Nagato Kagutsuchi: The Dawn
Ch. 50 - Heirloom Type Ancient Weapon: Water Sword
The day after the match practice, Grandpa Hyogoro was explaining to Nagato and Litha about the sword he used, while Kuina and Serlin were cooking for breakfast, Azai was training the man to do a small run, a high run, push up pat a hundred times, then do pairs of squats while training his kicks. After kicking Azai squatting back, the man repeated the gesture, kicking Azai alternately using his left and right legs. Because the benefits obtained by doing a squat kick like that is able to strengthen the thigh muscles and make our legs feel lighter even if we kick feels faster and lighter. But the side effects are quite felt on the thighs.
"This sword chose Grandfather as its user, this was included in the Heirloom Type Ancient Weapon: Water Sword!" Hyogoro's grandfather explained to Nagato and Litha.
"Water sword?" Litha stared at the sword that Grandpa Hyogoro was treating with by cleaning the blade of his sword.
"Yes the water sword, I heard in the world there are also fire swords, wind and others, this world is vast!" Hyogoro's grandfather smiled at Litha as the little girl was already used to her new residence.
"Grandfather Hyo, is there a holy water user in this empire?" nagato asked calmly to Grandpa Hyogoro.
"Holy water? I've never seen her, if someone who had opened the aura in her body and manipulated the basic elements, I've seen her like that snow woman!" reply Grandpa Hyogoro, but he had never directly seen the user of holy water, even he was very passionate in the Ezzo Continent there was one of the newspaper seller companies so that he could know about the outside world.
"This sword belongs to my father, is it included in an ancient weapon?" Nagato asked again but Grandpa Hyogoro was silent for a long time as if he did not want to answer Nagato's question.
"Your sword is the sword used by the ancestors of the Kagutsuchi Clan for generations, even before Pandu used it, it was stored in the residence of the Kagutsuchi Clan for hundreds of years, because no one who has the surname Kagutsuchi was chosen to be a swordsman!" Hyogoro's grandfather explains Pandu's sword to Nagato.
"The guide is the hope that the ancestors of the Kagutsuchi Clan have been waiting for for thousands of years, that's what I heard back in the day, even many people say that the Pandu has the body of the Fire God and nicknamed by the nickname Pandu Jelmaan the Fire God!" Grandpa Hyogoro stopped cleaning his sword then looked at Nagato.
Kagutsuchi Pandu is the reincarnation of the Fire God just like Shirayuki who is the reincarnation of the Snow Goddess.
"The sword recognizes you as the owner of Nagato, The Kagutsuchi clan once tried to find a user who matched the sword but none of them were chosen to be its owner even their hands burned while holding it!" Grandpa Hyogoro stared at the sword that was slung on Nagato's waist.
"If I become a disciple of Grandpa Hyo, I won't regret it!" inner Nagato with a smile after hearing Grandpa Hyogoro's explanation.
Litha looked at Nagato because the name Kagutsuchi was familiar to her, a clan whose name had once echoed throughout the Ezzo Lands, and none of them knew him. Nagato glanced at Litha who was staring at him then he touched the little girl's shoulder until Litha was shocked at Nagato's shock.
"Ma-Sorry ..., I was just curious about you?!" Litha turned her face aside.
"I'll tell you later!" Nagato smiled faintly at Litha.
It was not long before Kuina and Serlin came to bring food that was ready to be enjoyed. Grandpa Hyogoro stood up then he whistled while staring at the sky, before long the golden eagle came to Grandpa Hyogoro and perched on Grandpa Hyogoro's shoulder. The golden eagle is Grandpa Hyogoro's pet, his golden eagle has a dark brown fur pattern and gold pattern on the head to neck. It was this golden color that made him named the golden eagle.
"Great." muttered Litha when she saw the golden eagle on Grandpa Hyogoro's shoulders, while Nagato was amazed and felt like having a pet like Grandpa Hyogoro.
The eagle had a scratched right eye, then Grandpa Hyogoro took out a paper and wrote a message on the paper, after finishing writing the message, Hyogoro's grandfather folded the paper and stuffed it into a small bag at the foot of the white eagle.
"Kin, deliver this letter to Hawk!" grandpa Hyogoro orders Kin the name of his golden eagle.
Kin flew further away from their sight, Grandpa Hyogoro stared at the golden eagle with a smile. Nagato and Litha continued to look at the eagle that was flying freely in the air which was getting further and further away from the sight of the two of them.
