THE DIVINE WEAPONS OF THE FAMILIES
As the echoes of my triumph over the Lord Phantom reverberated through the Tomb of Order, the very fabric of the realm began to fracture.
Strange, elongated figures plummeted from the heavens, their frail forms contrasting sharply against the chaos unfolding around us.
Above, where the phantoms once shrouded the sky, a breach emerged, revealing the gateway to the Dark Realm.
Emperor Tian, my mentor, engaged in a fierce struggle against the Eye of the Dark Realm, his valor a beacon amidst the encroaching darkness.
Though my instinct urged me to join him after vanquishing the Lord Phantom, the realm's collapse rendered it impossible. And Emperor Tian would dismiss my offer of aid. In his eyes, my assistance was unnecessary, unwanted.
With no recourse but to heed his wishes, I resolved to depart for the Knight Templar Academy. I shattered a precious gem, its fragments swirling to conjure a mystical portal.
Yet, just as I prepared to step through the magic portal that I summoned, as the battlefield stirred with ancient energy.
Fallen knights, long entombed in slumber, ascended into the air, while from the depths arose terracotta warriors, their silent march echoing through the chaos.
In a mesmerizing fusion, the terracotta warriors melded with the armor and arms of the fallen knights, birthing an army of formidable Terracotta knights. As one, they soared towards the dark breach in the heavens, bound by a singular purpose- to aid Emperor Tian in his conquest.
The army of Terracotta has arisen again to aid its emperor.

"What are those Terracotta puppets? There are more than a million of them. Who in hell can command such an army?" Ratatouille asked me.
"The Terracotta warriors belong to my teacher, Emperor Tian. From what we saw, these terracotta warriors took the armor and magic of the fallen knights in the tomb and merged with them", I told him.
"They took the weapons and armor like your Malevolent Slaves? Without crafting?" Ratatouille asked me.
"My teacher's magic may be unfathomable even for me. His Terracotta puppets don't need forging to absorb the magic in the realm", I replied to him.
"What the hell are they going to do next?" Ratatouille asked me.
"They will probably join the emperor in his battle against the Eye of the Dark Realm", I explained to him.
"What have you done to our treasure realm, the Tomb of Order?" someone shouted at me and accused me as I came out from my summoned portal.
Then I realized the magic portal to the Tomb of Order was collapsing after I came out.
"What are we going to do now if the Realm of Dark invades our world again?" Lord Temeros asked.
"It is all your fault, bastard Oriese", Lord Iketes shouted to me and accused me again.
"Hey, are you fools waiting for me?" I asked them.
The cowardly knights that went into the Tomb of Order to harm me were still waiting for me outside the entrance. They must confirm that I was dead before they report to their bosses for rewards or will finish the job if I return from there.
"How did you escape from the Lord Phantom?" Lord Lady Aesoness asked me.
"My sword ate him", I replied to her.
"Don't waste time talking to him. Kill him now before people come into this chamber to check. This is our only chance", Lord Temeros told them.
The rogue knights of the Knights of the Order were about to attack me.
"This bastard is a little weird. Don't waste time with him, just finish him off with our strongest move", Lord Lady Aesoness told the other knights.
"Are you sure we use our divine artifacts on the bastard. It is a waste on him, using the divine artifacts will drain our magic permanently, possibly reducing a level or two of our magic?", Lord Iketes replied to her and asked.
"Too many things have gone wrong in this mission. We must make sure we don't leave anything to chance this time", Lord Temeros told them.
Soon, the three lords of the Knight Order brought out their strongest magic, powerful artifacts that could only be considered divine.
Suddenly, a long chain was elongated and rushed toward me, summoned by one of the three.
"Projectiles are useless against me", I said to him.
"Your chaos field will not help you with my seeker chain. We have studied your magic in your past battles", Lord Iketes told me proudly about his divine chain that could overcome my chaos field magic.
"Seeker Chain of Truth"
"Damnit, these scums found out about my chaos field. Finally", I complained to myself.
Before the chain could capture me, a large bell like conjuration appeared over my head, falling on me to imprison me.
"You cannot escape from my Bell of Reformation", Lord Lady Aesoness told me.
"Bell of Reformation"
As both the chain and bell were falling on me, another swirling blade appeared above me. This rotary blade when confined inside the Bell of Reformation would shred me into well, shreds.
"Blades of Fury"
"I'll turn you into meat mince once my Blades of Fury is done with you", Lord Iketes told me.
Suddenly, all three divine artifacts of the three knights came onto me, capturing me with the chains while the bell imprisoned me. The Spinning Choppers pushed itself down to mince every ounce of my body into minced meat.
"Mince Meat, hahaha", Lord Iketes shouted out in excitement, as their artifact weapons destroyed me.
When the spinning choppers stopped spinning, there was nothing left inside the Bell of Reformation. The knights wanted to turn me into minced meat, and they could probably have done so.
"Is he really dead?" Lord Temeros asked.
"He couldn't survive the attack from our divine artifacts. They are the strongest weapons of our families", Lord Iketes replied to them.
The three families, the Hermaios, Gamanos and Diabolese, wanted my life so badly that they sent their strongest knights into the Tomb of Order to kill me. They even gave them their families' strongest divine artifacts for the mission, just in case.
