Broken Tower Saga : The First Swordsman
The Maha Tower or The Broken Tower of Omega—some call it. It is a place of Dream, a place of myth, and a place of Chaos. Only a thousand among many get the chance to climb it each year. Wrik spent years to find this tower, ignoring his studies, University, but to no avail. Until a day when a letter came to his door with a pair of tickets to the tower. But before that, he had to appear in gruesome trials to enter the cruel Tower. ________________ Check out the other works: Chaos Cycle: The Eye of Genesis. ________________ [The novel is a bit slow compared to other webnovel. It picks up the pace from the 10th chapter or so.]
Hiding
Wrik woke up among the headaches, though he had not opened his eyes. Some visions came to him, something that he would rather not see. He heard the screaming of his mad mother, saw Lucas and Anton getting beaten by a few men. But Lucas and Anton in the vision were just boys, one was barely 14 while the other was around 12. He gritted his teeth unconsciously, and saw another boy, getting involved in the conflict.
His alter ego told him to not try to close the wall, but he did exactly that, getting conscious. Well, patching up would be the right words to describe it. The wall was already old with thousands of cracks in it. It had been protecting him since he was a kid, he did not know how much he could hold on to it.
