WARNING! LIME SCENE IN THIS CHAPTER! SKIP THE SCENE IF YOU ARE 16 OR YOUNGER! YOU WERE WARNED!
4 Days Later
"Again!" Erik yelled out to Guiche, who was trying his best not to fall over from exhaustion of casting multiple spells to keep up with Er...no his teacher. Guiche inhaled sharply and flung 5 more petals to reveal golems that are looking like they were about to crumble, but still held on for life as three charged Erik, who was only using a sword he borrowed from one of the school guards, for now at yet. Why you ask? It's day of the void, or referred to as Hollow's Day. So far, for the ones he really cared to counted, him, Louise, Saito, Guiche, Montmorency, Kaite, Kirche, Tabitha, Siesta, and Colbert. Everyone else either stay or went back home for the holiday's. He refocused on his student, who clothes has seen better days as dirt caked different areas and some scratches adorned his face. But despite the looks of exhaustion, his eyes were aflamed of being better, to rise above his past character. Erik smiled at his students willingness to learn the best from him, but he then faced one of the golems and fought it with ease. Unlike the last time they fought at Vesti Court, Guiche was ready for him and had his golems gained much thicker armor, heck at some point his weapon nearly got caught in one of his golems, but it was understandable for it was in the golem's knees. Erik stopped a sword cut that was nearly at his face, pushed it back and thrust his blade into it's skull. As the golem turned to dust, he sees two defending Guiche as the last ones charged him. Erik smirked at how quick Guiche was learning the true benefits of his magic, like new tactics for some golems for defence while most of his forces attack. But Guiche still have much to learn as some opponents can strike him from afar. He has person, a bow he made from the materials in the forest and had Colbert enchant it with strength to make it stable as a normal one from a bow maker. And he had arrows with small sack bags to hit Guiche without worry of hitting him. He made all of this 2 days ago when Guiche was getting better with his golems defenses and attacks from close up, but wanted him to get better with long range attacks. And so, grabbing his bow when Guiche's line of sight was obstructed, pull an 'arrow' from his quiver, and readied a shot as he jumped forward into a roll, away from a golem that was gonna cut him down. Guiche saw Erik with his bow too late as Erik drew the bow back, while aiming with a speed that would make Robin Hood green with envy and let it fly. Seconds later Guiche was hit in the head with the sack and immediately dropped to the ground, while his golems turned to dust. Why did this happen? Simple, the sack held a enchantment made by Osmond, Colbert and some other teachers, just for training purposes, cut off one's magic and siluamated death when hit by one. It did not last long as 3 seconds later, Guiche was already getting up from the hard fall due to the sudden paralysis of the training ammo and saw Erik looked down at him with an arm stretched out. Guiche sighed as he took the hand and was pulled up.
"20 minutes before being downed. Well done Guiche, you are showing good progress so far." Erik said as he looped an arm around his shoulder, and patted it. Guiche was happy to hear praise from his teacher. Never that he thought such thing would make him glad, but after everything that has happened, he was happy and he was already seeing results. The school could barely recognize Guiche as he was no longer flirting and was studying more on earth magic, much to the shock of the girls there. They eventually took it as a sign to no longer worry about his casanova ways and moved on, except one. Everyday that Guiche was training, Montmorency would watch at first helplessly as Guiche would get hurt during the spares between him and Erik, who was now referring as Sensei. But after each spare, Guiche was helped up by Erik and they both have smiles on their faces, it made her worried at first cause of how Guiche was no longer flirting with any girls, and she meant any girls. It worried her when she notice the next time she talked to him, he was talking to her like a normal boy who talked to a girl who was a friend. She then talked to the other girls, and she was surprised that he hasn't flirted with any girls ever. So then, she followed him and Erik to see them spare ever since. She saw them chatted a bit, walking to the gates while hiding from view. She then saw Erik talked to him, and Guiche went to the school, leaving Erik alone at the gates. She was about to leave when Erik started walking away from the gates to where she believes is the circle he and Colbert made days ago. Montmorency then follow him and saw that indeed he was at the circle in a sitting position with his legs crossed close while in a standard meditation stance. Montmorency starred in wonderment at what he was doing when she heard someone speak.
"You know, it's not polite to watch us without our consent my dear. We would think that you were stalking us Monmon." Erik said suddenly, getting an epp from Montmorency, before she poked her head out of the bushes. He smiled at her embarrassment, and he made a 'come here' gesture, and she came to the circle. She stepped into the circle, thinking that the light that surrounded Louise will engulf her too, but it didn't happen as she sit down. Erik opened his eyes and looked at her.
"You know that be concerned for him when you ignored him at first was counterproductive in trying to punish him for what he did." Erik said with a smile, getting a flustered mad look from her.
"Well excuse me for showing concern for my loved one when he's being tossed around by you! I don't know what you are doing to him, but I don't approve of it." Montmorency said, getting a grin from Erik and a raised eyebrow.
"Really? Even if it's to train him to be a better man with a better mindset than before?" Erik said, getting a confused look from her.
"Training? Why are you training him? He has great magic ability." Montmorency said, getting a shake from Erik.
"He may have, but he has a mindset of a boy who thought he could get anything by saying sweet words. I'm tearing that down for something better. For him... and for you." Erik said, getting a shocked look from her.
"F...for me? Why?" Montmorency said, getting a inhale of breath from Erik.
"Because I don't want the same to happen to him, like what happened to me." Erik said, getting a confused look which made him smile.
"I was the same as Guiche when I was younger, but the price i payed for it was too great. I lost the respect of everyone I knew, my parents disowned me, the girls I loved hated me, and my sister...dead." Erik said with closed eyes, not seeing the look of shock from the drill haired girl, with her mouth clamped by her hand. Erik opened his eyes to look at her with a smile.
"But because of that, I joined the rebellion in America and became a commander for them. And what I'm teaching Guiche now is what I was taught back then, but with some magic in it. I hope you would wait for him to finish the results. I plan to have him train for six months, but I'm considering dropping it to 3 months instead. Would you wait for him then?" Erik said, getting a nod from Montmorency. Erik then stood up and offered a hand to her, and she was pulled up by him.
"And by the way, Guiche is hoping to have dinner with you sometime on. Shall I give him a response from you Monmon?" Erik said with a teasing grin, getting a flustered drill head in response stuttering.
"He...he does?! Why didn't he tell me if he wanted too when I asked him?" Montmorency said in confusion. Erik smiled at her confusion since it was his fault for Guiche to not only flirt with girls, but not accept any dates from the girls until he was done training. But what they both don't know that Erik can bend his rules slightly for a better benefit of someone he cares for.
"He would, but I told him that he can't go on dates. But I've decided to treat him for doing a good job of his training. So...what day do you want to have a date with him on?" Erik said, getting a shocked look at first before she looked flustered, but she answered.
"To...tomorrow night will be okay. I have to get a dress for it, is that ok?" Montmorency said, getting a grin from Erik.
"Of course Monmon. I'll let him know ok?" Erik said, and she nodded yes, feeling happy. She then felt a pat from him.
"Ok then, you better get going. Don't want to take up the rest of your day." Erik said, and saw her run off happy. He stood there for awhile, wondering if Louise was up and about since she didn't have to worry about waking up early. He then walked back to the grounds through the gates and saw in the distance is Reginald trying to pull out his wand to no avail as he then dropped to the ground out of breath. Erik ignored him for now to see Louise and Saito walking towards him.
"Morning you too, I thought I had to wake both you up from your lovey-dovey nap." Erik said with a teasing grin, causing both of them to blush hard. Louise had a mad look while blushing.
"Me and this dog did not wake up from a lovey-dovey nap Erik!" Louise said. Erik grinned at how easy he can tease her. But he decided to not push further, for he was ready to head to town.
"Oh well. But I was wondering how we get there? Do we use horses or what?" Erik said, still getting used to the lack of modern technology at the present time. Louise shook her blush as she had an answer.
"We'll have to use horses to get there. Have you rode a horse before?" Louise asked, getting a nod from Erik.
"Only once or twice, but I know the basics of it. I'll just follow behind you two." Erik said, getting blushes back full force.
"Wh..why does he have to ride with me? Can't he ride with you?" louise said, getting raised eyebrows from the two males.
"Ok, one he can't due to my size. And two, you two can fit better on a horse together." Erik said. Louise sighed in defeat and then turned to Saito, pointing at him.
"Fine, but you better not touch me in weird spots or kicking of the horse." Louise said, walking away with a hmph and pout. Saito sighed and looked at Erik.
"Thanks for the save Erik, I thought I had to save a horse with another man." Saito said, getting a nod from Erik.
"No problem man, at least you can feel up a girl by 'accident' than a man." Erik said with a grin, getting a blush from Saito.
"I..I don't think of wanting too even if I want too. But at least we don't have to.." "Say no more Saito. Now let's go, Louise is waiting for us." Saito said before he was interrupted by Erik. They both saw Louise with two horses, one brown and the other brown with spots of black and white. Louise and Saito was getting on the brown horse while Erik petted the other's mane to ease it up for him to get on. He then went to middle and got up in one motion, seeing Louise already on while she helped Saito. After some time of missteps by Saito, the three trekked along a dirt road to the capitol as Erik recalled what happened last night, hoping that it wouldn't be an occurrence while being here. Why you ask? Kirche. Kirche and her 'flames of passion', that's why.
Last night
Erik and Guiche was returning after they got done sparing. Once more Erik spotted Montmorency as she looked on with worry. But he shook his head, and addressed his second student.
"Alright you better head off to bed Guiche, tomorrow we do the same thing, but with different golems ok?" Erik said, grinning at his student's heavy breathing. Hey, at least he's breathing and walking at once, so he could handle himself to his room. Guiche nodded his head.
"Will do... sensei. See you.. Tomorrow." Guiche as he walked to the direction of the boys dormitory. He smiled at his students new will of fire, before looking at where his 'other half' was and find that she ran off somewhere. He shrugged his shoulders, and walked to the kitchens to get something to eat before going to wash up somewhere. He walked about when something caught his eye. It was the same teacher he dressed down a few days ago, walking a zombie with no sense of direction...until the man saw him, and the look of shame, despair and hopelessness turned into raw anger, hate and rage as he ran at Erik screaming like a mad man. The man went to throw a punch, only to be caught by Erik and twisted his arm not braking it but made it painful enough to make him kneel in pain. The teacher screamed at the sudden pain of his arm being twisted, feeling like his arm was about to brake and kneel over trying to ease it by turning his body to the forceful direction of the twist, when he saw Erik shook his head.
"Is that anyway to greet people? Especially after what had happened a few days ago?" Erik said, seeing the teacher squirming in pain when he saw him glaring deathly.
"How did you do it?" The teacher said through gritted teeth.
"How did I do what exactly?" Erik said with a raised eyebrow, which got the teacher to grasp Erik's arm to move it without prevail.
"How did you take my magic, peasant?!" The teacher said with rage in his voice, getting Erik to narrow his eyes.
"What of your magic, teacher?" Erik said, having an idea what may have happened.
"Your brimir damn circle! It was disrespectful of what you've done to the grounds surrounding the school, so I saw fit, as a noble, sought to remove your circle. But I've made the mistake of walking into it, and it took away my magic! How...how did you do it? You're nothing but a peasant!" The man yelled, looking like he was about to pop a few blood vessels in his face. Erik then realized what had happen, and that made him smile.
"Well well well, teach. You really want to know how it happened huh?" Erik said with a grin and gleam of evil in his eye, catching the teacher off guard. He then bent down to whisper something in his ear, only to see the teacher paled very white at the horror he just heard. Erik then let go of his arm, forcing the man to lay on the ground, too shocked to do anything Then he heard the next words that truly propel him down into despair.
"Because of what you try to do to Louise, your magic is now forfeited, to serve someone better than you. Consider it a punishment, from a disrespectful commoner." Erik said and walked away, not caring if the man slept there all night. He had some karma racked, and he was the one do it's work. He then saw Siesta and waved at her.
"Hey Siesta! Do you guys have a washroom that I can use?" Erik said, getting a epp from her and a blush from embarrassment.
"Yes we do Sir Roland! Did you trained Lord Guiche hard today?" Siesta asked. Erik sighed at this.
"Everyone knows huh?" Erik asked, getting a nod from her.
"Yes, apparently one of the girls followed you and Guiche to the outside of the grounds and saw you two sparing and told everyone. Apparently one of the teachers is sending a letter to his parents to let them know what you are doing." Siesta said, getting another sigh from him. Yes, apparently a commoner training someone from higher birth is considered an offence and now the school is trying to get Guiche in trouble for wanting to better himself, know that he is capable of so. But their pride as welders of magic would not one of their own be taught be a 'lowly commoner'. Huh...then they could tell him that to his face and they'll see what happens. But he shook it off and looked at her.
"Yea, I'm training him to be a better person then the one I fought days ago. And if he parents come, I'll explain it to them. Heck, I think Guiche will prove the results of his training under me. I believe his father would change his view of his son." Erik said. Siesta nodded in understanding, and then saw Erik looked around.
"So...about that washroom. I feel very dirty right now, and I probably smell bad too." Erik said, getting a nod from her, and was told to follow her. After awhile, he appeared at the boy washroom for nobles, but since no on was in at the moment. Erik asked her for a change of clothes he could use for the night. Siesta nodded as she waited for Erik to dress down, and handed her the clothes. He didn't care what era he was in, wearing three layers of clothes that was impossible to be cool in the heat of day, and sweat was caked on his uniform. He knew that tomorrow would be an opportunity to get something since the teacher return the sack of coins he had given him. Apparently since it was new gold coins, they only need 3 for the main table, the rest was 50 new gold coins for him to spend. But feeling that he needed to spend it wisely, he asked Tabitha for the basics of currency, and she was glad to help him. Seems to him at the time that the currency is just like the old days of France, like 1200ish, don't ask how he knew. But anyway, with Siesta gone, he focused on his bath, feeling the non-manufactured soap on his skin and it felt better than the ones back home. Don't get him wrong, but after Alivon decided to turn his revolution away from animal products and chemical heavy items to promote a healthier lifestyle to bankrupt big companies to put pressure the government to quit early since most money back then was factory farms and some of the product makers that uses chemicals that are harmful to humans. Since then, despite the food shortages, food health in the rebellion had been better, as well as hygiene since turning away from the products they once used. He shook of the past and focused on the now as he finished soaping himself to rinse off in the tub. He then stepped out to see Siesta returned and her face was very red with steam coming from her ears. Erik realized what happened, covered his one eyed monster, and turned to the side. He stood there as Siesta slowly handed him his towel, getting a low thanks as Erik was a bit embarrassed by the accident that happened. Siesta turned to walk, closing the door behind her, but it still didn't deafen the loud 'Kya!' that sounded outside the bath. Erik shook his head at the clumsiness of the maid as he dried off. He then wrapped his towel to walk to the changing room to see a simple sewed brown shirt and pants with a pair of sandals to wear for the night as Siesta waited for him to exit the room, while she had more 'erotic' fantasies with her 'sir knight'. As she squirmed in embarrassment of the thoughts she had, Erik exited the room, much to her surprise. She then had to turn around with her face red at how the clothes on Erik was tighter than it should. Most of his arms are exposed, revealing hard muscles and the shirt was tight on his pecks. All in all, his body now is comparable to a lumberjacks with a military touch. Siesta looked back and felt blood dripping from her nose, much to Erik's amusement.
"Maybe I should have a cloak or table cloth to hide my 'weapons', don't you agreed Siesta?" Erik said with a grin, getting a fast nod from her as she ran to get something to cover Erik's 'secret' weapons. Erik shook his head in amusement, apparently the maid likes him a lot. It's no wonder, he defeated a noble without any use of magic (his runes don't count in his opinion), he defended some of the commoner servants from being abused by some nobles and he helped Louise the Zero become a true mage. And not to mention how he dressed down one of their worst teachers, and save the school from a winy noble who couldn't get his way, he was pretty much a budding hero already. He shook his head again at how very quickly he was being recognize quickly for his actions, when he spotted the red faced Siesta coming towards him with a cloak. She handed it to him, and he put it on. She looked at him, and in her mind, he looked like a handsome heroic adventurer, and she turned away blushing like a schoolgirl. She then felt a hand pat her shoulder as she saw Erik smiling at her.
"Thank you for your help Siesta. I don't know how to repay you." Erik said, seeing her shake her head.
"You don't need to repay me Sir Knight. Just.. being in your company is enough for me." Siesta said with a light blush. Erik grinned and grabbed her hand and kissed the top of it.
"Well I better head off. Louise is probably wondering where I am now. Thank you again, and have a good night Siesta." Erik said with a light bow, seeing her blushing more as she stuttered.
"G..go..good night Mr. Roland!" Siesta said, walking away after she finished her sentence. Erik shook his head and walked to the dorms where Louise was. Erik finished climbing the steps to where the level that held Louise's room, took a corner to see a giant red lizard with a flame at the tip of its tail. Before coming to this world, he thought he would be either losing his mind, or going up against a dangerous predator. But after seeing this lizard from time to time with a girl named Kirche, he knew that he wasn't in total danger. He smiled as he walked up to the creature, knelt in front of it and scratched the top of it's head. He gotten noises of approval since it wouldn't be able to scratch it's head to get the itches on it. He scratch the parts of head he knew it wouldn't be able to itch while chatting with it.
"Hey there Flame. What are you doing out here huh? Did your master kick you out or something? That's not like her." Erik said, getting a shake from it's head. Erik rose an eyebrow at this.
"Well then, how come you're out here huh buddy?" Erik said patted it's head, only to see it gently bite his shirt and pulled him slightly. Erik looked confused for a bit, before he let an oh.
"Oh, you're out here cause your master ordered you to come find me and return with me huh?" Erik asked, getting a nod from it. Erik then patted it's head and stood up.
"Alright then, if she sent you herself at this time, then it must be a private matter. Ok then Flame, lend the way." Erik said and Flame went to walk to it's masters room. It took a few minutes before Flame stopped by a door, which Erik saw it was its masters room, and so he knocked.
"Who is it?" A female voice called, expecting Flame to bust the door open with it's target on hand.
"It's me, Erik. I found Flame outside and it took me to your room. I guess you need to talk to me or something?" Erik said, hearing a soft gasp on the other side of the door.
"Y..yes! Come in Darling!" Kirche said, making Erik shake his head, knowing that she was one of the girls that liked him... a lot. And so he opened the door to let Flame in, which it did. Then he stepped in closing the door behind him...only to see Kirche laying on the bed, wearing a see through lingerie that reveals much to make any hot blooded males crazy. But Erik was different, as he rose an eyebrow at her daring action.
"So...did you need something? Or are you hoping for something...else?" Erik said, as he saw Kirche got up and walk towards him, swaying her wide hips in a sexy sway, hoping to capture him in her flare of passion. But Erik kept his eyes on hers, as she got closer. She got up close enough to wrap her arms around his neck, laying her nearly revealed breasts on his chest, hoping to get him flustered enough to surrender to his passion. Kirche then looked to his eyes, and he saw her eyes that held lust in them.
"Hello Darling. I hope flame wasn't harsh on you, since I ordered him to come grab you." Kirche said sweetly while pushing her breasts into him. Erik shook his head with a smile.
"Not at all Miss Zerbst. I found him out in the halls and went to scratch his head like usual, chatting with him. But he tugged me to follow him and I did so. And now that I'm here, though I'm concerned with why you're doing this. Shouldn't there be a noble for you to do this with, than what you guys call me 'A peasant.'?" Erik said with an eyebrow raised. Kirche giggled at his way of petting her Flame. But she pulled him closer into where their lips nearly touched.
"Maybe, but after that duel with Guiche, I felt my heart burning with passion. And that passion burns for you Erik. Don't you see Erik? I'm in love with you." Kirche said, like a horny schoolgirl that dragged her loved one home to be 'one' with him.
WARNING LIME AHEAD! YOU WERE WARNED!
But Erik had other ideas, as he suddenly got out of her arms, making her gasp and widen her eyes at the sudden movement. Before she asked what he was doing, he turned her around to hug her back with a hand grope her one of her breast and another cupped between her legs, making her moan. She felt his hands moving and groping her breast and 'flower' roughly, feeling the bulge in his pants digging into her butt as he pressed into her, making her pant heavily at the sudden arousal of his bold move. This went on for a minute before she felt the one hand cupping her mound pull her panties to one side and lightly brushing her 'flower' in circle motions. The other slipped between the bra on her right breast to draw circles around her nipple, brushing it every now and then, causing Kirche to bite her bottom lip in a sexy fashion, moaning in anticipation of the passion to come. But it never came as after a minute of that tease ended as both his hands stopped their assault, pulled the panties back to where they were and move his hands towards her stomach and pulled her into a hug. She wondered why he stopped his bold attempt of making passion, when he heard him speak.
LIME ENDED! DON'T COMPLAIN THAT IT'S SHORT!
"Thank you Kirche for feeling this way for a commoner, but I barely know you at all. So if you really do love me, then I suggest you get to know me as a friend first before we continue the passion we felt tonight, ok?" Erik said, getting a slow nod from her. He then released her and picked her up bridal style and walked her to the bed, while Kirche blushed up a storm at feeling like a princess. He then set her down on the bed and kissed her forehead.
"Good night Kirche. Tomorrow we will talk on how we can go on as friends before we can go together in the throws of passion, ok?" Erik said, getting a loving nod from her. He then turned to walk out the door, opened it to see Louise about to open the door. She looked at him with shock while he had a smile.
"Hello, my adorable master. I was about to head to your room to sleep. Let's get going, shall we?" Erik said, while getting a dumbfounded nod from her. He then exited Kirche room and walked to her room, not noticing the bugle in his pants slowly going down, and thankful Louise didn't notice either since she walked in front of him. She then stopped to turn and look at him angrily.
"So why were you in Kirche room?! Don't you know that her family and mine are rivals?! She tried to steal you from me.." Louise said angrily before Erik stopped her with a hug. She stop her rant with a shocked blushed look on her face. She then looked at him as he spoke.
"You don't have to worry about me Louise. No girl is gonna drag me away from my new little sister. So don't you worry, since I talked to Kirche about being friends for now. You okay with that, little sis?" Erik said, getting an 'oh' look from Louise before looked away with a smile and blush, then she nodded. Erik smiled as he ended the hug to see tears coming down, which made Erik wipe then away.
"Besides, I don't think Kirche will sleep soundly after the gift I gave her. But let's not dwell on that right now, for I like to sleep now. So let's get going, shall we?" Erik said, getting a nod from Louise. They continued walking as Louise asked what he did, only getting a grin and was told that he gave her some passion that will haunt her. Louise shook her head, not wanting to know what he did exactly. But she would've known, for if they hanged around Kirche's room long enough, they would've hear the throaty moans and shouts of 'Erik!' and 'More!' from Kirche as her phantom partner was now giving her the greatest passion her lust was imagining then and there.
Flashback ended
Erik chuckle as this morning seeing Kirche, she immediately blush and hid in her room to hide her embarrassment. Thinking that it was enough to make her rethink things between them as he had that talk with her right then and there, then went on to train Guiche that morning and now was heading into town to get not only weapons but clothes to wear and supply's he needed for a forge that will allow him to create a custom forged magnum gauntlet in honor of his commander. He then saw the town gates and caught up to Louise and Saito to see them heading for a horse stable. After some minute of going in the stable and getting off their horse's, they went into the town. Immediately he smelled hints of fecal matter and sweat in the commoner part of the town. Thankfully they were heading towards the noble side of town for a sword shop, and saw the one they needed to enter, and went in. Erik's first thought of how ill stocked the shop looked, some barrels held swords in there and some weapons are mismatched on the walls. He saw long-swords, short swords, axes, daggers, swears, pole arms, and even some shields. He then looked around to see which will be right for him, then something caught his eye. Nothing could prepare him what he found as this weapon was used by one of rebel lieutenants, a Ki-fen Katana. Most katanas were curved smoothly at the hilt to give a near crescent curve, but this katana had the blade angled upwards to give it a angled curved blade. He could not believe he found the blade of Lieutenant Tanaka of Zao's forces, as he inspected the blade, seeing the awesome crystal like blade with a black and red clothed hilt with a 'rising sun' handguard on it. It was a few minutes before Saito and Louise found him looking at the blade.
"Whoa, that's a nice blade! That look like it belong in Japan or something." Saito exclaimed, getting a chuckle from Erik.
"That's because the person who forged it lived there Saito. This was his finest blade from the drawings of the Risen Commander Alivon Vulken. Vulken thought it wasn't a blade worthy of being mass produced for all sword users in the Revolution, so he gave it to Tanaka of Zao's army. He made this and four others for his brothers and sisters that joined Zao when the revolution started. If we don't find any good swords here Saito, I'll give you this one, ok?" Erik said, getting an excited nod from Saito, while Louise stared at how beautiful and foreign the sword was. Then they heard someone behind them.
"Ah, I see you found the mystical sword summoned by Count Folbard of Gallia. The sword was passed around for years before it ended up here. But I don't think you're here for one sword, yes?" A man said, getting the three to turn to see, from Erik's guess, a shady business owner just by the look in his eyes, not minding the . Erik raise an eyebrow and decided to take charge.
"Indeed shop keep, this blade was forged by a friend of mine and had lost it for some time. I think he'll be happy to see it return. But yes, we need about one more blade and that should be it, good sir." Erik said with a forced smile, seeing the glint of greed in the man's eyes.
"Ah, I have just the sword you need! Wait one moment, please." The man said, disappearing behind the drapes on the door to the back. Louise looked at him, about to yell at him for what he was doing. But Erik grabbed her shoulders and whispered in her ear.
"Be on your guard. The man is more shady then a foolish gambler. He will try to get more money for weak swords so you need me to let me deal with him, ok?" Erik said, making her nod. He then heard the man return with two swords that look like it was for decoration then used for battle.
"This sword, my good sir, is forged by a noble in Germania. It's magical enchantments stops any spells from harming the user. Why don't you try it out?" The man said, holding the blade to Erik. He took the blade and immediately felt an imbalance on it. He took some steps to give it some practice swings, thrusts and twirls. He stopped to put what he believe to be the balance of most blades and put it on his two fingers. The sword immediately fell, much to the shock of Louise and the shop keep. Erik then grabbed the sword to inspect it.
"And..what was the materials used to forge this? If you don't mind me asking." Erik said, getting a cough from the shop owner.
"O..Of course! The noble used gold to forge this with some enchantments. Why do you ask?" The man said, while Erik flicked the sword at its core. He shook his head as he heard the hollow ring of the sword.
"No reason, but after what I've seen and felt on this sword, this sword is more suited being on a wall to collect dust then to draw blood on a battlefield. I think you got robbed with this sword sir." Erik said with narrowed eyes, getting a look of anger from the man.
"That blade was cost me more to obtain than anything else in this store! I'm offended that you could accuse me of theft sir!" The man said, getting a glare from Erik.
"Saito, Louise..step away from the store counter." Erik said as he closed the distance. Saito and Louise moved away, much to there confusion, only to see Erik bring up the sword to slash the counter between them. The man yelp and walked back with hands up, but Erik wasn't try to harm anyone. In fact, it was the opposite as he hit the counter, making the blade snap in half at the force of the swing...and the weakness of the material used to forge it. Everyone was quiet as Erik bring up the now broken sword in hand, tossing it to the counter.
"Now that we got this confusion cleared up, perhaps you can stop being a rat and give us some more suitable blades...before we report your business to the city guards." Erik said, with a hint of venom in the last words. The man paled at how the blade got broken with such ease and at the threat Erik made. This made him clawed back to his back room to find better blades. Louise stared at Erik with awe at how he was able to tell the blade was bad, and Saito wanted to know how.
"How did you the blade was bad? I thought you were gonna cut that counter up." Saito asked, getting a shake from Erik.
"It would have, but people don't realized that gold isn't a material that makes good blades. It's why they are used for coins and jewelry, they melt easy. Swords were supposed to be forged with iron or steel, because of how much stronger it is then gold. Like I said, that sword was much better a wall decoration then used on the battlefield." Erik said. They then heard a laugh from behind.
"Ha, that old man got what he deserved for trying to sell a weak sword like that. You sure know your stuff, pal." Something said, making everyone look around. Saito felt a pat on his shoulder that made him look at Erik, and he motioned his head at a barrel. Saito went to the barrel and looked for a sword. He pulled one out and it was a rusted sword, but from Saito's hand, and to Eriks eyes, it felt drawing to them. Then Erik said his piece.
"And I guess you know the man?" Erik said, seemingly to no one, making Saito and Louise at him funny. But that changed quickly as the hand guard that looked like a mouth moved.
"Of course I would know pal, that guy would sell junk to people!." The sword said, getting looks of shock from Louise and Saito, while Erik held an eyebrow.
"Am I crazy..or is this sword talking?" Saito asked, not believing that a sword was talking to them.
"Don't push you luck pal, I'm a famous sword known throughout history! I once served as the sword of gundolf, the left hand of god." The sword said, getting looks of shock from the young ones and a eyebrow raise from Erik. He then walked up to touch to blade between his finger and thumb.
"And who you might be, grand sword?" Erik said with a military hint, getting a gasp of shock from the sword.
"My name is Deflinger, but call me Derf. But how could this be! There are two gundolfs! There can only be one of you!" Derf said calmly at first, but sounded panicked at the end. Erik chuckled at his surprise.
"Well Saito, you got yourself a good sword. Just rub it down with some wool to get the rust off, a quick wash of salt water, and run him through a blade sharpener and he will be fit for service." Erik said with a grin, see Saito stare at the sword happily, while Louise looked at the sword funny. Erik then saw the man return and he stared in shock of Saito holding the ancient blade.
"You sure took your sweet ass time, but we found our swords. And after seeing that you tried to scam us, I like to make a deal that one, let us leave happy customers and two, you get to keep your job. Do you understand?" Erik said, getting a shaking nod from the shop keep, for he saw the black demon looming behind Erik and staring it's red eyes at him. For the next few minutes, Erik and the keep agreed to make the prices of the two swords really cheap, and the tools to clean the swords was bought at regular prices. The three left the shop to head for the blacksmith shop, leaving Saito and Louise on their 'date' as he called it, much to their stuttered blushing mess. Erik asked around of the best forger in town, and they all said the same thing. The man was jokingly named Rubin the Forge Wizard for his top grade forged items, and his shop is being closed down. Erik wondered why that was so he decided to pay this 'wizard' a visit. Erik sees the shop, and sure enough, the Rubin Forge is the shop name, and it had a closed sign on the door. He entered the forge to see a blacksmith hammering a blade on the anvil. The man turned to see Erik, and shook his head.
"Didn't you see the sign out there? I'm closed for business. Some damn noble got angry at my work and decided to close up my shop. This blade is my last, so take whatever sword you wanted to have fix up somewhere else." The smith said, getting an eyebrow raise.
"Who said anything about a sword? And what makes you so sure that blade there will be your last?" Erik said, seeing the smith look at him again with a scoff.
"If you're not here for a sword, then what else? Get out! You damn nobles have taken more than enough, you tyrant bastards." The man said, getting a glare from Erik as he walked up to grab the man and forced him to wall. He saw the scared look from the man at the sudden move.
"Don't compare me to those spoon fed whining Hogwarts wanna-be fucktards ever like that again!" Erik yelled out, getting a more shock at the man before him. Erik kept a hold on the man.
"I had come from a very humble upbringing that is worthy of remembrance of my people. Not just because of how I fought for the freedom of the common people, but because of how I fought those bastards that abused their powers to make their 'lesser' their slaves. So do not compare me to them, for I am now, and always will be, a tyrants worst nightmare." Erik said with a very mad face, getting a scared look from the man. Erik breathed a deep sigh and gently let go of the man.
"Sorry, I hate being referred to a tyrant when people don't know my story. Forgive me for that, good sir." Erik said with a small smile, making the smith nod slowly. Erik then walked to his work and picked it up. He saw that it looked beyond ready for cooling, at least to his knowledge.
"You think this sword is ready for cooling? I think your past that stage, yes?" Erik said, getting a sigh from the smith.
"Yes it is, but my mind has been everywhere wondering what to do for money for the family. So I was hoping to get something for this." The smith said, getting an eyebrow raise from the soldier. He then raised the sword high to strike the anvil, much to the shock and horror of the smith. Before he could stop him, Erik struck the anval, breaking the blade in half. The smith looked at the blade in horror wondering why his blade was fragile. Erik then saw the impurities in the blades core and chuckled at the water barrel. Erik then turned to the smith.
"Don't ever think about making that blade again with what you have used to forge it. The metal had impurities in it, causing it to be weaker than normal. I think you understand why I'm telling you this?" Erik asked, getting a nod from the smith.
"Yeah I understand. But wait!? That means the.." The blade you forged for the noble was fragile already and he felt you robbed him. I can help with this problem, but only if you agreed to something for me." Erik said, getting a determined nod from the smith.
"Of course I can! Now that I know that the metal I was given was bad, I don't have to worry about my shop closing." The smith said, getting a shake from Erik.
"Close it anyway. Pack up everything essential, and take you and your family to the gates tonight with everything you need. Use this if you have too." Erik said, throwing a small sack of coins to him. The smith opened the sack and his mouth fell open.
"But sir! This is.." "More than enough to pay for a horse and wagon for where you and your family are heading. Be ready tonight as I solve who gave you the false metal so that others don't suffer the same fate. Do you remember the last shipper of the metal?" Erik said, seeing the smith nod his head.
"I do, the man was in a wagon that had many items in it. He said he was a traveling merchant that was selling things for cheaper prices of what he had. He said his name was Gernart Stuffleburg of Germania." The smith said, getting a nod from Erik.
"I'll be sure to find out what I need to know. Mr..." Erik said holding a hand out for a shake. The man grabbed his hand and shakes it.
"Rubin Taulfet, sir. Proud fifth generation blacksmith sir." Rubin said, getting a nod from Erik.
"Very well Rubin, pack everything you need and be ready to leave tonight. Because after I'm done here, you will no longer serve this city anymore as a public blacksmith. You will be under my service and protection while you give me fine blades only made by your hands. Does that sound good to you?" Erik said, getting a happy nod from Rubin.
"Of course sir. I shall do as you ask of me. Sir.." Rubin said, leaving the sir ro be fill by Erik.
"No sirs at all Rubin, for my name is Erik Von Roland. Just call me Erik or Roland, whatever suits you Rubin. Now if you excuse me.." Erik said as he turned to the door, not letting the evil glint in his eye.
"I'm off to go hunting." Erik said just before he left the shop. He looked to see Louise and Saito coming out of a shop about 6 yards away, flagging them down while walking to them.
"Hey you too! You're about to leave?" Erik said, getting a nod from Louise.
"Yeah, me and this dog are done looking around for stuff. What about you? I thought you're gonna get blacksmith tools?" Louise said, getting a chuckle from Erik.
"I thought so too, but fate(god) decided to give me something even better. But there is a few things that must be done before I get it. I'm gonna be here for the night, while doing my work, so you too head back." Erik said, getting shocked looks from the two.
"Wh..Why?! What do you have to do that warrants you staying the night in the capitol?!" Louise asked, seeing Erik knelt down in front of her.
"Louise..do you trust me?" Erik asked, getting a look from his summoner.
"Wh...what are you saying?" Louise asked with worry.
"Do you trust me Louise Vallière?" Erik said sternly, getting a more shocked looked from her. She wondered for a few moments before she resigned.
"Yes...Yes I trust you Erik." Louise said, getting a wide smile from Erik, as he patted her shoulders.
"Then you have absolutely have nothing to worry about me. What I'm about to do is what I used to do best in the revolution. So go home without me today, and know that I will be back tomorrow. Ok?" Erik said, getting a nod from Louise.
"Ok then, now this is what I want you to do. When you get back to the academy, tell the headmaster and Colbert.." Erik said, lend in to whisper the rest in her ear. She listen intently before her eyes widen. Erik then pulled back, and Louise almost spoke up, making Erik put a finger on her lips.
"Do not question it. Do as you were told. Everything will become clear tomorrow. And you have nothing to worry about, other than getting a good night sleep, ok?" Erik said, seeing tears in her eyes as she nod. Erik patted her shoulders and stood up.
"You'll protect her, right Saito?" Erik said, getting a nod from the Japanese boy.
"Of course Erik. Whatever you're doing, I hope it works out." Saito said.
"They will Saito. Do you remember much of our world?" Erik asked, getting a nod from Saito.
"Yeah I do, why?" Saito asked. Erik grinned at what he was about to say.
"Two words Saito. Assassin's Creed." Erik said, getting some confused looks from the two. But a few seconds later, Saito widen his eyes and Erik held a finger to his mouth in a shush motion.
"That's all you need to know Saito, and I'll explain the nature of today's work when I get back. Keep her safe Saito, for I don't want another sister harmed, you hear me?" Erik said, walking away at the last line, not wanting to hear a response. Erik passed the shops, listening or any words of Stuffleburg or wandering merchant. He then passed a bar when he heard someone spoke about it, but it was a two guards in an alleyway, with a bottle in their hands. Erik crept up to them, wanting to see signs of drunkenness, and saw one of them drunk as a skunk while his friend had the bottle lightly.
"Come on man, like.. Hic.. I hear a merchant was robbing people blind with his wares. The nobility is gonna do nothing so why get... hic.. hung up on it?" Guard #1 asked, getting a angry scoff from Guard #2.
"Because my wife bought some toys for the kids and they had mold on them. It made them sick and now I have to work more to get the money for treatment. I just want to see some justice done for the little people you know, I'm getting sick and tired of not being cared by my superiors." Guard #2 said, not seeing Erik almost behind him with a rock in hand. Before the two can talk more, Erik threw the rock at the first guard in the head, knocking him out instantly, making the second guard tried to see the attacker. He tried turning, but he was grasped by the neck with an arm before seeing a blade near his face.
"Shout and I promise that you will lose more than your job, understand?" Erik said, getting a stutter from the guard.
"Pl..please sir, don't kill me. I have a wife and kids. My children are sick and need treatments." The guard said.
"I know. I heard what happen and you have my condolences. But what I want will benefit the both of us." Erik said.
"What do you mean?" The guard said.
"That merchant you and your friend spoke of? He gave my new blacksmith false metal and is now forced to close his shop. I'm hunting that merchant down to bring him in. Does that sound good to you?" Erik said, getting a shocked look from the guard, even though he can't see it.
"Of course! Because of him, my kids are bedridden and sick! I want justice for what he's done!" The guard said. Erik nodded and let him go. The guard face the man, only to see a soldier fully decked out in combat gear that belonged to a foreign country, with his face covered by a skull mouth bandana and his eyes covered by the shade of his tall helmet. The guard stood in wonderment of the strange uniform, when he was brought back by Erik.
"Ok then, since our interests are aligned, you help me with my hunt, I'll help you and your family. Deal?" Erik asked with a hand out
"Yes! You have a deal! Just please help my children!" The guard said pleadingly, shaking his once assaults hand. Erik nodded his head as the shake ended.
"All in due time, but it will be soon. Now, what of the reports regarding this merchant?" Erik asked.
"Some reports are older then a few days by now, but I heard that a family reported a washboard breaking just after using it a few minutes. Another was a forger that had a tool set that was completely worn out before even using them. These two are the one's today and the two live close to here, just down this road here. Is that enough for your search?" The guard asked.
"No but it is a start. Perhaps I can ask around to narrow my search area. Thank you sir, you are helping me bring Justice to a greedy man. Now there is something you need to do for me now." Erik said.
"What do you need?" The guard asked.
"Wake up your partner after I leave, the shock from the attack should sober him up enough to carry out what I need you to do. After you wake him, report to your commander that the one responsible for these incidents is being hunted down now and will be brought in tonight at the city gates. Do you understand this order?" Erik said, getting a nod from the guard.
"Yes sir! I shall do as you ordered! But the commander will need to know who is hunting Stuffleburg." The guard said.
"Of course, tell them that 'The Hessian Soldier' has heard the cries of the common people and have answered the call to deliver justice." Erik said, getting a nod from the guard.
"Yes sir, I shall tell them so! May Brimirs light guide you." The guard said, getting a nod from Erik as he rummaged through his pocket and tossed what he had in it. The guard grabbed what he was given and saw the contents inside, shocked of finding gold coins that has more than two payments on being a guard of the city.
"That should be enough for your kids and whatever your family needs today. Consider this an kind act by the Hessian Soldier, the champion of the commoners." Erik said tipping his helmet to him, turning away to walk out the alleyway and he left to start asking questions.
2 hours later
After 2 hours of speaking to the victims of the 'goblin merchant', he narrowed his search pattern by a few miles of the city that housed the commoners since no nobles buy anything from them. He walked up to an inn that had a crowd forming at the entrance. He brought out his pistol and fired. The effect was immediate as the rowdy crowd suddenly screamed in shock, stopping to see the one responsible. Erik then put his pistol in his holster and walked up to the attention of the crowd, to see a man clutching his shoulder that was bleeding from a wound. He then knelt down and held the hand the man held on his shoulder tighter, since the shock of the pistol had him slacking the pressure needed to stop the blood flow. The man hissed in pain as Erik turned to a woman who was wearing a maid uniform.
"Return here with a bucket of hot water, cloths, a sewing needle, string and some heavy liquor. We got a man bleeding out here." Erik said sternly. The maid got out of her shock to run inside to get the materials she was told to get. Erik then turn his attention to the man he was helping.
"Do you know who did this to you?" Erik asked, getting a nod from him.
"Yeah I do. It was that damn merchant that came last week, selling his poor products to us commoners. I went up to him and spoke my mind, and after a few minutes of yelling, he pulled out a knife and stabbed me. The man went back on his wagon quickly and ran off, leaving me here to bleed out or the guards to find me. Thank you for helping me. You really should leave before the guards come and see what happen ." The man said, getting a shake from Erik.
"Do not worry about me, good sir The guards will have plenty to worry about once this merchant is brought to justice, seeing that the nobility didn't care to bring him to justice." Erik said, seeing the maid return with the items. He then looked around to see a doctor coming into view. Erik motion him to come here and the doctor knelt down beside him.
"What happened?" The doctor said.
"Knife wound, looked like it severed an artery. We have to close it up before he bleeds out. You got a stable hand?" Erik asked, getting a nod from the old doctor.
"Indeed. I may be old, but my hands are as if they never wavered for the last forty years. What do you plan to do?" The doctor asked.
"I plan to close the artery before we close up the wound, but first you got the bottle?" Erik said, turning to the maid. She nodded yes as she handed the bottle to him. Erik then held it near the man.
"You a drinker?" Erik asked, getting a shake from him.
"No sir, my wife will kill me if I did." The man said, getting a chuckle from Erik.
"Then you best pick your poison now, your wife or that wound?" Erik said, getting the man to think on it, before he motion his head toward the bottle. This got a smirk and a smack on the shoulder from Erik.
"Good man. Bottoms up." Erik said as he opened the bottle and stuffed the opening in the man's mouth. The man did his best to chug it down as he down it all in one go. Erik saw the contents emptied out and bought the bottle out. The man breathed in heavily at the near suffocation of his first chugging a drink before letting out a big burp. The man looked embarrassed at himself, before feel a pat on his shoulder.
"A compliment to the brewer, yes?" Erik said, getting some laughs from the crowd. Erik then let go to rip the shirt arm where the wound was.
"Alright, after cleaning up the blood, you two hold the flesh back enough for me to close up the artery." Erik said as he pulled out a special blade he has on hand. The doctor and maid wondered how as they did as they were told after the maid washed the blood off his arm.
"How are you gonna do that? The wound is deep and your hands can't fit enough to stitch it up." The doctor said.
"I'm not gonna stitch up..." Erik said as he pull a 1 by 12 inch blade that glowed red. The crowd let out shocked gasps at what it was, hot metal. The man, the doctor and the maid looked at the blade with shocked looks.
"I'm gonna burn the wound shut. After that, you stitch up the opening and give him disinfectants with a syringe." Erik said as he grabbed an extra rag from the maid and presented to the man.
"When was the last time you and your wife had sex?" Erik asked, getting some blushes from the crowd and the man.
"We did one time, and we've been together for two years." The man, getting an incredulous look from not just Erik but from some people in the crowd.
"Well she better end that dry period today, cause I can bet some ladies here would be glad to have you in their bed tonight." Erik said, not seeing some girls behind him giggling behind their hands in agreement to what Erik said. The man did see the girls and felt his blush deepen while smiling, but that ended when Erik presented him the rag.
"Bite down hard. You don't want the whole city to hear you right?" Erik said, getting a chuckle from the man as he opened his mouth to receive the rag. After seeing that the man bite down the rag, Erik then position the blade near the wound. Erik looked at him and nod, getting a nod in return, and he plunge the blade into him. The effect was immediate as the crowd gasped in horror of the man's stifled screams in pain of the most painful part of cauterization. Erik slowly touch the blade where the artery was and edged around it to burn it together. This continued for a few minutes before Erik pulled it out, seeing him passed out from the pain.
"Ok, wipe away the blood, stitch him up and give him a shot. The hard part is over, he'll live." Erik said standing up, looked to the crowd and saw a woman crying her eyes out. He mentioned her to come here, and she did. Erik gave her a hug and whisper in her ear. She nodded a few things before her face went deep red at what he told her, before she looked away with a red faced blush, smiling a nod, before saying yes with her eyes closed. Erik patted her back and let go of the hug, to see the man opening his eyes to see his wife.
"Julia?" The man said, getting the wife to bail her eyes out as she tackled him.
"Jack! Sob* Sob* I was so worried!" The wife named Julia said while crying. Erik smiled at the man named Jack was holding his wife Julia in his arms. He smirked at wondering how he would react to being a man with more than one women in bed soon.
"Well Jack, my work is done. Keep an eye on the wound, make sure it doesn't get infected ok?" Erik said, getting a nod from Jack.
"Will do sir." Jack said, getting a nod from Erik. He turned to the doctor and tossed him a pouch of gold to him.
"Consider all future treatments for Jack paid in advance. Whatever he needs to keep that arm from rotting off is his, yes?" Erik asked, getting a shake from the doctor.
"Of course sir, but you really are too kind. What would the nobility think if they heard what you did for us?" The doctor said.
"I care not for the thoughts of the nobility who stand and watched you suffered by this merchant. All I care for is the people's respect and the nobles who know your pain, but could do nothing about it. Everyone else...is my enemy...and their worst nightmare." Erik said, getting shocked gasps from everyone. Jack and Julia stared in shock at what they heard, and Jack had to know.
"Who...who are you?" Jack asked.
"I am... the Hessian Soldier. The Champion... of the Commoners" Erik said, and saw everyone's eyes widen and mouths dropped. He then heard some guard coming and he walked to them, seeing the two guards Erik met today.
"What happened here?" The guard captain demanded.
"The goblin merchant has wounded one of the people here. The merchant is now considered to be armed and dangerous. Mobilize the city guards to close off all escape routes out of the city, even the sewers. This man is to be brought to justice today." Erik ordered getting a sword hiss from the captain.
"And who are you to demand me of this, peasant!?" The captain said, unsheathing his sword wand, about to arrest him. Erik saw the captain about to slice him and grabbed the sword wand by his clawed hand, much to the shock of everyone there. Erik then twisted his hand to break the balance of the captain, pulling him forward to grab his neck with the same clawed hand, lifted him up and slammed him into the ground. Everyone stood and watch as the captain stared in shock of what happen, before seeing Erik come into view.
"Do I need to repeat myself, Captain?" Erik said, releasing a deadly aura only the man could see. And Erik saw the mage stared in shock before dumbly shakes his head. Erik nodded and address the guards.
"You have your orders! Get it done!" Erik yelled out, making the guards salute him.
"Yes sir!" The guard yelled before scrambling to every gate, well, and sewer tunnel to prevent the man's escape. Erik then held out a hand to the captain and he grabbed it.
"Head to the palace to let them know what happened here, and that the man responsible for this will bring in the 'goblin merchant' to justice." Erik said before he walked off. The captain wanted to know who this man was.
"Hold it!" The captain yelled out, stopping Erik in his tracks.
"Who are you?" The captain asked, seeing Erik turned his head to see his eye.
"The Hessian Soldier. Champion of the Commoners." Erik said before walking to a jog before sprinting off. The captain stood there agape, not seeing the two guards Erik met today walking behind him.
"Now you believe me, Captain?" The guard asked.
"Yes... I do son." The captain said, before turning to them.
"Head to the main city gate and let them know what's happening. I'll head to the palace to let the Queen's guard know what's happening. You have you orders" The captain said, getting salutes from the two.
"Yes sir!" The guard said before running off. The captain then turned to see Jack and Julia holding each other smiling, with the doctor and maid left to do there captain turned to walk away, ready to finally put this 'goblin merchant' to the dungeons as his brother bought a poisoned drink from this man and died from it. Ever since then, he wanted justice like the others, but the nobles denied any kind of search for this man, thinking that it's the commoners fault for doing business with him. That made him mad that day, but he accepted it like always and did his job. But now someone is doing something about this terror and the captain couldn't help but join in. And thought about the repercussions of the nobles failure to do anything, while a commoner did do something. He shuddered at the thought of a commoner riot happening in the capital, but he pushed that away and did his work, praying to Brimir that won't happen.
Nothing could prepare the people of Halkeginia for the rise of the Hessian Soldier, the champion of the commoners, the nightmare of greedy nobles, and the leader that brought about more than one kind of revolution, that changed their lives, and the destiny of the world forever.
