I was sitting beneath Zhan's bed while Zhan was sitting on the bed holding the book...he brushed through that book...with love in his eyes , he couldn't hide that...
Zhan *You know , this book was written by someone very dear to me...*
( I looked down while Zhan was starting at the book intensely)
Zhan * where did you find it , how did you get there , why you and what's the meaning of this , is not to my concern. What I care the most is that I can finally read this...I'm thankful for that..*
( He was talking to me as if I'm a third wheel and I don't like that )
Lu * hmm...*
Zhan * sorry , I'm talking too much. So, should we started reading...*
( I just nodded and Zhan started reading..)
*MY CHILDHOOD...*
They said that the day I born, our whole empire came to an end as we lost our battle and was taken as slaves by the LANA empire ,which almost ruled half of Northern part .
I , who was just a new born ,was taken by the master JING LI , the most callous person I have ever met...
He is the retired warrior who once served as the left hand of King Lan... He thought my how to kil* rather that how to fight... I was raised as a bomb and never a sword..
He used to tell me that *we are the delinquents of God of death, We must liberate the unwelcome mortal shell from its earthly torment and restore it to its divine source. * which I understood was kil*ing is a art of God which was passed down to us and I never once thought it was a wicked art...
Since I was just 10 master thought me the toughest sword techniques. I was grown alone cause master never allowed me to go out side and play like a normal kids... he told me that *they are just fools to think life can give happiness and joy while they are just covering themselves with sheets of imaginations * I thought to myself * I'm special..? That why mom , dad never came to see me..? And is that a good thing? *
All he told me was the ki*ling , eliminating and restoring the peace . Nothing more, nothing less.
One day, there is announment that everyone should be in there houses and should not come out but master took me out side for the first time and suddenly we are in the middle of battle happening between two clans and All I had in my hands is a sword... he said * go and show your art to the wicked souls*
I was just 14 at that time... I saw a man borging on to me and I pulled out my sword and sliced his head into half in less that a second... I saw a proud smile on my master's face and I like that..! I smile back as blo*d Splashed over my face...that was my first kil*..!
Me and master kil*ed and eliminated every one on our way as we are the only one standing on the blo*d paradise... I saw all the unwanted flesh taken away by the creator, as it started pouring... I raised my head up as the nature is purifying me with its tears of pity... I watched the world without sheets protecting me... I thought isn't it beautiful...? I'm an abluent haa?
I was taken back to master's home as he handed me a sword and said * this is the Divine sword , which is a bridge between hell and heaven and now it is yours... this is a part of you with will help you to fulfill your duty as an Yòu*
I took the sword and the blessings of Master and started to walk towards the unknown... I looked up and thought of my parents being happy in heaven and said * let me send you some Escorts mom and dad.. *
-the end..!
That gave me a cold spine as goosebumps started to raise...
Zhan was still looking at the book cover and gave it back to me and said
Zhan *what do you think of that person now..? Is he a bad guy? *
( I couldn't answer)
( He just looked down and said he wanted to just sleep , so I just left him and I too went to sleep )
I thought to myself *what was that..? And why do I feel like he resemble someone...?*
( I fell asleep.. and saw an old man in my dreams handing me a cold looking sword..)
