"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

"Becka come quickly I have to help him" he said in a panic, Becka was a bit confused but she figured out what she had to do quickly "Place him down, I can help him" Teras did what he was told, Becka's hands emitted a green light and the bunny was slowly getting healed, few seconds passed and the bunny was as good as new but it fell asleep "Thank you so much!" he said while kneeling down on his knees "Stand up kid you have a lot to learn, oh and kid for you it's Ms. Becka, if you call me Becka again I'm going to cut this tongue of yours, got it?" "Yes ma'am" "Good now come with me I will take you to hell" she said with a sweet smile that scared Teras, Teras then stood up "Let me take the bunny inside so it doesn't catch a cold" it was something stupid to do, at the time the temperature was really high even though the sun was set "Fine but make it quick" Teras then grabbed the bunny and ran to Tokkou's room, he placed the bunny on his desk and covered it with a blanket up t

In the end, Teras got to his room and he decided to lie down on his bed, he slowly fell asleep on this dark and quiet night "What are you doing?" said a shadowy figure "You are wasting your time you have to find them, fast he will not wait for you, so quickly get back on your feet and don't stop you should find them and put an end to this suffering because only you can don't ever forget that!" Teras woke up, he was full of sweat he felt heavy the whole world was moving around for him "What was that?" he asked himself out loud, indeed, what was that? After what Teras saw he decided to go outside for a night walk so he could calm down from this event, he was really concerned about his dream, he felt pressure he had never felt in his life. As he was walking in the dead calm town he saw a person in the distance, he didn't seem to possess any kind of weapon but he had a fixed look at Teras "Hey what are you doing this late at night!!?" Teras screamed at the man, the man must have g

The night was about to fall, the stars had begun to show, a strong wind was blowing and Cromi was about to fall asleep inside his backpack of Teras, the 2 of them were traveling across a big forest with little to no idea of what's the environment is like, Teras was overly cautious about every sound he heard, the sound the leaves made, the sound of the branches hitting one another, he didn't leave anything unchecked, he was always using mana vision, so his mana was about to run out, he was feeling like he was being watched so he settled down as nothing happened, he took out his camping tent and started building it, about 4 minutes later he was done, he then placed his backpack and Cromi inside the tent and decided to scout out for danger. He searched around for a bit but he couldn't seem to see anything suspicious but he could feel something was off, annoyed he screamed "COME OUT I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU!!!" There was no answer, it was like he was talking to a wall 'I have to stop and t

"You have to find a guard and tell him to guide you to the exam's location" he then thanked the girl and apologized for his forgetfulness and left the center, he then tried to find a local guard but couldn't, most of them had already taken a lot of other people to the exam, he then decided to go to his last resort, the entrance of the town, he quickly found a guard, unthankfully for him the guard was the same guard that he saw yesterday, the one that he

The man over the world
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,

Wild Card
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

Unincluded
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

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

The lost piece
Teras then headed to the waterfall one last time to talk to Tokkou, once he arrived he hid behind a tree and watched Tokkou practice his powers, it's a rare occurrence to see a possessor of a high-rank card go all out, Tokkou was moving large trees and rocks around the place like nothing, he was gathering trees left and right and pressured all the trees and rocks together, he screamed "God's grip" the rocks and trees crashed into one another with a powerful force, and fragments of the rock flew out violently, one of the fragments scratched Teras on his cheek, but Teras didn't react, he was amused by the power Tokkou had, Tokkou then flew to the air, faced the opposite side where Teras was and yelled "God's push" a large number of trees and rocks flew away with force, and the whole place was destroyed but the trees around the waterfall remained fine, Tokkou then decided to relax on a remaining rock on the ground, Teras took advantage of his break and went to talk to him "Tokkou!! w

We had a meeting last month so having another one seems kind of useless to me'Tokkou thought as he walked towards the castle, he was wearing a long coat, and he didn't want to attract attention to him since that would have only delayed his tripAfter walking he came across a protest full of demons, it wasn't so big but it was enoug

The monster and the beast
~Somewhere at Thrisk a certain someone kept on knocking at a mansion's door but he was multiple times ignored~ "I swear I will kill those self-entitled rich guys that don't even bother answering the door..." Jem mumbled to himself as he kept on knocking on the door, but even after those tries he got no response "TERAS SENT ME GOD DAMMIT! OPEN THIS DOOR IT'S IMPORTANT!" Jem screamed with all of his force and suddenly the door opened, a familiar red-haired lady opened the door "Did you say Teras?" Becka asked Jem with a surprised look "I need to talk to Tokkou!" Jem said as he entered the mansion "I'm afraid master Tokkou is in the capital attending a royal meeting, and he won't return until the end of this week so if it isn't something important then I suggest you come later..." Becka said as she weirdly looked at the man that suddenly came inside the mansion "And what if I told you that Teras's life was in danger, would you be any help then?" Jem asked Becka while staring a

Electrical breakdown
~In the other side of the forest where everyone was fighting~ Blades were clashing against each other, and sparks were launched left and right, it was a mess but in this mess, it looked like the villagers were having the upper hand, the main units of the bandits were focused on Lia and Cara since they were the only card users, but little did they know the villager was holding a bigger surprise for them "So we meet again lighting lady! Seems like you didn't get enough beating before" Sot said as he manically jumped around "Not this time Sot, I will be handling her, with your powers fighting the water b*tch is the best option" Tristan said as he grabbed the right shoulder of Sot "Ahh come on! Don't ruin my fun like that" Sot said with a sad expression "Lia those idiots think that we are the same as before so act weak at first and when the times come let's beat their asses once and for all" Cara whispered to Lia's eat as he pulled her sword from its case, and before they could no
