Chapter 2: The Grandson of the Great Sage [ "02 the unknown king"] [1st Arc 'being Omnipotent under a cave']
No offense, but I kinda thought you'd be more of an ancient wizard." I say with raised eyebrows.
Shigemori chuckles lightly. "I am . But, there are very few of them that have mastered such a power and are so skilled at using magic as well."
He says, pointing to the small box containing the two items.
"Ahhh," I nod understandingly. "You're saying you've been able to train and control your ability for quite some time now?" I ask as I walk towards him.
He nods. "My powers are strong enough for my parents to make me training them. When they finally passed away, I was able to inherit the power." He looks up at me. "But I never really got rid of it, you know? I had it, but I could never use it because if anyone found out about it, or if I tried to use it without their permission, I would kill someone." He says." but... is'nt kinda cool to have op power" I said with a smirk." I mean, your gonna die soon anyways, might as well enjoy yourselves while can."
The man gives me a stern look. "It is not something to be played with. You should keep it contained inside you lest you lose your life trying to use it recklessly." I shrug.
"Well, I can't control that kind of thing, Shigemori. My father gave it to me; I don't exactly remember who my mother is. I never bothered to look it up, either."
The man shakes his head and laughs. "You do know you sound like you've already been through death multiple times. How old are you anyway, ten? You should be more respectful."
"Hey!" I exclaim indignantly. "I'm still young and pretty damn smart if you hadn't noticed! I have been around longer than any kid should ever have to go through, I betcha!" He laughs again and pats my back.
"I don't doubt that." He sighs. "Well then, what do you want to get out of all this? It sounds like a lot of fun." I shrug.
"What else? I guess we'll play the game for a bit then get to work on building our own kingdoms or something. "We have a kingdom...." I said looking down in slight embarrassment, "But it's not very big compared to the others. We have two armies, and only one castle. Our capital city is only slightly bigger than the village. And... We have no real enemies. and you are you the crown prince did you forgot or something..??"he said in confusion
.
I laughed, "Oh right, you don't know anything about my kingdom yet!"
"Then I'd suggest you show me the basics before I try to rebuild one of those cities."
I nodded. "Of course!" I turned around ready to lead him to somewhere where I think we could both sit and talk. As I began to take him to a place where we could sit down to discuss this stuff together,at the main door of king hall a soilder shouted " 9TH KING THE SUPREME DEMON TITLE HOLDER ASURA TEMPEST IS ENTERING THE KING HALL" I stopped and thought " ohh the king's name is Asura Tempest hmm..." as I started walking in the hall I noticed the king seat was empty as a guard asked me " would you like a tea your highness" I was shocked and said " aa.. ahhh.. are you new I am not a royalty" the guard was shocked and said " are you o... okay your highness you were declared the king on 17 May 1234 on 12:00" he said in a confusing way " whaat..t I am the current king?" "yes..s your majesty you came out of the late Queen's womb, the royal family has died out since your father and mother died during childbirth and then you were named the king, it's only been 1 day since you became king because of the rules for 'underage inheritance' , it's almost summer" He replied. I looked over at the and said " oh yeah, i didn't even notice it was that time of the year." I said scratching my head in embarrassment. The man seemed to understand my predicament because he just shook his head and walked away. I sighed and continued to follow the guards instructions, once I reached a large table sat by myself in the middle of the room. as the memories of the previous owner of this body flashed through my mind, I remembered how she used to tell me stories about the different kings and queens she met, and how she made everyone fall in love with her. my mothe..
"Hey, are you okay?" A voice behind me said startling me a little. I turned around quickly and saw the same male from earlier standing beside me. His eyes showed concern as well as a hint of curiosity. "Yea, sorry, i zoned out for a second..." I said looking down.
"Don't apologize, i tend to zone out too sometimes."
I chuckle slightly and smile at him. He seems nice. "So, what exactly is going on here?"
"We call it the King's Court, there are five levels. There are 5 different seats, 1 to every level. There's also a separate chamber off to the left side which is used for formal events."
He gestures to the side with his hand as he speaks "you should know all this things.... but it is ok it is your first day as a king." I nod my head slowly and smile shyly. "Do you want anything to eat? I could go grab you a tray." He offers.
I blush lightly. "Uh, yeah sure thanks..."
"Alright! Wait here I will be right back!"
He quickly walks away and I turn my attention to the empty throne sitting besides me. I wonder how the other kings were doing. They must have been doing great... I sigh softly and close my eyes hoping to stop thinking about them.
Suddenly there was loud yelling followed by several crashes. What happened? Did something attack them?
After a minute or two everything went quiet and after I had calmed down I decided to see if there was any danger. Slowly pushing open the doors to the King Hall I see guards lying around unconscious on the ground with arrows sticking out of their body.
I quickly ran down the stairs towards one of the bodies and kneeled next to it, checking their vitals. Luckily, they weren't killed instantly but they weren't far off. I stand up and glance around the area. Everything appears to be fine. No dead bodies, no signs of a fight.
I let out a breath and start to walk towards the exit when I suddenly feel someone grab onto my arm. Before I could turn around, I felt myself being pulled backwards. I gasped and struggled in their grasp.
"Let me go! You're hurting me! You're hurting me!" I yelled in fear.
Finally, they let go of my arm and I took a moment to catch my breath and regain my composure. Once I did, I spun around and faced the culprit. I growled and held up my hands in anger. "How dare you touch me!"
.
He didn't respond, only stared at me with an unreadable expression. Finally, he spoke and broke eye contact. "I was protecting you, I am your master you dumbass, did you forgot already I am your master Dorgthomoth Tempest 1st genral of Tempest army"
