The Heavenly Sword, is a legendary sword belonging to King Jumong, the founder of the Goguryeo Dynasty. This sword was made by a blacksmith named Mo Pal Mo. The specialty is that the sword cannot be broken. This sword also accompanied King Jumong to expand Goguryeo's territory.
It has now been decades since the death of King Jumong. Goguryeo is currently ruled by its third king, King Yuri. No one is allowed to own the celestial sword, even if it is a direct descendant of King Jumong.
In fact, none of the members of the royal family knew exactly where the celestial sword was hidden. They only know that the sword is in a cave in the Cholbon area or commonly called Jolbon.
The cave is also where Jumong is buried. The tomb keeper of King Jumong severed any ties with the royal family.
The tomb guard elder, an old man with a long beard, owned a martial arts college. No one had ever seen the old man in person. That elder's martial arts student guarding King Jumong's tomb. However, they are only in charge of guarding. No one had ever known the true form of the legendary sky sword.
This cave is also guarded by the chief decorator of King Jumong's tomb named Hye Ap. This woman is the head painter who makes carvings on every wall of King Jumong's tomb. Beautiful sculpture depicting the struggle of King Jumong to establish the Goguryeo Kingdom which is so powerful today. Mrs. Hye Ap lives with a girl in her twenties.
Until, one day it happened. The cave where King Jumong is buried is heavily attacked by the Dark Shadow troops. All the cave guards were massacred. Even Mrs. Hye Ap was killed because she didn't want to tell where the heavenly sword was hidden. Even so, none of the intruders had managed to get hold of the celestial sword.

Sitting gracefully in a simple teahouse, a girl took her order. Her clothes are predominantly light purple. Even though it looks simple, it can't reduce the natural beauty emitted by the indigo-haired girl.
The girl put the cup of tea near her blood red lips. The fragrant aroma of the strong tea can give you peace.
Not far from him, a jet black haired youth was watching. The young man's gaze did not leave for a second from the girl in the light purple dress. The young man displayed a mischievous smile when she was caught stealing glances at the girl with the indigo hair earlier.
Not bothered in the slightest, the girl took another sip of her tea, ignoring the young man's gaze. She was still as calm as before.
After a few minutes, a young man with silvery white hair approached. His eyes were blue as ice on the edge of the world. His skin is pale white. Without permission, he sat next to the girl while ordering a cup of tea from the waiter.
"Hey! Where have you been, Sister? I really miss you," said the white-haired youth earlier. His attire was also simple, showing that he was from among the common people.
The girl put her cup on the table. She glanced briefly at the silver-white haired youth who sat across the table. A genuine smile was etched on her full and parted lips.
"You're so funny, Brother. Didn't we just meet at the fork in the road. Why does it seem as if we haven't seen each other for years, hm?"
The young man chuckled. It seems his mode to always be close to his childhood friend failed.
"Ahahaha, you know that, don't you, Sister? It feels like every hour I have to see you to make sure you're safe and--"
"Brother even knows I am capable of protecting myself from anyone." The girl interrupted.
The blue eyed boy chuckled again. He felt really ridiculous right now. In the midst of his laughter, his gaze focused on the man in the doorway. The man looks striking with fiery red hair. He knew the man. Unbeknownst to the girl in front of him, he nodded at the red-haired man.
Now the silvery white haired youth's gaze returned to the beautiful girl in front of him.
"Oh yeah, I have some business to attend to, Sister. I'll be waiting for you at Joldon Fort as usual."
After saying that, the young man just walked away. He even ignored the waiter who had just brought his order.
Satisfied with enjoying the tea, the girl left. He left some empty coins on the table. He walked out of the teahouse without the slightest suspicion of the man who had been watching him.
This girl's name is Sharon.
