Destruction
Rowan Carnegie
"we'll find a base. We need to find one that's quite easy to attack."
Rowan spoke Sirius as the both of them wandered through Senexus.
"I should have brought more backup."
Sirius spoke while Rowan didn't mind the continuous ramble.
They both continued wandering through cold, dark, musty, mountain attempting to find anything. Although several criers were met, Rowan and his assistant triumphed over them Easily.
"Sirius, I've spotted a base. It might be filled with criers above the Novice or warlord level. It'll take quite a while to take over this base. Are you ready?"
Rowan asked Sirius with a heavy complexion.
"Sir."
Sirius replied as he pulled his sword out.
"Ok, Let's move."
Rowan spoke slowly as he took Gladiaux out.
They both arrived at a massive structure that resembled a fortress.
"I'll head in first, follow me. We should aim to conclude this promptly and discreetly given that we are the only ones present."
Rowan ordered Sirius. Sirius silently acknowledged that this undertaking wouldn't transpire as anticipated. He knew Rowan would destroy the whole fort.
"Here we go!"
Rowan murmured as she swiftly entered the fort. Sirius followed after him as he managed to keep up with Rowan. They both crouched behind a large box or container.
Rowan prepared to launch an attack from inside the base that could demolish it.
"Sirius, as soon as I'm done with my attack, I need you to unleash one as well."
Rowan ordered Sirius with a serious face.
"Sir, we need to eliminate the camp leader first and then take over the base..."
Sirius reminded Rowan of their main objective at the base: to declare war against the Criers by killing the camp leader. The destruction of the base was not the primary goal.
"Alright. I hear ya."
Rowan sighed but a big grin appeared on his face. He slowly got up and vanished from his initial position. Sirius was quite surprised by how fast Rowan was. But he then followed behind him.
Rowan walked through the hallways fearlessly. The only real trouble in the fort was the camp leader but he wasn't bothered by it.
"Greetings, my name is Rowan Carnegie. And I'm here to take the head of your beloved leader."
Rowan was excited to demolish the criers while Sirius followed silently.
Rowan's smile looked menacing as he walked through the hallway. He soon reached the end of the hall.
Spurt--
Blood spurt everywhere across the hall. It seemed as if he didn't move a finger but before the criers could attack them, it was over.
All the criers in Rowan's were killed. Rowan had beheaded all of them within seconds.
Criers from all over the fort arrived to stop Rowan and Sirius from going into the leader the room but Sirius was ready to take them all by himself.
"I can handle all of them by myself. You can go ahead and kill their leader."
Sirius spoke as he looked at the mini army of the criers. They consisted of warlords and Novice leveled Criers. All of the criers tried to attack Sirius all together but it was of no use.
"Ok, be safe my friend."
Rowan spoke to Sirius, but he was too busy observing criers arriving from all over the fort.
**
Rowan burst into the room and found the leader, who was prepared for battle.
"As expected of a leader, always prepared."
"Yes, commotion is often a warning sign.."
The Crier spoke. He seemed to be an Asura-leveled Crier. It was as Rowan had thought.
"I hope you're prepared to die."
Rowan spoke with a large, menacing grin on his face.
Although many criers fight bare-handed only with their claws that wasn't the case with this one. Well, the majority of the criers used weapons.
"Let's see about that."
As the Crier wielded its spear and took on a battle-ready position, it initiated its speech. It made the initial strike by thrusting its spear towards Rowan. However, Rowan effortlessly evaded the attack and retaliated with his sword. The crier attempted to block the assault, but unbeknownst to it, Rowan had a trick up his sleeve.
"I'm sorry, but you're too slow. I can see your attacks from a mile away."
Rowan kicked the Crier in the face and sent it flying into the wall.
"Ughkkkk"
The Crier made weird noises due to the impact but got up in an instant.
"Wow, you're pretty strong for someone who looks ret***ed"
With a smile on its face, the Crier began taunting Rowan. However, Rowan was not convinced by anything the Crier said and instead attacked the Crier by slashing at it. The Crier managed to dodge the attack with its spear and also launched an attack of its own, slicing at Rowan. However, the attack was pretty useless. Rowan disappeared and reappeared behind the crier, facing away from it. The crier's vision became blurry before it could turn around and attack Rowan, as the fight was already over.
Spurt-
The Crier's head lay on the ground, blood staining the floor. Without its vital organ, regeneration was impossible.
"When did you move?"
The Crier spoke with a low voice.
"Like I said, you're just too slow."
Rowan decisively plunged his sword into the heart of the Crier, ensuring its swift demise. The Crier's physical form disintegrated into thin air, leaving behind no evidence of its existence.
Rowan was shocked when he left the room and saw that the entire hall was covered in red and black blood. The battle had ended, and Sirius had dominated all the criers in the fort.
"Looks like you're done with your battle as well."
Rowan spoke as he was disgusted at the scenery in front of him.
"It seems like you haaaa had fun fighting the leader haaaa but I fought nearly 120 criers all by haaaa myself."
Sirius spoke as he looked downright exhausted had gasped for air every three seconds.
"Hahahaha."
Rowan laughed trying to lighten the mood up.
"Ok, now can we destroy the fort?"
Rowan asked Sirius to which he nodded.
"Alright. You better get out of here or I might blow you up with the fort."
Rowan joked as he headed to the middle of the fort, which appeared to be empty. It seemed like the place where the crier held duels and other events.
Rowan prepared to launch an attack.
"Galaxus style, Move 3 - distruzione sismica."
**
A dark blue light had enveloped the entire base. The attack caused a small earthshake. After the smoke slowly dissipated, the whole fort was reduced to ruins. Everything was on fire and broke.
"Never gets old."
Sirius slowly cried to himself as he watched from afar. The magnitude would cause a big uproar throughout Senexus. Sirius saw the silhouette of Rowan walking up to him.
**
After meeting Sirius, Rowan retreated to Synthex to avoid danger in Senexus.
"Master Viktor, I've completed the mission."
Rowan spoke to Viktor as he bowed down.
"I see. Well done. But I have to talk to you about something. It may be related to your brother."
