《Re:sword》chap 4. The owner

author notes: Now i don't want you complaining about the sudden change in personality. There is a reason for it infact 2. But i'm not going to tell you in the story. I was always a fan of the people figuring out the small plots of the story and i plan to have that in my story the longer the story goes on the more in depth and complex these lore facts will get. They will only have minor influences on the story so if you dont like reading in between the lines then you won't be missing much.Also im going to do a .5 sorta chapter deal and it will be the story from another perspective so the side characters can get a more indepth personality. Most of the time you will get 2 releases in short succession.

When i woke up i was in a new landscape that wasn’t all white, Which shocked me.Then i remembered that i finished the gift for The Goddess of Fate and i made 1 critical error...I FORGOT TO CHECK THE STATS!!!!!
I started worry maybe it was good enough i mean the idea to make the dress just sorta came to me out of no where i even knew how to craft it as if i was a master tailor so it couldnt be horrible.
Well no sense crying over spilled milk i guess it would be best for me to start observing the area.
What i first noticed was alot of green, I was in a forest about 10 feet of clear plans surround me. It looks like im on a slit hill surrounded by a semi-circle of standing stones with me in the midde(think half of stonehenge). below me is what looks like the sword i craft in the sheath stuck into a stone altar. Sorta like how the sword i saw in the dungeon. But this is out in the open i guess i cant really see about me seeing as how the trees foliage is covering me only allowing a few beams of light to get through the thick tree leaves.
Then it hit me…...Im the sword in the stone and my spirit is directly above it it feels like im chained to the sword only allowing me to float 5 feet away from it.
(think like the sword from sword shaman anime but the wielder doesnt know its there [yet ;)])
Im a dog on a chain...Well I the only thing i could do now it wait for my new hopefully female owner to arrive While i'm waiting i can give a quick look around i activated my mana perception skill which i crafted into the sword to expand my field of view.
There are a few small animals around. I see what appears to be like a rabbit with a horn about 30 feet away from me, If i remember correctly that creature is called a horned rabbit. When i was in the “white world” i went through about 3 different encyclopedias of monsters that are on this planet and i do not seem to have forgotten any of them if fact i sorta feel like i am the encyclopedia. If i don't know something it just pops up in my head like i searched for it. strange.
I tried to open up that status window from before but it didn't work. Maybe because im not technique alive anymore or its due to that fact that i could only do it in the “white world”.

after about a hour of manual looking around and using mana perception i conclude that im in the middle of no where in a massive forest. The only life i detect are monsters and small animals. No sign of any human’s anywhere, If i were to guess im the reward at the end of a forest dungeon. Seeing as how im directly in the middle of this forest. I mean directly it took me awhile but i did the math and this forest appears to be a perfect circle and im dead smack in the middle.
So with nothing left to do i decide the only thing i can do is wait luckily i've learned a way to pass the time and that is advanced mana absorption, Let me explain. In this world Mana is in everything and around everything. Im going to take the mana from the air and absorb it into my sword since i have no passive way to collect mana i have to do it manually until i get a owner. Since my new body can hold what i can only imagine a ton of mana inside it i have plenty of storage room.But the best part is this takes a lot of time to do But for the person meditating it feels like only a few hours have passed. I even have a back up plan which is have mana perception active always so i can get a alarm if someone enters into my little clearing. And since mana perception takes mana to uses i'm filling and draining my mana at the same rate. I know a brilliant plan if I do say so myself. So im going to fill up my tank first then activate mana perception.
(author note: 1 hour in advanced meditation= roughly 1 month for readers benefit.)
Well it felt like its been about 1 month(60 years) since i started using advanced mana absorption. Im starting to get bored of this slightly but ill keep it up. That was when i got the alarm. Someones here magnificent. Let see if they can be my new owner. As i Stop Advanced mana absorption and started to look around,But i saw no one. I am rather confused i only set it to detect sentient life directly around the clearing so i should be able to visually see them but they're not there. I activated mana perception again and i was shocked the setting i have it for to detect sentient life extends through the whole forest i mean the whole thing. What appears to have entered was 11 lets call them humans for now since i can't tell there race with mana perception. The first human is a bit in and is a bit farther ahead it looks like there running. The other ten are following it close the first humans heel. If i can't tell it looks like they have their weapons drawn and are chasing the first human. I start to focus in on the first human base on the shape of their mana it looks like there a girl about the age of 16 and has a very frightened aura i could be wrong though. And the men chasing her seem to be in there 20-40 all have very sinister auras.
I thought this is my chance that could be my new owner i need to lead them here. I start activating my intimidating aura to scare away all the creators in their path. It seems the girl has a detect presence skill and is avoiding the monsters so if i scare the big creators i should lead her directly to me.

This took awhile but shes right outside my clearing i could tell she's mentally and physically exhausted, While the men are fine i saw them drinking something out of a bottle that most be the recovery pots i read about. At that moment the girl busted through the clearing and i got my first good look at my soon to be new owner. She was a beast-man or the more commonly referred as demi-humans here. She is around 5.8ft tall (176cm for you non americans) has has silverish grey hair. Her breast size is normal not to large or small thats the same with her butt. She had pointed ears and a tail that were the same color as her hair. I am unable to tell if she is more closely related to a fox or to a wolf. But she was beautiful none the less. Even with damaged and torn clothes that look like they were made for adventures. She had a cold beauty face that looks like its fallen on hard times. But right now she had a look of fear. When she broke through the tree line into the small clearing she had a panicked face and started desperately looking around and then started running towards my direction. I was estatic shes coming to grab me but when she reached my stand she stood next to me and faced the direction she came from.
If i wasnt mistaken she was probably going to make her last stand here in this clearing. She isnt even picking me up yet!? theres a brilliant sword right next to her and shes ignoring it. As That thought ran through my head the 10 men that have been following her also came out of the tree line grinning evil. These idiots they should have tried to approach from multiple angles not all at once from the front.
Getting a better look at them it confirmed my suspicions these guys are slaver’s probly trying to make this beauty next to me a slave. In the back one even held a iron color. But on closer inspection that color held a magic spell in it im not sure what though.
Anyways it doesnt matter THEY'RE NOT GETTING MY NEW OWNER!! as i shout in my head i start releasing the most killing intent i have ever tried.Of course none of it was directed to the girl. The men stopped in there tracks. Sweat poured down from there faces. Hell i even see one of them has wet his pants.
The girl look really confused and started looking around and then she finally notice me. She started intently at my body. I had to get her to grab the sword but how?! As i was thinking she grabbed my sheath and pulled me out of the stone. Chance!!. I sent the sword bind request and without a second thought she accepted it.HaHa this girl was meant for me. Since i let of the killing intent to focus on the binding spell one of the men rushed us with his sword held high.
When he began to swing down she drew the sword as in a attempted to block but activated my special magic wind slash. Cutting the sword in half and blowing the man back 5 feet with the wind magic.
This girls a naturally on her first draw she already used one of my special magics, Thats it this girl was meant for me.
She stared me with a look of confusion on her face. You can almost see the light bulb flick one when she made a guess how she did that. Air still flows around me she has 3 more slashes of “wind slash” left, Let see how well she does.
This whole time ive been laying killing intent on them so they don't approach us till shes ready. When she took a stance which i might had look horrid She is definitely not trained in using swords. I release the killing intent and 2 this time began to approach slowly they picked up there comrade and all three approached (the one that had his sword cut drew a knife didnt know how to really explain this in the story). As they approach she slashed at a 45 degree angle going from left to right releasing the skill “wind slash” downwards.
And this might be a good time to inform you that all the passive effects my sword gives have already taken effect.
boost in speed,strength,vitality,stamina by 40%increase in mana pool by 10%[tr]increase stealth by 10%[/td4]if bond all effects gain a additional 5%
Making the speed of the swing extremely hard to follow with the eye even if its a beginner using the blade. Since i didnt want this girls to feel regret for killing someone i put enough force to blow them back and knock them unconscious and no cutting power. Since we just met i don’t know how my new owner feels about killing.
After that she released to 45 degrees slashes in a quick instant forming a x aimed at the group of men. Needless to say they didnt have time to dodge and were thrown into the air and when hitting the ground they were knocked unconscious.
Once confirming they were all knocked out she tied them up with the rope they had and plopped down next to my pedestal. She sprawled out on the ground (大 like that) with me sheathed in her left hand breathing heavily. I has keeping all the beasts out with my intimidating aura when she rested dont want her getting eaten now do we.
When doing that her breathing slowed down and her eyes were shut...SHE FELL ASLEEP!!? Wow wasn't expecting that she must have been running for a long time might as well let her sleep. And if the goons over there wake up ill knock them back out with killing intent.

Love Crafted
To Enter Five Peaks Magical Academy you must have a familiar. Abigail hoped for a bird, maybe an owl like her best friend's, or a cuddly cat or loyal hound. She would have been happy with a particularly smart toad, even. Instead she got you. Cover art by: Zoufii
8 118The Red Lands
The Red Lands Starting alone from the bottom can be such a pain. A story of being transferred to a new world. If you are looking for a shocking OP character, this is not him. If you are looking for a young master with abundant wealth this is certainly not it. Maybe a poor slum child with a hidden past and bloodline. Poor yes, dirt poor. Full stop. Incredible knowledge. Aside from some skills in business, nothing. This is just a tale of an average individual trying to make the best of what he has. An average human salary-man was transmigrated into the body of a boy from the slums. What made it worse was that it was a completely different world. Armed with only basic knowledge from his past life and nearly nothing from his present, he strives to survive. Curiosity can become a deadly driving force for any human being. It all depends on who is wielding it. Author Blog Link The Red Lands
8 173P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT: Aeon Genesis
The first project focusing on four protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century Europe.This is the first P.A.R.A.D.O.X. PROJECT focusing on 3 (+1) protagonists within the same world set around fictional 14th-century-esque Europe. Each story has its own protagonists (Male or Female Lead), genres (mainly Western Fantasy), and can be read as a standalone. Status: OngoingUpdate(s) per week: 1Words per chapter: 3000 - 6000 *** ‘A human or not; a king or a servant; hope or despair; a hero or a villain.’ Depending on one's perspective and how each story portrays, one will view an individual or a group as evil or virtuous. Because of that, it depends on the reader and listener to believe which one is the truth. More people read and trust multiple (trusted?) sources that either complement or contradict one another. The contradiction becomes the source of debates between those who believe and those who don’t. From that difference in belief, two groups appear: The Majority and The Minority. The majority, having more people, suppress the minorities’ beliefs, claiming theirs, the majorities’, to be the truth. However, the majority are not only composed solely of those who share the same belief but also those who know the truth but afraid to admit it. They have to keep quiet and turn a blind eye for their safety. The majority had to submit to those with power and authority. With the majority under control, those with power and authority can create, manipulate, and/or fabricate truth and lies by force. The reason was for one’s or group’s personal benefits. In the end, there is no such thing as ‘absolute truth’; only sugar-coated lies created by the top. Don’t believe me? It is up to you to decide. Go and read it yourself.
