The 10 Legendary Swords
Beginning of Battle

The front of a magnificent building became the site of bloodshed of two equally domineering military forces, but this battle was part of a civil war between a noble family of Ariville when an opposing party began to make a raid.

"It is unfortunate that in the reign of Duke Ariville there has been a revolt ..."

His name was 15-year-old Arav, he was not a person who happened to be in this place, nor was he someone who had planned such a great war.

Arav smiled faintly as around him were thousands of soldiers who had lost their lives, seeing a formidable warrior gallantly appearing before him.

"Young master, long time no see it looks like you're okay ..."

"You are ..." Arav remembers very well who this girl in front of him is a 12-year-old Masket.

Arav recalled that only Masket was willing to talk to him compared to other girls, but the appearance of Maskets in this place was not necessarily a coincidence.

"I thought you were a loyal bodyguard. Turns out I was stupid enough to think of you as a good person." Arav sighed as Masket smiled widely while bragging.

"Master misunderstood, I used to only carry out one command from someone ..."

Before Masket spoke any further, Arav drew his sword and silenced the girl's mouth as her opponent bounced against the rocks.

Masket was a ranged weapon user, not her skill in fighting so close that she was able to defeat Arav with a single strike.

"You think you can defeat me with just such an attack?! Rifle sighting!"

Maskat raised his hand, and it was seen that an object appeared after a bright blue light shone in a circular pattern.

Arav was no less surprised to see, which in the body of this girl was not the reason to create the distance or power that this girl had, he said, but the small balls spewed out by this weapon made it a little difficult to get close.

"Gunner class, it's very rare for someone to have this kind of ability in Ariville even in this country!" Arav laughed a little.

One by one the bullets that shot towards him were successfully evaded, Arav did not need much time to get close to Masket after observing carefully the shooting speed of the rifle which was slower than his attack.

"You ... How ..." Masket was stammered as she spoke, she had already fallen on the ground when the attack hit her body while her rifle was blown away, just far enough away from her current range of hands.

"Maybe it's time to finish you off ..." Arav smiled faintly at Masket who was showing a frightened reaction, he grinned widely when an idea flashed through his mind as he looked at the girl's innocent face.

***

"Repeated to our victory! I'm sure Duke Ariville has run away from this city, may have fled to another region once he heard about the victory of our troops!" The man named Aidyn opened his voice.

The entire dining room was filled with dozens of people who were each holding a glass of wine.

Indeed, after the war in Antansia ended, it is not uncommon for the victors to celebrate and arrest the losers before making slaves, not infrequently the girls were made concubines.

Maskets have been in this place since 1 minute ago, the reason not to go straight inside is because it is quite surprised to see this celebration.

"Mr Aidyn ... I have returned from the battlefield," Masket stepped forward into the room.

Her beautiful parasites make the lust of drunken people unbearable immediately glance at her, thinking that Masket is one of the comfort women.

Aidyn introduced, "You don't misunderstand me. He was a man of Arav's faith, but in fact my most loyal spies and never failed in the duties I have given, I ask you to honor him." The dozen nobles stopped glancing and bowed their heads after hearing Aidyn's explanation, "Masket, did you manage to kill that useless boy?"

"Before that I wanted to ask you a few questions ..." Masket looked at the curious Aidyn, as it was only the first time that his superiors had seen this unusual behavior of his subordinates, "Will master make this region peaceful and advance in the future with the killing of the son of the Duchy of Ariville ?"

"Just tell me he's dead in your hands! A hundred? A thousand? Even tens of thousands of pieces of silver I will give you as long as you keep your mouth shut after this and watch your speech! Understood?"

Masket nodded her head, feeling Arav's words were true but she wasn't completely sure yet, "He's dead in my hand, you don't have to worry because after being hit-"

Crick

"Something seems to be talking about my fake death?" Said a man gallantly entering after the door of the room suddenly opened.

The handsome man however was filled with wounds all over his body even the clothes he was wearing were covered in blood, but the people even the other nobles frowned as they discovered the unusual thing of the 15-year-old young man.

"Aravi?! Y-you're alive?" Masket was stuck in place while pointing hysterically at the figure of the fighter because she was sure Arav had been killed in his hand after receiving a gun shot some time ago.

Making Aidyn and a dozen other nobles throw cold gazes at Masket, it was the first time the girl failed to carry out the mission and disappointed many parties.

"Hm ... Interesting ... How does it feel to fail a mission?" Arav enters the room.

Although people considered his actions ridiculous for coming directly to the Aidyn residence without carrying a weapon.

"Sister Aidyn, what punishment would you give to someone who is not even capable of running" He stopped talking when suddenly a sword in Aidyn's hand pierced through his body.

Arav's heavy body immediately fell to the floor after observing the sword piercing his body.

"Whispering ... Which fool came to this place empty-handed facing me holding a weapon?" Aidyn made dozens of other nobles dumbfounded with his actions.

Masket was no less surprised to see the incident earlier, looking at Arav's body lying on the floor with trembling eyes, "Master ... I can explain to you what really happened! Please ... give me-"

"No need for an explanation anymore, the punishment for my subordinates failing to carry out the mission is to die in my hands ..." Aidyn was already in front of him, swinging a sword.

This man's sword swing in fact did not succeed in finishing the Maskets as he had done before, it was seen that the girl jumped with the help of mana in large numbers.

"Sir, please give me one last chance to make up for all this!"

"You ... Why just shut up?!"

Aidyn did not answer but instead gave orders to his subordinates.

Maskets fell down while behind him were some expert fighters who struck right on the back of his body.

Masket is not unable to keep up with these fighters but because the condition of his body is now in recovery period forced to make himself unable to exert all the strength to the maximum.

Aidyn watched the girl who was now on her knees shedding tears.

"You think you can fool me? Now has my loyal follower become a traitor?"

"No ... It's not! You misunderstood me!"

"Then? Can you explain all this?" Aidyn.

Maskets mouth was wide open but a word did not go out, finding Arav's body lying on the floor as if giving light showed an unexpected reaction.
