Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 296: Tasks To Carry Out

The city didn't look any different, but Rezar could feel it. There was a feeling of power in the air, a sort of qualitative change that have invariably changed the total aspect of what Necron city and in retrospect Morte Bianca could ever be or become. Things were bound to get interesting from now on, but it wasn't too bad, whatever the case may be, Rezar knew or rather he could say he hoped the bonding with the Geo-core was not a big mistake and something he might end up regretting in the long run.

"Your Majesty? Is it over?" Kitagawa asked as he moved closer to Rezar, they had been dropped in Necron city's main street. And while a lot of its citizen had fallen into a panic, seeing their king standing in place with them and right in the middle of whatever crisis that seemed to have occurred, gave them all peace of mind.

"Kitagawa co-ordinate with Jason and give a detailed rundown of the city's current state. You guys should enlist the help of Alistair and check if there has been any damage of significance, or any other obvious change done to the infrastructure of the city. You all can come find me at the arch once you're done, or the palace depending on where my mood would take me, but just get that analysis report down."

"Yes your majesty. I will get down to it swiftly!" Kitagawa said with a bow as he swiftly (just like he said) turned around and shifted into his Kitsune form, bounding across the city, doing his best to evade the pedestrians, carriages and rare sighting of cars that were in front of him. Rezar nodded his head as he turned to Samira.

"I need you to get out of the city and back to the Breone Mountains. I want you to keep an eye on Sillomere and its ensuing chaos after the death of its queen. If it is as the Core had said and our fight had been broadcasted, one way or the other, then there's definitely going to be a lot chaos with the snow elves and dwarves. I need you there personally to keep an eye on the situation, send me regular updates on the hour, and make sure to take protection from the sun on your way out. I'm sorry I'm having you move around during the day time." Rezar apologized as he gave Samira his orders.

"It's my honor to serve you your majesty, and as long as you will it, I will walk through the flames of a thousand suns for your sake and the sake of our kingdom. By your leave your leave your majesty, and yours too queen in waiting Lenore, I shall go fulfill my tasks now." Samira said as she gave a swift bow and headed in the direction of the palace, her hood pulled up over her body as she hurried to get out of the touch of the fully risen sun.

Watching her walk away, Rezar turned to look at Lenore who also has a pensive look on her face. It was obvious she was deep in thought as she tried to figure out what was the next step to take. But no matter, Rezar had already figured that out or her, he was the king; and even though she would be his queen soon, she was still the first general of his army, and there were places he needed her to be right now. But before Rezar could open his mouth to say anything, she already took the initiative to speak to him.

"I'll head out to go reinforce our borders, at the moment that's the most important thing we have to worry about. That way none of our other enemies take advantage of the conflict between us and Sillomere to reap advantages. On the other hand, I would like express permission to take control of the undead, with the exclusion of the vampires as they only answer to you. I would like to resume our incursion on Sillomere. Defending our borders is good and it's a task I will personally be overseeing.

But Screet and Brutus would be otherwise better suited to making sure Sillomere falls into our hands and not the that of our enemies, or even letting the snow elves think for one second that our conflict is over with the passing of the queen. I believe it's time Morte Bianca Expanded her borders, and prove to the entire Bahrenburg wildlands, that there is no force more supreme than that of Morte Bianca!" Rezar raised an eyebrow as he held back a smile.

She was such a dutiful soldier it was hard to imagine if she could make that transition and become a dutiful wife. But then again this was her own way of showing respect and devotion, it didn't exactly matter how or in which format it was done. She did what was necessary and all for the satisfaction of her king. Rezar felt he needed to give her a little more leeway and control, she would be a good deterrent to Gynaika's ever growing appetite for power.

"Very Well Lenore, you're free to do as you please for the foreseeable future. But just like Kitagawa and Samira, I need major updates from you regularly. I will let determine how regular those reports would be, as a sign of trust between the two of us. But please don't let me call you and ask you for it, now run along Red, and do be on your best behavior." Rezar said to her as he turned and left, leaving behind a shocked Lenore who seemed like a deer caught in headlights.

It has been a while, a year if not more since Rezar had last called her Red. It took her back to a time when she was the forewoman in charge of the Lobotar Stygian mines, and Rezar was the cocky snot faced death class problem she had to deal with. She remembered humiliating him in order to teach him his place, she remembered not standing up for him when he was wrongfully accused.

And then she remembered him turning her entire life upside down, she remembered freedom. She remembered purpose and direction and power, leading all up to this very moment in time. All of these things made it possible for her; a demon with heart as black as night to be able to feel love again, after a dark past with Malik. There was bright future with Rezar, and it was funny she cared so much given the age difference, but this was Elysium. Especially now when vampires and demons are practically immortal in their own rights.

But be that as it may, what she had now was perfect. She was Lenore the First General of Morte Bianca, Queen in Waiting and Commander of the Armies of His Majesty: King Rezar DeathWind. First of his line and first his blood, Son Death and King of Fire and War, King of the Bone Horde. And through it all she was to him Red.... and that was the only title that mattered.

she turned and walked away as Rezar made his way through Necron city. The citizens who were awake were all too quick to bow and give the king a wide berth seeing as his entire form was entirely bloody. Alistair and Gynaika would probably have a field day about the manner in which he presented himself, but he didn't give a shit, and neither did his previous company seeing as they all were just as bloody as he was. Well almost as bloody anyway. True warriors could hardly bring themselves to give a shit about decorum when there was work to be done.

So apart from smiling, Rezar ignored most of the people who were gawking at him as if they had just seen the eighth wonder of the world. But even with his ignoring he still took a moment to appreciate his city. He was now walking past the business district where there were hundreds of stores lining multiple streets, with merchants of all race and sizes finally opening and setting up shop for the day.

The businesses were varied, and it seemed competition was fierce. There was everything from a simple tea house, to sophisticated advertising agencies, law firms funny enough. Martial art schools, dancing studios, a brothel; and those had quite a few of them. gambling houses and so much more. But even with that he noticed the shadows hanging at the edge of every building, the shady characters, the secret deals being carried out in the early hours of the morning.

Crime in his capital city. Or at least early signs of it. As much as it was annoying and something Rezar would rather avoid, he actually found it interesting. He had to look a little closer into what was going on within his city, but that would be later. Because he had arrived at the central plaza, and standing in front of him was the ornate silver, white and gold arch of Morte Bianca.

"Okay Geo-core; let's see just how much you've fucked my kingdom up."
