The World We Do Not Know - 47 A Mad Sword

The sword became rusty after a while in Gus’s hands. It has lost all of its divine appearance and now looks like a cheap sword that cannot even cut through a piece of paper.

Gus bought the sword to motivate Faust and also to test if the sword accepts Faust as it’s master.

And the moment Gus enters Faust’s room with the box containing the sword inside, the sword inside the box vibrates a little as to show it’s presence to its suitable owner.

“Faust remember you have been asking to see a katana? Well, I bought one today for you. Want to see how it looks? Even though it has become dull and a little rusty it’s still pretty much useful.” Gus says in a way to gain Faust’s curiosity.

“Uhmm… Sure.” Faust says in  voice.

Gus opens the box and draws the katana in scabbard. Faust’s eyes first goes onto the carvings on the scabbard, they seem to be symbols in some unknown language to Faust. There are carvings on the handle as well.

“Well wanna hold it and see?” Gus brings the sword closer to Faust to hand it to him.

Faust almost casually grabs the sword and as Faust’s hands come closer to the katana. The rust starts to fall off the swords inside the scabbard like a sediments sands, reinstating half of the beauty of the sword.

Faust almost grips his hand around the handle of the sword but suddenly looses his motivation and withdraws his hand back.

“It’s ok, I will see it later, it’s not that good-looking anyway.” Faust changes his mind after seeing that the sword is not doing good and looses his interest in holding it. He is still taken over by his feelings from the spirit world.

“Ehhhh.. Ok if you say so, I’ll put the sword here for you so you can touch it when you like it.” Gus says with a hint of disappointment. He thought he could see the sword’s response after a long time leaving it in the attic for so long, but Faust’s dispirited personality left him with acknowledgement of not getting what he want.

“Oh it looks like Bella is back with the sheep. Let me go tie them up and feed Bella for her hard work.” Gus leaves the room to look after his pets.

It was barely 10 minutes and Faust got super bored. He first examined his arms and his chest again.

*”It doesn’t hurt much, but the red color of tissues scare me”* Faust thought to himself.

And as he was getting bored, his eyes lays upon the sword that Gus has left.

Faust walks over and picks up the katana holding it at the middle of the scabbard thinking that it is heavier than his master and appreciates the style and carvings on the white scabbard with golden linings.

He then draws the sword out of the scabbard and his first thoughts were about how rusty the sword is. It almost looks like it’s eaten by acid because of the rust.

He starts swinging the sword gently, as the rust on the sword is falling over, bit by bit. Faust ignores this by thinking, it’s just rust that is falling off. And after playfully swinging the sword for more than 10 times, Faust decided to use his unholy sword technique with the katana.

Thinking of this, Faust takes a normal stance bending his knees as if riding a horse while holding the grip of the sword with both hands. He closes his eyes, takes a deep breath and gathers up all of his energy to his hands to deliver a strike in the air.

As Faust is involved in his technique with his eyes closed, all the rust on the sword has been completely fallen off and the eaten part of the blade starts growing out as a new blade.

*”Unholy sword  – The call of unholy blight.”* Faust shouts inside his heart and give the sword a powerful swing in the air.

*Whoosh!!!~~~* All around Faust’s room, his bed sheets, books, papers, chairs and clothes are swirling at great speed forming a realistic looking tornado.

The sword that Faust is holding is now looking like a brand new katana which has just been smithed, the ridges and edges look sharp and the blade itself is shining and reflecting like a mirror. Faust is mind blown by the sudden change of the sword. *”Dammit this can easily costs billions of pice’s!”*(the currency in Mindoro. However currency in the mainland differs from the currency in Mindoro.)

Gus rushes inside the house upon hearing the rumbling sounds from inside the house and is stunned upon seeing the sword in Faust’s hand.

“YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FAUST!!!” Gus shouts at the top of his lungs happily. One could see the twinkles in his eyes, his excitement level rising on seeing Faust’s achievement.

“I have seen the swords changing from a dull to a sharp one, but I never thought this sword would resurrect again.” Gus lost his hopes for the sword when it got rusty and crumbling into powder. But now he could not believe his eyes that the sword is back to its initial form.

“Uhhhh, grandpa, what are you talking about? He-help me, th- the sword is moving in my hands. It is not in my control!!.” Faust is dead scared with this new out of the world experience for him. He cannot control the sword as it continuously vibrates in his hands and making him slash every furniture in the room.

“Huhhhh, this has never happened before.” Gus is in great shock as Faust is as he never was chosen by the sword before so he didn’t know how to advice Faust. “But calm yourself first, Faust, and try to control it.” Gus is watching Faust worryingly as he is being thrown around and slashing even the walls.

The sword behaved like it just awoke after a long time of deep sleep, and wanted to go on a rampage.

The sword was in an excited state for 30 long minutes and it finally settled down after a while, leaving Faust and Gus exhausted. Their house is also in a devastated state.

“Faust you have been chosen by the sword, you have been gifted a power. You need to use it wisely, you will eventually find out about the world. You need to be sane, take better decisions, become an inspirational hero who everyone looks upto and serve in the military. You hear me? You won’t get to hold that sword even if you live nine lives like a cat. So you better use this golden opportunity and try to change the world.” Gus was exhausted with chasing after the sword and Faust. But he felt the need to get all the serious words off his chest to Faust, even if the tired Faust didn’t understand anything. He nods his head silently.

“But what is this sword? Isn’t this dangerous? It almost cut down our house.” Faust asks Gus in disbelief.

“This is the sword, that can make you change this world. This gives you the power. You need to choose the path you’re going to take, and that sword right there, can help you achieve it.” Gus keeps explaining to Faust about the sword over and over to Faust. Finally the dumbfounded Faust understood Gus’s meaning and the power of the sword.

“Ahhh, grandpa, my arms and chest is still painful, when will I get rid of this pain? Can’t you heal me?” Faust asks Gus with a painful expression on his face that doesn’t go away until he complains his pain to Gus. He is pumped to start training and make himself stronger with the sword.
