Seven Legendary Sword

Personality Changes

Torento came over with a face filled with murderous aura, the sword in his hand immediately charged towards Zerlan.

Things!!!

Cearuleus reacted quickly which startled Torento, he along with his sword snapped back.

“Tch… why can't you make our job easier? You just need to be quiet and let us take you!” Torento's eyes flashed an immense hatred.

Zerlan cast his eyes on the sword. “Right, I should have been more sure of what I did! This sword has saved me several times, it's clear that I'm the one who always troubles it!”

Torento was a little surprised by Zerlan who was in a position ready to attack, this was probably very bad for him to face its man.

Once again Torento approached Zerlan at high speed. “I will slash that neck, now stay there while I slash!”

“I can see it….”

Right in front of Zerlan's eyes the movement of Torento slowed down, he could predict where it would come.

Things!!!

Zerlan quickly slammed his sword, an energy pressure was created.

“Humph… you seem pretty good at using a sword too! But…."

Zerlan was surprised to see Torento who drew the sword then continued a piercing motion towards him, the movement had a speed of 0.05 seconds.

“Sah… what are you going to do now?” Torento's eyes continued to focus on Zerlan.

It was impossible for Zerlan to dodge, so he chose a different way. With his sword he slashed the speed of Torento's sword. Scratches were carved on his cheeks, slowly the blood was pouring out quite profusely.

"What! There's no way he'd be able to bend my attacks!”

Zerlan yanked Torrento's sword, it didn't stop there, he also moved forward to the man.

Crash!!!

Vertically Zerlan's attack injures Torento's body, blood spurting out.

"Argh..." Torento took a few steps back with his hands on his chest. “Bastard, how could he do this to me!”

Zerlan stood up straight, his eyes staring at Torento.

“Oi, why are you staring at me like that? Do you think I am not equal to you?”

As a result of the constant irritation, Torento stepped forward. The emotion on his face continued to show veins that curled like worms in clay.

Cearuleus emitted a glow, once a huge flick of energy appeared. Torento was surprised by that, he started to hesitate, but his feet were too close to Zerlan.

Things!!!

They clashed swords with all their might, the power of the energy created was immense.

Thing!!!

Torento must be shocked by his sword suddenly breaking into two pieces, Zerlan can't be stopped. He quickly lunged at Torento.

The death stab landed right on the body that pierced through.

“Argh… how is this? Why is he able to do all this?” Torento glared violently into Zerlan's eyes.

Zerlan exuded an enormous seriousness.

Torento's body slowly collapsed by itself just as the sword was pulled from his body.

The atmosphere became silent, Zerlan slightly couldn't believe what was happening. He was able to kill everyone who was there.

“Huh… now what will happen after this, but….”

His eyes glanced at Cearuleus, light continuously pulsing from that sword.

"Perhaps I should be prepared for the upcoming battle, here there will be no mercy!"

Since that night Zerlan decided to hone his skills, before he entered the competition his body had to become stronger.

He continued to explore the forest in search of a place to make it even better, some monsters like bears, giant insects, and others were perfect targets for training.

***

In a fairly quiet area he looked at the entire area with sharp eyes.

"Who would have thought that he also had one of those swords, but how come I can feel a large amount of energy from that sword?"

The scene he saw was the day he was meeting Zerlan, the great power of Cearuleus kept on his mind..

Time flies so fast, the sky in front of Zerlan's eyes has already turned dusk.

 

"Tomorrow is the day of the competition, I definitely won't lose to anyone!"

A change in attitude happens in Zerlan body's, now he is starting to understand something he may have been ignoring.

The next day….

The people in the city had already started to gather, no one wanted to miss seeing the fight.

The participants were gathered in the middle of the field, there were 80 participants with different personalities. They were facing towards the seat of a King named Nirobi.

The big man continued to give everyone a glare. "Perhaps one of them will be suitable to be against me and him!" His eyes glanced at the sword stuck in a special place.

"Alright, now let's start this competition!" The presenter came to greet everyone. “I'm so glad that all of you were able to come today to witness the 80 participants who will be fighting together for the prize of 300 plus various other prizes! It would be an honor if anyone could win this battle in front of the King of the Viarena Kingdom!”

Everyone cheered loudly.

"Now our fighters will go straight into the queue to pick up the papers in different jars, each one of them will get the same number with a different color!"

The number 33 is the number that Zerlan got. “Huh… this number is quite far, maybe I just don't have any luck with this!”

“Alright, now that all the fighters have got their numbers, they'll be in the waiting room until it's their turn! Go ahead, for number one please come forward!”

Two people had been standing on the arena, they were staring intently. One tall and burly man against a man with long hair like a woman.

Zerlan from a distance wanted to know who would win the fight. "Uh?" He turned his head towards two o'clock, someone from a distance was glancing at him. "He…."

The fight has started, the first participant has done a very epic duel. Everyone who was there was really amused by the fight.

Crash!!!

The one who won the match was the man with long hair, his deadly slash through the burly man's body.

“Whooah!!!”

Great cheers rumbled throughout the area, seeing participants lose and die was quite a great thing.

“I knew that this duel had a death risk!” There was no explanation on the registry about the consequences of death, but no one was surprised by it.

For sword users, death is a natural thing.
