In a world where monsters rallied and owned most of the lands of earth.
A world where the strong takes over the weak, A world where death is the most common thing you see everyday.
Humans, who were mostly at the bottom of the food chain due to the other species unmeasurable strengths.
God tier Monsters such as Dragons and Titans capable of destroying a mountain, existed.
Elves which isolated themselves in the forest but had the strength to take over a kingdom.
Orcs, Goblins and Reptilians that mostly dominated the human territories by using their numbers as an advantage.
Humans where pitiful beings that was completely at the bottom of the shelf, Unlike the dwarves that did not possess any powerful abilities, But had the brains to make weaponry that could rival even a Dragon and a Titan.
But out of all the Humans that hid under the radars of the Stronger species, There was one, Who stood as the Representative of the Human Species.
A human that had gone through difficult measures to gain enormous strength that could rival the God tier monsters.
A human that discovered Ki, The energy that lies deep inside the Human body, That can grant extraordinary strength.
A Human which held the Title of the Strongest Man.
The Only human that Reached the peak of Swordsmanship.
He was already forty eight, But still had the strength of twenty men.
A human that shouldn't have existed, A human that hunts the predators rather than Hiding in the shadows.
He was called Arthur Lionhart, A commoner which never gave up and had extreme tenacity which led him to where he is now.
The human settlements which was invaded by the Monsters that rampart all around the world, Every kingdom that the humans had built where occupied by the monsters that suddenly popped out through a dimensional crack which led to a World of Humans called Earth, Collided and Fused with another world where Dragons, Titans, Monsters, Elves and dwarfs existed.
That's when Arthur, Who was Twenty at that time, Didn't want how the New world works, Where the Strong preys on the Weak.
And He forged himself and became the Sword of the Humans which led themselves to their Liberation.
After ten years of War with the invaders, They finally regained their world back, With the help of the Elves and the Dwarves they took down the Dragons and titans that controlled the lower monsters.
After the fall of the Dragon King, Dragonuv, and the Fall of the Titan King, Titanium.
The Monsters that followed their rules, scattered themselves and hid themselves on the vast lands of the New Earth.
The Humans, Elves and Dwarves finally found peace.
Arthur who was entitled by the humans as the King of their New kingdom, Made a non aggression pact with the Elves and Dwarves. An Alliance which Merchantry was the only thing allowed to visit since their Prides won't let them be if one was to be vassalized by the other species.
Arthur Lionhart along with his Greatest companion, Tristan Devon, Finally was able to rest after everything went peacefully.
...
....
...
Year 13 of the Lionhart Era.
After the War against the Strong, The people decided to redo everything from scratch and made a new era which was the Lionhart Era.
And at the thirteenth year of that Era, Arthur Lionhart, Who was the King of the LionHart Empire.
Was Assassinated and was killed by his Greatest companion himself, Tristan Devon.
....
...
..
Ugh..
Tristan How could he?
But how am I like this, Why is everything dark?
I'm sure I was dead and my head was cut by that bastard Tristan!
How am I still able to think like this?
I'm sure I was dead....
...
Human's greed sure isn't something to take your eyes off to.
I shouldn't have let my guard down....
I never had an ounce of doubt that my only comrade would be the one ending my life.
The strong should have not let themselves shown any weaknesses, That's the lesson I've got after I got myself killed, Tsk!
...
I, who built anew, and was able to let the humans survive...
I, Arthur Lionhart, Swear if I get another chance on life, Shall never show any weaknesses and never ever trust on anyone other than myself.
...
But...
If...
Only I get another...
Chance...
....
...
...
That's when A strange light occured on the darkness that enveloped my entire vision.
A Light so powerful that it could even blind anyone, But after that light became clear...
I saw leaves, falling..
From the Trees that I was currently lying at.
Strange white clouds enveloped the entire Blue sky.
It was just like the Sky I knew before the Monsters came.
But..
What happened to me? I'm sure I was dead.
I touched my chest and felt my heartbeat, The grass that I was currently lying at tickled my skin briefly.
It was a sensation that a dead person should not have been able to experience, It was like, As If, I'm alive.
Huh!? I'm Alive!?
As I stood up and looked around.
I was Alive!
The surrounding area was full of trees, Other trees were cut down.
Small houses were seen beyond further at my current location.
People who wore torn shirts, others who were topless, were working and cutting down the trees and were making lumbers.
"Where the hell Am I?" I asked myself.
"What do you mean where you are? You're at the Northern forest. Stop slacking and let's get back to work." As A child's voice spoke behind me.
"Huh?" I turned around and saw, A kid who had silver hair, blue eyes with long eyelashes and was malnourished, standing behind me.
"Hey? What are you dozing off Lance? Get up. Or the Chief is gonna be angry at us again." He said.
"Lance? My name is Lance? And who might you be?" As I replied and looked at my hands.
I noticed my hands were very thin, I touched my body. And noticed that I was a Kid on his tenth year.
"Lancelot Valentine! What are you talking about? Did you hit your head or something!?" He said.
Ugh...
I was reincarnated? Or did my soul transferred in another body? What the heck?
..
I don't have an ounce of memory of this Kid's body. All I can remember is my Life as Arthur Lionhart...
"Um, Mister where Am I? It seems I'm having an amnesia." I said.
"Huh? Who're you calling mister?! I'm your brother you idiot! Twin brother! Can't you remember me!? Lionel!? I'm Lionel!" As he shouted at my face without an ounce of hesitation.
"Oh, Lionel... But where are we? I mean where Am I?" I asked.
Lionel got anxious and grabbed my arm, He dragged me to where the houses were located.
The People who were working looked at us and started yelling that we should get back to work rather than running around the field.
Lionel explained to them that Me, His brother had a sudden amnesia and forgot myself.
So we were excused, and we went to the location where the houses were scattered around a small area.
As we ran towards the street, I saw the houses weren't in their best conditions. It wasn't even made with rocks, and were only wooden houses.
We ran deep further, beyond the wooden houses, there lies a Tent with some woods that acted as it's pillar.
"Mom!?"
"Mom!? Are you there!?" Lionel screamed.
"What is it honey? Why are you screaming?" A woman's voice replied.
As we got near the tent, beautiful white skinned hand grabbed the tent door and opened it, There I saw a silvered hair woman, Who had the qualities of a Goddess.
A Beautiful woman on her mid twenties, Light blue eyes, Long eyelashes, Sharp small nose and Cherry lips and had a slim and curvy body which no one will expect that she had two sons.
The woman that was supposedly the mother of this body.
"What's wrong Lionel? Why are you screaming?" She said.
"Mom, I think Lance bumped his head, He's saying he doesn't remember anything." Lionel Replied.
"Huh? Lance is that true?" She asked and held me in her arms like a baby who just got his first boo boo.
I feel embarrassed, To think a woman would hold me like this.
"Um, I seem to not know anything... Mother can you tell me what year is it now?" I asked.
I shouldn't tell them that I am a King that got tangled in this child's body. They might think I'm crazy if I tell them that.
"Mother? Oh.." She said while thinking that her son, Lance, haven't called her formally like that.
"So today's Year 172 of the Devon Era, Son." She said.
That's when my whole body flinched, After hearing the Last name of my murderer. The one I trusted the most, Got my body riled up and made me angry.
But devon Era? I'm sure it was the Calendar of Lionhart Era and not Devon.
And I seem to have transported in the future, I died at the Year 13 of the LionHart Era. And now it's Year 172 of the Devon Era? What happened after my death?
"Mother, Where are we? And do you have some mirror?" I asked.
My mother looked around the ground that we were sitting at, A Tent house so small that even five person wouldn't fit, And the bed was just straws that were piled around the floor.
"Here it is." She handed me a broken mirror which had cracks and missing pieces.
I looked at myself and noticed that I looked like the Kid that was sitting beside me. I'm really his twin brother...
But one thing was different, It was that I had a Scar on my Left eye, It was a scar that resembled a deep wound before, But I don't remember anything from this kid's body.
"So, We are at the Northern region of Devon Empire that's called Blue house, A village which the citizens are mostly slaves. Those who were indebt and couldn't pay are sent here to work for labor." She said.
"Huh? We're slaves!?"
I was shocked upon hearing her words.
I couldn't think that this beautiful woman would be a slave, And the most shocking part was that, It's Devon Empire. Did devon took over everything after my death!?
He killed me for some mere fame and wealth!?
"Yes, You see.." As she said while looking down, She had a sour face on her, A sign that she doesn't want to remember and talk about it.
"Bro, Our father the Baron of Salamander In the Northern countryside had sold us off due to his personal debt and gambling, He couldn't pay and made us slaves to pay off his personal debt. That old geezer!" Lionel spoke with rage, As it was the most gruesome thing he didn't like to talk about.
As we continued talking, I learned alot, They didn't question me after I said that I fell off the tree and that's when I had this memory problem.
My father, Salamander's baron, Lucas Valentine had two wives, The first wife, Helena Valentine who was the daughter of the Viscount beyond further below the Salamander town.
And The Second Wife, My mother, Elaine Valentine, Who was a commoner with outstanding beauty that attracted the Baron.
Helena had two sons and a daughter, which was the eldest.
And my mother, had us, The twins.
Due to the debts of my father, We were sent to the Blue house to repay his debt at the Government of Empire and made us slaves for the Empire.
It seemed that the first wife planned and made the baron sell us to clear his debt.
Humans truly are wicked creatures..
But that wasn't the most shocking part, There were more new things that I had learned.
It was that, The dragons and titans that were formally obliterated by me, Arthur Lionhart. Had returned to the New earth, New dragons and titans were back, I didn't know how it happened but this is something that we shouldn't ignore.
But after years passed, The King of the Empire, King of the Elves who ruled the Great Wisdom forest and the King of the Dwarves which ruled the western border of the Continent made a pact against the Dragons and titans to ensure their safety.
Since the new generation kings were weak unlike at my time.
The Newly named Continent, Versa, was cut in half, The Center which was the Mountain of Eden and beyond that lies the Dragon Kingdom along with the Titan Kingdom.
And a Strong barrier was made by the Dwarves that would not let a single monster, titan nor dragon enter.
Blue house is located at the Northern Side, Great Wisdom forest is located at the Eastern Side, While Dwarvon is located at the Western side, And in the middle, The center lies the Empire, The human territory and further south lies the Mountain of Eden which was no human, elves nor dwarves are allowed to cross.
And we are currently at the Blue house, Which is the Land of the Slaves, Elves, dwarves aren't discriminated here. Everyone are all the same, They're all slaves. The Northern Lands which the Three kingdoms argued on which one of them should manage the land decided to make the Northern side a neutral land which Elves, Dwarves and humans can make territories, and the most part was to make the Slave settlement called the Blue house.
"So do you understand now Lance?" My mother said.
"Yes mother, Thankyou for telling me." I replied.
As I looked around my hands, Nothing has changed and developed on this world.
It seems that Ki has finally been forgotten and only weaponry amassed on this past few decades.
Humans, elves and dwarves developed weaponry that would protect them. But the one thing that still existed since before my era, It was swordsmanship.
As I saw while running towards our home, Slaves were gathered and were currently training their swordsmanship.
"Come on Lance, Let's get back to work. So that mother won't need to work." Lionel said.
I guess, the lance before worked hard for the sake of their mother.
"Okay, Let's go no--"
Before I even manage to get out of the Tent, A guy was standing outside and was blocking the Door.
"Ahh, Sorry about that--"
As I looked above, I saw a man which had an angry look. A scar on his nose and had a muscular body.
After I saw him infront of our house, I felt and knew something bad was gonna happen....
Chapter End.
