The Legendary Sword Heir

Chaos in the City

BUACH!

"How dare you touch this sword I'm selling! What can an orphan like you do, huh! You're making my sword a fucking bearer like you later!" hardik a swordsman who was kicking a man out of his shop.

"Ukh!"

The man who had been bruised by the blow on his cheek and body immediately ran away from the sword shop he had just entered. With a very fast pace, the man ran through the crowd of people who were in the market quickly and covered his face with a dull black hood.

When he got away from the store, the man walked slowly because he was tired.

"Isn't that Tatsuya? That son of a bitch, isn't it?" The citizens who were in the market kept talking about Tatsuya.

"Yes! Don't comenigh! Your life will be shit. Yesterday he stole the fruit in the fruit shop, tomorrow the seller is sickly and close the shop! Just don't let your merchandise get touched!" added others who are presenting a more spicy talk to be heard.

"Ck!"

Tatsuya could only cluck annoyed and disgusted at what he heard every day. The man ran to the top of a hill in Arkansas. Where there are several tombs up there, including the graves of Tatsuya's parents buried there, Tatsuya is famous as an orphan pesky carrier, making Tatsuya famous, because it is said that Tatsuya's parents died because they protected him and only left a legacy sword belonging to his parents. That sword was rusty and not sharp anymore. Because of the rumors, a curse was believed to enter Tatsuya's body.

Arriving at the hill, Tatsuya sat before the tomb of his father and mother who were under a tree, he looked at the graves of his parents with sadness.

"Why did you leave me once? Why don't I just die for you?" muttered Tatsuya while rubbing the tombstone of his parents.

"You know? In the city of Arkansas, I could not live in peace at all. They always demean me. I don't even have a decent place to live under the bridge," the man raved over the grave of his parents. "I want to be a hero like you, who could bravely wield an iron sword and kill all the villains in this city, or in any other city," Tatsuya continued with thousands of buried desires.

"In fact, you only left this sword for me. Which I can't even use. Where can it be used, right?" Tatsuya was a little annoyed and still did not understand, why was he only given such a rusty sword?

However, no matter how much he messed up and complained about his life, he still loved his parents who were gone and continued to decide to be a good person and could be useful to many people. He could only live with this life.

As Tatsuya was giving flowers over the graves of his parents, suddenly hundreds of birds were seen flying away from the forest with quite a terrible sound.

"WAK! KWAK!"

Making Tatsuya surprised instead of playing and seeing a lot of birds that cross the blue sky under the scorching sun. The wind suddenly blew, blowing out Tatsuya's hood and also his blonde hair.

Wush!

Instantly, Tatsuya felt a strange and uneasy feeling. He looked towards the forest, and felt goosebumps.

"Dad, mom. I'll go home first, okay? I'm here again tomorrow." Sensing the unpleasant air, Tatsuya immediately said goodbye to his parents and went down the hill to find a little snack. Hopefully with the little money he has, he can get a little food or anything he can eat.

When he reached the city, Tatsuya approached a shophouse that was near the entrance gate of Arkansas city. There are a lot of city guards who are known to be very unfriendly. Tatsuya stopped there because his stomach was already very hungry.

"Excuse me, can I buy that bacon?" Tatsuya pointed at the still warm and middle-hung smoked meat.

"Huh! How much do you have to buy that meat?!" The big, bald man looked like he was underestimating Tatsuya.

"I just have this." Some gold was issued by Tatsuya, and it should have been enough.

"Hohoho, this little boy turned out to have money. Since I'm being kind, I'm giving this big meat to you!" The bald man gave the bacon a sizeable smoke.

Because of his hunger, Tatsuya immediately devoured the meat quickly while being laughed at by some people there. Tatsuya had gotten used to such a thing and no longer cared.

However, as he was devouring the meat, the bald man dropped Tatsuya's food onto the ground, leaving the meat dirty and inedible. Worse yet, the guards stepped on the meat and laughed happily.

"Haha! You little rancid boy! Dare you touch my precious flesh! You pay with 4 gold, 4 bites will be enough for you!" ledek the guards.

Tatsuya was bowed and felt that he was tired of being humbled, Tatsuya clenched his hand and took the rusty sword from his left side.

"Don't be a hotshot! You guys are as jerks as me!" furious Tatsuya.

He immediately pounced on one of the guards and drew his sword towards the guard's neck, however, the guard held back with his hand, so that his hand was covered in Blood. Tatsuya was still trying to kill the guard.

"Well! How dare this little boy! Where the sword is broken! Could be my hand infection, damn it!"

"Mo–monster!" said one of the guards stammeringly.

BUKS!

"Armghh!!"

The sound of a huge stick punch hit the body of the guard and made one of them bounce far away and hit the tree. Tatsuya immediately looked back and saw a large, stocky body, like the ogre he often saw in books.

"Yahwaa! The monster entered the village!" shouted one of the guards and attempted to climb into a tower to ring the alarm bell.

"SHIELD! MONSTERS DESCEND FROM THE FOREST!" shouted the survivors as they entered the village.

Tatsuya who was still under the ogre, immediately left. However, the hood of his robe was pulled by the ogre and made Tatsuya fall. Tatsuya's body trembled violently when the monster was in front of him, however, he remembered still holding the rusty sword.

"yes too! I still have a gun!" Simultaneously, the ogre prepared to hit Tatsuya towards the bottom.

"Ukh! Why are there monsters in Arkansas!" inner Tatsuya.

BUACH!

Fortunately, the attack did not hit Tatsuya. The man immediately rolled to the right, then got up. Feeling in danger, he directly pointed his sword towards the monster.

Now, the sword was before him, as well as the monstrous monster. To be honest, he was very afraid if he had to face the monster. Tatsuya's heart was pounding as he held the sword and prepared to draw out his sword, however, he also felt the heat on his body, as if it gave him courage. Tatsuya sharpened his gaze and ran to stick it towards the monster's heart.

JLB!

Instantly, the monter did not budge. Tatsuya took a few steps back to see whether or not it worked. However, the monster looked even more wrathful and made Tatsuya hurriedly pull the rusty sword from his chest.

"GROOOOOO!" the monster shouted, still fit and Tatsuya immediately ran to find a safe place.

"Damn! Stupid me! this dull and rusty sword was capable of killing that thick-skinned monster!" tatsuya said as he ran and put the sword into his scabbard.

He went into the city and saw the city that had been ravaged, it turns out the monsters had already entered the city. Lots of bodies of people lying, also a lot of blood splattered. This instantly made Tatsuya keep running without thinking about what and who he should help. Right now, he should be able to help himself.

However, as he was running, someone pulled his leg and made Tatsuya fall.

Bruk!

"Ughhh!" He looked back, and there was a mother hugging her son.

"To–please take my son. Please save him!" pinta the mother. He still had time to ask for help to the survivors, even though he himself was full of wounds and blood flowing throughout the body. Tatsuya who was feeling pity, immediately carried the child into his arms.

"Son, you must survive, however you may," the mother asked, saying her last words. Tatsuya shivered his lower lip as he said, "I'm sorry!"

Tatsuya continued his escape while taking the boy away from the whole mess in his city.

"Damn! Damnit damnit! Damnit damnit! Shit!" He continued to run while closing his hood and into the bridge, and hid under the water under the bridge.

Tatsuya felt very safe down there. He immediately lowered the little boy and calmed him down.

"Ssh, you're a smart kid, aren't you? Don't be noisy, huh? The monsters will be able to find out our hiding," Tatsuya said with his hands shaking violently, but still trying to smile.

"My mom how?" The little boy looked scared. How should Tatsuya answer the little boy's question?

"Te–calm down. I'll take you somewhere safe. May my mom be okay?" Tatsuya gave the boy false hope.

From the outside, there were cries of people asking for help and also cries that never stopped.

"Why are there monsters here? Did something happen that I didn't know?" tatsuya closed the ear of the little boy in front of him, and tried to think hard amid the cries of those who asked for help and even groaned in pain.

"I'm sorry ...."
