Chapter 5 - "True Rage"
Two years passed since my first encounter with Mysty, I'm now Twelve years old and still in training to be able to wield her, I can say that I'm really starting to show goods results, as even my father who is one of the strongest in the kingdom have a hard time when sparring with me. Yeah it seem that the story my father told me about defeating a small army by himself, was not a lie... Seriously is he even human? Not that I can talk since I'm almost even with him in strength and skill recently.
Since the day I ran away from the manor, I go there to visit Mysty when taking a rest from my intense training once a month, as to not leave her alone to much, that what I like to say but in truth, I just wanted to see her... A man who fallen in love is quite a sad and predictable creature...
From what I learned from my visit, she actually never faked her personality when I encountered her the first time, she seem to be quite the cry baby and honest young lady, and that would be perfect if not for her impulse that want to kill and 'devour' everything... Guess we are feathers of the same bird huh? It's actually quite fun to talk with her and learn old legend of this world from her. But the one who was the most interesting to hear was the legend about the birth of the cursed blades.
Long ago,the god of greed Enoth ,took hostage a precious treasure of the blade goddess, and blackmailed her to smiths blades strong enough to make him the strongest god. Ymylfana, then walked the earth in search of monsters strong enough to become the body of the blades, she then found and slayed five legendary monsters who was at the time wreaking chaos to the world. Those monster were: 'the devourer', 'the twin headed calamity', 'the blind slasher', 'the doom' and 'the light eater'.
Using the corpse of those five monstrosity Ymylfana forged five blades and gave them to Enoth in exchange of her treasure, but the life that was given to the blades by Ymylfana became cursed by their monstrous origins, and killed the god of greed leaving nothing of him. And so, the god of greed was killed by is one greed. Or so the story say, but since this story was recounted by one of those said blades I guess it hold at least some truth. And from those monsters names it's not hard to guess who was the one who gave birth to Mysty...
"Phew..." Putting down the giant boulder I was holding above my head I heaved a sigh.
"Guess that's enough for today training, I should go back to the mansion before nightfall."
I was at my training ground who was at the feet of a giant mountain at a hour of running distance from the mansion. You could see around me the signs of my training here, like the numerous giants boulders I use to build up my strength, or the mountain wall I used as a training dummy that was scarred with numerous deep cuts. I train here with my father most of the time here, but my father is actually out of the mansion once again, but this time it's quite the serious matter since he leaved to attend the King funeral, who died of 'sickness'.
That sound like bullshit to me and my father think the same but in this world there no forensic. It wouldn't be a surprise if the first prince who had bad blood with his father killed him, before the second prince whom had a better relationship with his father was given the throne by him. Well it's not like it concern me since I didn't knew the king and want nothing to do with the political struggle of the kingdom.
After putting back my chainmail, I started to ran back in the direction of the mansion through the forest.
As I was running for a long time while thinking about what kind of training I should do tomorrow I heard a lot of noises coming from afar.
"Mmm? What is that?"
In the now darkening sky I could see a red light coming from the direction of the mansion.
"It can't be!"
Having a bad feeling I started to ran at my full speed breaking everything on my path that would slow me. After running at full speed for 5 minutes I finally arrived at the mansion.
"What the fuck is happening here?!"
The mansion was in flames, I started to look around to find a clue to explain what was happening, and then seen in the distance Allina who was fighting against a group of knights, and near the fighting, on the floor rested the bloody corpse of my grandfather.
What the hell is this?! How did it come to this?! My mind was a mess and couldn't seem to work, should I be angry? Should I be sad? I don't have time to think I need to help Allina!
Finally coming to a decision I rushed at the knights at an impressive speed while unsheathing my saber.
"What the?!" (Randolf the third of the name, soon to be married to his childhood friend.)
Seeing a shadow only leaving a blur running at them, the knights started to face me, Allina who had taken a hit was falling to the floor. Rage starting to rise in me more and more as I became a whirlwind and started to dismember all the knights that entered my sight. Body parts started to fly in every way, heads, hands, feet, legs, whole upper body, it was pure chaos, and soon the knights unit who didn't even knew what attacked them became a pile of dismembered corpses, and I was now red, covered in the the blood of my victims. I started feeling elated at my first humans killing since my rebirth, live in peace? Not killing? Yeah, right! Who care when it feel this good! But I didn't have time to enjoy this feeling and rushed to Allina.
She had a stab wound at her stomach, seeing that I knew it was too late, nobody in my family can use healing spell and I won't be able to heal that even if I were to suture it...
Seeing that my face started to lose it's color since there nothing I could do, Allina who now had a hard time breathing, gently stroke my cheek with her hand and started to cry.
" I'm so syorry nyoung myaster... They suddenly came and tried to take the Nyoung Misstress and nyour mother... *Sob* I'm so syorry! I Nyasn't Strong enyough to protect them..."
"Wait! Where are mother and Eva?!" Hearing what she just said I started to fear the worst.
"They were kidnyaped... I'm so Syorry......" As she said that Allina slowly started to lose the light in her eyes, and finally, died...
*KKrrrrr* Rage was rising more and more in me and I started to grind my teeth, first my grandpa then Allina, and now they kidnapped my precious little sister and mother?!
While I was starting to wonder what I should do, another unit of knights started to approach leaded by a young balded man who was wearing a light armor but no weapon.
"Well, well, would you look at that. We finally found the little boy, and what a mess he made of my second unit..." (Baldy) (Author note: The author find it necessary to say that he have nothing against bald man, since he himself is one...)
Is he the one who command those knights? I guess I now know who I should torture to obtain answers, without any warning I leaped at him trying to stun him with the back of my blade, but unlike my expectation the bald man easily deflected my attack with the back of his hand while smiling.
"Well will you look at that! The little guy is trying to go easy on me!" (Bald man)
Hearing that the knights behind him started to laugh, I was quite shocked, even my father won't be able to stop my blade like that, and it's seem he did it like he was playing around. Is this a joke?! Did I train so much that I spit blood to be ridiculed by the like of him?!
"Calm down buddy! I was scared for a moment that you had a cursed blade when looking at the mess you made of my knights, but it was just a little toy huh? Don't you even know that the blade champion is nothing without a cursed blade? Still I have thing to say as my duty, so stay put and listen to me!" (Bald man)
*KKrrrr* Are you kidding me?! Nothing without a cursed blade?! A toy?!
"My name is Duran Enylio, champion of the god of the fist, by order of the new king his majesty Henry the fourth, the baron Orios Fenrik was executed for plotting the death of the previous king, and his family is to become slave in service of the royal family in punishment." (Duran)
"Wha... Are you kidding me?!" What the hell?! So he pushed all responsibility about his father death on mine, and wanting the power of two champions as his pawn now he attack his family?!
*KKKKKRRRRrrrrrr* "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!!!" My voice was so loud a window of the mansion that was still intact, broke and a lot of knights started to block their ears so they don't burst. Guess I did inherit that skill from my father...
"Wow, there! Your one hell of a loud little fucker, well, that how it is, sorry I have nothing against you but you will have to follow me!" (Duran)
"I kill you... I KILL ALL OF YOU AND DESTROY THIS KINGDOM! I WILL TORTURE THIS FUCKER OF A KING AND DISMEMBER EVERY PERSON HE HOLD DEAR IN FRONT OF HIM!!!" (Shun)
This time I was loud enough to make a make the trees near use tremble and even Duran was now putting his hands on his ears. Seeing an opening... I ran away... To her, to obtain the power to kill this bastard and save those dear to me that I can still help. Blood will flow! Piles of corpses gonna flood the street! My rage won't be able to settle down until I have killed any fucking bastard who was involved in this farce!
"What the?! Wait are you kidding me?! You're running away?!" (Duran)
It seem that this bastard didn't expect this, and started to ran after me, but even if it seem I can't win against him right now, I clearly can run with much more speed than him, at the speed I am going even a horse can't hold a candle to me. But don't worry bald bastard I will come to you after reclaiming what is mine!
"Goddammit what with this speed?! Wait you little bitch!" (Duran)
His voice was becoming weaker and weaker as the distance between us grew.
Never turning around, I ran and ran without a rest and it only took me thirty minute to be in front the manor, without stopping to open the fence door or the front door I rushed through them breaking them apart as they blocked my path.
"Oh?! Shun?" (Mysty)
Mysty tried to talk to me but I ignored her and rushed directly to the library on the second floor, not even taking the time to open this joke of a secret passage I ran straight at it making a hole in the bookshelf and thin wall who hidden the stair, jumping from stair to stair I finally was upon the cursed blade and touched it without a once of hesitation.
My mind gone blank for a second and when I reopened my eyes I was in a place who made me remember something I would rather forget. I was nude and floating in the air, the only difference compared to when I died was that this space was blank. Suddenly my body slowly descended and my feet touched what looked like an invisible floor, well since every things here is white here and there no shadow I don't have anything to judge distance, so even if a wall was right in front of me I wouldn't be able to see it...
"It seem you found an enemy you want to kill from the hatred that come from you! I waited so long for this day!" (???)
As I was wondering if I wasn't actually dead, a giant monster started to appear out of nowhere while talking in a girlish voice, giant didn't even start to describe it, the sky building tall snake who's body was covered in red metal scale looked down at me forming a smirk from his really long mouth who made a good quart of her body.
"Hideous huh? It's the monster I was born from, 'the devourer', this is the form the curse gave upon my soul. But enough talk let's start the feast! I Mystyval the devourer, shall eat you and become one with your soul!" (Mysty)
Finishing her line Mysty lung at me in an unbelievable speed and bite at my body, killing me...
It was too fast for even me, and I was unable to do anything but just stand like a scarecrow and get eaten. As I thought it was the end, my mind gone blank, and a second later I reappeared a little distance away from Mysty, feeling weaker, but in one piece.
"What the?!" (Shun)
"Humpf! It seem once wasn't enough... Stop resisting husband and let your soul become a part of me!" (Mysty)
I see! This battle isn't a physical one! Like the description said on my birthcard I need to use the power of my soul! It's a mental battle! Well now that mean that all my training was useless... But well I do need a lot of strength now so it wasn't in vain, also at the time if I did touch the blade since I lacked willpower I would have got killed easily.
"Come at me!" (Shun) Now that I knew it wasn't a battle of pure strength, but will, I provoked her to attack me.
Surprised, the snake eyes widened, before going straight at me while opening her giant mouth showing vicious fangs the size of a man.
"AH!" (Shun)
As she was about to bite me once again, I grabbed her two lower fangs and stopped her in her rush. But when my hands entered in contact with the monster a painful hunger started to came from my stomach, but I was able to ignore it with willpower.
"WHAT?!" (Mysty)
"Like I thought, here strength isn't measured by body capability but strong emotion!" (Shun)
"Even if that's the case how are you even able to stand against my curse ill will and hunger?!" (Mysty)
"Don't make me laugh! Your curse is a joke compared to the bloodlust I felt in my previous life!" (Shun)
Showing I wasn't all talk I started to emanate a crazy amount of bloodlust, it was enough to even taint the pure blank room who now started to take a grey color, my strength grew more and more and I finally brook the two fangs I was griping and started to use them as weapon to stab the snake, again and again I stabbed while howling like a madman, when I finally stopped, what was the head of a giant snake was now a huge mass of meat.
"Ah... Ah... Ah..."
As I was regaining my breath, because of the mental strain, emanating such an amount of bloodlust gave me.
The corpse of the monster started to glow a little, tiny particles of light started to quit her body and gather in one big sphere above me, when the corpse finished disappearing and the light was now one, the sphere suddenly changed form to one of a nude young girl. who then fallen into my arms.
"That was incredible! I didn't know an human could have such a powerful soul! It's no wonder mother choose you! You even freed me of the cursed form that plagued my soul!"
Mytsy was talking at machine gun rate in an excited way while cuddling me. And I quite enjoyed the sensation of her direct skin on mine.
"Cursed form? Do you mean you were only able to take a human a form while being a projection? And wait now that I think about it didn't you said your name was actually Mystyval?" (Shun)
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
"Yup! It's not like I was able to transform in a monster, but I was unable to transform in my human form while I was plagued, but I still hold my inborn curse of hunger. Well it's not like it's all bad since every curse are more of double edged blade. As for my name I hate it since it sound manly so I only gave you my nickname..." (Mysty)
"Uh? A ok... But wait, there also a use to your curse?" (Shun)
"Of course! But sadly it seem like our intimate time will have to stop here since rude fellow are coming to us, let's kill those bastards! My husband and master!"
She suddenly kissed me with a deep kiss, well I didn't expect my first kiss to be in my soul form... But I enjoyed it non less... Still kissing, my mind suddenly goes blank once again.
And my consciousness returned to my body, the hand that touched the blade before, now hold her by the handle. It was a marvelous feeling, it was like I found a missing piece of myself, ignoring the hunger the curse was making me feel when wielding her...
"He's here!" (Random Knight N°3)
hearing a knight I turned around and faced him, but when he saw the blade I was holding his face started to turn blue from fear, as the dark aura that was coming from it made it clear it was a cursed blade. Wanting to test my new weapon I leaped at the man and slashed at him.
Mysty sensing my will, the small fangs who was along the blade of the sword started to move in chainsaw like motion making a high pitched noise as it was cutting air.
*VVVVVVVVvvvvvvvvvvVVVVvvvVVVV*
What the hell?! I had my doubt but she really was a chainsaw?! But what surprised me the most was when the chainsaw blade came in contact with the knight body, the blade wasn't to cut, but to rip, as the blade was advancing in the poor man body, every fangs gripped a part of his armor and then body and ripped them apart, chipped pieces of meats were flying everywhere and soon a big part of the knight who touched the blade was missing, his upper body flying in the air.
It was like a giant monster just took a bite at his body, it was really a gruesome sight, even more for me who seen the scene in slow motion since my body capability and senses where higher as my unique quirk made me stronger when holding a cursed blade from whom I gained the true power by freeing their soul from their cursed form.
"Holy cow! You are one hell of a nasty sword!" (Shun)
[Hey! That not a nice thing to say to your lover!] (Mysty)
Oh... It seem she can talk directly to my mind my when I hold her, but since when are we lover? Well since it's not like I'm against that I didn't said anything...
"Well I'm reeaallyy impatient to make baldy taste this!"
Because the situation came back to me after obtaining Mytsy, my hate was slowly came back.
"Ok it's time to feed you Mytsy!" (Shun)
[Yay!!!]
While I was repainting the room of the blood and gore of the knight it seem his fellow knights heard his warning and the dying scream who followed as was being ripped apart, and came to rush from where the voice was coming from. Soon a lot of them showed up, but as the ones in front who got a direct view of their comrade corpse got sick, and threw up the content of their stomach, while the one in the back were screaming in fear and soon started to ran away, but I had no intent of leaving anyone alive, I started to charge at the panicked knights without minding the vomit, gore and blood I was stepping on and ripped every enemy one by one, soon silence took place of the screams and the room now looked like the inside of a giant living creature as every part of the walls where covered in gore and blood.
"Pff... AHAHAHAHAH!!!" (Shun)
[Hihihihihihi!] (Mytsy)
For an unknown reason I started to laugh hysterically, Mysty followed suit and started to giggle in a girlish way... But there was something that really disturbed me at the time, the body parts that where lying everywhere on the floor, whetted the appetite of my ever painful hunger. Ignoring that sickening thought I exited the room, took the stair and arrived to the library, seeing as nobody was waiting for me here, I wondered where baldy was, so I looked trough the window of the library who given a direct view of the front garden, and there, behind where was standing the fence door before I broke it, was waiting baldy and some other knights, but when our eyes meet, is eyes widened in surprise for seeing me who was smiling back at him, blood still dripping from my hair.
Unable to contain my wrath anymore I jumped through the glass of the window with such strength that when my feet finally came in contact with the floor I was at a arm distance of him.
"To arms!" The knight who where waiting with him charged at me will raising their swords to strike me, I waited for the time they all came close enough of me, and slashed them in a full circle around me.
*VVVVvvvRRRRrRRRrRR* (Sound of the chainsaw who suddenly came in contact with something... Nasty huh?)
Body parts started to flew in the sky as I ripped right through the peoples around, everyone but the baldy who blocked the attack with his naked arms sending him flying.
"What the hell?! How did he block like that?!" (Shun)
[He must be the champion of the god of the fist, his blessing gave him indestructible arms.]
I see that not everyone have such a messed up blessing as me, now that I think about it my sister never told me what quirk gave her blessing.
"Well, damn! It's look like you did have a cursed blade... Where you hiding it here?" (Duran)
"I don't have any obligation to respond, to a soon to be dead, man!" (Shun)
Seeing as I was running at him Duran took a stance who looked like a muay-thaï one, when in range I attacked him with Mysty but once he again blocked hit and countered with a stabbing hand at my neck, that I evade in a reflex but his hand carved a part of my cheek as I was dodging. Goddammit it fucking hurt! I wasn't expecting this, his fingers are freakin' sharp! Blood soon started to run across my opened cheek but I didn't mind it and continued to slash at him.
"Dieeeee!" (Shun) I screamed a war cry while constantly slashing at him.
But the bastard blocked and countered every attacks, after a full minute of a intense exchange, my body was full of cuts and and a lot of parts of my body had the skin carved out from it. But my struggle wasn't in vain as he was starting to get our of breath it seem like baldy don't have as much training as me.
"Tch!... You don't give me any choice kid!" (Duran)
Baldy suddenly planted the point of his foot in the soil and threw dirt at me, the dirt landing in my open wounds made me grit my teeth from pains and made me lose focus for an instant, but it was enough for the baldy who has seen an opening and slashed at my stomach with a knife hand.
"AAaarrgg... You fucking bastard!"
I was now in deep shit, that slash hurt me pretty bad and I started to throw up blood.
[It's seem there no choice anymore! Master eat the meat of own of the dead men!]
"What?! Are you kidding me?!" (Shun)
"What? Are you starting to go crazy from the pain?" (Duran)
[Please believe in me master! I don't want you to die!]
"Tch! Fuck this, at this rate I'm screwed anyway!"
I jumped back with a roll and snatched a hand who was resting on the floor. Shit am I really going to do this?!
"What are you... ?!" (Duran)
*Crunch* Whit a nasty sound when I crunched the bones with my teeth, I bitten the hand with all my strength and swallowed a whole part of it with a gulp. Goddammit, it even tasted good...
*Urgh!...* Soon, pain was coursing through my whole body and I felt a numbing sensation from all my injuries. They were starting to heals at an incredible speed before my very eyes and after five second no wounds were still on my body.
"Oh! So that's the use of the curse!"
Anyway you look at it that's a cheat! If not for the cannibalism thing...
[Yes it let you consume everything and heal your body. It can work with anything organic but the effect really show when eating human meat...]
Well even if that was really disgusting it really saved me!
"What the hell was that?! You fucking monster!"
This time clearly disturbed, the baldy was the one on the offence, but I was waiting for this, not only he was low on stamina, I still had a lot of it and my body was fully healed! He tried to stab at my chest but seeing it coming from a mile away I crouched myself while slashing at is legs and ripped them.
"AAAAAAAaaaAAaaahhhhhhh!!!"
Now legless after the knees, Duran was screaming in pain while trying to stop blood with his hands. Hands that was too dangerous to leave alone so I cut his two arms at the shoulder making him a human trunk with knees.
"AAaahhhhh *Sob* why are you doing this to a dying man!"
"Shut up! Just tell me where to find my little sister and mother?!"
"At the castle! The king want them for himself and intent to make a slave pact with them! Please I answered your question! I know you won't spare me but at least give me a painless death!"
The one who was just an instant ago a proud warrior, was now looking painfully pitiful as he was pleading me while crying. But...
"... NO!" (Shun)
"AAAAAAAAaaahhhhhh!!!!" (Duran)
I ripped him apart little by little leaving him alive as long as possible and died soon from shock and blood loss... What did that bastard thought?!
"NOBODY MESS WITH ME AND MY FAMILY! NOBODY!" (Shun)
I screamed to the heaven, as if trying to warn the gods themselves. But as that now, I wasn't in direct danger anymore, I slowly started to bawl like a child ,finally able to mourn the ones who were stolen from me, I cried for the first time in my life since my birth...
Seeing my pain Mysty turned into her human form, who was wearing the same dress as she was wearing as a projection, and took me in her arms hugging me close to her chest, while gently stroking my head. Pops, Gramps, Allina... I will save mother and Eva, and most of all I'm gonna murder the son of a bitch who did this to our family!
"*Sigh* Thanks Mysty, that must have quite pitiful to watch... But I don't have time to cry here I need to rescue the rest of my family as soon as I can!" (Shun)
"No it wasn't pitiful! I actually feel relieved from seeing that, you do have normal human emotion, as for your family there something strange in what he said." (Mysty)
"Uh? What?" (Shun)
"He said that the king wanted to make a slave pact with them, but from what you told me your little sister is also a champion isn't she?" (Mysty)
"Yes she is, but what about it? (Shun)
"Then it's impossible, my guess is that, that fool didn't know that, but champions can't have a slave pact put on them, I mean, do you really thing gods would let their precious champion get enslaved? They can't directly interact with them but they can at least give a security against slave pact in their blessing." (Mysty)
"I see... Now that you say it, it's kinda obvious... But my mother isn't a champion and can be used as a hostage against my sister... But then again if I rush there right now i'm just going to get killed..." (Shun)
"Uh? I didn't expect you to say that! You just slayed a champion what do you have to fear?!" (Mysty)
"It's exactly because such a strong guy was just the commander of a small troops that I think I don't stand a chance right now... If such a guy was just a commander of a small platoons what strength will have one who command a army?" (Shun)
"Oh... It's true... It seem your enemy have quite the strong pawn..." (Mysty)
"Shit I really don't any choice but to wait for me to grow stronger?... Mysty do you know where are the other blades?" (Shun)
Hearing my question, Mysty closed her eyes and started make a strange sound.
"MMmmmmumumumumu... Got it! I found three of them!" (Mysty)
Are you supposed to be a g.p.s or something?...
"The closer one is south of here and from her wavelength it must be Setsuna 'The blind slasher', I don't know who are the other two but one is far to the east and the other even farther to the north-west, the last one must have an impressive seal as I can't seem to get a hold of her." (Mysty)
I started to pat her pretty head for doing a good job, and made a mental map in my mind, the capital of the kingdom is north of this continent, and I'm right now pretty close of it, going south would mean to go away from the capital, as for the the other two... Shit if they are far away in those direction it can only mean they are in a different continent...
What should I do dammit! If I go straight to the capital I just go there to get killed, but if I take the time to go the other way to gain a new cursed blade, I'm not even sure I will be strong enough to go after that bastard king and don't know what would happen to my family meanwhile! It's a dead end! What should I... Wait! Isn't my father best friend, ruling a land south of here and were in the second prince faction like my father?! If I can go to him and explain the situation to him, maybe he would land me his help!
"Mysty, is Setsuna really far to the south from here?" (Shun)
"Mmm? No she is quite close, I'm actually quite surprised she was always so close of me all this time." (Mysty)
Good that mean she must be in between here and uncle Arllan land. It really make me sad to not going to the rescue of my family immediately but I don't have any choice, guess my next move is decided...
"Ok... Here the plan Mysty, we're going south of here to make Setsuna mine, and then go even more to the south to ask my father best friend his assistance in rescuing my family and killing this bastard of Henry!" (Shun)
"Mumumumu... Am I not enough for you?" Asked Mytsy to me with puppy eyes and puffed cheeks.
"... No, your not... I'm not strong enough with only you." (Shun)
"Urg.." Clearly, wasn't excepting me to tell her that out front she really looked dejected, feeling a little guilty from seeing that I showed her a hand while looking bashful, understanding what I meant she tightly gripped it with a big smile on her face, and so we started walking in the direction of the closest village while holding hands and being close to each other...

Next chapter is in the point of view of Eva! Stay tuned!
(Also since i think a lot of people will start to get scared of the possibility of 'rape' content after reading this chapter, there none! As i personally can't handle story with it and find it much more difficult to read than even a story who involve torture... And cruelty against penguin, yes even that! I will not include 'rape' in my story.)
