《12 Hand Asura》The Killer Side
Advertisement
Zio drags Gina through the forest and finally reach the bottom of Mount Asura, on the way Gina kept asking Zio where he is taking her but he won't answer, he would just say "You will know when you get there"
Both Zio and Gina take a deep breath while rubbing their palms to warm themselves up, this part of the mountain is very cold and Zio didn't expect this at all because his village was experiencing a normal climate, he didn't understand why it was so cold here.
"Zio why did you bring me here?"
Gina asked while looking around.
"We are going to climb Mount Asura"
He said and looked up and so did Gina, as their heads slowly rose up trying to see the peak of the mountain, they lost their balance and fell on their back as they looked at the sky.
They could still not look at the peak of Mount Asura because the mountain was so tall that it went through the clouds, the clouds blocked the vision of the peak, and even if the clouds were not present they didn't know if they could see the peak because the mountain was just too tall.
Not even has been able to come back after reaching the top of the mountain but Zio didn't understand that.
He didn't understand how dangerous it is for someone to climb the mountain, he didn't understand that he cannot breathe normally after reaching a certain height, they would struggle to hold on to their breath.
"Are you an idiot, no we are not climbing the mountain, let's go back or I will tell aunty"
Gina shouted at Zio angrily, she couldn't believe that this brat dragged her here so that he could climb Mount Asura.
If anyone heard that they would think Zio is retarded but to Zio, it is something totally different.
After reading through the book he became intrigued about the God Religan that is on top of Mount Asura, he is not an adult, he is just a kid who is excited by the story he read.
If his grandpa knew that this would happen he would have never given the book to Zio.
Zio is a very bright child, while others took months to learn how to read and write Zio only took a few days to learn the basics, and then he started to combine words and read. His Grandpa believed that Zio will treat this book like a storybook since he is such a bright child but the book made a massive impression on Zio.

His Ancestor, Valt Asura the person who was known as the strongest being in the world, how he ended the war single-handed just by himself with the God Religan he carried with him.
Zio wanted it, he wanted the wield the God Religan, ever since he was three years old he was interested in the unique weapon that his parents and his grandpa carried with them.
He heard about how powerful these weapons can get if they grow alongside its wielder, he wanted a very strong Religan, and knowing that there is a Religan that is so strong that he could become the strongest, he wanted it.
Even if it's just a myth, he wanted to see with his own eyes, he doesn't know what it is but something inside him wanted to wield the Religan and rule over all living begins.
He looked at Gina and back at the invisible peak of the mountain, then he remembered the face his mother makes when she gets angry and suddenly a chill ran through his body which killed the feeling to hold the God Religan.
He grumbled in annoyance and looked at Gina, he is annoyed but he knows that Gina will tell his mom if he even tried to take one step to climb the mountain.
"Ok let's go"
He sighed and grabbed Gina's hand and ran back towards their village, as they moved further from the mountain the temperature rose and they felt normal again.
"I swear, if you had even taken one step I would have told aunty"
She said and giggled.
"I know, you are a snitch, you were born a snitch"
Zio said and grumbled.
"What did you say?"
She shouted and got angry.
"Nothing"
She said and ran away.
"I will tell aunty"
Gina shouted and ran behind Zio as well, both of them soon arrived back at the village and everything seemed normal, Gina went back to her house and Zio made his way towards him, as he got near he saw his father talking with someone he had never seen before.
This person was sitting on top of a black horse and he had a Religan hanging around his waist, from the looks of it, his father seemed angry while the person on the horse had a smug look on his face.
Zio looked at this person carefully, this person was wearing clothes he has never seen before, it was blue in color and looked very beautiful and fancy in his eyes, he has never seen a dress so unique and beautiful in his life.

Zio also saw his mother behind his father, she also had a frown on her face, Zio approached them when he heard his father talk.
"Get out of my village, we have never interfered with the city before and never will in the future as well, why should we leave our land just because your old master wants to use our land, get the fuck out of here now"
Zaden said with an angry voice.
When this person heard this the smug look on his face disappeared and he became angry.
"You mere wildlings, do you even know who you are talking to, you should be grateful that you are even allowed to speak to me right now, kneel and ask for mercy or I will kill you all"
He roared.
As soon as he said this he suddenly fell on the ground with a thud as blood splattered all over his face, he looked horrified as he saw his horse's head has been chopped off and he couldn't even react, he realized that he could have been the one who could have suffered this fate.
"Yo..Yo...You.... do you even know what you are doing, If something happens to me, your whole clan will be dead, it will be completely wiped out from existence"
This man started to shout but he was shaking in fear, he then got to his feet and pulled out his Religan, it is a red color sword.
"How dare you humiliate me, I will kill you"
He said and then suddenly charged at Zaden but before he could even strike the hand in which he was holding his Religan disappeared, the man then saw his arm fall on the ground with his Religan, blood suddenly gushed out from the missing part of the arm as the man screamed in agony.
His face became ashen white as he looked at Zaden, he saw Zaden holding a green long sword which is currently covered in thick dark blood.
The man then looked at his wound and noticed that his body has started to go purple, he quickly pulled out medicine from his pouch and popped it inside his mouth and the spreading of the poison, he is still not safe, if he doesn't see a doctor he will die.
The venom of the Emerald Python is very potent, this venom clots the blood and stops the flow of blood to the heart and brain, first the person will have a stroke and become paralyzed as all their neurons start to die which is fatal but the Venom doesn't stop there, then the paralyzed person will suffer a deadly heart attack which will kill them for good.
Zaden's weapon has the same ability, it can inject Venom into the person's body if Zaden wants to.
The man started to breathe heavily, even though the clotting of blood has stopped for now but he will soon start to suffer from fever which will soon reduce the man's body's defense and the medicine he took will start to lose its effect.
"Go back to your old master and tell him, if he dares to even step one foot of his inside our clan, I will cut his head off and hang it outside our clan for the rest of the city to know about it, you have one hour, GO"
Zaden shouts and the man gets scared shitlessly and runs off as he tumbles down twice and fell before disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Dad, is everything Ok?"
Zio asked. He has no idea what is going on but he could tell that this is not right, this is the first time Zio has seen this side of his dad, those cold eyes that won't even flicker when killing someone, Zio has no idea that his dad had a side like this.
"Zio...Lisa take Zio inside and put him to sleep, I will clean this mess up"
Zaden looked at his son apologetically and sighed, he didn't want to show Zio this side of him, the one who is a killer but he didn't expect Zio would come from nowhere and see everything.

However, the trials are deadly, and there are always some that go in, but never come out. Regardless of the danger, Novice Trials are required for entry into any of the four grand academies. Those that survive the trials are able to gain experience and level-up as they ascend the different floors of the Towers." The Tower Trials is my first attempt at writing.
