Event 02

"Fangs, come out"

Adam took a good distance from the clearing before calling for Fangs, equally his pawns were now at his feet.

"Woof"

"Very good! Now take me to where you kept the items".

After a few minutes of walking. Fangs, leads Adam to a tree and starts digging near the base, he retrieves two pairs of boots, two pairs of gloves and two vests, as well as a ring.

"Interesting, bring it here"

After inspecting he realizes that it is a ring with some rune magic on it.

"Looks like someone was trying to cheat, this ring can only be active by a specific incantation"

he looks at his chest and picks up the artifact.

~ Pawn 01 take this and leave walking through the forest, go to the deepest place following this direction and kill whatever you find there.

One of the puppets takes the artifact, puts it on his back and runs off towards the east.

"Now I have complete freedom to use this"

He pulls the sword from his waist and slashes his palm and puts the other in his pocket, from there he takes a strand of red hair.

"Cain, thank you, your high concentration of mana will make me take another step towards my goal"

He puts his hair over the wound and begins to recite words in an unknown language, a magic circle appears below his feet and a golden light begins to stream from his skin, his red eyes turn blue for a few seconds and then beams of light are emitted from them, he slowly opens his mouth and equally a golden beam comes out of it.

He floats for a few seconds, meanwhile the wound on his hand starts to heal quickly as well as his calluses and scars, his skin becomes smooth and shiny, his black hair becomes even darker and grows a few centimeters.

His fingernails fall off and grow back in a few moments, black blood starts coming down from his ears and nostrils, but it evaporates soon after.

Adam falls to the ground unconscious and for a small second the whole forest trembles and a time-forgotten creature awakens from its deep sleep.

A race that has remained hidden begins to move through the trees, their goal was the source of such disturbance, and perhaps an opportunity to make the one they have been waiting so long for wake up.

[Trait 'Emperor's Path', has been awakened]

...

[Tower of Magic]

The man sitting in his chair takes a fright and shouts without thinking.

"What was that?"

Soon after his inquiry several acolytes started reporting bad news.

"Sir a large mass of magical energy has been noticed in the forest"

"Sir several unidentified creatures are moving at high speed around the perimeter of the event"

"Sir Animas have been identified on the perimeter of the event"

"Sir an ethereal mass composed only of magical energy has begun to move towards the perimeter of the event"

The man was wearing a worried expression, he tightly clenched his staff and shouted with a certain urgency.

"Communicate to the king, tell him what is happening and tell him to prepare for a war"

Noticing all the movement, one of the young men who remained calm asked about something that bothered him.

"Sir, what about Adam?"

"Let him, surely a bastard wouldn't have anything to do with such unimaginable power"

...

[Castle]

The air was heavy, most of the servants could barely breathe, the king sitting on his throne had a heavy expression and all the nobles in the hall were looking at the floor in fear.

A man with short crimson hair and completely red armor with a golden bird emblem on his chest was holding the souls of the nobles with one hand and their hearts with the other.

"Someone has awakened a very complicated trait in my kingdom"

The lords in response knelt down and clenched their fists, they knew the threat posed by someone with such a trait.

"Tell me, which one of you hid the fact that his son has the 'Emperor's Path'?"

Everyone was silent, regardless of whether they were generals renowned for their ruthlessness or power, they were all in genuine fear of their sovereign.

Except for one person, an old man with a long beard, he speaks calmly as he approaches the king. His golden tunic with white rings shows his authority, and the staff in his hand confirms his position, this man is the Archmage.

"My lord I fear we have an even bigger problem than a usurper, the great lord of the forest who has been in hibernation for 5 decades has awakened and with him came them, I believe they are after the enlightened boy."

With a certain disdain the king answered him.

"Let him die"

"Sir, if the forest king puts his hand on such a trait I believe the balance will finally be broken and our kingdom will not be able to sustain itself"

The man made a frightening scowl, his hand slammed firmly against the arm of his throne.

"Send the court knights and the graduated acolytes, I believe that is enough."

The mage raised a finger and from it appeared images seen through the artifacts of the young men at the event and so he argued some more.

"Not yet, send the mage from the tower of magic, I have a strong feeling that his help will be needed in this campaign"

"So be it."

A few minutes later a squadron consisting of fifty knights in red armor marches through the streets, twenty mages in purple robes and a golden ring come behind and above them all, flying, is the illustrious master of the magic tower.

"Follow me, I Mathew Thunder will lead you to success"

At the front of all the soldiers is a knight in golden armor, and a broad sword on his back, in his hand is a shield meant to be used by two people, full of morale he shouts.

"TO THE KING THE VICTORY"

Immediately all the knights at his back shout in unison.

"VICTORY"

...

With some urgency someone runs down a long corridor until he arrives in front of a curtain, he quickly kneels down and without reading on paper speaks in a nervous manner.

"Sir a squadron composed only of military forces is invading our forest"

"Take the squadrons of men more powerful beasts, these humans will know we are not herbivores"

Immediately several warriors with fearsome appearances began to appear in the forest, strong men holding huge axes, women carrying bows and daggers, and finally, tenebrous beasts that appeared to have emerged from the deepest cave in the earth.

"I SCAR PROMISE A BLOODBATH HAWOOOOOOOOOOOO"

His general uttered such words and all the soldiers responded with equally fearsome howls.

"HAWOOOOOOOO"
