THE RISE OF THE KNIGHTS OF SINNERS

#3# BLACK MAGICIANS ORGANIZATION

3 Years after the second volume of the holy war, a secret organization emerged called the black magician or the people of Taiyoria and Hanaria called it Kokumajutsu-shi. It was a gathering organization of talented people who possessed magic energy without any elements.

Originally they were official organizations recognized by both the holy kingdom of Deusia and the kingdom of Angelusia. However, slowly the trust of the two holy kingdoms was lost after various crimes involving several members of the black magician. In addition, the investigation forces formed by the two holy kingdoms found several demon shrines performed by this organization.

During months of investigation, it was finally decided that the black magician organization was a heretical organization that worshipped the demon Kalia. A demon locked up in hell but half his soul wanders into the world in search of followers. The devil gave strength to the humans.

After the dissolution of the organization, it caused new problems for the world. Instead of disbanding, all members of the organization choose to become criminals. They robbed and harmed civilians in various kingdoms from the western to the eastern continents. To his surprise, the organization used a poison previously mythologized that the poison belonged to the demon king Kalia.

The poison is called fire poison and there is no cure. Even the goddess Grecia almost died from the poison while fighting the demon Kalia. Fire poison is a poison that burns all organs in the body and if the physical exposed to the poison is not strong, then only buth hitunga seconds until the poison kills the victim.

The top officials of the western and eastern alliances met several times to discuss the organization and formed a joint force in charge of hunting down the members of this organization. In addition, the two alliances also conducted joint research to find the antidote to the poison. All scholars and alchemists of various kingdoms were called to carry out this task, one of which was Aiden's marquis wife, Miss Yukari. He was a very talented scientist and alchemist.

During the 2 months of the hunt, countless members of the black mage organization were caught and killed, but not a few were also the joint forces that were killed by the fire poison. But there is good news that scientists and alchemists have succeeded in creating a drug that reduces the effects of the poison. Although it can reduce the effects of poison, the poison will still kill the corps slowly.

In the early spring the marquis's entourage was about to have a trade meeting with the Cronix empire. The entourage contained Marquis Aiden, Miss Thalia, and young master Leonard. They were escorted by a Cavalry line and an infantry force of 1000 men. At the beginning of their journey there were no obstacles whatsoever, but upon entering the dense forest in the border region of the Cronix empire, they were confronted by the members of the black magicians. The witches fired fiery poison arrows at Aiden's marquis.

Marquis Aiden and the unprepared troops faced a panic attack.In the dark forest, they tried to find the members of the black magician organization who continued to attack them from behind the darkness. Slowly one by one Aiden's marquis troops fell down because of the poison fire arrow. 12-year-old Thalia also attacked members of the black magic. However, the members of the black magician benefit from the darkness of the night which allows them to subvert the entire army of marquis Aiden and only leave the marquis with his 2 children.

He was pierced by a sword in his stomach and the sword was already being drained by the fire poison. Marquis Aiden felt a tremendous heat inside the tuuh and the membaut yelled as loud as possible. Amidst the pain, the black magician member who stabbed marquis Aiden was about to behead the marquis. And unexpectedly, Leonard jumped while flinging his brother's sword into the black magician's neck. The witch fell with her head cut off and blood soaked Leonard's body.

Marquis Aiden was immediately hit. The members of the black magicians hiding in the darkness of the night instantly appeared. They were about to kidnap marquis Aiden with his two children. However, fate said another, thanks to the cry of marquis Aiden earlier, Cronix's troops who happened to be on night patrol at the border not far from where the marquis Aiden came and surrounded the members of the black magician.

Marquis Aiden and his two children were immediately taken to a nearby town and Marquis Aiden was given a drug to reduce the effects of the fire poison. The incident that happened to them made Leonard suffered trauma and severe mental damage. It all happened because Leonard first saw people being slaughtered and the first time he killed.

A few days after the tragedy, the top brass of the two alliances began to wrath and eventually added various divisions of joint forces to hunt the organization. In addition, civilians may also hunt them in exchange for 30 gold coins by the head of the organization if they manage to catch them alive or dead. Until the hunting forces of the black magicians were formed. The hunters were a group of civilians who participated in the black witch hunt. To recognize the parra of black magician members is very easy because the members of the organization usually have a black skull-shaped tattoo on their chest.

Less than 2 years of hunting, as many as 10 thousand members of the black magicians were killed and the hunt was ended by the capture of 5 leaders of the organization in the Zehlicka kingdom located far southeast of the Hanarian kingdom. Actually, the hunt was mostly not targeted because of the 10 thousand killed, it was mostly the civilians themselves who were only suspected and burned alive without looking for evidence first. And actually the number of black magician members is only 6 thousand people.

After the end of the hunt, there were no more cases of robbery that caused the victims to be exposed to fire poison. There were only ordinary robberies carried out by forest bandits and mountain bandits. However, the antidote for the poison has not yet been discovered even though thousands of scientists and alchemists have been researching for years.

Merely, the existence of the rest of the members of the organization was still roaming around the world. They were still trading fire poison at a high price. Although special forces have been formed to hunt them down, still looking for the rest of the organization's members like looking for needles in a pile of hay.
