V1 - CH3: The Birds First Flight ¡°Legends builds infamous names, We,,, the war maidens builds peaceful future¡± ¨C Golden Lion
¡¶¡¸??¨€?????¨€??¡¹¡· As he walk to the crystal built park and looking at those ephemeral lights of the ice lamp post, he can feel how it was magnificent to make such crystalline grandeur display just to appease all the passerby, he just then went to the outer most part of the city and take a leisure walk outside the walls of this city, he then finding a good spot and take rest at the side of the huge rock. He then start to release a mild breathing as he stares to the snowy skies, he just there staring at the winter world he is current viewing, as he take a leisure sitting, a young girl emerged from the road he pass off, she have a dark blue long hair with braided hair in each side of her face, black sharp eyes with a dragon like iris, she have a small pink lips and chiseled cheeks. She is wearing a cerulean colored battle suit with blue armor plates that have a yellow linings on the shoulder, arm, hips and legs, covering her chest, two Odachi blades at her left hip strapped, she have a leather finger less gloves, a pair of metallic shoes, she have a honorable and dignified impression, she walks slowly as she move to the area where the young lad in black coat resting at. The young lad just ignored her and continued to stare at the snowy skies as he reminisces the memories of his past, the young girl notice his leisure laying above the rock as he stares to the skies, just giving a simple glimpse of his face and then she start to draw her very long, sharp and somewhat intimidating Odachi blade and make a training exercise of sword mastery. When the girl starts her training, the young lad in black coat notice her, he then shifted his calculative gaze on her sword training, he study the positioning, the balance and the coordination of the movement of the young girl that training, often the blade swing is on right angle, it still need some improvements, she seems full of offense but lack in defense. She is full of vicious and deadly angular of attack but lacks of defensive coordination, she is full of blind spot and weak spot and not caring about it, although her blade movement was superb to extent, her defenses is very fragile, so much flaw can seen through it, she need to style up her swordsmanship and should not focus on full force or full throttle of attack. ¡°Even how much fast her reaction speed,,, when she is already exhaust from attacking,,, she could not defend herself,,, she will be the first to be taken down,,, if she didn¡¯t get a supporter to aid her¡± he thought as he sigh in disbelief. After a few minutes, the girl was so exhaust, she breathing heavy as her sword edge reaches the ground as she rest her arms while holding it tightly, but few moments, she then return once again to train and make another multiple swings, few moments, the same scenario, taking a few rest and made a heavy training, the young lad frown and question himself, is she really do this every day. ¡°You¡¯re okay?¡± he suddenly spoken as his eye taken pity to the girl¡¯s exhaustive exercise. ¡°I¡¯m fine it¡¯s none of your business!¡± The girl blurted out and then stands still. ¡°I see, then help yourself¡± He then said and toss from his pocket a drinking satchel to the girl. ¡°This? But I have my,,,¡± The girl spoke but then cut by him. ¡°I admire your sword mastering, but you have a lot of flaws and opening¡± He suddenly speak his keen observation. ¡°What did you say?¡± The girl shocked suddenly as she looks directly to the black coated guy. ¡°Precise hit,,, multiple swing,,, accurate slashing,,, that can give critical damage,,, to anyone you wants to hit¡± He said as he then jump from the rock he lied as he drew his steps closer to the girl. ¡°But when you drew your breath,,, your speed decreases,,, defense potential falls¡± he said as he look to the long blade Odachi of hers. ¡°I see,,, ehem! Are you proficient in sword fights young sir?¡± The girl said with accepting tone, although the words stricken her year out training routine, she felt that the young lad was right. ¡°I know that you are hard working War Maiden,,, I can see it through you¡± He nods in response and then spoke as his face return to stoic impression. The girl stiffens, how can he sense that she is a War Maiden? Only the War Maiden can sense War Maidens, how did he know? The girl was totally stun and can¡¯t believe it, first he knows too well about swordsmanship, now, he can sense that she is a particularly a War Maiden, the girl then comfort herself for a moment as she takes a deep breath and the let it go in the snowy weather. ¡°Just who are you?¡± The War Maiden said as she gripped her weapon. ¡°I was once like you,,, training hard,,, and finding way to become strong,,, but it was all in the past¡± He spoke as he then look to the ground. ¡°You mean that you throw away your pride and glory for the sword?¡± The War Maiden speaks as she understands what the young lad¡¯s meaning is. ¡°Yes,,, I¡¯ve exchange it,,, for a peaceful life that I¡¯ve sought,,, but now¡± he said as he stares up to the skies. ¡°Corruptors, yes it is, they are the core source of never ending war, we, the War Maidens serves us their inquisitors¡± she said the answer, she seems feel comfort talking with this stranger. ¡°I like how you put effort to your training,,, looks like I,,, will give and exception¡± he spoke as he then control his dark power within and let it flow to his hands and morphs into a Katana blade, he then made a few swings and then face the War Maiden. ¡°I will help you to reach the pinnacle,,, in a week,,, just tell me,,, what is your fighting for¡± He said with a stern face. Suddenly a burst forth of dark and hellish power explode to every directions, the wind become unstable and start to blow with pressuring breeze, the such power that even the snow on the ground vanquish and the rocky surface of the road become visible in a flash, the War Maiden was quiet terrified and she can feel the presence of power is so overbearing as it hails to her. She felt that she is currently facing a mountain but no, it was not just a mountain, but the tallest mountain can be find in this world, she can¡¯t believe it, he may be look like an average guy with a black coat but deep inside he is more horrorific than a swarm or horde of Corruptors that she ever face off, her legs are shaking, she starting to wet herself, cold sweat form over all her body, she can¡¯t move and feel stiffen , suppressed in her location without moving even a centimeter. ¡°They are here¡± he spoken as the group of silhouette of darkness appeared at the War Maidens back side. It was a total of four silhouettes; the first one was a tall and brawny man, next is the huge scorpion, followed by a beastly and ferocious tiger, finally a monstrous figure that seems embodiment of mixed monster as it looks very scary as it pass with agonizing sound, the war maiden just blankly stared at them as they pass through the young lad, the War Maiden still stiffen in her place, thinking of what will be her answer to the young lad¡¯s question. ¡°These will be your stage of training,,, I will give you guidelines and some useful tips,,, these visage of monsters are become,,, the replica of your will power¡± he speak again as he then snap her fingers and another silhouette appeared at the back side of the War Maiden and pass through her side.
