" I Dayan accept your crux." Those vow was made before the 'overseer' and no one is allowed to breach them, even us Envoys.
This woman is something else, her skills are superb and her strength is even above Ebony but she hid it. Having her giving me her crux means many thing.
The crux of some one is the very important thing of the being, you can say it like their soul. With the crux of someone you can do want you want to them. Modifying their memories, personality or even erase all of it and kill her.
But manipulating a crux is complex art and no one can do it lightly because doing whithout authorisation is wishing for annihilation. Years ago a clan emerged and they used the art of crux, it them who created those vows, but they were advanced in the research of the crux and one night all of them disappeared. some people say that it is the god of all plaines who descendend him self.
Haa history, boring.
" Hey you there do the same or die ." actually it's not this easy to take the crux of someone, it even impossible for someone who doesn't know that he have one you can't take it because it is invisible. Vows of crux are usually précoces in organisation on core members, to limit treason. And that my next goal, to have an organisation.
" I xxxxx Tarsis vow..." all of them vowed surprisingly " With your skills I want you to arrange here and find me in my room without no one noticing you." they are to notch assassins so yes they will find my room easily.
Right now I had to go and gain another knigh, of course I am talking about the female Knight.
~~~~~
Dayan arrived in room and saw blood on the floor, a trail of blood was leading directly in the bathroom. He approached the bathroom opened slightly and saw that the female Knight and Ebony were taking a bath together.
He didn't want to disturb them so he closed the door and sat in the couch in the living part of the room, opened a book and began to read. According to his experience women were creatures who liked taking baths and they took the longest time. so he didn't expect them coming out anytime soon.
Instead he decided to relax, but then the door of the bathroom opened and the female Knight came out only wearing a towel to hid her intimate parts. she went to the dressing room, when she passed in front of Dayan she didn't remark him at all. Dayan sighed because it was one of his bad habits to always hid his presence.
Dara flinched because she heard the sigh and turned to look at Dayan. She was stunned and nearly droped her towel. Dayan didn't even move, he calmly closed his book and looked in her eyes. With his experience in his past life he could easily read emotions in people eyes.
" Well miss Anderton..." she interrupted him and said. " Pardon my rudeness your lordship, but before you could reject me I wanted to express my deepest gratitude and my strong desire to be your knight and fight under your command, please use me as your sword."
She said all of this while kneeling down and looking down. She bit her lips in anxiety, she already know that she will be labeled as a traitor and hunted in this kingdom, but when Ebony told her how the Magus was killed she trained a bit of hope because this man didn't hesitate to kill a Magus for his subordinate, if he took her under his wing, she would be able to survive and seeing their strength she could even become stronger.
But all laid in the decision of this man right now. " Good. for starters know that I hate being interrupted and and the next time you will die..." Dara's heart tightened at those words." But your luck is good, I was pleased with your attitude during the fight... so congratulations on being my second knight."
He said this while approaching Dara and bit his thumb and put a trail of blood on her forehead."Rise Dara the crimson lighting."
Dayan was a man of culture and knew the importance of good title. He liked novels and has already decided that he will give all his knights cool titles.
______________
Dara felt nervous as the man approached her, he touched her face and lifted it. She couldn't resist even if she wanted. She remarked that he had big fingers and a long and sturdy arm and his mesmerizing silver eyes.
When he put his blood on her forehead she felt like she lock was shattered in her and a surge of energie entered her by her forehead. Then she hear her new name and new identity. She was so glad, as she finally found herself, she felt immense admiration for this man, she couldn't understand why she didn't see his greatness before. She stood up, faced him and then she understood she was no longer a weak human knight but now she was a dragon knights. little did she now that she will be a legendary figure in this continent, she will be known as 'the crimson lightning dragon'.
" My lord and master please make use of this lowly servant." She banged her knee on the ground and her towel fell, but she didn't mind. If her lord and master wanted her body she would be honored to serve him.
But Dayan wasn't at all aroused, he looked at her with a dignified gaze. Dara was again stupefied by his majesty and Charisma. She even blushed of excitement. " I presume that you know quite well the map of this region. I will need you tonight for something. For now go and finish bathing."
Dayan returned to his couch and opened his book and continued to read. Dara excused herself and went to take Ebony and they go to the dressing room and when she came out she was like an adventurer ready to depart. but then she saw many figure kneeling down before Dayan.
