Rise of the Empire (Teaser)
"If the next two sword trainees could step forward." A man said.
Two kids stepped forward. A girl in the traditional sword trainee clothing, and a boy in an outfit that was black and ninja-like.
The man, who is the supposed teacher, looked at the boy. "Well sir, I assure you our trainee outfits are optimal for sword duels. Are you sure you do not want to wear one instead of your current outfit?"
The boy nodded.
The teacher then looked at the two children. "Very well then. You two shall duel with your swords. Please step onto the mat."
The two children pulled out their swords, though the sword that belonged to the boy seemed to have some kind of green liquid on the blade.
A queen was sitting on her throne, looking down at the same boy. He was standing there with his sword out. The queen then spoke. "As much as it pains me, I'm afraid I must exile you for breaking our laws."
The boy calmly but his sword back its sheath that hung on his back. "I understand your highness. I shall leave peacefully and quietly. I will do my best to protect you and your land from the outside."
The Grandmaster Judge, the man in the robe standing next to the Queen, chuckled. "Your probability of surviving exile in a land surrounded by many murderous nations is a mere zero percent."
The boy looked at the judge. "The odds are not my problem Grandmaster."
The boy then walks away.
The kingdom's army was lined up ready for a fight. The head of the guards then spoke. "Where are they? We know they're supposed to invade us today."
One of the spearmen then spoke up. "Hey! What's that over there."
The army looks into the distance to see one figure approaching. The head guard stepped forward. "Stand your ground, we don't know what this could be." He said.
As the figure got closer, it was revealed to be a man in what seemed to be a makeshift ninja outfit made from various materials such as cloth and crawler skin. It was noticeable that he had white hair. He was dragging the body of what seemed to be a spearman in this weird purple armor.
The head guard continued looking that the ninja man. The ninja made it to where the army stood. He then threw the body he was dragging in front of the head guard. "I believe this is the man responsible for what was supposed to be today's invasion."
The head guard then looked down at the body. "Thank you sir. Is there anything we could do for you?"
The man in the ninja outfit looked up. "Well, maybe some food? I don't want to sound greedy, but for the past 10 years I've been eating nothing but crawlers, demons, and even folk of the surrounding nations."
The head guard nodded. "Well sir, I do believe we can get you something. But if you don't mind, we'd like you to talk to our queen first so we can properly arrange this trade."
The man in the ninja outfit smiled, his white hair flowing in the wind. "That'd actually be quite fine. There's some things I'd like to discuss with her anyway."
A/N: That's the teaser ladies and gentlemen, hope you have a nice day. AP100 out.
