Chereads / Anomaly's Reincarnation / Chapter 21 - Son of the Iskai clan(2)

Chapter 21 - Son of the Iskai clan(2)

The Iskai clan is one of the ten timeless clans that built this world to become what it is now. Yet, they are not there to hide all of them, so they won't be able to find the book. 

His clan is known for their ability to use mana and their heads are born with the ability to use that mana endlessly since they are not born with mana pools like the rest. 

Without a minute to spare, the boar comes charging towards him at a speed that shocked him, for a second, and before he could do anything, the boar breaks through the sword he instinctively put up, sending up back. 

'It wasn't fully reformed.' He realizes as he disperses the remainder of the sword left in his hand. 

Wiping the blood from his mouth, he notices it is charging towards him again with its head down reading for another attack. This time, just as it connects with his body a mana sword forms in his hands this time just as he wanted it. 

"That's it." He smiles triumphantly as the boar's head clashes with his blade. 

Tightening the muscles on his carb, he pulls away, shifting his blade to the flat side reforming it into a hammer, and slamming it at the side of the boar's head, sending it into the away. 

He knew that still wasn't enough, this type of boar is different, a steel coat boar moves with rage, and they can amplify the toughness of their skin to even as tough as steel if they feel a great threat against them, and even go into the state called. 

"Berzerk mood," Kensai whispers looking on as it gets back up, this time his eyes no longer red but a glowing golden. 

In a split second it reached up to him headbutting him to the side, and time the pain wasn't something he could ignore, it felt like the side of his ribs were being snapped in half. 

Launching up into the air, he tries to stabilize himself, while trying to ignore the pain he was experiencing at the same time. "I'm not going to die." He grunts, but before he can do anything, the boar is already on top of him slamming its head down on his back which sends him into the floor. 

A Gasp of concern immediately sounds as his mother stands to her feet with her mouth covered with her hands, while his father fixes his position worry apparent in his shocked expression, and even Hanz looks on in surprise. 

"Come on kid you can do it." He mumbles to himself. 

"I..." Kensai's voice trembles, as does his whole body. "I am mana." He gets up to his fight gripping at his side as he exits the crator he formed from upon impact. "I will become a hero, and become strong, so strong that I stop demons and monsters from seeping into this world." 

Blood drips from his hand at his side, which is now soaked with blood, however, he puts out his hand, his eyes gleaming blue, as a sword forms in his hands once more. 

The boar rushes forth, but he steps back as it passes him. For some reason now he can see its moves, it's more predictable, as he can also feel the mana endlessly pouring into his body. 

"I am mana!" He shouts this time making sure all of them can hear him.

Sliding his foot behind him, he dashes off and so does the boar, both of them clashing once again, this time it uses its neck which is tougher, like steel. Nevertheless, he wasn't going to pull away this time, he was going to make it slice through its neck. 

Mana spirals around it, making it glow a bright blue radiance, that makes the sword grow a bit bigger. "I am the head!!" He screams it out at the top of his lungs, just as he finally sinks his bald and inch deeper until it slides right past, the satisfying smell of the blood filling his nose, like a reward. 

A moment passes and he takes multiple breaths, taking in his win, just as everyone cheers out loud. "May the gatekeepers guide you to your afterlife," he said after dropping to his knees, and before he landed on his face, Hanz rushed out from the room he came from and caught him safely. 

"Kensai!" His voice is laced with worry. 

"How did I do?" He manages to say even as his vision becomes blurry. 

"You did good." He answers truthfully. "Good." Kensai forms a weak smile upon hearing it. 

"Kensai Iskai, next inline to head. His title is 'Mana's savior.' now bow." Everyone at once drops to their knees as he passes out.

"Welcome, Kensai of world Eternium." A voice greets him out of nowhere.

Opening his eyes, nothing but darkness greets him, a void devoid of any light. 'Where am I?' He thought while looking around.

"You have been chosen as the subject of Eternium to enter into the sanctuary." The same voice came to him but there was nobody around. 

'What do you mean first subject?' He asks while glancing around for the person carrying that voice. 

"You died." It says bluntly, just as the darkness is consumed with light, and as he lifts his head his eyes meet someone else, something that wasn't human. 

Standing before him as he knelt was a person with. Kansai gazed up, awestruck by the figure before him. Six grand wings stretched out like a celestial fan, each feather alive with a subtle, flowing movement, as though they were stirred by the very breath of the heavens

His form was cloaked in a gossamer sheen that shimmered with every shift, a radiant veil that caught the light and scattered it in delicate hues of silver and gold. Above his head, two intertwined halos hovered effortlessly, glowing with a gentle brilliance that cast long shadows across the ground, illuminating the sacred presence that seemed to transcend mortal understanding.

"What are you-" He realizes the words that escaped his mouth. "I...Died." His eyes widened as he looked at it, the faces of his parents, Hanz and his people flashing before him. "No..." 

"Call me Vitalis." The thing puts out his hands, but Kensai doesn't see it, the words dead replaying in his mind as many flashbacks of the fight replay in his head, the words he passed hung the air, but now he's dead. 

"I died.." He repeated as if repeating it might bring some logic to it. "I couldn't have died!" He pulls away his gaze from the floor to the thing in front of him. 

Dread immediately follows right after as he looks at it, this urge and feeling of death looms over him as if that thing might strike him if he says the wrong thing, so he stops trying to contain his emotions. 

"You want to return to your world?" Vitalis questions him. 

"Yes." He moves closer, "I need to go back." he pleads. 

"Then if you-" Something cuts him off. 

A familiar red light he knew all too well appears in front of him. This time, not a system but a boy. His body was covered in a red light, but his eyes were a bright red than anything. 

"He's lying! You can never go back!" The red person shouts, just as the same sword appears in Vitalis's. "Met the boy who looks like this!" The glowing parts just around his face reveal a boy with fair skin, blood-red eyes, and blond hair almost silver. 

"Why!" a portal opens up behind him, and just as Vitalis comes in with a strike, that stabs through his boy, he pushes him in. 

"You're a hero, right? " He screams. "Help him save us all." He mouths, just as the portal closes, leaving him falling from the sky.
