The Chronicles of Ostrunov 2 Belong Together

Chapter 9

The vicious fight ensued once again, both sides attacking each other. But even so, it seemed like an unending battle. Martino and Vincent went all out but none of them gave in.

The sky above the palace began turning black with smoke from the ruins.

"So annoying!!! Why don't you just die already, Anders!!"

"You challenged the wrong person, Vincent!"
With that said, Martino immediately cast a death spell at him, sending Vincent to the ground.

The sound of the floor tiles cracking as the demonic figure slid across the ground. The beauty of emperor's tomb demolished.

It seemed luck was on Vincent's side as he used his magic to get his hands on the emperor's amulet. Once wearing it, his power returned immediately.

"Hahahah, finally!! I'm immortal!! Now it's your time to die!!!!"

Marino was calmed since that was a part of his plan.

.... Man... I'm hoping for a better plan. This is crazy...but there's no other choice.

The moment Vincent charged at him in rage, Martino used the Scepter, transporting them to other dimension.

"Martino!!!!!!!!!!!"
Lucas's voice shouted after him until it was gone.

Martino casted a magical spell, bringing two of them back to the past. Although this was extremely risky and if the spell went slightly wrong, he might be stuck in time, he might not make it out at all. Yet he had no choice but to put his own life at stake.

Martino brought them to a certain place. When Vincent looked at his surroundings, he could not believe his eyes.

"This is.. Theocor!! This is my home!!! Everything is still beautiful as before!!"

"I brought you back to the past! Here, see with your own eyes and open your eyes! Vincent!"

Martino began to control time to move slowly, allowing Vincent to see what really happened. He saw the beautiful city beginning to deteriorate with the plague. People began to die one by one, until the King Gustaf, who was his great-grandfather, set off in search of the divine fruit according to the prophecy, which, of course, he never returned. Although that was a story he already knew, Martino took the two of them to the mountain where it all happened.

At the snowy mountain where the sacred tree is located, the Kings of Scandinavia's, be it little or big kingdoms, fought each other to the death, until everyone was injured. And there, Emperor Oceania at that time, Gregers' father, convinced everyone to stop fighting. He suggested the fruit be cut into equal pieces for each kingdom to extract medicine. The kings agreed except the King from Theocor who refused, and only wanted for himself. When given a chance, he tried to kill everyone off with black magic weapon.

"No!! Great-Grandfather!! Please Stop!!! Don't do it!!!"

Vincent shouted, trying to stop him but it was in vain. Those who traveled back in time couldn't interact with the people of the past. They existed in a different dimensions, according to the law of the god of time, Cronus, which forbade magicians to change events freely.

Vincent saw his great-grandfather slaughter the kings from his neighbor kingdoms one by one. He then aimed his weapon at the great-grandfather of Martino's, Los Cielo, but was stopped by Terreno's king and Emperor Oceanía. Terrerno almost fell into a deep abyss himself.

"Oh no!! Be careful!!!"

Luckily, Emperor Oceania grabbed his great-grandfather's hand. But it was far from over, the snow-covered ground on the mountain was ready to collapse at any moment. And the emperor's strength alone wasn't enough to pull another man up. He himself almost fell at the same time. But the kings of Los Cielo and Terreno tried to hold the emperor with all their might.
