Alex uses the Axe that he got from the meteor shower as his new work axe and he thinks that as he gets used to the feeling of this unusual axe he can train easier later on. "It's still weird that it gets lighter as I use it and the more I swing.
The sharper it gets... This is scary even for my work." Said Alex to himself as he reflect on the job he can do with this axe in the forest within a day. Through out the day he didn't break a sweat which started to scare him a bit since by the end of the day he should be tired after all the work he did and the training with the axe but he wasn't tired he feels like he could swing more and chop more it started to really scare him.
Night time in the forest and an intruder has tried to enter Alex's place but he was awoken by the noise of branches breaking around his home as he uses it as a means of alarm for wild animals and of course intruders. Alex grabbed the Axe and he felt different when grabbed it this time. He hear whispers this time hearing words like 'He's gonna take everything away from you', 'Use the axe', 'Strike him down'.
Alex was bothered by the voices this time but he just can't drop the axe now that it's hands right now. He can't let go of the axe, so he stood up and slowly walked around and he peeked around and saw 3 intruders.
In the land of Castle, home protection from intruders and home invaders murder is permitted by the homeowner or land lord. But Alex never killed anyone since his house has been unreachable to people.
So he crept around the house, until he faced one of them so he executes one of the Intruders. The second one tried to resist but Alex can't think about anything except to mow the intruders down. The second intruder tried to beg for mercy but his head was sliced open by another axe as he was thrown by an emotionless Alex.
As the screams of the second intruder before getting sliced alarms the final intruder which brings him into a panic as he saw the first intruder's head sliced. As the third intruder stumbles and falls to his back on a wall he speaks of why they entered his house.
"W-we-we we're just trying to steal back that axe you thief!" Said the final intruder as he maniacally shouts it to Alex but he didn't listen and finishes him off with the axe towards his skull. After that he fell asleep on the bed since he was near to it.
While sleeping he realizes what he has done and gets nightmares of what he did and wakes up the following day feeling scared even more by the Axe's power he grabbed his old axe for now as he buries the Intruder's body near by a riverside by the forest. But he feels restless after burying them as he hears the voice of the axe more and more. After that, he went straight to the Adviser for help with these voices and the urge of murder.
"Seems like the weapon reacts with your deepest nightmares." Said the Adviser as he looks at the Axe that Alex brought. "I keep getting voices, and seeing those images that I killed three people." Said Alex. "I know Mr. Alex this is just part of the weapon getting to know you and from what you did made the weapon really happy.
The weapon is powered by pure unfiltered raw violence, Mr. Alex you are destined to be this violent when problems arise. We still don't know what will be your Title but from what we fear is it could be something that changes the land and how people will perceive you after all you're this town's most helpful person. We can't do anything about it anymore at anytime at any point now the voices will only get stronger and it will communicate with you on how to acquire your Title and the steps you need to follow for the ritual of the Title." Said the Adviser.
Alex seems more worried about his ways changing now that he will soon become a title holder. "I know its worrying that you'll become someone you don't want to be but we can't really do about it anyways you'll become a title holder either way you did a blood pact with the weapon you must be really stressed out over this but I'll tell you this I was a title candidate also. But something happened with my title weapon that made me permanently a candidate only in exchange that I'll live a really long time.
There are still things that could change your conclusion on this topic, you could end up like me a permanent candidate and will never progress. For now rest and relax after what had happened to you I'm sure you're tired right now. Oh yeah, I never told you my name I'm Dr. James Worth. You can always come back here for advice after all I am the Adviser." Said Dr. James while patting Alex's back.
Alex goes home to finish up the final wood that he needs to do. Then he met up with the old man on the way back. "Hey Alex can you bring some more wood to my house I can't visit your workshop since I have to buy more goods." Said the old man.
"Oh sure I'll bring it over how many do you need?" Asked Alex. "Maybe 3-4 bundles that should be enough." Said the Old man. "Okay I'll see you around Mister Jones." Alex said his good byes for now and heads to his workshop to pick up the wood and carry it to the old man's home.
