Dragon Slayer of the Boiling isles (Theowlhouse x malereader x OC)

Hunting Pailsman and a reunion (Chapter 30)

The scene cuts over to the inside of the emperors. A bonfire filled with coals, which has nine empty circular holes around the edge. A blue fire ignites on the coals, before quickly extinguishing and sizzling. Cut to a different location in the Emperor's castle, outside the stairs leading down to the room in which the portal door is held. Four spear-wielding scouts lined the entrance, standing impassively were nine people. These were the coven heads. They wear white cloaks with circular badges bearing the symbol of their respective covens, walk between them and gather around the central bonfire, which now burns low. Emperor Belos sits on a low seat in front of the portal door, which has tubes running out of it and is held in place by a towering circular frame in the process of being reconstructed. The Golden Guard and Kikimora stand on either side of Belos, and two Abomatons flank the three.

Kikimora: The Day of Unity approaches, where we'll celebrate the purification of magic under the coven system, just as The Titan intended. As heads of the nine covens, we celebrate your efforts to complete this plan. For this, you have earned a glimpse of the reward that awaits.

Belos: *Gestures forth.* Step forward.

The head witches remove their badges and place them in the holes around the bonfire. The badges glow with bright colors, and light swirls into the center of the fire as it suddenly erupts. The heads gaze in awe at the fire as their eyes turn a glowing white. The heads receive a vision through the flames, in which The Titan's skull is shown from the side against a dark sky, with nearby trees visible. The sky turns and becomes brighter and The Titan's eye glows from within before a fiery blast erupts from it, causing nearby birds to fly away. Finally, The Titan's head is now shown to be relocated to what appears to be a metropolis of the Human Realm, shown against a red sky with an eclipse slowly rising above. The vision fades to the head witches, their eyes still glowing.

Belos: The larger your covens grow, the more power we have to unite our realms, where the worthy shall inherit a utopia free of wild magic.

During his speech the Emperor suddenly felt pain in his chest. Seeing this the golden guard quickly runs to the emperor's side and carries him away from the group. Kikimora was going to follow them but was stopped by the golden guard.

Golden guard: No. Stay here. I can handle this alone.

Kikimora glares at the guard from his response. Soon the guard and Belos made it to the main room and Belos slowly started to walk to the center of the room. Unable to control the pain he was feeling, Belos fell to his knees as his mask fell on the ground. Instead of revealing the emperor's face, the emperor's body started to transform into a horrible beast. The golden guard watches as the beast cries out a loud scream. The beast starts to punch a nearby wall repeatedly making the guard look away. This has happened more times than once for the guard. He couldn't bear to watch anymore. As the beast continued to hit the wall, slowly the emperor started to return back to normal, with sludge around his arm. He grabs the mask and puts it back on his face. He always hated when this happened, it was always painful for him whenever he transformed into that thing. That is why he needs palisman to keep it under control.

To answer his call, the golden guard brings him a palisman. Seeing this the emperor snatches it from him, breaks it, and inhales the green essence from it. Sadly the poor palisman slowly starts to crumble into dust, while the emperor's eyes start to glow blue. Though it helped, it only kept him calm for a little bit.

Belos: *holds up his hand* I need more.

Golden guard: That was.... The last from our reserves. The palistrom wood has been overharvested.

Belos retracted his hand in anger and started to walk away. This is bad. Without pailsman's then he couldn't keep himself from turning into that thing. If words get out people will soon start to question him, or even worse, they would chase him down like a dog. He needs a plan.
