Finding an Elder (Part 3)

Dai was smiling at Yu's fainted form as she handled herself nicely with the sword. He was glad that Yu could handle holding the sword. He would say use, but considering that her strength was sapped from an attack that sent out shockwaves when the sword had hit the ground, he couldn't say use yet. "I felt the power." An elderly voice spoke out all of the sudden. Dai switched his gaze around the area and his eyes fell onto an older man that had white hair, but Dai could tell that the hair was naturally white.

"Who are you?" Dai demanded, willing to fight to protect his wife and his army. The older man raised up his hands, showing Dai that he meant no harm.

"Don't attack me, please. I felt the power of the Sword of the Angel and I just wanted to see who can use the power of one of the Holy Sword." He explained to Dai, who lost his hostile stance and was now showing his interest.

"Are you an Elder?" Dai asked, gazing at Yu, who was still out. The older man was glad that Dai knew what he was.

"Yes, I am. Unfortunately, I have only 43, so in age, I'm not an elder. But, in knowing about the Holy Swords and how to use them, I am an Elder. You may call me Elder Aku." Aku tells Dai. Dai smiled at Aku.

"Elder Aku, would you mind training my wife? She has the Sword of the Angel." Dai tells Aku. Aku smiled.

"Finally, the Wielder of the most powerful Holy Sword has arrived!" Aku announced happily. Dai was shocked at Aku's words. Most powerful sword? He gaped at the thought and he turned back to Yu. You are one in the million, Yu. He thought.

"By the way, I'm a demon." Dai announced. He wanted to see how the Elder would react.

"Who cares about races?" This was Elder Aku's response. Dai smiled at this as he found another person that didn't discriminate between other races. "Stereotypes are so negative." He added. He couldn't stand the morons who just think that other races need to be destroyed just to help their own races.

"I can't believe I found another human being that doesn't mind other races existing." Dai tells Aku, who smirked at him.

"Who said anything about being human?" Aku asked Dai. Dai then gazed at him in confusion, but Aku didn't elaborate more on his words.

Dai let his words go as he heard Yu mumbling to herself as she regained her consciousness. Yu pulled herself up and when she saw Aku, she swung the sword behind her to rest it against her back. She approached Aku and she started to speak to him. "Hey, Old Man, are you stronger than me?" Yu asked, shocking Dai and the army. They had never seen Yu be so rude to anyone before.

"I'm sorry about her. I don't why she's acting like that." Dai answered Aku honestly. Aku just laughed it off.

"I think I know what it is. When a new Wielder meets the Elder that's supposed to train them, their first instinct is to be rude to them." Aku explained to Dai, who was shocked at this. Testing their strength, perhaps? He thought. He gazed back at his wife, who was willing to shred her body to pieces to fight against the Elder.
