Shin sobbed silently with his face planted to the pillow attempting to muffle his cries.

”Why,” He said between the tears and sobs. ”Why didn't you let me stay. why did you stay? why make someone weak your pupil. why.” His cries turned to whispers.”why me? There were so many better people could have been chosen” Shin sat silent for a while. He began to remember his master and began to think ”He knew...he knew that I wanted glory and he gave me the chance to get it.”Shin's sniffled and wiped away his tears. ” I cannot waste this chance given to me.” Shin steeled himself. He must make the most of this. After a few moments of thanking Shu in his heart. Shin went to bed now exited for the classes to come.

***********

In a chamber above Shin's room. a round table in a large room in occupied by 7 individuals. The large frame King was one of them sitting in the middle. One of the men in a black cloak began to speak.

”Is this information reliable? I mean he is nothing but a child! How could we trust him?” The man said. The King spoke ”Shu would not give his blades up willingly. He chose this boy to take his place” The King said calmly.

”It could have been forcefully taken. The boy could be a spy from one of the grand master's.” The man said worried for his King's judgment.” there is something you all don't know about the other grand master's and I.” The King said. ”We, of course, have abilities beyond normal and some of us can even enchant.” some of the men looked to each other in disbelief. Enchanting is a rare ability which takes concentration, and endurance.a country is sometimes measured by who has the best enchanters.

”Shu was one such person” The King continued ”and he enchanted the blades with powerful enchantments. It is called *Message infusion* and something unknown at the moment.” He stabs the knife into the table, and the bottom of the blade began to light up. A Video began to come from the light. it was the moment when he first showed the blades to Shin, up to Shu's death. ”Do you all understand now?”The hooded figures began to nod their heads. ”Good. Now that you understand I will be teaching the child from now on any objections?” The King looked around the room. No one objected and silence enveloped the room. ”Good. Lessons will start tomorrow with Monsoon. That is all.” the hooded men began to leave the room.

Shin who lay sleeping in his room sneezed himself awake ” huh mhm” and jolted up before falling asleep again.
