The Jesters Of Cards

Trials

Sun was slowly waking up after he felt something punching him. 

Sun: Hat, what the fuck? 

He opened his eyes and found himself close to a medieval village.

Sun: What the hell. Where am I?

He walked through  a snowy medieval village and eventually came to a mountain with a pedestal in front of it. Something was carved into it. 

Reclaim the necklace to open the path of your inner self to escape the illusion of a realm.

Sun: A necklace? Where am I going to find exactly this specific necklace?

The carvings changed.

Worn by royal blood all day.

Sun: Royal blood.... A member of the royal family has it. I should go to the castle as fast as possible.

He ran through the smowy village, climbed over and few walls and entered the ballroom through a unlocked balcony door. He climbed on a griffin fugure, which was just big enough for Sum to properly sit down. He was watching the princess of the kingdom fight a jester.

Sun: 《I hope the fight is over soon. I have to get the necklace from the princess.》

Luckily for Sun the fight was over shortly after. Sun jumped down and bowed as he landed while the other jester escsped with a cut on his hand.

Sun: Greetings your majesty.  I'm deeply sorry for interrupting but you have something that's mine.

Princess: And what would that be?

Sun: The necklace. To you give it to me or do I have to take it?

Princess: If you want it then you'll have to take it.

The princess pointed her sword at Sun. Sun took his jester staff from the back and activated it's scythe mode.

Sun: It's showtime.

Sun delivered the first strike with a left right slash combo and backfliped to avoid his opponents sword. Then jumped forward, pergorming an vertical downwards strike and a uppercut right after.

Sun: Self thaught and not half bad.

He dodged multiple stabs and slammed his scythe against the sword of the princess and knocked it out of her hands and pointed his scythe at her.

Sun: Oh, it's already over?

The princess grabbed the scythe and ripped it out of Sun's hand.

Sun: How the turns have tabled.

Sun picked the sword up and took a fighting stance while hoping that his opponent didn't know how to use a scythe properly. Sun had an easy time dodgeing the scythe attacks by doing a small step backwards or sidewards. He waited for and opening and took his chance. He dashed forward and locked weapons and jumped back after a few seconds and grabbed a few cards from his belt pouch and threw them at the scythe and deactivated it's scythe mode, grabbed the staff and jumped over the princess while taking the necklace and landed while bowing.

Sun: It's been fun but im afraid that my time is up. Farewell.

He used a few cards as a smoke bomb and disappeared without a trace.

In the nearby village.

Sun was walking through the village until someone approached him. They wore a formal outfit and somehow reminded Sun of the jester from before. He had a rather fresh cut on one hand, not older than an hour.
