A Journey That Changed The World.
Chapter 116 The Sadistic Loli & The Cunning Fox. [Bonus]
[The Northern Continent Frostwood - Aetheria Empire's northern border]
A young girl with short blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and a wicked smile on her beautiful face caught the attention of those around her.
She wore the military uniform of the Aetheria Imperial shock trooper, standing at a height of no more than four feet.
However, her mere presence unsettled those in her vicinity.
This girl was none other than Callista Aetheria, the third imperial princess of the Aetheria Empire, also known as The Death Maiden of the North.
Her love for war was evident, relishing in the exciting sensation of driving her blades deep into the hearts of her enemies.
As she drew her pair of short swords, pulsating energy radiated from their blades, causing them to tremble in her grip.
With an unsettling amount of excitement in her voice, she turned to the men behind her, her smile revealing her sharp teeth and her eyes gleaming with anticipation.
"Generals, this battle will soon be over. These northern barbarians stand no chance against us. They will rue the day they dared invade the Aetheria Empire and trample upon my father's benevolence."
Callista, with a mischievous smile on her face, began casting her favorite Enchantment spells.
First, she whispered the incantation. "Swiftstride Enchantment." Feeling the surge of energy course through her body.
She started chanting her spells like a mad woman, and that's when she heard the voices of the generals reach her ears, causing a playful giggle to escape her lips.
"Here she goes again." They whispered. "It's strange, but it undeniably works for her."
Undeterred, Callista continued her incantations, weaving her magic with practiced precision.
"Vitality Infusion, Ironskin Enchantment, Bladewalker's Grace, Lightning Reflexes, Fleetfoot Charm, Fortifying Aura, Reflexive Ward." She chanted, each spell stacking with the previous, enhancing her physical prowess and agility.
As each spell escaped her lips, a shimmering aura unfurled, surrounding Callista in a radiant display of enchantment's might. The very air crackled with the power she commanded.
Amidst the escalating chaos of battle, Callista's laughter echoed through the battlefield, an unhinged symphony of exhilaration and madness.
Unfazed by the looming danger, she flung herself off the hill, a streak of motion hurtling towards the horde of barbarians.
Her laughter filled the air, a symphony of madness, as she unsheathed her short swords and unleashed a relentless assault, annihilating any foolish soldier who dared to stand in her way.
A sadistic glimmer danced in Callista's eyes as she weaved through the ranks, her blades finding their targets with deadly precision.
Regardless of her petite stature, she proved to be a lethal force, reveling in each life she extinguished. The more lives she claimed, the greater her delight.
Her strikes aimed for vital points, executed with unerring swiftness, leaving behind a wake of vanquished adversaries.
With agility that defied logic, she became a whirlwind of destruction amidst the chaotic battlefield, cutting through the mass of men with uncanny dexterity.
Her blades sliced through leg muscles, toppling towering warriors to the ground, before swiftly dispatching them with a final, merciless strike.
As the battle raged on, Callista's gaze caught sight of a towering figure, a beautiful woman with silver hair and fiery orange eyes.
With each swing of her massive war hammer, soldiers crumbled and bones shattered, a path of carnage left in her wake.
The barbarian warrior mercilessly slaughtered numerous Aetherians while having a big smile on her flawless face.
Filled with a mix of excitement and determination, Callista sprinted towards the silver-haired woman, who noticed her approach.
In a voice filled with both joy and resignation, the barbarian spoke, her words tinged with anticipation.
"Calli, good to see you, girl. It's a shame we find ourselves on opposing sides, but let's make this fight memorable, shall we?"
Callista halted in her tracks, a wide smile stretching across her face as she recognized the woman standing before her.
With enthusiasm in her voice, she exclaimed. "Ayla! How have you been? Despite the circumstances, let's make this fight a good one!"
Both warriors exchanged smiles and prepared themselves as the chaos of battle raged on.
Seizing the initiative, Callista surged forward, evading Lagertha's initial assault with swift grace.
However, the seasoned warrior swiftly adapted, redirecting her attack toward Callista once again.
She skillfully evaded the second swing, narrowly escaping its impact. However, she found herself unexpectedly on the receiving end of a powerful kick.
The force sent her hurtling backward, momentarily disoriented but she was undeterred, Callista regained her composure as Ayla charged forward, her massive hammer arcing through the air.
Displaying lightning-fast reflexes, Callista evaded once more, her agile movements allowing her to counter with a quick slash aimed at Ayla's lower legs.
Much to her astonishment, Ayla skillfully wielded her giant hammer to deflect the attack.
Amidst their fierce exchange, both combatants laughed with exhilaration. Despite the absence of any decisive blows, they reveled in the thrill of battle.
As the clash raged on for an hour, the surrounding chaos seemed to fade into the background.
The tumultuous battle came to an abrupt halt as the barbarians, in retreat, began crossing back over Stormwatch Bridge.
As Ayla prepared to depart, she cast a final glance at Callista and spoke with a touch of wistfulness.
"That was quite a battle Calli. Hopefully, we'll cross paths again under more peaceful circumstances. Stay safe until then!"
With those parting words, Ayla disappeared into the distance, leaving Callista with a mix of satisfaction and longing to fight more.
[Eastern Continent - Orientia - The Kitsunia Kingdom]
Perched upon a balcony overlooking the capital city of Vulpes, a young woman with flowing golden hair and captivating red eyes added a touch of enchantment to the view.
With a graceful figure boasting perfect hourglass curves, she epitomized beauty in its truest form.
Her mere presence had the power to captivate, effortlessly commanding attention with her innate charm.
A blonde fox's tail swayed behind her as she planned a war on the neighboring human kingdom of Shadowthorn.
They had raided many Kitsunian towns and villages, so she devised a plan to lure the shadow army into a trap and annihilate them in a single attack.
She had used her spies to gather all the information on the humans, and her mother had given her command over the third army.
As she was deep in thought, a maid interrupted her thoughts. "Princess Himiko, the Queen wishes to see you," the maid bowed and quickly retreated.
Himiko rose to her feet and gracefully made her way toward her mother's study. The path was short, and soon she found herself standing before a beautifully decorated door.
She tapped gently on the door, and a seductive voice beckoned her inside, saying, "Enter my little fox."
Rolling her eyes, Himiko pushed open the door and entered the room. Inside, her mother sat at the desk, engrossed in paperwork, yet still exuding an irresistible charm.
With her perfect curves, slender waist, and thick thighs, she effortlessly charmed anyone who caught sight of her.
Himiko couldn't help but feel jealous of her mother's figure, as she noticed the sway of her mother's massive chest with every subtle movement.
Clad in an exquisite white and black Kimono, her light brown hair was elegantly styled in a bun, accentuating her refined beauty.
Her name was Akane Kitsunezaki, the Queen of the Kitsunia Kingdom. She looked up at Himiko with glowing red eyes and smiled warmly.
"My little fox, when do you leave? Have you planned everything? Do you have enough soldiers?" She inquired, her concern evident.
Returning her mother's smile, Himiko reassured her. "Yes, Okaasan, everything is prepared, and I will be departing shortly."
Akane smiled upon hearing that her youngest pup was ready to confront and defeat the loathed Shadowthorn kingdom.
She shook her head and addressed Himiko with concern. "Be careful, little fox. You are my youngest pup, and I would be devastated if anything were to happen to you."
Himiko's smile widened as she appreciated her mother's honesty. To everyone else, Akane appeared as an ice queen, cold and calculating.
She was the epitome of a perfect queen for the Kitsunia Kingdom, and she had been preparing her oldest pup, Natsumi, to inherit the throne.
Unlike her other pups, Akane granted Himiko more freedom. She wanted her to experience the real world and not be confined to the life of a spoiled princess.
Himiko walked toward her mother and gave her a hug and said. ''I shall see you soon Okaasan. I have the mana mirror so you can contact me anytime.''
Akane embraced her daughter tightly, reluctantly letting go as she understood Himiko's need to depart.
"Farewell, my dear little fox." She whispered with a mix of pride and concern.
Himiko embarked on her journey, making her way to the town of Suncreek, where she had meticulously planned an ambush for the approaching Shadowthorn army.
Utilizing her network of spies, she spread deliberate misinformation, sowing the belief that the queen herself would be inspecting the border defenses in Suncreek.
The ploy worked flawlessly, as the Shadowthorn army fell into Himiko's trap, their ranks decimated with only a few hundred survivors left, destined to be enslaved.
The battle unfolded heavily in Himiko's favor, as she combined her formidable mind magic with her mastery of fire, unleashing chaos upon the enemy forces and providing her own soldiers with a decisive advantage.
However, she was well aware that this marked the beginning of a prolonged war that would endure for years to come.
