Lost in the Path of Fate

Chapter 12 - Gideon Woodlock (4)

A/N: Song is "Between Us" by Little Mix. You can find it on YouTube! 

I was listening to the song when writing this chapter so I suggest you do to for a better reading experience :D

P.S., Yes, I am an all time fan of Little Mix since a few years ago and listening to the song also breaks my heart :(.

A sword.

"Here, you can have that" Pier spoke as he was holding the sword with the help of his wind magic so he can lift it.

Gideon watched with a speechless expression as his young master sat on the opposite side of the table and while he also placed the sword on the table.

The sword had a metal handle and there was a blue sapphire gem embedded in the middle of it. Accompanying the sapphire gem was a small bluish ornament that was also hanging from the sword's handle.

"Young Master..." Gideon spoke when he saw the beautiful sword.

"I said take that" Pier ordered and Gideon was stunned.

"N-No, young master! I could not take something like this!" He retaliated as he stared at the sword with wide eyes.

"Gideon, take the sword" Pier insisted as continuous knocks were heard on the door of floor they were currently in. 

"My Lord, we have delivered the food" One of the servants spoke and Pier nodded his head.

"Tell them to come in" Pier spoke and Gideon hesitated as he glanced at the sword for another moment.

"Come in!" Gideon spoke and the door opened.

Two servants entered and they trudged towards the table where the esteemed guests from the House of Masters were sitting.

They also saw the sword that was laid out on the table and they stopped for just a second to eye the grand sword that was based on the color blue. 

'What a sword' One of them thought as he eyed the two.

Who would be using the sword? 

'Probably the attendant' He thought in jealousy of the attendant getting a sword from the noble man.

After they have delivered the food, they proceeded to step out of the floor and leave the two again.

"You go and eat all of that. I'm too full" Pier responded as he removed the hood from covering his head once more.

"B-But young master..." Gideon hesitated as the sword was placed on the side.

It's shining body was just magnificent to look at and the handle was the same. It exuded a very elegant aura that any swordsman who sees it would wish to hold the sword.

"Haha, you don't have to worry about that, Gideon. I told you I'd give you another sword since you lost the previous one I gave you, right?" Pier asked as he looked at one of the windows.

The shining lights that were scattered around the Capital gave the young master a calming feeling. Wind entered the floor and Pier's hair swayed along with it as well.

Gideon watched as Pier tucked his slightly long hair behind his ear.

"Then... Then I give you my utmost gratitude, young master" Gideon spoke in a low voice as he observed the sword.

"Try it out, no one's here to see you anyway" Pier commented as he comfortably leaned back on the chair and Gideon nodded his head.

He grabbed the sword and he had a surprised expression on his face again.
