As the people around me start to increase, they yell at me, saying;“Why are you here?”“Have you come to curse us?”“You’re the one making the minuses stronger, aren’t you.”“Don’t you know how your existence has brought ruin to our businesses?”“Stop destroying our lives!”“Why did you have to be born into our village.”“Was it not enough destroying your parent’s lives.”“GET OUT!” Someone screams at me as they throw a stone my way. But as the stone comes towards me, Orb knocks it away as he and Cyrus arrive.“What are you people doing?”“Stay out of this foreigner.”“How can I stay out of this when my friend.”“Friend, do you even know what that child is?”“She must have tricked him.”“To think she has been trying to bewitch all the travellers all this time.”“Even after we put up with her existence in our village, she still pulls stunts like this. I have had enough of this, let us remove her.”Cyrus smashes his foot into the ground, which releases a mighty shockwave pushing people

I was brought to the Himeji castle when I arrived in the capital. I was always told as a child that it was a giant beautiful building where the shogun lived. It was a place I wanted to visit one day. To think I could come here, though my circumstances weren’t the ones I wanted to see it under.The first thing they did when I got there was isolate me from everyone. I was given a new change of clothes and was brought excellent food daily. However, I hated when they came to provide me with anything because whenever they approached, I could feel their hatred, fear and disgust at my presence. Every day I would feel more and more of their emotions until one day, I started to hear their thoughts.Full of animosity, they would discuss:“She is too dangerous to be kept alive.”“The fox rampage this time might destroy more than our country.”“It is our duty as humans to end this threat. We should execute her immediately.”“Kids cannot be put to death for any reason.”“Will you let such a foolis

-Break-Every day since Suzuka told us her name, we have come to visit her. The twinstars have tightened their defences around the area of her house, but as long as we sneak past them, it is no issue.Whenever we arrive, Suzuka is filled with joy to be with us, so much so that I felt that she was overbearing but still, that smile is too genuine for me to complain, so I bear with it.We spend all our time from morning till night playing. We draw, we build snow sculptures, we even fight though Suzuka tends to beat our asses at all of these things, which has stroked my competitive spirit quite a bit. So instead of making sure she has been having a fun time, I have been trying to crush her with all my heart though it turns out life isn’t going my way.One day I lost so completely at everything I fell to the ground on my hands and knees in defeat with tears falling down my eyes. Seeing this, Suzuka said to me.“Sorry about this Orb I’ll let you win the next one.”“That won’t make me happy,

-Break-Φ The dark cloud in the sky me and Cyrus see suddenly collapses in on itself and disappears. Following this, screams are heard, and debris flies everywhere even in our direction.As it comes at Cyrus and me, I freeze it, but looking around me, not everyone is so lucky. Debris blasted off some of their body parts, crushed some of their bodies, and landed on lots of the buildings. Seeing this, the feeling to vomit almost overtakes me, but I hold it back.Then I say to Cyrus, “I need you to go back to the inn to drop the medicine there. When you get back, make sure Sparrow is ready. If this is what I think it is, we might need to proceed with our plan tonight instead of tomorrow.”“R-R-R-Right,” Cyrus says as he leaves, I go around and start helping the people who were crushed by the debris around me. The spirits in the area and the buildings, also come out to help.“Do you have any idea what is doing this?” I ask one of the spirits.“It’s a minus. I can feel it, all of the spiri

After Cyrus says this, the minus with its flaming katana swings directly at him.“DODGE!” I scream.But Cyrus blocks the blow, from the katana taking the full shockwave of the impact, and absorbing the flames.“You’re interesting. To think a human is this strong” the minus says as Cyrus knocks it back.I move up to Cyrus and ask, “How did you do that.”Sporadically he says, “I j-j-just got my s-s-sword then I thought I couldn’t let you d-d-die, then black mist appeared. L-L-Legacy active sword changed darkness came out minus defeated.” When he finishes saying all this, I feel like steam is coming out of his head.“It’s okay slow down. We will figure this out later, but we need to get past that monster because behind it is Suzuka.”He starts panicking and says, “Is she ok? What is going on? Did t-t-t-that monster hurt her?” while getting close.“Cyrus, you’re ruining the cool Aura you had. Clam down,” I say, pushing his face away.“S-S-Sorry”“I need someone to distract him as I get cl

-Break-19 years earlierΦ “Inari-sensei, there is a monster outside!”“I don’t remember training any of you guys to lose to a minus, now do I.”“It isn’t a minus, it’s a human.”After my student finished saying this, I suddenly see more of my students fly through the dojo door. “What the hell is going on”, I say, dumbfounded by this situation.Then walking on top of the defeated bodies of my students, I see a young boy come in, and he says, “Your Inari Gozen the one in charge here aren’t you?”“Yes, I am now, would you please stop walking over my students.”“Who cares about that; soon I will be walking all over you”, the young boy says as he jumps to attack me. Dodging his blows, I see how incredibly sharp his spirit energy control is, not only that his footwork is great and he is aiming for all my weak spots; I see how he was able to so easily overpower my students, but I won’t go down so easily.So, after giving the brat a fake opening to strike, I catch him and restrain him.

-Break-Φ After accepting Inari's offer, I went to live with him and Kuzanoha. During the time I stayed with them, Kuzanoha thought me lots of stuff like how to cook if I am in an emergency situation, and how to upkeep all my equipment.Though one thing I didn’t like learning was manners, apparently I had a foul mouth, and had to learn how to behave like a proper human being. The part that made it worst was that Inari's mother Osaki was the one teaching me, and she wasn’t gentle.“I don’t want to do this anymore you ape,” I said right at Osaki's face.Osaki picks me up and hits me repeatedly on the ass. This lady is an ape in disguise she shouldn’t be this strong. After she lets me down she says. “Watch your tongue you ignorant child, or there will be more where that came from.”“Keep talking, you old bitch.”“Youth today, your morals are degrading at a ridiculous rate, but don’t worry, I won’t let you be one of them.

I spent the rest of the day with them getting to know my little sister Suzuka, but when everyone went to sleep, I snuck out to go find someone. Walking into her inn, the first person I see is granny Osaki, and when I see her I run up furiously and say, “Why aren’t you helping your family at all.”“Watch your tone boy, I tried to help those two repeatedly, but they have rejected it.”“They told me you asked them to give up Suzuka; we know they could never do that.”“Are you just as stupid as the rest of them, that girl has no future in this country, can you not see that.”“We could try and look for other options instead of just giving up on her.”“I thought you would have grown in these last two years, but it seems I was mistaken. This conversation is a waste of time I am done here,” she says walking away.“Granny Osaki, I always thought you were kind of mean but you did it out of love. I never knew you were such a coward, as to abandon your family out of fear of the people around you.

High king Conchobar Ó Danu."Soon after this is said together with a group of armed Fanalis, a man with an average build walks through the most extravagant door in the room, and descends onto us all.He is covered from head to toe, in fine cloth and jewellery. This all gives him a great presence of authority and power, but even with all of this plus his guards, he doesn't grab my attention as much as Scáthach and Lugh did.He might be the high king but I feel like his existence doesn't command the authority of such a title.However, one thing that does is how quickly both Lugh and Scáthach's knees dropped when they saw him. This quickly made everyone else in the room including me follow suit, even Setanta did so without making a single scene.Moving over to Lugh and Scáthach, he reaches out his arm and says, "Now everyone rise."He lifts both Lugh and Scáthach up and eve
