Chapter 1

In the middle of village of Ruben, a large shadowy figure wearing a stranger circular pendant with stands before Anne the weapon smith of Ruben, towering over her in height and size.

"Here's the enchanted knifes you've requested, Mr Bant. That would be 2731 ED~" said Anne with a smile toward the stranger, clueless of who the stranger really is.

"Huahahaha, thanks missy" as the stranger store the knives in his special set of knife sheath attached to his hip. "There, 3000 ED, and keep the change." The stranger winked while stroking his marvellous moustache, causing her to let out a soft giggle.

A sinister smile grew on the stranger face as he walk pass Hagus the Chief of Ruben village. On his way to the village entrance, there's a sign board, filled with numerous news and notices, which one at the left corner of the board, a picture of the notorious thief who has been known to be terrorizing the countryside.

Suddenly….."Halt there!" The stranger's path was blocked by none other than the drillmaster of the camp in Ruben Village, Lowe in red. His appearance may of that innocent but he is fearless and incredible skilled in battle. "What would be the problem Mr Lowe" said the stranger as he adjusted his glasses.

"You look awfully familiar, like I've seen your face before…." Lowe moves in closer with a determined look." Quite familiar, hmm"

Crap…..I knew using these wacky glasses with a big nose and moustache disguise won't work. I even specially left my broadsword in the woods for this!

"cough I …I believe you are mistaking me for someone else. I am but a simple adventurer visiting this village to sharpen my knives for my next journey." Lowering his voice, the stranger replied. "If I may, I would like continue on my way as my team mates are waiting for me"

The stranger tenses as he saw Lowe slowly reaches to his sword "I have a hunch, are you perhaps…."

"Oh Lowe, stop scaring away my customer!" Lowe was interrupted by Anne from a far. "You always do this to everyone new here ishh"

"tch" Lowe slightly blush in embarrassment, moved aside allowing the stranger to stranger waves a farewell to the helpful weaponsmith and went deeper into the forest.

"So how's the investigation coming around?" Hagus asked the approaching Lowe.

"When my team arrives at the scene we found nothing out of the ordinary…..well other than a big crater. Not much was found, just bits of metal of unknown origin and some burnt trees. The area seems like a bomb exploded there. There's also some strange claw-like footprint, not like any animal I've seen. I would like to advise everyone not to venture out until we have everything sorted out."

"Sir Lowe!" Lowe turned toward the source and saw a red with a black strike haired boy, wearing the same version yet smaller sized red shirt running straight to him.

"I'm ready to…"

"…. "No, Elsword you're not ready!" the boy was interrupted by Lowe with a stern voice.

"Your training is still far from over. You haven't even mastered the basics and you want to go out to the world? Do you want to be caught unprepared and end up like Els...…" Lowe stuttered as he just noticed what he is saying and saw the tearful glare Elsword is giving.

Yes…..Elsa, what have happened to her is ….a tragic unforeseen accident. Elsa, age 10 and her little brother Elsword, age 7 are the children of Elscud who was a famous knight of Velder but decided to retired and settled at Ruben, "to have a peaceful house to live in" as what he have acclaimed. However, 2 year after their settlement, their father was requested by the King of Velder for a secret mission…and he hasn't been heard since. This left the two kids to take care of each other which developed into a sibling bond that's truly unbreakable. Thankfully, Hagus and Annie were there to take care of the kids.

Elsa was truly an amazing knight. In less than a year she already mastered the basic and some of the technique her father used. However, it's still not enough for her to avoid her tragic fate. At the age of 13 while training in the woods with her little brother, they are ambushed by a horde of demons led by the demon general Scar, or so Elsword describe. Both of them were able to defeat all the minions except for Scar himself. The difference between their powers is like comparing a baby to a grown man.

What happened can only be described through the damages that have been inflicted. Hagus and I found the two of them huddled together with Elsa hugging Elsword tightly, trembling in fear and kept on repeating his name like a mantra. Elsword's injuries are in a better state than what Elsa has. Broken bones; hands and legs, wound all over the body, missing an eyeball and to make matter worst her mind was a mess. Eventhough her physical injuries may heal, Elsa will not be fit to pick up her sword or any hard physical activities ever again.

Elsa was like a scared wounded animal, trembling in fear to anyone that approach her other than Elsword and never wanted to separate from him. It took almost 1 year for her to start warming up to others but still clings to Elsword the whole night.

"I….I'm…..sorry…I didn't mean anything of that. I just….."

"…thinking on your well-being? That's all you ever said! All your trainings are all the same, I've already seen and mastered them from my sister!" Elsword finished Lowe's sentence, clearly in the verge of crying. "So….STOP LOOKING DOWN AT ME!"

And then there was a long emptiness, void of sound.

And then Hagus broke the depressing silence, "Ahem, I believe that it may be true that the boy may not be ready to journey out alone at the moment…" earning a sharp glare from the red head,"…..but what if, he is being accompanied out instead? Those two should be arriving by tomorrow morning. Then you don't need to worry, they will help take care of boy could safely get a better experience of the world."

Elsewhere, in the middle of a marsh south of Ruben Village, lies a small little cottage. No birds chirping, no living creature seems to be making any sound or skittering around, the leaves and air all are seemingly frozen in time. The atmosphere is peaceful yet dark at the same time.

"Are you sure you have everything? Did you forget anything?" a female voice was heard within the cottage, breaking the silence.

"Yes, yes I have everything I needed, packed neatly in my bag already, Auntie Speka!" another voice was hear, a higher pitch than the last.

Inside the cottage, various books in bookshelves and on the floor can be seen. At the centre, there's a cauldron, the content glow with a faint purple colour. Sitting on a comfy chair made out of fine dark wood decorated with carvings of skulls and batty symbol, the young girl wearing clothing of black and purple and a typical witch hat, adjusted her glasses and lay down her black and purple grimoire." Are you certain? You always forget at least something every time you went out, like the last time you went to gather some herbs. I can't believe you would forget to wear your underw…."

"Shu…shut up! Don't say anymore, Auntie Speka!" spoke another girl with glasses and a similar yet smaller physics, but with a different set of coloured clothing closes her ear shut with her face being as red as a tomato. It was a lighter purple and instead of the colour black, they are white being a prominent colour.

"Hey stop calling me that! How many times should I tell you to call me Miss Speka, my lil niece Aisha."

"I'm sorry aun…..i mean 'Miss' Speka. If there's nothing else, I'll be heading out now" sigh Aisha as she leaves to the door.

Speka stood up and walk toward the girl, "Wait, you forgot something im-por-tant~!"

"What is…." Before she could finish, the girl is now being embraced by the former.

"You forgot a goodbye hug, lil Aisha~"

"I…th….thank you." The child blushes. As she replied, a pendant with a star shape emblem at the centre can be seen dangling in front of her.

The witch "Here's a farewell gift, to ward off evil~ Remember to write or come back to visit when you're free. If you don't, I'll send Angkor to harass you~"

"I….I'll make sure to write back whenever I can. I'll be heading out now~" Aisha wore the pendant and left with a smile.

"Take care~" Speka replied. Once Aisha's figure has left the boundary of the cottage, her smile slowly fades to a bitter smile as she turns her sight to a simple small portrait frame. Within it an old and partially burned photo of 6 figures, herself revealing that she have never aged nor changed her appearance. An elf stands hugging her from behind, wearing a variation of the Velder Imperial Guard Crown, the Wind Hunter Top Piece and Tarten Check Bottom. To her right a man in white El Officer Uniform stand, wearing a serious expression yet a gentle smile. To her left is where the photo was burned. A young man whose face was no longer visible carried a broadsword matching him in size on his shoulder. He is just a head taller than Speka. He wore a black leather suspender with a white bottom pants and a circular gold pendant. On his shoulder a small phoru stands, holding a small dagger with a snobbish looks. Behind the boy, lies a lady-like figure .Only the bottom half of her body is visible. She wore a seemingly sleek dark purple leotard and leggings with batty emblems as well as having mysterious runes forming along her visible hands. If the picture is examined more closely, the lady seems to have bat-like wings.

"Sigh….alone once more…huh? How many years have passed…..I wonder….what are they all doing right now…."

"Awww don't be sad, you still got me!~" a bat like creature, of black and white, flying around her and slowly descend on top of the witch's lap

The witch patted the creature and smile.

As the sun slowly set, deep in the woods, far east of Ruben Village, there's a gathering taking place. 3 shadowy figures of different sizes were setting up camp.

"Hey boss, what took ya so long!" said one of the thieves, shortest among the group.

"Huahaha, got stopped halfway out, can't help it" the stranger proclaim.

"Here big guy, stole a pie freshly baked from Ruben just for ya!" the stranger reveal a large pie from some unexplainable dimension, passing it to the largest sized bandit that even overshadow the stranger.

"….." the giant nod and place the pie on a chopped back.

"Boss, are ya gonna keep wearing that ridiculous disguise?" the medium sized thief spoke.

"This simple and ridiculous design just fooled all the people at that village. No one even suspect me as….."

Taking of the disguise, the scar which totally robbed him of his right eye revealing that the stranger is none other than…

"Banthus the leader of the notorious thief, nice to see you again poru" the narrator was interrupted by a childish voice coming from the bushes.

"Huahaha, ah William! Glad you accepted the invitation. Glad to work with ya again"

"The pleasure is mine, poru. So what's the plan Banthus, poru" asked the phoru.

"Here's plan boys, first we're gonna…"

As the bandits were busy discussing, a pair of violet eyes stares intensely over hearing the bandits plan. Her long pointy ears twitches as every details no matter how small " I better warn Rubens about this" As she quickly leaped off the trees to the next making her way to the village, her figure is revealed all so short, concealed by a dark brown cloak.

However her journey is cut short when the tree she's jumping to was taken down. She slowly chants a spell, slowing her descent with the power of the wind. Her cloak covering her head is now lifted up, revealing an elf with dark brown skin, wearing violet and green coloured clothing, wielding a bow with no string attached. Her long hair of indigo colour flows gently with the wind .

She looks around her, hoping to find who the one responsible for the attack was. A large humanoid creature, bearing a wolf like appearance having strange runes tattooed around its body stands before her. She prepares her bow and steeled herself for the incoming attack.
