With one swing of his arm, a giant green tentacle fell to the ground and twitched. Sodo's arm had been covered with a large green sword that radiated with energy . The energy flowed away from his arm while taking the ship of a tendril, and picked up a steel sword soaked in pink blood." How dare you touch me with your filthy paws, parasite." The massive monster full of eyes, and tentacles spoke with many mouths on its upper body. Around them was a ruined village with so much crimson red blood that splashes could be made
The monster spoke a spell, and numerous skeletons rose from the blood-soaked ground. In their hands were swords, and axes. Maggots crawled from their eyes as their teeth chattered
Sodo turned into a spinning slash, which beheaded one skeleton, and caused his body to fell into piecex." You forgot that we Jian live for a long time, essentially immortal." His voice had a hint of worry in it. He opened his hand toward the rest of the skeletons and a bright green ray shined upon them, which caused them to turn on each other. They tore each other apart till their was nothing left but bones.
Wings of green energy formed on Sodo's back as a smirk cracked on his lips. He flew up wirh enough force that he caused a splash in the puddles of blood. He sliced another tentacle off which sprayed blood on him.'Ew, that is just so foul." He started to spit some of the blood out of his mouth. Immediately, one tentacle wrapped around him and he was thrown inside one of the many mouths of the monster with his sword still on him.
"I will grind you down to dust." the monster roared out.
Sodo pieced its snake-like tongue with the steel sword and dragged down its throat causing a long open wound."Here is my stop, he flew up, and saw its beating heart. In a lunge, his sword went through its heart and sprayed a massive amount of blood on him as he dragged downward. The monster roared in absolute agony as it collapsed on the ground. Sodo, tore through its chest which allowed organs to fall out. After getting through the organs, he was finally free.
"Take that you fallen god." Sodo screamed out of pride, and relief.
"That is not a fallen god." A dark aura manifested as a skeleton-like being with some rotting flesh still hanging on him said as he stepped through the thick blood.
A deep chuckled escaped its lips as he slowly walked towards Sodo. Sodo felt the aura, and found his legs shaking." what is this fear? I am a Tian, we are an elder species.'
Sodo's green eyes laid upon him, and he lunged forward in a downward slash. His sword was still soaked with the blood of the monster.
With his skeletal hand, he grabbed the blade of the sword. The wind stopped at the counter. Sodo gripped his sword and tried to move his sword, but he couldn't. The undead like bent over, and whispered in a calm, but deep voice." I am the one you sought to kill."
All the wind was knocked out of Sodo as he struggled to breathe while the fallen god gave him a single punch to the midsection.
The fallen god took the blade as Sodo collapsed on the ground."How far the Jian has fallen. In the Era of monsters, your kind, and the Koku struck fear in my heart, what happened to you." He shattered the blade into many pieces by squeezing the steel blade.
He gave a swift kick to Sodo's skull which launched him through a ruined building. He went through the stone wall, and rolled over the ashy floor.
Sodo coughed violently while holding his stomach. He then vomited blood on the ground, while summoning two large arms made of his energy to hold him up.
The Fallen god walked slowly to the building while having his hand opened. Out of his palm, a sharp bone teared away the flesh as its rough and edged shape took form of a blade. As he walked, the ground turned black as night, grass withered away around him at his intense dark power.
Sodo grunted as the energy began to heal his wounds internally, and outward. He walked out with energy covering his fists.
"The healing capacities of the Jian is remarkable." The fallen god said as he pointed his sword made of bone at him.
Sodo with palm opened, he slammed his hand on the ground, and thorny plants wrapped around the fallen god." Extend." The thorns extended through his bone. A small grunt escaped from his lips.
With a flex, he shattered the thorns and with one thrust stabbed through Sodo's midsection. Blood spat out of Sodo's mouth as held on to the blade of the sword. Blood cane gushing out of Sodo's midsection. Sodo's vision started to fade as he spat out more blood on the fallen god." Choke on your own blood. You are not worth being my thrall."
The fallen god released the sword from his palm as Sodo fell down on the ground with the sword still stuck in his midsection.
Shadows as dark as night engulfed the fallen god, and like a vapor he disappered.
In the darkness of his vision, Sodo saw something with wings descend from the heavens. With one last bloody cough, his vision faded.
The Koko in a rush descended down like a bird flying to its injuried young. She held on to Sodo as she examined the bone sword lounged in his midsection. Dark lines crawled all over his body, and his eyes turned to a grayish color.
'Why should I save him? He is the enemy, the Jian are monsters, the lives, genocidal beasts.' She thought in her mind as she gripped her fists while almost shaking in anger.
"Screw it, you owe me when you wake up." Her tone was sassy as she picked him up and extended her wings.
'Blessed is the one who saves his enemy, and he who heals the hated.' A strange voice sounded in her mind as she flew upwards into the blue sky with his limp body. His energy disappered which rendered him completely bare.
Sodo's eyes shot open as he rose up from the ground. He looked at his hand that shined with a medium degree of brighteness." Where am I?" The area was full of mist, Small islands with crystalline structures, but no moon, stars, or sun.
"Hello there little one? Do not fear, for the lost are found in this place." A disembodied voice spoke with a feminine and high tone.
"You are in a place of safety." The voice was smoothing, smooth as butter
A branch with golden bark wrapped around Sodo's soul and pulled him under. In a instant, he was in front of a massive tree. It had multiple fruit hanging from it's long branches and stems. Its glory blinded Sodo, while its mana power brought him on his face like a heavy weight. The bark was as yellow as gold. It shone like the sun in all of its brillance.
Ethernal animals, and Jian were gathered around the giant tree." Where Am I?" Sodo said in surprised tone as he was taken back at the godly glory of this bright tree.
"I have watched you since birth. Before you breathed the air of the Creator, I chose your line to be my champions." The light boomed with each word the tree spoke.
"Who are you!" Sodo exclaimed in fear as he crawled back to a spirit wall.
"I am the Tree Of Life, when the Creator brought your race forth, I held you all close like my children." The voice was like many voices speaking all at once.
"Do not fear my son. For you are one of my chosen. Yet, you must earn the power I will grant you. Partake of my fruit."
"I don't understand, why me, why not the prince, or the king." Sodo complained as this was a lot to take in.
"Why do you doubt child." The feminine voice blew Sodo back as the tree was irritated by his lack of faith.
"I am with you, eat of my fruit and be reborn." The tree extended its branches, and a spirit like fruit that was like an pear was upon it.
Sodo plucked the fruit from its stem , and bit a chuck out of it. Its blue juices ran down his throat as power ran through his soul.
In the mortal realm, it was night and the stars filled the night sky. The Koko manages to remove the sword, and heal the dark magic within him. Around them was a forest with massive tall trees, and plants of all kinds.
A rod materialized in the air, and jabbed Sodo in the stomach. He awoke coughing as he rolled over holding his stomach.
The Koko leaped back as she looked at the metal rod
The rod dropped on Sodo's legs as he looked up at his race's hated enemy, his enemy." Why did you save me?
The Koko regained her composure as she folded her two white feathery wings." Could be that this is a trap, or I am proving that I am better than my kind by saving your life. Here, just drink some ale." She grabbed the ice cold bottle of ale, and handed it to Sodo while rolling her blue sapphire eyes. Her golden blonde hair was silky and well kept. It shined with a degree of brightness
Sodo took the bottle, and chugged it. His cheeks blushed as he put the bottle down.
"My name is Eden, and will you do the kindness of telling me yours?" The Koko said as she sat down on the forest floor.
"My name is Sodo."
