Rise Of A Fallen God 20 Dark Moon Fores

Giving orders to his fellow Cultist, James a man in black robes moves with his followers as they lead three to four hundred mortals through the forest, heading towards their headquarters deep in the forest that rest under a towering mountain. The kidnapped Villagers are mostly women, children and elderly along with youths around ages ten to fifteen, taken from their now eradicated village that is on the border of the forest which the Empires power is limited in influence. By taking advantage of the Beast who call the forest home the Cult has for the past five years been killing thousands of Villagers, leaving the blame for their crimes on the Beast who call the forest home.

In Dark Moon Forest various beast roam about that rival the humans in power both sides fighting a never ending war for territory, as the Empire expands the Beast become more and more vicious towards the nearby human villages. The giant Beast alone pose a threat to the entire Continent of Blood Sun, so the Humans remain untied in fighting them while some take this as an opportunity to make people disappear. The Monster Kings holding the most power each having large parts of the

ma.s.sive forest under their control along with all the Beast in the area, this is the reason the Cult chooses to make the forest there base.

....

"How well do you know the forest Elder Vincent? are you sure that a Monster King is helping these Cultist out?" Timothy following the Cultist alongside Vincent and Three Suns, the three look down at the hundreds of Villagers being marched to their deaths by fifty Refinement level Cultist.

"The Monster King they are working with is a ma.s.sive Blood Ape who rules the mountain region, we nearly killed him a few years back but the Cult interfered so we are certain of this alliance. We failed countless times to move into the mountain with all the Beast and Cultist working together causing us severe losses, the most costly being Elder Midnight Sun."

Three Suns spoke up having a conflicting smile on his face, while it was true he and his Empire tried to kill this murderous Monster King they have always suffered. With the help of another Earth expert and powerful backers this task was now simple, but what caused the former Emperor to have a bitter smile was that he was still able to retain almost all his former powers in the new found Dragon Empire.

"Dragon Emperor Dashnell has given this task to us we will not fail."

Three Suns left his four hundred thousand strong army on the border of the Dark Moon Forest, once given the signal is given they will move into the Forest to secure the Villagers that were captured. Three Suns was doing everything to provide positive merits on this mission to wipe out the Cult that has caused so many problems for the Empire, saving the Villagers provided him with extra vigor. As it would serve to boost his standing with the Dragon Emperor who treated his mortal citizens as the life blood of the Dragon Empire.

Following behind the group of Cultist they reach a towering cave entrance at the base of the mountain, with over a few thousand more captured Villagers making the total number over ten thousand. "So many have been gathered here what the h.e.l.l are they doing to so many fellow humans" Rage filled the eyes of Elder Vincent after losing Midnight Sun he focused all his time and effort into ridding the forest of Cultist, never did he imagine that they were the ones behind so many Villagers going missing.

Boom Boom shakes inside the mouth of the cave echoed out as a savage voice roared

Surrounding the Cave mouth is a ma.s.sive camp filled with thousands of Cultist walking around guarding the ten thousand Villagers.

"Bring me more human flesh I am tired of waiting on Elder Adam, if you want more power I need more flesh and blood bring those humans to me!" The savage voice making the Villagers cry in terror as they have already witnessed batches of hundreds enter an nothing but blood and the desperate cries of countless people within.

"Give the Signal for the Troops to move in now we must not allow any life to be lost while we are here, Vincent you will take care of the Cultist outside. Three Suns and I will go and fight that Earth level Monster King." Timothy said while taking out his sword that was forged by G.o.ddess Samantha, the blade gives off a powerful aura of elemental lighting. The silver blade has a coiling dragon imprint that travels along the entire blade to the hilt., both Three Suns and Vincent also received a Great sword of similar design but filled with boundless Solar energy.

Weapons in the Mortal Realm forged with the power of the elements are the favored weapons of the human Cultivators. Ranking the weapons in Tiers, from Mortal to Heaven Tier. As of now no one within Blood Sun is at the level of Smith Master were it becomes possible to make Heaven Tier elemental weapons. But now the three each has their own Heaven Tier weapon, a gift from G.o.ddess Samantha who has Mastered the technique behind the forging of elemental weapons up to Heaven Tier.

Vincent's hand shoot a beam into the sky as a bright sun s.h.i.+nes above the cave entrance. Then he drops down from the sky cleaving apart the numerous Cultist and Beast that were caught off guard by the sudden attack. Wading through the enemies he tightens his grip on his Great sword as flames melt and tear through enemy numbers, rage filling each of his wild swings cursing how he only now has the power able to save these few lives. Regretting the countless hundreds of thousands he failed to save during the five years the Cult remained active.

"Die for me! Burn away into ash for your sins!!" Elder Vincent moving about the camp like a streak of bright red light laying to waste the few thousand Refinement level Cultist and Beast that fill the camp.

"Fight him! He is only one Earth expert delay him until the Monster King comes use the Villagers as hostages he came to rescue them, he can't kill us if we use them as meat s.h.i.+elds!!"

"Fight!"

"Delay him for the Monster King!"

"Die along with these Mortals!!"

As the battle below begins Timothy and Tree Suns fly inside the Cave unseen to deal with the Earth expert Blood Ape. Knowing that Elder Vincent was causing the enemy to focus on him while they a.s.sa.s.sinated the Blood Ape, this distraction would also allow the Three Suns Army under the Dragon Empire to surround the enemy camp preventing any enemy escape.

"Look at that they don't need our help after all" Freya looking at the nearby Heather smiles as she inspects her elemental long sword filled with the power of a raging storm.

"Keep watching Dashnell would not send us here if things were going to go smoothly, they may be hiding a few more Earth experts they have been killing countless Mortals for five years who knows what they are hiding.
