Chapter 6- the settlement. part 13(Ch 31)

LINIAS and his group stood before a great crowd of people. In the foreground were Milion and Lilia , who knelt and those crowds followed in kneeling. Even the boy next to him did the same.




 




LINIAS felt a mixture of astonishment and amazement at their great number, since he thought they were not so many. And he thought: Did Milion tell them to bow, or perhaps they did it out of fear like that girl ? In both cases, it was a disturbing sight. He didn't like this spectacle, but he was fully aware that this world was doing it out of respect for their leaders. 




 




Isn't the residents of the castle enough for me and what they do to me.. Then these people will come too .. But . Perhaps I should say a word or something .. He sighed in his heart and said:




"Are they all here?"




 Million replied :




"Yes, Your Majesty. I have brought the people you brought about two months ago . " I have no knowledge of that.. Maybe that ship.. I wish I had asked Sirius for more clarification..




 Then LINIAS used magic to amplify his voice, and said in a strong, thundering voice that matched the appearance of the leader:




"You did well!" His voice echoed throughout the place. No one was surprised by that. It was a simple magic spell, and many of them could use it.




 He continued saying:




-"I have never been one of those who take the achievements of others and attribute them to themselves!! I despise and hate these people.. I say this so that you may know that I have never done anything to you.




 




It was my leaders who did that and brought you here. Some of you also know some of my leaders, like angus. This is one of my leaders. His name is Hicros! " He pointed to Hicros, and continued saying:




-"As for Entus, I think most of you know it. Yet. They are not mere followers but my comrades. My friends. My family. My beloved.. And all my clan. The clan of Vintos. It is a part of me. For those who do not know. I did to the miserable kingdom of Verna myself!..yes.I did it myself!.




 




I wiped them all in a matter of seconds! That might be cruel. That might be brutal. Yes that's right. I don't deny it.. but, look at yourselves carefully. Look at your deformities. 




Isn't this cruelty worse than death!




You all know that this is the reality of the world. Either you get crushed or you get crushed. The strong crushes the weak underfoot, because he is strong, and this is his right in this world!! Some of you.. no. you all know, that this world is cruel and brutal.. It does not even know the meaning of love, mercy, and kindness.




 Yes!. You are absolutely right. We are nothing but monsters pretending to be noble creatures. We are no longer in the world of peace and dreams.




We are in the animal world!! Monster fight. The weak shed tears begging for mercy, and the strong crushes them with ecstatic laughter.




But!!!!!. "




 




LINIAS let out a loud voice that made them shiver with a shiver, which crept down their skins, and continued saying: 




 




-"Know that you are no longer slaves..You are free since you came here..Citizens of this country.You are my people from now on. Whoever dares to harm my people, I will crush him under my feet!!! This is the duty of a leader to protect his followers. !!!".




 




 He was silent to look at the people around him. 




They were looking at him with bright eyes. luminous. It's all enthusiasm. He continued saying in gentle words:




-"But...I do not want you to be cruel beasts, but a loving and merciful people...and leave the cruelty to me and my followers. From now on, this land is no longer called the kingdom of Verna... but it is called Valia . And I , LINIAS  Vintos  , its ruler." 




There was not a moment of silence. Or even a moment of reflection in their minds. Rather, they all expressed their opinion on one thing. in one vote. in one cry.




Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! .




 A shriek that shook the ground erupted beneath their feet. women. men. youths . boys. children. Even Entus and Hicros screamed until their throats were torn. Everyone cried profusely. It was a cry from the depths of their souls, the cry for freedom they had longed for from the depths of their souls.




It never occurred to them that he was lying to them or deceiving them.




He doesn't need to do these things. They were rescued and brought here. All he has to do is make them his slaves if he wants to. They have been living on this land for dozens of years in freedom and peace. No one asked them for anything, or even spoke to them like slaves. 




 




Rather, they helped them with many things. They even gave them some horses. How could that man, the ruler of that imaginary castle, lie. The owner of those things that the mind does not believe.




He is now communicating with them. As if they are free. Without arrogance or arrogance. Is it possible. That the ruler stands on the same floor. where the slaves stand. No. Rather, he cannot stand as a ruler before his people in the same place.




For this they were crying profusely and warmly. For the first time in their lives, they felt that they were living beings who deserved life like everyone else.




 




The weeping women held their stunned sons together. The women hugged their husbands as they shed tears.




The men let out a moan from the depths of their souls. Young people put their hands on their faces to hide their crying. even so. They didn't stop screaming. LINIAS  Vintos  !!!!!. LINIAS  Vintos  !!!!!. Long live LINIAS  Vintos  !!!!!.  




LINIAS used the magic of flight, to soar into the sky, above the crowds. It was followed by Hicros and Entus . They vanished into the darkness of the night. LINIAS stared down and said:




- "They are really many? Can I do that once.. What do you think?"




Hicros replied : 




" I think you can..but, wouldn't it be better to make the followers do that? Or maybe we use the magic potions made by the professor?" 




 Followed by Entus  says:




-"He's right..you shouldn't use your magic on them."




LINIAS  said :




"Using followers in these things might make them upset. Also, using potions in this amount is completely wrong.. In fact, I need to know my strength, it will be like an experiment. If I fail, we will do as you told me, although failure will be embarrassing."




"These wretched ones do not know how fortunate they are to receive your mercy."




Hicros said :




"Don't you feel pity for these poor people?" .




She said :




- "Pity? , I am the one who needs pity, for hundreds of years, and I have been tormented and burned with caustic fire, and I am still tormented until now, but no one has mercy on me and no one has pity on me." LINIAS stared radiantly as x-rays. LINIAS rolled his eyes, and stared down anxiously.




  In fact. LINIAS did not understand what Entus said , for he thought that it was natural in her madness, and how else could she say that she suffers even now while standing before him.




He thought seriously that he would cure her mind soon as he now had a huge amount of insane spells, including mind magic. 




Hicros sighed .




 




"Stupid".




 




 LINIAS had set the distance in his mind, in preparation for the magic he would cast, of course the tenth layer magic would be like the previous spell. However, he must now double its size and power. Since he will be using this powerful spell, for the first time in his life. He felt excited.




 




His smile widened. He opened his arms in front of him, as if preparing to take a dear person in the arms. He didn't need to do that. But he felt that this situation corresponds to the imaginary state in which he is now. He unleashed his magic to the limit.




- ] Massive Magic – Great Healing ! [ And the sky shone 




That magic circle appeared above LINIAS' head . In an instant, it swelled and expanded until it obscured the entire sky of the area.




 LINIAS stared up at the sky, dumbfounded. He hadn't imagined it would be this big. But the symbols and slogans that were wrapped around themselves, made him even more astonished and bewildered. He knew these symbols perfectly. These symbols are the letters of the Arabic language . 




When he inquired about these letters, Hicros and Entus told him that these symbols were the symbols of the ancient language of magic .




 




 This answer made him flounder in a whirlpool of bewilderment and wonder.




 




He examined himself, and found that he had not lost as much magic power as he had expected. Rather, it seemed that he had lost something very little. He looked back down with a distracted, wandering stare. and muttered says:




"I don't understand anything anymore."




 




 




*******




 




Everyone looked at their new master, rising above their heads thanks to the magic of flying. Followed by his followers, and vanished into the night sky.




 




 lilia said , looking up at the sky.




"What does the master want to do? I mean the emperor?"




 Million replied :




-"I don't know...but he said he would cast a spell on everyone, as you heard before." Lilia approached and whispered in Million 's ear : 




-" But, this is ridiculous. This thing can't be done.. We are in the thousands. This is crazy, also why did it fly in the air?" 




 




Million replied, whispering anxiously:




"I don't know anything...but stop saying these things. You will bring disaster upon us with your foolishness."




 She said :




- "But. But- ". Lilia was about to speak, but her tongue and mind froze at what happened above her head.




 




Everyone held their breath, looking at the entire sky that shone with a beautiful white light. . Breathtaking splendor. For a moment there was silence in the place, and only the crackling of firewood was heard. And under the white light. Everyone looked like an army of skeletons . A woman let out a shriek. It sounded like a death cry. 




 




-"It's the moon. It will fall over our heads!!" It was as if that voice had awakened and scattered their souls, to spread chaos in the place. Some of them screamed. Some are crying. Some laughed out of fear. Mothers held their children in their chests, shedding tears that had turned into terrible fear.




 




Some scattered panicked scattered like rats. Some of them fled inside the buildings. The place became a complete mess.




Even so, they couldn't look away from the sky. Milion and lilia , and the people who had witnessed this earlier, were looking at the sky with eyes as wide as saucers. Their foreheads were sweating, and they were all smiling like crazy. If they hadn't seen that white circle before, they would have done the same as the people around them.




 




" Impossible! Who is this man!" A woman among them said, tears welling up in her eyes from the intensity of fear.   




A man followed her, saying: 




"The rumors are right! He's a monster!"




Another said, laughing hysterically:




- " As expected from the lord of monsters. the castle of Vintos!" 




 




Lilia said trembling, holding a million from behind like a baby: 




-"It's like a legend in ancient times. No wonder he annihilated Verna because she disgusts him." She held her throat in terror, and burst into tears, imagining the torment awaiting her from the savage emperor.




 




Million said :




- " He is the legend! He wasn't lying, he really annihilated Verna!"




  Everyone started glowing brightly.




They stopped what they were doing. They stared silently at those colors flowing from their bodies. And they forgot their fear at that moment, as they felt warm.




 




And everyone was cured. Everyone regained their previous intact bodies, even the black puddles evaporated and were no longer a trace. 




The incantation in the sky faded back to the darkness of the night. As if what happened moments ago was a strange illusion. But what happened to them was confirmation that what happened was an absolute truth.




 




Fear and crying changed to tears of joy and gratitude for their new master.




They all shrieked of gratitude, shedding tears again.
