Magus: Rise of the Darkness Empress

”AHHHHH-”

The peaceful silence of the night was suddenly broken by the dying shout of a man. A sword had penetrated his belly. Soon his shouting came to an end when that same sword had seperated his head from his body.

Seeing this terrifying scene, another man who was holding a spear tried to attack the source of his terror with tears streaming down his eyes. But his outcome was also the same as the previous man and his head was separated from his body soon afterwards.

The individual who was responsible for this this was a cute young girl. She looked to be about 12 or 13 years old. She had smooth and beautiful black hair and deep dark eyes. Her skin was very fair in colour which almost looked pale. It created an attractive contrast with her black hair.

Even though she was young, her body was very well developed. She had a S shape hourglass figure with thickness in just the right places.

Not only that but from the way she was controlled her body, it was clear that she was also physically very capable. Overall, she was an extremely cute and strong little lady.

She was holding a medium sized sword in her hands which was now dripping with blood. Her face was showing no expression, as if killing these men was not worthy of producing any emotions in her.

The head of one of the beheaded soldier came rolling before her feet and she kicked it away without giving it a second thought.

These two soldiers were guarding the door to a room. So after taking care of them, her next target was the wooden door.

Suddenly her body started glowing with a green light and she attacked the door with her sword. This door was made from thick wood which was also reinforced with metal. So it was extremely sturdy. But she cut open that sturdy door with just a single slash of her sword.

Immediately after that, two spear thrusts came out from the inside of the room, which the girl dodged by slightly moving her body out of the way. One of the spear almost grazed her eyes but even that did not create any emotional response in the young girl.

With the same expressionless face as before, she swang her sword again and in a blink of an eye, the two spear holding soldiers fell down with blood gushing from their throat.

Unlike the two men who were outside, these soldiers were wearing armours and metal helmets. So the little lady targeted heir throats that was not protected by an armour.

These two well equipped soldier were the last ones to still be alive in this castle. So after they were killed, this place now had no other soldiers left. Before coming here, she had already silently taken care of the rest.

The little lady then kicked the two heavy soldiers away and looked at the room which was now empty. But she did not mind that and went toward an old bookshelf.

There she took out a certain book and pressed a switch located behind it. Then a click sound was heard and immediately a portion of the wall opened up and a small secret passage was revealed.

The little girl immediately stepped foot inside the dark secret passage without a moment of hesitation.

After walking in the dark passage for some time, she came accross a large underground space. There she found three people trying to break open a metal door which was not opening at all even with their full effort.

Among the three people, one of them was a middle aged man with black hair mixed with grey. He was holding a long sword in his hand.

There was also a woman with brown hair who looked beautiful but was slightly plump and overweight. And then finally there was another brown haired boy who looked to be about 17 or 18 years old.

He had a tall, slim and somewhat muscular body. He was also holding a sword just like the middle aged man.

Those three people were too engrossed in trying to break open the door, so they did not notice the little girl’s arrival at all.

Seeing this, the young girl sighed lightly and spoke up for the first time during this whole incident. Her melodious but slightly cold voice reverberate in that underground space.

”Father, mother, big brother. That door is blocked from the other side with a large boulder and it will not open no matter how hard you try.”

Hearing the sweet voice, all three of them immediately looked behind them toward the little girl. Seeing her, immediately their eyes got filled with hatred. The middle aged man greeted his teeth in anger and shouted -

”Weiss, how dare you go against me ? Stop this foolishness at once and I might be willing to forgive you.”

Hearing what her father had to say, the little girl, Weiss sighed again with no fluctuations in her emotion. Then with the same cold voice, she replied -

”I don’t need your forgiveness, father. Are you not understanding the situation you’re in ? I’m planning to kill you all right here, right now.”

Hearing the word ”kill”, the lady present there started shaking in fear. Then after she looked at Weiss for a moment, her fear turned into rage and she shouted with a loud and crazy voice -

”You ungrateful wench. Is this is how you’re going to repay your parents for raising you ? You freaky bitch.”

Hearing her mother’s insults and accusations, Weiss was not moved at all. She continued answering her in the same cold tone of voice -

”Raising me ? Other than giving birth to me, I don’t remember you all doing anything to raise me. As for the gratitude for not killing me in your womb, I think I have repayed that more than enough by becoming a punching bag for all of you for more than a decade.”

”Whenever father went away to the city and spend the night there in the arms of other women, didn’t mother vented her anger by slapping, strangling and torturing me ?”

”Didn’t father enjoyed kicking and trampling me under your feet whenever you discovered signs of mother sleeping with other men or when your knight training did not show any results ? Didn’t you have a great time flogging me with a whip and making marks on my skin.”

”Didn’t big brother liked the feeling of superiority you get after after treating me as a beating doll and trampling me under your feet ? Didn’t you also managed to become close to the son of count Falgur by promising him my body to play with ? I think by enduring all that for 14 years, I have repayed all of you more than enough.”

Hearing Weiss speaking about her treatment by their hands for the last 14 years, instead of showing any remorse, the middle aged man’s face twisted in even more anger. He shouted loudly and attacked Weiss with his sword while saying -

”Useless ingrate, you’re our property so we can do whatever we want with you. Hmph. You little hussy. You think you can match an experienced knight like me, the great baron Patrick Souran in battle. I will cut your limbs and sell you to the count’s son as a cocksleeve.”

His body started to glow with a dim green glow. It was the same light that had appeared on Weiss when she had cut down the thick door. But the light on Baron Souran was quite a bit dimmer if compared to hers.

Weiss’s body also started to glow with green light and she stated to avoid the baron’s attacks with minimal movements. While avoiding, she looked at the baron with calm eyes while trying to find gaps in his posture to attack him.
