My Triling System

She couldn’t do anything after seeing her daughter get possessed by Raj shah. That was when she realized that the vampires she slew were all innocent people who were only controlled by Raj shah.

She laid her sword down and disappeared since she couldn’t save nor kill her daughter.

Many said that the blood fairies were killed by Raj shah. Some said they committed suicide but no one knew the real story.

“But before Kara left, she placed a spell on the sword that apart from her, and an individual, no other person will be able to wield the sword. Although my grandfather and his children, including me were able to unsheathe and wield the sword, as long as we keep on using the sword to fight, our energy will keep on decreasing, and anytime soon, we might die.”

“Some of my brothers who had chosen to be a fighter would often order me and the other forgers to forge the Kara sword and even though they knew their energy will decrease if they use it, they still didn’t stop using it to fight.”

“They said to me that they may be short of energy but every time they unsheathe the sword to fight, they feel energized again.”

“Although it is for a short time as they don’t last long till they meet with their demise.”

“I have only four brother left out of ten. Two of them are the men over there.” The man pointed towards the exit.

.....

“While the other two are just as stubborn as my five other brothers. They are working with the black market boss, stealing goods from the vampires to sell. If it was only stealing, it would have been better but they also kill any vampire they meet on the way.”

“The vampires are yet to be aware of the fact that an elf did that to their men. All their thought was that it was a vampire’s doing. But soon, they will know and the sparkle city will be in a greater danger.”

Kevin sighed after listening to the history of the Kara sword. It was a sad story. But the more he thought about it, the more he was curious as to why Raj shah was doing all this.

Why was he possessing the bodies of vampires and fairies? What happened to his body. Did he die or what? What exactly is hidden inside the Triling book that can be read only after he pours a lake’s water on the pages of the book.

What exactly is going on in this world. Why is everything just tangled up like a thread.

George noticed that Kevin was silent and had jerked him.

“Are you thinking about the sword. Don’t worry, we can just buy a different one. I wanted to buy the sword but after hearing about its story now, I had second thoughts.”

“But you can still try and unsheathe it to confirm that what I’m saying is the truth. Who knows? Perhaps you may be the individual that Kara talked about. You just have to try your luck.”

Kevin grabbed hold of the sword that was in his hands as he attempted to unsheathe it.

He breathed in and out as he slide his hands on separate directions and the sword was unsheathed.

“Wait, how?” George exclaimed surprisingly.

“You unsheathed the sword? The Kara sword??” The man was also surprised.

“You’re not from our family, that would have explained how you were able to unsheathe it. Are you feeling nauseous or something?” The man asked again.

Kevin couldn’t explain this feeling. He had never felt so relieved as this. He felt empowered and stronger as he grip the sword in his hands.

That was when Kevin noticed that the sword was light unlike other swords that tend to be heavy. He gave it a few swings in the air and could hear the cutting sound coming from this action.

“This feels great.” Kevin finally spoke.

“What? You’re not feeling nauseous or anything?” George asked.

“Not at all. I feel like this sword belongs to me.”

“Perhaps you’re the individual that Kara was talking about. What do I call you?” The man asked.

“Kevin.” He replied, while his gaze was on the sword of his hand.

The forger immediately went on his knees as he bow down to Kevin.

“I’ve been honored to meet with a special being as you. I swear my loyalty to you, master Kevin.” The man said.

“Err, it’s okay. You can stand up. I’m not that of a master.” Kevin said nervously. “What is your name mister.” He asked respectfully.

“It is Simon, master.”

“Okay Simon, I appreciate your greetings, but I don’t want anyone to know about me yet. Understand.”

“Yes master. I promise to keep my mouth shut.”

“Excellent. I have a question for you. Do you know the man who sells Triling rings to people.”

“Mr Yun! He’s the only merchant selling those kinds of stuffs in the whole market. He sells lost rings that were once used by gods, artifacts that are dangerous to people and many others. I can take you to him if you want. Did you want to buy the Triling ring from him?”

“Hmm, yeah. Something like that. Can you please take me to him?”

“Ah ah, no need pleading. I love to help special people like you. Follow me master.” Simon said as he walked toward the exit of the room and the two boys followed after him.

Kevin walked past the girls and saw that they were still selecting their dresses. He smiled as he watched them having a nice time doing the female thing. It seems like Azura was also having a nice time too.

They got in front of the Chinese man called Mr Yun. He was an old man, with lots of grey hairs on his head.

“Mr Yun, you have customers.” Simon announced.
