Demon's (Gold) Game

The (Game) Start

- "I've a mission for you."

- "Yes, Master. Tell me?" – Internally I screamed in joy of hearing those words from the Eye of Twilight.

After all these years Akali had abandoned the Kinkou in order to act on her vengeance now I'm the direct pupil to Master Shen's teachings. The once slim muscles of my arms and thighs grew as the mastery art of combat with my dual swords. M<y female form become deadlier as my master taught me more, my body growing to the shape I desire and worked for. My tracking skills getting better with the amount of training on the forest I did. However I'm still compared with the now Rogue Assassin, whispers of others acolytes shaping in doubt, questioning I would get an ounce of what Akali was.

After all of it to finally the Master of Kinkou Order knowledge I'm worth enough for solod and important missions.

If Shen knew how much I consider his words or in mimic him in certain aspects, he never showed that. As he always stressed, inflated ego guides to demise, certain death and disturb the balance within. Shivers run down at these thoughts. If he knew that I've a secret and yet strong friendship with Shieda Kayn from the Order of Shadows I would be banished on site.

Since the first time we met and, for any uncommon sense of both parts, we both helped each other, gaining trust, to the point we would share our accomplishments and fears. It would be months later that we discovered for which who we both are and worked for. After that was created three rules:

*Never share information about missions or the inner workings of their respective orders.

*Never tell about anyone about our friendship.

*And if happens a clash between orders we would put friendship aside and fight alongside respective brotherhood, putting it above anything.

The third one was created by Kayn himself, as I could see how blinded by the Master of Shadows ideals the boy has been. I strongly disagreed with that, explaining that could be used our friendship as example for both masters to put aside any rivalry happening and things to be right however the young shadow was adamant about it. I knew not with much detail what happened between but as Akali had said on her drunk self in one night we shared in a pub Kayn have a certain craziness on his frame, this thing that could be seen on his eyes .This craziness in fact wasn't there before, it appeared after the started to use the scythe...

Next day she wouldn't remember such thing so I kept the information locked to myself. I may adore master Shen however I'd to act to my own ideologies in parallel with Kinkou's. The last I'll be is blindingly devoted to things.

I hoped that as Kayn grow older he'll grow a mind for himself.

One day the younger man shared that in the day he became the Master of Shadow himself and I lead over Kinkou, our friendship will be regarded to the light and both orders will make amends, coexisting with each other. Light and Shadow are natural in the land they live, working harmoniously through nature, and also working on their beings. As we both had tested and realized, our combat techniques combined perfectly. With this utopic wish both of our young minds we parted ways, waiting for the better days to come.

- "You mustn't tell anyone about this." – Shen's voice awoke me from my reveries. And by the tone of his voice it's seems that the mission was far important than I thought. – "It's an investigation about the Golden Demon, Khada Jhin. He leaves a path of carnage from where he walks, which are leading to an increase of demons running through the land, so you must search him through his tracks. He likes to make a glamorous appearance, so he doesn't hide himself. If you find him, inform me directly through the eagle spirit stone." – He gives me a collar with a pendant, a purple stone on it. My eyes widen, recognizing the piece how difficult is to create such thing, a very rare item that Shen only gives when it's extremely necessary. – "He's very crafty and it might lead you to far more danger than you can deal with."
