Chapter three: Soul weapon

Chapter three: Soul weapon

Soul weapons are not usually used unless someone has a strong soul. Soul weapons are used for clashes of will between two people when only in their soul forms. It is not usually for someone to use their soul weapon over a created weapon, but soul weapon is usually at a disadvantage when it comes to physicals fights. The common practice is to find a weapon that is best suited to you and fuse it with one’s soul weapon. It is said that if the fuse is done just right it will create the perfect weapon for that person, but this is rare. Ranking for soul weapons are: Common, uncommon, Rare, unique, epic, legendary, mystical, divine/demonic, primal, Origin. These can be divided further in to low, mid, high tiers. Furthermore, adjective such as Holy demonic can change the were a weapon ranks.

Soul weapon will grow with their user and can be evolved if the right conditions are meet. Soul weapon will only ever be wielded by one person, but if the weapon is similar to a past weapon in will take on that weapon shapes and powers but will be wholly unique to that person unless that person is a reincarnation. In that case the user will have two soul weapons

After Tyson spoke every single noble turned to the duke who sighed at all the attention. He had no choice but halt the party and move immediately to the weapon manifestation. “Head of the young nobles who were just named, step forward with the newly cemented nobles.” the heads of each of the heads of their family appeared and they were about to begin.

“Artur Avalon bring forward Anthony Avalon.” a man clearly Anthony’s father walked forward Anthony a half pace behind him.

The duke took out an orb and handed to Artur who poured his energy into it. The shined brightly, then stopped. Artur handed the orb to Anthony. Anthony took the orb, then it shattered. The pieces shot into him. After a few seconds Anthony felt a pain in chest he looks down to see something jetting out of chest he grabbed it and yanked it out.

A staff the seemed to be made of crystalwood was in his hand. The staff shined like a deep green crystal with silver trimming. There seemed to be dragons carved on to it.

Everyone gasped at the sight of the staff even Anthony's father.

“The staff of Pendragon” Artur he shouted then he started laughing loudly. “It seems my son is destining for great things” to the applauses of everyone.

Anthony as if he was possessed took the staff and banged the bottom on the ground a bright light shone from it when it dimmed words could be seen in the air

If everyone was surprised at his staff, they were even more shocked at what they show now.

“TRUE BLESSING!” Artur shouted causing everyone go completely silent.

True blessings are similar to blessings in which they can be give, but true blessing are direct inscriptions on to the soul and cannot be removed. To give someone a true blessing one must create it out of their own power then remove it from the energy and tie to the soul of the one they wish to give the blessing.

Only someone on part with a god could give out true blessings and this is never done lightly. Anyone one who has a true blessing will become a peerless genius. And could become a powerhouse, an unleash one as they don’t have in obligations to any higher power.

This is showed Anthony soul sheet as someone who has early advance knowledge on magic. Something that would be impossible for age regardless of his family’s power.

Anthony took his staff and moved to the side with his father a big smile on his face.

The duke knowing that if didn’t calm the crowd it would only get worse. Thus, he held up his hand demanding silence. “I understand that this is an important moment, but that doesn’t mean that we should forget ourselves. We need to continue the ceremony.

“Next Monica Castello bright Stella Castello.” Monica was slightly upset having to bring up her daughter right after Anthony outcome, but it wasn’t anything that could be done. Stella on the other hand was happy not to so much attention on her as everyone was still focus on Anthony. Monica Castello was the spitting image of her daughter, but there was a strong yet seductive allure to her movements.

She came forward and preformed the same process as Artur did for his child. What happen next drew everyone’s attention.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

When the shard of the orb flew into Stella the room began to shake vigorously making some panic, but it soon as it came it left. A pleasant filling washed over everyone. A small greenish jewel rose from the ground and began to pulse gently which seemed to sooth everyone.

The duke whispered clearly in awe “The heart of Gaia.” his whispered but everyone in the room could hear it. Hearing this Stella eyes went as wide as saucers. Before anyone could say anything there was a pulse the far brighter than the other shown and when the light deemed words could be seen

The people in the room were all but spitting blood at this. To have to people with such strong blessings was all but unheard of. It would happen once a decade at most. The last person to have such a power soul was Tyson but that was five years ago at his own ceremony, and no one was expecting anyone else for at least five more years.

This wasn’t the end either. This night would go down in history as one of the most important moments not just for the kingdom, but for entire world of Jura.

Everyone in the room was completely shocked. What was happening tonight never happened. To have so many powers soul focused one place was something completely unheard of.

The duke was smiling broadly a small dot of sweat traveling down his face. He was nerves as an noble he was ecstatic to see so much power under his domain, but as a man he was worried about all the trouble this much power might bring. He had an ideal to solve this, but he decided to hold off until he could see what would happen with his own grandson. Part of him silently hoped that his grandson would be normal. Another part of him hope that he would out do all of them.

But just before he could call up his grandson and son-in-law, four figure appear out of nowhere. When the duke realized who they were he could hold back his expression anymore. His eyes grow to the size of dinner plates. “HEAVENLY BEASTS!!!” the duke shouted before taking a knee. Seeing this and hearing his words everyone in the room except for Ciel, Tyson, Elsa and Crytos fell to their knees bowing.

Heavenly beasties have special status in the Azure kingdom. While their family only holds the rank of count by their own choice, those who give the title of “heavenly” are grant special status that is higher than a duke but is lower than the royal family.

The heavenly dragon, tiger, turtle, and Phoenix were the ones to show up. All of them looked as if they were in their early twenties, but if you looked into their eyes, you could tell they were far older than that. There were two men and to women among them.

A woman with hair that seem to be on fire stepped forward to speak for the group. “Stand and continue we came to watch the ceremony, but it seems like we missed most of it thanks to a certain napping cat and lizard, but we can at least catch the end of it.” the two men that she was talking about looked chagrined at her words but didn’t say anything. The other woman snickered to herself.

The duke stood up at her words but didn’t look her in the eyes. “If you don’t mind me asking, why are there four heavenly beasts at a mere naming ceremony?” he asked still not meeting her eyes.

“That a dumb question.” she chuckled. “There would have been more than just us, but we promised to tell the other what was going on. But to answer your question. We could fill the wave of power coming from here and got curious. It not everyday souls this young and powerful come around.” she giggled. “On top of that, the cat and lizard could something strange, so we came. But that enough of that. There is still one more kid right.” she turned to Crytos and smiled brightly at him, then rubbed her hands together. “Let's get started on the last one.”

Everyone raised their heads and turned towards Crytos. At her words Ciel was about to step forwards but the heavenly dragon that showed up with the other held up a hand “Let me take care of this one son.” Ciel hesitated before nodding.

The duke reach for the orb and gave it to the dragon. He poured his energy into it than handed it to Crytos.

As soon as Crytos touched it everything seemed to pause, as if the universe itself was holding his breath. After a few seconds it felt like the breath was released.

That release pushed everyone back from Crytos. Even the heavenly beast, who can at their full strength can shatter mountains like plates, were pushed back which made their eyes open wide. Everything around Crytos pulsed in prismatic colors. The very ground beneath their feet began to tremble violently knocking everyone except the duke, Ciel, the heavenly beast, and Crytos off of their feet. If they could see outside, they would see several stars glowing brighter than usually.

Then everything stopped all of a sudden and everything went quiet. You couldn’t even here a breath. Two exquisite swords appear before Crytos. The blades looked as if it was carved out of primal metals. The blades shone like a star. It was silver with a purple tint. The hilt seems to make of prismatic dragon scales, with the pummel in the shape of a heart with a sharp point.

But before anyone could comment Crytos pulsed before a door grow out of him. The door looked ordinary in every way, but the overwhelming wave of power coming it was anything but ordinary. Then both the sword and the door pulsed, and words appeared.

Before anyone could react to what was going on, a voice came out of nowhere and everywhere. “Well now, we can’t have that now can we. I’m going to have to fix this.” The as if he was always there like a piece of the world itself, a man appeared in front of Crytos. “Sorry kid. Its not you its me.” the man said in a theatrical voice while wiping fake tears from his eyes. “I’m going to have to let you go.” he said as an oppressively power began to bear down on everyone.

“Bye, bye”
