SAGA:- JOURNEY TO SUN RISE
Chapter:-004
---->The fragments
After the ceremony was over, Hon and Sundal held a personal party together where mica, coco and Xusxes were having booze and meat.
Hon and Sundal holding beer mugs were dancing and singing, Coco and Xusxes were doing a staring contest, mica was cooking and brewing beer.
After that day the next day Sundal summoned all of them and told.
"Look children, I have a task for you all."
All of us seemed to be confused, and some weren't even paying attention.
Hein was looking at Gunbo's swords, scyures was yawning, Zarita was eating a rolled chicken burrito or something.
I and Myale were listening to him, he said we had to reach a place called "The peak where sun stands." I have a idea of it from a book I read.
It can be reached with a compass who was divided by Sundal very long ago into four pieces and only he knows where the pieces are.
"Well..I forgot the exact location but I think it was in the 1st Valhala, 1 piece is without any doubt with the current phrosatias. Other three are scattered accross the region."
"Well You all will get a reason to roam around your land for a while. How many days are you going to stay in these four walls anyways?"
Then he handed us a map, marked possible locations of the compass.
Our parents had already left for the place they were planning trip to. The palace was under charge of 7 mages until we return.
Our group had, Me, Myale, scyures, Zarita, Hein, Gunbo.
We left the palace with no carriages or bags to carry. We have to survive on our own. So our journey begins now, we are crown squad.
...
"Hey Lan! How long are we gonna walk?" Scyures was rustling through grass as he looked around.
Green plains and a steam engine train's track was in the way.
"Folas! Just gotta cross those tracks!" Lanmyth sighed and ran his thumb nail over his forehead throwing a sweat on ground.
"What's that folas this! Folas that?.'' Zarita juggled her feet over the uneven ground.
"It's now always resting in his tongue." Scyures answered in turn of Lan.
"Huh! Hghh! Hghh!." Gunbo was tired from weighing the swords.
"Hand me the swords, catch a breath." Myale offered Gunbo a hand.
"No..I am.. the sword of king. I have to." Gunbo was swayed his feet through large grass as the crown that held the whole country on it's knees was hanging from gunbo's sword handle.
"Why don't you wear that crown?" Zarita asked.
"It's heavy and the metal gets hot in sunlight." Hein panted a bit and then rustled further.
The soil was giving earthly smell, the four were alright as because of their abilities but gunbo and Hein were exhausted.
Train tracks came in the vision as Myale lent her back to Hein and carried him further, Scyures took the swords from Gunbo to let him catch a breath.
There was a cabin at the tracks so they thought to take a rest.
As even those four were feeling fatigue. They entered the cabin from a wooden floor, creaking near the door. Lan knocked at the door.
"FOLAS!...Anyone here?!" No response came as from his knock the door creaked and opened.
There was nothing but a little dirty wooden floor, a window and a earthen pot with most likely water in it.
All of them went it, as the mightiest swords of kingdom and the highest authority crown were being washed by the pot water and dried in sunlight while the four got a system message.

And then a warning went on their screen.
[A PIECE OF ADIVE:- DON'T TRY TO DIE BECAUSE THE ABILITY TAKES A BEHEMOTH AMOUNT OF TIME.]
Lan grabbed the mug and drank water. Scyures was adjusting his inventory, Zarita was swinging her blade in backside or the cabin. Gunbo was asleep, Hein was reading his magic spells book.
Then a voice came in the cabin. "Guys looks like we got some trouble here!" It was zarita.
Hein was ordered to stay in, as alp three went out with a thud impact.
All four were armed with swords and as they saw a man in red robe, long crimson scarf and long ponytail like a samurai.
Brown loose sweatpants and a sword.
"Hey who are you and Why are you infiltrating my place?" The swordsman unsheathed his half-broken sword as in a blink of an eye.
All four's heads were separated from their bodies. The swordsman saw a kid come out of cabin rubbing his eyes, he was wearing a crown.
"Only a king should wear a crown. That's disgusting disrespect to my nation." The swordsman charged at Hein aiming to split him vertically half from the crown.
As his sword was pitch black that could even cut through diamond.
The moment his sword touched the crown, it snapped!
Swordman's eyes widened in shock because only the true crown could withstand that blow. And then he was caught in fear, because the people he killed could be the royals.
If that was just a thing, he could've escaped or eloped. But..he heard from his behind some unnatural, heavenly, hellish, otherworldly noises that sent hundred folds chills down his spine.
[THE ABILITY "RE:CONSTRUCT REFINEMENT" IS ACTIVATED. YOU HAVE BEEN RECONTRICTED CONGRATULATIONS!!]
[Your body is now refined. It is resistant to nearly any type of slash attack]
Lightning sparks came, from atom by atom a new body was constructed as the important organs like brain and heart was extracted from previous body, clothes wee made from nano bots and the body was glowing with white-blue lights.
[ THE ABILITY "PHOENIX'S ASHES" IS IN EFFECT. YOU HAVE ROSE FROM YOUR ASHES AND GAINED A BLESSING OF PHOENIX]
[You have gained fire resistance that protects you from fire to a high limit]
Fire emerged from ground turning grass dry-black and a blinding light was coming as a person rose from flames.
[THE BLESSING "HEAVEN'S MIRACLE" IS USED. YOUR PRESENSE IS NOTICED BY HEAVENS]
[You have been granted a Double edged heavenly Axe]
A white-golden light came from sky as a long double-edged sharp golden axe descended on ground with a golden light forming a person's body.
[THE ABILITY "DAWN AT THE DUSK" HAS DRAWN YOUR SOUL FROM HELL. YOU HAVE BEEN GRANTED A NEW RACE]
[Your new race is "Grunch sapeins" which suits your personality and build]
A shadow rose from ground with black fog killing all the grass and flowers around it. A body rose from ground, similar to of a women but with big upward curved horns and golden bangles at their grow points. A curvaceous body. Ram horned, thick thighed, Buxom, Sultry eyes. A crop top of pale red, and a matching ver-short skirt. A black thigh band on right leg and pink-red cheeks. With a feral-killing-shredding-deadly expression on face.
