Another morning came by, a morning with happiness and brand new dreams, some villagers were already preparing for the big night that was waiting for them, for all of them, this night was dedicated to the win they had against the bandits, the bandits that opposed the villagers and abused their power for over a month At this time all of Teras's friends had woken up but decided to stay at the house because they knew if they left then they would have been busy with all of the happy villagers, Har and Lia were already in the shared area cooing food, Teras wanted to join them but he was unable since he had a sleeping Cara on top of him 'When did she get here? I'm sure that last night I slept alone so when did this happen?' Teras thought as he was blushing, he was still not comfortable with how he ended up with Cara but he was... happy? 'Everything is perfect now but why do I feel like... empty... Yeah empty is the only way I can describe this feeling, I don't specifically feel sad but no
After all of the alcohol and food, everyone consume the previous night they couldn't do anything but sleep so that's what everyone did, many fell asleep on the table, some inside the bar, and others on the floor but ORION was responsible enough to go back home, they slept peacefully on their bed"Hahahahahah!"Teras heard a man laugh like a maniac"What's so funny?"He asked, but the man still kept on laughing his soul out, he couldn't catch a breath"Shut up!"Teras yelled but the man just barely managed to contain himself"Sorry, sorry! I just couldn't believe that you thought you won!"Suddenly the dark surrounding where Teras and the man stood turned into an arena formed by many people, the man had blood on his head and Teras was holding the blade that caused the bleeding of the man"You are bleeding I don't see a reason laughing this much"Teras replied as he inspected the sword in his hand"I'm laughing at you kid! How can you be this stupid? To think that you actually think you
After this eventful night the whole village was surrounded by crimson butterflies, they all sucked the blood of the fallen Crimson butterflies are the most tragic creatures in the world, they can see the bad things but can't stop them, they can warn people but all they do is attract people and animals closer to danger, they want to spread life but they fed on death, they can't be surprised or caught, and the only way for them to die is suicide Why does god create such creatures? So beautiful yet so scary, everyone asked but none could reply This kind of thought ran into Rex's mind as he kept running away from Yuta, the village he grew up in, but where was he heading? He had nowhere to go, none to talk to That was the case until he saw a carriage approach him "I must be dizzy from driving but is this a child?" Uncle Jem wondered as he was approaching Rex "There is indeed a boy walking towards us, but why is he covered in blood?" Tokkou wondered as he poked his head out of the ca
Nobody dared to move, Joker was standing pridefully while staring down at Orion, it was like a wild animal looking at its pray before devouring it, Teras could see a similar aura around the man like Tokkou's, maybe because he was a card possessor, or maybe because both he and Tokkou didn't have good intentions when they met Teras but one thing was for certain This man isn't going to let them live so Teras had to do something in order for everyone to escape "Why are you doing this? If you want to kill us then do it already!" Teras said as he lifted up his head "Why? There is no "why"! I just feel like doing this, are you going to do something about it?" The Joker asked Teras while continuing to smile "If you enjoy causing trouble this much then why aren't you attacking the royal capital? You are the legendary Joker after all" Teras told him ironically, the Joker didn't like that "You are a comedian aren't you? Then how about you tell me a joke, if I laugh then I will let you go,
The Joker charged at Teras with the speed of sound and tried to slash him with his blade but Teras was able to block the attack and also counter-attacked with his sword, but the Joker managed to dodge the attack by kicking Teras's hand, the Joker then tried to stab Teras with his dagger but Teras was able to catch Joker's hand before attacking'This boy is.... sucking my mana out of my body! Don't tell me this guy is an angel'The Joker thought, only angels had this kind of abilities but most angels were dead, well to make it easier to understand only one angel was still aliveThe Joker tried to free himself with a headbutt but even after hitting Teras, the Joker was still unable to free himselfTeras then with a powerful attack of his sword, he launched the Joker in the air, and then followed with an air slash with the mana-enhanced dagger, this attack made Joker fly above all of the treesThe Joker could see everything from up there, after some while the Joker started falling but be
It started on a quiet night, in the middle of nowhere, a spark ignited, a boy opened his tearful eyes, all he could see was darkness "Where am I?" he muttered, his arms and legs were trapped in the roots of a tree "What is this place?" he said as he was trying to free himself, but he couldn't do anything scared and confused he tried one more time to free himself as hard as he could, he did it he freed himself, as he was falling to his knees he felt warm water "Is anybody here?!" he screamed, but the only thing he could hear was his own echo "Please someone help me!" but there was no answer he started to panic and started to find a way to get out of this place, it was hard for him since he couldn't see but with time he regained his sight, then he realized. "Is this a dead tree? How did I even end up here?" he tried to recall it but nothing would come up to his mind, he was clueless, he had lost his memories "I have to get out of here fast, this place could collapse at any tim
Teras had spotted a sword on a desk while he had this whole conversation with Tokkou so when he had the chance he run for it, Teras grabbed the sword and tried to jump off the window, in a blink of an eye Tokkou kicked Teras across the room "Are you suicidal or something kid?" he said with anger "So you use the power of the cards too huh?" he said with a cracking voice "Which card was this? because this can't be the same that the one fatty used, your aura is more ominous " "You got good eyes I'm gonna give you that kiddo" he replied with a smug face "Look I don't use that stupid sword anymore so let's make a deal if you can even touch me in a minute this sword is all yours plus I'm gonna tell you about the cards, fair deal, isn't it? Teras looked him in the eyes and said "BRING IT ON!!!" "You have some guts kid, so here are the rules you have to strike me or even touch me within a time limit of 1 minute, if you can achieve that then you win, keep in mind I can use my ability
The next day came, Teras just woke up with the pain of his wounds nearly disappeared, the birds were singing a song full of happiness, the maids of Tokkou were already cleaning and tidying his mansion, when Teras got out of the bed he felt hungry, the only thing he had eaten were the berries he found on the forest he was when he woke up, he couldn't help but get lost so he went to Tokkou's room, because it was the only room he knew on the mansion, he opened the door in surprise because he found the room clean and tidy, it was like the first time he saw, even the hole on the wall was almost perfectly fixed, the only thing that was missing was Tokkou, the person he was trying to find 'This is a really big house for a single person like Tokkou' he thought to himself, Teras then decided to head outside, surprisingly Tokkou was enjoying a nice hot cup of tea in the back yard of his home "Tokkou what are you doing this early in the morning?" "What does it looks like? I'm relaxing, you kn
