Suddenly, Kent turned towards the Supre Sword Magus, his eyes narrowed with suspicion.
"Why are you doing this, Supre? Why did you announce that I'm your distant relative and secret disciples? I don't think you are a man who takes orders from soone." Kent asked, his voice calm but firm, his gaze unwavering as he sought the truth behind the Sword Magus's actions.
The Supre Sword Magus smiled warmly at Kent. His smile was broad, but there was sothing behind it—an undercurrent of hidden motives.
"Who would deny such a lucky opportunity? I am basking in great fa and attention now that you are my secret disciple." He replied, his tone light as if discussing the weather.
Kent frowned at the response. The words were too simple, too convenient. He could feel there was more beneath the surface, sothing the Supre wasn't saying. "Tell the real reason, Supre," Kent pressed, his voice growing more serious, more demanding.
The Supre Sword Magus, startled by Kent's perceptiveness, let the smile fade from his face. His eyes, sharp as the blade he wielded, took on a more serious cast.
"You've always been quick, Kent," he said, almost as if speaking to himself. "Very well, I'll give you the truth."
He paused, his eyes drifting to the distant horizon as if searching for the right words. Then, with a deep breath, he began.
"A great war is coming. A war that will shake the very foundations of the Nine Realms."
Kent's breath caught in his throat. "A war?" he echoed, his mind racing. "What war? What could be so catastrophic that it involves all nine realms?"
"A war between your father and your mother. This is not just any simple conflict. This is a feud that has been simring for decades, a feud with the power to engulf all the realms in flas. Your father is a powerful man, with the backing of Jason and the Nine Realms Association. He is a force to be reckoned with, one who has cultivated alliances and power across multiple realms.
But your mother… She is no less formidable. She belongs to the Underworld Sworn Wizards."
Kent stared at the Supre, the words sinking in slowly. "Underworld Sworn Wizards?!" he repeated, the na unfamiliar yet nacing.
The Supre Sword Magus nodded, extending his arm slowly. As he did, the sleeve of his robe fell back, revealing a tattoo of a black sword etched into his skin. The tattoo seed to pulse with an otherworldly energy, drawing Kent's gaze like a magnet.
"The Underworld Sworn Wizards are an ancient order, hidden from the eyes of most. They are divided into nine factions, each represented by a symbol—each symbol is a weapon of power and destruction.
A fist, a sword, a spear, a dagger, a mace, a staff, a hand fan, an arrow, and a whip. Each faction has a head, and the symbol of the faction head is golden."
Kent's eyes widened as the Supre Sword Magus continued, his words painting a picture of a world Kent had never known existed.
"I belong to the Sword Faction," the Supre said, his voice steady. "Your mother is the head of the Fist Faction."
Kent's head spun with the revelation. His mother… the head of a faction within this shadowy organization? The implications were staggering.
"But what does this have to do with the war?" Kent asked, his voice barely more than a whisper.
The Supre Sword Magus sighed, a long, drawn-out sound that spoke of the burden he carried. "The factions have always existed in the shadows, manipulating events from behind the scenes. But the feud between your father and mother… it's more than just a personal grudge. It's a clash of ideologies, of power structures that have been in place for centuries.
Your father, with the backing of Jason and the Nine Realms Association, represents the established order. Your mother, and the Underworld Sworn Wizards, represent sothing else—a challenge to that order, a force that could overturn the balance of power in all nine realms."
Kent felt a cold chill run down his spine. "So this war… it's inevitable?"
The Supre Sword Magus nodded slowly. "Yes. And when it cos, it will be unlike anything the realms have ever seen. Alliances will be forged and broken. Families will be torn apart. The very fabric of the Nine Realms will be at stake."
Kent's mind was a whirl of thoughts and emotions. The truth was overwhelming, but one question still gnawed at him.
The Supre Sword Magus looked at Kent with a mixture of sorrow and determination. "From the mont you received the War God inheritance, You are at the center of it all, Kent. Whether you want it or not, you are a key player in this war. Your bloodline, your power… they make you a target and a weapon. Both sides will seek to use you, to bend you to their will.
That is why I have chosen you as my secret disciple—to protect your past. Once your past is known to the outer world, this war will take shape."
Kent's heart sank. He had always known his life was destined for sothing great, sothing beyond the ordinary. But to be caught in the middle of a war that could destroy everything he knew? It was almost too much to bear.
The Supre Sword Magus could see the turmoil in Kent's eyes and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "I won't lie to you. The road ahead will be difficult, perhaps even impossible at tis. But you must stay strong. You must rember who you are and what you stand for. In the end, the choices you make will determine not just your fate, but the fate of the entire realm."
Kent took a deep breath, trying to steady himself. He had faced countless challenges before, but this… this was sothing else entirely. "What do I do now?" he asked, his voice steadying as he spoke.
The Supre Sword Magus smiled, a glimr of pride in his eyes. "You continue your cultivation. You prepare yourself for the battles to co. And when the ti is right, you will know what to do. Trust in your instincts, Kent. They have served you well so far." Stay updated with empire
Kent nodded. "Thank you, Supre," he said, his voice filled with determination.
As Kent left the grand hall, his mind was filled with thoughts of the war to co and of the mysterious Underworld Sworn Wizards. The world as he knew it had changed.
The Supre Sword Magus watched him go, a sense of foreboding settling over him. He knew the war would co, and he knew it would be devastating. But he also knew that Kent was the key to it all—the one who could tip the balance, for better or worse.
