Date: Æ1289 21, 3

The Sun is rising. Gakushin Gakure is walking on a straight path towards the Kingdom. Suddenly he hears footsteps coming from his behind.

He continues to walk and he sees 2 soldiers running back towards the Kingdom. Someone taps him on his shoulder. He turns around.

"What are you doing here?" Gakushin Gakure said as he sees Trixie and Miki both wearing a hood.

"We're here to help not to get into any trouble," Trixie answered. "Let's go with the guards they might not notice us if we keep walking," Miki said as Gakushin Gakure lead the way as they walk.

"We're splitting when we got inside, remember don't die!" Gakushin Gakure said as Trixie and Miki are getting goosebumps. They looking at the giant Kingdom in front of them. Seeing the main castle in the far distance and the docks outside the kingdom to its right.

"The kingdom is quite prosperous, this is impressive!" Miki said as he continues to walk and look at the kingdom. A farmer notice them and started walking right at them.

"Looks like you guys are new around here? Are you three travelers?" The Farmer asked as Gakushin Gakure, Miki, and Trixie stop walking ang turned to the farmer on their left.

The farmer looked at both of them except for Gakushin Gakure that did not turn around on him. "You guys have swords you might need to hide that, it's in the law of our kingdom that bringing swords is illegal you might get executed..." The farmer said as Trixie backs up.

"We're uhmm... Visitors from another village, we would like to know who runs this place and talk to him peacefully or just maybe not," Miki answered his question as the Farmer gets curious.

"I'm just a farmer here so, you guys are new around here better hide your swords, oh yeah my name is Alfred," the farmer said who is named is Alfred.

"Thank you for your help," Miki said as he shakes hands with the farmer and walk away. "Gakushin Gakure didn't you hear what just that farmer said? Hide your sword!" Trixie said as she hides her sword back of her hood inside. Miki did the same as Gakushin Gakure didn't hide his sword and remains outside.

He continues to walk. "You're getting us into trouble," Trixie said as she tries to stop Gakushin Gakure from walking. "I told you two to not come with me, but both of you need to be more educated, both of you are inexperienced," Gakushin Gakure said as he looked at them both and turned around and look offended by what Gakushin Gakure said.

"Now what? Wait the guards are coming Gakushin Gakure!" Miki said as Gakushin Gakure looked at them as he stand aside and hide his sword.

The guards run past them as the guards continue to run. "What are they running for?" Trixie asked as she looked at the guards behind her running away.

"Trixie goes back to the ship or follows the guards to see what's happening," Gakushin Gakure answered. "I don't wanna!" Trixie said as she walks straight past Gakushin Gakure.

"I'll do it, I'll be going back to the Ship too to see that they're safe," Miki said as he walks back. "Let's go what are you waiting for?" Trixie said as she looked at Gakushin Gakure.

They continued to walk. In the west. Shikari Gakure Himura Kiri and Teramoto Judikishi reached the west heads.

"Kingston, do you know about the kingdom in the far northwest?" Himura Kiri asked as he walks into the room of the heads seeing the Generals and the other heads with him talking.

"I don't know what are you talking about," Kingston answered as he sees Shikari Gakure comes in with him in the room with blood stained on his clothing.

"Why are you?... No what is happening?" Kingston asked. "They eliminate a whole kingdom they killed the Queen," Himura Kiri answered.

"What is this outrageous Shikari Gakure!? We've been expecting peace, not another war!" Kingston said furiously as he stands up.

"Stand down Kingston let him speak first before you started getting furiously," the General of the fifth army said.

"He killed a Queen in a Kingdom! What do you want me to expect to do laugh at him?!" Kingston said to the General furiously as Shikari Gakure started talking and walking towards the table.

"The Kingdom is getting rule by a false Queen, he killed Rikezi while protecting the Queen from Darks, the Queen stabs Rikezi in the back as Rikezi defend the Queen, and I found out that the Kingdom itself is the traitor, one of the 8 existing Kingdoms in Far," Shikari Gakure said as Kingston sits down on his chair stunned.

"I believe that they kill all the soldiers or let's say, Knights of the Kingdom, that getting ruled by the false Queen, Monoke Gakure and Ria Koruwe are one of the people who finished the ruling of the false Queen," Himura Kiri said as Monoke Gakure walks in ang goes toward to the side of Shikari Gakure.

"We killed all of them except for the kids, I've seen a lot of parents sacrificing their kids to survive, they throw their children right in front of me to just distract me as I walk towards them," Monoke Gakure said as he eats something.

"We don't know that the Kingdom exists in the far northwest, Shikari Gakure how did you know that there's 8 Kingdom?" Kingston asked as he looked at Shikari Gakure on the other side of the table standing with the sergeants.

"My master speaks about these things called Glacians and the Extersium Planet that been hidden in a long time, Glacians are the long living creature can live for more than 500 years or more than," Shikari Gakure said as everyone in the room got curious about the Extersium planet.

"We heard that Extersium Planet before but we don't know it's a story or what it is, it's known because of Ria Koruwe spreading the news," the General of the fifth army said.

"You know Ria Koruwe?" Kingston asked as he stands up and looked at the fifth general. "We got information that she's the one who spread the Extersium Planet and got confirmed by Shikari Gakure master a long time ago," the General of the fifth army answered as Kingston sits back down.

"Even though I heard this from my master, the Extersium planet existence still not known for the past years," Shikari Gakure said.

"Monoke Gakure I know that your the one who's been with Shikari Gakure's master a long time ago," Kingston said.

"I was there when the village was attacked by Unknown Violet Dark Aura's but after that, an explosion occurred erasing the whole village," Monoke Gakure said as he lowered his head down.

"How did you manage to survive? Are you saying that the people either have died?" Teramoto Judikishi asked as he jumps into the conversation.

"You all know little about what happened in those small villages but still no one risks their lives just to know what happened in these villages! The big nations ignored the small villages that ended up big trouble for them back in the last few years!" Monoke Gakure said furiously.

"You're not answering the question how did you survive?" The General of the Third army asked as he drinks he's tea that is on their table.

"I survive because I'm one of the Unknown Mask of Shikari Gakure master, like Soldier Æ the one that also hidden through all this year's, we can live for more than a hundred in twenty years, I manage to escape because this mask can deflect explosions and unknown energy and defend myself and can heal myself but this mask is powerful than you thought and that's why we called ourselves Unknown Mask," Monoke Gakure said as he heavily breathes.

"You survive because of that mask, what happened to the kingdom and its castle?" Kingston asked as Shikari Gakure slowly walks towards the door going outside.

"We destroyed the castle and killed the Queen before we leave, we can't let a filthy traitor live long," Shikari Gakure answered as they looked at him leave the room.

"Monoke Gakure... Do you call killings a little much?" Kingston asked as he sees Monoke Gakure breathes heavily. "No, we have our reasons to terminate the Kingdom, Ria Koruwe destroyed the castle and the walls, to kill the people, not on our hands," Monoke Gakure answered.

"The Greats go to the far northwest to check the area with Ria Koruwe, they're currently in the place by now," Himura Kiri answered.

"The other Greats are in the front gate, on guards, we lost more than a thousand men's, before the end of the Æ we should give this soldier their rights and honors and the salary for their loved ones," the General of the fourth army said.

"I'm the one who will be working on that, Generals you all will be the ones who will give the honors to the swordsmens and soldiers that have died," Kingston said as everyone in the room lowered their heads down to give respect.

In the far northwest. The other Greats are walking in the middle of the forest as they see blood splattered in the distance.

"We're almost there," Agatsuma Hit said. "I can't believe we lost in the path," Katrina said as she facepalms. They looked at the far distance. Seeing a brick path and a light post.

"This is where might be the Kingdom that Shikari Gakure and Monoke Gakure ended because of the false Queen," Agatsuma Hit said as they continued to walk.

"All I know is that I heard rumors about a traitor but I'm not expecting it to be a Queen or a Kingdom," tsuyuri said.

"Let's run we don't go here all day," Agatsuma Hit said as they 3 all run towards the brick path. As they run they're seeing a lot of dead bodies on the ground and stabbed and decapitated. As they continued to run there was an unknown Dark Aura in the tree hiding in the shadows.

Suddenly Ria Koruwe throws her scythe into the tree with a chain attached to it. "Ria good thing you find us we got lost, were sorry for the inconvenience," Agatsuma Hit said as they stopped in the brick path looking at the forest staying on guard.

"Who's there? Get out!" Ria Koruwe said as she sees something is walking out and suddenly it grabbed its scythe and throw it back at her. She grabbed her scythe as she grabbed her scythe she spins her scythe in her hands.

The Unknown quickly vanished. The 3 greats are stunned as they see the skills of Ria Koruwe. She put her scythe on her back and walk with the greats.

"It's been a while since I see a scythe user or know one at least," Agatsuma Hit said as they now run. "Hahaha! Good thing you find me because I'm probably the only scythe user in this world my master Kuro vanished and she's the one who can forge a scythe," Ria Koruwe said.

"The Scythes that built by Kuro is impressive I'm not expecting to meet one, she's one of the masters but her skills are more than others," tsuyuri Shi said.

"Sheesh looks like your a big fan of my master Kuro, Haha!" Ria Koruwe said as she laughs. Tsuyuri Shi said as he smiles at Ria Koruwe behind him.

They see the end of the forest and the end of the path. Seeing a broken-down wall and a castle in the distance. They stopped as they looked at the broken kingdom.

"This is a catastrophe," Katrina said as she was stunned as she looked at the kingdom and its castle all falling.

"Well it's getting ruled by a false Queen, the people inside were also stupid and doesn't have common sense and doesn't know how to look at the mirror," Ria Koruwe said. They looked at Ria Koruwe that was behind them and she looks like furious.

"Well we have nothing to do with it now, I'm just gonna check that kingdom, Ria, stay, for now, we can handle this, we will come back here when we're done," Katrina said as the 3 greats vanished leaving Ria Koruwe alone.

In the west. Shikari Gakure walks out in the facility of the heads. He walks outside as he looked at the sun above. "This village goes back in a peaceful one," Shikari Gakure said modestly.

He walks in a stone path with a lot of people walking on the other side with their sons. As Shikari Gakure walks he sees something in the distance. A restaurant in the west.

He quickly goes to the restaurant to buy something to eat with more people coming towards the restaurant as he quickly walks towards it.

In the north. Kishu is walking and wandering around the houses as he watches a prime cube in the middle of the village. Suddenly someone swoop in and appeared in the middle.

"I'm here, Kishu, give me the thing," an Unknown Voice said as Kishu walks towards the Unknown who has Dark Particles on its body.

He gives something lighting on its hands and suddenly it turned black as the Unknown touches it. Suddenly the unknown vanished as Kishu deactivate the prime cube holds it and walks away.

Suddenly in the hands of Kishu, the Prime cube vanished. The Unknown vanished as Kishu walked away as nothing had happened in the place.

In the far south. Gakushin Gakure is walking in straight with Miki in the front gate of the Kingdom. "We're here what do you expect to happen?" Trixie asked as she whispers to Gakushin Gakure.

"Could you just be quiet for at least a minute or your life?!" Gakushin Gakure answered furiously and goes back modestly again as Trixie pinched Gakushin Gakure in the cheek.

Gakushin Gakure ignored Trixie as they reached the front gate and the guards are looking at them. Gakushin Gakure nodded at the guards and the guards let them in.

The Gate is opening. The gate is completely open, they walked inside. Gakushin Gakure is with Trixie that is on his right side. They walked in the middle of the gate seeing people and houses inside and some vendors.

Gakushin Gakure and Trixie and stunned. "First of all, that's so easy to get in we should do that next time when raiding a village with Dark mobs inside," Trixie said as she whispers.

"Hey! You too get moving there's more coming get out of the way!" The guard said as they turned to their right and sees the guard with full-body armor and a sword.

Gakushin Gakure and Trixie turned and see a horse with a special thing attached to the horse with a rope and in the back of the horse is a lot of cereal grain from the fields.

Gakushin Gakure and Trixie step aside. "We should quickly leave here before they notice us," Gakushin Gakure said as they hide in the horse's side.

They quickly got out of the gate. "We need to get in somehow in that castle, I think we should split, for now, stay quiet Trixie," Gakushin Gakure said as he vanished in the shadows.

"Huh?! He's gone? Now what," Trixie said as she looked around and sees many people doing some kind of work. Trixie walks in a path towards the castle in front.

She sees a lot of people going in, in the castle, she sees a couple of swordsmen guarding. She hides her sword properly as she continues to walk.

Gakushin Gakure finds a place inside the kingdom where there are a lot of shadows because of the big house. Suddenly a guard walks into the side and walks by past him. He ignored and both walk away and passed away from them.

Gakushin Gakure stops and quickly turns around and sees that the guard stop and looked at him.

"Are you a civilian of this Kingdom of Kazuchi?" The Guard said as he turn towards Gakushin Gakure.

"No, but I'm a visitor from another continent I'm here to visit and to know your king," Gakushin Gakure answered.

"I can guide you to the king but I need to make sure who you are. Guards!" The guard said as he shouts and a lot of men appeared covering the path and the roof, appearing some of the knights and soldiers of the kingdoms.

"What's your name?" The guard asked as Gakushin Gakure pulled out his sword. "My name is Gakushin Gakure from the other continental east, listen I don't want to hurt you all," Gakushin Gakure answered as some of the soldiers laughs.

"My name is Garnett, one of the knights of this kingdom now I wanna know who you are and the soldiers that are here," the guard said who is a knight and name is Garnett.

"Garnett you don't wanna do this," Gakushin Gakure said as he sees Garnett slowly coming towards him and holding a sword.

Gakushin Gakure quickly goes serious and positions in undefended as he holds his sword on his right.

"Your inexperienced kid!" One of the soldiers said on the roof that jumped down behind Gakushin Gakure. He quickly kicked backward making the other soldier back off. Gakushin Gakure kicked him destroying the wall behind.

The knights and the soldiers suddenly stop as they see Gakushin Gakure kick one of the soldiers and destroy the thick wall behind him.

The knight that is coming right at him suddenly stopped and was stunned as he drops his sword.

"Impossible!" Garnett said as he stopped and suddenly knelt and terrified. Suddenly unknown men start walking towards Gakushin Gakure. The soldiers give away as a big man starts coming towards him and have a sword on his back that is bigger than Gakushin Gakure.

"Can I join?" The Unknown big man said as he easily pulled out his sword from his back. Gakushin Gakure turns around and sees the guy. He quickly goes into a defensive position as the big guy looked at him smiling.
