Chapter 1391 [Supreme Wars: Act I] 31/?: The Emperor"s Past
-----
The Gale Bird Emperor had changed from back then. He no longer had a wounded wing, he was strong, and he knew he could defeat his opponents if he used this new power he had acquired, which he had been training ever since he became an Undead G.o.d as high as a Pseudo Supreme G.o.d.
He still recalled the pathetic way in which he died, embraced by slimes and poisoned to death, such a terrible death brought to him tremendous disgrace, and an incredible sense of resentment like nothing has ever made him felt before.
Since he was alive, however, that he was already corrupted by greed and selfishness, disregarding, and sacrificing his own siblings, the other birds, as if they were mere p.a.w.ns that were made to sacrifice themselves and die for him.
He was selfish and incredibly egocentric, and challenged the Mountain Monkey Emperor when he thought he could stand a chance after he evolved into an Emperor… However, that only ended badly for him.
Although the Mountain Monkey Emperor didn"t killed him, he taught him a lesson… which he had yet to even comprehend, as the only thing lingering on his mind was hate, pure hatred.
"I am sorry, Green Feather, but I cannot let you take me down… I"ll take away your flight… and your pride… Please, bear with the burdens you"ve been bestowed until the time is here…!"
The harsh words of the ruthless Monkey Emperor resonated through the ears of the Gale Bird Emperor in those ancient times, as his wing had been broken, and his ability to fly was broken alongside his wing… He had become a broken man as well, drowning on his own self-loathing and frustration, and even his own hatred… It was something that didn"t seem to ever come to an end.
"Father, mother, sister… I am sorry…" He sighed internally back then, as he looked into the moon at the clear night sky sorrowfully, his last bit of emotions and empathy gone in that night.
He became a ruthless monster after that day, ordering his birds to hunt anything they thought they could take down, clearing the area of the Rocky Mountains where he lived from anything else. Only the monkeys were able to keep their territory, which made it more evident than within these mountains, two tribes of intelligent monsters that hated one another lived.
The Gale Bird Emperor was too shrouded in darkness at this point, now after having died so bitterly and resentfully, his soul was filled with hatred against Kireina and specially slimes… He had become a being of dark winds and shadows, his entire body encompa.s.sed the element of wind, darkness, and death, and it exuded it bountifully across his entire body. His feathers went from green to dark purple and black, and his beak from golden to completely black, his eyes changed as well, they were no longer emerald-colored, but deep red in color.
His entire body exuded a powerful Pseudo Supreme Domain of winds, generating enormous quant.i.ties of storms everywhere he flew, just like in those times when he could fly when he was alive… Although now, he was able to finally show to the world the hatred, frustration, and resentment within his heart.
Within his heart, there was but darkness.
But there is no living being in the world that is born with a heart of darkness.
The Gale Bird Emperor hatched from his egg when the Grand Forest had been enjoying several years of relative peace. The Emperors of the Grand Forest kept the Forest safe, and although the Spider Empress has always been a savage in all its generations, the latest one had been quite silent, and kept things for herself, even though she was still a ruthless monster, she didn"t dedicated to annoying other races of intelligent monsters in the forest.
Therefore, the Grand Forest and all of its native inhabitants enjoyed several years of peace and tranquility. The Gale Birds were a n.o.ble clan of Intelligent Monsters, said to be descendants of the Great G.o.d of Windstorms and Gales, they were powerful birds with great intelligence akin to that of humans, who enjoyed the blessing of the winds since birth and were able to soar the skies at amazing speeds, and to naturally manipulate the wind element and wind magic.
They were a n.o.ble clan, since its previous generations that the ancestor of the Gale Birds served the Wyvern Overlord in the Ancient Monster Kingdom that once was formed inside the Grand Forest, being part of the Monster Alliance of the Grand Forest, they were the protectors of the skies, a n.o.ble and regal race of graceful sky farers.
However, after the fall of he Kingdom of Monsters by the hands of the Hero Sol and his Hero Party, the Ancestor of the Gale Birds, known to have a power that was almost equal to a Hero perished by the hands of the heroes, the Gale Birds and the other Intelligent Monster Clans were forced to escape into the wilderness once more, leaving the city they built over many years into ruins, which then sank into the ground and turned into a dungeon after hundreds of years.
Since then, the regality, glory, and gracefulness of the Gale Birds slowly faded away as they were forced to work more like wild monsters would, or at most a tribe. It was now a taboo to construct buildings or bigger nests, as that would bring the attention of the d.a.m.ned humans who had destroyed all of their civilization back then.
Forced to become more like tribes of indigenous people than a larger civilization filled with pride and glory, the Gale Birds fell into obscurity for many years, slowly losing the grace and majesty they once prided themselves as the descendants of the Great G.o.d of Windstorms and Gales…
However, after generations, a special Gale Bird was born, one that sought to lead his people to glory once more, the Gale Bird Emperor"s father.
