The dark guardian

C53

—I suppose that at this very moment you are wondering why I didn't teach you this technique when you were my student?—we were face to face and you could see on his face the great impression he had when he saw my new transformation and my new power— if I did it it was with the sole intention that it would not fall into the wrong hands since it is a very dangerous technique and it could not be in any hands—he pounced on me with his pointed sword, this time his movements were very predictable due to the hatred that contained, just when he was only centimeters from me—high there—I immobilized his arm, the arm that held his sword—you won't be able to continue using this technique either, Trasher , you've gone too far and I have to put an end to all this absurd fight 

"What the hell are you doing, Lord?" I took his hand, "I don't understand how you used that power to immobilize my hand and I didn't see the speed of your attack either, I'm supposed to be the fastest Dark among all of them and I couldn't even see your movement—he was puzzled as he squeezed her hand—tell me why? Why are you still standing after everything I've done to you? It is not logical that you are still standing after having received poisoned thrusts from my sword—he attacked again and again but I could easily dodge—this is inconceivable, it is not possible that you, being older, can pretend to be stronger than me, I I refuse to accept such a thing —he kept attacking me wrong—you can't be in front of me making me look inferior. Just tell me... How is it that you are triumphing over me , Lord?- once again he came with his attack, but this time he would use the only arm he had left in use. 

WHILE SO MUCH IN A CHILDHOOD MEMORY OF TRASHER

—You look at the guy who walks there—a high-ranking soldier told me while a guy was walking in some kind of royal corridor—that's Lord, he will soon become a Dark , our duty as his warriors is to serve him in soul and heart, if at any time you have to give your life for him you will, your name is Trasher , remember that every time you fight on behalf of our leader, Lord. You will only live to faithfully serve that man." He pointed to the guy walking elegantly. 

I remember when I was a child I met that man, that man who considered him the strongest of all I could almost see him as a god, he had no comparison, but I also remember that the dimension to which we belonged had a law and it was that he would not have There had to be weakness in the army, whoever was weak would only be expelled and never received in that dimension, so I had to fight day and night without rest to become a very strong man like the one I admired. That night there were many subjects who were fighting against me , they all made fun of me, but I was always brave so they did not face me, I fought against all of them, but they came out more and more, one of them grabbed me by my neck while that another would come to hit me and as if by magic I saw in the shadows the silhouette of a man who tore them to shreds in a matter of seconds. 

"What's your name?" I wonder .

name is Trasher . " I knelt in a bow

"Nice to meet you," he took my hand rising to the same height, "my name is Lord." 

That night I saw him as my idol, as someone to follow, I only breathed for him and my duty was to be with him , but it was not years later that I was able to join his army, I

He was among the people closest to him. 

—Good morning my lord—I knelt down arriving at his temple, it was guarded by other warriors—I am here to serve you. 

—I see that you were finally able to enter my army, Chico, I congratulate you and for that alone you already have a position—he observed me with admiration. 

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty." I knelt down again. 

—Hey, don't worry, you don't need to deal with those terms, what you call me Lord is fine— he smiled 

-as you think? It would be disrespectful to you knowing the command you have here.

—That's the least of it, Trasher , call me whatever you want—he looked unconcerned. 

"So it would be alright if I called him Lord?" I frowned. 

—Yes , boy, don't worry, if I send for you here it's not so you treat me like that, but because of the ability I've seen in you, so would you like to train with me? If not, tell me and you can go back the way you came. 

—How do you think—I jumped for joy because I would be next to the man whom I admired so much. 

I remember that one morning in a very large room we were lined up to receive Lord as His Majesty and he passed in front of me . 

"Hello, Trasher , " he stopped short and greeted me, "how have you been?" he smiled , " have my soldiers been treating you well?" Because if they haven't, smoke them and I'll punish them all. 

—Hello, your majesty—lower your eyes as a symbol of respect—everything is going very well. 

"What did you say?" he frowned, "that we had agreed?"

"Lord I meant" I retracted 

—That's how I like it, you notice that it's not a bit difficult to say it, I hope you don't get out of the habit of calling me, Lord.— I scratch his head—I'm still not used to being called with those terms, but come on, come with me —He called me with his hand, however, I still didn't react—I told you to move, Trasher and when I tell you to move you have to do it—he insisted.

"Sorry, I'll be right back" I ran to his direction. 

"Calm down," he caressed my hair , " I know you'll do very well. " 

Since then we were inseparable, we trained often and each time more intensely, I remember that once they seemed like some specters of which I could not defeat them due to my weakness and that same night, Lord destroyed them all giving me the opportunity to live. 

—I am very sorry, Lord, I have failed you, my duty is to protect you, not you me— I looked down very embarrassed, that was supposed to be what I was training for and the first thing I did was disappoint him. 

—Hey, don't worry about it, we're both a team and we work together, that's what teams do, right? It's not about who does more or who does less, in the end we fight under the same objective —he smiled and we left that place. 

On another night I was training late where everyone was already asleep, I trained in the forest with my sword, I had the responsibility to become stronger or I would always look ridiculous before, Lord, it was my duty to protect him. 

—So you were here—I felt Lord's hand on my shoulder—what are you doing at this hour? 

"I'm training to become stronger " I kept waving my sword from side to side. 

—come—he took me by the arms—if you want to become stronger I'll teach you how to use a sword—he began to show me his movements at my pace with delicacy and dedication. 

—I definitely can't—I threw my sword to the ground—I'm very sorry, Lord, but I don't have the necessary abilities to become stronger, I'm very sorry—I fell to my knees. 

—of course you can and more than you can imagine—he took my arms lifting me from the ground—it's next for today, you can't demand more than you can—I blunt the sword and gave it to me—please don't throw it away again, it will be yours best friend from this moment — she smiled giving me self-confidence—you know, you look a lot like me , your movements, your character, everything. I 've even come to see him as my younger brother whom I also have a duty to defend—hearing that had filled me with hope. 

-Thank you so much. Lord—I hugged him, because despite everything he was not only my teacher but also my best friend— I promise to be with you forever by your side faithfully. 

"Is it a promise?" He looked me straight in the eye. 

—It is… —without knowing what would happen later. 

Until one very early morning he arrives at his temple as he always did. 

—Lord, good morning, how are you today?— my voice echoed within the walls of the temple—are you here?—I kept walking to the throne where I always was and no, I wasn't. I was totally empty, that day I felt betrayed by the man I had admired all my life even believing him to be a god, the promise he had said were just lies, he was not with me forever. 

BACK TO BATTLE 

—That is why I now have a great hatred against you Lord, my hatred is stronger than me and that is why I promised myself that I would become stronger than ever—his rage was uncontrollable—you failed your promise, but now I You will pay dearly for them, you took my hopes with you all this time—he made his final attack with great fury, his sword came after my head, but I subtly took your hand and immobilized it in the same way I did with the other—? why?— He fell to his knees—why didn't you take me with you? You knew perfectly well that I would be with you despite what will happen, you don't know the damage your departure caused me. All this time filling my heart with hate.” Her tears began to roll down her cheeks. 

—You've become very strong, Trasher ,— I squatted down trying to reassure him—there are things you still won't understand, but in due time you will . Also I feel very proud that you have achieved by your own strength, even I feel good about how very strong you are now compared to when I met you— he was crying— look when I left you made me in my body, come on get up, I always carry in my memories in case you thought not. 

JAMES

Himura and I were still on the mount where the execution would take place fighting strongly, one sword colliding with the other, it was a measure of strength and will. 

—I see that you can already master the Flash step—I had used it in an attack he had made on me to get out unharmed—but that won't do you any good against my powers. 

—What is your praise due to, Himura ? —I hooked my sword to my shoulder—I had recently said that talking didn't solve anything, right? But now I see that you are the one who talks a lot and does little, are you tired or what ? Didn't you say that you would kill me?— I began to laugh—not even in all this time you have given me a single scratch, but come on, I need you to challenge your seal number two—I challenge it—you said that you would kill me with your own hands and that you also you would do it with Katsuro , come on what are you waiting for. 

—Of course I will, what I say I always do. 

—I won't allow that!— I enraged —I will do everything possible to destroy this instant, there will be no trace that a Dark called Himura once existed , now let's go—I sentenced him with my sword—release your seal number two and show me what you can do or else this battle will come to an end. 

—how many empty threats and no matter how much you talk you won't make me change my mind—his gaze was colder than before—the destination will always be the same, you will die just like katsuro , but I won't give you the luxury of dying with my seal number two, you are very stupid to ask for that—he placed his sword in front of him—seal number one—his sword began to distill a whirlwind of pins that were heading towards me . 

—don't make me laugh—I unsheathed my sword, a ray of light came out of it that made a part of the mountain split

"What is that lightning I just saw?" Part of his arm was bleeding. "Is that the true power of your sword?" No one had ever hurt me 

—That's right, my sword has the ability to absorb my power, turning it into a beam of maximum density power, cutting everything in its path—I buried my sword in the ground—but the funny thing is that until now I say to use it against someone.
