《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 44: Reasoning
Advertisement
"Well, to start with, most of what Hui and Juni had told you was 100% right, but also 100% wrong. The reason I made the treaty to begin with wasn't Just because of the internal problems, we also had external problems, especially out of the main city, ie were we are right now. You see, our dimension works on a territorial basis. As so, we decided to split the dimension into 8 sectors, one for each direction (N,NE,E,SE,S,SW,W,NW). We are currently living in the NE region, which is comprised of 4 seperate provinces. Each different sector has there own set of rules, Lord, etc, but I have been chosen to be the leader of the 8 sectors, in the 1280th meeting that took place. The next decade I may as well lose my position, however, so I won't be of much help in the future. So -"
Hui started to yawn . "This is getting boring, I'm going to sleep. Wake me up when you guys done, k?"
"Anyways, as I was saying, to not go into much detail, I'll simply say that ever since I was chosen as the Lord of the 8 Sectors, or the SupMa , was when everything had started, the blood feuds. My father and mother both had relations with the other quadrants, so, in a sense , I'm part of every quadrant's royal family. Since most sectors were against other's rights and whatnot, there would usually be civil wars. When my parents took the title of SupMa, they abolished our warlike acts and tried to take us to the peaceful way of living, but now, most of the flugre are trying to revert to their normal self. I myself do not want this to happen, but alas, I can't change this. After this problem, the overgrowing population is another problem , mainly in our sector, as ours is most advanced. We currently have a population density of 10 people / cubic meter. As a result to this, food is becoming a problem, and since we need the Letri Province for its provisions , it's use is slowly diminishing, as more and more animals are being killed. Yuki and Yuni were a project of mine in which we would breed giant animals to make more meat, but you guys killed them, so that is a problem. We have also been trying to gather some plants from the Dragon's , because there plants can grow almost anywhere. After this, even more problems arised, including more and more civil wars, poverty, and all that , so I had to strike a deal with someone, to help us overcome these problems, because , there was already a big internal feud going on. At that time, LesLout was busy, so i couldn't contact him, the Demon's used to and are still secretive, the angels couldn't spare time, the dragon's had problems as well, so our only option was the reapers, our closest in power and location. I then decided to meet with Raizel, because he was a rather free going Lord, who didn't have many things to do. When we met, I told him about my ideals, and what I want him to help me with. To put simply, I wanted him to provide us with provisions, create two more islands in the NE sector, and try and bring peace, forcefully if need be, but no killing. He accepted my terms readily, and all he asked back was for our complete co-operation with anything he needed, and that we would be supporting him, without question. I also accepted this, not knowing he had a deeper plan to this. And, as Hui must have told you, we flugre are sworn to oblige to any oath or promise. I couldn't back down now, but, I also told him that if anything was to not be fulfilled , the treaty was to be dissolved, and he too, accepted this. When this was signed, most of my coleagues thought it was a bad idea, but I thought it was something to be of help with us, and if things are concentrated on the NE sector, than the poverty could gain enough wealth to continue living, but this was considered biased by the others, which created more problems, with the other sectors. After this, we were having a good time. Yet, about a month or so, Raizel called us, telling us to do something simple. 'Build an army. I want you to have atleast 50,000 soldiers ready.' keep in mind this was about 4 months before he killed LesLout. Well, I would think that about sums it up. In the end really, this was something made for the reason of the Dimension having peace itself, but proved something different then what we thought. Now, any more questions, Johnny?"

I thought for a while. The first thing I did was shake Hui, saying, "Wakey wakey." and she jolted upright. "Huh? Who? What? Where? Oh, she's done, how long have I been asleep?" and Juni chuckled. "It's only been 10 minutes, Trine is a fast talker, I could barely understand what she was saying." and Hazen started spinning in circles. "Wh? Sector? 8? Pizza? Is Flugre Dimension a Big Pizza? hehe..." and he fell down. I understood it, yet I didn't understand what was so hard about it. "Okay, I understand our situation now, I can try and help you break your promise with him, and that would change your obligations." she seemed intrigued by what I was about to tell her. She rose an eyebrow. "How so, Johnny?" and I told her.
"To put it simple, it's much easier due to your last point, so , we simply need to stop one of your points, like, for example, I can just do..... this. Now, wait like 2 days and then the treaty will be broken."
After Two Days
"Okay, so, what has happened, Johnny?" and I told her, as we were staying in the castle, it was easier for us. "Look outside, would you?" and I moved the blinds. There we saw a bunch of flugre's and harpy's at the doorway of the imperial castle, putting there hands up, for food. "What did you do!" she said, seemingly in anger. I told her. "I simply did a few things. I first made part of Yagrik, with the help of the Unis(SE's found in MysBox, mixed together) , into a trap which would activate a certain spell. This was placed in the positions of the provisions sent, and was transformed directly into Mei. The next thing, is with the remaining provisions everyone had, with Yagrik, I managed to put a small pill in each of them which rapidly drains stamina, but keeps the user alive for atleast 2 weeks, but they are extremely weakened. Now, after a while, you can neglect Raizel's orders, as he broke the rule of giving you provisons, and the one about helping you with the internal issues, which, in this case, would be mass famine. Simple enough. If it is to cruel, I'll do another one." and she sighed. "No, it's alright, thanks." she then went outside, and addressed to the people about what happened, and they seemed to understand the situation, yet they still had a problem bearing the pain, so I gave them strong painkillers, which would reduce the pain for quite a while.

At this point, stage one of my plan was done, which was freeing Trine of her obligations. The next was to team up with her and defeat the common enemy, I then called out her name. "Yes, Johnny?" I then bowed my head to her, and said, "In position of the Human Lord, Hazen the Tenth, I humbly request you to create an alliance with us, the Human Dimension. Our terms are simple. Both parties are to negotiate with eachother before they are to do any action, and what is to be done is decided by the both of them, so, Trine~Sama, do you accept , or do you refuse?" and she seemed impressed. "Johnny of the Humans, I accept your request of alliance." and this was a step to my plan. The rest of my plan was to take action in a while , when the dust has settled. With that, we had started our new quest, which was to aid the Angels. I left Juni and Hazen with Trine, and I told Juni, since I couldn't trust Hazen, to put the red pill in any circle that is in the more Mei Dense area, and the blue pills are to be given to every inhabitant, and she accepted this. So, me and Hui went alone to aid the angels with the upcoming danger which was approaching them, faster than expected. Yet, little did we know, the Demons were already prepared for a full scale invasion.
Thus, we walked to the portal area, and Hui jumped up, a bit happy, because me and Juni were seperate. "Yoshi!Ikuza!" and we went through the portal , towards Heaven.

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace. Note to Reader: I am not of an Asian background, but this work is heavily influenced by Eastern stories and concepts. In saying that, it is an INFLUENCE only. Keep in mind that this is a fantasy work, and any butchering of names, concepts or cultural objects/places/subjects are not meant in any way to offend. With that in mind, Happy Reading! - Jelim
