The Blade of Vengeance

As Nahusha and Kark journeyed together, their friendship grew stronger with each passing day. Time became their ally, healing Nahusha's injured leg and honing their skills in combat. They trained tirelessly in sword fighting and strategy, with Nahusha excelling in close combat and Kark proving his prowess in archery. Their bond was unbreakable, and they faced the challenges that lay ahead as a formidable duo.

Amidst their shared dreams and aspirations, Kark harbored a longing for a peaceful life. He yearned for tranquility not only for himself but also for his dear friend Nahusha. However, Nahusha was consumed by his thirst for vengeance. Blinded by his burning desire, he relentlessly pursued the path of retribution.

At the age of 17, Nahusha arrived at the doorstep of the nobleman who had once enslaved him and caused his mother's death. Without hesitation, he unleashed his fury upon the nobleman's entire family, wielding the blade his father had gifted him and hidden beneath a tree in their abandoned village. The blade, now sharpened and gleaming, served as an instrument of his vengeance.

After exacting his revenge, Nahusha and Kark fled to the neighboring Anga kingdom, seeking refuge from the turmoil engulfing their homeland, Mansaya. The Mansaya kingdom was in chaos, torn apart by the repercussions of the nobleman's demise, as he had royal blood flowing through his veins. In Anga, they found temporary respite, but their journey was far from over.

A year passed in the realm of Anga, and destiny brought Nahusha and Kark face to face with the mercenary group that had vanquished the notorious "Never-Dying Demon" responsible for the merciless slaughter in Nahusha's village. Determined to confront his family's killer, Nahusha engaged in a fearsome one-on-one battle. With unwavering determination, he struck down the Never-Dying Demon, finally avenging his loved ones.

News of Nahusha's triumph spread throughout the kingdom, and he became known as the "Demon Executioner." Despite his fearsome reputation, Nahusha maintained a strict code of honor. He vowed never to raise his blade against innocent civilians, earning him admiration for his unwavering morals.

Inspired by their experiences and their desire to make a difference, Nahusha and Kark formed a mercenary party. They embarked on various missions, taking on jobs that aligned with their principles. Together, they carved a path of righteousness in a world steeped in darkness and chaos.

This chapter, "The Blade of Vengeance," illustrates Nahusha's relentless pursuit of retribution, the growth of his friendship with Kark, and their emergence as honorable mercenaries. Their journey would test their resolve and shape their destinies, leading them towards unforeseen encounters and unforgettable battles.
