"Gillian, ain't my sword ready yet?"
A voice said from afar.. talking directly to the dude who stood by the fire, his head bringing out an enormous amount of sweat…
Cling Cling Cling…..
The hammer hit on the steel so hard that the lava covering it fell off, thus producing a steel like no other….
"No sir, gimme a bit.. I'll be done soon" Gillian replied with a slight bit of smile on his face as he got back to work.
"Alright lad, just don't stress it too much"...
(6 Hours Earlier]
Immediately Gillian entered, Delphi escaped through the window close to the side, leaving leaving Xerxes for Gillian to handle..
"You Must have a death wish facing me like this?" Xerxes said with a chuckle on his face…
"Death wish? Are you perhaps talking to yourself? Gillian said… trying to sound rude…
"Enough talking, let's go!!" Xerxes said as he brought out his large sword…
It was more like 10 swords added together…, he made a strike towards Gillian from the side, aiming directly for his waist while twisting in the air to make a direct impact…
But his attack was skillfully dodged by Gillian who had no training of any such…
He quickly knelt down, while bending his head away from the sword directed towards him and then used his palm to Hit the ground which gave him force to get up..
"Who taught you lad?" Xerxes asked, sweating furiously whereas the fight had hardly began…
"I don't mean to ask but, did you train to master this shady skill of yours?" Gillian said with a slight smile on his cheek.
Ahhh…
Xerxes quickly rushed towards Gillian while he was still talking…
He removed the other sword from his back and attacked him from both side.
There was obviously no way Gillian would be able to Dodge that, but Gillian Thrusted in the air, letting out a shockwave of energy from his body…
A sword appeared on his right hand…, the sword was embedded with a locust symbol on the edge…
As he fell down, he lit up the sword with enormous energy, and aimed it directly towards Xerxes head…
BAM!! The energy released itself directly towards Xerxes, cutting him in half…
Blood splattered on the ground, some on his body..
But one thing was sure… Xerxes was dead…
"Are You Guys Okay?" Klarissa said as she stormed in, accompanied with a bunch of men on green….
"Protector? You guys are getting all this wrong, whatever this is on my body… it's not meant to protect a village!!! Although I might not know what it actually is…
But that's for sure.." Gillian said as he stood weakly facing Xerxes throne….. the sword in his hands disappeared into tin Air….
"What do you mean, that's how the artifact has been used since ages.. do you even know what you're saying?" Klarissa asked as she walked slowly towards him..
"It's not an artifact, it's a system" Gillian roared angrily..
"My system…. Okay?
"It's not up to you to tell me how to use it…, I almost died just now.. and where the hell where you when I was fighting Xerxes?" He continued….
"Gillian, you made the plan… and the plan was that we stay outside… wasn't it? She asked calmly….
"The plan included you, you were supposed to fight him with me… you know what…? I'm done…
I'm going home!!" Gillian said as he walked out of the place….
As he was going, something popped up his from…
It was like a virtual screen and a voice the ran down from his spine to his ear…
System Online.
User: Gillian Rolthier.
Battle point: 200
Skill Tree Unlocked: [Shockwave Blade]
"Can you guys see this?" Gillian asked as he made a stop while heading out.
"See what?" patto asked as he just walked in..
"Nothing.. Gillian said as he walked out…
So the system is only visible to me? He thought as he left…
It'll be a bit strange if everyone Could see it though.
[Back To Present]
The system appeared, then he saw a section called Store by the side, it had a little red dot on top… signifying that he had acquired something new there.. it was a potion that can solitiarize the sword and embud more magic on it…
He dipped his hands and reached for it, and suddenly the bottle appeared on his hands, he added a drop to the lava he used for crafting and then added some finishing touches to the old man sword.
"I don't mean to ask, but sir are you going to use this sword? Ain't you a little bit too old to wield a sword?" He asked from a distance away, he dared not get any closer..
Older men like the the client tend to make a fuss out of everything.
"It's not for me, it's for my daughter… she's the newly elected general of the king's army…, I thought if I'd give her a gift.. it'll be a sword from our village greatest Black smith…" the old man said…
"Oh, now I get… where should I put the sword? He asked as he scoured the area to find a suitable place close to the man, but everywhere was surrounded by meat and dirty water.
"How bout you give it to her for me?s she'll soon be here… I can't stain it with my dirty hands Ehei!!" The old man said..
"Alright then, no issues… he said as he held on the the sword and headed right back for the forge…"
He dropped the sword on the large wooden table that was there and assumed his position there… facing the sword…
The only thing special about that table is the little secret box that was hidden at the leg of the table
"Make way for the general, he could hear a voice shout loudly from far away…
That's supposed to his daughter Right? He asked himself whilst walking out to hand her the gift like has been instructed to do.
