Mystery of the Eternal Blade

King Cedric nodded in approval. "Very well, you can join us." Then, King Cedric turned his gaze towards Kai. "You're Kai, right? I need to talk to you in private."

Eiera immediately questions King Cedric, "Why can't you talk in front..."

Kai interrupted Eiera, "He must have a good reason for this." Kai shifted his gaze to the King Cedric, then continued. "I'll talk to you in private."

Kai stood up from his chair. He followed the King Cedric into a private chamber. Inside, there were only two seats positioned around a small round table. The room was dimly lit; the only source of light was a glass window.

As Kai entered the chamber, King Cedric closed the door behind him. Hearing the door being locked, Kai looked at the King with suspicion.

"Please take a seat," King Cedric said calmly, gesturing towards one of the chairs. Kai hesitated for a moment, but eventually, he took a seat.

Seated face to face, a few moments later, Kai broke his silence. "What do you want to talk to me about?" Kai inquired.

"About that," King Cedric began, his tone hesitant. "It can wait a moment. I have to check something first."

"What do..." Before Kai could finish, a sense of uneasiness washed over him. Suddenly, three armored soldiers appeared behind him, their invisibility undone by their magic spell. The armored soldiers immediately drew their swords to attack Kai.

As the soldiers lunged at Kai to attack him, the chamber window shattered. In a swift motion, Kai's Eternal Blade flew into the chamber. With deadly precision, the blade deflected each of the soldiers' attacks, floating between Kai and the soldiers.

The soldiers' and King Cedric's eyes widened in shock as they saw the floating blade.

Kai leaned back on his chair, a smirk beneath his mask. With a commanding tone, he ordered the Blade, "Don't kill them just yet."

As Kai ordered, the Blade launched furries of attacks on the soldiers. The soldiers were caught off guard by the Eternal Blade and struggled to maintain their ground against the Blade's power. Eventually, the soldiers fell to the ground, accepting their defeat.

With the soldiers defeated, the Blade landed gracefully at Kai's feet.

Kai picked up his Eternal Blade from the ground. Satisfaction was gleaming in his red eyes as he shifted his gaze to King Cedric. "So, what did you wanted to check." Kai mocked The King.

King Cedric responded, "I apologize for what has happened. I wanted to check if the rumors were true."

"It seems the rumors were true," King Cedric continued, his voice tinged with awe. "You do wield the Eternal Blade." 

As King spoke, Kai casually placed the Eternal Blade on the table before him. "You mean this?" Kai's tone filled with amusement.

King Cedric extended his arm to grab the Blade, the Eternal Blade gave the King a shock, startling King Cedric. He recoiled, withdrawing his hand quickly.

"The Blade..." King Cedric remarked, his voice filled with curiosity, "It seems to have grown an affection towards you."

Kai responded, "It can only be wielded by the person I trust."

King Cedric got furious after hearing Kai's words, "Do you not trust your king."

"No!" Kai stated.

Kai said, "So, why did you call me here?"

King Cedric responded."It's been many years since I've seen the Blade. Do you even know how much power you possess?" The King pointed towards the symbols that were engraved on the Blade. "You see those symbols."

"Do you even know what they mean?" King Cedric continued, "They're in fairy's language. Their meaning is The wielder of this Blade may possess..."

Kai interrupted the King Cedric, "The Power of Creation OR Destruction. Yes, I know what the symbols mean."

King Cedric stood up from his chair, his expression serious as he started to walk around Kai in circles. "Not only that, with this Blade, you have command over every single creature in all the realms. They all will obey the wielder of the Eternal Blade."

King Cedric stopped behind Kai and put his arms on Kai's chair. "Where did you get this?" He inquired.

"It's none of your business," Kai's response was firm.

King Cedric, "Do you know who was the previous wielder of the Eternal Blade? He was the bravest soldier in all the realm. He was the King of Astra." King Cedric took a deep breath and continued, "Now his legacy is in your hands."

King's Cedric gaze shifted from Kai to the Eternal Blade. He sighed heavily, "I can't believe my eyes. All of his strength being wasted by the likes of you."
