Chapter 15 - "An unexpected guest"
I guess I can slow down a little now? For how many hours did I run? That 'thing' was really creepy... I seriously hope our path would never cross again... But I have this feeling we see each other more sooner than I think... And she seem quite decided to run after me to the opposite side of the earth... The simple thought that she is still after me send a shiver up my spine. It seem I have from now on my one stalker...
[That woman was really crazy...] (Mysty)
[I agree... Myself really hope we never see her face again...] (Setsuna)
You two can't really talk... And Setsuna must have been quite shocked by her as she didn't gave her habitual 'let's just kill them'...
[If we encounter her again myself is afraid that my lord will punish her again, making myself burn with jealousy...] (Setsuna)
I was wrong... She just want to have the punishment for herself...
"But still I wonder if we are still far from the city owned by uncle Arllan..." (Shun)
[I wanted to ask from some time ago, but who is uncle Arllan? I don't remember you having a uncle?] (Mysty)
[Myself was also quite curious about that.] (Setsuna)
"Setsuna you wouldn't know, as I still didn't mentioned to you why we were going south, and for Mysty I mentioned him as my father best friend." (Shun)
[Did you? I don't remember...] (Mysty)
... So she don't even remember why we are going south, that dumb sword!
"*Sigh* Since Mysty doesn't even remember and Setsuna still didn't heard about it let me recap..." (Shun)
[Mmumumumu it's not my fault! It's always too complicated to remember...] (Mysty)
[My thanks my lord. Myself never questioned you, as myself didn't seem to be intrusive...] (Setsuna)
"Something like around a month ago. My family were attacked by knights of this kingdom under the order of the new king, he attacked us under the false charge that my father was involved and even was the master mind behind the late king death... But the truth is that my father was in the second prince faction for the throne and as a hero of war he had quite the political power, and most of all my family birthed two champion. The greedy first prince and new king, wanting to weaken his rival faction as to prevent a rebellion, killed my father by executing him as a traitor and attacked his family as to enslave the two champions kids of the family, killing two birds with a stone..."
[What a heathen!] (Setsuna)
[What a bastard, that king!] (Mysty)
... Mysty you already heard that story... Well no matter, let's continue...
"And so he did kill everyone in my family, everyone but my mother and sister who was kidnapped. As the bastard seem to have quite the strong champions under him I wanted to go south for two reason. Becoming stronger by obtaining you, and going even further south to the territory of my father sworn brother, duke Arllan Galvira, who is also the leader of the second prince faction, as to obtain his help to save my kidnapped family and kill the bastard king. That's pretty much it." (Shun)
[Umu... Myself now understand, the reason thou didn't want to kill unnecessarily was as to obtain support from this man more easily...] (Setsuna)
[Eh? Is it?] (Mysty)
Thank god no every cursed blades are as dumb as Mysty! But Mysty dumbness just make me want to hug her even more, like it's part of her loveliness... *Sigh* Who knew I see the day I could even think thing like that without getting embarrassed...

"That's right... I'm, myself, know uncle Arllan quite well since I saw him a lot in the past when he came to see my father, I wouldn't call him like that otherwise, there was even talk about making me marry his daughter, well not that I wanted to or want to even now..." (Shun)
[I quite hope so! I can tolerate the other cursed blades but a human is unacceptable! Well maybe your sister at most but no one else!] (Mysty)
"*Cough**cough* What the hell?! What my sister have to do with that talk?!" (Shun)
[Oh... So my lord didn't have a oedipus one but a sister complex...] (Setsuna)
"Like hell I do! Well I do think she's quite cute and adorable, and when I think that she gonna marry some dumbass one day it kinda pain my heart and..." (Shun)
[...] [...] (Mysty & Setsuna)
"... OH MY GOD! I'm a siscon?! Nonono I won't accept that! I just hold my sister really dear, that all... yup that's all... THAT'S ALL!" (Shun)
... Now that I look back on it, I always took really good care of my sister and was really close to her... But that only a older brother love for his lovely little sister... Right?
[Myself see how it is my lord... Do you want myself to call you dear brother from now on?] (Setsuna)
[Oh! I never think of that! Big brother!] (Mysty)
"Stop that immediately or you can say good bye to you promised rewards..."
[Hey! That's unfair! You already promised us and we still did nothing!] (Mysty)
[That right my lord! Myself won't accept something this unfair, it would be quite cruel of thou to not hold the promise thou are already quite late to reward...] (Setsuna)
"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry! A lot of thing happened and I still didn't give you any reward, but let stop talking about that okay? In exchange tell me what you want?" (Shun)
[A wedding ceremony!] (Mysty)
[The same punishment that elf fool received!] (Setsuna)
"Mysty you at least need 2000 rewards for that... Setsuna can't you wait for a more appropriate place for that...?" (Shun)
The two of them wanted things I quite expected... But seriously does Mysty think it's that simple to hold a wedding ceremony?! As for Setsuna I'm not really sure, actually when I punished Elivera I discovered I was quite the sadist myself... But fun need to be at the right time at the right place.
[Eeeeeh?! There was a system like that?! How many rewards do I have?!] (Mysty)
[Myself shall wait eagerly my lord!] (Setsuna)
"You have two... And yes Setsuna please wait patiently..." (Shun)
[Noooo way!!! Than mean I must do at least... Uh... A lot of things that need reward!] (Mysty)
You seriously can't do that much addition?! When you are over 3000 fucking years old?!
"*Sigh* You need 1998 more rewards for that." (Shun) (that's quite the lucky number for a french!)
[What?! That a lot! It is a lot right?] (Mysty)
Wait, what?! You can't even count?!
[My lord, myself is quite ashamed of my sister level of intelligence...] (Setsuna)
"Don't worry about it... I'm starting to get quite accustomed to Mysty dumbness... But... Oh?" (Shun)
As I was talking with the girls while running, a giant city wall entered my sight.
"It seem we are already at destination?! How many days did I run without knowing it?!" (Shun)
[My lord thou seem quite the air head yourself... Myself also found it strange you didn't stop running even for eating or sleeping... Thou ran for five whole day my lord...] (Setsuna)

"What?!" (Shun)
[It's true.] (Mysty)
Are you kidding me?! How deformed is my sense of time lately?! Well I have a guess as to why, but I don't want to think about it... And most of all I need water and food!
"Let's camp outside tonight, they won't open the gates this late and I really need to rest before passing out... You can also turn back into human form for now, it be more simpler to enter the city this way." (Shun)
As I said that the two swords turned back into their humans form looking happy. Shit, now that I stopped running the exhaustion is coming to me, how much stamina have I seriously to run for five days straight?
"Sorry to ask you that girls, but can you help me eat and drink I can't even sit..." (Shun)
That was embarrassing but I didn't have any choice, quite happy that I ask something of them, Setsuna got behind my back and put my head on her knee while Mysty was giving me water and dried meat... I looked like some harem king... Wait I am one aren't I?! Don't think about it Shun, if you think to much you lose... Well being spoiled like that was quite enjoyable actually, guess I can give them another reward for that uh? Seriously how pretentious can I be to think like that?! Oh well not that I care...
"Say aahhhh dear." (Mysty)
"Aaahhh *chomp* *crunch* *gulp*." (Shun)
"Are thou comfortable my lord?" (Setsuna)
"Yeah, thanks..." (Shun)
I'm starting to not even mind my embarrassment... I start to understand why Eva love to be spoiled this much, but since I really don't want to become a spoiled little lord let's make today an exception...
And so after eating and drinking our fills, we started to sleep the three of us together using the packs as a pillow, not even taking out the tent, enjoying the starry night sky...
...
Morning came and I awoke, but not only was I feeling pain because my two arms were numbs of being used as a pillow by Mysty and Setsuna, but I was also feeling quite embarrassed as we slept just beside the road and now the merchants and travelers who were passing by this road looked at us while grinning and saying thing like... 'My boy you are one hell of a lucky guy!'... I already know that...
"Mysty... Setsuna, wake up." (Shun)
"Mmm?" (Mysty)
"Good morning my lord." (Setsuna)
Mysty were clearly still half asleep but Setsuna looked fully awake as soon as she wake up.
"Let's go, we have a big day ahead of us..." (Shun)
"Yes dear!""Yes my lord!" (Mysty & Setsuna)
And so we started to walk in the direction of the city gate, a long line was already formed of merchants and travelers who waited for their turns. Shit we waked up to late... If we did sooner, we wouldn't have to wait this much... Oh well I guess that my distorted sense of time would be useful here... And it did, I just simply start to think of stupid things while walking unconsciously when the line advanced, and before I knew it I was before a guard...
"Identify yourself and tell us why you want to enter the city. Also show us your birthcard as to confirm your identity." (Guard)
"My name is Shun Fenrik, I am a acquaintance of lord Galvira and came here to visit him. And here my birtcard." (Shun)
Shun Fenrik13 Years OldHidden S[tr][td3]Blessing & Prophecy [/td4]tr]
[tr]Hidden[tr]
[tr]Hidden[tr]
Oh? It seem I turned 13 years old without knowing it, also since you are most likely wondering about the 'Hidden' thing, it's simply the hide function of the birthcard that let you show only the minimal information.
"Wha... Are you really the one?! The blood seeker?!" (Guard)
What the hell?! What with this ridiculous nickname...
"Blood seeker is it? I'm sorry I must say I never heard that nickname but I do am Shun Fenrik." (Shun)
"I see. Please wait to the side sir, we going to send someone to the lord, we won't be able to let you pass before we have his permission." (Guard)
The guard was clearly looking at me in fear and awe, I guess wilds rumors about me started to come even here... But how? I didn't leave any knight alive... One must have hidden, damn... And it can't be about the labyrinth city as I ran almost straight from there at a greater speed than even a horse.
"I understand I will wait." (Shun)
"Also sir can I ask you if the two behind you are..." (Guard)
They know even that... Well no point hiding it.
"They surely what you think they are." (Shun)
"I'm dear wife!" (Mysty)
"Hmpf! Foolishness! 'We' are my lord 'wife'!" (Setsuna)
Not again...
"I... I see..." (Guard)
Or so the guard said while not really knowing what he should say, but the fear in is eyes while looking at the girls clearly said he knew what they were.
After waiting for almost half a hour while Mysty and Setsuna was trying to flirt with me and making the guards seeing that quite uncomfortable. Arllan Galvira showed up himself, surrounded by guards protecting him. Is he that nervous from meeting me?
"Shun, my boy, I'm quite happy you were able to escape from this mess alive!" (Arllan)
"Yes... Thank you uncle Arllan, since it came to such a situation I thought I should come to you." (Shun)
"Ah... Well, follow me for now, and also you must present to me the two lovely lady that are with you! Who are they?" (Arllan)
Mmm? That weird even the soldier knew about it, yet, it don't look like he's joking, the guard who questioned me before, ran to him and started to whisper to his ear.
"Sir!...*Whisper*" (Guard)
"WHAT?! That wasn't a joke or the hallucination of a madman?!" (Arllan)
Ah... So that what it was when he heard it he couldn't believe it.
"I see... Then everyone, follow me to my mansion..." (Arllan)
And so we departed for the lord mansion that was at the center of this city. But strangely, as we walked, uncle Arllan and the guards were looking around us as if waiting for something. Don't tell me this is a trap and Galvira sell me out to the king?! As I was thinking that.
"My lord! Someone intend of attacking us!" (Setsuna)
"What?!"x6 (Five guards and Arllan)
As she said that I gave her my hands and she changed form.
"What the?!" (Arllan)
"Ah! No fair it's always Setsuna!" (Mysty)
Not caring for Arllan surprise or Mysty angry fit, I cut my palm to sense the enemy. As I did I could sense seven men who were on the roof who had a aura with a mix of hostility and panic most likely wondering how we seen them coming. I rushed to a dark alley to the side and jumped from wall to wall as to climb on the roof, as they seen me now on the same roof as them, they charged at me armed with knifes who were most likely poisoned, since they were coming at me I simply waited in a Iai stance, as they leaped to stab or cut me, I, in simple stroke cut all their neck but one. So weak... They didn't even see my blade and died before they knew what happened to them... So boring...
The last assassins was now completely panicked and feeling fear, but he put something in his mouth showing now determination.
Oh no you don't! Without a warning I jumped at him and inserted my hand in his mouth breaking all his teeth at the same time and took out of his mouth a small capsule who was most likely poison.
Well now, that's a job well done, let's take the survivor as a gift for uncle, I have I'm explain why he used me to draw assassin out...
Jumping directly from the roof, all the guards were in a stance, protecting their lord. Not minding them I simply dropped the assassin that was on my shoulder and asked Mysty to turn back into her sword form and Setsuna to turn back into human form. When they seen Mysty change form they wondered what I intended to do since every assassins were taken out, and were now fearing they were next.
What a laugh.
I took the hand of the now unconscious man and bite one of his finger before crunching on it and swallowing it. Quite tasty... I knew in my head that it's totally sick, yet I didn't even felt dejected to eat human flesh anymore.
*Crunch* *Crunch* *Crunch* *Gulp*
why did I do that? As long as the cut in my palm is not healed the curse won't clear and my view won't come back, and since when I am cursed and not holding Setsuna I only have the curse but not the second effect I was totally blind, but since I was trained in her dungeon it wasn't really annoying, but when talking to someone it's important to see his face.
My wound healed with the help of Mysty curse, my view came back and I was now able to see the guards who were whether, throwing up, looking at me with a pale face will shaking, or like Arllan they were holding their open mouth in shock.
"Mmm? What wrong?" (Shun)
"What wrong?! You just ate a man finger without a care!" (Arllan)
"Uh? So?" (Shun)
"Wha... So? You just ate human flesh and you think nothing of it?" (Arllan)
The guards were clearly getting even more scarred by the second, what a band of wimps.
"It's not important! Uncle Arllan, I don't really like the fact you just used me to draw out the one after you..." (Shun)
"It's not important?... Uh... Ah yeah, I'm really sorry for that but we are also cornered here you know..." (Arllan)
"Cornered? Oh! I see so that how it is. Let's just continue to walk already, oh and you, take care of him I made it so he can't bite his tongue, but do something to stop the bleeding or he's going to die."
I gave the unconscious man to the guard who seemed the least affected by all that and followed once again Arllan to his mansion... After walking in silence and a heavy mood in the air for a while, we finally arrived at the mansion and as we entered someone came to us.
"Arllan! So did they show up?!" (???)
It was a girlish boy with blond hair and blue eyes who was wearing luxury cloth.
So it was really like that...
"Uh... That is... Yes they showed up and we even captured one alive but.." (Arllan)
"Mmm? Did something go wrong? You don't look happy about our success." (Pretty boy?)
"No every thing went even better that we hopped, but that is to say..." (Arllan)
"Uncle your annoying if you have something to say just say it." (Shun)
Arllan attitude was seriously starting to annoy me.
"What?! Who is this rude fellow Arllan?!" (Pretty boy)
"The one who going to beat the hell of you if you don't change your tone." (Shun)
"Shun my boy! Do you even know who your talking to?!" (Arllan)
"I know full well who he is and that precisely the reason why I'm talking like that." (Shun)
"Wha...? What did I ever do to you?!" (Pretty boy)
"Oh nothing! You just killed more than half my family and made my mother and sister getting kidnapped by your retard of a brother because not only you involved us in your mess but also because you didn't have the ball to kill him before it came to this. So now I ask you again... Do you deserve my respect? Second Prince Sarius Asfellana." (Shun)
Hearing my words, and now understanding who I was, the Prince slowly started to look down ashamed, but what was more worrisome was the face Arllan did when I mentioned my kidnapped sister and mother...
"That... Could you be the son of the Fenrik family?" (Sarius)
"That I am." (Shun)
"I see..." (Sarius)
"Dear?" (Mysty)
Mysty still unable to read the mood suddenly talked to me.
"What honey...?" (Shun)
"Why did you call I'm Prince when she's a girl?" (Mysty)
"*Sigh*" (Setsuna)
Dropping bombshell in 1...2...TOO FUCKING LATE TO COUNT!
"Honey..." (Shun)
"Yes?" (Mysty)
"LEARN HOW TO READ THE GODDAMN MOOD!" (Shun)
"Sorry!!!" (Mysty)
When they heard that bombshell Arllan and Sarius looked quite shocked and Sarius even started to blush.
"How... How did you knew?!" (Arllan)
"Wait are you telling me you were trying to hide it? Even a dead man can see he's a she..." (Shun)
"Are you joking?! It's a national secret nobody but my parents and the one close to me know that! Not even my brother know about it!" (Sarius)
"*Sigh* Are you kidding me... With people that dense, this country is seriously doomed... But your gender don't matter, since your already guess why I came here let's talk about the real mater! Is what I like to say but it's gonna have to wait, Arllan why did you made a face like that when I mentioned my kidnapped family?" (Shun)
"That is... It's because I didn't expect you to not have heard about it..." (Arllan)
"About what?! And just to tell you I'm in no mood to guess!" (Shun)
"I'm sorry... Your mother the day she was lead to the king, took her life to protect you and your sister from using her as an hostage..." (Arllan)
"Wha..." (Shun)
This is a joke right? Mother wouldn't have the guts to do something like that, right? No, it's precisely because it was mother Felicia that she was able to do that without any hesitating.
*Krrrr* *Crrreeakkkk*
So I failed? I should have ran directly after them?
*KKKrrrRrrrr* *CCRREEAAAKKK*
She died because I was weak? Because I wanted to get Setsuna?
*KKKRRRRRR* *CCCRRREEEAAAAKKKK* *RRRUMMMBBLLEEE*
As I was grinding my teeth my right heel was nervously hitting the floor making the floor around me, creaking under the pressure, and little by little even the wall started to shake because of the vibration. My blood lust seemed to leak a lot too as Arllan and Sarius had now a hard time breathing.
"It's okay dear..." (Mysty)
"Thou have us my lord..." (Setsuna)
Setsuna and Mysty gently hugged me while trying to comfort me, I was still mad at me but I didn't have the time to weep for now, my heel and my blood lust calmed down slowly.
"What about my sister?" (Shun)
"Uh...?" (Arllan)
"What... About... My, Sister?" (Shun)
I tried my best to keep my anger and blood lust in check but I had a hard time to.
"I'm sorry all we know is that she is alive and accepted to work for the king, after that we lost trace of her. But we are sure she is alive..." (Arllan)
"I see...*Phew* She is a smart girl..." (Shun)
As I calmed down the state the hallway we were currently standing in was now in quite a bad shape, the beautiful tiles on the floor broke and the walls were showing sign of damages. I sure got strong uh? But even that was not enough to save my mother...
"I think it's better if we continue to talk elsewhere... Also sorry for making such a mess in your house Arllan, let's say we are even for using me as a bait." (Shun)
"Yes, don't worry about it... Let's move to the conference room." (Arllan)
All five of us then moved to the said room while the 'Prince' was looking at us curiously surely wondering who was the girls with me or if they really were cursed blades...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mmm... I feel my story is getting boring and that seriously pain me :s. Well I continue to write it for now anyway.
