Chapter 3: Just Another Monster Battle on the Way to School
Tennarts: School of Magic, Military, and Adventurers is the best school in the country. Tennarts just doesn't teach thing about those three things. I mean it is still a school, so it still has to teach it's students Math, Language Arts, Science, and History.
What country does Manuel live in? The country of Eswana. Eswana is the biggest, and most wealthiest country on the continent of Togend. Eswana has a rich history of racist against Demi-humans. Eswanians a.k.a the citizens of Eswana are known to force Demi-humans into slavery. All though, it's mainly the rich that do so.
Anyway, it's been a couple days since they left. Manuel, and Lura are camping the night away in the woods, with a mice campfire going. Then Cobain says, "I'm not going to use the name Manuel Cobain any more."
Lura asks, "So what are you going to change your name to?"
Manuel thinks it over for a couple seconds, and replies, "I know... I'll go by Kirito Cranel Uzumaki."
Lura says, "That is a wonderful name Manuel-sama."
Kirito sweat drops, and says, "Lura drop the "-sama" suffix. Plus I just told you that I'll be called Kirito from now on. So call me Kirito. Okay, Lura?"
Lura, with a huge smile, answers, "Okay, Kirito-san!"
Just then a huge bear comes into their camp. Kirito shoots a lightning bolt at the bear, slightly shocking the mighty beast. Lura notches some arrows, letting them fly into the shoulder of the bear. A growl rips from the bears throat, as the arrows hit their mark. Which allow Kirito to unsheathe his sword, and slashes a paw of of the mighty bear.
The mighty, and very angry bear gets up on it's hindlegs, allowing Lura to riddle it's chest with arrows. Kirito then goes to finish the bear off only for a small army of fifty skeletons charge him. He then says, "Inazuma konekuta (Lightning Connector)!" Lightning then shoots from Kirito's left palm, and hits the closest skeleton. Then the lightning starts to spread to the rest of the skeletons; electrocuting them to death.
Sadly Kirito got slashed by the bear's claws in the chest, destroying the chest armor. Kirito then rushes the bear only to be tackled by an ogre. Lura peppers the green giant with arrows. Kirito then puts his left palm up to the ogre, and says, "Kuroi hibashira (Black Fire Pillar)!" A huge pillar of pitch black flames scorch the ogre, burning it to ash.
Reaffirming his grip on his sword, Kirito rushes the bear once again, with Lura shooting arrows from cover. Then one Lura's arrow shoots through an arrow aimed at Kirito. Cranel instantly stops, and turns to the side to see another arrow flying towards his head. Lura then goes to shoot another arrow, but finds her quiver empty. Lura then says, "Mana Arrow!" As Lura pulls back on her bow string, pure Mana condenses, and gets shaped into an arrow. She then finds the archer, and shoots him in the head. As that happens, Kirito raises his sword, as splits the arrow in half. Kirito then spins around, aims, and throws his sword straight between the bear's eyes, but it barely does anything. Kirito then jumps forward, and smashes his palm into the hilt of the sword, channeling his lightning magic through the sword. The result? The mighty bear gets shocked to death.
Kirito then remove his sword from the bear, cleans it, and he then sheathes it. Lura then begins to walk towards Kirito, with a smile on her face. But the smile fades, as she it hit with an arrow straight through the heart. She then coughs up some blood alerting Kirito. Kirito looks at Lura as she falls to the ground dead.
The Uzumaki then rushes toward her. To Kirito after his mother died, Lura filled the gap. She was also his first crush. Lura was the only one to give him presents. Lura also comforted Kirito after every beating. Kirito then screams out in anguish, despair, and sadness. His Mana, pure Mana then starts to leak out. It's color? Pitch black. Kirito's Mana then explodes out of him making everything a twenty foot crater underneath, and around Cranel.
Everyone, and everything on this planet has Mana. Mana is one thing thing that follows the "Color Rule". Usually royals have more Mana, while commoners have less, but the strength, and density is what determines the color of one's Mana supply. Most commoners don't use their Mana so their color is usually Yellow. Regular royal's Mana color is blue. Yellow is the weakest. It then transitions to Orange, Red, Blue, Purple, and finally Black. Usually humans don't get above Blue colored Mana. All though some humans have gotten Purple colored Mana, but it's super rare for a human to have that color of Mana. Black is usually reserved for high-powered Demons; like Demon Generals, the Demon Lord, and his Queen. Special weapons like holy weapons have White colored Mana already inside them, and so do the Angels. All though Angels rarely visit the world below them, and right now Kami has prevented them with a law to go down to the world below them. Elves have Purple colored Mana. They rarely get any color past Purple, or under the color of Purple. These are just the standard colors. Usually Pink colored Mana represent a person with Angel ancestry. While Green colored Mana is for Demi-humans.
Sadly their is no Demon Lord anymore. He was killed in battle. With the Queen now leading the Demon species. Rumors, and prophecies say that a human boy with Black colored Mana will be born into this world, and be the next Demon Lord. All though it is just hearsay, but every Demon, even the Queen believes it to be true.
Kirito then grabs the quiver, and bow. He then ties the quiver to the side of his waist. With the bow crossing the sword. Cranel then uses what Earth Magic he knows to bury Lura, and walks out of the crater collecting her arrows as he goes. The Uzumaki finally gets out, and sees the Archer, who he thinks shot Lura dead. The Archer says, "I was aiming for you. My employer said that he wanted you dead, and to spare the elf whore! He said I could even have my way with it when you were dead, and that I could have it as my sex slave after that. You going to Tennarts was just a ploy to get you, and the elf whore away from the mansion. Your death was supposed to look like an accident."
This angers Kirito. No this pisses him off. Kirito channels his pure Mana into his sword, and body has he unsheathes it. Which gives his body, and sword a black glow around him. He simply asks, "WHO IS YOUR EMPLOYER!?"
With all of the Archer's ego, and arrogance, he replies, "Maccus Cobain, your father."
Kirito then in a single movement rushes past the Archer, decapitating the worthless piece of shit. He says, "Then I'll make it my personal mission to kill the piece of shit that is called "my father". Also, you talk too much. Decapitating Slice!" Kirito then swing his sword to get rid of the blood, and sheathes the sword.
Decapitating Slice is a move all swordsmen know. In reality it just a horizontal slash that is aimed at a person's neck. The move requires good aim, and even better swordsmanship. Sadly is is just one of the most basic, but devastating moves a swordsman, or swordswoman know.
Kirito then continues walking away. He decides to be a loner. Walk the country helping anywho needs it, and be the bane of the evil. It's what Lura would have wanted. But first he'd need to train.
Maccus is stronger than he looks. Power is nothing if you don't know how to use it; Maccus's favorite saying. Maccus is one of the known humans with Purple colored Mana, and most certainly knows how to use it. He wasn't a Grand General for nothing. Like what's next? Epic General? How about Awesome General? Maybe Amazing General? No takers, huh? Just Grand General, that's quite borish.
