=Drake Wolford POV=

It all started when I was 6 years old 12 years ago. My father is a lord of a small town in the Luna Empire named Rygon Village. The population is around 5,000 including the elderly and the children. Around 2,500 are capable of fighting. My father is not the strongest but he is still a ranker. It would be embarrassing to say but he’s just a Low Ranker, as far as I can remember he’s ranked #997,331. It may not be high but I am still proud to be his son.

Our lives are good we are not really rich just barely enough, I have 15 siblings, my Father have 3 wives and I am the oldest of them all an intended to inherit his title as the Village Lord.

Everyday Me, my siblings are trained by my Father on how to wield a sword.

I learned how to wield a dagger from my Father’s most trusted men, his right hand man.

Everything is good and lively, peaceful, quiet, all is in harmony until those goddamn bastards raided our village out of nowhere.

They mercilessly killed everyone from children to elderly. Bloods splatter all over the place. The houses are burning. I was running away, trembling, weakened and scared when I suddenly stripped on a dead body of my clansmen and slowly my consciousness faded as I have no more strength to lift and stand on my own feet.

I don’t know how long have I been asleep but when I regained consciousness I hear a man’s voice, he’s clearly scared but tried to stay his voice calm. I can feel in the way he’s speaking that he is trembling, scared and terrified but still try hard to put up a calm and gentle face. This man is the right hand man of my father.

“Kiddo, are you awake now?”.

“Stay still, I will take you to a safe place”

He kept running for minutes. And headed to the nearby forest to outrun the scums that massacred my people. I am still confused and have not gathered my thought at the moment. I know for a fact that my village is gone, but still unrecovered from the shock.

“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” At last I have regained all the wits I’ve lost from the commotion.

“Sir! Where is my father?!!!” I asked, and unconsciously elevated my voice.

“SHHH?!!” The Mister replied to me and covered my mouth to shut.

“Where is my father?!” I asked again and my eyes are starting to feel teary.

He didn’t respond to me, he just looks at my eyes and bow his head a little. Even though I didn’t hear him answer I know at glance what he means. I felt downhearted and depressed, despairing and dejected. I was having my depression moment when some of those scumbags arrived near the place where we are hiding.

“Go there! Let us separate and look for them!”

“Those people cannot escape!”

“We need to kill them!”

We stayed and the little hole of a big tree and waited for them go move out of sight.

“Mister, who are those people and why are they doing this to us?”

“Those assholes are scumbags! They are the Red Blade Crew! They are our ally before and they betrayed us!! They engaged in war with other guild and now that they lack resources they betrayed us and robbed our people! I will kill those scumbags no matter what!” At that moment I realized that no matter whether they are ally or enemy all and everyone is enemy.

“Hey Kid listen. Do not leave this place until I come back”

“Where are you going mister?” I asked as I was terrified being leaved alone in this dark place.

“I will lure and kill those bastards! Just don’t leave here until I come back!” I don’t know why, I trust Father’s right hand man, I know he’s strong but I just know that he will not come back but still I waited for minutes, and hours and days but he did not come back.

The turmoil has subsided, it is quiet now. It’s already been days since the incident. I did not keep my promise and get out of that shitty hellhole that I’ve been for days. I’ve been sneaky and careful not to attract anything, and go to the village, I know that there’s nothing for me to come back but still I want to see. But what I’ve seen is beyond my expectation.

Burned houses, corpses everywhere, woman and little girls are naked and their corpses are rotting everywhere. The smell of the corpses are so strong that I’ve been vomiting all the time. I’m already weak of hunger for being in that shithole without eating anything but what I have witness have made me even more weaker.

That day I swear revenge.

“I Drake Wolford, solemnly swear in the name of the Wolford Family and Rygon Village that not until I’ve accomplished my revenge will not die and bow before others! I fucking swear and I will be fucking kill those fucking bastards!”

After the day of my oath I traveled to the many places and trained and continue my investigation and follow those Red Blade Crew bastards until I arrive to where I am today.

“So that’s what happened huh?” Zion being melodramatic of Drake’s story.

“I didn’t realize this kid who is just older to me by one year have gone through all of those harsh things one could imagine, while me? What the fuck am I doing all these years? Playing the so called Royal Outcast shits? Man I really need to change and be a proper citizen unless I want my whole family be slaughtered”

“Hey I just don’t understand. Your father is a ranker but how did he die with the captain, he’s not even a ranker. Not worthy to mention.”

“Not that captain, the former captain and the founder of the Red Blade Crew. He’s also a ranker slightly lower than my father, but they have many men and have lots of Rankers in his crew who’s almost the same rank as him, while our petty village only have 2”

“So that’s why. Hey how about this, I will help you with your revenge, in exchange let’s be friend!” Zion said with a big smile on his face.

“No thanks! I don’t need a help from someone who still have milk on their face!”

*Boooooooommmmm

*Crassshhhhh

*kshksh

*sadjabsd asda

*adkahndasbdhb

“The fuck did he just say? God that hurts so much” Zion felt like his been hit with an anvil.

“Hey buddy listen here, I know you have some shitty trust issues but I am a fucking legit Friendster you know. It’s still better to gain one more ally that one more enemy. You won’t survive being alone you know. You might be alive for now but who knows what will happen next.”

“Are you threatening me!!!!”

“Seriously? Is this kid a retard or what? You really have stonedead brain you know!” Zion whispers.

“Yeah whatever! So you wanna be friends or what?”

“I won’t be friends with you but I will take your proposal to help me just this time”

“This guy really wanna rake just the benefit without work huh! Naahhh whatever!”

“So what’s you plan?” Drake asked.

“Naaahhhh no plan at all! Too much hastle I’m kinda lazy you know!”

Drake felt little bit pissed.

“Seriously? Just what kind of guy did I entangled myself with? He offers help so I though he has a plan or something, but nothing? Really? Fuck this guy!”

Zion and Drake shake hands as a sign of their collaboration for Drake’s revenge.

“Everyone! We will continue our mission and kill the Red Scar Bear. Be on guard this is not something you wanna laze around at your level!” Nagoya instructed the crew.

“Naaa fuck your nanny, he just keeps repeating this “Be on guard statement” guard your ass old man! I will kill you later! HAHAHA!”

“!!!!!!!!!!”

“What was that? Did my senses joke with me? For a second there, I felt a killing intent. Am I mistaken I can’t see clearly because it’s dark. Might as well be on guard”

ROOOOOAAAAARRR!!!

“Mages light the whole area! We can’t see clearly in this dark!”

The mages lit the area and while the vanguards defend and the warrior deals damage to the bear some mages suppress the bear by some stunning magic and guarding the healer.

“The injured retreat to the back! Healers tend to the wounded!! Vanguards and Mages continue to suppress the bear! Damage dealers focus on its neck and other weak points!”

While they are busy dealing with the bear here I am chilling, eating some snack and some juice. I’m a gangsta shit man. I’m the boss here.

“These men are not bad at all, their captain’s command is on point. Well his not a captain for nothing” Zion complimenting everyone while he himself is just chilling like a king he is.

“Oi? When will we strike?”

“Just wait my friend, the time’s still ripe”

“Who’s your friend!”

“Seriously, I wanna kill this kid, acting high and mighty!” Drake being seriously pissed with Zion.

=Nagoya Sato POV=

“Fuck this bear! It’s so hard to deal with! I’m losing stamina! I can’t prolong this battle!”

“MAGES! Give your best shot! Kill this fucking bear!”

Thunder Magic – Bolt Thrust

Fire Magic – Flame Ball

Thunder Magic – Electrocute

Dark Magic – Dark Hound

After a series of attack, the surrounding has been enveloped by fog.

“What the?! This bear is still alive?!”

“Hey Mr. Teddy Bear! You still alive huh? Are you on your last legs?”

“What’s your last wish?”

ROOOOAAAARRRRR!!

Nagoya smirked and deal the last blow to the Red Scar Bear.

=Dark Samurai – Ghost Thousand Slash=

Nagoya unleashed a thousand slash engulfed with Dark energy that finish the bear.

“I finish the bear, finally mission accomplished!”

After I kill the bear I really am exhausted I can barely lift my sword and I could barely stand but still I am happy with this achievement. Our crew will be promoted. The once domineering Red Blade Crew has been reduced to this state. We once have over a thousand men under the same banner but now we are a mere 41 people. A pity really.

After slaying the bear I have gone and picked it Beast Core, it could be sold to a high price and we can have a lavish life for a while.

“Hey old man, are you done celebrating your last victory?” Zion said.

“What the fuck are these two twerps doing?.
