CHAPTER 2 -- MAN OF THE MOUNTAINS

[The king's perspective]

[The king was tired after all the day's work, he finally had sometime to himself]

[A troubled expression on his face]

"So to begin with i have the matter with Shikaku killing Thaddeus, he claimed that he had no kind of relation with Thaddeus whatsoever it doesn't seem like he's lying either"

"Still to kill someone as powerful and renowned as Thaddeus Von Vanserra, Thaddeus was from 'his' bloodline at that it is no ordinary feat to kill an individual like him "

[ A little pause ] 

[ A smirk on his face]

"To surprise One such as I Algernon Van Valois, Shikaku you truly are an exception among exceptions but you're eyes Shikaku why are they so lifeless?"

[A sad expression on his face]

"No, they are beyond that they are more 'empty' they are just like the eyes of "that person" at least i hope you don't end up like 'that person' "

[Algernon falls asleep thinking about Shikaku's case and other matter's]


[Shikaku's perspective]

 My Third Day as an inmate

"It does make things easy if i get special treatment i guess it was the right move to delay my answer about becoming the new general, however i need some information about the situation i am in i should probably ask kenji"  i thought to myself 

I asked kenji more about Thaddeus and Pure Fury he replied

"Thaddeus Von Vanserra, His whole bloodline was legendary but the most remarkable of them all was Thaddeus's Grandfather "Ragnar Von Vanserra" 

once upon a time there was a disaster on this nation because 25 dragons went hostile they went berserk and 25 dragon's could easily destroy a nation. 

There was no man strong enough to fight them all were prepared for the doom about to come  

Everyone thought that  we would have to free "Him" to face them because every allied nation refused to help us when 

The previous king was about to release "Him" Ragnar Von Vanserra said confidently  " I would Kill the dragons " 

The previous king did not have a second option so he agreed the dragons were near the mountains 

Ragnar was sent with 10 mages accompanying him in case  he dies the mage's shall flee from there along with his dead body 

Ragnar reached The mountains after a day's worth of travel, The dragon's as thought were there  

The mages had hidden somewhere where they would not be involved in the fight but would still be able to reach Ragnar's dead body 

Ragnar faced them he was hit with flames enough powerful to make one's skin crack to kill a person but not Ragnar he stood up even after being hit by those flames 

He stood up jumped in the air and grabbed one of the dragons by the head smashed the dragon on the ground 

He pulled his sword "Kiyorakana" out and beheaded  the dragon that he smashed on ground, he dashed towards the dragon's horde standing in the air by  using his wind magic

He using wind magic and his sword Kiyorakana and his sheer will power and strength fought the dragons, he lost his left arm in the battle 

He killed all 25 dragon's in 2 days, without his left arm with broken ribs he had won Ragnar Von Vanserra had finally won 

Then he was renowned as "King Of The Mountains" because the battle took place in the mountains" he said.


"This man Kenji seemed more like a storyteller to me than a guard or a soldier" i thought to myself

"This man Kenji seemed more like a storyteller to me than a guard or a soldier" i thought to myself

[With a surprised and doubtful expression]

"So i am guessing that  Pure Fury is somehow related to this Kiyorakana?"

"Yeah Pure Fury is a demonic replica of Kiyorakana and like the original Pure Fury's power can only be wielded some selected individuals 

Although Thaddeus was considered the only one to wield the demonic version of Kiyorakana there's a high possibility you too are compatible with it somehow 

At first when Thaddeus's bloodborne weapon was the exact replica of Kiyorakana we considered it a disrespect to Ragnar 

But despite looking the same Pure Fury does a lot more destruction while killing or hunting than Kiyorakana 

and not to mention like other bloodborne weapon's corrupts the user's brain although Pure Fury does it more faster

General Thaddeus was said to be in extreme pain because of Pure Fury and this is also the reason why we were not sad but somehow relaxed that he was put out of misery"

"To me Thaddeus seemed more like mad psychotic maniac rather than a Great General from a great family from which a legend like Ragnar Von Vanserra is from 

But if i say it right now it will give rise to conflict between me and Kenji which should be avoided at all cost and it's best if i do not say anything about him for right now" i thought to myself 

"For now i should focus on Pure Fury since i cannot directly ask him something like 

"Hey can you tell me how to use this Pure fury, i can't figure out how to use it please with a cute face"

And let him know i do not know shit about combat and The only reason i beat Thaddeus is because i bit him till death

Although i do think i have an Idea and that is to act like Thaddeus since Thaddeus had it in him i think i have a vague idea of what kind of person Thaddeus was before he became a messed in the head  psychotic guy"

After this thought, I started meditating, focusing and thinking about how good people's scream sound and how i should laugh at them

Day's passed i meditated focused and was able to laugh it off while people screamed, now it was time to test if Pure Fury was appearing or not

And at last my efforts paid off.


I asked Kenji " My dear friend How does one make a bloodborne weapon appear?"
