Overlord Blaze

Stage four grand gather part two

Blaze pov

Three days have passed, and the others have not yet been discovered. I had struck the deal I told the crystal pony about with the royal families. The deer king had given me a headache when I told him of what I had done in his country. I was sure by the time I had returned my spell had traveled all over his kingdom. By now the females would have freed themselves by now and if they wanted to enslave the males. There was nothing to stop them from doing it if they wanted to but I digress. Now, I was lying in the royal garden with Nidra and my two future death guards.

“What are you up too?”

I leaned my head back some and saw Nidra standing over me. I stuck my tongue out as she laughed. I did another quick once over her body and smiled. ‘I can’t wait to see what your corrupted form looks like.’ She kneeled down as she talked to me.

“Since the royalty of the world are doing the looking for you think we can do something together?”

I smiled as I looked her in the eyes. “You want to go on another date don’t you?” She blushed as I laughed under my breath. I turned over then jumped to my feet then looked at her. “You know that sounds nice. Where you want to go this time Nidra?” She played with a rock on the ground as she looked at me.

“I was hoping to go to the flower fields outside the city for a picnic.”

I nodded then grabbed her hand making her blush more. We walked to the kitchen in the castle, and I made us lunch. Nidra had asked a maid to get us a picnic basket. The maid did, but I noticed something about her. It was only there for an instant, but I saw her yellow eyes turn green, and her orange fur around her eyes turned black and looked smooth. As she walked away, I tagged her with a piece of my magic. ‘She could be used with that kind of magic powers.’ Nidra and I left the castle on Kayda back not five minutes later with Kayda asleep on a pile of rocks as we set up for our picnic.

What did you make us?”

I smiled as I laid the blanket out. “I’ve made sandwiches, with some cookies and I snuck this out.” I pulled a bottle of wine out, and Nidra looked at me wide-eyed.

“I’ve never had wine before.”

I raised an eyebrow and looked at the bottle then at her again. “Are you not old enough?” She nodded her head as she looked at me

“No I am, mother and father just never let me have any before. Are you sure you won’t get in trouble for just taking it?” I smiled then opened a gate and pulled out a jug with a brown top and white bottom. “We could all drink some moonshine.”

“What is moonshine?”

“Illicitly distilled or smuggled liquor I got from my old buddy that I killed. It was illicitly distilled because so many kings and queens hated that they couldn’t make the world’s best liquor. This is my favorite drink after a mission me Rossy and Rakshasa all of us would go and make a fire and drink until we couldn’t see straight.” I pulled a glass out and filled it halfway looked at her. “I’m not going to force you to drink it, but I did bring you some juice.” She smiled and laughed as she took the glass moonshine from my hand.

“I’m a big mare Blaze.”

I smiled as I took another glass out and filled it. “It’s going to burn at first, so you know…”

“Hm!”

She spits it out as she tried to take a large gulp of it. I laughed as she coughed fro the drink and I pulled out a few bottles of water. I opened one and handed it o her. She took the bottle and downed it to stop the burning feeling in her throat from the drink. I laughed a little as she looked at me not finding it as funny.

“It’s not funny!”

She puffed her cheeks out as I continued to laugh.

“Shut up!”

She threw the half-empty bottle of water at me, but I lean to the right making it missed me. I stopped after that and looked at Nidra red face. “Ok, ok I had my fun now let's eat our lunch.” She smiled then we started to eat the sandwiches.

“Say, Blaze, are you going to summon the rest of the ten beasts?”

I looked at her then sighed. ‘Humsake I’m going to turn you into a rug!’ I scratched the top of my head as I looked at her. “I don’t know Nidar. Some of them are a little on the large side. I mean I have a few that can change size at will but only a few.”

“Can I see a few of them?”

I looked at her then tried to think of a few anime animals that I could use. “Well, I guess I have one who would kilala is her name. She’s Firefox with the ability to use fire, and she can fly slowly to the ground.”

“Can you summon her?”

I held my left hand out then created a magic circle to create another magic beast or demand as she is. I made a circle formed with five circles inside the middle of the spell circle. Then a small ball of fur jumped out of the center.

“Blaze?”

I watched as a fox with yellow and black fur and star yawned as she stretched then looked

She walked over to me with her tails swiping from side to side. She let out a cute little yelp then jumped into my lap then purred as I scratched her head. Nidra reached over to pet her but she looked at her, and she hissed and tried to scratch her hand. “Hey you play nice now, she’s a very good friend, so you need to get used to her.” Kilala looked up at me then puffed as she rubbed her head against my stomach. My right eye twitch as I looked down at her. I pitched her up by the scruff of her neck then made her face Nidra. “Look she may be new, but I promise that she’s a lovely girl. Besides someday she may be my wife and if you're going to start being nice.

“Blaze I think she’s mad.”

I turned her head and made her looked at me. She growled and hissed at me. “Oh, is that the game you want to play. No, fish for the next month do I make myself clear?” She balled up then gave me the big eyes. I gave her my best poker face as she looked at me. “We both know that doesn't work on me.” She sniffed then Nidra swiped her from my hand.

“Don’t worry I’ll get you all the fish you want.”

Nidra hugged her into her chest as she rubbed her head. I rolled my eyes as I patted my left shoulder. Kilala wiggled free then jumped onto my shoulder and got comfortable. “Well, I may as well bring the whole gang here.” I held my right hand up then created seven more circles. ‘Seven more beasts, what should I make?’

The first beast to come out of a monster made of trees and vines. For hands, it had large roots that looked like they could be used as claws if they had to be. For a face, it looked as if it was wearing a mask with a hole in the middle of the forehead for face.

“Grove ancient spirits that protect children that are lost in the forest. He fights and destroys other evil wood monsters then adds them to his body to grow stronger. He may look scary but his a gentle giant of nearly 25 meters.” Another beast walked out of the second portal.

“Glacier King, the guardian of my sacred weapon Faithkeeper. His main body is made of super-density that can’t melt or be broken. The stone on his body is the same thing as Gargantua he is as tall as Gargantua about 30 meters tail.” Another beast come through a portal.

“Longfang, a 10-meter demon tiger a rare beast that is only seen by those who have been to the demon realm. We when I first visited my old friends home I fought and beat this beast. She followed me back through the portal, and I’ve kept her as a summons or a pet if you want to think of it that way.” Another beast walked through the fourth portal.

.

“Sun, a 15 meters tall entity that I restored by giving life to magic made fire. Once a servant to the first grand wizard king. He was made by using a phoenix feather and fire from the sun. I try to keep him from getting mad. When he gets angry, his flames will get out of control.” At this point, I’ve given up on making look as I want. Just letting my magic make things of the undead variety.

“Reaper, a nine-meter-tall windigo an undead monster that I had to take command of after helping it. It tried to kill off of my friends when we were storming the undead castle. It nearly bit my right arm off when used a spell to fix it’s damaged mind. Once I healed its mind of the of being in an evil land.”

“Heavy Armor, 50-meter mini mountain turtle. The largest of my ten beasts. The shell on his back is of the highest density and is near indestructible even through magical mean. Makes him the perfect defense type monster in all existence.”

“Small Claw, a three-meter tail bear owl with razor-sharp claws. I fought him a long time ago when I was fifteen. He is the last of the ten beasts I’ve gathered over my life. So, now that you’ve seen them what do you think Nidra?” I looked at her, and she was hiding behind me as the beast all stared down at us.

“You lied! they're not huge; they’re ginormous!”

I laughed then jumped into the air and left her in front of all my beast. Reaper was the first to move towards her. It had a long bone like arms and legs as and walked on all fours as it walked over to her like an animal. It walked over to her and sniffed her a few times then looked out at me. It growled as it looked at me then walked around her a few times then laid down around her and rested its head beside her legs. All the other slowly made they’re way to her and or laid down around her as I floated down to her. She looked around her as Reaper looked up at me. “I know, I know. But she is not my mate, more like my girlfriend I guess you could say.” Nidra consciously touched his skull head as he rested his head at my feet.

“It doesn’t look like windigo’s that are from the far north. What I’m having the most trouble with is the fact monsters surround me, and none of them are attacking me. All of them are just waiting to be petted and maybe even loved on.”

I laughed as Longfang pawed at the ground beside me. I looked at Nidra then at me then nodded his head to the side. “Maybe in the future but not right now. I don’t think me or her are ready to be a mother or father.” Nidra laughed as she leaned into my side with Reaper and Kilala both wanted to be petted. I wrapped an arm around her as Small Claw laid behind us and let us rest on his. His fur was a nice mix of hair and feathers which made for a great body pillow.

“Hey Blaze.”

“Ya Nidra?”

She looked up at me with a smile. “Do you mean what you said that day? That if you got to know me romantically, then you’d think about marrying me.”

I nodded then rubbed her arm as she leaned deeper into my side and rested her head on my shoulder. “Ya, I meant it. I planned on proposing soon too.” She laughed as she petted Kilala’s head.

“I know what your old life was like for the most part. But, I have to ask you something.”

I looked down at her, and she moved her hand from Kilala’s head and to my cheek. She made both of them move as she resat herself on my crotch. I looked at her as she placed her other hand on my other cheek.

“Do you want to start sleeping in the same room with me?”

I blushed as she moved her lips close to my lips. She pressed her lips to mine as I screamed in my mind. ‘WHAT THE FUCK!? I HAVE NO EMOTIONS!?’ I kissed her back a little when I heard someone yell.

“NIDRA!”

She pulled back, and the beast jumped up. Reaper and Kilala both stayed with us as the others set a perimeter around us. I looked around and saw the royal family looking at us. I rubbed the back of my head as Supernova and Luan glared at us. I laughed as I waved the ten beasts down. “Hey everyone, how are you all doing?” Luna’s left eye twitches as she looked at me.

“Fine until a group of giant monsters appears outside the city. Now, what was that we just saw and heard?”

I gulped as I started to cast the fly spell as I held Nidra. “That was um, BYE!” I took off into the air with Nidra in my arms laughing.

Four hours later Nidra pov

Blaze and I sat on top of Heavy Armor’s shell. He had taken the valley right under the mountain as his home while he slept. Blaze said the vast majority of the time he is asleep. Blaze said his kind could go for hundreds of years without eating or drinking anything. The other beast had also taken up places around the castle to protect the city. I laid my head on his thigh as he played with magic in his hand. I looked up at his as the magic split into two equal orbs. “What are you making Blaze?” The spheres split again and four metal objects that look they would fit in both hands.

“I have a magic skill called create greater item. With it, I can make or recreate items I’ve seen. Right now, however, I’m trying to recreate a weapon called a gun to fire magic bullets. I’m making us both a twin set.”

I watched as the items finished. I saw four identical weapons that looked strange. The body of the gun was black with a silver piece in four different places.

Blaze grabbed one from the air and pointed it at the ground beneath us. He put his finger through a hole the squeezed down. An exploding sound came from the gun in his hand, and a ball of red magic fired from the gun. It concluded with the ground, and a column of fire shot up from the ground. I jumped up as he spun the gun on a finger as he looked down at the ground.

“Looks like only a second tear spell. Oh well, I made it so you could use these as well so I guess fourth tear spells are the highest it can go. That would be enough to stop most any undead or most anything out there.”

He created a pelt with two items that looked like it would hold the guns. He put two in them then stood up and waved for me to get up. I stood up then he wrapped the belt around my waist, and he made it tight so the belt wouldn’t fall.

“The safety is on the side and keep it on when you're not using them. If one goes off by accident, it could kill someone or destroy something.”

He did the same, and now we both had guns on our sides. “Alright, but you never answered my question.” He looked at me with a slight blush on his cheeks as he rubbed his arm.

“Nidra, I’m going, to be honest with you. I’ve never laid with a woman or in this case mare. You’d be the first, and I’m not sure if can.”

I held a hand up, and he stopped talking. I blushed as I rubbed my hand on my arm. “Well, I wouldn't ask about that sleeping. I just wanted to sleep beside you like normal mares get to do with there stallions.” I looked at him, and he smiled then walked over to me. He wrapped his arms around me and ran a ran down my back. I rested my hands on his chest and rested my head on his shoulder.

Blaze pov

I smiled as I had Nidra in the palms of my hands now. Then I heard the message spell activate. I let her go then wrapped my hands around my head and Nidra grabbed her cheek. I answered the call spell and heard Sebas’s voice.

‘Sir Blaze, the most of the heroes have been found and are one the way to the castle. They will be there in a few hours. There are three missing from the group. The changelings, Demons, and alicorns. I believe that the queens are hiding then not wanting them in this unit.’

I frowned as I looked over the forest. ‘Sebas I want you to come and speak to me at the castle. Make sure your seen and they know your non-hostile.’

‘Yes Sir, Blaze.’

I turned to Nidra as she looked at the castle. “Let’s head back and figure out which room was sleeping in tonight.” Nidra smiled as she walked over beside me and I grabbed her hand as I cast the fly spell. Kilala jumped onto my shoulder as we started to fly to the castle. We landed on castle grounds, and guards waved to us as we walked through the halls.

“Don’t you seem nice and cozy Nidra.”

He wore a red shirt, sunglasses and a coat with blue fur. I looked at him and kept my free hand near my right side gun. “Hello Discord, do you need something?” He ignored me and talked to Nidra.

“Nidra sweetie, everyone need to see you and him.”

I narrowed my eyes at him then before I could say anything Nidra spoke.

“He has a name use it or doesn’t bother addressing Blaze or me.”

I smiled as she stood by me. But, this also seemed to make Discord slightly angry that she stood against him. He huffed in annoyance and waved for us to follow him. Nidra hugged my arm into her chest as we walked behind him. I rested my hand on my right gun as I waited for him to try something. We walked to the throne room and saw the whole family with two new ponies with a baby in the stallions arms. The stallion was a unicorn with white fur with blonde mane and tail. He was dressed in a black suit with a blue bow tie. The mare was a unicorn as well. The mare was in a shirt that showed her shoulders with a pair of tight shorts on. Her mane and tail were a light pink I would say was a pretty shade of pink.

“Nidra!”

“Miss Spin!”

The mare yelled as she ran over to Nidra and Nidra let me go to hug her. I watched on as the embraced each other. I looked over to the new stallion and the baby it I guess they would call them foals. Either way, she looked weak no maybe sickly would be the better word. She was small and was very thin as if it never had any milk from the mother or replacement milk. I walked over to the stallion still looking at the young foal.

“Is something wrong?”

I looked him in the eyes as I pointed to the foal. “Something happened during the pregnancy right?” He looked down at the foal tears forming in his eyes. The mare walked and over wrapped an arm around him and rubbed a hand over the foals head.

“She was born too early and just survived the first month. The doctors said she’d be lucky to live to the age of two.”

They both had tears in their eyes now, and I felt sorry for the filly. I looked closer and saw she had trouble as well. I smiled as I held a hand out to them. “I may be able to help her if you’d like. My healing magic skill level is very high. My specialty is in healing the body of any disease or ailment. I may be able to heal her to extend that would lengthen in her life. But, I can’t tell you how long she may live.” Both of them looked at me with hope in their eyes.

“Can you do that?!”

The mare yelled hopeful I could do something. The foal started to cry as the stallion rocked her to try and calm her down. I laughed as I used my magic to make a light butterfly. It was different the ones I made for the doe’s. This was a spell I made. A see-through butterfly with a gold edge and gold spots on its wings formed on my index finger.

“Nine tear healing spell, healing fairy.” The butterfly fly from my finger and flipped over to the filly and landed on foals nose then turned to dust. It covered the filly in a golden aura, and the changes were clear immediately. A mane of pink and blonde matching her parents. She gained weight quickly, and her breathing improved at once. A tail matching her hair fell from the blanket she was wrapped in. She stopped crying, and I finally saw her eyes. Her eyes were a bright purple which I thought was pretty.

“No way…”

The stallion looked down at the filly as the spell also helped her fall back to sleep. The mare was crying as she rubbed the filly’s head. I smiled as I walked passed them to the royalty I knew. All of them looked at me shocked as they looked at me. “What just happened aside what did you all need?” Celestia nodded then the other’s snapped out of it.

“Right, my husband believes you are a real threat. He believes that you are going to use this unit to take over the kingdom.”

I laughed as I looked down at the ground. I rubbed my chin as I looked back up at him. “Is that the game you want to play with me Discord? I knew I’ve seen your kind bore and you know I’m sad to see power hungry people in this world.” He dropped his smiled as he glared at me. I smiled as held a hand out. “Tell you what, we play a magic game made to punished anyone who lies when asked a question. Both you and I will play with a third-party who will make the rules but one. This game has one set rule even I can’t change.”

“And that would be?”

Luna asked as Supernova glared at Discord. I smiled as I looked at Discord. “For each lie, the punishment gets worst. I have nothing to hide so I’m more than happy to play or maybe you have something to hide.”

“N-no I don’t.”

We all looked at him as he hesitated for a brief second.”

I smiled as I now had him. I held a hand out, and he quickly grabbed my hand when Celestia and his son looked at him. A star spell circle formed on both sides of our hands

“What the!?”

On both our hands a two-layer square formed with eight lines with symbols on all them. In the center was a circle with the yin-yang symbol for balance in the middle.

I let his hand go then looked at my hand. “Um, never though a spell meant to be used in a courtroom would be used on me.” I looked at Luna, and she looked back at me. “Would you be the third-party asking the questions.” I held my hand up and let her see the circle. “There have to be three rule not counting the punishment rule. Now, as for the questions. There have to be nine questions in this game. The question can range from simple to anything personal, and we have to answer the questions. There is no getting out of answering any of these questions.” Luna smiled as she looked at Discord. She sat down on the steps as she spoke.

“The first rule, you have to answer the questions in thirty seconds. Second rule, No attacking one another while the game is in play. Rule three, no using magic unless I permit it first.”

When she finished giving her rules, the spell activated and I sat down on the floor.

“Ok, the first question is, have either of you planned to harm the members of the royal family?”

I smiled as I answered her. “Not once.”

“No, AHAHAH!*

The moment the word no left his mouth a thunder spell hit him. We watched as the thunder spell ended and he dropped to the ground smoke coming from his go-t. I kneeled down and looked at him. “You know, lying on the first question is going to make the next one worst right?” He looked up at me with anger as I rested my arms on my knees. He got to his knees as I stood back up.

“Next question Luna!”

He angrily spoke as I watched him get to his feet.

“Ok, Second question. DId you want or ever want to have foals?”

I blushed as Nidra looked at me as I looked away. “Yes, I have given the idea some though.” I smiled as Nidra and she blushed too. I shock my head then looked at Discord who was sweating a little. Both Celestia and Illusion looked at him.

“Dad?”

Discord didn’t say anything then Luna started to count.

“7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1… 0”

Another punishment hit Discord in the form of a pillars of stones shot from the ground and walls. He was hit from multiple angles. I grimaced as he threw up his lunch from the stone that hit him in the gut. I looked at Luna and she and everyone else looked at at him. The next seven questions were similar to the last to but he told the truth on three of them. Those questions being. Do you love your family, Do you want what’s best for them and would you give your life for them. He answered those truthfully, but the way Celestia and Illusion looked at him. They were angry and Celestia locking him out of their room definitely was a bad sign. Illusion locked himself in his room. I was happy i didn’t have to lie once good thing too. I had to make both of us have the same punishment to make it believable. Now I was hiding and to help with that I cast a spell to hide my magic signature just in case Discord tries attacks me. I hide myself on the top of the castle while I watched for Sebes or the coming heros.

“You sure made it hard to find you Blaze. Using magic to hide your presence was a very good idea.”

I turned my head and saw Kayda standing behind me at a third of her height. She walked over to my side and laid down beside me. She rested her head on my lap and I rubbed her head. “So, how are the others?”

“The others are all waiting for your orders. Reaper also said that a strange energy is coming from the city.”

I rubbed her head as I watched then train station and what I think was a airship landing bay.

“Where is he!?”

I heard Supernova’s voice and rushing hoofs. Kayda lifted her head and I stood up and walked over to the edge of the roof. I looked over the edge to see what was going on. The solar and Lunar guard were running around armed to the teeth.

‘Sir Blaze I’m outside the castle and the guards have surrounded me. What would you like me to do?’

I smiled as I jumped off the edge of the roof and dropped to the ground below. When I landed a dust cloud was kicked up and the guards looked at me. I waved as I looked at them. “I heard yelling so anyone want to tell the Lunar captain what is going on?” Two of my guards ran up to me and stood at attention.

“Sir! The head butler of the tomb of nazarick has shown up at the main gate of the castle. He is asking to speak with you Sir!”

I blinked then summoned my coat and put it on. “Let’s go see what he wants.” I started to walk for the gat and the guard formed a line behind me with spears at the ready. While I walked the royal family ran out and saw me walking to the gate. Nidra ran up to me as I stood in behind a line of guards in front of the gate. In front of them was Sebes with his hands behind his back looking at the guards around him.

“Is Sir Blaze here or not?”

I walked through the guards as the stood aside for me. I stood in front of Sebes, and he bowed one arm on his chest the other still on his back.

“Sir Blaze it is good to see you again. I’ve come to ask a favor of you?”

I smiled as I saw that he had come up with a plan of his to help mine. I crossed my arms behind my head as I looked at him. “Let me guess Shalltear Bloodfallen wound right?” He stood back up then nodded.

“No, Sir Blaze. Her wound is almost healed anyhow. No, what I want to ask of you is to bring our master back to life. We know you know you know how to use revive magic. If the living sacrifice is a problem, we can gather criminal on death row from countries with the death sentence.”

I sighed as I let my arms fall to my side. “I know the spell, but I can’t use it. I made a seal that would kill me instantly if I or someone controlling me tried to use that spell. Besides, it’s one of the ten forbidden magic.”

“But, as the wizard king, you have the right to learn and control any magic you see fit to control.”

I shrugged my shoulders as he looked at me.“ I may have learned them as the grand wizard king, but even I won’t use them. I can’t use any of them because of the seal.” He looked me in the eyes then turned and started to walk away.

“I see, well I’m not stupid enough to pick a fight with you, Sir Blaze. But, I will give you a warning. Two of our strongest will attack this city in a few months. Be ready for death Sir Blaze.”

I smiled as I looked at his back. “Tell Demiurge I looked forward to it, and this time were playing for keeps.”

‘Very well, Please all of you have a good day.”

He vanished and all the guards dropped to the ground. I sighed then turned and started to head back into the castle. “I have to the heroes ready as soon as I can.” I jumped into the air and Kayda flew down and I landed on her back.

“Blaze wait!”

I heard Celestia yell as Kayda flew us back to the place she found me.

“Blaze, Kayda wait up!”

I turned my head and saw Nidra trying to keep up with Kayda. I patted her head and she stopped and flapped her wings to keep us in the air. “Do you need something Nidra?” She landed on my lap and hugged me. Kayda stated to fly to the top of the castle again as Nidra rubbed her cheek on my chest.

“Don’t hide from me ever again Blaze.”

I sighed as I wrapped my arm around her. “I just wanted to stay out of the way incase Discord was going to go crazy. I know I could take him, but I don’t want to fight if I don’t have too.” Kayda landed, and we got off her back.

“Blaze, what are you going to do? What the man just said. Can you bring the dead back to life?”

I sat down, and Nidra sat in my lap again. I wrapped my arms around her as she snuggled into my chest. “Yes, I can but like I said I placed a seal on myself to kill me if the forbidden spells. Those spell should have been made, but I still had to learn them. To calm my title as the Grand Wizard King I had to master all the spells in the history of the twenty-nine grand Wizard King’s before me.” I rubbed her arm and looked up at the sky. “Nidra, what would you do if I was to die?” She stiffened in my arms then wrapped her arms around my chest and rested her head on her shoulder.

“I don’t know what I would do. You became my first real friend, my best friend and I even fell in love with you Blaze. I want you to stay with you as long as I can.”

I just held her in my arms. My resolve to take over this world would not change for anyone or anything but, I don’t want to hurt her. I… I… I’m falling in love with her but how? I hugged her with a hand on the back of her head. “I love you, Nidra; I know it may be too soon to say that, but I do.” She turned her head and looked at me. She smiled as she looked at me.

“Blaze… I’m so happy to hear that.”

She leaned up and kissed me again. I hugged her close as we kissed and she grabbed the back of my coat. I rubbed her wings, and she pulled her lips back. She laid her head on my shoulder, and she closed her eyes as I heard someone.

‘Master they are coming.’

I heard a voice woman’s voice, so I had to guess it was Longfang. ‘How many of them are there?’

“ten with the mark, the rest are royalty and heavily armored guards. All and all I’d say about a hundred. They're taking a hidden path in the forest north of the capital. Would you like me to escort them or you like to come yourself?”

I sighed as I picked Nidra like a bride. “Longfang sees the heroes and the royalty, so we need to go.” I turned my head and whistled for two of the beast. Sun and Reaper both jumped down onto the top of the castle roof.

“Master…”

“Master…”

I was surprised when I heard Reaper spoke and raspy voice. Fire erupted from suns mouth as I jumped off the roof with them behind us. Reaper was on my left and Sun was one my right. Nidra screamed with her arms wrapped around my neck as we jumped from building to building. We jumped over the edge of the city and headed for the forest to the north. Sun rode down on a steam of fire and Reaper ran down the side of the mountain one all fours leaving claw marks on the mountainside. I fell straight to the ground and slammed down into the ground leaving a ten-meter deep crater from my landing. “Let’s move!”

“Master!”

We dashed to the forest and Nidra kept her head on chest and a firm grip on the first of coat. We entered the forest after five minutes of running. Longfang ran up beside us. I hopped onto her back. Nidra sat herself down in front of me as she ran.

‘Master we are almost to them. Do want us all to show ourselves?’

‘Yes, all of your with me are to saw yourselves I still need the kingdoms to want hostility against Equestria. See they have so powerful beast under ‘their’ command will make exceedingly uneasy.’

‘Very well master.’

I looked forward as we burst through the trees onto a road full of guards and carriages. I dismounted Longfang then walked toward them. Reaper followed on my left on all four his claws fully extended. I walked up to the leader of the head group. It was a young looking blue dragon. He had spikes up and down his back, tail and on his elbows. Two horns were set on his head with what looked like natural armor on his forehead and chest. On his right shoulder was our mark.

“Who are you?”

I pulled my coat around and he saw the back of the coat. His eyes widened as he looked at the sword and axe.

“You must be Blaze. The king has told me and my family much of you and the heroes.”

I looked to the right and saw a minotaur. He was in silver armor and had what looked like glowing blue eyes. His mark was forehead just under his helmet.

“So, your the one I owe for avenging my brothers death.”

I looked up and saw a black griffin in the air above us with a longbow. He flew down to me and held a hand out. His mark was on top of the hand he held out to me.

“Names skysearch, my brother was killed by Demiurge and seeing you put a hole in his gut made our family much happier.”

I grabbed his wrist and we shook hands. “Sorry to say but I’m sure he’s still kicking somewhere. I’ve fought him enough times to know that he won’t go down that easily. I’ve seen him take some really damage and walk away from it.” The rest of the carriages opened and thirteen other heroes walked over to us.

A female Zebra with a long handle battle axe. If I was being honest she was nice to look at. Her mark was on her neck.

A buff male tiger with a five foot long sword and what looked like leather gloves on. He was wearing a skirt of some kind and had badges wrapped around his forelegs. He had the mark on the left forearm.

A gorilla with strange looking armor on his left arm and right leg. He had an axe on his back and a axe with a three foot long handle on it. It’s clear he had a lot of power if his arm and shoulders had anything to say about it. His mark was in the middle of his chest. Next was a cheetah woman with a cape and trible rags. She had bright red hair with a sickle sword and rings around her arms and ankles.

She walked over to me and started to sniff me. I tried to back up but she grabbed my coat and took a deep breath.

“I like that smell, like you just walked through a flower field.”

She let me go and I quickly stepped back to Longfang and Nidra. Nidra jumped down and grabbed my arm as she glared at her. The cheetah swung her tail back and forth with a smile on her face.

“Relax Princess, He just smelt strange so I wanted a better smell.”

I laughed as I took another step back from her. She turned and walked back to her carriage and I saw the mark on her lower back. Behind her was a ox like warrior with twin swords on his had gold on leather straps around his chest and arms. He was wearing a pair of pants with cut marks that looked like they were for counting. His mark was on his right shoulder.

“You looked tougher in really life then in the story I’ve heard of you.”

Two more came up and they looked like they were tougher than the rest.

Both carried a sword and axe. They both had the mark on the left bicep and the looks in their eyes. These two look like I’d had to teach them who the alpha is. I looked around then to the sky again. “Where are the others?” All of them looked at me and I looked back at Nidra. Where are the Changelings and Demons? They live on this world as well. They have a large population so they need to have a representative just like everyone standing in front of us.” She turned her head and counted the people in front of us.

“Your right the group is two short with the other at the castle there will be fifteen altogether. But, What about the Draconequus, the alicorns and bat ponies?”

I crossed my arms and sighed. “I cut the spell when I woke up for those races. The Draconequus and alicorn races are of the royalty of the world giving them a representative don’t make much sense because of that. As for the bat ponies your father is the king of the night so I will count him as a member without the mark. Even if he is a member of a royal family. The three tribes of ponies will not have heros ether because one no members of the tribes were chosen and the three tribes have the elements so one of each will appear to represent them.”

“I guess you have a point. Plus, You said they all have a large population. As for my father, I don’t think anypony would make a better member of the group. As for the other two, I think the changelings still live in the wastelands as for the demons. There sealed away in tartarus and the only way to get in there is to get through cerberus.”

I rolled my eyes as I waved a hand in the air. “Fight past a over ground puppy is that all?” I turned to Sun and Reaper. “You to go to the wastelands and find the Changeling hero. Nidra will be taking you to the castle and I’m going to get the demon hero.” They nodded and took out to the west. I turned back and looked at the heros. “I guess names should be shared right?” The dragon walked over and nodded.

“Yes, I’m call Dracon. The minotaur is Alexander the fifth. You meet Skysearch already. The three of us meet not to long after our marks appeared. I believe the ox’s name was Kvigr.” I nodded as I looked at the rest of them. ‘The rest of you can tell me your names after I return with the demon hero.” I turned and Nidra pointed to the north.

“There a cave under the farthest mountain to the north. You’ll find the gate there but you’ll have to get through Cerberus.”

I smiled as I turned and waved. “I’ll be back for dinner.” I cast the fly spell and started to fly for the mountains.

‘Sir Blaze under you.’

I looked down and saw Demigure, Sebes and Cocytus in the forest. I landed and looked at them.

“You all coming to help? Or has something interesting happened?” Sebes bowed as he looked at me.

“Yes Sir, a group of nobles with in the city that want to use you and the group your building. What would you have us do Sir Blaze?”

I crossed my arms as I looked at them. “Leave them be for right now. If they become a problem tell the maids their free to kill the group. Now I want you all to return to the tomb and return in a week Demiurge.” They nodded then a gate opened behind them. They walked through the gate leaving me standing on a green hilltop. I laughed then took to the air again. I flew up to the mountains and flew around it trying to find the cave Nidra was talking about. Then I spotted what looked like an opening near the bottom of one of the mountains. I flew down and landed on front of the caves mouth. I created a ball of magic and walked into the cave. As I walked deeper I heard a dog growling. I turned a corner and saw a huge three headed bulldog with a spiked collar.

‘Growl’

I smiled as I held my hand up and pointed the palm of my hand at the dog. “Terror level one.” A pulse of dark energy hit the dog and the dogs fur stood on end. He looked at his eyes full of fear and he backed into a corner and I smiled. “Good dog, now you wait here and I’ll be back in a few minutes. If you play nice I’ll give you a treat when I get back.” The dog nodded all of its heads then I looked at the door in the back of the room. It was a large set of doors with spikes and what looked like windows at the top. The door itself had chains across it to keep the door from opening.

I smiled as I walked up to the doors. “This is child's play, um I expected much more than this.” I put a hand on the door then used a gravity spell and destroyed the door by way of crushing it to dust. A red gateway formed as I watched for something then saw someone walking through the gateway. I back up with my hands up with two spell at the ready if anything happens. A human like demon walked out of the gate then symbol on the right side of his chest. He was shirt with rags wrapped around his and he had grey skin. He stood about five inches taller than me with a strong looking build. His forearms was larger than his arms with large shoulders with what looked like deep scars. He had bandages wrapped around his forearms and his right forearm had a steel slab on the right forearm. He had long black hair with a white mask with black rings around his eyes with a small nose like hole where his nose would be. There was no mouthpiece where a mouth would be. His stomach was bent inwards and his rip over his stomach. He had on a red half cap with pants one with some armor on his legs and shens.

“You the one who destroyed the gate?”

I crossed my arms and nodded. “Yep, but your the one I’m after.”

He clinched both his fist and I waved my hands. “Wow wow, I’m not here to fight.” I took my coat off and showed him the back of the coat. “With you there are fifthteen heroes. Now, you have two options. One you can with me and help chance how everyone sees demons or you can walk back through that gate which I’m going to reseal until I hear what’s going in there from you alone.” He looked at me and then back to the gateway.

“I’ll take my chances with you, a demon like me doesn't make it far without fighting.”

I crossed my arms as I looked at him. “What do you mean demon like me?” He sighed as he pointed back to the gateway.

“In there demons who try to help others are killed for signs of weakens. Many over the last five hundred years many of demons have tired to their ways. But Arch and Elder want to kill Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.” I sighed as I nodded my head. “As long as you don’t try anything then I’ll try and cut a deal with the queens to let the demons you say are good out.” He nodded then he walked over to the mouth of the cave.

“So what now?”

I turned my head back to the destroyed gate. “Now, I fix this gate create greater item.” A wall of magic energy formed on the wall and it took shape. The doors were purple and two skeletons formed holding the edges of the door. The door finished forming and Cerberus hide behind me as the gate slammed shut.

“That is a crazy looking gate.”

I looked at him and patted cerberus on the center head. “That is a copy of hell's gate. Nothing gets through that gate without me giving permission.” I opened another gate and pulled up three large bones and dropped them at the paws of the guard. A smiled formed on the dogs mouths as the grabbed and started to chew on the bones. “Alright, let’s head out um…?”

“Abduxuel”

His voice was low and he sounded like a demon. “Nice to meet you Abduxuel, I’m Blaze.”

We nodded then walked out of the cave and he stopped and looked up at the sky. I smiled as I leaned on the side of the mountain. He kneeled down and touched the grass and ran his hands over the blades of grass. He looked at the trees as he stood back up. I laughed as he patted the tree. “I don’t mean to rush you back I have a marefriend to get back along with the other heroes.” He looked at me then walked to me.

“Right let’s move.”

I opened my gate and we walked through the gate.

Nidra pov

We sat in the gala hall with all the heroes around. The zebra was named Asha. The tiger was named Zane a son of noble blood. The gorilla’s name was Kwame. The cheetah’s name was Kali. The lion and crocodile names were snapjaw and Abbas. A crystal Stallion and his daily had also come with my family from the crystal empire. By my count their be fifteen heroes in all. My mom and aunt Celestia were mad when I told them my pony heros besides the crystal pony was chosen. Or the fact that our no hero for alicorn or Draconequus heroes. I explained it like Blaze did and they calmed for the most part. My dad however was shock Blaze would make him the repacentive of the bat ponies without a second though. The liner guard vice-captain had also shown up and was getting on my nerves.

“Princess please why don’t you just reconsider my offer?”

I sighed then turned my head to face the vice-captain. “For the last time vice-captain my answer is no. I do not want to have dinner with you. YOUR captain is my coltfriend and I’m happy with him so no.” He smiled and tried to take another step towards me but a gate opened and Reaper’s hand shot out taking his chest plate off. He fell back as Reaper and sun walked through the gate with a Changeling queen or princess if I had to guess. She was built like a mountain with a large horn and wings. Tucked into her back of a bright yellow dress on. She had long dirty blonde hair with leafs init. She had a figure close to mine but her chest was smaller than mine and smaller hips.

By all means she was still beautiful some stallions would even say gorgeous. She looked around and looked back at Sun.

“You told my mother and me I was going to meet the one who’s spell put the mark on me.”

Sun nodded then he sat down behind her. Reaper walked over to me and walked around me in a circle a few times then laid down. I smiled and patted his head as he laid beside my thorne. The changeling princess still looking at Sun started to ask him questions.

“This master of your his he powerful?”

Sun crossed his arms as he spoke.

“Master is very powerful. Only two people could match and both are dead now. One by his hand one by the ponies hands. One was a demon he considered his brother Deroy. Then the undead king Ainz Ooal Gown. Master has only lost one fight because Ainz Ooal Gown fought dirty and eal us out and made master fight him and all the guardians at once. Eleven against one wounded and badly bleeding man is no fair fight.”

I blinked and looked at Sun. “Blaze lost the fight because Ainz Ooal Gown cheated basically?” Sun nodded as he looked at me.

“Yes, Master managed to defeat all but Gargantua. He destroyed the whole dark continent were all the undead in our old home.”

I heard a few gasp from the room but the changeling princess smiled.

“I see he is strong every strong. I think I may see if he’d be interested in help me make my mother a grandmother.”

I felt something inside me stap and I was about to attack her but stopped when another gate opened and I felt something similar to when Blaze woke up but it was much weaker. A large gate opened and Blaze and a what must be the demon hero walked out. The demon stumbled a bit and Blaze grabbed him when he almost fell.

“Take it easy, my teleportation gate can be a little much the first time going through the gate. Sweet wind please help him over to a seat while I talk to the Changeling.”

Sweet wind walked over and helped the demon over to one of the seats in the room. Blaze looked at him and laughed.

“That never gets old seeing.”

He looked at me and smiled. I smiled then jumped up and ran over to him. I jumped into his arms and he wrapped his arms around me.

“Wow, I wasn’t even go an hour Nidra.”

I looked at the Changeling and she huffed as she looked at me. I also saw swift wind looking at me with puffed up cheeks. ‘Oh, so you want to try me too well bring it!’

Blaze pov

I smiled as I held Nidra then sat her back down on her hoofs. She grabbed my hand and I looked down at her with a raised eyebrow. “Did something happen?” She glared at another bat pony. I looked at him and he had his arms crossed as he looked at me. He was wearing the lunar guard armor and he had a vice-captain rank on his shoulder. I looked him in the eyes and he looked at Nidra.

“This freak is the coltfriend you turned me down for? There is no way he’s my new captain.”

I raised an eyebrow as I looked at him. “You know that I am your new captain right?” He laugh then looked around.

“Ok enough I heard my new captain was going to be here where is he?”

I smiled as Luan and Supernova who were sitting in their thrones pointed at me and he looked at me again. I smiled as I looked at him and he looked at Supernova as sweat started to fall from his head. Supernova smiled and nodded his head as he looked at me. I raised a hand and lightning cracked around my hand. “I’ll give you two options Vice-captain, take a ten thousand volt thunderbolt like a man or cleaning the latrines like a little girl.”

“All the latrines?”

I nodded and he looked away then turn and tried to run away. The second he took off running Reaper and sun jumped in front of him stopping him in his tracks. I looked at him with a smug smiled as he looked at me. “Go and clean latrines then report the throne room.” He clenched his fist when he answered me.

“Yes Sir”

They let him pass them and I felt someone poking my back. I turned my head and saw a changeling with yellow looking at me with bedroom eyes. I gulped and tried to take a step away from her. I looked at everyone and waved for them to come closer but that was a mistake as the changeling hugged my arm. “NOPE!” I pulled my arm free and and Nidra pulled me away from her. I drew a line with my finger as I looked at her. “You do not cross this and you will keep the three feet between us got it?” She smiled as she looked at me.

“Yes sir~”

A chill ran down my back as I looked at her. “How in the hell did my spell think you had the heart of a hero?” She laughed as she looked at me.

“Maybe fate saw what I could be in the very near future.”

I took another step back as she looked at me. “Do not move and I mean it when I say you will regret it immediately.” She laughed again and rested her hands on her hips.

“Fine I’ll play nice for today~”

Nidra nearly crushed my arm as she glared at her. “Ok, now I’m going to set the laws and rule we all have to follow.”

Law #1 “If you are able to use a sacred weapon then you're to protect it with your life. If you are able to master these weapons I will place a spell like the one I placed on myself to make sure you can’t miss use them.”

Law #2: "A Hero shall ask no questions of another member's magic powers."

Law #3: “In no way, shape or form are two of the thirteen allowed to date or marry.”

Law #4: "If a friend is in crisis everybody needs to use all of his or her power to help."

Law #5: “All the slave in a slave country will be freed or taken to a non slave country. Or the last option being that we will kill every single member of the slaver race or take away the ability to continue the race.”

Law #6: "When two heroes are in disagreement they can resolve it with a fight."

Law #7: "If two heroes are fighting to the death, the rest must do their utmost to stop them even if it means eliminating the perpetrator."

“I have a question about the 6th question.”

The changeling asked with her hand raised. “What is the question?” She lowered her arm as she spoke.

“What is the difference between 6th law & 7 law? A fight could become a fight to the death if they get angry enough right?”

“Good question, the line is crossed when one starts use lethal force. The moment any of us sees any lethal force we all jump in and stop it. Anymore questions?” Abduxuel stood up and looked at me.

“Law #5, does that also apply to Tartarus?”

I smiled as I looked at him. “Once were ready you, me and our third strongest will go in and pull out anyone you believe to have changed their way like you said many have tried to do and I have to believe you because when you walked out of that cave you just stopped and looked around. You were like a child seeing a whole new world and I want that for the others but I still need to make sure none of them are going to start trouble. I’ve fought demons before and I know for a fact demons are creative in a fight other are out right cheats who used children and innocent people as shields.” He blinked then spoke.

“I don’t know weather to me complimented or insulted.”

I shrugged my shoulder as he looked at me. “Whichever you real I more meant. Anyone else have a question before I summon the testing gate?” Sweet spoke up as she cheeked on Abduxuel.

“What is the testing gate?”

I smiled as she asked me. “I’m glad you asked Sweet, the testing gate is the door was to the space I keep all but my scared weapon stored in. If one of you is able to open even the first gate then you are clear to use a scared weapon that chooses to use it.”

“Chooses?”

“Someone in the third generation placed world class protection spells to make sure nobody who shouldn’t use them gets to use them. Now, let's just get right into this.” I turned with Nidra still holding my hand and she and everyone else followed me. I grabbed them all in my magic and flew us away from the city and over to the other side of heavy armor. As I flew I felt someone fighting in my magic. I turned my head and saw the stallion who helped me in the meets struggling in my magic grasp. He had on suit of light armor. But something was going on with his armor. Blue lines formed on his chest plate. “Hey armor stallion relax your making it had for my magic to hold you.” He looked up at me and nodded.

“Sorry my magic armor is trying to destroy the magic because it has a blocking spell to keep me safe and it thinks this spell is trying to attack me.”

I nodded then sat all of us down and let them all get their bearings back. The crystal stallion walked over to me and held his hand out again.

“Sorry about this but last time I talked to you I forgot to give you my name. It’s Crystal Carver Blaze.”

I took his hand and shock it. “Well it is nice to know your name. Now let me do this so we can all move on with are day.” I let both their hands go and both together and slammed down them on the ground. A massive magic circle formed on the ground.

Bright light erupted from the circle and I heard someone gasp. But ignored it for the moment so I focus on the spell. The light started to stretch out making a circle around the forest all around the edge. I started to stain myself by using both Illusion magic to make the circle. Plus, the create greater Item skill to make something this large. The skill wasn’t mean for this scale of uses. I find her a few moments later and stumbled as I stood back up. Nidra grabbed me and helped me stand up straight. I looked at the gate and smiled. “Never thought I’d have to summon this gate in my lifetime.” The gate had seven door each two times heavier than the one before it. Four dragons sat atop the gate looking like they were ready to attack in a seconds moment.

“That is a very big gate.”

Sweet wind said as she touched the gate and she tried to push on the smallest door and she couldn’t move it a fraction of an inch. She stopped and I couldn’t help but laugh a little. She looked at me and as I walked over to the door. “ This gate consists of seven doors. Each of the two panels of the first, smallest door weighs two tons, and a bigger panel weighs twice as much as the panel immediately preceding it. With the seventh gate being two and fifty six thousands tons.” I put put hand on the gate and pushed. Thanks to the high strength I got from the fake lord Ainz I push open all the door from the first to the sixth but it was slow. I saw the forest on the other side now had a straight path in it and animals nearby ran away from the opening gate. I smiled and jumped back as the gate slammed shut shaking the ground. I rolled my shoulders as I looked at the gate one more then last time. “One less than last time. I’ve gotten weaker from not fighting as often these days.”

“How much does the door you open weight Blaze?” I stretched my arms as I answered her. “Two and fifty-six thousands tons. Before I could open all seven!” I leaned my head to the side as Dracon tried to punch me. I turned my head to the side and looked at the dragon smiling as he stood behind me arm outstretched. “My magic gives me the advantage in a fight. Someone using a magic En can feel the shape and movement of anything within the area covered by their magic sphere, with the degree of awareness and finesse depending on their level of skills. I can expand my magic En out to fifty meters giving me a perfect defense no matter who my enemy is. Close range with me is a bad idea if you want to fight me with fist. I won’t lie though I’m not a hand to hand fighter.” The dragon pulled his arm back as he looked at me.

“I see you prefer to be a ranged fighting.”

I smiled as I put my hand in my pocket and smiled. “Ya, I may have strength but I really don’t want a close range fight if I can help it.” They laughed as the royalty as talked with one another. “Ok, I want each of you to try and open the first door but know that is two tons that is the first part of this test. The second part is defeating your own demons on the other side. If you can do that then you will be chosen for a sacred weapon. By demons I mean things you’ve struggled with in your life or the things that you may have made you fear for your life.” All of them looked at me as I pointed to the door. They all tried and two managed to push the door slightly in. Dracon and Abduxuel managed to push the door almost halfway in. ‘Those two could turn into real monsters after I’m done with them.’ I walked over to them both a waved for them to follow me. The did and when we were away from the group and I started to talked to them. “You two actually managed to open even a little without special muscle training I’m very impressed.” Dracon smiled and Abduxuel nodded his head as he looked at me. I crossed my arms as I looked passed them. “How would the two of you like to see my scared weapon?” Both of their eyes widened as I offered them a chance to see a sacred weapon. I smiled as I walked back over to the gate and covered my hand in magic.

“Blaze what are you doing?”

I heard Nidra ask as magic started to flow from my body. “Stay back Nidra this is about to get every dangerous. It’s high time I had my weapon Faithkeeper back.” I started to push on the door and dark magic erupted from the opening as I pushed it opened. Shadow arms with razor shaper claws slashing at everything and trying to cutting up my arms as I pushed the door open. Once I had the sixth door open a blue orb matching the magic coming from my body appeared in the center of the darkness. The light launched out of the darkness and I let the door slam shut. The light floated in front of me and I grabbed the light. A book formed in my hand surprising me for a second then I saw it was a grimoire. I smiled as I ran my hand down the front of the book. It was white with wrinkled like lines around a egg shaped circle with a tree in the middle of the book with berries on the tree.

“That is your sacred weapon?”

I looked at Luna and Celestia as they walked up beside me. I smiled as I held the book up to look at them. “This is my grimoire faithkeeper. It full name is Faithkeeper the ever learning.” Luna reach out to take the book but I pulled it up beside my thigh. “Sorry Queen Luna but even your not strong enough to use those spells or weapons the book has memorized and copied.” She crossed her arms as she looked at me.

“What do you mean I’m not strong enough?”

I sat down on the ground as I opened the book and showed her the pages. “Tell me, can you see the words or are the pages blank?” She looked at the pages and she looked at me again.

“I can’t see them can you sister?”

“No Luna, I can’t.”

I smiled as I turned the book around and held a hand out. Magic covered my right hand. “Come to me the blade of shadows and guardian of the moon pin.” Blue and Black fire erupted from my hand and a sword formed in my hand. A sword with a one handed grip and a guard that were both black with light blue glowing around them. There was a secondary guard was just below the blade someone could block with. The blade itself glew a light blue at the base of the blade and got brighter as it moved up the blade. Runes were covered into the blade which glew as bright as the area they were in.

I saw Supernova looking at my sword and I waved as I looked at him. “You interested in giving it a swing?” He smiled then walked over as I jumped up to my feet. I stabbed the blade into the ground and a small fire started to burn the grass. Supernova grabbed the sword and swung it a few times getting a feel for the sword. Then I closed my book and the magic from the sword vanished. It faded from his hand as he tried to stab it into the ground again. Everyone looked at me as I waved the book in my hands back and forth. “My power has two conditions to use this weapon. First I must witness the magic ability or weapon in action with my own eyes. Second I must ask about the ability and be answered by the target in order to gain the ability. My weapon does give me the ability to use many different power but it's a dual edge sword. I have to keep the open and in my hand in order to use the weapons and spells.” They nodded as I used the crate item skill and made a wide holster on my right side and slide the grimoire into it.

“So, when do we start training?”

Dracon asked as he walked over. I smiled as I started the second part to my grand gather spell. “Tomorrow after your bodies aren’t so sore.” I cast the spell and all of their bodies covered in white magic. All their magic energy spiked and their strength should have doubled. ‘I learned something a week into my plan haha, I learn the create skill can make anything as long as I have magic and the image in my mind. Besides that I can just image a book and like my grimoire it will be randomly made. I watched as they all managed to stay on their feet but who Gem Digger punched the ground and large cracks formed from his fist hitting the ground. I smiled I knew I many get to speed my plan up. ‘This is all going to plan. Now, I just have to get the artifact and the elements to make sure I can keep them from stopping me from controlling this world.’
