The Legend of the Sword of Freedom
Start new training


Right after the departure of Fenti and Tang woo the atmosphere of the house suddenly became very quiet. There was not a single sound of conversation between them, all of them silently silent without a sound. They don't know what to do next after this. Because everyone already considered Tang woo and Fenti as the pioneers of their lives.


Children lose direction and purpose. There was no place for them to joke around like they used to, or do the exercises together again. But despite the weight they must continue to step up to achieve their respective dreams although not necessarily but the opportunity is not zero. They can meet again, although they are uncertain.


In the afternoon the day after the departure of the two. They start moving on their own to do what they want. Yeonhee returned to the front yard and trained her magic back while the other four children went to the back shed.


The four of them went into the warehouse where the weapons were stored. Fenti and Tang woo often went to this place to retrieve weapons that would later be used for hunting. Hao ma was the first to invite the four of them to go to the warehouse and the rest just followed suit as they still did not accept if Tang woo and Fenti left.


Shortly after they entered the warehouse a pungent smell was smelled from within, the smell like carcasses smelled very pungent there. But that smell is not a big deal. Then they looked at the contents in the warehouse.


'Everything looks like just a weapon here, a room with no illumination like this how the seishou can see and get a weapon here.' Alvitar thought as he continued to look at the other weapons.


"Our goal here is to find weapons to use for hunting, because seishou no longer exist we have to find food ourselves. Look for the weapons you want." said Hao ma who was at the front.


Rusty axes, rusty swords, arrows and arrows, crossbows, spears and other weapons were stored inside despite being almost all rusty. However it still remained strong and could be used to hunt in any weapon it contained a lot of bloodstains from the animals or beasts killed by Tang and Fenti.


"I'll take this spear, what about you guys?" hao Ma asked while looking back at the other children.


"I've never used a gun before, so I'd better be empty-handed."


All glanced towards Alvitar a moment after he said that. Because he's the only one who hasn't held a gun in his hand. While Ru tsung and Liey Gong were already holding arrows and swords.


"Don't say anything stupid, even if you're a genius you'll die in the woods without a gun in your hand. Basic level body arts would not be able to withstand a beast attack. Just take the gun you want."


Hao ma forced Alvitar to take the weapon for his own safety as well.


'I have the same wind-seed element as seisho. So it's better to just take the bow.' thought Alvitar. He then took the bow but he did not take the arrow.


"What are you doing? why don't you take the arrows?" ask Ru tsung.


"I can use wind magic to manifest arrows." replied Alvitar. He came out of the barn and was followed by the other children.


All the children came out of the barn and were ready to go hunting into the forest.


"Yeonhee .., I can't let you hunt without a weapon, at least take this sword with you just in case" Hao ma said as he gave the sword to her.


Hao ma's attitude suddenly changed after the departure of Tang woo and Fenti this morning. Hao ma was more mature than before, because even though they were the same age Hao ma was several months older than the three. Although it was basically not that he changed, because there was something else underlying Hao ma's change. One is thought, though, she thought that her current self acting without direction from Tang woo and Fenti would probably experience greater development than before because she could act more freely doing threatening exercises life in the extreme way he had. Hao ma thought that training at the risk of life would be more pronounced than home training as before.


They then walked towards the forest to hunt the beasts, because their food stocks inside the house were also exhausted.


"Hao ma, have you had any experience hunting in the forest before? why do you look so ordinary? the forest is where the beasts live did you realize that?"


Ru tsung was a little worried about Hao ma's decision.


"I know that, we go there also with the purpose of hunting. Look for weak beasts to eat and all do the exercises. That is our goal." Hao ma replied as he brandished his spear upwards.


Beasts are different from magical beasts, beasts are large animals that are used to being hunted animals, and magical beasts are animals that can use magic in their attacks or protect their bodies. The difference between the two was quite a significant magical beast much stronger than that beast was the absolute difference between the two.


"We can't rely on seishou anymore, as they've already left to do their duty. So from now on our goal is to survive and act on our own. And also in this hunt let's just say we're practicing using weapons. Because we'll do this often."


Everyone understood what Hao Ma said. Hao ma indirectly said that continuing to reflect on the departure of Tang woo and Fenti was useless. Do what they can now and keep moving forward.


Slowly they begin to throw off their naive thoughts of separation, and think more about the situation ahead.


Their current feelings were mixed, overwhelmed with worry, anxiety and fear of not being able to do anything if they met the beast later. But the thought seemed to disappear when remembering the tragedy 5 years ago where bloodshed and slaughter were everywhere.


Ru tsung, Hao ma, Liey Gong and Yeonhee. They used to be homeless people who stole every day just to make ends meet. The four of them lived together at that time. The torment, oppression, violence, and hard things in life they have all felt. But as long as they lived there was nothing more terrifying than the massacres of the time, where body parts splattered everywhere and the fishy smell of blood smelled stinging in the nose. It was the darkest event they had ever experienced in a lifetime. There is no day more terrifying than that.


During the few minutes of walking, they finally reached their intended place. The sound of wind hitting the trees, was clearly heard in their ears. The thick trees made them think twice about going inside. But they are not that weak, let alone obey their fear. All of them tightened their grasp on their respective weapons and rushed into the forest.
