The Legend Fake

Chapter 93 - Asterion

A few weeks after the Spanric City attack, a peaceful atmosphere was again seen there. People are busy doing daily activities, some are repairing their homes.

Such peace is easy to obtain here, but also very fragile. "I still remember the message from Gorden back then. Forest in the western mountains, what's there?" Inner Izuru who was daydreaming at the dining table.

Meanwhile, somewhere else, precisely in the Zergaken Family residence. A family assigned to guide selected people to perform their duties.

Shun still had no duties since that day, he was now sitting alone at the dinner table after breakfast.

*****

For that time the Author once made a story about Shun who follows Mother Karin (leader of the Zergaken family) who wants to go to the Kingdom of Claric, who wants to, it was done to prevent Mother Karin from finding Princess Clara who was chosen to be a Legendary Bow user.

Because according to his request to Karin to keep this matter a secret so that Princess Clara is not separated from her Mother, at the end of Arc 2.

In short Shun and Karin came faster and warned the Princess to hide her Bow. Finally they managed to fool Mother Karin, despite the suspicion in her eyes.

"I've heard about the assault on the town where Iona lives now, I hope it's okay." Inner Shun.

"The promised teacher hasn't arrived yet. I should be able to get stronger as quickly as possible, I can't keep quiet here." Shun continued and stood up from the chair.

"I don't have time to wait anymore! I better practice alone!" Shun said then walked off into the hallway in the back.

In front of the mansion, a luxurious horse carriage stopped at the door. Someone came down with the help of the servants who immediately greeted him.

Shun who accidentally saw the front door open became curious about the crowd outside. "Who's coming?" Ask Shun.

From behind Karin comes Shun. "He was one of the chosen ones long before you came." Answer Karin.

"I think I'm the only one newly found?" Ask Shun.

"No, there are already some. But the only ones in this house are you and him."

The people outside then entered and confronted Shun as well as Karin. Shun watched the person in their midst, a small child who was about the same height as Shun's shoulder.

"Asterion this is Shun, the owner of the legendary sword. And Shun's Asterion, the legendary dagger power keeper." Karin said introducing them to each other.

"Dark? You mean a gun as big as a knife?" Shun asked while demonstrating the size with his hands.

"True, he was one of the youngest chosen people." Answer Karin.

"One of them? Is there anything else?" Asterion asked with a flat face.

"Oh, I'm sorry I think I mispronounced. Forget my words! Oh yeah, maybe Shun wants to know some tips for using his weapon." Karin said nervously.

"I almost told you about Princess Clara." Inner Karin.

"Of course, I'm happy to meet a new friend." Asterion said with a low tone and a light smile.

"Good then!" Karin said.

"You're taking my things to the room." Asterion said to the servants.

Karin also leaves Shun and Asterion in the living room. They then sat opposite each other, Asterion's originally smiling face turned flat again.

"I've heard your actions. Are you sure you deserve to be the legendary Sword wearer?" Asterion asked Shun while in Claric Kingdom.

"What do you mean!?" Shun asked angrily and stood up from the chair.

"Don't you fucking know! I took it myself from the magic artifact in that little village." Shun denied.

"Then why are you so weak? Of all the stories I heard, the sword was the strongest. Seeing you angry like that is enough for me to draw a conclusion."

"Calm down! He's fishing for my emotions, but what does he want out of it?" Inner Shun.

"What do you want from me?" Shun asked a little more calmly.

"none. I've met a lot of fraudsters who claim to be elected, but I managed to dismantle them and throw them out of here." Clear Asterion.

"So you suspect me?" Ask Shun.

"You are suspicious yourself. Two tasks were given, but you didn't do anything important, but someone else did. The same thing happens to fraudsters."

Shun felt angry at being humiliated. He pointed to Asterion and said. "I'll show you that I deserve it! We'll fight outside!" Shun.

"Hmphc... You sure?" Asterion asked with a grin.

"of course! Are you scared?"

Asterion then picked up something hanging on his waist. He took a dagger and threw it towards Shun. The dagger fell on the table right in front of Shun.

"This is the legendary dagger? But, why is it not so well-maintained?" Shun asked inwardly, then he intended to uproot it.

When Shun touched the dagger, suddenly his hand immediately grasped it very firmly and could not be moved.

"What's this!? My hands, can't let go!" Shun said surprised.

"You won't be able to release it yourself without my permission, this is the power of the Legendary Dagger." Said Asterion walking around towards Shun's place.

Shun was still trying to let go of his grasp with his other hand, but still could not. Suddenly, his body moved by itself, pulling out the dagger and facing toward Asterion who was already nearby.

"I can also move your body without any restrictions. And now, I'm gonna read your memories." Said Asterion pointing his hand at Shun's head and like pulling out something.

"Argggh....!!!! My head! It was like being smashed with a big hammer." Inner Shun was in pain.

Asterion then took his dagger from Shun's hand and fell backwards. He looked towards his dagger and appeared a lot of writing.

"Hm... So you're telling the truth." Asterion said it showed no guilt.

A little while later Karin came carrying a tray with two cups on it. He was surprised to see Shun lying on the floor.

"God! Master Shun!" Said Karin directly putting a tray on the floor.

"Asterion! What are you doing!?" Ask Karin.

"I just do as I always do."

"Until when are you going to keep suspicious of everyone?" Ask Karin.

"I would never believe there was anyone. Then I'll go to the room." Asterion replied and left relaxed.

Karin tries to wake Shun up, then gives him the tea he brought. Behind Asterion stopped and turned around.

"Oh yeah, I read something else from his memory. You two are hiding something about the Legendary Bow User, right?"

Seriate...
