Chapter 7 - A quick head start I suppose .

Sword :"Huh"?

Sakura :"Yeah you heard me you and I are going to leave".

A long pause I take it as an okay and we set out but there were still some questions on my mind .

Sakura :"So I have to ask are there anyways to get stronger"?

I walked as my clanking armour filled the silent air .

Sword :"Well dragons are one way to get stronger".

Uhm is she insane she definitely wants me dead or something no matter I gotta find out more .

Sakura :"So dragons eh well where are we gonna find one"?

Sword :"I have overheard that there was a gravely wounded black dragon on the run".

Wow black dragon Uhm no nothing comes up in my mind .

Sakura :"Black dragons"?

Sword :"Yes you really don't know huh well let me tell you dragons are classified according to their strength from the lowest having green colored scales and the highest having red and black is in a separate category".

Sakura:"Interesting and let me guess black dragons are the strongest but they also have the most valuable items correct"?

Sword :"Correct and everything inside the black dragon is useful from their scales used to make armour bones for cursed weapons like me and even their eyes goes to say everything has a use in the black dragon".

It seems like these things are one in a million it seems and likely everyone is looking for the injured dragon that seems bad having people's sights on you is a death sentence .

Sakura :"I don't know hunting one it seems very dangerous and having everyone after it is a very unsettling thing".

Sword :"I forgot to mention whoever kills the black dragon is going to have 100,000 gold coins as a reward and even excluding the game you'll get from it".

What did she say let's fucking GOOOOOoooo .

Sakura :"Ahem alright now then where should we start"?

Sword :"Well It's behind us".

Wha what a joke this girl really is....why is it getting darker despite the sun being here . I turn around and look at my luck it's a black dragon over 100ft long I wonder how it even sneaked up on me and it's long wings being larger than my previous apartment complex with it's scales having evident sword slashes but these seemed very superficial and it's yellow eyes looked over me like a god looking at a human . Alright If I make one step wrong I'll be breakfast for this thing do talk carefully .

Sakura :"My oh my what brings you here".

It struggled to talk for a bit wonder what it's thinking about .

(Black dragon POV)

I'm fucked aren't I this kid no this monster is emanating the most powerful aura that I've ever seen in my life I need to play my cards right otherwise I'll become merchandise in the market .

Dragon :"Well I se-".

He cut me off If it wasn't for his strength I would've eaten him by now .

Sakura :"Let me guess you sensed a powerful mana burst and came here looking for the source to eat It I presume".

I am fucked he read me like an open book he really is terrifying I need to get out of here .

Dragon :"W...well yes b-".

Huh I can't talk and why am I flying huh I landed at last why can't I speak he held my head and laughed at me he truly....is...te...rryfying.

(Sakura POV)

Sakura :"Whew this lizard really has tough scales hey well get them to make armour and then kill the dragon how about it".

Sword :"Uhm Sakura this is a black dragon".,

She said that in the most neutral dead tone ever .

Sakura :"This lizard is the black dragon"?

No way this thing is from what I've heard black dragons seem busted but I decide to go with the flow .

Sakura :"So we take the scales , bones the eyes and what else".

A moment of silence then she spoke in the same dead tone .

Sword :"Well can you give me a couple of bones to eat".

Huh I thought swords don't eat .

Sakura :"And why do you need them"?

Sword :"Well black dragon bones have a very high concentration of mana enough for me to transform my shape into whatever the wielder wants".

Huh what that's like so convenient for me well thank you for whoever got me a black dragon .

[I got you homie]

I grip my sword and cut the stomach in on slash with organs and black blood falling out I hurry to get the bones first for the sword . I cut the six ribs in in one slash and take them outside the dragon for her to eat them .

Sakura :"So how does this work exactly"?

Sword :"Well due to the powerful mana the bones have all you need to to is cut them and leave the rest to me".

Sweet it's like way too easy at this point .

I grab the six ribs and throw them sky high I grip the sword and with all my might I swing down cutting all the bones in two .

Sakura :"Alright but I'm getting extra bones for myself".

Sword :"What why am I not enough"?

Sakura :"Well it's no-".

Sword :"Please I'll be anything you want just don't....don't leave me".

Wow her issues goes deep like really deep but I need to reassure her about me .

Sakura :"Listen I'm not gonna leave you alright all I need is some bones for a crossbow that's all and don't worry I'll use you more than it".

Sword :"Hmmmm alright you promised remember".

I laugh as the red flag a over dissapated into thin air .

Sakura :"Done what next"?

Sword :"Clench me tightly please and close your eyes and think about what weapon you want".

I follow her orders and close my eyes .

Sakura :"So did we start"?

Sword :"Yes now think about what weapon you want".

Alright now time to think what weapon do I want while a great sword is tempting I really don't like the idea of 2 ton slab of steel on my back so let's go for balance between speed , strength and the last style . And I settle for the nagamaki .

[For those who don't know the nagamaki is a long sword typically over 60cm in length and is single edged while the grip is the same length as the blade it self . and by the way the mc is 60cm so yaay for oversized animo swords]

Now the blade would be black in nature and it's hamon would have irregular patterns along the edge of the blade and the grip would be made in dazzling gold covered in black silky wraps while the circular guard of the nagamaki would be gold as well . But wait what about a sheath I mean I don't want this masterpiece to get a scratch on her .

Sakura :"Say Uhm What about a sheath"?

Sword :"Well yes I can create a sheath to fit myself in you can create it as well".

Sweet this is the best alright let's me get back to our honest to god loving creation . Alright the sheath would be black as well while the entrance of the sheath would be gold as well as the end of the sheath and that's it I'm done .

[This guy is a certified weapon freak]

I open my eyes and it's just like what I've imagined beautiful .

Sword :"So do you like it"?

Like it I fucking love it LET'S GOOOOooooo .

Sakura :"Well yes but after all of that let me ask what's your name"?

Sword :"Uhm I...I don't have one".

Wow I guess her abandonment issues goes deep like really deep huh .

Sakura :"How about Singur".

Shit I didn't think about it at all please refuse please refuse .

Sword :"Alright but what does it mean"?

SHIIIIIT well I do have to be honest with her now .

Sakura :"It means to be alone but I chose it for the coolness factor".

Singur :"Singur you know it really is cool to say now that you've given me a name what's yours".

She said happily like a little kid in a candy shop .

Sakura :"Well my name is Sakura but let's get over the introductions as this corpse really stinks and I need my scales now".

Singur :"I'll be happy to oblige to your requests master".

Wait did she call me master I think not well let's ignore it for now at least . I walk up to the corpse and grab all the materials I need from bones , scales , claws , eyes and even the horns on it just in case .

Sakura :"Now where do I put this stuff"?

Singur :"Let me help you with that".

The items that I've held flew into the sword and dissapated into it .

Sakura :"Let me guess you have storage or something like that".

Singur :"You catch on as expected of you well now then shall we head out".

I like her she goes with the flow quick .

Sakura :"Alright is there any city that has a black smith that can make me armour"?

Singur :"Why yes indeed there is to the west they have a blacksmith and it about 50 kilometers so it's a short distance away".,

Sakura :"Well then shall we leave"?

Singur :"Always ready".

I sheath Singur and put her on my back as my journey begins in this unfamiliar land .
