1 Massacre (1/2)

Year X768, Kingdom of Fiore

Kakuna Village, a respected town in the Kingdom of Fiore. The reason for that was because the Head of the Village was a respected member of the council. He was one of the people who actually did some work in the council rather than just sit back and watch the drama.

There was not a single one in the council who had a problem with him, his name was Hansuke Ozutsuki. Hansuke Ozutsuki was a man on his thirties, his build was rather average with little dark skin tone.

He had just returned back to the village from a Council Meeting, after coming back, he took a glass of water from his wife as he glanced at his young son. His son was two years old but the mysterious thing was that being around him got everyone relaxed.

It was like they were recharged of the energy they used. Hansuke Ozutsuki wasn't sure of the reason for it but he prayed that it wouldn't be anything bad for his son. He had heard of infants dying due to the excess magic energy, so he was quite worried about him.

It is because their bodies are not able to get used to the excess magic energy. Suddenly, he heard the sound of the glass dropping on the floor. He went to the kitchen and saw his wife, Rena Ozutsuki on her knees and picking up the glass on the floor.

He went towards her and helped her pick up the glass then suddenly a loud scream startled them both. It was because it wasn't their Son's scream, no, it was the scream of a grown-up man. He heard him shouting, ”NOO!!! PLEASE NOO!!”

Suddenly everything turned silent for some moments before they heard a loud scream, ”AHHHH.....WHY DID YOU KILL MY SON!!?? WHY!? I WILL KILL YOU!!” His scream woke up Shun Ozutsuki that was comfortably sleeping in the house.

He rubbed his eyes as he loudly asked for his request, ”fwather, plwease stay silente, I am slewping…” He once again fell asleep before he woke up as he heard a loud shriek of a Women, it was so loud that even he knew that something bad was happening.

Hansuke Ozutsuki called out for his guards, ”Guards!! Come Here!!” Two Grown Up men came in front of him and asked, ”Lord, your orders!” Hansuke had a cold and calm expression on his face as he questioned them, ”Just what is happening in this village?”

One of the guards spoke, ”Lord, a cult for reviving Zeref has entered the Village, the other guards are intercepting the cult members and preventing them from killing the villagers.” Hansuke Ozutsuki was surprised as he heard that, he couldn't understand why would the Zeref's cult enter this village.

Why would they start killing the villagers? Just what did they do? He had read a lot about the Black Wizard, some said that he was a monster who had made many demons so that he could rule the world.

Some said that he could kill people as easily as eating pie and no Wizard was his match but it was said to be 400 years ago. He didn't know how much of the rumors were true or lies but he did know that wherever Zeref's name was mentioned, it wasn't a piece of good news.

He stared at the guards and commanded them, ”Alright then, you both stay here. I shall go and intercept the Cult members.” What could the guards say other than nodding their heads? Hansuke looked towards Rena and had an apologetic expression, ”Stay well dear.”

Rena replied with some tears, ”Same for you dear. Please be careful!” Hansuke gave her a bright grin as he stated, ”You think I will die from these members. Don't forget that I am a Lightning Mage, I can always run away.”

She nodded as she let him depart the house and picked up Shun Ozutsuki in her hands. Shun asked his mother in a curious tone, ”Mother, why did father leave? Does he have some work to do?”
