Ascension of the Nephilim

In the borders of the Uninvolved Lands was a secret chamber deep underground. A seal was made to enclose this underground chamber, and only those of dragonic line could open it.

Inside was a Lesser Dragon.

While Lesser Dragons would have the strength of Champions and Commanders, this Lesser Dragon had the might of a Crown!

The lesser dragon clone is Pyrekaiser Fafnir. He sat at the place where he told his daughter he would wait should trouble come.

Next to him was a Crown. Yet her power had developed tremendously, and it was even believed that she could challenge Conquerors!

"You were... very quick to return here, Princess. Who exactly is this Kyros?"

"I want to say, my husband. But it seems that the rivals have increased. Your daughter is with him, right? From the words of my allies, I heard that Kyros was now an Incubus and had given in to his dark side. I'm not sure if I should pity or envy her." Listrel laughed.

Pyrekaiser frowned.

"Princess. If this Kyros has done anything to her-"

"You will do nothing. Right now, your Lesser Dragon clone is only a Crown. You will die if you face him. Even with your experiences. Trust me."

"You hold him in great regard."

"You have no idea what I've seen."

"You still won't tell us what happened. When you came back, many of us were horrified that we somehow forgot about you after thinking you were dead. We know it was a Corruption or a Code, and yet you deny it."

"It wasn't exactly Corruption. It was just the after-effect of what happened to me."

"Still... You speak of the grand war between Fate and Destiny but refuse to tell anymore."

"Because if I told you, it would create a ripple, and that god and that fallen would notice something. My father trusts me. That's all that matters."

"Still... if my daughter is in any form of-"

"I'm not hurt, father." Angelian suddenly appeared.

"What?!" Pyrekaiser exclaimed.

"How did you appear...! You escaped my senses!"

"Of course, she would. That was Oblivion, wasn't it? How did Kyros or Nightwing harness that...?"

"Princess Listrel." Angelian bowed and greeted the person in the higher position.

"Hm? You seem rather... joyful. Of course, those cursed with De-Heart won't be like that. I'm guessing you were healed." Listrel smiled.

"He-healed?!" Pyrekaiser exclaimed.

"Charm can break the coldest of hearts. You've also gotten stronger. Even at your level, you could take on Cardinals." Listrel smiled.

"I am still far from your strength, lady princess." Angelian then turned to her father.

"Father. I'm happy to see you. I guess I have a lot of apologies to make." Angelian smiled as she approached.

Pyrekaiser was stunned. He saw the cold-hearted daughter of his approach him with a warm smile.

The Lesser dragon form of Pyrekaiser was monstrous. Yet Angelian showed no disdain and held on to her father as she finally began to weep.

Pyrekaiser trembled.

"I should have sent... my main body here!" Pyrekaiser held back.

"De-Heart was removed? What did he do?" Pyrekaiser then glanced at her daughter.

"...You're still a... virgin, are you? Or have you given yourself to him?"

"Relax. I doubt those two will allow Kyros to get all handsy to the women. They would probably kill the girl even if he kissed them."

"We... did kill a Cardinal that way." Angelian nodded.

"Well... spill it out. You told us a message that he would be a double agent to help us kill Destiny. So what is the plan? Pyrekaiser told us that there is a gathering of aliens intending to attack the Midlands."

Angelian nodded.

"Yes. Lord Nightwing is with an Eldrich Breveros now."

"Breveros? The brother of the Eldrich king? That same man? This presents a good chance to kill him!"

"Oh? Interesting. Pyrekaiser. I use my authority to say to you. You cannot harm that man. He's an ally. I hope this Nightwing remembers."

"He has seen some vision. But I am under orders to only reveal things depending on what you know. He has forgotten the memories of Kyros and only sees a few bits. He has a few guesses and assumptions..." Angelian asked.

"Pyrekaiser. Leave us. We will call you back. There are things that you are not allowed to know. Those who have Mysterion or have vowed under his banner can know, but those of Fate and Destiny cannot know."

"As you wish." Pyrekaiser nodded and left the room.

"What's his guess?"

Angelian began to lay out his guesses and talked about how the Time God Calaminus created a world to be discarded and tried to fit Breveros into the world.

"As expected of Nightwing. He is still a part of Kyros. He's got it right. It was a world to be purged by fire. A world where Kyros fought what he said was the most frightening Fallen he faced. He is called Oblivion. Even I can't remember the real name. But that's what happened. As for the mystery of Kyros, he lived two lives." Listrel began to explain how the world they were in was the purging and disappearing timeline and fought a future form of Breveros.

"But, of course, he wasn't one of Destiny or Fate. So honestly, I'm not sure if Breveros should stand by our side."

"Destiny is limiting Breveros's powers. He was so strong that he would have competed with Bolerax. So Destiny made him very unlucky. It was a curse of great power. We easily defeated him because of his bad luck."

"I see... Destiny disowned him and made Breveros neutral... I guess that's alright. In any case, what plans does Nightwing have?"

"He needs the forces of Destiny to enter the Planesworld and fight his former allies. The goal is to kill as many forces of Destiny. We will ambush the team you send to fight the incoming aliens and kill them."

"I get it. Send a team of those who betrayed us in the future. I already have a list of those here in the Midlands. And I'll throw in someone from the Highlands. I'm sure Nightwing is strong enough to handle a few Conquerors now?"

"Yes, Princess."

"Good! Then our plan is set. By the way... How is Nightwing treating you? As Kyros, he was rather strict and stoic since his heart was still for Mechiel. But if Nightwing is the Fallen soul, I expected him to have more fun with you."

"...I did notice that he's slightly different. He wants to get close, but at the same time, I can't help but sense him trying to... push us away. He took drastic actions to draw us. But he... is never consistent."

"Oh? Well, given Mechiel's status as the true bearer of the Charmed Fallen, even if Nightwing is an Incubus, he can never break away from her chains. Tell him that. Kyros's allies are going after the legacy of the Charmed Fallen. I don't want Mechiel to win since I still want Kyros for myself. So tell Nightwing to get serious, or he will be toyed with by the Charmed Fallen."

While the two met, Martha, Aron, and Puff, in a lizardman form, left a carriage driven by orcs.

"Thank you, dear friend! Thank you for not selling us out." Aron chuckled.

"Thanks for saving me, taking care of my debt, and killing my pursuers. I will do as you suggest and head to that orc kingdom near Airom. But will you be alright? The Steele family best be careful in wandering the dark."

Aron turned to Martha, who was closing her eyes.

The power of the Dark Link resonated, and I searched for it.

Far away, in the Dark Seas kingdom, Lea was there and turned to the side.

"A member of the Coven? She's calling me..." Lea closed her eyes and responded to the call.

Martha opened her eyes.

"She found us. She seems to agree to meet with us."

Aron smiled and turned back to the orc.

"Don't worry, dear friend. We can travel through this darkness. Because we have friends in the darkness." Aron bid his farewell, and the three began to move out.

"...I sense several powerful dark powers zeroing in on my location." Puff reported.

"Oh? So the hidden powerful beings know that one with dragonic lineage is here?"

"Yes. It's proof that they have unknowingly taken the blessing of Lord Tiamat."

"Ignore Tiamat. It's going to be heavily guarded. We search for the Charmed Fallen. And with you as bait, we are going to have a lot of foes to train with." Martha moved onwards.
