The story of the past

THE INHERITOR OF THE SHADOW AZURE DRAGON


Once upon a time there were five emperors who ruled over the five parts of the world which are wisely known as north, south,west,east and central. There emperors were elemental beings that were known as azure dragons which as they represented their domain best, the first emperor was a flame azure, second was lightning,third was earth, fourth was water and the fifth one was a mysterious one….SHADOW AZURE DRAGON. He’s empire was painted in nothing but black and gold with it’s majestic architectural structure as it stood at the south, however due to his affinity with shadows he was feared by other emperors as they thought he spied on them on daily basics thus led to his downfall…..“I never thought i will see you in such a state,well what can we say?your empire gone nowhere to be found…” As the shadow azure laid on the ground coughing out buckets of blood, enough to fill up a lake, he looks at his killer in the eye and says” You…out of all i never expected you to betray me[coughs out blood] earth…how dare you betray me?!”earth azure looks at him and smirks then stands up with his sword at hand ready to strike him down but shadow anticipated this and disappeared into the shadows never too be seen again….“Argh cough cough that hurts so bad[sighs in pain]let’s just sleep for now i will deal with them when i wake up, my empire is now bound to the shadow world and it also makes a perfect nest[coughs blood]ye-cough yeah let’s just sleep.” In pain he had no choice but to fall in a long sleep in order to fully heal his gruesome wounds, he was always alone in the shadow empire with nothing but majestic buildings and golden lakes but now his life energy was gushing out of his body making new shadows,shadows that had no purposes nor a reason to live but do nothing other than roaming around the shadow world as if they are looking out for intruders.

Shadow slept and never to awake again…he died due to blood loose.The shadows glared at the lifeless body of their ruler for awhile and knelt in front of it as if they were paying their respect to their dead emperor then continued to scan around the area for as well as you might say ETERNITY.
Meanwhile on the outside world the four remaining emperors were discussing on who will occupy the south as no land nor islands remained in this region. If one looks at this, they might as well say that water azure should occupy the watering region since no land remained so they concluded that she can have the region only if she gives up the region she possessed before for it’s land allowing her to occupy the waters alone as it would serve her better than land and so she agreed then parted ways with the other emperors.

“Now….since we do not know where that creature went let us leave too since there’s nothing for us here,earth what did he say?” flame looking at earth and as he said this,

“He was not expecting the betray, he said nothing about revenge actually just garbage talk and disappear before i was able cut his head out. i will take my leave now”he opens a portal to his domain and leaves,the portal closes and the other emperors do the same and disappear into the flames and clouds never to be seen again.

Azure calendar: year 24
24 years have passed as humanity and the beast folks have evolved in both technology and lineage whereby noble families now exist, ranks and monsters who are simply too dumb to evolve where seen prey by the strong and predators by the weak, the are outskirts and citizens areas…division now exists and without backers or a strong lineage there was no way for you to be civilized.on the orphanage in the outskirts lived 40 orphans who would be adopted or be taken to slavery if they are either too strong or too weak to be able to like a boulder,

A boy with an lean build,blonde hair,brown eyes with ragged clothes was in his room building his body in hopes of being adopted and his name is Ignas lionhart age 15 with a height of 187cm which made him look older than any kid his age.

While training the dorm master of the boy dormitory enters his room, he stands up and greets his dorm master but unexpectedly he was told to pack his things, he thought he was being adopted but the poor soul never knew that he was thrown into the slaver’s clutches and such fate he did not expect…

“Listen here boy, you will be my personal assistant since i heard that you are a smart one you will take care of my financial books and be my treasurer so i hope you will do well….just accept your life as it is now and strive to live maybe something good will happen in future. [Ignas bows to the slaver] my name is Thomas Slaver so i am your master and you serve no one except for me which means no taking orders from others got it brat?!”

“y-yes master…i understand.”They leave the orphanage as they head to slaver’s territory and so minutes later they arrive and he is shown his room and given new clothes and books to study and record, on his first day he is already working like a slave he is called?by evening new books arrived which included the sum of money of the existing books and the current were ready to be recorded

Night fell and he was training his body after being finished with the records then he ate,bathed and slept.The next morning he was given more books than before and so included a cellphone and a personal computer to store data of the records somewhere else which made his work easier than before, days went by like a flowing river, month ran past him like did not exist and now he was 17 years with a muscular frame,196cm and long and blonde hair that was on his shoulder seemingly wearing finer clothes now due to his astonishing performance as slaver praised him a lot of the years some people where developing hatred on him but he paid no mind to this knowing that no one can lay their hands on him or so he thought until one day, one of the servant who was a body guard decided that he needed to be taught a lesson and so he went and did it…leaving him swimming in his blood…he was dying but lucky Thomas found him and immediately sent him to the hospital while the culprit was…killed.
Ignas was placed on life support barely hanging on his life but of course due to Thomas he managed to survive, you might be wondering why he was saved…was it because he care?because he valued him as his own son?no a slave who does a good job can not be replaced even when near death’s door,letting him die would be the biggest mistake he would do after all thanks to Ignas his business has climbed the ranks and is seen as the number one slavery company so why would he thrown away his treasurer so easily?

“hurry and get healed brat,your assistants will take over for now[sighs] its probably my fault but….i do not care.” He walks out the room and instructs his guards to watch over him.

“damn it…should we bail out?”

“if boss finds out we dead! are you crazy plus there are camera here.”

“damn it….well at least we do not have to go around killing pe-”

“SHUT IT! you loose mouth bastard do you want me to kill you?!”

“M-my bad….”unfortunately for Ignas he heard everything Thomas and the guards have said even when in coma he heard everything but so after he awoken in a abyssal looking place with nothing but darkness and golden lake, he looked around and saw majestic ancient buildings including the golden sun that what less hotter that of his world…

“Am i in hell?” looks around then looks down and sees a massive black gold scale as he saw dozens of them forming around and looking like a body of a massive being.

“You are not in hell brat….you are in my world!” with that he turns slowly to the voice only to see a massive eye looking at him and he fainted.
