It's A Promise (Genshin Impact Lumine x Amber)

Chapter 13 - Wild West Edo Japan

Asaki's POV

The year is 1615

I'm around eighteen years old. Recently Haruka turned seventeen and it was a nice party. We were all there..

Although after the party I spent the night with my lover, Muraki. He joined us about.. five years ago.

We've been together for three years and.. recently he asked if I wanted to marry him. I said yes, of course. Things we going Well.. so well..

Anri was about to open her own school.

Yuutsu is the class prodigy and she was about to become the best female samurai.

Ryuji was more of a ronin, but he was about to get married.

Fina was going to become the best archer

Makoto was going to run an orphanage and a school for young children.

Me and.. Muraki were about to get married..

It all went down hill when.. our school burned down. With it.. Haruka died in the process.. she was the closest of being a daughter Shiyou ever wanted.

Then.. the rest started dying. All of us- including Shiyou.. was charged with traitorous intent, treason, and plotting to kill the Shogun.

Although all of these are lies.. anyways what came to this?

Here's a brief history.. Shiyou opened a school for poor kids and mainly all of us are orphans. Not many rich families and kids liked us, but we were around. We were dominating though.

We made the rich families look bad and they felt humiliated. So they decided to burn our school and.. Haruka died because of that. Shiyou was devastated and I never seen her so broken..

Then we were plotted against with these allegations. Many people hunted us down and one by own.. Shiyou watched and knew that her students.. her beloved students are also dying. Makoto met the worse fate.. and that was the breaking point as she was the last student to die.

Makoto died from child birth.. and she never had any love interest in anyone.. so you can imagine how angry and horrible Shiyou felt. Me and Muraki were the only two students to survive.

"It seems.." Shiyou looked at the both of us with a smile. "This is the end."

We've been on the run for so long.. we only made it this far because everyone gave their life up for us.. and Shiyou time after time again.. is falling. Our teacher.. our mother who we once knew and loved..

She's entirely a different person now..

I can hear them.. they really want us dead huh.. we lost so much.. and yet it wasn't enough for them.

"I'm sorry you two.. truly.. I am.." Shiyou bites her finger and draws on the floor with her blood. "Despair.. anger.. revenge.. I felt them all.. and I want it." Shiyou's eye loses humanity.

She looks at the both of us with a very creepy smile on her face. Muraki bashes his head against her, but Shiyou pushes my partner away.

She throws a knife at my stomach and stabs Muraki's stomach as well.

Then we felt it.. this sudden surge of.. power. The both of us.. I'm starting to lose myself.. my own identity.. my feelings..

Shiyou has turned her last two surviving students into weapons of war. Cursing them in a way.

She would name the katana, Mukuro and the scabbard, Shoumetsu.

Mukuro is a sword that will always cut twice, but her most unique feature is self regeneration. As long as her blade taste blood- she can heal the wielder's wounds, cuts, metal damage, broken bones- anything.

Also she can't cure anything, but as long as Mukuro continues to taste blood.. she can heal the wielder and put an illness at the smallest level of threat.

Shoumetsu is the scabbard that can destroy anything. Shattering the most well crafted katana to hundreds of pieces.

Shoumetsu cracks bone as if a child took a bite out of a small grape. His unique feature is.. maybe for another story.

These two weapons alone. Shiyou killed samurais. Then after.. rich people. Then.. bounty hunters and soldiers who chased them and kill her students. Then.. the entire Bafuku and finally.. the shogun.

After the shogun's death- Shiyou remained and killed any political powers to take control of japan. It was chaos.

People would turn to a life of crime and soon.. it'll become the Wild West equivalents, but all of Japan rather than just.. west.

1615 marks the year of the fall of Japan.

1812..

A 23 year old outlaw named Reddokorudo Saiken would be the next wielder for Mukuro and Shoumetsu.

For two hundred years.. they remained as weapons and slaves. They would turn human, but were treated poorly.

Imagine for 200 years.. serving multiple evil men who turned to a life full of crime. Killing many innocent people for their goods.. taking women and children as slaves.

Asaski who is now known as Mukuro and Muraki who is now known as Shoumetsu.. they have seen it all and they feel guilty about it.

Mukuro would soon forget her real name and she would lose her emotions. Mukuro shows no more expressions.

Anger, joy, sadness- Mukuro will always give a blank stare. Shoumetsu is the only one who remembers everything and for two hundred years he has stood by his lover's side.

Then these two meet Saiken in 1812- two hundred years later. He wasn't the type of man they were expecting.

Saiken would show love and use these weapons for the greater good. Killing bigger outlaws and destroying ruthless gangs while still being an outlaw himself.

Saiken steals from the corrupt rich and helps himself, but sometimes also helping the poor too. His bounty would rise and everyone would fear Saiken as they know that he is the new wielder of Mukuro and Shoumetsu.

About those cursed names- Saiken would name Mukuro, Yeon and Shoumetsu, Hee.

Adding the two together is Yeonhee.

He loved the two and gave them new names. For two hundred years.. being used for evil and watching people suffer.

They were finally able to smile and love Saiken.

1840's would be the fall of outlaws and Japan would slowly be restored. How? Hmm.. read the story!!! uwu
