Zenith Online: Rebirth of the Strongest Player

Death is sometimes not the end, and the zenith is empty. Legends rise and fall. Myths are born. Faced with death after a dismal fall from grace where glory, renown, and prominence were once found, Kieran's second chance is fueled by vengeance. It burns like a ruinous flame and drives Kieran's quest for power within and without. Though not an ingrate, he remains curious about why he returned to the past instead of dying. He has nothing but questions, but his death puts the beginning of his story into perspective, showing him that Zenith Online... is the beginning of the end — the end of the current Age. The zenith is empty and calls for someone to claim its throne, but to answer that call means to bear the consequences. Everything — especially choice — has a cost. Challenges lay in wait. The road to supremacy is wound in suffering, and to know the truth is to know madness. And so, the Maddened awakens...

Driven to the Brink

----

Due to the looming battle, Kieran's adrenaline began pumping, which by effect, made it feel as if time had slowed down.

Now that Kieran gave Crimson Ashrune another glance, he realized that although the weapon was extremely heavy, the weight distribution was spectacular. While it was classified as a greatsword, Crimson Ashrune's shape was oddly similar to a longsword. 

In fact, the design seemed to be inspired by zweihanders, a foreign-style doublehanded weapon. As part of the archaic cloth fell down, it exposed a ruby in the center of the weapon's guard that was partly modeled after Agrianos' silver blade.

"You'll be my partner, correct? Then we shall walk into battle and forge our path forward," Kieran murmured while gazing at Crimson Ashrune. It was faint, but the ruby seemed to glimmer with a demonic intent that dissipated as fast as it appeared.
