The Master Swordsman

"Yuki will reach a populous city so you have to hide your tails ..."said Asuma

Yuki: "Well ..." Yuki is using her ability to disguise her tails

the two of reached the town and it was marvelous and vigorous with a lot stores and market ,and this gave the impression to Asuma that this side quest will be easy and without any troubles.

"Yuki, try not to get lost so always stay by my side .... Okay?"

"Yes, I know, Mr. Asuma. I'm not a little girl ..."

"Yes I know so we'll take what we need and go quickly ..."Asuma said that with a huge grin on his face.

The two started looking for what they need in terms of equipment and food They pass by the blacksmith of the city

"Young man! You own a faded sword. What do you think of a new sword in addition to a 10 percent reduction?" the blacksmith said to Asuma offering him a deal he can't refuse ,but Asuma didn't need any new sword so he refused politely saying .

"No thanks, in addition, this is a special sword like it has never been seen before, so I don't need a normal one .."

"How dare you make fun of my work, who you think you are ? some sort of legendary swordsman , You said that your sword so special if it's really special show me how special it is .."

"Trust me, you don't want me to get it out of its sheath ..."

"I am asking you at once, show me your "special" sword !"

Asuma: " Well I warned you ,old geezer ..."

Asuma then took his sword out of the scabbard and the blacksmith's face changed from sarcastic to terrified ,and he screamed

"I can feel him trying to steal my soul!"

and Everyone turned to Asuma ,Someone even tried to get close but he started screaming while he was scratching his chest .

"I can feel my soul burning ..."The person screamed and cried in horror. It began to bleed as the skin peels off from frequent itching .

Yuki was terrified, while Asuma felt nothing like an inanimate object , Asuma looked at the frightened face of Yuki and imagined his daughter's face and that picture haunted him , because he knew that he's not a emotionless monster after all.

Asuma then returned the sword to its sheath and went to the injured person put his sword sheath over him.

Asuma casts a spell and the casualty stops screaming Asuma looked at the blacksmith and said .

"Have you seen what happens when you are deceived by yourself? This sword is not made in this world and the blood of the demons is mixed with it to the point where it becomes a thirst for more blood. It is not a weapon but a plague that I am associated with."

"In all my life I have seen two swords with this aura and strength, this and another one I saw years ago, whiter with a silver handle and red symbols ..."

"really old geezer !?, when did you see this sword and who was carrying it?"

"It was about fifteen years ago and it was carried by someone who called himself" the master of swordsmen. "I know that he founded an organization to kill strange creatures called" Hope of Mankind. "

"Thank you .."

"Do you know that sword, Mr. Asuma?"asked Yuki

"I definitely know him. It is one of the" pure soul "swords that was my sword and a master's sword before me. Now I want to retrieve it so that I can use it in my next battles ..

"But how will you find it, Mr. Asuma?"

"you are Wrong, my dear Yuki, I will not find him, but he is the one who will find me .."

"I didn't understand, Mr. Asuma ..."

"The swords of a good spirit possess a property which is that with much use and companionship they depend on the previous owner even after hundreds of years, and if this plan does not work, I will use the alternative plan .."

Yuki: "And what's this plan ?"

"You will know if my calculations have failed, and now let's speed up ...."

"Hey what about supplies?"

"We'll get them in the next city ..."

"What !? My feet are tired of walking. I want to rest, Mister Asuma .."

Asuma lifted Yuki over his back and starts jogging

¤ After several hours in a field

Yuki was sleeping on Asuma's back while he walked aside the field

Asuma said to himself: "I mean, after all these years, the sword has not disappeared completely. It was stolen that time as I thought. Who is this swordsman master? Brings me back memories smiling

73 years ago

an unknown said Sarcastically:"Are you ready, Asuma"the Disaster" Domin?"

"you talk too much so me what you got!" said the one hundred forty three years old Asuma
