Chapter 68 - Mahru

Tatski stares out at the village…her long white hair flowing in the wind from her balcony. She coughs up a bit of blood, scowling at the sight of it…the door of her office opens up and a man with short dark walks in smiling softly

Hiro: "You don't have to watch the citizens like a dictator…"

Tatski: "I feel as if it's my duty. Everything that happens in this country only happens with my permission."

Hiro: "And when did you become so pessimistic?"

Hiro sits in her chair. Tatski sighs and sits down on his lap cuddling into his arms. He rubs her legs while staring out the window

Hiro: "You know…who would have guessed 12 years ago we were fighting a super powerful Nazi…"

Tatski: "You don't have to put it like that! Markus was pure evil…he took a lot from us…but also helped us gain something from him…"

Hiro: "Hehe yup…"

Tatski: "Where are the kids? I haven't seen them all day."

Hiro: "Terra is studying in the archives while Hikiro is wandering around doing who knows what…you know…this could give us a few hours of alone time…"

Tatski: "I like the sound of that…"

Hiro and Tatski lean closer to kiss each other…the door of the office suddenly opens and Wudin steps in wearing his mask…he bows before entering

Tatski: "Can't you see I'm busy?! What is it that you need?!"

Wudin: "Swordsmaster Rein has been spotted near the borders of the city. Accompanied by a pink hair women and Mimoria."

Tatski stands up and throws her cloak over her shoulders. She walks through the door with an enraged expression

..

Rein walks through the village followed closely by Mimoria and Maroshima. Mimoria nervously looks at the white haired people walking pass…she feels the anxiety eating her from the inside out

Rein: "Hold up."

Rein holds the handle of his sword as they're instantly surrounded by masked men in red cloaks. Wudin steps forward staring at Rein through his mask

Wudin: "We are the elite police force of this country. Rein, swordsmaster and expert of Yawe. You know that you're wanted in several countries. Turn yourself in or prepare to die…"

Rein: "Suck my dick."

Wudin: "Then prepare for your public execution."

Wudin lunges forward raising his hands. The air around them cracks as Wudin snaps through reality landing a gut crunching punch into Reins stomach…Rein stares at him as the punch doesn't budge him. Wudin looks up at rein as sweat begins forming on his face…Rein smiles and a demon flashes through Wudins mind…

Wudin: "What the hell are you…"

Tatski and lady Hiem appear through the crowd. Lady Hiem laughs loudly while Tatstki stares at rein terrified

Tatski: "Wudin what are you doing?! That is Swordsmaster Rein! He's also called the fourth son of the sword! Demon god Reinhard Dragonsbreath!"

Hiem: "Good grief…"

Wudin steps back slowly…he nods his head before he and his group vanishes into thin air. Tatski steps forward staring at Mimoria

Tatski: "What are you doing with someone like him…I don't know what rebellious stage you're going through but this is unacceptable!"

Mimoria: "Y-you're not my mother! I already told you what I thought about you!"

Tatski: "Why you little shit-"

Lady Hiem steps forward staring up at Rein…He stares down at her before bowing and lowering to one knee.

Lady Hiem: "You look so handsome my son. What are you doing here today?"

Rein: "I need your help. Mimoria has a hidden power…I came to seek your guidance and wisdom Lady Hiem…if you will allow it of course…"

Lady Hiem stares at Reins red hair…she smile softly and nods her head. She turns to Mimoria and grabs her hand

Hiem: "Come with me child…Tatski you stay away."

Tatski: "H-huh?!"

Lady Hiem: "I need to focus. Rein and Maro. Come with me."

The begin walking away through the village. Tatski stands there lost for words…she storms off toward her castle.

Mimoria sits in a large black empty room. She's tied to the table in the middle completely nude. Lady Hiem walks in holding her crystal ball…

Mimoria: "W-why do I have to be completely naked?!"

Hiem: "Yawe receptors are usually in the pressure points in the body. Rein told me everything…your body releases Yawe when it's in moral danger…can you tell me anything that has happened."

Mimoria: "I-I…I…I died. Multiple times…. Everytime I died…I heared a voice…telling me to keep going…"

Lady Hiem circles the Table…she notes down everything while nodding her head…she pokes at Mimroias body with her finger

Hiem: "I've been alive 300 years…I've only seen one other person who said those same things. Her name was Argitha. She had the power to change her fate…she avoided death and that was her downfall…"

Mimoria: "What does that have to do with me?…"

Hiem: "Yawe doesn't vanish or disappear. It only relocates. You have Yawe but it's not in this realm of existence. We will have to find where it is…but for now you should get some rest."

The chains fall from Mimoria and she sits up…she feels an aching pain in her chest…Lady Hiem walks away…her crystal ball swirling with a black smoke…

Rein walks through the village nonchalantly whistling to himself…a young boy runs into him falling over. The boy stares up at Rein with an angry look

Hikiro: "Watch out where you're going jackass!"

Rein: "You brat! I will kill you!"

Hikiro: " Do you know who I am?! I'm the god damn son of Tatski Warri!"

Rein: "I don't give a shit if you were the god of this universe!"

Hiriko throws a rock at Reins head. Rein becomes enraged and grabs the handle of his sword. Maroshima appears stepping in between them

Maroshima: "look i apologize on the behalf of my clumsy master!"

Hiriko: "Yeah you better!"

A young girl with long white hair sits in a large library…she flips through books while eating from a bag of chips…Wudin appears infront of her holding his mask in his hand

Wudin: "Hello Terra…"

Terra: "Wudin? It's rare to see you here! What's up?"

Wudin: "I need your help with something…just don't tell your father and mother."

Terra: "Huh? What does that mean?"

Wudin holds up his hand…the air swirls around his palm as the room begins cracking and distorting. Terra senses the looming danger and stands up

Terra: "What are you doing?!"

Wudin: "Revenge…"

Terra flys toward Wudin gripping the desk. Wudin grabs her by the throat and holds her up

Wudin: "Just another piece of my plan completed. After I kill you I will kill Tatski Warri freeing Eve and using her powers to bring father back."

The doors of the libary open and Hiro steps in staring at Wudin angrily. He steps forward and lighting explodes throughout the room

Wudin: "Hiro Warri. The husband of Tatski and the chairman of the council. I guess you think you can stop me…"

Hiro: "Drop my daughter. And tell me what you're planning…"

Wudin drops Terra and throws his cloak away. He steps forward grinning while his white hair flows in the wind

Wudin: "I want to bring back the real king of the Mahrogus! Markus Mahrogu! My father!"

Hiro: "For some reason that makes a lot of sense…well I won't be letting anything happen to my daughter so surrender."

Wudin: "You'll have to kill me!"

Wudin reaches over and grabs Terra by the throat. Hiro lunges forward waving his arms summoning lighting in the air…Wudin drops Terra instantly and waves his hand. The air around them disappears brining Hiro closer. Wudin grabs Hiro by the face and plunges his fist into his chest throwing him back…Hiro crashes into a book shelf coughing up blood

Hiro: "What the hell was that?!"

Wudin: "A power out of your imagination."

Hiro raises his hand to activate his power but nothing happens…he stares down at himself as he feels something missing within himself…

Hiro: "What did you do to me…where's my power…"

Wudin: "I erased it. Well more or so moved it to a different place…"

Hiro: "That's…impossible. You can't erase Yawe…that's the key thing that makes us human!"

Wudin: "You're human. I am a descendant of the Rullopian people. All Mahrogus are…you're nothing but a human who married into the clan…"

Hiro lunges forward throwing a punch at Wudin. The punch lands on his chest but breaks Hiros wrist instanly.

Hiro: "F-fuck…what are you planning?! Why are you doing this?!"

Wudin: "I want to bring order to the world. Like my father before me did…you're power is borrowed from us. So I took it…I will steal the Yawe of each human in the world and use it to resurrect my father."

Hiro: "That's highly impossible! Unless you've…read the…forbidden scrolls…"

Wudin: "Bingo! Every living being has Yawe. Even if its a little bit. Everything living organism is connected by that…but if you take away that connection then you're nothing…"

Hiro: "What does that mean…"

Wudin: "See for yourself…"

Hiro turns to Terra who is standing a few feet away holding her swollen throat…she stares at Hiro affraid and confused

Hiro: "Terra baby…it's me your father…come here…let's get out of here…"

..

.

Terra: "I…I don't know who you are…I'm scared."

Those words dig deep into Hiros heart. He turns to Wudin with a ghostly expression…he stands up holding his broken wrist

Hiro: "You're a monster…"

Wudin: "I'm not monster. Just a genius."

Hiro: "WHERE IS MY YAWE WUDIN?! WHERE IS MY POWER?!"

Wudin: "In the land of souls. That's where you'll be heading next…"
