Chronos' Weapon

Now this young boy's, Rex's, Training started, with various masters teaching him various things. Was this the beginning of something new? Was this the path that will make Rex, the strongest of all times? 

There are too many things to think about, but it will be saved for another time. 

His training successfully started and a few years passed too. So what did he do in the training? - That is also for the next time.

(After Some Years)

As usual, Rex was working hard to increase the endurance of his body. The basic body building training was no more effective because he had reached the peak state for his age, now he was trained with various things.

All the masters chose different times to train him, he was forced to build a hut for himself to stay. No one would ever dare to enter this forest due to the presence of various beasts and due to this, it was rather peaceful since the training was going on smoothly. Of course, the beasts were present to destroy that peace, but they were no match for him as the training progressed.

Rex hunted many beasts, trained various styles, including the styles that the masters' had originally trained during their times. After this, he was ready. By ready, it means that his body was now completely perfected to hold the containers (Emblems), however, he was instructed to do something else before he could activate his Emblems and use their powers.

Yes, he had yet to use their powers and was restricted to do so by the masters.

Liu approached Rex and said, "Young lad, it's been a few years already since you have trained with us, about 10 years I think, and your body has been completely refined. Your knowledge has transcended that of any normal human and now I think you will be able to use the power of Emblems."

"Not only have you perfectly inherited everything from us, but also have developed those techniques further."

"...", Rex was dumbfounded by this sudden confession.

Everyone at the same time said, "Yes, we had never seen someone as sincere and respectful as you."

Rex had no idea why they were saying this, at least, not until Liu started speaking again.

"You just have one last thing to do for us..."

"Master...?"

"I..."

"In fact, we want you to get Chronos' Weapon!", he said with a raised voice.

"..."

"Crow's weapon right?"

"Haha, not crows weapon. It's called Chronos' Weapon."

"It is a strong weapon which has transcended the S rank barrier!"

"...", for some reason, Rex didn't seem to be surprised after hearing that.

"It is believed that the Chronos' Weapon chooses its own master, so,I want you to go and try to become its master.", he said.

"Uh..."

"Do you think that the weapon would choose me?", Rex asked.

"Why yes. We all believe it will, but if it doesn't then too it is fine. There are no worries. Just return here even if you aren't chosen before returning to your kingdom.", Liu said.

"Master..."

"I will definitely come back. Do you really think that I would runaway for the second time?", Rex asked.

"Haha, I believe you.", after that Liu looked at the other masters and then turned towards Rex again.

"Rex, you already know that the Zhular Mountains  are connected to this forest but you might have not heard about the cave that is situated deep in the mountains."

"..."

"You need to go there and find the weapon which is inside the cave."

"However, it isn't easy."

"There are totally three trials that you will face before gaining the weapons.", he said.

"Three?"

"Yes, first is to search the cave. Second, you have to defeat the guardian and third will be the taming the weapon."

"While it is believed that the weapon does choose its own owner, it can also be tamed and can be used for some time."

"Yes master, I understood. But do you know how long it would take me to bring the weapon back?", he asked.

"Look at this kid! He is already thinking that he will be able to bring the weapon back!", Liu started laughing and others did the same.

Ziine then suddenly said, "Try kiddo, I believe you can do it!"

"Yes, you will definitely be able to do it.", others started saying too.

"Yes, I will definitely be back.", Rex said.

Liu then said, "Yes! And don't waste any more time. Go quick! And be careful of other beasts that are there in the mountains!"

"Yes! I'll be back in 3 days Masters! Just Wait!", right after Rex says that, he prepares from eatables and water and runs towards the Zhular Mountains.

"Grand Master, why, why didn't you tell him the truth?", Ziine asked.

"It's not the time yet.", Liu said.

"But, what if he doesn't return in three days?"

"No one had ever found the weapon in 3 days. Even for you, it took 3 years, didn't it?", Ziine asked.

"Yes..."

"If he fails to return within 3 days, then we will never see him again.", Ziine said with a wavy voice.

"Just have faith in him!", Liu said in a low voice.

The atmosphere was a little awkward and they were all gloomy.

Rex was very determined and with this determination, he entered the mountains!
