Story Of Legends

Riku has been pulling the sledge for 6 hours without stopping despite cold winds and a heavy snowstorm. At sunrise, he manages to take the sled to the top of the mountain. He gets down on his knees from exhaustion and gasps. After resting a little, he pulls out his brother's letter from his pocket and starts reading it.

"Dear stupid little brother

Obviously, I won't see you for a while. you've grown a lot since I've seen you last time. And looks like you got a lot friends now. I see you've found a purpose.

It's good to see you try like this, but Its sad to see that you will never pass me. Our grandfather was excited to hear that you were alive,

I gotta hand it to you, Even I was wondering how strong you were when I heard that my stupid brother was alive.

And I have been thinking about old days a lot lately. I can't bring back those years and I don't have time to create more precious memories.

But don't forget, you still have your friends and you can create more precious memories with them. I will not be there for you , but still dont forget me brother. -Your brother that you will never pass.

He slowly puts the letter to his pocket.

"I will not..."

After Riku quickly descends from the mountain, he meets Dearer at the temple.

Riku "What's next?"

Dearer "You must pass another test before entering the training area inside the temple."

Riku "What is the other test?"

Dearer shows a large piece of rock next to the temple and, "Without using your power, with your fists, with your kicks, if necessary, you will use your head to break this stone.

Riku repeatedly punches the rock, but the piece of Rock doesn't even get scratched.

After the Riku punches, he was left gasping for breath.

Dearer "You have to believe, Son, you have to believe that you can break it, that's how you can break it."

He punches the rock when he thinks about what he's going through. Riku begins to accelerate. Dearer "Do this for him, Riku you can do it, I am believing in you."

Riku breaks the stone to pieces with his right fist.

Dearer proudly looks at Riku. Riku's hands were bruised.

Finally Dearer takes him to the temple. The temple was small from the outside, and the inside was huge. There were multiple areas in the temple.

Each of the fields had different working sections. Deaer first takes him to the center field, "he'll strengthen his resistance." the area in the middle was filled with six small holes.

Riku "What am I going to do now?"

Dearer "You are going to block fire using your ice."

Riku "How long will this take?"

Dearer, "I can't control the fire, so you'll continue until the fire goes out. it could be by nightfall, by an hour, it depends on your strength."

Riku, "What if I get tired?"

Dearer "You will burn, I will start now." Then he pulls a lever. A strong fire rises from the holes.

Riku covers the holes, but the fire continues to come and melts his ice.

He continues to fight back. Minutes, hours pass, but the fire from the holes continues to rise without stopping. Riku becomes increasingly tired and sweats.

Dearer "2 hours have passed, and you are still trying, thats good."

Riku continues his training without any conversation.

At the time Arito was making his way to Hecta without losing anytime.

"I hope I make it through without getting caught." After a while he reaches a deserted place. After standing still, he begins to hear loud noises from his left side. He follows the sound and encounters a cliff. He sees a huge army down the cliff. An army full of creatures,dragons,giants.

Arito enters the bushes next to him and begins to look.

There were 3 men at the head of the large army. Those were Hecta and 2 other guys that Arito didnt know.

Hecta stands up and raises his hand to silence army and begins to speak. "A great war will begin very soon, and I ask you to kill every person who stands in front of you without mercy.

but especially the user of purple ice, I want you to kill him, if he dies,the prophecy will never be true, do not let me down, or I will tear you all to pieces. Now prepare youselfs, 2 days later we will attack The Kingdom of Hariken."

All the monsters prepares themselves by weaponizing themselves.

Wercer "I think we have a little guest over here."

When Arito's and Wercer's eye meet eachother, Arito gets scared and tries to escape there. But Wercer and Retyon appeares infront him.

Wercer squeezes Arito's throat and lifts him up.

Retyon "Since you are here, we want to you to give a little message to your friends. Tell God of death that we are coming for him and he has better be ready for this war."

"This war will be very fun."

After saying that they both disappeared. Arito gasped for air and after resting a little he quickly started to go back to the palace.

At that time, the fire was finally extinguished in Riku's practice. Riku leaves the center field and finds Dearer. He had prepared a meal for Riku to relieve his fatigue and restore his energy.

Riku "Which training do I have next?"

Dearer "Your work will be the area on the left, where you will learn to use your power quickly and carefully."

Riku quickly finishes his meal and goes to the field on the left.

Dearer leads him to the left field while telling him what to do.

"We'll blindfold you in this area, and you will be dodging the incoming attacks."

Riku, "Is there anything else?"

Dearer, "Yes, you will only use your one hand."

Riku "What if I get shot."

Dearer, "You'll be paralyzed."

Riku closes his eyes with a black bandage and says "I'm ready."

Dearer leaves there shouting "The training has begin!"

Riku uses his ears very carefully, he focuses on the incoming sounds.

He hears a sharp object coming at him at full speed. he immediately slides to the left side.

After he dodges it, he hears a lot more sharp object coming towards him.

He does his best to dodge all of them.

Riku has almost begun to accelerate enough to cross the sound wall.

While he was dodging he almost got hit by a sharp object right in the head. I stopped the object at the right time by holding it mid air.

At the same time,

Arito has managed to return to the Kingdom of Hariken. As soon as he reaches the kingdom, he quickly searches for Jiiku and the others for to tell them about the events that happened to him.

Arito "He has a huge army, bigger than before, but the trouble is not them, the trouble is the two other guys that was standing next to Hecta."

Wendy, "Who are these people?"

Arito "They said the their names were Wercer and Retyon."

Kelcie, "Are you sure it was wercer and retyon?"

Arito "Yes."

Kelcie, "Then there's no point in fighting because they don't know what it's like to be defeated."

Sugu, "How do you know that?"

Kelcie "Long ago, the world was almost completely covered in sand, They were the ones who were going to do it. They destroyed many clans,kingdoms and gods. no one stood in front of them until Zaldra sent them to his father. One of the clans they destroyed was our clan. I've seen people in my clan die, they just killed everyone with one move. They did it without any mercy.

And they are the ancient gods of Egypt, Wercer and Retyon, also children of Anibus."

Gorou, "If they're out, then zaldran's father could be out too."

Jiiku "No, if he had come out, he would have been noticed by now."

Cuno, "How did they come out?"

Zen "Isn't it clear obivious? Probably somebody outside helped them."

Wendy, "Yes, Zen is probably right, when the curse is made from outside, you can broke it but you cant do the same inside."

Rose, "Then it was Hecta."

Jiiku "Yes, most likely its him, and he might actually can work for Zaldra's father."

Arito "And they told one more thing."

Gorou "What did they say?"

Arito "They said they will come for you."

Cuno "They will come for Jiiku? Why?

Arito "I dont know they didnt told anything about that."

Rose "What are you planning Jiiku?"

Jiiku "They are too strong too fight. But I can save you guys some time?"

Rose "Save time? for what?"

Jiiku "For you to escape."

Everyone was in confusion, they were trying to understand what Jiiku has told them.

Zen "Are we running away? but why?"

Jiiku "Even Zaldra couldn't kill them, and that means they are too powerful, so you guys are escaping no matter what."

Wendy "At least we can fight with Hecta? Like our last battle."

Jiiku "No, you will do as I say. We cant win this war."

Rose "What are talking about? Even you distract them, do you think that they are going to let you live!?"

Jiiku "We have no choice!"

Cuno "Does Zaldra knows that they are back on earth?"

"Zaldra and the other gods cannot do anything because they were forbidden to land on earth by the keepers, " Jiiku said.

Wendy "The Four Musketeers? but they are a legend."

Jiiku "The truth is,there are keepers, since they have been, Zaldra and the others can't land on earth, even if they had they stayed for a very short time. That's why Zaldra was rushing in and out of the Earth every time."

Zen "Who are these keepers anyways?"

Jiiku said, "Long ago Oporox revived 4 guards using his elemental powers before he became a prison.The guards were Water,Fire,Air and Earth.They had powers like gods, but somehow they couldn't leave the Earth."

"They use their power to prevent Zaldra and the others from landing on earth."

Cuno said, "So how are you here?"

Rose "Beacuse he is half mortal."

Wendy "Can't you go to him?"

"I can't, only the chosen ones can teleport there." Jiiku said.

Sugu, "Then we'll run away?"

Jiiku "It's the only way,if you don't want to die."
