Galaxy Wars: The Legacy of Light and Darkness

Rischa entered the dorm of Anasta while she mistook the place to be empty except for the two of them. Anasta closed the door then went towards the big table in the middle of the room, sat leisurely at the chair while glancing at her enemy like she was eyeing her best friend.

"Tell me what do you want, my dear sis?" Anasta asked, while her hand moved to touch a hidden weapon she put long time ago under the rounded surface of this marble heavy table.

"Nothing much, tell me what was the response from your superiors?" Rischa asked as she went to sit over the seat next to Anasta, while her hand crossed, as she held tightly the long thin blade she was hiding inside her long sleeves.

The two glanced warmly at each other, like two beloved sisters, not two enemies who were about to kill each other.

"Nothing much, just told me to stand put and wait for their response," Anasta said, lying to her enemy, despite giving a hint on her superiors attitude.

If they were like Rischa's superiors, they would have given her the order to sweep everything here and kill everyone. So, from these words Rischa knew Anasta would be her enemy, and thus she put her in the list of the enemies.

"How unfortunate then," she finally revealed her true colors, as she leaned over her while taking out her weapon. Just as she was about to slash the blade over the body of her enemy when a clang muffled voice erupted so sudden that startled her.

"Splash!"

The next moment, and just before she could glance down at her blade, another blade moved and insterted deeply into her chest, cleaving her heart in the center, leaving it wounded, and making the life dissipate slowly yet steadily out of her.

"Crack!"

She lost her balance, fell to the ground despite her effort to cling to the table. Her eyes showed how unwilling she was, but the next moment the other girls showed up, each from their hidden places.

"Here, take this blade and insert it each in her body; one attack for each one," Anasta handed the other weapon in hand to the nearest girl as she instructed them. 

A crime should be perfect, and she wasn't the only one against this force, but the other girls were also against Rischa force. The other girls understood what she intended by this planning of hers, and they didn't show any dissatisfaction at all.

As they all became partners in the same crime, and the one who led them into this, defended them and stood against the great danger was Anasta, she stood in front of her deceased rival, without any speck of sympathy.

She saw this fate coming long time ago, and so she never cared about any rivalerity inside the forces' girls; as she always saw them as part of her own. 

This wasn't an underestimation of Rischa, as she knew if she was in another force, even a meager one, she would be a worthy foe!

She wasn't weak, but her force behind her was foolish and stupid. If she could recruit her and make her flip the sides, join her faction and be her right hand, she wouldn't have taken the trouble to kill her and just would inform James about the stance of the seventh force.

But she knew more about this force, they never trusted even their subjects. So, each agent must be well controlled, guarded against any temptation of other forces by using anything dear and use it against him.

If there was none, then this agent would be exterminated, no matter how important and unique he or she was!

Such a cruel force worthy of the name of the black crows!

Simply like this, Anasta managed to claim the girls to her side, leaving Islinda, Dora, and Luna literally alone, on their own selves.

"Sorry Rischa, I really liked you and thought you might pose a considerable threat to me, however your superiors doomed your life, and you only have nothing but to blame them for what you have suffered."

Anasta said the last words to the terrified and shocked Rischa while her body lost its last strength and the life faded away from her body.

James was at the main palace hall at this moment, revising the latest reports coming from the spies Rigo had spread with the help of Islinda since the beginning of their life here.

The reports spoke about uneasy movements that their greatest enemy, the Terasos race, was currently doing. They didn't stop adding more factions to them, empires, kingdoms, and even merchants and dark forces.

However recently they started working towards their direction. There were vast distance separating the two from each other, making them secure for such a long time at least.

However the reports he was reading now had the new intel about their invasion of a kingdom not far from here, making this as a Trojan horse, a wedge his enemies were planning to use as long range base for future invasions.

"Sigh, it seemed I need to act more aggressive towards them."

He muttered when he saw Islinda coming, with such a gloomy face that she rarely used. He dropped the report in the screen in his hand, waiting for her to come to him.

And she wasn't alone, strangely Anasta was with her, and he noticed the marks of blood over the white gown of Anasta.

"What brought you two together?" he asked, as this alone was enough to make him feel speechless.

"There is something bad happened," Islinda was the first to speak, before sighing with her gloomy face and looking towards Anasta.

"Rischa's force had decided to go against you, ordering her to kill all of us, and we fought back and killed her."

She then stretched her hand, showing him the blade Rischa had tried to kill her with. James took the blade and noticed the engavement of the crow head over its handle. "Such a nice dagger was used to trespass over my own girls and my own interests," James muttered in a tone that made the two girls in front of him shudder.

James wasn't the weak ignorant young man who deserted from the military camp, running for his life from his enemies.

His personal strength, and his empire strength made him totally another person, one that could insert fear in the hearts of others, even if they were part of his own harem.

"Where are her body?" he asked.

"It's upstairs," Islinda said, before side glancing at Anasta for a moment, "I examined the scene, heard the words of the girls; what she said is really what happened."

"Make Rigo go and check her room, hack her own device and bring me the hard evidence," he said, before throwing the dagger on the nearby wall in a very aggressive move. "Now!" he shouted, and the two girls' jolted out of fear as they hurriedly left him alone, while giving Rigo his orders.

Rigo heard the news, and he wasn't surprised by them. he long anticipated this result, however what made him speechless and surprised was the reaction of the other six forces; they entrusted James and decided to strongly ally themselves with him.

As for the last force, he knew what his leader was thinking. "It seems one of the forces will be eliminated," he muttered before sending a short message to Dora. "Go and launch a huge investigation process at the dark crows, we will have a war soon with them," he also shared the message and the story he heard from Islinda to her, in addition to the small remark that he didn't care about, however it was had such a major impact over Dora.

"The harem had a fourth faction, and all the girls are now under her control."

This news were alone enough to make Dora speechless. The three never put the new girls in their eyes, however it seemed they underestimated them, doing such a grave mistake made them lose the initiative.

And now, the three of them were left alone with no one to follow!

"That's ridiculous! If there is no girl to snatch, I prefer to select more and gift them to him then, and build my own faction with my two own hands!"

Luna also received the news, however she didn't feel such frustration as the other two. after all, no matter how many factions and girls inside each were out there, they would all have to get closer to her so they would take many benefits.

However she also thought of the same idea Dora thought of, just like Islinda.

And strangely, the three who were strongly opposing to have any more girls for their man, decided separately to work hard to fill his harem with more girls, and this war was just in its earliest stages yet.

As for the next big war, James intended to make it a huge one, not just on one front, but on all fronts!
