Dragust

'it should be right here' nic thought as he was standing infront of a metal door, the door was enormous, its had weird bomb patterns and was brown in color, it stood out amongst the white hall, and their was one giant rhino beastman standing as gaurd to the door, the beastman had thick skin and did not wear no armour, he held a battle axe by his side.

"young master nic" the beastman said as his small eyes widened, he then kneeled down causing the ground to shake from his sudden movements, "how may I be of your assistance young master" the beastman said while lifting himself up to speak to nic.

nic was annoyed by the way the beastman addressed him, but he chose to ignore and kept walking to the door.

the beastman realizing nic's motives and moved to the side of the door, he did not even attempt to stop nic.

" I don't think that an outsider should go into our treasury alone" a beastman wearing a cat mask suddenly appeared out of nowhere, he even scared the rhino beastman that did not even see which direction he came from.

"Vice-General Graygrash" the beastman said as he kneeled again, this time however he did not raise his head.

"I would be your guide" graygrash said as he tapped nic's shoulder and went infront of him, he then pressed one hand on the door, and a series of mechanical clicks and clunks were heard.

the door then opened slowly on it's own, and as is opened a bright yellow hue can be seen glimmering on the otherside.

the room was then fully opened, inside was very spacious, it looked as though they were ants in a room of mountains of gold and silver, all different kinds of treasures can be seen.

"no wonder the beast kingdom is so prosperous" nic mumbled as he looked at all the treasures, with this much it was enough to build 10 new kingdoms, 'if they have this much here, then what about their other treasury's'

nic was deep in thought but suddenly he felt the connection between him and phyora grew even more, and as he looked over in the direction he felt phyora, he saw graygrash holding a bag and two katana's, he did not know when graygrash moved, but nic soon realized that it most be his gift.

"I believe these are what you came for" graygrash said as he tossed them towards nic, they slide on the floor and stopped at his feet.

nic did not say anything, instead he went to pick up phyora, the black sword vibrated as though it was happy to be in the hands of its master, nic even realized that it had its black sheath that he lost when fighting the scout team.

nic then began to examine the sheath, as he was surprised to see it once more.

"we found it long ago, you should protect the sheath as much as the sword, in the end it's the home to the blade, without a home a blade loses its way" graygrash said as he walked towards nic.

"you should also learn to protect your weapons also, this one was making trouble for days now, never seen someone with two cursed weapons" graygrash said as he looked at the pure white sword, on its hilt was that of 000 that seemed to be carved poorly by that of a sharp blade.

"it's not a curse weapon" nic mumbled.

"what is it?" graygrash asked as he was interested.

"I actually dont know, it's a weapon that was left by my father, although it acknowledged me it never unsheathed for me, and because of this I carved the numbers 000 in its hilt, it means that it is nothing" nic said as he picked it up from off the floor and began to exam it, the sword was all white, only thing that held color was the golden dragon Crest on its sheath, he even tried to unsheath it but their was no luck.

"so that means that it is an unregistered cursed weapon" graygrash mumbled to himself, a unregistered cursed weapon is a cursed weapon that is yet to have ever been used by its master, because of this a ranking imprint would not be on its hilt.

'but this is wierd, it obvious it takes him to be its master, but yet it won't unsheath for him, why?' graygrash watched the sword in Nics hand.

nic used to ask the same question but he did not care much about the sword, his mother told him that it was a gift left behind by his father, he did not know much about his father, but his mother once told him a story of how he was extremely strong, and it was because of his strength that she fell inlove.

but because of this nic hated his father, if he was so strong then why did he leave his mother to die, and why did he never once came for him, he suffered alot over the years because of what he was, and all this rage that was built up in him over the years was directed to the gift his father left behind.

on the weapon were many scratches and carvings that were made from that of a sharp blade, nic mostly directed his anger to this sword.

now that he thought about it, this may be the reason it choose not to unsheath for him, as cursed weapons act like they are alive.

"I wonder, if I heal you would you forgive me" nic mumbled as he looked at the sword.

"Renew"

he activated his skill and began to heal the damages that he inflicted upon the sword, but what he did not expect was that the carvings on the swords sheath and hilt were disappearing very quickly, he looked up to see graygrash looking at him with his arms behind his back.

"I would be leaving now" nic said as he walked to the exit, he did not want graygrash to see his skill, he was even trying to hide it from author.

as he walked out the door he felt that of a slight breeze before seeing that of graygrash infront of him.

"I was ordered to take you to your training grounds, you are here to learn how to fight, so that you would be a good asset to our kingdom, not a freeloader" graygrash said as he grabbed nic by the horn.

soon after they vanished in a mist of black smoke.
