Chapter 22 - The Conquerors Wish: The Saint of Elise

The addition of Jaccuess was the begining of what made her educated about the world around her, he became her teacher he taught her about the world, the people, the capitals, cities and magic. Not only was She now being taken care of by someone that was like a parental figure as a father like figure to her but also a teacher and a powerful one, a man named Jacuess during the times when Lisa was away and Phates conducting businesses far from his teritory Jaccuess was not only the one person that is in immediate response to Alexia's needs both physically and intellectually but he is also her protector, he was assigned a weapon that could harness the power of the sun, Phobos that artifact was kept within the depths within Phates's personal vault, the artifact was calling for the hands of someone capable and when Jaccuess walked around with Phates while discussing things the artifact just flew to the hands of Jacc and melted everything stood between where the artifact was stored and where his hands were positioned, this artifact had a liffe of its own, Phobos was not just an artifact but a spirit that lived within an artifact, Lawliet The Primordial Son.

After another 6 years pass Alexia grew older and was turning 13 years of age Lisa and Jacc had a plan to make a small birthday party for Alexia with Phates not coming back for the next week or so it was up to them to make it as great of a day for Alexia as possible, at this point in her life after being blind for so long she was getting used to everything her blindness creates as a challenge and was now fine without even the help of a care taker but Jacuess was attached to the girl, he even after all this time when he already paid off his debt to Lisa he still stayed with them, at this point in time he already repaid every single ask of that debt 3 years ago, at this point to him Alexia was like his own daughter he could never imagine being away from her now and would feel like the world was ending if she would ever disappear pack up and leave from this place, Alexia also has grown attached to him and for her he was not just her uncle or big brother but she treated him like her own father, she respected him and loved him and if he would ever leave and never return something devastating will happen.

As the days passed and Alexia's Birthday Nearing a lot of things began happening within the slums, at the time the lord of the lands Pleiades ArkHangel was absent from the ruling of his territory and with Hugh Phates gone to another country the enemies of the slums started to become active again after hearing this, nobody assumed position and nobody was assigned a position before the lord went off to look for something the gambling ring was left in automation still making money and still making enemies but now with no one to keep anything in check, they were growing more and more impatient the slums was becoming a dangerous place to stay in and Lisa was left to fend off everything that came into her way, more dangerous than how it was before instead of higher classed people wandering around the slums and doing as they see fit it became a hunting ground for them and the common people that lived within it loved every single day breathing the fear of death that came looming at every single direction at each single second of the day.

There was an unchecked part of the lands, a part where the nobility was gathering to proclaim that those of lower stature be lesser than those of higher class, they not only proclaimed to the dissolvastion of those commoners but the extinction of those that lived poorly. This was a crime that was yet to be stopped or found within the ArkHangel Territory, the territory of the lord was the location of which all of this started happening, there were nobility againts the mere existence of these people and there were those that wanted to fight back to those that started killing their kind, without the lord and his consent all those involved will be killed without trial, this was againts the pillar of the ArkHangels the ruling of justice and absolution.

Lisa works for the Phates, Hugh Niecs Phates was the leader of a gambling ring at the northernmost area of the slums, a place that was known as a territory of a massive Gambling Ring, Lisa was his second in hand because Lisa is a talented magical prodigy though her role in the world is that of a commoner she taught her self magic since she started to feel it when she turned 7, slowly through years and years of unknowingly consuming and regaining magic by natural means by the time she turned 19 she was on par with an educated and graduated mage from the Recillian Estate, in other words she is as strong as an imperial mage, she was used by Hugh as a bargaining and intimidation tool to have his way with those that don't see them as a threat and is stupid enough to cross the Phates.

Pleiades Antsat ArkHangel was the first head of the ArkHangel Nobility, Being established for the last 20 years of bloodshed and a succession war that ended with one successor standing by the time the oldest became 20, he was the man that united his house under his own command, a house split between 14 successors, he was ruthless cunning yet justified, he keep's his word and loves by his own ideals, Righteousness and Justice.

One of the Only moment that he broke his own ideals was when he made a wish, a very selfish wish for the pursuit of immortality, he was a noble man but even with the nobility behind him his fear for death still became a thing that haunted him, after defeating an astral being namely an Abyssal Lich an almost immortal wish granting monster that hailed from the time of primordial beings in the old earth, a battle was fought to the almost death, ArkHangel hit the primordial veins within the physical composition of the monster while the monster bro the motor and magical functions of the human, a grueling battle that ran for 5 hours the two parties by the end of the battle ended everything with a wish in exchange he will let the monster live, Pleiades chose to wish for a successor, a strong and power one at that, the lich granted his wish after he finds the child he seeks's at this point he did not want another offspring and wanted it to be a conjured child to instantly assume position of the succesio of the ArkHangel's. but with luck he did not expect that he wished for something so powerful that it was even beyond his own control.

The Bloodshed of Hanhatthen, a tragedy that killed my commoners andalmost dethroned the ArkHangel Nobility from their position, Hanhatthen, Arc'en Ciel was a a nobleman from a removed line of nobility, the Munchen Nobility located at the northern part of the old imperial Capital, they were a corrupt self centered nobility and ended up being the executors of the Popedom Martyr, Casslies Fleeticus, the execution of the pope signed the end for the nobility cause it sparked a war of attrition between the high nobility and the middle nobility, while the lower nobility served in the war from two sides depending wether or not they keep and live in their respective territories, the war was brutal leaving the Munchen Nobility with 2 Surviving members of the nobility, with which the other one died later on from the wounds they obtained during the battles they faced.

The Bloodshed of Hathatthen is a 9 Day War that was a bloodier one compared to it's preceding conflict, the entire southern was covered with blood after everything ended, 3/4th of the population including the nobility in count was killed even before the 5th day was finished. It was fought between the Phates Faction, The Munchen Cult, and the ArkHangel Nobility.

Alexia ArkHangel, She was chosen through a wish made by the head of the ArkHangel House, a wish that was very specific to the point where the payment was killing a primordial Being that was equal to a God yet not delivering the killing blow, an honor he abandoned for the sake of power.

Alexia was given a description by the lich before disappearing, this child you wish of is of a perfect being, acts like a perfect noble, speaks like one, moves like one, and thinks like one. She is a beautiful yet mysterious individual, it feels as though seeing her directly through her eyes feels like one is getting choked to death, her eyes are those of an empty and souless dead body, filled with darkness, nothing more nothing less.

The wish had guided Pleiades slowly through the years since he has made that wish, a power that was mysterious yet is calm, a magic flow that only he could see, and it was engraved within his own veins that will one day lead him to his wish when it resonated with his magic, it took him an agonizing wait of 14 years before he found the child within the slums, on one faithful day he was approached by a man that had a leaking flow of magic that was resonating with his veins he was being questioned by the noble and Jacc traumatized by prior events with nobility constantly trying to kill him he considered his life for once and he didn't even try to move a muscle, but seeing that it was the distinguished and highly acclaimed lord of the teritory he risked his life and engaged in a conversation with the nobility, Pleiades asked "You Commoner, Do you take care of a child?" Jacc replied even though he was scared stiff "No." Pleiades backed off without questioning the man further and left him as is but as time passes Jacc also realized that it was weird that the lord knew Jacc was taking care of a Alexia, time passed and passed slowly but surely Jacc realized that he was not strong enough anymore to even take care of Alexia, he was also weakening and was sick since 5 months ago and 2 months after the war he was left one eye blind and left hand and leg removed, he had no choice but to tell the noble the truth.

It was a sign that this was it, he had found what he was wishing for, though he had a son that was 13 years of age he was disappointed that his son had turned out Into a useless boy because of his position within his nobility, At long last he finnaly found it, as he stepped foot within the slums he Finnaly saw it, resonating within the girls veins, Jacuess had informed him since a week before he set foot within the slums that she was a blind girl and that she was being taken care of but it was not enough.

Alexia ArkHangel, The Holder of an Unknown Original Class Artifact, she was now a part of nobility, she could resonate with the thoughts of the lord in a one way channel and as she heard it "This Child will be for my Own." She was happy but did not know what kind of fate awaited her.

Lisa died the week before Alexia was adopted, Jacuess had to give the news to Alexia, heart broken and devastated by this she ran to find Lisa and where she lays to rest it was a heart wrenching moment in her life that left her scarred for life, that was the begining of this ruthless persona of this once innocent girl into this girl that has death looming behind her, That was Elise.

It was a deadlock between three factions, The Fortuna Familé, The Phates, and The Ghates. The territory was becoming more and more unstable, by the second it just releases itself into upcoming destruction, each of the factions fought hard and shed blood where it mattered, members of each faction died and by the end the slums was painted with blood while some survived some of the higher class members of the Fortuna Familé managed to track the weakened Lisa and managed to defeat her, she was found later after Phates commanded the entire Faction to search and look for Lisa, he knew it was too late at this point, she was uncontacted for the last 2 days and he deep in his heart didn't want to believe in it but he knew from that moment on that he just lost everything he worked for, the faction, the money, the people, and his right hand woman one of the strongest people he has ever seen, at long last 4 days since the search was begun, Lisa was found dead within the deeper territory of the slums.

She was later taken in by the head of the ArkHangel Nobility as per request by Jacuess a month after Lisa's death, by the price of Jacuess's life and his heart as a form of promise, Jacc was taken to join The Dominion of ArkHangel a knights order that delivers insanity to where they wage war to where they go, a country elimination squad, the last 12 generations had diet in battle destroying one country each generation, she was taken in by that promise And from that day forward She was Alexia ArkHangel A Noble Girl from common blood, and became adopted daughter of the ArkHangel House.

The ArkHangel is within his hands, a weapon of absolute and mass destruction, he was the true heir and the only son, will be and would be the only son of the ArkHangel Bloodline, before the adoption of Alexia the now first son was fighting a brutal and bloody succession war, even though he won his father did not even look at him once in the eyes, bringing even one of his brother's corpse to his father's throne and presenting him with the body fresh dripping with blood, his father ignores all of this and moved on from even taking notice of his brutal demeanor.
