《Songs of Legacies: Cavaron [Complete Draft]》Chapter 0 - Prologue(?)
Advertisement
Walking down a dirt road is a man wearing blue armor and a red cape. He looked like a powerful person from his equipment.
His blue armor revealed craftsmanship that would give kings and emperors a run for their money, his red cape seems to be made from mystical cloth, and both give off a brilliant radiance upon closer inspection. On his waist are two short swords that don't appear to be worn out or is either well-maintained that make the man appear inexperienced at first glance.
Further along the road, the man was blocked by a group of armed men.
'Bandits?', the man mused to himself as he slowed to a stop.
"Drop yer stuff and git outta here, else we'll skin ya while ya breathe!!", the bandit in front bellowed to the man.
'Typical.', the man thought as he lifted his hands. When he did so, two long figures appeared in his hands and further materialized into two swords of equal length. In his right was a blade that radiated a crimson glow, and in his left was a blade that radiated an azure light. Both were leagues different from the swords on his waist.
" Wuh! Magic swords! Boys, we've got a Magic Knight! Kill'im and loot'im!", the bandit leader spoke.
'Not even deterred by this sight? Fine. I'll kill you all.', the man thought as he stabbed himself with the red sword.
"Da hell's with him!? Bah, makes our lives easier. Finish him off!"
After the man stabbed himself, his red sword let out a baleful aura as if it got stronger after wounding himself.
"I so very much hate coming across your kind for the past weeks." Finally, the man spoke as he let out bloodthirst. "Do me a favor and die."

Charging into the group of bandits as the man bled, one bandit fell after another. The sight before those who still stood was akin to watching a blade dancer, only this was a blade dance of death as the man beautifully swung his swords around decapitating all who drew near. Even the most skillful in fighting would stare with mouths agape at the scene before them.
The man's red sword appear to be glowing ever more brilliantly, and his blue sword shone as bright as its counterpart. With each kill, the red glow became stronger and his bleeding lessened, while the blue sword maintained its radiance. His armor, despite how bulky it looked followed the flow of his body as though he was wearing nothing at all. His cape, with its ever crimson radiance, fluttered mesmerizingly in the wind.
Out of the forty or so bandits that blocked him, 14 remained.
"By the gods, those swords... its a bloodsword and a mana sword..!", One of the living bandits screamed in fear as he fell back. The other bandits looked at the fallen bandit then at their leader then at one another. As if their souls were screaming at them, they ran away without warning leaving those left behind to the mercy of the man including their dear leader.
"Git back here ya fools!", the bandit leader yelled as he uselessly defends against the bladed onslaught.
After a few moments the man stopped and looked around himself. More than thirty bodies of dead bandits lay strewn around the immediate area. In front of him was the bandit leader who has now dropped to the ground begging for mercy.
"Hm... what should I do with you?" the man said as he approached the bandit.
The bandit leader, seeing his approach, couldn't help but shake in fear and hold his breath as he didn't want to further offend this man and get himself killed.

"I really hate dealing with people like you since you're all so damn stupid. Maybe I should kill you and do the world a favor."
"Hiiii!! P-please, s-spare me!" the bandit begged as his voice shrank and looked up to the man before him.
The man has already lifted his blood sword preparing to finish of the bandit, and the sword radiated even more in anticipation of more blood.
Just as he was about to swing down his sword, a magic circle appeared below him and a bright light flashed.
"! A summoning circle!? No! Not agai-!"
As the light faded, the man disappeared along with the magic circle, and the bandit was miraculously spared.
"Eh? W... what happened?", the bandit sat there dumbstruck at the disappearance of the man about to finish him off. "I... I live? I LIVE!!! YES!!! I'M ALIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!"
The bandit shouted with happiness for his fortune.
Moments later...
"Grrr...", a growl came from behind him.
"Huh?", looking back, he was met by a large wolf that rushed in to kill him. "NOOOO~"
And that was the last of the bandit as his head was bitten off.

At the moment, I'm typing all of these on my mobile until I get enough cash to buy a new PC.
