Chapter 8 - Spirit Weapon

While seth was thinking where to go in order to pass time, Jared told him that there was an island where famous blacksmith's live in. He wanted to go there to get a new weapon for him so seth just agreed rightaway because there was nothing else to do anyway.

The place that they were going to go was named Smith Island it took them half a month before they reached the island when they arrived on the island they were shocked there were so many blacksmith shop scattered everywhere Jared immediately went off and searched for his fated sword.

Seth was just strolling around town when he saw a commotion happening. a little girl was carrying 3 swords when she suddenly bumped someone " im sorry I didn't saw you mister sorry for bumping into you." the man she bumped was a started cursing at the poor girl " you brat do you know who we are? " the little girl kept on apologizing when the they saw the 3 swords the girl carried they were shocked then they immediately had greedy faces.

"Little girl we accept your apology if you give us 1 of those sword he pointed the with a blue scabbard. the little girl shook her head rejecting them immediately " I can't this is sword is my family heirloom. " The pirate didn't even think twice and immediately grabbed the sword he didn't care if its a heirloom or not.

when he was about to grab the sword he was blocked by a dark purple scythe while hearing a bored man's voice beside them " big guy, is it so fun to rob a kid? why don't you try and rob me then?" When he looked beside he saw a man with blue hair with blue eyes with an open coat with no shirt inside black pants and a neck tie on his neck was there.

He recognizes this man because he was the talk of the town this past few months with a bounty of 250,000,000 beli Dark Scythe Seth!!! the pirate immediately smiled saying " ooh if it isn't mr. seth im honored to meet you sir. about the sword we were just playing around with the cute little girl. we were already about to leave so mr. seth have a good day." with that the pirate and his gang immediately ran off scared that seth will call them back.

Seth then looked at the little girl who was looking at him with fear " hello little girl my name is seth" the girl just nodded and murmured soflty " mine is Aby ". " Nice to me you Aby are you on your way home? want me to escort you?" when aby heard him she can't helped but ask " will you steal my family heirloom? "

To this seth explained that he doesn't use a sword and then showed his scythe telling her that this was his weapon. the girl upon hearing him explain brightened up and she held his hand and went to her home.

When they reached to there home or you can call it a shop. they saw a old man gray hair with black eyes wearing a blacksmith suit " grandpa im home I brought a guest with me. " oh hello Aby who is this guest who brought with you?" Aby the explained what happened to her and how shooed the pirates.

The old man kept thanking seth for saving his grand daugther " Old guy can you explain to me why did that pirate that blue scabbard sword?" hearing this the old guy firtst introduced himself " My name is Roy and that sword is my family heirloom it was gifted to my grandfather by a well known blacksmith. " Seth asked again " so what's special about this sword then? " Roy then explained the legendary swords to seth from the 50 ryo wazamono, 21 O wazamono and 12 Saijo O wazamono. Roy continued " This sword is one of the 50 ryo wazamono it's name is "Dawn".

Seth hearing the explanation pondered if what kind of grade his scythe was he asked Roy that if he can know what kind of grade his scythe will be compared to the 3 types of sword. he then took his scythe out shocking Roy the old guy looked at seth asking how he did it. to this seth just smiled not bothering to explain. Roy while seeing this didn't continued asking he knew everyone has a secret.

He then proceed to examine the dark purple scythe when he was about to hold the scythe he was immediately thrown backwards. everyone was shocked including seth he didn't know what happened roy on the other hand was staring at scythe with awe he then processed his thoughts got up and explained to seth " Your scythe based from the books that i've read is what you call a spirit weapon." " A WHAT?!?!?!" seth exclaimed he knew what a spirit was it has a sentience will grow along side you it is pracitcally the highest grade anyone can have hahahhaha that guy who gave me this was so thoughful he gave a spirit weapon rather than a normal one.

Roy upon seeing Seth's shocked expression contiuen his explanation " A spirit weapon has a sentience it grows along it's wielder and when it choses a suitable partner no one except them can wield the spirit weapon. In order to make the spirit weapon stronger it either has to eat rare ore's,Swords or human blood. from what I can see from your scythe it looks kinda hungry."

( Ofcourse it's hungry it didn't got to eat a single ore,sword or even drank blood this past 3 years it must be really pissed.) thought seth while looking at his scythe. " So roy can you give me some of your swords don't worry I will pay for it." roy immediately accepted his request he was also curious how does a spirit weapon eat.
