Queen's Blade First Male Warrior!
(Gainos, Queen's Palace)
We see a strange looking figure wearing a pure-white armor standing on the balcony of the huge castle looking at the horizon beyond the city having some deep thoughts into his mind. What goes on his mind is something no normal person should have, wondering how much blood and lives will be sacrifice of lives will be down his dark path of the demonic.
"I see you're enjoying the view, Noir Coeur." A young woman said from far behind.
The black armor young man didn't respond or turn around, but he definitely know the young woman walking up to him.
The young woman has a cat ear-like headband on her head, and a metal eye patch on her right eye. She wears a bright red outfit, with belts going across the top of it. On her left arm, there are spikes protruding from her pauldron, and on her lower body she has red hip armor and a hidden blade set that functions as her undergarment. On her legs she wears red thigh-highs and interlaced bands with a beast engravement on her upper thighs, and wears metal heels with long spikes on the toe and heel. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
"I see you're had a good morning, my dear Alrda." The black armor man said.
"Yes, the bath was refreshing and the food the chiefs prepared was very excellent to my mouth. You should've had some, you might like them." Aldra said with a creepy, gentle smile.
"Sounds tasty, I may give that a try later." Noir Coeur said.
"…There's something very deep in your thoughts, is there?" Aldra asked, concern of her beloved.
"Yes. I could feel my blood going a little active, like something unexpected and exciting is going to happen soon." Noir Coeur said with a straight face though on the inside he's smiling widely sinister.
"Really? This should be interesting, could this possibly relate to this "old friend" of yours." Aldra asked.
"…Perhaps, he has been hunting me for a long time and he may be getting closer than he thinks, if this 'competition' allows it." Noir Coeur smirked.
"Competition… you mean the Queen's Blade Tournament?" Aldra asked wondering what's going on in Nori Coeur.
"Yes, you're the Queen who won twice, so you should talk to the Angels about 'bending' the rules a bit" Nori Coeur said before turning around and walking away.
Aldra didn't get it at first about bending the rules, then she begun to realize what Nori Coeur referring the rule that only female warriors can enter the tournament and it has always been like this for over a hundred years since the very first was made. Until now that is.
"I'll see that it'll happen, for you my love!" Aldra smiled.
"Glad to hear it." Noir Coeur said pulling a small smile walking in a dark hallway, thinking about getting himself those breakfast meal Aldra mentioned.
(Meanwhile, with Scar and Nanael)
"So, in other words: there's this Queen's Blade Tournament that happens every four years for warriors that only females can only enter and win to become Ruler of the whole continents until the next warrior claims the title, and so on." Nanael finished explaining everything to Scar about the Queen's Blade Tournament and all.
"I see, at least it's a good enough reason to believe you're not a spy for the demons." Scar said drinking a big cup of wince, even though he's underage he can drink these without having worry about getting drunk and hangovers as he seems to have high resistant to them.
"I'm surprise you can drink that, and you're 18-years-old." Nanael exclaimed.
"It just something I picked up during my journey training." Scar said simply before eating his piece meat.
Scar and Nanael are sitting down together in a small table in a restaurant, so that they can talk things out which Nanael suggested before Scar jumped to conclusion of accusing her being a servant to the demons that ruined his life all those years ago. Scar didn't want to listen at first since he was in a bad mood from the pathetic ambushed by the demons, but he did his best to calm himself down, so he can hear her out.
"Man, I never would have thought about meeting a strong male like yourself at such a young age. The only strong men I see nowadays are knights." Nanael stated surprise to meet someone like Scar.
"There are lots of strong warriors out there, men or women, everyone is strong depending on how you see it in action." Scar mentioned.
"Hmm, I see. Well, you sure show those demons how strong you are." Nanael chuckled nervously, seeing how Scar easily defeated them in one attack.
"Anyway, mind if I ask you something else?" Scar asked as Nanael listen in.
"Do you know anything about a monster named Noir Coeur?" Scar asked with death-serious look on her face.
"Noir Coeur?" Nanael confused. Doing some thinking if she ever heard that before somewhere along her work line whenever she's in either the Heavens or the earth. No matter how hard she thinks, she can't find anything about this Noir Coeur.
"Sorry, I don't know anything about this "Noir Coeur" fellow." Nanael apologized.
"That's fine, I was hoping to get a lead about him." Scar sighed before drinking his cup again.
After Scar and Nanael finished eating their food and leaving the restaurant they're walking together, thought Nanael is actually floating in the air near him as she decided to follow him for a while to see if anything exciting and unexpected happens that she'll want to see it herself.
She even laughs at herself thinking it could be like a male warrior like Scar is going to enter the Queen's Blade Tournament for whatever reason. Like something like that would ever happen.
Soon, the two found themselves outside of the city after Scar got himself some food for the trip to the next city and ate a few for the road.
"Well, quite the surprise to meet you all the way out here!" An erotic woman said coming out of hiding from behind a dead tree.
Woman appear before them is the same woman with the pet snake from earlier at that restaurant who tried to steal their money while the two other women he met were eating together. Her pet snake is still on her thighs acting like her underwear which is creepy to Nanael and Scar simply doesn't care.
"Hey there, handsome!" Echidna smirked as she licks her lips sexily.
"Eww, don't you carry any REAL underwear with you?!" Nanael grossed out seeing the snake as it stares back at her, making her feel uneasy. Echidna ignore her as she approaches Scar while swaying her hips a bit.
"Looks like you pick yourself a little cutie pie along the way." Echidna noticed acting like she has just notices Nanael now.
"Hey!" Nanael snapped.
"Just a little pipsqueak I found, and she's just started following." Scar said making Nanael snap at him too.
"Well, I don't mind an extra company, I hope we can get to know each other… a little… more." Echidna said wanting to seduce Scar with her sexy charm. Though it doesn't seem to be working on him.
"What exactly do you want?" Scar asked brushing her hand from his cheek.
"Oh, a hard-to-get guy, I like that." Echidna winked at him, showing she's not giving up on him.
"Anyway, you just seem very interested: you have this 'dark' aura surrounding yourself, and something darker within. It just draws me to you matter how I try to ignore it." Echidna explained moving around Scar trailing her finger on his armor.
"(Gosh this woman is creepy, she's not a demon but almost looks like she's been drawn by the Brand of Sacrifice.)" Nanael thought, being creep out by Echidna's personality.
"I was thinking about traveling with you for a while, wanting to see how things will go and what kind of storm you could bring." Echidna stated her reason of meeting up with Scar.
"You sure about that, being close to me can lead nothing but death in the end." Scar warned not wanting others to be in serious danger because of him.
Nanael can understand that since he has the Brand of Sacrifice on his that can draw in demons coming after him like a vicious hunting season without any kinds of rest whatsoever, she even wonders how is that Scar is able to live through the harsh ship of having the mark for who knows how long. Not that she's scared of fighting against demons and winning easily or anything, she just hopes it doesn't draw in powerful that maybe out of her league.
Echidna look into Scar's eyes giving him a sign that means she's coming with him no matter how much danger the journey is along the way. She's seem determined to see this through to the very end.
Scar knew that this woman won't take no for an answer and not even thinking about killing her too since she doesn't exactly seem like a bad person or anything.
"Alright, fine. You can come along, but I'm not responsible for you lives." Scar said telling them to pull their own weight including in fights.
"Fine by me." Echidna shrugged.
Just as the three were continuing their way.
"Hey, you three lowlifes!' A young woman voice called in an insulting way.
They saw the woman who called out to them coming while riding on a horse.
She is a beautiful young woman in her late teens with long blonde hair and light-blue eyes. She wears a revealing outfit, with a white bow around her neck and a blue breastplate, and silver hip armor. On her arms she has lace sleeves, with her right arm unarmored, and lace thigh-highs with silver greaves. Carrying a long spear in her hand that has a large white cloth wrapped around on it. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
"You three, you either of you poor folks have seen a woman named Leina Vance around here." The cat-like girl asked rudely.
"I hope that girl know she's talking to an Angel." Nanael glared at the newcomer.
"You're blocking my way, move it or get hurt." Scar threatened.
"How dare you speak such tone at Elina Vance, Captain of the Vance Royal Guard." Elina introduced herself in a high and mighty tone like she's an important person or something.
"Vance, huh? Oh, I actually remember meeting a girl with the name Leina, Scar also met her as well." Echidna blurted, on purposely provoking Elina.
"WHAT?! So, you have seen her. Where is she, tell me now!" Elina demanded pointing her spear at Scar.
"Look lady, I don't give a damn of who you're looking. If you ain't moving out of the way, then I'll just have to force you to." Scar threatened again reaching for his sword.
"Foolish man dares to challenge the Vance family will lead you to death!" Elina snarled getting off the horse and readying to engage in combat.
Nanael suddenly felt something coming through her head as she's getting a call from the Head Angel herself, she gasps of the shocking news her boss is telling even though it shouldn't be possible. She wanted to protest but knew that she can't go against the Head Angel's divine order and flew above the two warriors.
"Alright everyone, it looks like were about to have ourselves a battle participating for the Queen's Blade! And this isn't just any battle; this year's tournament we will have the first male warrior: Scar the Black Swordsman vs Elina Captain of the Vance Royal Guard!" Nanael announced as a giant magic dome forms around the whole area and magic spears appears in places for anyone in the country to watch the fight, including all the other female warriors who are entering the Tournament are watching this in shock and wonder what this fight will bring.
"What is the meaning of this, males are never allow in the Queen's Blade!" Elina shouted at Nanael.
"Tell that to my boss, she got word from the Queen Champion herself to allow this!" Nanael replied at Elina.
"What, but why would she"
Hey!" Scar cut off Elina questioning Nanael. "Are you that scared to fight against a guy, how pathetic." He mocked the young warrior.
"What?!" Elina angered. This guy is going to regret to have ever cross path with her.
"That's it, you're dead!" Elina declared pointing her spear at him.
"Looks like both fighters are ready to duel, and now: FIGHT!" Nanael shouted beginning the fight.
(Music-Ranga the Bloodedge Theme OST)
Elina made the first move charging at Scar with the intention of killing him on the spot thinking this guy has nothing on her when it comes fighting on the battlefield. However, she will learn the hard way to never judge a book by its cover as Scar instantly swing his giant sword to the side pushing the spear away from within the range of the blade and brought his sword up above his head. Elina starts thrusting her weapon into a rapid piercing barrage though Scar quickly brought down his Dragon Slayer to block the attacks and kick her in the stomach pushing her back a few feet.
"(What? Is that giant rod of iron a sword, and he can use like a normal sword?)" Elina thought in shock then she dodges a downswing attack from Scar creating a big dust cloud.
"Oh my, such speed and strength, it's make me feel good from just watching him." Echidna said lustfully.
Elina tries to prepare herself to strike again, but Scar burst out of the cloud at blinding speed that she couldn't react in time as she got herself punch in the face sending her crashing to a tree.
Elina groan in pain from the punch and she notice that he left his weapon implanted to the ground as he seems to continue fighting bare-handed, making her feel like she's being insulted.
"An unwise decision leaving your weapon, now you're going to die!" Elina shouted with rage charging at Scar again.
"Really, I think it's the other way around." Scar claimed as he caught Elina's spear with one hand shocking her. She tries to pull her spear away, but it would seem Scar's grip is stronger.
"Now, why don't you have a nice catnap." Scar said before slamming his fist down on his opponent's head so hard it knocks her unconscious as she fell face first to the ground.
"Whoa, he won!" Nanael said to herself before going back to the announcing job. "And the winner is… Scar!" Nanael announced.
(Music End)
"Well, well, looks like this Queen's Blade is going to be very exciting!" Echidna smirked looking at Scar getting his sword placing back on his back.
(Gainos)
"Good, very good, I'll be waiting for you. Scar." Noir Coeur said with an evil small evil looking at the display spear in the sky showing the whole fight to the end.
KO a new chapter is finish and hope you all enjoy it!
Scar has won his first battle for the Queen's Blade Tournament as he'll face other female warriors along the way as it was set up by a very dangerous person who seem to know very well of Scar that he would ask Aldra the Queen to allow him to participant in the first place. Scar will have to prepare himself for whatever battle that may come in his way.
Noir Coeur is the main villain of the story who is Scar's enemy and an OC I made up, he also seems to have a love relationship with Aldra as you'll later see why. His is French for Black Heart or something like that.
Looks like Echidna made her own move on Scar wanting to get him more and getting closer to him, in physical terms you could say.
