Create a new myth?

After a warm shower, Sabastian sat in front of Kenobi who was drinking hot chocolate.

"Have some," Kenobi said urging Sabastian to pour himself hot chocolate on the empty mug from the Thermo flask.

Pouring himself a mug full of hot chocolate, Sabastian asked Kenobi.

"Susanoo?"

"Susanoo is his title. Like mine Onikiri, the Demon Slayer. His is Susanoo." Sipping on his hot chocolate, Kenobi answered.

"He is your sister's disciple and the fastest swordsman I've ever faced other than your sister. Compare to you, he is much faster than you." Kenobi started smiling.

Sabastian raised his eyebrows hearing about this 'Susanoo' who is faster than himself!

"I never heard of any Susanoo from my sister..."

Kenobi chuckled.

"She doesn't want you to learn more about her mercenary organisation or the abyss more than you need to. As that saying goes, when you gaze into the abyss the abyss gazes into you."

"True." Nodding Sabastian responded.

"Speaking of organisations, do you know anything about this new organisation popping up in Star City and Starfall city? They are expanding very quickly!" Kenobi narrowed his eyes observing Sabastian.

"Nope." Sabastian's heart skipped a beat when Kenobi talked about this 'new' organisation.

'Should I change my name?' Sabastian thought in his mind.

His moniker in Nameless is Weiss.

When contacting Kenobi, Sabastian gave him the name Weiss!

It's obvious if Kenobi founds out anything about the leaders.

Nameless' Weiss is a swordsman in all white.

Sabastian is all 'White' from his skin colour to hair and clothes. Everything is white except for his eyes.

He's also a swordsman.

'I messed up! I messed up bad!!!' Sabastian said in his mind.

"I heard somethings about the organisation from the streets, but that's all I know. Do you want me to look at this 'Nameless' organisation?" Sabastian said BS'ing.

(A/N: Whoa there Sabastian! You're giving out the name of the organisation. But no one knows about this organisation's name yet. Lol. The name is also Nameless! Hahaha.)

"No, it's alright. I was tasked to find out about this organisation by the 2nd rank. I will try to find out about them myself. So ask away any questions you have unless it's related to the Abyss, I can answer anything!"

Sabastian thought for a while before asking Kenobi about it.

"There are many martial artists and people of the archaic path. There are many swordsmen but why isn't there more Swords Saints?"

"Hahaha!" Hearing Sabastian, Kenobi started laughing.

Sabastian was puzzled by Kenobi's sudden abrupt laughter.

'Did I say something funny?' Sabastian thought.

"Haha, that was a good laugh! Tell me Sabastian, how strong is your sister, Onyx?" Kenobi asked.

Thinking for a while, Sabastian answered.

"Almost as strong as my parents, If sister didn't discard her path then she would have been a Sword Saint by now."

Kenobi shook his head.

"No, even still she wouldn't have been as strong as your parents. Your sister is strong but she is not as strong as a Sword Saint. A sword Saint is someone who stands at the peak of all Swordsmen. Your sister is considered a Half-Saint, who had the potential to be a Sword Saint but not anymore. Compare to a level of Sword Saint and your sister's level of Half-Saint there's a huge disparity. The Abyss has many Half-Saints but on this earth, there are only two Swords Saints and the two are your parents."

"But there are people comparable to your parents, such as Tessiana Blood. A rare genius comes once a millennium. There was the Nobless, Rose Prince. The other, current Ah'Shif of the Tevittar tribe. There are some members in Death Parade but you will learn about them once you enter the Abyss. There are three people at the Rothschilde family. The Ji Clan have some and the Sakazaki clan also have some. You can say all the Sacred families and clans at least have one person comparable to your parents. The Abyss have many but most of them are weaker than the Sacred families and clans. Just because you are a candidate and winning the selection, you will become a Sword Saint? No, if you want to become a Sword Saint! Then Sabastian, you have to KILL a Sword Saint in a life or death duel to become one." Kenobi Solemnly said looking into Sabastian's eyes.

Sabastian was surprised at first hearing new information about the world of the Abyss, the Sacred families and clans but when he heard that he have to kill one of his parents to become a Swords Saint? His face paled and he shook his head in denial thinking of a certain possibility!

"That can't be!"

"But I can't, since the swordsmanship that I practice doesn't allow me to take lives... I'm sure there must be some other ways, right?" Sabastian questioned Kenobi.

"There isn't."

Kenobi sat silent.

He let Sabastian digest this horrific truth.

It took 10 minutes to calm Sabastian's mind.

"Thank you for the information, Sir Kenobi." Sabastian said getting up from his seat.

"Also, thank you for the fight. It helped me improve myself."

"The pleasure is all mine, Weiss. You gave me a thrilling fight! I hope we can spar some other time, what do you say?" Said Kenobi smiling.

"I hope so too in the future!"

The two talked as Kenobi escorted Sabastian outside.

~~~

At midnight, Sabastian was doing his routine six thousand repetitive strokes.

"Yo, wassup!" Aaron called out to Sabastian.

*swish*

A wind blade flew and hit the wall.

*chip*

"Five thousand nine hundred ninety-nine." Counted Sabastian as he slashed the air in front of him.

"Six thousand!" For the final strike, Sabastian used every strength on his body to slash the Air.

*swish*

*chip*

"Wheeeew!" Sabastian exhaled a deep breath.

Aaron saw the state of the wall, it had lots of blade marks on it. The paint fell off, it was chipped a lot too.

If Sabastian does another set of his routine, then there will be a hole in the wall for sure. Aaron thought in his mind.

"It seems like You're in a bad mood, Basti..." Aaron said staring at his best friend.

Sabastian sighed before replying to Aaron.

"Yeah, I'm in a shi**y mood today." Plopping down on the floor, Sabastian tapped the floor a couple of times.

Aaron walking towards to Sabastian, sat in front of Sabastian on the floor.

"What's wrong?" Aaron asked.

"Where do I begin?"

"You can start with your swordsmanship. You have been struggling for a while, but looking at the wall? It seems that you figured that out on your own."

Aaron can see that Sabastian seemed lost.

His eyes looked almost empty.

Last time Aaron saw this look on his best friend was in their previous life at a war where Sabastian sacrificed thousands of his soldiers to gain an advantage to win that war.

"I found out some information about the Sacred families and clans. A new revelation about something, as you can see made me feel s*it! So I'm in a shi**y mood right now."

"Open up, bro! There's no one here beside us. You can be as vulnerable as you want, I'm not Artoria but I'm the greatest magician to ever lived who is also your best friend. 'Ian Devon Ceres' is here to listen to all of your rants!" Smiling goofily, Aaron tapped in Sabastian's shoulder like he used to do in their previous life when Sabastian is feeling down like this.

Sabastian smiled.

'At least I have someone from my previous life here.' Sabastian said in his mind.

Sabastian took a deep breath before sighing.

He told Aaron about everything that happened today and what he learned from Kenobi.

"Wow! That's some messed up stuff." Aaron commented after hearing everything.

"Tell me about it..." Sabastian muttered holding his head.

"Well, I guess there goes your dream of being a Sword Saint... Since that title doesn't have any fate with you, so why bother with it?" Aaron shrugged before gazing deep into Sabastian's eyes.

"Since you can't be a mythical Sword Saint? Then be something else, Basti. Be yourself! With your swordsmanship, you can't be the 'Sword Demon' you were in your past life. So be something else, create a different legend and become a myth that no one can ever forget!"

"Write an Epic tale of your legends." Aaron.

"Where the legends will be passed on and become a myth on its own? You're telling me the same thing what I once told you back in Arterra! Tsk..." Sabastian clicked his tongue before forming a smile on his face.

"If you can do that, I can do that too!"

"That's the spirit!" Aaron hollered bumping his fist on Sabastian's shoulder.

Aaron yawning got up.

"I'm going to sleep, it's late I have some work to do at 8'o clock in the morning."

"Yeah, me too. I'm too tired after working out! I don't have the energy to shower, will go straight to bed." Sabastian replied getting up.

The two talked while walking towards their room.
