The World Of Demons And Gods

Chapter 21 - ‡※‡My custom sword and spirit named Lynae!‡※‡

...

As the sun rises, the bright yet warm ray of light had reached Cyrus's room; it did not stop there as it reached Cyrus' fair white skin.

His eyelids twitched slightly as it slowly opened, soon he yawned loudly, "Uuuuuu~!"

He stretched his back causing his ribs to produce a snapping sounds *Creak*Crack*

Damn! That was a good one!

Cyrus could not help to get mesmerized by releasing the tension on his back, with another stretch of his neck; he stood up from his bed and walked out.

"Ah, I remember it was actually the day we are going to leave," Cyrus muttered to himself as he opened the door and walked downstairs. When he was about to go down the stairs a delicious fragrant of food had entered inside of his nose causing his stomach to produce a sound.

*Gruu~*

Do not worry baby, you will eat a bowl full of food to stuff inside of you. Cyrus touched his stomach and quickly went towards the kitchen while in the living room; he had noticed that a white blanket already covered every furniture.

Seeing this made Cyrus sigh.

How long are we going to go back here together as a whole family once again? Cyrus could not help to get slightly depressed.

When he walked passed from the sofa, he noticed that there are only one bag and three swords leaning on it on the cushion.

If Cyrus were to describe the swords, he would say that it looked like a European sword, one is a saber, and two are long swords. All three of these swords were actually beautiful and well built.

Cyrus was quite disappointed because the katana he had asked for his father was actually not here.

"Sigh"

Shaking his head, Cyrus continued to walk towards the kitchen and once he entered, he saw both of his parents. His mother, Shane, was placing a breakfast dishes on the table while his father, James, was lacing his black boots.

However, what startled Cyrus silently is that both of his parents are wearing a black leather coat and cape, while over their heads it has a Kitsune-like mask.

They looked professionals... So this is what it looks like... they are one of the most powerful figures in the continent of Celestia... Cyrus could not help to feel the distance between him and his parents.

Sensing his presence, Shane looked at Cyrus with a smile on her face softly, this smile made Cyrus feel that they are close once again.

"Finally you are up dear. After you finished eating go wash yourself before we could leave." Shane softly said as she pulled a chair for her Son to sit on.

"Mn okay... Mother, Father, be honest with me, are you both assassins?" Cyrus asked suddenly. He could not keep it anymore as his curiosity is killing him. However, he casually asked them for them to feel that he really does not care if they both are killing people.

He understands that in this barbaric world of Fantasya, murdering, or killing someone is practically common here and the moral of people here are actually far different from his previous world.

Both couples were startled by his sudden question, it made their heart skipped but they did not hide it from him, but seeing their son's calm and relaxed manner, they could only give up on hiding and smiled.

"Sit here." James waved his hands indicating Cyrus to sit on the chair that his mother prepared for him.

Cyrus nodded as he comfortably sits next to his parents.

"You are half correct and half wrong... Both your mother and I are actually bounty hunters... we earn from killing people and as you had said, we can assassinate people... However, it is not something for us to do without a permit." James explained.

"I see, everything makes sense now, the reason behind me and sis to go the academy is for us to be safe due to enemies that you two made... That is fine this is enough. I understand." Cyrus smiled naturally,

The couples were actually shocked by his attitude, they did not expect him to be like this, and they did not expect that it was only okay for him.

Has our son m.a.t.u.r.ed this much?

"..."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere around them became awkward, but soon this awkwardness was shattered when a sound rang out from Cyrus.

*Gruuu~*

Cyrus's stomach growled in hunger causing the two to startle and looked at their embarrassed and fidgeting son of them.

"S-sorry, I'm just hungry..." Cyrus looked down, as he was extremely embarrassed to look at his parents.

"Hahaha, sorry dear, mother is so slow." The couples could not help to laugh as Shane placed the last dish on the table.

...

The three had started to eat as they talk about simple things and when they are finished, Cyrus took a bath and wore decent clothing.

When he went towards the living room, once again he noticed James was holding something.

When he was closed to it, Cyrus had finally seen the beauty of the sword. Its scabbard was beautifully designed and it has a black and white color, and the katana blade is sheath inside of it.

The whole sword's beauty could not be described in words, as it would make people drool over it and had the urge to steal it.

Seeing the sword has startled and amazed Cyrus as his eyes were practically shining as he saw this. He was very excited because he knew that this white katana sword is actually his personal custom sword that was personally made by his own father.

"Father isn't this..."

"Yes son, this is your sword, and you know! The sword design that you gave me was hard to craft! Shaping the sword was hard! I could even say that Scythe was easier to create but this thing is difficult and could easily deform! But the method you said that it needed to be smashed by layer, it really helped a lot!" James burst out of his excitement once again.

James was actually excited because not only it is presenting it to his son, he is also excited because he is very thankful to his son that if Cyrus is not his son, he could go and practically kowtow to his son three times to be his master in smiting!

(A.N: The method James was referring to was a method in forging called Damascus.)

"The sword had a special security made inside of it, and I can say that your sword is much better than your own sister... The weight of this had reached 150 tons because the metals I used in this sword to forge this is actually very special. Therefore, if someone stole this they will surely have a hard time or might even collapse! There is also a spirit inside, so when you lose it just call its name it'll come to you even if you are a million kilometers away apart from the sword." James explained as he explained and point out every detail that the sword has, however, he kept the teleportation gem as a secret

(A.N: To view the distance, imagine you are on the earth and the sword is on the sun when you call the sword it will come to you without a problem... Imagine the kinetic energy it could create!)

James stretched his hands then lightly gave the katana sword on Cyrus' palms, "Made a contract with the spirit of the sword, with this it will be solely yours. It has a spatial storage inside that you can only open. There's another sword for your sister when you met her at the academy, give it to her.," he explained with a faint smile on his face.

"Okay." Cyrus took the sword and tightly gripped it.

He then sat on lotus position while holding the sword as he transfers his anima on the sword trying to make a contract with the spirit inside.

When he opened his eyes inside his dantian, he could already hear Lily's voice right next to him, "Cyrus, the spirit inside that sword is actually safe as it wouldn't cause a problem... Name that brat with an awesome name!" Lily said excitedly.

What Cyrus had noticed is that there was a sword floating above the air as it spins slowly, this sword was exactly similar to his Katana sword.

"Y-you can see me!?" A young yet cute voice rang out from the sword that startled Cyrus.

The Katana sword was referring to Lily, as soon as she said that, she glowed in azure light and turned into a twelve years old girl, wearing a fancy blue dress and she has a long blue hair that almost reached her bottom.

Despite being young, and her voice sounds imm.a.t.u.r.e, Cyrus could tell that she will become a beauty once she grew up that could cause a havoc around the city.

Seeing this girl, Lily crossed her arms as she said, "Duh, I'm not blind and also I am a spirit like you so seeing you aren't a problem to me at all!"

Hearing the way she talks at the child, Cyrus stared at Lily, "Hey, Lily, She's just a child..." He smiled bitterly as she touched the head of the little girl on his front.

The female Child giggled from happiness before snuggly hugging Cyrus on his abdomen. Seeing this made Cyrus smile from happiness.

Hearing what he had said made Lily smirk, "Heh, Cyrus that kid is older than us... It's even older than your parents!"

Seriously!?

"I-is that true?" Cyrus looked at the child.

"Hm! Yup! Actually, I am already five thousand years old! Your father had picked me when he found me in the middle of the ocean, thirty years ago! Uhm... Brother, are you going to hate me?" The little child's voice was extremely cute that Cyrus could not bear to handle!

"pfft!"

F-five thousand years old!? Wouldn't that make you my ancestor then!?

Cyrus was not only shocked but also Lily next beside him as she covered her mouth with her soft hands.

Due to shock and blushing due to her cuteness, Cyrus felt that he was going to get overload from processing things right now.

"A-hahaha! Of course not! We will be together forever once we had a contract." Cyrus said nervously as he stepped backward and trying to forget that this kid looking in front of him is a grandma.

When the little girl heard, the word 'contract' her eyes was filled with excitement as she was jumping excitedly, "R-really? A contract!? Please do the procedure!"

However, before could Cyrus speak, Lily walked towards her and whispered something on her tiny ears. The girl nodded obediently as if she was taking a note from Lily.

Lily returned right beside Cyrus as she watched Lily.

The little girl stood up there with her eyes closed and her cheeks were puffing as she was holding her breath as if she was diving on the water for the first time.

Her face was extremely cute to look at, seeing this and realizing Lily's intent, he looked at her and saw her that she was laughing as she covered her mouth trying to hold her laugh as she can.

This woman is just messing with the kid!

Not knowing what to say, Cyrus just shook his head as he looked at the little girl, "You don't have to do that, just listen to what will I say and let it resonate in your heart and start to accept it." Cyrus explained.

"AH! O-Ok." The little girl was startled and looked at Lily strangely; it took her a while to realize that she was being messed up by Lily, thinking of this, she pouted as she tried to ignore Lily.

This action made Lily devilishly smile at her.

The little girl stared at Cyrus with obedient eyes; this made her resemble a devoted dog waiting for her owner to say something good.

"In the name of my bloodline, Baumgartner, I shall spill my blood and your blood together as we protect each other even if the hell befalls us, we shall endure and fight alongside with me as my sword and weapon to purify and slay evil and destroy enemy ahead of us! Now, I shall grant thou a name that would last until the end of my life as, Lynae!" Cyrus grand voice echoed throughout inside his dantian, everything shook with only his voice and powerful enough to make Lily and Lynae got nervous as if they were hearing a voice from the emperor!

(A.N: Lynae means little blue flower...)

When he made the name, Cyrus nape on his neck and Lynae's forehead glowed in a yellowish light and aura.

As soon as it dissipated, a symbol of a majestic sun appeared in the area where it glows.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone was quiet when suddenly...

"Pffft! Bwahahaha! Of all parts of your body, it appeared on your forehead! Lynae, what is that? A third eye? Bwahaha!" Lily's laughed echoed as she was bursting into tears, as she cannot get enough on Lynae's silly appearance.

Shocked, Lynae quickly ran towards the shallow river then she kneeled as she looked on her face on the reflection of the anima, she lifted her bangs and saw something that shocked her.

Because on her forehead, there was a huge sun symbol.

Seeing her ridiculous appearance, Lynae quickly sobbing as she ran towards Cyrus and tightly gripped his clothes.

"Uuuu~ Master! I-I do not want this! Uuuu, it's so ugly, please remove this Uuuuu!" Lynae cried with her face full of beads of tears as she regrets it.

Her tears were flooding like a river... Wait, Master?

Despite being old in age, she was still a child, she is a spirit meaning she died at that age, it does not always mean that having an old age would m.a.t.u.r.e itself; it would always depend on his or her experience.

Not knowing what to do Cyrus looked at her apologetically, "I'm sorry Lynae, I can't... I already made an oath that until the end of my life, you will be free... It is not easy to undo the oath." He said as he shook his head.

"N-no way... Uwaaah!" Lynae cried even more loudly, even the entire world inside Cyrus' dantian is vibrating.

Turning his head towards Lily he could only bitterly smile, he had never thought that Lily has this kind of personality.

Seeing his gaze, Lily smiled apologetically.

D-Did I do too much? She could only ask herself, she had already noticed earlier that Lynae has still a childish personality not a grandma in disguise, which is why she does not put a hostility towards Lynae.

However thinking this Lily frowned, she is too young to be a spirit... she could not help to feel sorry for her.

...

Minutes had passed; Lynae had already stopped crying only hiccups remained.

"Cyrus return, for now, leave this child to me." She said as she waved her hands at Cyrus.

However, when Lynae heard this she felt cold chills running around her body as she quickly looked at Lily, what she saw was that Lily is already grinning at her as if a monster looking at her ready to devour her whole.

"Iyaaah! Master don't leave me here with this ugly demon!" Lynae jumped off like a rabbit out of fear as she quickly hugged Cyrus.

However, hearing the word 'ugly' and 'demon' had quickly struck Lily and quickly ignited her explosives inside of her head, "YOU DAMNED THIRD EYED BRAT!" Lily shouted as she leaped towards Lynae.

However, Lynae had already vanished and transformed into a sword out of fear and flew off at her max speed.

"Come on..." Having two rowdy girls inside of him, he could only hope that the two would not be like this forever.

Cyrus vanished inside his dantian leaving the two girls.

...

"Iyaah! Master!" Lynae cried again but Lily had already stopped catching her as she finally calmed herself.

When Lynae had sensed that no one was following her, she transformed into a human form once again and when she looked at Lily, she saw her grinning devilishly that freaked her.

"Ekk!"

However, Lily had not done anything nor whatsoever; she did not grin at her but only stared at her.

Seeing Lynae's reaction had made Lily slightly depressed inside of her heart, "I might have already inflicted her a trauma..."

Lily sighed as she shook her head, "Hey third eyed girl, look there, there's a huge egg!" She pointed.

Hearing that, Lynae's ears twitched as she quickly looked at the direction where Lily was pointing at, what she saw was a huge shiny scarlet egg!

"Wah! Too big!" She already ignored Lily as she quickly ran towards the scarlet egg and gave it a big hug.

...

Back in the material world, Cyrus opened his eyes as he stood up.

"You finally came back, it took half hour... It seems she gave you quite a trouble." James scratched his head while smiling wryly at his son.

"She was a little girl... And a crybaby." Cyrus said with a sigh.

James could not help to smile bitterly, "She was a victim of a great war since thousand years ago... You had to take care of her, think of her as a little sister okay?"

"A war victim huh... Do not worry father! I will take care of her." Cyrus assured as he gave a smile to his father.

"Son, how about you test the sword right now?"

The sword that he held earlier had turned to an aura and became a sun symbol on Cyrus' nape.

Cyrus nodded as he reached out his hands and with a grabbing action of his hands, he shouted, "Come forth, Lynae!"

As he called Lynae, his symbol on his nape grew brighter and soon enough, a white katana sword had materialized out of the air before being grabbed by Cyrus' claw hands.

As he grabs it, he felt the weight of the sword; however, with his tremendous amount of strength Cyrus could casually carry it like a normal sword.

Holding the grip of the katana, he draws it away from its white scabbard and what surprised Cyrus was that it has a shiny like silver blade appearance.

Holding it with only one hand, Cyrus tested it with his few kendo skills like stabbing and slashing with only this, it had made Cyrus feel nostalgic.

"Father, how do I store an object?" Cyrus asked.

James smiled as he replied, "Just close your eyes and flow your anima, once you see a vast field of empty space that should be it."

That easy? Cyrus nodded his head and closed his eyes as he saw a vast field of empty space, however, the space around it was not black, the ground was azure blue and the skies were darker than black.

Cyrus opened his eyes with a shocked look in his eyes. This is amazing!

"Thank you, father!" Cyrus bowed his head; this made James felt relieved and smiled brilliantly, "That was nothing, my son! I love you both you and your sister; of course, I would do anything for my child." James tightly hugged Cyrus and this made him felt that ten thousand knives had stabbed his heart.

He could only wonder in sadness, how many years would it take me to experience this warm hug.

Suddenly the door opened, "Are you two ready?" Shane's voice resounded and when she saw her husband and son hugging together in happiness, Shane felt pained inside of her heart.

Hearing that, Cyrus separated and turned around, "Father, I'll make my stuff."

Without saying anything, James nodded with a smile on his face.

As he entered his room one last time, he took many clothes and the bunch of feathers as he put it inside his spatial storage. The items would vanish if he pointed his sword at them, as it would be stored inside his spatial storage.

However, doing this kind of keeping is very weird to Cyrus so he used his sign language skills and used the letter "T" symbol with his right hand and it worked perfectly.

(T=take)

When he closed his eyes, he could see the stuff inside the spatial storage.

This made him amazed and baffled on how the heck it works.

Inside that spatial storage, he finally noticed the items that his father left inside, there was an extremely beautiful yet elegant sword for his sister, and there is a pile of cards and crystals that have different colors and has a shape of medals.

This crystals and cards was currency on this continent.

...

Cyrus returned with his parents and noticed that Shane is already holding her saber sword while James has just finished putting his swords on both of his waists.

With a smile on his face,

"Father, Mother. Let us go!
