    Varan Surya the King of the Solmar clan leaned forward. What secret?!


    Rudra Vael the last king of the Asvaran clan smiled with a fiery blood dripping from his lips.

 Chapter:3 THE RUSTED SWORD

    Year''s rolled seasons passed like fleeting shadows, each one shaping him is into something stronger


    His grandfather training was relentless-strike, dodge, repeat. One morning, exhausted and bruised, our fifteen year old Rivaan snapped.

    He shouted, What do you even know about the battle, The grandfather said nothing and simply walked away.


    If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.


    After that all these years Rivaan always sees a thing common in house.


    A rusted sword almost at the edge of Corrosion, one day out of curiosity.


    He tries to lift the sword, but a strange weight is pressed on his chest.


    That sword isn''t meant for you Virat said from behind.


    Rivaan scowled." Why do you have it old man? You don''t even fight!


    His grandfather traced a hond over the blade. "This sword has taken more lives than you can imagine, he said quietly. And if in your luck you will see the wrath of that sword.


    From that day on, he never touched the rusted sword again.


    But Rivaan in back of mind always thinks that this old man is just making tales

 Chapter 4: Friend and Family

    One day Rivaan was exploring the Jungle, now our 15 year old Rivaan, moved swiftly through trees, drawn by the distant clash of metal¡¤


    Then he saw them -  Warriors.


    Their armors gleamed in sunlight that broke through the dense canopy They moved with a practice, grace, laughing sharing stories of war battles Rivaan had never imagined.


    One of the tall men with a scar over his right eye noticed him. He sheathed his sword and walked toward the boy.


    You have been watching the warrior Said with a smirk. You thinking of becoming a warrior?


    Rivaan hesitated for a moment then nodded I want to be strong like you.


    At first he was shocked but he chuckled, Strength isn''t just about swinging swords. It''s about what you fight for.


    He ruffled Rivaan''s hair. What''s your name? Rivaan, The warrior smiled, I am Kael, maybe one day I''ll see you in battle.


    Before leaving rivaan asked kael, will you teach me, how to fight?. Kael asked will can you do anything to be strong. Rivaan with courage, and confidence Yes!.


    Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.


    And then Kael smiled, you can come from tomorrow, and rivaan rivaan filled with happiness and excitement


    And then after that day Rivaan went to Kael everyday, he became like friends or for Rivaan kael is a mentor also.


    One day  Rivaan rushed back home, he found his grandfather seated next to the fireplace, his eyes staring deep into the flames


    Grand-father, I want to become a warrior!


    The old man''s expression darkened. He shook his head. No Rivaan. You are not meant for battle.


    But  I -"


    You are a Jaeger. That is  your fate his grandfather''s voice was the stern final.Rivaan clenched his fist.


    And what if I don''t want to be Jaeger ?


    His grandfather sighed. You will understand by time.


    Two years passed Rivaan had stronger training in secret with Kael in the forest.


    On his seventeenth birthday, the village gathered to celebrate & Fire torches burned bright, and laughter echoed through air.


    One by one, the villagers stepped forward, offering him gifts for Rivaan''s help, kindness and Love.


    There is the memory of day, one day Kael Saw Rivaan helping villagers, He helped blacksmith carry heavy iron, ran errand''s shopkeeper who couldn''t walk, by this children adored him, animals trusted him and villagers respected him. Due to this Kael said, You are too kind for your own good, Rivaan.


    To which Rivaan said with grin, Some one has to be.


    Then black smith gave him a dagger, the healer gave him a rare herb, and the children brought him flowers. But Rivaan was thinking about Kael.


    A day before that Rivaan met kael as usual but today was different. Kael had come to say good bye.


    I''m leaving soon, Rivaan  kael said Rivaan heart sank. Take me with you! Kael chuckled, Not yet. But here - He reached into his cloak and pulled out a small metallic relic. It was golden, Shaped like a wing.


    This will let you fly anything Kael Said placing it in "Rivaan palm. One day, when you find me, return it- only if you have something greater to offer in exchange.


    Rivaan gripped the relic. I swear I will, Kael smiled. Then I''ll be waiting.

 CHAPTER 5: The Echo of Legend

    The people were celebrating in full swing. The entire village gathers the music filling the air.


    After a while Rivaan''s grandfather called him by sign, he took rivaan to the house and took him inside. Said wait, I will be back, after a while he brought a small chest which has ancient engravings.


    It''s time, his grandfather said, holding out a strange glove. It was made of leather but its echo was different with a faintly glowing compass embedd on the back?This is the Life Glove. It will guide you when time is right.


    Rivaan frowned. The compass isn''t working.His grandfather smiled sadly. It will, when you need it the most.


    Before Rivaan could ask more, a loud roar of laughter and music erupted from outside. But further in distance... a darker sound grew.


    On the edge of the village, the Lunetra Clan was going.


    Earlier that day, they had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of warriors. from another land. Enraged and humiliated commander''s fury burned.


    They spotted the village celebrating.Burn it down the commander ordered coldly. Punish them all.


    Like a storm, Lunetra soldiers charged in, House set ablaze, Women and children beaten, some men executed. A scream of terror filled the night.


    Rivaan heard the cries.


    He ran outside. His eyes widened in horror. A young girl screamed as a Lunetra soldier raised his sword to strike.


    With a single, power kick, he sent the soldier flying backwards. The girl clutched his arm.


    If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.


    More soldiers rushed, Rivaan grabbed a fallen sword and took a stance. He had never fought real warriors before-but today, there was no choice.


    steel clashed against steel as Rivaan dodged, blacked and struck back


    But then.. The commander from the back tries to stab rivaan, he stepped the moment he did, everything stopped.


    A pressure of echo burst unlike any-thing commander soldier and Rivaan felt filled the air. Soldiers froze in place their heart skipping a beat.


    The presence beyond human - a monstrous aura that made even the Lunetra warrior''s tremble.


    The commander turned, his eyes narrowing.


    An old man walked forward, holding a rusted sword


    At first, the commander dismissed him. Just an old fool But then...


    The rusted sword shimmered. The rust peeled away like dust in the wind, revealing a blade of pure silver double-edged, deadly.And then-


    A shock wave of echo pressure burst forth. A force so overwhelming that the very ground shook The commander''s eyes widened in disbelief,He knew that sword.No... it can''t be.


    The legendary Jaeger


    The man once known as Wrathborn!And that man stood before him now- Rivaan''s grandfather-Virat.The old man closed his eyes


    And in the blink of an eye-fifty soldier''s fellNo one saw the move nor strikes.


    One moment, the soldiers stood. The next their head''s hit the ground


    The commander trembled. Impossible Rivaan''s grandfather turned to him. Run Rivaan. Now


    But....Go! His voice shook the air with power.


    The commander noticed Rivaan''s glove- his eyes darkened.Capture the boy! he ordered.


    Rivaan turned and ran.Through the burning village, into the jungle Rivaan dan with all his strength.


    But Lunetra soldiers surrounded him. He clenched his fist''s ready to fight Then-Then-...A deafening screech tore through the sky.


    The soldier froze in fear as a massive shadow loomed over head.A Griffith.


    The beast descended with fury, it''s talon''s tearing through soldiers, it breaks beak snapping bone like twigs.


    Rivaan stared in shock.


    Griffith turned to him. It''s eyes they were intelligent .


    It lowered his body as if offering a ride.


    Rivaan hesitated - then leaped onto his back.


    Where are you taking me?! he shouted. Griffith spread its wings and they soared into the sky.?

 CHAPTER 6: The Warriors Oath

    Rivaan''s body ached as he slowly regained consciousness. The golden Sky stretched endlessly above him. His head throbbed, but he forced him sef him self to sit up.


    Nearby, Griffith stood tall, its massive wings folded. But Rivaan knew they. couldn''t travel unnoticed with Griffith. His finger instinctively reached for the pendant hanging around his neck - the relic his grandfather had given him.


    His grandfather''s words echoed in his mind.


    This will allow you to take Griffith anywhere. Place around him, and he will become small enough to carry but as long as you keep it on him.


    Rivaan turned to griffith and gently placed the pendant around its neck. A faint glow surrounding the beast once-mighty creature let out a surprised Chirp as its body became small as like now can sit one shoulder easily.


    Well, that Worked, Rivaan muttered, rubbing the small griffith head as it nuzzled him.


    Just as he was about to catch his breath, the sharp sound of clashing swords cut through the air.


    Rivaan quickly placed griffith er in his bag then moved to-ward''s that little forest area see a lone warrior battling a group of bandits.


    Rivaan turned sharply and sought it down near the bush.


    The warrior moved with precision but there is a strange thing, Rivaan noticed the warrior was fighting with two swords one in each hand.


    His blades carve through enemies with calculated strikes. He was clearly skilled, but the sheer number of opponents threatened to overwhelm him.


    His fighting skills amazed rivaan Rivaan saw a band and tried to stab the warrior from behind.


    Rivaan didn''t hesitate. He dashed forward kicking that bandit ribs, Bending away warrior notices, rivaan and then two fought together Seamlessly. Rivaan dodged an incoming blade, grabbing a fallen Sword and slicing the  bandits.


    This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.


    The warrior using the opening delivered a strike to the final bandit, but he stopped and said run as far as you to your leader and tell him now, I am not going to work with him.


    Then the bandits last person run. away in the woods.


    Rivaan was witnessing all this.


    The warrior wiped his sword clean and turned to Rivaan, his sharp eyes Scanning him.


    You fight well.


    You weren''t doing too bad yourself, Rivaan replied, smirking.


    The warrior smirked back. Name''s Reiner and You?


    Rivaan.


    They sat on the grass their exhaustion settling in. Rivaan gaze fell on Reiner''s Swords.


    These swords look special Rivaan said.


    Reines nodded ¡¤ Yeah, this one belongs to my father.


    Rivaan asked what about the other One?


    Reiner replied, oh! this is just a normal one from a local blacksmith.


    After they sit a little more ,gain energy


    Reiner stretched, then looked at Rivaan


    Where are you going?


    Rivaan hesitated before answering. I need to find my friend. His mind flashed back to Kael.


    Reiner asked do you know where to go? or do you need help?


    Rivaan replied ,Yeah you are right, I don''t know where to go?


    Reines, I can help you, Rivaan with wide open eyes, why? really? But why?


    Reiner, because you saved my life and now as a warrior, I owe you one now ,you till then I will help you.


    Then Reiner stood up took his swords and asked rivaan to stand up too.


    But Rivaan said, I don''t know where he is right now, I don''t know how long or far we need to travel?


    Reiner smirked. Then we will need a ship.


    Rivaan frowned. Where exactly are you going to sail the ship... in the middle of land?


    Reines chuckled. You have never heard of skyships, have you?


    Rivaan blinked. Skyships? You''re Joking


    Reiner leaned back. You think ships are only meant to sail the sea? In this world, the sky is Just another ocean..


    Rivaan scoffed, but deep down, curiosity burned inside him. Alright, suppose these skyships exist. Where do we find one?


    Reiner smirk deepened. There''s a port not too far from here by black market, mercenary outpost, not the kind of place you''d want to stroll into unarmed.


    Rivaan without any fear said, my body is strong enough don''t you know. Rivaan took his bag and tightened everything & said, then what are we waiting for? Let''s get a ship.


    Reiner chucked, pushing himself to his feet. I like your spirit, so let''s go even I don''t have a place to go now.


    Reiner, we should reach the city by nightfall. If we''re lucky, we''ll find a captain willing to take us.


    Rivaan, and if we''re not lucky?


    Reiner, then we ship ourselves.


    Then both of the people marched towards the city:


    Mysterious figure: Visitors are Coming

 CHAPTER 7: Chains Of Valtara

    The scent of salt and damp wood fillqed the air as Rivaan and Reines stepped onto the bustling docks of Valtara. The city was a paradox - once a flourishing trade hub, now a prison of greed and corruption. Merchant stalls lined the street.


    Their owners watch warily as bandits and slavers patrolled openly, as if they were the rulers of this land.


    Rivaan adjusts the strap of his bag, glancing at griffith in the bag. This place feels... wrong, he muttered


    Reiner walked ahead, his swords resting on his back. Places like this exist everywhere, he replied. The strong take what they want, and the weak endure it.


    They approached a group of ship dealers, eager to find a flying vessel, but the moment they inquired about a price, a greedy-looking merchant sneered at them:


    You want a ship ? Ha! That''ll be twenty thousand Crowns it''s worth, he chuckled. Unless you''re working with the syndicate, you pay twenty times.


    Rivaan frowned. That''s absurd.


    The merchant shrugged. Then walk.


    As they moved from stall to stall, the story was the same. Honest traders gave them fair prices, but they all whispered the same warning- if the syndicate catches us selling to outsiders, we''re finished.


    Frustrated and exhausted Rivaan and Reiner decided to rest, they need to find a place to stay


    They entered a bar, full of disgusting. people who were drunk, they sat on the counter. Reiner asked a beautiful lady for water to drink and some things to eat.


    This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it


    The lady poured that was the water, and said we only have these day fruits Reiner grateful to get said thank you and, they both started eating


    From the corner a girl came a young girl with shorts, unkempt hair'' and big, brown eyes approached them.


    Would you like this cupcake? She asked softly.


    Reiner, what''s your name girl?


    The girl replied, Mira.


    Where is your mother Mira? There at the counter.


    Oh! I see, Reiner replied.


    Rivaan with a smile why not, Mira; There were two cupcakes Rivaan, and Reines take each, but Rivaan Shared it with, Mira.


    Mira while eating continuously staring at Reiner sword.


    Reines asked, do you like this, Mira replied Yes, you look so cool."


    Reiner chuckled and Rivaan said You look cute and beautiful Mira.


    Before they could eat completely , a group of three thugs swaggered into the stall. Their leader, a scarred man with a, jagged girn, slammed his fist on the counter.


    Hey brat! Where''s our drink? he barked at Mira.


    The girl stiffened. M-My mother said... no more drinks on credit''


    The thug''s expression darkened. He reached out, slapping the cake from her hands, sending it tumbling to the dirt, You little rat, he growled


    Reiner seeing all this, he stands up and confronts their leader, his fingers twitched toward his sword, but Mira, fearful of what happened, quickly grabbed a mug and poured them drinks.


    Then, Rivaan pulls Reiner by pulling him back, the thugs, laughing mocking Reiner and Rivaan, Outsideas, huh? You won''t last long here, one sneered before they walked away


    Reiner just only God knows how. he controlled himself.


    Reiner reached his pocket and pressed a few silver coins into Mira''s palm. For the food and buy something for yourself also, he said simply.


    Mira hesitated, then whispered Thank you.


    Before leaving Rivaan said, I will pay your owe which you did to us, then Both left again to find the ship.


    Mira hurried back to her mother, near the counter wiping down glasses, Despite her mother''s simple dress and weary eyes, there was unmistakable grace to her which drew attention to the wrong people.


    Those thugs after talking with Reiner are still there and, in a drunk state ask for more but mira is at back so they went back to catch her.


    As Mira handed her the money. She beamed. You did well, my little one, she said gently.


    But peace just shattered, That thug with his people came in.


    We were too kind earlier, the scarred man sneered. since your brat refused us before we''re taking... compensation


    First they tried to grab mira but her mothers beauty increased those people''s urges.


    The leaders said, your mother would be better than you & Sera tensed as one man reached for her arm. Mira screamed.


    You can''t! Please - !


    The leader grinned wickedly. Oh we can. And no one in this city will stop us.


    Call any one, no one will help you girl.


    And then those basterd people, took her mother like she is a thing which they can take.
