Chapter 523 - Orgin of Achille Marozzo- Fencing Master

Cross, John, and Jesse were in the Northern Corridor which was guarded by Achille Marozzo- The Master of Fencing. Over the centuries many great men and swordsmen believed to be dead were not they were transported to the Realm Of Valadin and served many great kings and queens. However all these kings and queens eventually we're overthrown by The Council Of Fate Empire. Achille Marozzo was one of these great men.

The oldest known European fencing manuals date to the 1400s, but the most important early treatise didn't arrive until the mid-16th century and the work of the Italian master swordsman Achille Marozzo. His book Opera Nova (A New Work) is a compendium of Renaissance-era swordplay that boasts detailed outlines of fighting stances, parrying techniques and even instructions for how to defeat left-handed opponents. "You must never attack without defending, nor defend without attacking," he writes in one of the manual's early chapters, "and if you do this you shall not fail." Little is known about Marozzo's life, but he is believed to have come of age in Bologna and later made his name as the operator of one of the city's top fencing academies. One contemporary wrote that the Italian was "a most perfect master" in the art of sword fighting and "had trained an immense number of valiant disciples."

One of these valiant disciples he trained named Damien Ramirez from Spain tried to overthrow him. They engaged in a fierce and deathly battle. At the end of the battle was gruesome. Achille was missing an arm. Damien, on the other hand, was struck in the heart. Luckily for Damien, he was not the only valiant disciple that decided to go against Achille. Achille had many enemies including one of the Leaders of France around the time John Calvin who sent many armies after him. John Calvin made a very dangerous deal with Damien. When the armies of John Calvin were heading for Achille's School Of The Fence which where he kept his book Opera Nova which had many secrets inside, which John Calvin wanted to unravel.

The armies of John Calvin erased most of Achille's disciples which didn't betray him. Inside of his book Opera Nova held a crystal that could open rifts to other worlds and dimensions. He grabbed the crystal out of Opera Nova which was kept in glass containers guarded by his most trusted and strongest disciples. He wanted to take Opera Nova with him but didn't have enough time. They were right outside the walls of his Fencing School. He rushed out of the Fencing School and broke the crystal which opened a portal to The Realm Of Valadin. His most trusted and strongest disciples killed most of the intruders sent by John Calvin, but were eventually was overpowered and was slaughtered. He first served the King Of Linear but resigned. He then went to the Council Of Fate Empire and became a official Council Of Fate member. Achille watched Cross, John, and Jesse and sighed.
