Warriors Journey•Rise of the Demon part 4
chapter 4- First mission
" Its been a week since you started your training with Kenshi. You've really come far, Benjamin". Polo says as he walks onto the moss-covered stone floor of the training grounds.
It was just Ben, Kenshi and King Polo in special training spots near the ocean. It used to be used for heavy combat among stronger Demon Gaurd members.
Ben's forehead was dripping with sweat. He had never tried so hard before. He enjoyed it too, which was a rare thing. Ben was the kind of person to go along with life. Whatever happens, happens.
" I don't think I've gone so hard before", Ben said whipping his forehead free of sweat.
" Well, Ben I'm glad you're having so much fun. How does your katana feel", Polo said putting one hand over the other on his staff.
Ben looked at the sword he held with one hand. The handle was made of a soft and comfortable material that would absorb the impact of combat. The fabric had a beautiful transition of dark purple to a lighter pink. Ben didn't want those colors what the way the fabric was placed it looked as if dragon scales. The hilt was an all-white dragon. Same as the sheath, it was a white sheath with a golden dragon. The blade was average except for the word," Enlightenment " that ran down the middle of the blade.
" I have news for you…You're going on your first mission".
Ben was shocked and joyful underneath but he didn't want to show it Kenshi. He was becoming like a rival of sorts for him.
" That's fantastic!" Ben said holding in his emotions.
" And Kenshi, you're going with him", King Polo added.
Kenshi jumped." What!" He said viciously.
" What's the mission?" Ben interrupted.
" I have a boat being built in Portside. I need you two to retrieve it", King Polo answered.
"That's not even a real mission. My first mission was to slay the beast that lived in the waters of Gallomae. Retrieving a boat from Portside is significant to none!", Kenshi exclaimed.
" It doesn't matter. It's Ben's first mission and he needs supervision", King Polo explained.
Kenshi sulked in his own selfishness.
" Are we going right now?" Ben wondered.
King Polo nodded." As soon as possible. You'll be going through the portal atop the hill. You'll come out at Portside and sail the boat over. It should take three to four days".
" Can we go now!?" Ben asked as he looked up at Kenshi who had his arms crossed. " If we go now we'll be back sooner. So I guess so", Kenshi grunted.
Ben and Kenshi started to walk in the direction of the portal before King Polo stopped them.
" Wait! Ben, I have something for you".
He held a green Kimono with black decals. It was extremely similar to his own but slightly different.
Ben took it into his hands and then threw it around his shoulders." Thank you so much, King, but what's it for?" Polo picked his staff of the ground and said," Its a Kimono. It's used to protect you from demons. It is your first mission". They exchanged smiles, then Ben was off up the...
