Acroniya place closed to heaven on Earth, Magistic mountain standing in his glory for  still for ages covered  by clouds, never-ending waterfalls spreading life all over the Acronyia. All living forces share a common connection with the nature, a strange yet a powerful one, nature's such calm energy flows through out Acroniya , the land once was blessed, was covered it flames of destruction and chaos.

However, people of Acronyian have completed faith on their heroes, to protect their trust.... Acronyian army is trying their best to protect their people, one of a unit of Acronyian army is on move.

Zellto and his Kazo's entered the place covered in blood and destruction, buildings crumbled and turned into dust. Zelltos and men inspected the area and found, group of Neothaliyan beast feeding on the bodies of Acronyians. Zellto made a quick call and said, " I will attract the beast 5 of you go and search for survivors and rest try to kill as many as beasts possible", he added "is that clear". " Yes , Vice Commander " all Kazo's replied in single voice. Everything went to plan and they were able to kill 5 of the 8 beasts and then backup arrived. "Zellto we can handle from here , you need to go to outskirts take these wind beasts "  Julicous said pointing towards hundreds of beasts standing calmly beside Acroniyan army, Zellto looked towards the Wind Beasts, Julicous said," they may look weak with mere flesh and bone , but despite there holl bones they are powerful enough to carry 10 times their weight and most important they are actually fast. Zellto noded to Julicous, turn towards his soldier, "Let's go " he said shouting to increase moral of his soldier . Everyone Kazo replied ,"Let's go".

Julicous waited for Zellto , " now , let's fight" he said looking to heard of beasts carraving for human blood and flash. 

"Kazo's commander Julicous will be fine , everyone get ready for the fight and remember are proprity is to protect and evacuate the people the army will reach soon to eradicate those pests" Zellto given clear instructions . Kazo's replied in one sound "understood".Zellto along with Zako's moved in to the outstricks south to the royal caste 

After travelling for 10 minutes they encountered their first enemy was a Razor Fang. The beast's corrupted flesh, slick with blood, melted and sloughed off, revealing dark veins pumping crimson blood that sizzled and destroyed everything it touched. The melted flesh created gaps, exposing blackened bones. Even its eyes had lost flesh, leaving only half-melted eyeballs. "Everyone, be careful!" Zellto yelled. "Its blood is highly corrosive!"

The Razor Fang lunged, biting his own arm and spraying blood wildly around him. One of the Kazo nearest the beast was about to be struck in a vital organ when another Kazo, close by, reacted swiftly and pulled him back just in time. The blood landed on a Wind Beast, but nothing happened. "His blood isn't strong! Let's finish him!" yelled a nearby Kazo, charging towards the creature. Before Zellto could warn him, the Kazo attacked.

"Move back!" Zellto shouted, but the soldier ignored him. Zellto rushed towards them, explaining, "Wind Warriors share a common ancestor with Razor Fangs, making them immune to the corrosive blood. In fact, their blood possesses potent healing properties!" Zellto sliced the Razor Fang in half, pushing the reckless Kazo back in the process. Blood erupted from the beast like a fountain. Zellto swiftly kicked the body away and dodged the few drops that threatened to fall on him. Despite his agility, some blood touched his left hand. It swelled rapidly, the veins straining and threatening to burst. Flesh began to melt. Acting fast, Zellto grabbed a vial containing a shimmering white liquid and poured it over the affected area. The pain intensified momentarily before receding. Dark marks receded, and his blood vessels returned to normal.

One of the Kazo approached, worry etched on his face. "Vice Commander, are you alright?"

"Yes, I am," Zellto replied, taking deep breaths to recover. The pain subsided in a few minutes.

"Let's divide , i will along with five of you will go west from here rest head south." he said and looked towards the Zako who recklessly attacked the beast and shouted on him , " what were you thinking" and added ," if you want fame that badly , go lead your congrets , die if it is only option, don't  show your enemy any mersy and hatrad .Destroy fear of your congrates and protect people , who charies us with your own life . If you have power to this lead them" . Zellto shouted "do you have courage "

 " Yes sir , " that kazo replied . " okay well then go vice captain Andeer Kinomu , lead us to victory.

Zellto and other started dividing into smaller and smaller groups to cover large areas 

Battle between Commanders is going to commence soon

In the Deptor Valley ....

Commander Neil order "Acroniyan Army make 5th formation" . All soldiers moved and formed 5 rectangles . Centre most having most of the soldiers and sidewards having less and thereafter. Neil shouted , " We Acroniyans are ready , raise your weapons and fight us like a warrior or leave this place and never - ever return to this land again". " Well Well , how noisily ,are you the commander of those worms " Commander Zecktor said moving out of his camp ," I have a offer for you,  I will slaughter you in front of these worms , and then there turn or we can also do vice versa ." he paused for waiting  for Neil answer and added ." What is your answer Commander of worms" and started laughing. Neil raised his sword and said in loud tone , " Natural none of them can be achieved by weakling like you , however let's keep army out for time being and fight head on." "Commander , be careful , Neothaliyans never fight fair" one of the soldiers said to Neil. " Even they don't have trust on you" ,Zecktor said moking Neil further  adding , " judging by this it seems your are not even worth mentioning". Neil just raised his voice a bit and said" I know they completely trust me." " and Petentieo " he lowered his voice and continued "don't worry i will end it soon".Zecktor shouted in angry ,"Don't even think to insult me you pest , I am Zacktor Neckran , the one who don't craves human blood and but rather feed on it, I have...". " have you not done yet, and by the way is our duel started" Neil said yaming. Seeing this , Zecktor is covered in rage and shouted," how dare you insult me , the moment you dare insult me, battle was started. I wil....". "Okay if that's the case , I should end this really quick" Neil hold his sword properly and rushed towards the Zecktor before he could react Neil have covered all his possible ways to run , " Farewell for ever " Neil said and cut his neck in a single strick and shouted your "Commander is dead . You have two options either to run and never enter the Acroniya our accompany your Commander to Hell ". Neothaliyan Army shouted in fear ,"run, everyone run, run for your lives".

"What just happened", Zecktor was thinking when his head was falling to the ground. He remembers," Those eyes and hair " his eyes grows in disbelief and disappointment and thought," only if i recognised it earlier. They look just like him ." Zecktor's head fall on the ground and only one word come from his mouth,"Landerous". Neil come to the head of Zecktor and mummber to himself," Does he sad Landerous , do he know my grandfather, anyways ". Neil open Flaming red gem from his pouch and replaced it with the brown gem , his sword turn red and engalfed in flame he moved his sword and all the corpses caught fire and returned to nature in form of ashes.

Neil looked in the sky and said , " Lucky there are only a handful of corpses , and no causality except for him" he looked towards the corpse of Zecktor and added , " At least it is a causality for them I guess so."

"Everything we are done here lets go now" he order soldiers to move.

"Very well then," Zellto said, a hint of respect in his voice. "Go, Vice Captain Andeer Kinomu, lead us to victory."

Zellto and the others divided into smaller groups, determined to cover more ground. The scent of blood hung heavy in the air, a grim reminder of the ongoing war. As they ventured deeper, the tremors of the approaching battle between the main armies echoed through the land.

In the Deptor Valley...

Commander Neil, a beacon of unwavering leadership, issued a booming command: "Acronian Army, form the fifth formation!" The soldiers responded with practiced efficiency, forming a series of interlocking rectangles, a defensive strategy designed to maximize their strength.

"We, the Acroniyans, are ready!" Neil declared, his voice ringing with conviction. "Raise your weapons and fight with the spirit of warriors! Defend our land, or flee and never return!"

From the opposing camp emerged Commander Zecktor, his movements radiating arrogance. "Well, well, quite the noisy welcome," he sneered. "You must be the commander of these... worms. I have a generous offer. I can slaughter you in front of your precious worms, then turn my attention to them, or perhaps we can go in the other order." He paused, relishing the fear he assumed he instilled. "What's your answer, worm commander?"

Neil raised his sword, his eyes blazing with defiance. "Neither option is attainable by a weakling like you," he countered. "However, let us spare the armies for now. We can settle this with a duel, mano a mano."

"A duel? Be careful, Commander," one of Neil's soldiers cautioned. "Neothaliyans never fight fair."

Zecktor cackled, further fueling his image of a menacing villain. "Don't worry, soldier. Even they wouldn't trust someone as pathetic as you."

Undeterred, Neil raised his voice further. "They have complete trust in me," he declared. "And Petentieo," he added, lowering his voice to a murmur for his soldiers' ears only, "don't worry, I'll end this quickly."

Enraged by the perceived insult, Zecktor roared, "Don't even think about using that name, you pest! I am Zecktor Neckran, the one who doesn't crave human blood, but rather feeds on it! I have..."

"Enough talk!" Neil interrupted, impatience evident in his tone. "Is this duel happening or not?"

Seeing Neil's unwavering resolve, Zecktor's anger contorted his features. "How dare you interrupt me!" he shrieked. "The moment you did, the duel began. I will..."

"Then let's finish this quickly," Neil interjected, charging towards Zecktor with lightning speed. He anticipated Zecktor's possible escape routes, effectively cutting him off. In a single, decisive strike, Neil severed Zecktor's neck. "Farewell, forever," he declared. "Your army has two choices: flee and never return to Acroniya, or join your commander in the depths of hell!"

A wave of terror swept through the Neothaliyan ranks. Their leader, the seemingly invincible Zecktor, was vanquished in a blink. Panic set in as their battle cries turned into desperate shouts of, "Run! Everyone run for your lives!"

"What just happened?" Zecktor's bewildered thoughts echoed as his head began to fall. A flash of recognition sparked in his dying eyes. "Those eyes... that hair..." He sputtered in disbelief and regret. "If only I had recognized them sooner. They look just like him..."

Zecktor's head tumbled to the ground, his final word escaping his lips in a choked whisper: "Landerous..."

Neil stood tall over the fallen commander, a hint of sadness flickering in his eyes. He muttered to himself, "Does he say Landerous? Did he know my grandfather? Regardless..." He reached into his pouch and retrieved a flaming red gem, replacing the brown one embedded in his sword. As he ignited the gem, the blade shimmered with fire. With a powerful swing, Neil engulfed the battlefield in cleansing flames, reducing the corpses to ashes, a final act of respect for both fallen friend and foe.

Gazing towards the heavens, Neil offered a silent prayer. "Thankful there were only a few casualties," he acknowledged, his voice heavy with the burden of war. "...At least it's a casualty for them, I suppose."

"Everyone, gather yourselves," he commanded his troops with a weary but determined voice. "Our job here is done. Let's move out."

||Defeating a Commander is not an easy task, probably he was weak. Neil is moving a head and everyone fulfilling their respective duties in this time. Zellto moving to rescue the citizens of Acronyian in the Outskirts and Julicious protecting remaining  civilians. Many other corners of Acronyian also covered in blood and tears and many worriors stood to protect their homeland.||
