note that said that there will be a clear image of it once a Journeyer got a hold of the monster. In the message, a tall and gruesome, disgusting and retching looking insect with the legs and arms of a human were shown, and all that it held was either a scythe, a long scepter or a needle-like weapon that was as tall as ‘it’ but as thin as a human’s nail.

“!!” Without a doubt, Yun Beishang’s eyes trembled, and good; for a while as he was checking and rechecking over and over again to make sure that he wasn’t mistaken. Then, he opened his mouth, slightly leaving it agape while his thoughts began appearing nonstop as well. ‘Yep, indeed… it is one of those things…’

Looking at the shell-like stomach that looked more like a coffin in the designs that the Maiden gave to him, Yun Beishang couldn’t be any more sure of it as he began reading the message accompanying the images and note from below them. Reading through it, Yun Beishang then understood that there were BOSSes of this kind ranging from Lord grade all the way over to the Heavenly grade.

It said many things about how only about 3 of them were found while his troops were in the moving, galloping extremely fast towards another objective, after having conquered a settlement or while changing routes since the other fellow Order’s soldiers were closer and available to the next settlement and taking a tour towards another direction.

After finished reading the message, Yun Beishang sent his eyes to look upturned and rotated his neck a little without making any bony sounds, by the time he completed this motion as he breathed in with his nostrils and sat back up normally again; the door to his booth opened as he began to write on his Insoma some tips and warnings that only he could know at the moment.

Fu-tump!

“Master, d-oh! Let me help you with that neck, Master, go ahead and keep working, this maid of yours will take care of you.” Softly and lovingly said the maid who was called in, as she immediately dropped any etiquette—that was not necessary at all even then—and coyly rushed to Yun Beishang’s back as he was slightly bending his back while working on his Insoma.

“Mm, ahh… mm, mhm, good~.” Yun Beishang went from cringing on his seat to relaxing once again with his back against the sofa and cushion, his neck and skin feeling great as the maid made wonders of her own. He obviously would never feel even the slightest bit on guard whenever a maid came to his back, not only did he trained themselves well—or Natalia did along with Itnia—, but they could never harm him from the bottom of their whole selves.

Meanwhile, his hands never stopped working on his Insoma as the maid’s hands would constantly go down to his chest and massage him however she pleased, groping and exhaling hot breaths of air from time to time. Yun Beishang wrote things and sent them to the Maidens stationed nearby the Precious Chrysoberyl Sub-Division, at the outskirts.

Things like, the black, lava-like but disgusting smelling and looking magic or even energy, and the incredible set of basic attacks that it had and from which a fast attacker should be placed to ‘tank’ the BOSSes and not an offtank, as the latter would be definitely deleted in just a matter of seconds if not of a couple of attacks and that was it for the fellow Inhabitant and his mount even.

As for the Inhabitants of The Order, all soldiers, the weakest of them all, had to be LV140 for them to be allowed any kind of passing over the ‘being a recruit in training’ period to an actual soldier of the army of The Order. Beyond that, each soldier would get an Abysmal Creature Mount fellow depending on their class, whether that be melee, ranged or magical type of classes.

Their sizes vary, indeed, but for now, the ranged and magical type of classes had Abysmal Mounts that had the same height and length of their bodies, going for a total of 2 meters in length and 1.5 meters tall. Their grade was of the Heavenly grade while only those of the Inhabitant sections could have them, as Abysmal Creatures could grow their own grade up to the Mythical grade without making anything to them in special, like feeding them extremely an unique and powerful diet or granting them ‘blessings’ like items and skills or talents from one way or another.

For both of the magical classes’ and ranged classes’ mounts, they were currently like this as the overall size and grades of the Abysmal Creature Mounts given to the soldiers of The Order could only achieve such a result for the time being, but that was always and still improving at all times since Abysmal Creatures were all such a foodie species.

Meanwhile, the melee type of classes that were given an Abysmal Creature Mount fellow were much longer and a bit more tall, with their length going for that of 3.5 meters long and 2 meters tall.

[Me Abysmal Matured Warrior]: Type: Monster Mount, Grade: Heavenly, Level: LV140+, HP: 3,400,000, MP: 1,000,000, Stamina: 10,000,000, Physical Power: 30,000, Magical Power: 0, Physical Defense: 38,000, Magical Defense: 28,000, Attack Speed: 190%, Movement Speed: 225%.

[R Abysmal Matured Warrior]: Type: Monster Mount, Grade: Heavenly, Level: LV140+, HP: 2,225,000, MP: 2,500,000, Stamina: 5,000,000, Physical Power: 10,000, Magical Power: 5,000, Physical Defense: 38,000, Magical Defense: 28,000, Attack Speed: 200%, Movement Speed: 200%.

[Ma Abysmal Matured Warrior]: Type: Monster Mount, Grade: Heavenly, Level: LV140+, HP: 2,000,000, MP: 10,000,000, Stamina: 2,500,000, Physical Power: 9,000, Magical Power: 36,000, Physical Defense: 38,000, Magical Defense: 28,000, Attack Speed: 150%, Movement Speed: 200%.

But then, there were the Scouts which had whoer just as large as the current ranged and magical type of classes’ Mounts but that were as tall as the melee type of class’s Mounts; going for 2 meters in length and 2 meters tall. They were naturally the fastest, as the melee ones only needed some good Movement Speed to charge and move around within the battlefield.

[S Abysmal Mature Warrior]: Type: Monster Mount, Grade: Heavenly, Level: LV140+, HP: 1,800,000, MP: 4,000,000, Stamina: 4,000,000, Physical Power: 15,000, Magical Power: 20,000, Physical Defense: 38,000, Magical Defense: 28,000, Attack Speed: 180%, Movement Speed: 275%.

Melee class’s Mounts had a bonus in HP Regeneration, defending against strong attacks, especially those of Pierce Attack, Critical Hits and both combined; even True Damage is slightly reduced overall by a certain %. They all have strong resistance to CC effects as well, and are naturally the best Mounts to charge within The Order, only second to the commanders’ Mounts.

Ranged and magical classes’ Mounts had MP and Stamina Regeneration with each being respective to their needs, ranged class’s Mounts could even attack from the distance with their rider’s Physical Power and even convert half of it in Magical Damage instead. Also mimicking whatever kind of attacks their spells, arrows or bullets and even explosives had; like effects or Elements.

On the other hand the magical class’s Mounts can make a tiny portion of their spells’ damage into True Damage, for about 5% of the Magical Damage or Elemental Damage inflicted, just like with the ranged classes’ Mounts.

As for the Scout, it had extreme Movement Speed, and though the Attacking Speed wasn’t much, it had skills that allowed it to become ‘synergized’ with its Movement Speed. They also have the strongest and most ridiculous running type of skills that even Yun Beishang himself has ever seen, on someone that isn’t him, that is.

Besides that, all Mounts are only an extra addition, their Movement Speed might be of 275%, for an example; but that is only by itself as it could reach further well beyond that with a rider. And once a rider got their own Abysmal Creature Mount, that Abysmal Creature will begin following, leveling up and growing along their rider.

Only those who made huge contributions to The Order could have enough Honorary points to grant them the availability to buy their Mounts or Pets items that would allow them to evolve to the Mythical grade, but such things weren’t even available as of yet since only—at least—Colonel military ranked soldiers could receive a Legendary grade Abysmal Creature Mount; while only Generals had a Mythical grade Abysmal Creature Mount.

This, of course, was already a huge expenditure for Yun Beishang’s resources, but they were extremely important nonetheless. After all, making a war against the world that wasn’t going to end in peace nor in a truce wasn’t something a small character could just get to become a god because plot or something, Yun Beishang had to give his best soldiers and commanders the best of the best!

And then, there were the Spirit Cats, which could transform into anything. While all the ‘normal’ soldiers had a full armor and weapon for themselves of the Luxurious grade, so did their Abysmal Creature Mount and Spirit Cat Pets. While Colonel military ranked soldiers or higher had Resplendent graded sets for themselves and their Mount and Pet; and Generals had Spiritual grade, which would be the same as with Field Marshals since they were only 1 grade in difference between one another.

Anyway, the Spirit Cat Pets could turn into basically anything, and like this, there were so many strategies already having been utterly implemented into the very connected souls of all the trio of rider, Mount and Pet. Which was only for their enemies to see not that far off in the future and even for against Main Kingdom’s dangers… such as those ‘things’ or ‘mere’ BOSSes.

Rising Essence, Main Kingdom’s Wonder Region’s Precious Chrysoberyl Sub-Division, at 11:50 pm.

 

At one of the 4 largest campsites that were surrounding, more specifically, the inner ring of the Precious Chrysoberyl Sub-Division as they were within the outer ring itself. Under an extremely large pergola whose purpose as of right now was to convey all soldiers with a commanding position in their own army unit to reunite at and to wait for their Army Colonel.

A young man was seated on one of the tables under the pergola whose sun shading was completely useless right now, his right knee high up as his inner ankle bone on top of his left thigh but close to his left knee, and with his upper left thigh he supported the end of a thin and not that wide at all blade, using a whetstone to do more caressing than sharpening or polishing.

Step, step, step, step step step step… tu-tu-tu-tu-tu-tu!

“Hgyah! Gotta tell you, Staff Sergeant, you’ve done nothing but to become a goddamn role model! How do you do it? You know, being you and so amazing? Oh right, you saw General Powlniu, right? How is it? Did her beauty make the barren ground of dirt give bloom to flowers and the whole darkest of nights to become even more wonderful, hm hmmm?”

Another young man of a similar age that looked to be about 28-30 years old came from behind the slightly younger young man and hugged the latter’s neck while closing in on his face to the latter’s left ear, also sitting to the left of him as he did. Lotto shook his head and, with just 1 second of consideration and deliberation, he said in a strangely loud voice, “Stop it, what are we gonna do if everyone becomes suspicious of our great nights for the last few days, ey?”

“... … … … … …” The ton of other officials with commanding positions that ranged from a Private First Class to even a Lieutenant Colonel, looked on with untold, opened eyes that were set fully on the 2 young men who were hugging each other ‘so tenderly’ which they didn’t manage to see before; which they did manage to see before.

“Oh, ahha-ehe-haha…” Laughing it off so obviously cringey, the slightly older young man responded to everyone with a ‘he’s kidding’ face, before burying his face from above Lotto’s left shoulder. “Are you crazy?! Fucker, I knew getting promoted would get high up into your system, you’ll se, fucktard!”

Lotto simply smiled even more as his fellow roommate from his times as a recruit of The Order and brushed it off while intending to continue ‘caressing’ the strange blade. The other young man merely sat in the opposite direction of him, crossed his arms and thought about how much pussy he would be deprived of from now on just because of rumors; and how to take advantage of it to get closer to them pussy, bweheheheheheheh~!

“Ahem,” at that moment, a young Blue Elf that wasn’t seen anywhere before suddenly appeared just 7 meters away from Lotto’s table, and as he made such a simple exclamation, thousands of people directly shut the hell up and looked at the source of the noise to make sure it wasn’t another prank. Instantly, everyone got up from their sets or their lazy stances and directly stood in attention.

Screech-BAM! STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP STEP…

“Commander is present!!” A shout came from a certain low ranked official commander as everyone else made their own salute towards the Commander, following up with a salute of their own in unison right after, not a single person faking it nor being slow or too fast at saluting the Blue Elf in the middle of the pergola. “Army Colonel!” - “Colonel!” - “Commander!”

“...” Not shouting back like a dumbfuck, nor saying just a few words, the Blue Elf Commander nodded to 3 sides from all around himself as the silence from before returned but without chatter and gossiping this time. He then opened his mouth and said with a briefing, informative tone, “As you all know, I am Army Colonel Pallenio, and have been assigned as your Commander for the continuation of this war.”

Pallenio’s tone wasn’t the slightest bit proud nor braggy, he continued as everyone kept their stance official and professional, lightly toning down the seriousness and sternness of the situation. “I know it was more of an unknown ‘surprise’ for all of the officials in here and in all the other campsites… in that case, thank you for your patience.”

“Now, I’ll allow you to know that these changes were made for the sake of improving each of you, for example… Should any of you turn out to be a great official commander, you would be staying in the Army Group that you were assigned to, while on the other hand; you will be jumping from Army Group to another until you either become good enough or contribute in merit to the war and not by pride or fame.”

“Now, I want everyone to move and begin to prepare all of your troops already! We are setting off in less than 7 minutes! I want to see all the dead bodies of those who actually dared to go against us no matter what; burning and their ashes going up in the air as a warning to the rest! In 6 minutes, people! If I don’t see you there, your military life is over!!”

Saying that, Pallenio departed with large and seemingly ‘furious’ stomps from where he was, just 7 meters away from Lotto. But at that moment, he stopped and turned around as if knowing where a certain person was, directly waving at him or her to come to him while everyone else around were already speeding away to inform their men and women.

Meanwhile, as Lotto was about to move the shit out of the pergola as well, Army Colonel Pallenio turned around just as Lotto was observing the Army Colonel for the last fraction of a second, stopping at once at the motion since someone like Army Colonel Pallenio wasn’t someone who needed to look for someone in a crowd; he and the other person were instantly ‘seen’ right away of course.

“Staff Sergeant Lotto, please come here, I have a last minute change to inform you with.” Said Pallenio, a brotherly, snarky smile forming at his handsome and honest Blue Elf face; the fucker.
