Chapter 10
One of the elders told him it was Rytha his older brother who had killed his parents and slaughtered other clan officials plus the warriors, he also killed and the guards at the entrance.
"Impossible!"
A kaguya was furious, due to the evolution of the Tenagen to the second stage he had grown taller now it was easy for everyone to forget that he was seven because his height was that of a fifteen years old boy kaguya was five feet five, in just a matter of minutes his entire physique had changed as if it had undergone puberty. This was due to the expanding soul core in his soul, which meant that inorder for his soul core to expand his body had to change inorder to accommodate it. And for the Shirohaga Clan it happened at a rapid pace thanks to there inert lineage attribute the Tenagen.
Kaguya continued with his protest.
" Brother Rytha might be everything but strong, tell me the truth! What happened to my parents?...can someone please tell me what happened to my parents.....why do I have to be left alone huh "
None of the clan elders answered him. The fire continued burning as the the day was coming to an end, the clouds now turned crimson by the illumination of the sun felt so ominous, while kaguya now knelt down crying.
......
A lithe young boy sat on the ground in the middle of a forest completely spaced out and unaware of his surroundings. It was Rytha he fell on the left side and landed on soft green grass, Rytha closed his eyes.
'what's the use of living, I have never had a good life anyway everyday meant that I was either going to die on try to leave , honestly I am tired.'
Sigh.
'look at me a ten year old boy thinking about dieing how very unpleasant but please tell me what else should I do. Why else should I live.'
The wind brushed Rytha's skin and his garment, the trees rustled and then a hazy and very unsettling voice spoke.
" Child what brings you to this retched land ?"
Rytha opened his eyes and sat upright he stared at one of the trees in bewilderment and asked in a cautious voice.
"Mr tree did you say something?"
There was silence in the air as the only sound came from the slowly rustling trees. But then after some time the voice spoke again.
"Child why do you wish to die ?"
Rytha gave a hard stare at the tree and answered.
"Mr tree if I give you my answer will you tell me who you are ?... I want to die because I am so weak such that I can't even use magic the most basic ability, for this reason I can't grasp magicles or soul essence. And I was accused for murdering my parents."
The voice spoke.
"Hmm... You must live...child, no you have to live because you are weak, being weak is never an excuse."
Rytha shrugged.
"But Mister tre.... But Mister I am the weakest of the weakest I can't survive in this Cruel world "
"Then get strong ! You are here because the strong never cared about you and the weak thought you were of no use. But make no mistake you're not a failure you're just weak."
"Mr who are you?"
At that moment the voice shared a vision with him, a vision of a man in a cave chained with his knees to the ground his eyes where covered with a cloth inscribed with dark runes that hurt Rytha's eyes at the mere sight of them, so he quickly looked out away. The whole cave was emerald in colour and the being at the center of it was adoned in emerald garments while his hands where chained parted away from each other to the sides.
The voice spoke.
"You can call me Shiro, what is your name ?"
Rytha was a bit surprised that he could see the voice he was now conversing with and answered.
" I am Rytha Shirohaga, Shiro why are you chained ?"
"Oh ? You want to know? "
Rytha nodded.
The voice chuckled.
"I will tell you once you get strong enough to destroy an entire legion of seraphim."
Rytha's eyes widened what are those?
Shiro stopped sharing his vision with Rytha.
"Child I burned through a lot of essence to share that vision so for now will just communicate with you only hearing me, and to answer your question seraphim are second tier corrupted terrors."
"What Shiro...."
Before Rytha could talk any further Shiro reprimanded him.
"Child try not to ask to many questions you will need to take shelter this realm is infested with many abominations some you would wish where only your nightmares."
Rytha continued.
"Shiro what is a second tier corrupted terror ?"
Shiro gasped.
"Child! What where your elders teaching you? What rank are you ?"
Rytha made a confused face.
"Rank ? Am a samurai in training....I was never really taught anything about my clan, magic, or about ranks because everyone thought I was a lost cause because of my damaged soul core."
Rytha stood up and looked at a tall Mountain in the east.
"What are you talking about child, your core can easily be fixed...how weak as the world become?"
Rytha stared at the mountain with a smile on his face and spoke.
"Shiro, I don't want to be weak."
"Good boy, but be warned the road ahead won't be easy I will only impart some very useful knowledge in you as for combat skills and physical skills you will have to find someone very special."
Shiro gave Rytha a vision of a person with snow white hair and purple eyes the face like that of a divine being the person was adoned in jade black amor, while purple essence flowed all over the person as if it was there aura.
Shiro cleared his throat to get Rytha's attention.
"Child, that is quiver he will be your teacher, he is at that mountain you keep staring at its almost as if you knew what was at that mountain."
Rytha shrugged.
" Wait that is a man !.....
