cruelty and pride. They only knew the language of blood. And they tore down all their enemies. Everyone who stood before them became a lifeless corpse above or below the dirt.

giants. Dwarfs. demons. monsters. human beings .Trees. They crushed everything with their swords. Even if it is a child, a boy or an infant. Anything that wasn't human they ripped apart. Even their human enemies were not spared their tyranny.

 

They were an elite of knights. Clad in full suits of silver armor, which shone under the scorching sun,

And in their waists swords and axes, Some of them carried spears, wands, and bows.

An inscription on the chests of their shields, two crossed swords flanked by wings. They were the elite of the Holy Byron Empire.

 

The area they were walking in was barren, wrecked like rubble.

And This land was quiet calm. Only the sound of the wind can be heard, which sounds like wailing. 

This place was disturbing even to them, as no one entered this place, and he returned to tell his story. That's why they walked slowly, cautiously. Although most of them were afraid.

 

The captain of the cavalry, walking forward, said in his strong voice:

- ''Is this the great kingdom of Verna , about which we used to hear stories?

I can hardly believe what I see, what in the name of the sky god happened? Is this an illusion of some kind?"

The captain had a huge body like a bear. His body was not huge, of flabby fat, but rather muscular, polished, taut, like steel,

This body had been refined, through the hundreds or even thousands of ruthless battles he had fought with monsters. He is even said to have killed a dragon himself, with his only sword, with one blow. 

 He was a great hero in his country, famous among the surrounding kingdoms of the Dragon Slayer, in addition to his extreme cruelty to heretics( non-human beings . )

He had short black hair sticking out of his silver helmet, which covered the top and back of his head.

He had hard black eyes, which would make anyone shudder at her staring at him.

He was called segal Russo .

answered his deputy, who looked like a child beside him:

-"No, this is certainly not an illusion. We have gathered a lot of information, and old books. But, there is no exact description of what happened to the kingdom of Verna .. and we have even asked for information from the nearby kingdom of irem , but they tell us nothing."

The captain said, with a smile on his face:

"I am not happy to seek information from savages who mate with animals, good savages are dead savages."

His deputy replied with a bitter smile:

"No, they don't interbreed with animals.. Where did you get that ridiculous talk from? We have many of them as slaves, and certainly none of them are."

 

The commander replied, narrowing his eyes, as if his deputy was a transparent creature.

"Isn't that obvious by looking at them, they have ears, and the tails of animals. And even some of them have animal limbs, especially their filthy queen!"

 

These are vile creatures. disgusting. They should all be annihilated. No. They must be our slaves!

And they will be useful to the world by doing so. Instead of interbreeding with animals and desecrating the earth with their filthy offspring.” 

 

The deputy commander wanted to say: Their queen is beautiful, and you are the filth. However, he shook his head in agreement. However, the commander did not stop talking about them until he made the deputy commander feel weary.

 

 The deputy commander was not skilled in combat,

He never wanted to kill non-human beings whatsoever.

The Vice Commander had been hired, about six months ago, and made the deputy of this tyrannical monster, due to his ability to see illusions, without using magic. Which was considered a rare talent.

 Using magic to see illusions was completely different as it required very high magic, and only geniuses could reach this level of magic.

That is why he was placed in this high position, to be the eyes of the leader. was from

It was better to provide the commander with a magical tool that allowed seeing illusions, but that was expensive, and the deputy commander, much less expensive, and even if he was killed it wouldn't cost them anything.

 

 From the perspective of the individual, that was harsh, but from the perspective of the state and its rulers, no one is worth an iota of salt.

The deputy commander was a young man of twenty, with short black hair that touched his shoulders, and nice brown eyes. His name is Pence Meyer . He was a blacksmith before this work, which was forced upon him.

 

Interrupting the commander in an uncomfortable tone , Pence Meyer said :

"They are called the race of Teles ."

The commander chuckled, as if speaking of a few oranges:

-"Are you still bothered by the murder of your vile slave?...You shouldn't have taken off her chains then...However, I understand your annoyance, for she was beautiful, and no doubt had many uses." And the knights around him laughed.

 

 The leader continued:

-"Let's finish this job, and I will drown you with all kinds of slaves.. you love the race of Teles .. uh. They are beautiful though they are heretics ."

The commander burst out laughing until his shields hardened from the severity of his concussion.

 

The deputy commander blushed in exasperation. For a moment he wanted to stick his sword into his commander's throat, but he knew full well that he would be killed before he raised his sword. And he looked at the clear blue sky.

 

slaves.. It is true that I bought her and her daughter together.. But I did it so that they would not take her away from her little daughter.. I loved her.. I loved her as a human woman. And I wanted to take her as my wife.. She loved me very much.. We loved each other . He closed his eyes and a single tear fell from his eyes. 

Pence still remembers her death as he was returning to his house and found dozens of people smashing her head with Sticks, like she was a rat. All because she doesn't wear her iron collar. They believed that she was one of the heretics who had sneaked into the country secretly.

 

I've told her many times.. Put your iron collar around your neck when you go out of the house.. Poor thing, she must have forgotten where she lives. The slave collar is just an iron collar that decides life and death

. And he muttered:

-"Either you are strong, or you are crushed underfoot.. Words that describe the reality of the world. Whoever spoke these words must know everything." He laughed in pain, until his eyes shed tears.

murmured the commander:

-" What's with you?..".

- “Laugh with happiness! For very soon the kingdom of irem will be crushed , and the world will be cleansed of rotten heretics !” He wiped his tears with the back of his hand, and continued, to prevent the commander from speaking of the kingdom of irem:

 

- "They will be annihilated soon, no doubt. But this talk is not appropriate at this time, as we must gather information, and know the reason for the destruction of the kingdom of Verna and the disappearance of the people in it

."

The captain said worriedly:

-"Hmm, that's really strange and disturbing, this is the seventh city we pass through, and we don't see any trace of living things. Where have people gone? Creatures? Even if they were exposed to some kind of epidemic, or were killed, their bodies should remain. Well, two hundred years have passed And not a single corpse will remain.

But, there must be remnants of their bodies, their skeletons, where for God's sake did they go?!"

His deputy said, feeling a strange cold in his bones:

-"Maybe monsters or demons killed them and ate them all? Or maybe some satanic rituals were used?"

The commander's intestines shrank from those words.

 The world was filled with horrific beings. But an entire kingdom.. even dragons couldn't do such an act, maybe a city.. Entire cities have been burned down by dragons throughout the ages . He found himself crying out in anger at these horrific thoughts:

-"What is this absurdity you are talking about? There were millions of people.. millions. And you say that they ate the whole country! There are limits even for demons!..if there is a monster like that, there will be no one left on earth!"

 

 The captain looked really nervous as he started to feel a strange coldness. This month was the third month of the sun, when the heat was very severe at its height. And the commander looked at the scorching noon sun, as if making sure that the sun was still above his head

.

 It was his enchanted shield, banishing cold and heat waves generated by weather or magic.

He began to think that the magic on his shield had somehow faded, but if that was true, which of course is impossible, why not the heat from the sun. But the strange thing is that the cold comes from all directions at the same time.

 

 From afar, he saw a few trees moving away. Those trees looked like a huge pile of bones.

 They were pale white trees, lumbering to their roots. They were called Devil's Trees .

He knew that these trees live in the desolate forests, and never come out of them.

This was strange. Its golden fruits sold for enormous fortune, as well as its bark that exceeded the hardness of steel.   

 If he had time, he would have exterminated her. And it wasn't the right time for this.

 

The captain shouted loudly:

- "Stop it!"

The knights stopped, and watched their surroundings, feeling unreasonably low temperatures.

The deputy commander said in a worried voice:

"Is there something?"

 

Of course he knew there was something, but he said it to hide his fear by talking.

The commander replied:

"There is something strange, this cold is so unnatural, I feel it in my bones like daggers. It must be something...some magic ." 

"Maybe monsters or demons, Commander

."

-"I really don't know. If it is, it will only bring us death. Tell the squad to prepare for battle at once."

 

The commander raised his hands and found her sweating and trembling, and he was angered by the deputy's scream that sounded like a woman's wail.

-"death?!! ".

-"Don't scream like that, woman. We fought monsters and demons.. What's wrong with you?!".

The deputy commander replied, trying to calm himself:

"No, nothing, but, this place really worries me. Let's get out of here, and come back early in the morning. Sunset will come soon."   

 

-"The deputy commander... are you kidding me? It's noon. Looks like..." He wanted to say you look scared. But he didn't say it. Fear was contagious in these places. So he said, with blood beginning to boil:

"We'll go a little further, and then camp here tonight."

The deputy commander shouted in a voice that sounded like the sound of a choked chicken.

"Here, no, no, no, we must go back at once!"

 

The deputy commander trembled as something enormous appeared before him.

 That thing, the captain, seemed to burn with rage. Sparks were flying from his eyes, as if his deputy was a heretic . With a steel-armored fist, the commander delivered a violent punch to the head of the vice commander's horse.

 

The horse fell to the ground, like a giant sack of flour. The deputy commander fell on his face, broke his nose, and got up frightened by this brutality. He raised his eyes to the enormous man in front of him, threads of blood gushing out from his nose.

 

-"Would you give me something, woman?!! Did you forget yourself?!!..look at me..you are here to watch effeminate things like you..the shy ones who don't show themselves to tough men like us..that's just your job?!! Is this clear, woman?!!"

 

Pence Meyer shook his head, assuring that he understood, but the commander was not satisfied with that, and said:  

-" So, who are you ?!! ".

 

Pence Meyer said gloomily; Those usual words:

"Woman...androgynous, anything you want." The commander kept looking at him with disgust, for a moment he
