on an empty beach filled with broken wood there was a girl, she had no injuries, but she was surrounded by monsters, not just any monsters, but golems, golems made of water, but the water golems did not attack her, instead they were guarding her.

outside of the ring of golems was a large amount of broken monsters, these monsters looked like they had been powerwashed out of existance, obviously, the water golems had done this.

"ugh, unsummon." as the girl raised her hand every water golem dissapeared, returning the beach to its original calmness, well, as calm as the broken monster bodies could look.

after the girls mind cleared up she realized she had a massive headache, causing her to almost fall over, but before she fell on the ground she realized something important.

"captain?! anyone?!" as the girl looked around her she began yelling for anyone while ignoring the pain in her head, as long as she knew the name of someone she would yell it.

but even after yelling for an hour there was no reaction, after this the girl felt like something was missing, she stopped and looked at her reflection in a shard of a mirror she found in the rubble.

the reflection was the same as she remembered, slightly pale skin, black hair, and black eyes, her clothes had some stains on them, but they were not damaged.

she tried to cast a simple fire spell, and a small fireball appeared above her hand, after looking at the ball of flames for a bit she destroyed the magic, causing the fireball to dissapear.

"i still look the same, my clothes are fine, and i still have my magic... so why do i feel like i am missing something?" the girl asked, but after thinking about it and getting no anwser she decided to give up.

"my current goal is to get food..." the girl said while her stomach grumbled.

...

a few days later the girl had not found food yet, and she was nearing her limit, now, there are two options, either she could wait on the beach for someone to save her, or she could explore the land.

the girl raised a hand and summoned a small army of golems, there were some golems made of rock, looking like they could both take and deal an insane amount of damage. there were a bit more golems made of flames, looking like the worst nightmares of anything not immune to fire. there were a few golems made of water, looking like just one could flood a small town. there were a lot of golems made of wind, their presence caused a small tornado to appear. there were ten golems that looked like wendigo, they had scyfes for their arms that looked sharp enough to pierce any defence. and finally there were five thin and tall humanoid looking golems wearing black tattered robes, they were wielding an insanely large weapon in each hand.

"now then, move out!" with these words from the girl the small army started moving away from the beach, into the forest where the girl would go through the harshest time of her life.

in a room in a massive mansion sat a girl, she was reading something when suddenly the door was thrown open by a knight.

"what happened?!" the girl realized that something is wrong by the way the knight was acting, this knight was her personal guard, and the calmest knight she knew, so something must be really wrong if the knight was rushing like this.

"an army is heading our way!" the knight answered with a hasty salute.

"an army of what? goblins? or maybe wolves?" the girl asked because these types of monster groups were not rare in this area.

"no! I mean an actual army, an army of around hundred golems!" the knight resolved the misunderstanding, since in the area they are in a large group of monsters is also called an army.

"then what is the problem?" the girl asked, since golems are not very strong and will fall apart if their creator is gone.

"the golems are being led by r-reapers!" the knight stuttered on the name of the creatures that were leading the golems.

"w-what!? how many? you said reapers, that means more than one..." the girl started panicking, even the strongest knights they had would have no time to fight back if they were attacked by a reaper, and that is if there is only a single one!

"there are five reapers, and they seem to have no hostility to each other, in fact, they seem to have some friendship between them!" the main reason reapers were not capable of destroying a country is because they would never work together, but now there were five of them in an army of golems!

"can we evacuate before they reach us?" the girl was trying to hold onto any bit of hope.

"that is impossible, that entire army is even faster than our fastest scout..." the knight wanted to say something positive, but could not think of anything that would help in this situation.

before the girl could react a commotion was heard from outside, when the girl and the knight looked outside there were knights surrounding two tall and skinny hooded figures, the only parts that were visible of their bodies were their hands and faces, their hands were sharp claws, while their faces were just skulls.

even though the hooded figures were outnumbered they did not seem to care, they kept walking forward to the door of the mansion, and even though the knights surrounding them were supposed to guard the area, they did not stop them.

not because the knights were lazy, but because the hooded figures were reapers! the reapers had already come so close to the town where the mansion was placed without anyone noticing.

a cold wind surrounded the mansion and a ghostly voice could be heard.

"we have come to ask for something" the voice said.

"will you let us in?" a second voice was heard.

these two voices had a powerful energy in them, causing the ones who heard them to feel fear, even the bravest knight was shivering.

when the girl looked at the knight beside her she saw that the knight had already jumped out of the window, and was walking to the reapers.

"Why are you here?" In a large room in the mansion the girl and the knight were sitting on the other side of a table from the two reapers.

"We need some ...Help" One of the reapers said with hesitation.

Smack! The second reaper hit the first reaper on the back of the head and then pulled its face to its own face and said something unexpected.

"We need to get help for our master! If you keep being like this they will not help us, and then our master will die!" The second reaper almost yelled, red flames coming out of its eye sockets.

"We can help, for a price." The girl said calmly, interrupting the second reaper that was about to start yelling.

"Really!?" Both reapers forgot what they were doing and immediately looked at the two humans.

"Ahem, I think we should introduce ourselves, we are reapers without names, what are your names?" The second reaper cleared its throat, or at least made a similar sound and said.

"I am Lilia Sharpsight, and the guard next to me is my sister, Eve Sharpsight." the girl introduced herself and the guard.

"So, what kind of help do you need?" Lilia asked curiously.

"Medical, our master has been in the Dark Woods for over a week now, at first we tried to find food, but there was nothing edible in the entire forest, we recently managed to find a way out, but now our master is in critical condition." The second reaper explained the situation.

"And what price are you willing to pay?" Lilia asked like a demon trying to steal a soul.

"Would this be enough?" The first reaper gave Lilia a necklace, it looked ordinary, but both Lilia and Eve were shocked.

Although this necklace looked like a string with a silver heart on it, it was a magical artifact, a really special one, it could save the life of the wearer once a week, it could make sure the wearer could not die for a minute, that was long enough to defeat a lot of enemies in combat.

Compared to the average life saving artifact that breaks when used, this necklace was like a godly item.

"If this is not enough, then please wait until our master has been saved, since we are not allowed to give any more by ourselves." The second reaper said with a hint of fear, the fear of the deal not being good enough.

But when it looked at the two humans it realized that its fears were useless, since the two humans were almost drooling while looking at the item used as a price, they were stuck in their own little world, a world where they could already see themselves covered in riches.

"So is the deal on?" The first reaper said with a hint of concern, it was concern for the amount of time this would take, after all, their master was in critical condition so taking action right now was the most important thing.

"Hmm? Of course! The deal is on, just bring your master here without causing too much trouble please." Lilia said with shining eyes.
