38 Destined to

The sound of drops of water hitting the ground could be heard. It was peaceful and looked somewhat calming. The light slowly illuminated the place, and if one looked inside the beautiful cave, they would see a young man that defied that which one would call handsome.

Next to him laid a peaceful looking bird while it slept. On the young man's legs put a scythe while he had his eyes closed. Jax had been in this state for a couple of weeks now he had been conversing with Eien as he traveled the world. Thus Rose had been tired out and slowly slept next to him. At the moment Jax had entered his mindscape once more where Eien greeted him.

Eien looked at Jax and spoke up in his old voice that seemed to contain measurable amounts of knowledge. "Jax its time for you to meet someone" over the past few weeks Eien had told Jax many types of stories from his time as a weapon. How he was once used by the god of love. Jax didn't know who Eien wanted him to meet, but just a second later they seemed to teleport.

A massive throne room entered into his sight. It looked so majestic golden statues of what seemed to be mythical creatures. Art that seemed to defy what art was it was as if some of the pieces were lifelike. And then there was a massive throne where a handsome man sat.

Jax didn't know who this was, but he didn't feel scared or threatened by this mans presence. Instead, the man gave a calming sensation. Suddenly the man looked at Jax, and his voice entered into the ears of Jax. "Jax I have been expecting you" it was as if this man before him knew who he was and what he had done every second of his life.

Yet Jax didn't know how to answer towards the man before him. Thus the man slightly chuckled knowing that the young man before him didn't know what to say. "You may be wondering who I am exactly," the man said while getting up from his throne. This time Jax could fully observe the man before him. He looked middle-aged with white hair and blue eyes a rather manly face, but still, it seemed handsome he stood tall at the height of 6'3.

The man was slowly walking forward while he looked at Eien with a gaze as if he had seen a long lost friend. "I haven't seen you for a long time Eien I hope you are still feeling okay," the man said with care that seemed rather unfitting towards a weapon. Yet Jax didn't find it weird after all he had a friendship with Eien himself. Thus the man finally stood in front of Jax.

Usually, Jax would feel threatened by this since he didn't know the person in front of him. But to the contrary, he felt rather at home as if he was looking at his older brother. He sensed no ill intent from the man, but Jax had to be honest when he tried to detect the man's strength.. it was as if he possessed no strength yet Jax felt that when he would move, he could die without even knowing how. He had not even felt this type of strength from his master.

Thus Jax knew not to act arrogant around this man. A voice could be heard, and the man could be seen talking, "before I introduce myself Eien should first tell you of his destiny."

"Eien what does he mean with destiny," Jax asked rather confused. Eien just sighed while he looked straight at Jax, "I was going to tell you, but I suppose this is a good time for it then."

Eien looked at Jax with a slightly nostalgic face while he talked, "I was used by the God of Love he was a man worthy to wield me. I have seen many battles many of our comrades killed yet I lived as his weapon for years to come.

Eventually, you were born the boy who was destined to wield me the boy who was destined for something great."

Jax looked confused while he asked, "what do you mean by my destiny?"

Thus Eien spoke up, "Jax I know you will be shocked once you hear this, but you are…
