Glory Seeker 10 Weird People

They come to a stop in front of the palace. The huge palace was beautifully made and ordained with the pillars holding up the entrance being studded with pearls and clam sh.e.l.ls. There were huge statues of different sea monsters and animals. Ranging from a starfish to a shark to something akin to the Kraken in its figure.

"We have arrived," The King said with a jovial tone and toothy smile.

s.h.i.+n was entranced in the extravagance of the palace. He looked at the front there were over 50 windows and there were these amazing lifelike etchings in the stone. "You can get out you know?" The King said. In his gawking at the palace he failed to notice that he hadn't left the carriage. s.h.i.+n sheepishly exited the carriage and began to walk with the King while gawking at the pa.s.sing grandeur.

As they walked the King asked," what do you see." the King pointed to himself his beard reaching his chest. his face chiseled with a strong jawline, and long wavy hair. "The King?" s.h.i.+n responded wondering why he asked "Yes. a King but i was once a commoner as well as a soldier." The King began to explain" before i was King this Kingdom was land bound and had many wars torn places. because the original king cared not for the people. senseless war after war and I was sick of it. but there was nothing I could do and I was weak." they entered the palace at this point and s.h.i.+n could see the huge dome roof with all types of paintings on it and they stood in the middle.

"what did you do?" s.h.i.+n asked curiously. "I began to train. train harder than ever before i trained till i was b.l.o.o.d.y and bruised. I became stronger and when i attained enough strength I defeated the King and his corrupt men" The King said with a puffed chest of pride. s.h.i.+n was dazzled and amazed." but i didnt do it alone. you see the last grandmaster took a liking to me and trained me to seek justice. i wouldn't have any of this if not for him." "The King looked to the side reminiscing but quickly snapped back to reality.

"And you s.h.i.+n shall also receive training from a grandmaster, and access to the studies you need to progress" They began walking again down a hallway. "you see without being taught you really can't progress correctly. i will be your mentor but not your teacher just yet." they slowed down in front of a door and the grandmaster opened it to reveal a man with 3 other students sitting in a room "she will be your first teacher." there was a little girl with blue eyes, short hair and a bow in her hair."her name is Monsoon and sh-" a loud clap can be heard the little girl had snuck up behind the King and hit him in the head with a stool breaking it in the process "WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT INTERRUPTING LESSONS?" She screamed at the King with a roar. "and she has a bit of a temper" the King said spiting splinters out of his mouth.

s.h.i.+n was stunned. The little girl walked up to him and looked him over. "Who's this statue?" "The girl said "Monsoon he is your new student" The King responded with a jovial . "really? well im happy to have you. The names Monsoon" the girl put out her hand to shake s.h.i.+ns. after a moment s.h.i.+n put his hand to her's. "My names s.h.i.+n." s.h.i.+n said still taken aback from her actions. "nice to meetcha." monsoon said as she turned around to face the King and said" What did I say about interrupting lessons didn't i say not to interrupt your son's training? And where did this new student come from?"

"Calm down i didnt come here to ruin my son's training again i just wanted to introduce you two we will take our leave now. Come now s.h.i.+n." the King gestured to s.h.i.+n to follow. as they walked away Monsoon closed the door behind them. "She has a temper but only because she is pa.s.sionate about what she teaches, and very good too which is why I allow her to teach my kids. Please do forgive her temper" The King said apologetically. "Now then I take it you must be tired from your journey, and I take it you need time to adjust to your situation. so I'll show you to your room shortly but before that, I have something to say." The King stopped mid hallway and turned to face s.h.i.+n with a serious expression. "I put trust in you because you were shu's student. but," The Kings expression hardened and s.h.i.+n felt a pressing aura that felt like a being crushed by a boulder a.s.saulted his body. "If you have the gall to step out of line. Do something against my will. Or hurt one of my sons. Your end will be swift and painful".

"Understood?" the King said. The weight felling heavier by the second.

"Y-yes i understand," s.h.i.+n said scared out of his wits. This man emitted an aura that could have made even a sea monster flinch.

"Good," The King said "Sorry i just need you to understand your position. now let's get going" the aura left as quick as it came and s.h.i.+n felt the crus.h.i.+ng weight leave his body, and let out a sigh of relief 'this man can not be taken lightly' s.h.i.+n thought "here is your room. I hope you rest up well." the king gestured to the door and s.h.i.+n went in. it was a large room and a king bed and a few books shelves " Thank you King" s.h.i.+n bowed "Call me Aceton. Good night s.h.i.+n" The King left and s.h.i.+n collapsed onto the bed and began to sob.
