Orsgadts
Elzenthum Core

Silent. Why so quiet? Isn't there a war out there? Did I miss something?

Emune could not feel his own body. Something was taking over his body after he destroyed Yhourin. The evil witch has become ashes, Goenhrad remains. Emune felt warm, as if he was being embraced by an invisible force.

He heard the voices of Proner and Leonz. What are they talking about? Emune could not catch their words. Proner's voice then disappeared.

Leonz, yes, Leonz is talking to him. Sounds pretty loud and clear. He understands all his words. Goenhrad, Elqoz, and Korta. Leonz told him to temper his powers. How-to? He doesn't know.

Elric, he remembered his lover. Elric must be worried about her. Emune smiled. He wants to see Elric soon. He hugged Elric. He must free himself from this power.

Slowly Emune could feel his hand again. His entire senses that had felt dull now began to function. The sound of war out there rubbed his ears. Emune looked down at the blue light that was at his feet. There was something in that light.

Emune's eyes were fixated on the small light at the end of his foot. Suddenly his eyes flashed, a blood-red layer covering his gaze. From where he stood he could see the war out there. Bodies, blood, and cries of death swirled in his head.

Then there was Alfred who lay without life. Emune can't cry. The red layer blocked her tears. Heart hurts. He's very angry.

***

The appearance of the red light that shot up from the north and fell in the middle of the Korta army shocked all those on the battlefield. Those in the know, such as Olevander, Verunum, Elqoz and Horeen felt a sense of horror. The war would turn into the destruction of Artamea.

The red light slowly went up into space. A body in full golden armor floated with both hands beside his body. His eyes were closed, his hair was fluttering slowly.

Seeing the army of Korta frozen since the appearance of the red light, the kings and commanders ordered his troops to retreat. They stared in confusion at the figure hovering far ahead of them. Is this a new threat?

Leonz appears in the middle of Verunum and Olevander. He held his hands without speaking. He will try to awaken Emune's consciousness while simultaneously stemming Elzenthum's power. It doesn't work, but it doesn't hurt to try.

Leonz's power is running out so he needs more energy from Olevander and Verunum. Unfortunately, the energy of both is also a little. Avena and Horeen suddenly appeared and knelt behind Leonz while holding onto the little girl's shoulder. A white light appeared in front of Leonz. Erreandrey, his mother, knelt down in front of him and placed her palm on Leonz's forehead.

Waves of red-colored light moved quickly spread out in all directions. The frozen Korta army vanished from the battlefield, as did the pet beasts of Goenhrad and Anthura that were still helplessly sprawled north of Orsgadt.

The cry of victory filled the air. The armies of the three kingdoms rejoiced because the army of Korta had vanished. The excitement instantly dissipated as the wave did not also stop even wider in range. They were immediately ordered to retreat by the commanders of their respective forces.

The formation formed by Leonz gave off a colorful glow that quickly confined the light waves. A white light shot out from the top of Leonz's head and shot towards Emune's still-floating figure.

“Emune, I'm Leonz, your best friend.” The white light let out a sound near Emune's ears.

There's no answer whatsoever. Emune's eyes were already as red as blood. His body that was shrouded in a crimson light was stiff like a dead tree.

The white light turned into Leonz in the form of a white mist moving slowly. Leonz's two small hands touched Emune's cheeks which were partially covered in his war helmet.

Emune felt something cold touch her. There was Leonz's voice then one by one the faces of his loved ones appeared. His father, mother and grandfather smiled at him. Next came everything he had known since he was a child and those who traveled with him.

Her handsome and loving Elric's sweet smile made her feel warm. He also remembers Fiona, Greg, Arrand and Knight Hemworth embracing him lovingly as he arrived in Eimersun.

“I'm never alone,” said Emune with his own mouth.

As soon as the sentence was spoken, the red light wave that had been so wildly turned blue then pierced through the shield made with the Leonz formation earlier. The waves continued to flow all over Artamea, causing a small and bearish earthquake, splitting the land and draining water in the ravine created by Horeen some time ago. The river of fire that Emune and his comrades once had to go through turned into a vast meadow and the Valley of Death was covered by eternal ice.

The silence returned.

Leonz fell into his mother's arms. Erreandrey hugged and kissed her pale-faced, limp-faced daughter. Not only did Leonz, Olevander, Verunum, Avena and Horeen fall. Elgentum was not their opponent. I don't know what would happen if Erreandrey didn't come to help.

Horeen hugged Avena. He's almost crazy to think that Avena's going to be doomed because of Elzenthum. He himself does not matter if injured and dead but he is not willing if it happens to his lover. Avena smiled in the arms of Horeen.

Emune's body that was still floating after the blue light wave disappeared was now slowly descending and falling to the ground. Proner and Elric drove each horse quickly. Elric took Emune and checked her pulse. The Proner kneels near Emune.

“Elric, help me stand,” pinta Emune.

Elric was reluctant to do so but feeling his chest being pressed down by Emune's palm, he immediately helped him up.

“You must rest,” said Elric.

“This is not finished. Goenhrad,” says Emune.

“Hamba will punish him,” said Proner. It's impossible to let Emune fight Goenhrad now.

“You forgot? I am the last descendant of the Great King Orsgadt. My energy is still enough to punish the accursed man,” Emune said.

Elric and Proner let out a heavy sigh. Emune smiled. He looked north, towards the blue dragon perched on the main tower of Orsgadt's palace. “Elqoz, take me to the killer's place,” Emune said.

The blue dragon came and greeted Emune.

“Sure, Your Majesty,” replied Elqoz with his inner voice. He could not bear to surprise those on the battlefield who did not know he could speak human language. Next time, he's amused.

Proner and Elric did not remain silent. Emune sits at the front and is guarded by Elric. Emune placed her hand on the arm of Elric who was hugging her waist. He was happy to still be able to meet and feel the existence of his lover. Emune turned his head for a while towards Proner who was sitting nervously behind Elric. An amused smile rang on Emune's lips as he remembered how Proner hated flying.

Elqoz flew into the north-eastern tower of Orsgadt Palace.
