Chapter 2: The Power Of The Three Thousand Worlds

"Martis! There you are, I've been searching for you." Says Khufra, the very first friend of Martis

"What do you want?"

"Well, I see you're training again but, we have a problem."

"And that is?"

"Someone named Terizla is causing Havoc in the palace, he was breaking and killing everything and everyone in sight. He said his name and will wait for you inside the palace, we should hurry up!"

"Tss, I thought you could handle him yourself."

"He defeated hundreds of Ashuras, he's scary as hell!"

"Hell never scare me, I don't fear anything or anyone, let's go."

"Sure!"

Martis and Khufra managed to reached the palace, the whole place was wrecked and a man with green auras around him is sitting on the king's throne.

"Martis, The new king of Ashuras. You couldn't even save your own palace, how could you be worthy of something like the Ashura Blade? Don't make me laugh!"

"So you're Terizla? I haven't heard your name but you must be pretty popular."

"I don't really care if you don't know me, I'm here to end your life! and I will be the new King of Ashura!"

Terizla stands up and run towards Martis.

"I'll show you how death can be painful! Hahaha!"

Terizla starts to fight Martis but every attacks are getting dodge by Martis, he can't land a single punch.

Martis jumps backward and breaths in disappointment, "Is that the best you can do?"

"I'm not even being serious, try and attack me!"

Martis accelerates toward Terizla and hit his face with a single punch out of knowhere, but he is not budging at all.

"Is that the best you can do?" Terizla smirks and grabs Martis' arms and throw him at the ceiling. Terizla then reach for his Hammer and swing it towards martis and gets hit by the hammer.

"Gah!" Blood spits out of Martis' mouth.

"Martis! let me help!" Khufra said while running towards him.

"No! stay there! Let me handle this!"

"I'm not done yet!" Terizla continues to hit Martis with everything he got and he sent Martis down to the floor, paralyzing his whole body.

"Curses! Martis!" shouts Khufra.

"You're all talk. before I end you I'll tell you who I am! I am Terizla! The Deity of the Three Thousand Worlds! With your current state you will never conquer it! Give up and just die!"

Terizla holds his hammer up.

"One defeat, means nothing!" Red auras are surrounding the body of Martis, his wounds are quickly healing up and his eyes are becoming those of real beasts.

"What?! What is happening?!" Martis stands up slowly and looks at Terizla.

"Is this... The power of the Three Thousand Worlds?" said Khufra while smiling.

"No, it's impossible! He can't be worthy!"

"I'll beat you to death!" Martis disappears infront of Terizla and appears behind him.

"Hu-" Martis kicks Terizla's face and is send flying outside the palace. Martis then grabs Terizla's Foot and throws him in the air, he jumps up and continuously punches Terizla mid-air. His body is all broken and blood is all over him.

"Amazing, so that's the power of the Three Thousand Worlds? He might be able to wield the strongest swords!" Khufra said while watching the fight.

(Flashback)

"Martis, how did you received the power of the Three Thousand Worlds?"

"Received? well, my father gave it to me when I was a baby. Then he told me that no amount of training is enough to handle the real power of the Three Thousand Worlds, I didn't understand what he means by that but, he believed in me."

"Is that so? Then, when will I get a chance to see your power?"

"I don't know, but for now just help me with my training will you?"

"Sure!"

(End of Flashback)

"I fear no one, not you or even the Three Thousand Worlds." Martis clenches his fist and kneel down and face the broken body of Terizla.

"Lower your head, peasant." Terizla laughs at Martis while coughing out blood.

"Do you really think that you can conquer the Three Thousand Worlds? Let me tell you everything I know, but before that..."

Terizla transform into a soul and floats infront of Martis.

"What are you?"

"Like I said, I am the deity of the Three Thousand Worlds. But I am not the only one with this kind of power. There are more monsters that are stronger than me and you have no chance on defeating them."

Martis tries to grab Terizla and he failed to do so.

"You can't touch me, I am a soul. Before I go back I will tell you how scary it is to enter these worlds. you'll face thousands of enemies and each worlds are getting tougher and tougher. Never say that I didn't warn you, I'm good enough to warn you Martis, I was just sent out by my master to test you."

"Test me? you're so weak you're not even worth half of my power."

"What?! Once I get back my body I'll tear you apart! Just you wait!"

"Martis! are you okay? And what happened to you?!" says Khurfa showing up to Martis and Terizla.

"Yeah, I'm okay. We're done here, let the other Ashuras fix the palace." Martis walks away.

"Wait, before you go." Terizla said.

"What?"

"We will meet again, but this time in the Three Thousand Worlds! And your defeat will be absolute! Hahahaha!" and he vanishes completely.

"What the hell is wrong with that guy?" Asks Khufra.

"Khufra, I need you stay here and help the other Ashuras. I'm ready to go to the Three Thousand Worlds."

"Are you going in there without any weapons?"

"With the power of the Three Thousand Worlds that my late father bestowed upon me, I will only bring myself and will prove worthy of the strongest swords, the Ashura blade."
