Endo

**Endo Kamisato** (神里 遠藤 ── *Kamisato Endō*), also known as *Endo of the Adans* or *Endo of Nevaris*, is a half-blood Kaszatti mage, mercenary, general and merchant affiliated to the Ashtrokan-Wandenreich Empire. Endo was raised somewhere in the wildlands of the Katsura region; he became an expert in the art of trading goods, and also he’s well versed in both magical and martial fields, as he studied and learned about enchantments, potion brewing and diverse fighting techniques that included various knowledges from swordsmanship to warfare tactics since a very young age. In late April of 2022, Endo Kamisato's journey ceased to be documented.

## Appearance

Endo apparently is a fit young Kaszatti male of tall height; although being half-blooded, he possesses a vast majority of human-like features, clear-toned skin, and an overall athletic body with a muscular build. He has straight dark hair that used to be long, therefore he would often tie his hair in a ponytail, after the Second Sand War Arc, his hair became somewhat short at neck height; he has small and slanted eyes whose irises seem to vary from a dark amber tone to a bright golden color. Despite his young age, he already has many scars scattered all around his body from stabbing and cutting injuries, mainly suffered during his battles or when he was traveling around the lands of Eldham.

His major notable characteristic is probably the scar he has on his back, as it seems to assemble the same pattern as the kanji “**力**” (*Chikara* ── Japanese for “*Power/Might/Will*”) that being the reason why his clothes have that same kanji drawn on them, this scar occupies the entirety of Endo’s back. It has always been there as it is a birthmark.

Besides, when using armor, Endo always appears to wear the same type of clothing; most of the time, he wears a dark yukata with black pants and tends to use traditional tight sandals as his footwear of preference. Still, when exploring for long periods, he may change his main piece of clothing for a thicker jinbei-style kimono.

During war times or in some rare formal occasions, Endo wears traditional light armour, mostly based on the Katsura Region cultures; his armour has numerous diamond reinforced metal plates forming protective guards along his chest, back, shoulders, waist, thighs, and arms; he also replaces his normal footwear with a leather hardened armoured version of his sandals. Yet, Endo refuses to use a helmet or protective gloves. Besides his main armour pieces, he doesn’t wear any other form of protective equipment, instead, he wears casual clothing behind his armour.

### First years

#### The birth of a fallen star

Endo Kamisato was born during the very first minutes of a New Year, under the noise of the fireworks exploding in the sky and the stars shining through the black blanket of that winter night, besides from that, little to nothing is to be known about the first moments of his life. Who were his parents or where exactly he was born remained a mystery; exactly one hour past the New Year celebration, when the fireworks were over, one brilliant unidentified object was seen over the skies of the Katsura Region, it was first described as an unusual shooting star of golden color, yet it wasn't just visible for only a few seconds as shooting stars usually are, but it kept shining for longer and started to become brighter until it suddenly disappeared when passing over a small village making its inhabitants confused and fascinated at the same time for this strange event; during the morning, a retired mercenary that lived in that village went to the nearby forest in order to collect some wood for the elders, but he found something else, something unexpected that had no logical explanation whatsoever, there was a wicker basket left between two massive wisteria trees, it was such a strange event as the snow melted for some reason, while the purple flowers of the threes that shouldn’t have bloomed at that season were alive as if there was no cold, the man entered the zone where the grass was soft and green, filled with life during the merciless cold of the winter, without any other explanation he felt warmth all around the zone, specially coming out of that basket, after thinking about it twice, he decided to open it, and it was such a surprise when he found a newborn with a note that had written the last name of this baby on it, *“Kamisato”*. Upon finding him, the mercenary won’t hesitate to take the newborn to the village, he brought a branch of the wisteria tree to prove that he was not making up a story about a newborn protected under the shadow of bloomed wisteria flowers during cold freezing temperatures, every single member of the village was intrigued about him, as they saw a strange birthmark on the back of the baby, even more when he opened his eyes and revealed a majestic golden color; although the suddenness of this event, the village decided to take care of him, and after a meeting among the villagers, they decided to name him *“Endo”* which literally meant *“Far wisteria*” as he was found under the cover of those flowers and his origins were unknown.

#### Childhood and education

During the first years of his childhood Endo was the center of attention of that humble village, its inhabitants saw him as “*divine blessing*”, although he was not officially adopted by anyone, every single villager took his turn to take care of him, but mainly there was two people who took care and educated him the most, the retired mercenary who found him and a woman who was into witchcraft but gained the trust of everyone because of her medicines and kind nature, he learnt the most of these two.

Endo helped the villagers with many tasks and learnt from many fields from a very young age, during that time he never got sick neither got exhausted, instead he seemed to be stronger and healthier than other kids even older than him. When under the protection of the mercenary, who turned out to be a famous war veteran with several battles in his career, Endo was introduced to the martial arts, mainly swordsmanship, Endo had both talent and will to improve, his efforts weren’t in vain as he improved insanely quickly as he was declared to be a prodigy, and also he had another talent that was discovered under the wing of the benevolent witch of the village, he had such a good connection and sensitivity to magical energy that he managed to enchant his first item **by accident** while just being a 4 years old kid, he studied and managed to both learn and memorize entire books with great detail and was also revealed to conceal a **tremendous magical potential** within his body, that fact in addition to his mysterious origin started the rumor about him not being a human.

#### The Dark Odyssey

Even after years of studying and researching an immeasurable quantity of books, Endo couldn’t find anything related to his origins, this clearly annoyed him, although the villagers were like family to him and he knew that it was really unlikely to find anything related to his parents in a small town, he really wanted to know more about the Kamisato family, find where he came from, know about his race and maybe discover how he ended up in the middle nowhere; this martyrdom of researching in the village’s old library lasted for years.

Endo spent his entire childhood in that village, it seemed like even though he did not have a family, he still was going to have a good life due to his charisma and productivity, sadly the village’s witch got sick when Endo was 7 years old, she taught him advanced magical concepts but finally passed away due to her illness one year after, he still lived in the village until he was 10 years old, a day before his tenth birthday he ceased his research in order to get some sleep and prepare himself for his the New Year festival that was being prepared by the villagers, little did he know that tragedy would strike down to end his pacific life.

The village was filled with happiness and hope for another good year of success and abundance, once again the fireworks filled and lighted up the sky, since there was another reason to celebrate that day: Endo’s birthday, after a great event he felt somnolent and decided to sleep while the adults remain awake to party and drink, a couple of hours later he woke up to the smell of burnt flesh and smoke, confused he got out of his cabinet to find out what was going on, his golden eyes opened up in a mixture of despair and fear while he was horrified: there were dead bodies everywhere, fire arrows embedded on the houses while their roofs were burning down and the deafening screams of children and women coming from the depths of the forest.

After recognizing the villagers bodies he got traumatized, the people that always were so kind and friendly to him were now dead, he decided to look out for any survivors, and finally found two siblings in the middle of the chaos: a young kid with his little sister, the brother took her hand and they started to run towards Endo, and so he did as well, but before he could even reach them a rain of arrows brutally killed both of the children in front of Endo, they were unlaid upon the mud of the ground, Endo fell on his knees and saw six bandits that also noticed him; Endo couldn’t do nothing, he was in a total shock and his body did not answer, he wasn’t even able to get on his feet, the bandits aimed at him, and almost all hope was lost, but a miracle occurred, the retired swordsman jumped out of the bushes and single handedly took out all bandits with his iron sabre, he looked over his shoulder noticing Endo, yet when he was about to approach him an arrow was shot into his calve, he yelled at Endo, telling him to run away. Endo woke up from his shock state and got up, he tried to somehow help the mercenary, yet he took two arrows more this time to his back, coughing blood it was obvious that there were many more bandits, dozens of them hiding in the trees and shooting the swordsman with their crossbows. Endo cried in pain as he saw one of the few people he knew slowly dying, but finally his will allowed him to do what he was told and he started to run away just before 20 arrows or so finally ended up killing the mercenary who collapsed in the ground, Endo was being persecuted by the bandits, the arrows were hitting the trees as he fled the scene, being that traumatic event the start of his dark odyssey.

Endo got lost in the wildlands, yet from the life in the village he already knew the basics of survival, days passed by, he survived with the food he could recollect or hunt down, he returned to his village to bury every single member one by one and finally paid respects, he was broken at first, even started to complain about just dying to the cold or to some wild bear, but finally his misery was interrupted when one lonely bandit tried to rob a malnourished Kamisato, he did not answer or even react at first, after all he lost every single person he knew, yet something in the bottom of his heart made him say no to the idea of accepting death; although he was desperate, he did not lose his hope, it was like his own will power just didn’t want to give up, he needed answers to his own origins and now he had another reason to live: to avenge the deaths of the ones who loved him; with this in mind, his eyes shone once more as he wielded a hidden dagger that he had picked up to stab his attacker right on his torso, they fell to the ground but the attacker was still struggling and trying to push Endo away, he got on top of the bandit and repeatedly stabbed him until he finally stopped moving, a couple seconds later Endo realized that he took a life with his hands for the very first time, yet, he did not feel any remorse, he understood that it was either the bandit’s life or his own, so he made a choice.

Two years passed by, Endo started to hunt some animals and sold them to other villages, as he had collected the loot of his village and recovered what was left in order to survive. The group of bandits that attacked his village was well-known not because of their skill but because of their numbers, messing with them was dangerous, but Endo was filled now with anger, just pure and absolute anger that created a wish of vengeance that was burning like a flame that couldn’t be extinguished. When the day finally came, he track down the bandits; he had everything prepared, Endo decided to first wait until night to then set their campsite on fire just like they did with his village, many people in that group got caught in the fire and died on the most painful way while they screamed in extreme pain, then he went on a killing spree, using the mercenary's sabre he rushed in and started killing every single bandit one by one in the middle of the chaos, Endo physical abilities were certainly superior which was actually rare because of his very young age, but this only proved what he was capable of, and also made clear that he was not a ordinary human being, instead he was repeatedly called a *monster* by his victims; after the attack was finally over, Endo have killed **24** bandits with his blade and other **45** died due to the fire he started, leaving *no survivors* whatsoever. As rain started pouring Endo took a second to look at the grotesque scene, he was covered in blood and surrounded by the smell of burnt human flesh, but he wasn’t even affected by what he did or had any remorse at all, Endo just looked at the sky as the raindrops extinguished the fire and cleaned his face from the crimson liquid that covered him, after a while his silhouette simply disappeared among the trees of the forest once again before anyone else could find the scene; although he had no mercy or compassion, Endo knew that the souls of the people that raised him could finally rest in peace, and that was fair enough for him.

### Finding a home in Eldham

#### Swords, Books & Warbands

After accomplishing his vengeance, Endo decided to live in the wild for 4 years, he often encountered bandits when he was travelling in the steppes or wild beasts when camping in the winter forests so danger became a quintessential part of Endo’s environment; yet, he overcame every single obstacle on his way thus developing his innate survival and fighting instincts. As Endo’s childhood ended when he was 10 years old, he was forced to quickly mature in order to stay alive; he understood that there was evil all around the world, people that were capable of committing such horrendous acts like the genocide of his village, and so the wish to never let that happen once again encouraged Endo to get stronger in order to survive the dangers of the wildlands and protect what was precious to him.

When he reached the sixteenth year of his life he finally “returned” to civilization, yet he was not wild, instead Endo actually had matured since he spent that time meditating and reflecting, and so he started to look for any jobs available to him, Endo decided to travel all around Eldham to find a way of make a living there, mainly he committed to the job of a mercenary since all he knew was fighting, he did not have an easy life, during that time he would most likely end up sleeping in the mountains or in some dirty barracks, fighting without a purpose was something that he would usually do, yet he still had in mind to investigate and try find answers to his questions, these hardships made Endo a man with a strong will, even if he was in misery he still kept going forward, and without even noticing Endo was already 20 years old; as a mercenary he was mainly contracted by merchants to protect their products, so he learnt the art of trading due to traveling alongside with them, besides trading Endo also studied many sciences during his travels, and finally after 4 years of wandering as a hired blade Endo decided to start planning on what to do with his life.

Endo realized that he could use his knowledge to start a life as a standalone merchant, and so he did, he arrived to the nation of Tortuga, and stayed there for a little bit but quickly decided to quit after he discovered that they were also raiders and pirates, thus making the nation not compatible with what he thought it was right.

He started to wander Eldham’s lands once more, travelling from one frontier to another, but finally encountered a place, and that was because of a single person: After walking for several kilometers in one of his journeys he found an enormous mansion in the middle of the territory of the A.W.E. and he also encountered the owner of that mansion, Vik Leyla-Earcala, he and Endo managed to have a conversation despite of their abrupt meeting, Vik revealed his position as a High Council in the A.W.E. nation and directly invited Endo to join their forces, he even offered him a house in any town of his choice for free, and after not-so long consideration Endo finally accepted the offer and joined the empire.

Endo decided to move to the remote province of Bostadia, a snowy region covered in ice, the main reason of his choice was that he didn’t feel that it was correct to ask for a house in one of the major cities since he was not paying for the propertie, after traveling a little further he finally arrived at the little town that was also the regional capital and shared the same name with the province, Bostadia; as promised Endo was given a small cabin and he met Lafonze Adan who was the major of the town, soon after they became very good friends as well and as Endo was in gratitude with the A.W.E., especially with Vik and Lafonze, he decided to use his talents to provide the police force with large amounts of potions as he was allowed to expand his home and make it his own workplace.

#### Blood and Glory

Endo was dragged into war after his second day of officially being a citizen of the empire, but this time it was in order to fight for the nation that accepted him and offered him a chance, so he accepted without any doubts as he was already used to combat. Endo played a minor role in the war against Skjoldrbrodir as one of the many soldiers under the command of the *Triple Entente coalition*, he was one of the soldiers that persecuted the fleeing forces after the main assault; during the battle he separated from his group and encountered **two enemy soldiers** armed with their enchanted diamond armor and despite having a low tier armor and being armed with only a barely enchanted sword Endo **managed to kill** the two enemy soldiers that engaged him at the same time thanks to his axe and the potions he had made before the battle, but that was the last of his participation in the battle.

Days later, Endo Kamisato decided to travel around the territory of the A.W.E., and after a visit to the city of Steigenhaven he met another important person in the nation, Oscar Draekar, who was the major general of the military forces, after that Endo became his swordsmanship student and practiced with the general Oscar for hours, not being able to defeat him even once in their sparrings, he also was advised about the strongest fighters in all of Eldham, and as he got inspired by the strength of his new master and the idea of one day being able to defend himself against the most skilled warriors, Kamisato decided to have a training regimen for some time in order to improve.

### First major events

#### The end of Hell and a new Horizon

A month later, Kamisato kept providing potions to the police force and started to enjoy travelling all around the cities next to Bostadia, he started to gain some trust in the nation as he met plenty of people like Bohhy Von Kirknell, Astapf, Emerson Draekar, etcetera.

Yet this period of post-war peace came to an end when an strange portal appeared and demons started a continental scale invasion against entire Eldham, as these evil creatures escaped from hell and started to cause chaos, Endo was one that stood up to protect his nation among the dozens of Eldhamites that decided to stop the invasion all around Eldham, he fought alongside his comrades and even the Grand Falcon himself, they were eight men yet together they protected their nation and wiped out the hordes of hundreds of monsters and powerful creatures, during the monsters’ assaults they decided to move to the city of Aktala in order to protect it, but suddenly a portal opened in the middle of the city as one of most dangerous creatures appeared, a **Wither**, alongside a final great horde of monsters, but even after spending four hours of nonstop fighting Endo and his comrades faced this last threat and managed to slay the **Wither** and obliterate the rest of the monsters, succeeding in protecting their nation as the invasion was finally over.

When the sun rose in the horizon Endo and Lafonze were back home in Bostadia, yet something bizarre was about to happen: Sir Bohhy decided to go to Bostadia as well, his visit was unexpected and without any warning he started to collect the ice of the surroundings carving some obscene figures within Bostadia’s iced rivers and lake, Kamisato could not tolerate this and went up to him since Lafonze also was concerned, but before he could say anything Sir Bohhy took his sword out of its sheath and tried to attack Kamisato so he could keep collecting the ice but Kamisato managed to dodge it, that’s how they started a friendly duel in front of Lafonze; but because of Endo’s confusion, due to how bizarre the situation was, he wasn’t that convinced to fight him at first, but Lafonze told him that if he managed to win he would give Kamisato the title of “*Guardian of Bostadia*”, so he got a hyped and now without any hesitation rushed towards Sir Bohhy who tried to make Kamisato fall into the cold ice water by destroying the floor with his pickaxe, but Kamisato’s superior agility allowed him to jump over the holes, dodge his attacks and counterattack with his sword slashing his opponent multiple times to the point that Sir Bohhy tried to run away because of how overwhelming his attacks were, only to be finished with an arrow from Kamisato’s bow giving him his first **victory** in a “official” duel.

After the duel was over, Endo Kamisato was contacted by his comrades once again in order to get some well deserved drinks after all the recent events. After hanging out with Lafonze, Sir Bohhy and Vik in a tavern, Endo told them his own history and how he ended up with them, he was still always helping the nation with all he could do, until that point he still considered himself as a simple “soldier, citizen and merchant of the A.W.E. that lives in a small village”; hours later, Lafonze told him how much of a good comrade he was, and also how good of a friend he was, since they helped each other in every conflict and situation that showed up, finally Lafonze revealed that his family, the Adan family , was actually the Royal Family of the empire, and he did the unthinkable and offered Endo to adopt him as his brother and become a royal, since Endo grow up without a family and was raised in the most hostile lands he did not know how to answer properly, but finally accepted as Lafonze told him that he was worth of becoming a member of his family because he was the person he trust the most, they sealed the contract with a firm handshake between himself and his new brother, and so, Kamisato adopted a second name, *Endo Adan*.

#### The first step in a long journey

The first days with his noble status weren’t that much different from before, Kamisato kept working in Bostadia to now produce his own supply of potions and spells in order to be ready for battle; yet, somehow the almost abandoned town started to gain more and more recruits. Every single time Kamisato woke up and got out of his cabin Lafonze already had a new member to include in the town, and so Bostadia started to have more houses and more overall activity, which also meant that now he had to look out and protect the new civilians from both the dangers of the wild and possibly banditry going around.

Kamisato started a more intense training regimen, climbing the nearby mountains and even swimming the entire ocean that separated the Bostad province and the Steigen province; as result he felt how his body was becoming stronger with every single day that passed, but he knew that even if he already participated in numerous battles he needed to fight even more in order to hone his combat techniques, so he decided to explore the rest of Eldham in order to accomplish his new goal: *become stronger*.

After the new citizens got better gear and established themselves, Endo Kamisato left Bostadia for a certain period of time, trusting in his brother to also protect the town. He travelled for kilometers and across entire continents, Endo discovered many incredible places such as Yggdrasil, the world’s tree; Shirokaneza, the city under the sakura tree; Vonkari, the jewel of the West; etcetera. Some people got alarmed when they saw the warrior with golden eyes in his bright armor, but in every single place Kamisato went he expected one thing, to find fine warriors to spar with, but his wish won’t come true until he finally made it to the arrid cradle of the Uraka empire, the city of Arrakis.

When he first entered the walls he was fascinated by the architecture and the abundance of the desert lands, he found weird to see that many people in the same place at the same time; in this city he’d met a new friend with cat ears and short temperament which name was Tomboy, she gave a tour to Kamisato inside *the palace of Arrakis*, he was stunned by how much gold there was in every single corner and the absurd amount of luxury that existed in that place, yet, it was to be expected since Kamisato was raised in the wildlands and had to survive in the most hostile environment, after that Tomboy offered some drinks, he did not refuse, after all he had to travel a long way to reach Arrakis, but things got out of control quickly, before they could even realize what was going on, they both got extremely drunk, Tomboy even claimed to see Kamisato floating in the air like if gravity did not exist for him; they started to roam the streets, barely being able to stand on their feet, and in misfortune they ended up at the outsides of a temple in Arrakis which had 3 high princesses sitting inside, Kamisato could not think straight but he was amazed by the race of one of the noblewomen since she was a fox-girl, and that race was one of Kamisato’s likes in women; they started to tease the princesses without any warnings, even when they got embarrassed they didn’t stop, thanks to the destiny and their luck there was no guards around to arrest them for harassment, yet, the luck they had a few seconds ago seemed to ran out when the three young women took out their crossbows and a enchanted bow, Endo was too drunk to realize at first but it wasn’t until Tomboy screamed at him that he opened his eyes wide open and dodged the crossbows’ arrows, but while being drunk he thought it was a good idea to give them an advice of how to properly shoot, in this moment of distraction he got hit by the bow that was a fully enchanted weapon, such a powerful attack could have kill someone but Kamisato’s body surprisingly managed to tank it, although he had to drink one of his healing potions right after, both Kamisato and Tomboy ran from the scene in the middle of laughs and arrows flying behind them, apparently they passed out right after they lost the princesses, since neither he or Tomboy remember what happened.

Endo woke up in a place he didn’t even know, but once back in Arrakis’ streets he met another person, but this time wearing full armor. Her name was Juniper Kyani, the guildmaster of *the infrastructure guild* in Arrakis, and former partnership wife of Tomboy, he was having an extreme hangover but then Tomboy showed up and took Kamisato aside only to tell him that Juniper was a really good fighter, a veteran warrior that killed many, his eyes shone with excitement and after asking nicely she accepted to spar with the outlander.

The duel took place in the coliseum that was under construction, it was massive, there was no crowd but he felt how his blood boiled with an unstoppable fighting spirit, although two pieces of his armor were degraded he did not back off and stand face to face with the guildmaster, he wanted to discover how strong he had become because he actually had no idea of how much he had improved. As soon as they took positions the duel began, they both starting shooting flame arrows at each other, but Kamisato’s agility allowed him to dodge all the incoming arrows while his golden eyes gave him the accuracy to get some impacts on the Arraki noble, she decided to cover up with her shield from possible incoming arrows, yet, no more arrows came after her, but a silhouette: Kamisato rushed in and closed the distance within a second, he broke her guard with his axe and hit her with a powerful strike swinging his sword, it was that strong that it knocked her several meters away, with this new distance and the current shock of the impact he shot many arrows on his opponent before rushing in once again, she managed to block and counterattack twice, he realized that she indeed had good technique with the sword, but Kamisato’s reflexes allowed him to parry the rest of the attacks, with her guard wide open he started to use both his speed and strength alongside his smooth footwork to make an offensive with several slashes and stabs in her flanks, finishing the Arraki master with his sword, he had won the very first round, after healing up they began the second round, it started very similar to the first one, but this time the Arraki guildmaster seemed to adapt and decided to keep her guard up at all times, she adopted a more defensive style in order to avoid Kamisato’s accuracy skills, he realized that she had no openings, he decided to test her by poking her shield with his sword only to be almost hit by one counterattack he barely managed to reduce, he jump backwards, his golden eyes locked on his opponent as a new tactic appeared in his subconscious, he concentrated his mana and enhanced his lower body with potions, gaining a tremendous amount of speed, so much that even before Juniper could realize he was gone and only dust was left, Kamisato was already on her back when one second ago he was in front of her, he decided to fight only with his sword for that first offensive, his powerful strikes also knocked her away every single time so with the shock of every hit and the brute force that pushed Juniper away he could stay away from her reach and once again rush to her blind spot, she tried to heal up but Kamisato kept knocking her body away, once she forgot about her defensive style and lowered her guard in order to take some healing potions Kamisato already had his bow drawn and an arrow ready and aimed at the guildmaster, he finished her off with a precise shot and also won the second round, and with that, he also obtained his second **victory** in an official duel.

#### Royalty and Diplomacy

After spending a week at the arid city, Endo decided to return to the A.W.E.’s territory since he had received a message from his brother Lafonze telling him to “*just return home*”, the journey back home had nothing interesting besides the growing curiosity of what Lafonze truly wanted to say with that letter, he even got worried, and the idea of something bad happening invaded his mind, he didn’t want that same scenario that happened to his village to repeat once again, that’s the reason he used his physical capabilities to return as fast as possible, literally running with all his might in order to arrive to the Empire that same day. Kamisato would reach the Bostadia province in the afternoon of that day, everything seemed normal, there were no major differences besides some recently built houses for the new population. When he finally reunited with Lafonze, he sighed with relief; but afterwards he was given a letter from the *Grand Falcon* himself, one of the two major authorities in the whole Empire, Lafonze explained the situation: While he was gone there was a project going on in the **Royal Family**, at first Kamisato didn’t understand what was going on, but while reading the letter he realized that being Lafonze Adan’s brother also meant becoming the Grand Falcon’s as well, it was such a shocking idea, but not as much as the next paragraph of that letter: he was being invited to reside in the new **Royal Mansion**.

Endo Kamisato was a person that lived in inhumane conditions and just recently moved into his workplace to live in at least decent conditions, as it could be expected, he was uncertain of taking that privilege at first, after all, he thought he hadn't done anything worthy of being rewarded. Yet, he finally traveled to the Royal Mansion to at least see it in person; he was in total astonishment, he definitely was not used to that much luxury, in fact, he just came back of visiting an abundant city that left him in shock and now he was told to live in a whole mansion with dozens of rooms; he almost decided to reject the offer but it seemed like the Grand Falcon had also accepted him as his brother so Kamisato didn’t want to be rude, although that was too much for him to handle; while being given a tour, he got lost in the mansion over and over again; he was asked to pick a room after the tour was done, and so he did, accepting to live in the Royal Mansion. Apparently his new noble status was not going to be as discreet as he believed it was going to be at first, but Kamisato thought of this as a form of payment that encouraged him to keep working even harder for the nation that accepted him, but of course, under his own conditions.

Endo needed to organize himself, he was now a royal and part of a powerful nation like the A.W.E. He had both personal and professional goals to keep in mind: become stronger as a warrior, and now find out how to serve his nation in the best way possible. He knew that he was going to travel a lot all around Eldham, so he sat down in his new room and started to consider how he could use his own travels in favor of the Empire, he came out with an idea: join the diplomacy by becoming an employee of the Ministry of Foreing Affairs, it would be a little bit complicated since Endo was too blunt and direct sometimes plus to the fact that he didn’t believe in respecting individuals based on mere hierarchies; yet, he had studied political sciences and his personality allowed him to defend himself and his nation’s ideals. He got the job immediately, once in the Ministry he was asked which tasks he was the best at, since Endo had negotiation skills and experience in combat he came in handy, becoming both an *ambassador* of the Empire and an *executioner* of its wills: this meant that he would be able to complete various missions and tasks as both a diplomat and an agent of the nation during his travels in the New World.

##### The Empire's New Era

Kamisato started working in the Ministry, doing some minor tasks that required him to travel; yet, he did not find anyone fitted for his goal of becoming stronger, instead he was feeling overloaded with his job, but a very important event occurred during this period of time, in fact it was the **end of an era** for the Empire itself.

The Ashtrukan Yoissy, who was the other major authority of the Ashtrokan-Wandenreich Empire alongside with the *Grand Falcon*, decided to retire from his position and gave the throne to his counselor, the *Gadukan*, who was also one of the Adan family members, thus one of Kamisato’s adoptive brothers: Goomson Adan.

Although this was unexpected, the Empire quickly accepted Goomson as the new *Ashtrukan*, due to the fact that he was respected by most of the members of the *High Council*; a private event was hosted at the Royal Home before his coronation, there Endo finally met his brother Goomson, although they haven’t seen each other in person until that day, they got along as well and partied together with Lafonze and Coolworld. After talking to him for a while, Endo decided to trust him, as Goomson was later revealed to also have allowed Endo to join the family; and so, in front of everyone *he swore loyalty* to the new Ashtrukan, after that, they drank together like brothers until they blacked out.

#### Money, power, and family

As time passed by, Kamisato started to work hard on his new job as a diplomat: opening negotiations with different countries, discussing the current political situation of the A.W.E. with his peers, and even being sent to scout places in order to determine new political movements. And as he was stepping into a vast diplomatic world, he started to acquire and produce special recipes in order to sell them to the public, thus making a significant amount of money, more than he could ever imagine; and all these events just happened within few days, and due to that, Kamisato was absolutely shocked as the tables turned to reveal his new position, he even was encouraged to pursue a seat in the *Senate*, but he declined. During this time he also started to realise how strong he actually had become until now, his daily training was now giving him the fruits he wanted, as he was recognized by Vik as one of the five strongest fighters of the Empire; knowing how much he have improved, Kamisato decided to set a goal, become strong enough to be able to defeat his master, Oscar Draekar, who was one of the strongest men in Eldham, and with that he'd also become the nation’s best fighter, yet, there was long journey to be travelled in order to reach that point.

During this period of getting use to have that much money and power, Kamisato came across a lot of new people, the most notorious one was a woman named Goetia from the rare demon race, Kamisato felt curious and got along with her in no time after he first met her in a market, and as he did with a lot of people, he invited her to the nation; days passed by and he got the word that she moved to Bostadia, other days passed by when Endo finally came back from Akkerburg to the Bostadia province only to find out something, the demon had fallen in love almost instantly with his brother, Lafonze; he clearly did not expect that, and in the very start he didn’t even know how to react to the sudden events; anyways, Endo felt happy about his brother and nephews, and immediately supported a wedding. After some planification, it was decided that their wedding must be hold in the Royal State, during this wedding he started to think about what his new family really meant to him, it was growing and now it seemed pretty established, he thought and realised that those persons were the people that accepted him and gave him a second chance in life, and when he saw them being happy, he was happy as well, he wanted to treasure and protect that, so he promised to himself to protect his brothers and friends. A friend of Endo, named Citrus, helped him with the wedding, and it was official in no time. His brother was now married, and now they started to gain even more influence, soon Kamisato made his first one hundred thousand dollars, and was now aiming to help his nation in any ways possible to him, but he saw himself surrounded by a lot of work, despite that, Kamisato had a very clear idea of what his major priority was, so after cleaning some work, he decided to go on another journey in Eldham, this time to the far west, so he could see what destiny have prepared for him, but he clearly had no idea.

#### The lost golden eyes

The journey lasted days, although Endo had the capabilities to quickly travel around Eldham and could make his way back home within the spare of a few hours, he wanted to explore the whole west side of the continent, passing by numerous regions and countries, camping in the outskirts while defeating any bandits that tried to rob him; he gained a lot of knowledge, and even if he didn’t speak the local languages, he already had mastered the *Traveller’s tongue* so communication with the few people that also spoke the universal language made his journey way more easy. Kamisato felt how his combat techniques were getting sharper with every battle he fought against bandits, he was feeling more confident as he was getting even more skilled than he was before.

Yet, the last day of his journey was the most interesting, and also, one of the **most important days of his life**; as the moon was rising, he was alone, walking through a dirt path in the middle of a dark oak forest, the sky was almost fully covered among the trees’ branches, but finally, he found a spot where he could admire the sky from; out of nowhere, something happened, he felt like if a needle was piercing through his eyes and his ears were ringing alongside a terrible headache, he closed his eyes in pain and covered his ears, after suffering for some seconds he tried to open his eyes once again, he didn’t know they were glowing intensely, Kamisato was experimenting something that has never happened before in his life, he felt how his own mana was out of control but finally took a deep breath in order to suppress it, and so, the pain ended and he finally could recover; it was strange but he didn’t have time to rest as he heard the unmistakable sound of a battle going on nearby. Curious of this and maybe wondering if something triggered that mysterious event, he decided to get closer to the skirmish, he observed from the bushes how an unit of uniformed soldiers were being ambushed by a group of bandits, at first he didn’t recognised the uniforms of the soldiers, all Kamisato knew was that they were being massacred, many of them were already dead when he arrived, and on top of that the outlaws drastically outnumbered them; although it was a very unfair fight that battle was not his, so he decided to ignore it at first, but when he was about to leave and disappear between the woods he noticed how the few injured soldiers were fleeing from the battle only leaving one person, a woman; he saw in how a deploring state she was, she got slashed and stabbed multiple times with spears, her blood was pouring in the ground, it was such a horrible scenario, he didn’t know how she managed to even stand up with the injuries she had; once more, the young woman got stabbed multiple times in her midriff by the bandits’ spears and their arrows pierced through her legs, but she stood up alone and entered a combat stance again, finally looking up allowing him to see her face; to the surprise of Kamisato, when he saw her in the eyes, that mysterious event from before was triggered once again, her eyes were golden as his, although their brightness was almost fully opaque, he could tell they were identical to his, the pain returned but the curiosity didn’t allow him to close his eyes this time, he saw something he had never seen, a *strange aura* coming out from every single living being in that place, including Kamisato himself, he looked down to his own arms and saw how he had an aura coming out of his own body, mainly conformed with the colors blue and black, and when he looked up he saw how all the bandits’ auras were of a reddish color, he also felt all the negative emotions they had, then he looked at that woman to find out that she also had one, but that aura was completely identical to his, in form and color; he didn’t know it at first, but that was the moment he had discovered that his eyes had another capacity besides enhancing his perception skills: **the ability to see others’ auras and souls.**

The pain eventually stopped as he looked at her face, images ran through his mind like if he could see through the deepest parts of her soul: the similarities in their auras, the memories of that woman, her emotions, and her will-power to keep fighting although her comrades had left her alone, all these things reminded Kamisato that he also was once alone and no one helped him in a long time. Kamisato then thought that if he was given another chance in life because of his will-power, she deserved one as well, he then decided not to let the flame of her soul extinguish in the shadows of death.

As the woman’s battlecry was getting weaker and her facial expressions revealed the fear of an unknown destiny, the clouds turned darker and covered the sky, a torment started as torrential rain started to pour on the scene, it was then when the bandits noticed another presence coming out of the woods; for some reason, this made them feel immediate intimidation; the rain expanded the blood pools on the ground and finally Kamisato appeared, in contrast to the eyes of the woman, Kamisato’s were glowing in a pure bright golden, a feeling of being under a threat and bloodlust filled the bandits’ hearts, without saying a single word he started to single handedly massacre the attackers with ease, since he became stronger during this last journey it was no major problem to his skills, what surprised him was how **she killed one more bandit** while he was distracted killing the majority of them. After the last of them was killed he sheathed his sword and walked towards the woman, for some seconds they looked at each other, Kamisato felt confused since he didn’t understand her language, and he felt even more intrigued when he saw her cry in desperation as she barely raised her sword to block a possible attack, he then understood that she was waiting for him to kill her as well, and hopefully bring her a quick death.

Yet, Kamisato crouched and took some healing potions from his bag, he tried to use the *Traveler’s Tongue* to communicate, but she didn’t seem to understand what he was trying to say, but soon enough she fell unconscious due to the blood loss, although her wounds being so severe, Endo’s healing potions were that effective that allowed him to stabilize her, it was a close call since she barely avoided death, he gave first aid to that mysterious woman as he started to question how and why did he awaken that skill in that precise moment, at the moment he believed it was just a mere coincidence. Once he made sure she wouldn’t die right away, he carried the unconscious warrior all the way to the *Royal Home* to give her a shelter, due to Kamisato’s physical capabilities the journey to his home was made in the spare of a few hours.

##### A new partner

Even after being healed and treated with potions and other medications her state was so bad that she wouldn’t wake up until the very next day. When she finally did, and after the initial confusion, she revealed her name, **Frieda**; she was a warrior from the far nation of Rodinnbrok, the communication was a difficult problem to deal with since she was not fluent in the *Traveler’s Tongue* or any of the other languages he could speak, to fix this issue Endo went right into the Royal Home’s library and studied her mother language for one week, during this period of time she could barely walk, so he took care of the injured soldier while learning her language; although of this, she was feeling suspicious of why Kamisato spared her life and even saved her; after Endo learnt the language, they could finally understand each other, so she asked for reasons right away, Endo didn’t know how to explain what he felt when he saw her or what happened, but he decided to be sincere in other way, he explained how he also was once at the bottom of the world barely surviving in the wild among bandits and other threats, and how suddenly he was given another chance to live, to grow stronger; and when he came across her in that situation, he couldn’t help it but to see in her an image of himself in his lowest. After explaining the situation and that she was not in danger he allowed Frieda to rest in the Royal Home for a couple of days before sending her back to her homeland, but soon enough news came all the way from Rodinnbrok to the A.W.E., when Frieda herself read the news before Endo, her palid expression told him that the news weren’t good, during the two weeks she spent recovering from her injuries in the Royal Home, he learnt that she was an extremist loyalist to her nation, but now she was feeling betrayed, it appeared that the nation declared her as deceased in action and was also changing its name; this was a direct hit to Frieda’s pride, not only her national comrades abandoned her in battle to die, but the high ranks decided to disrespect her loyalty; due to these events she felt destroyed and didn’t want to come back to her nation, after talking about it, she got hired by Endo as a personal assistant and maid, Frieda decided to throw her past in her old nation away and start all over again, after the time they spent together she stated that she owned her life to Endo, she decided to officially swear loyalty to him and therefore to the Empire, claiming that now *her life and herself belonged to him*.

As bizarre and sudden as it sounds it was now official, now Endo got someone to assist him during his missions, they got along rather quickly, both of them were pretty similar in every single aspect, to the point they will say the same things at the same time, they also looked somewhat similar despite the gender difference. Not only their souls were identical but their own existences were so similar and alike that even Endo’s brothers had some sort of weird feeling when interacting with both of them, since they talked and acted like one single person.

Weeks after Frieda swore loyalty to Endo, and after being encouraged to do so, she decided to send a letter to her old nation only to let her relatives know that she was indeed alive; an unknown group of people showed up in the nation’s territory a couple of days after they sent the letter, they established in Bostadia, later revealing themselves as Rodinnbrok’s members, including the adoptive brother of Frieda herself; they were looking for Frieda but soon enough most of them left after confirming that she won’t leave the A.W.E., and although there was some tension between Endo himself and some of the members that called her a traitor, nothing much happened and things settled down in silence.

#### Endo's bizarre adventures

##### That long night in Lutum

*(Author's note: The following events occurred before ERP was banned during the rule changes of 24/11/2021, documented only for lore purposes and very important reasons).*

With a new helper in his diplomatic tasks, Endo became a lot more efficient and met a lot of important political figures, sometimes, his journeys turned out very bizarre because of the cultural impact, but he took the opportunity to learn about the diverse cultures scattered around Eldham, signing treaties and establishing trading among the nations.

It was an exhausting job, Frieda seemed concerned about Endo’s insane amount of stress, but this period of working until late night in his office came to a break when he received a letter from his own master, **Oscar Draekar.** He was excited when he first opened it, he was expecting it to be an invitation to train together, yet his facial expression changed when the only content it had was a single sentence *“Go to Lutum, I will be waiting for you.”*

*“Oh, maybe he wants to duel with me over there, sounds fun…”* he first thought, but he couldn’t have been more mistaken than that, Endo said goodbye to Frieda and proceeded to set route to the allied country with his trusty horse that was given to him after helping a village, after traveling across the mountains and rivers he finally arrived at the city of Lutumshire, only to be received by his close friend Vik, he was shocked to see him there, he tried to say hi to him, but Vik only replied with directions as he and Endo approached a suspicious looking building.

Endo didn’t know what was going on, but he listened to the voices of three people in the basement as he was going downstairs with Vik, he could distinguish one, his master’s. When they arrived at the lowest, the viking and the wandering warrior opened the door only to reveal Oscar alongside his relative, **Pizza Draekar**; a diplomat, called **Rougant**; and the new king of Lutum, **Blue Arbiter**; all of them were sitting in what appeared to be some sort of pub. When Oscar saw Endo he smiled behind his helmet, before he could even question what was going on, Oscar revealed the real motive of his letter, they were having a party because of the recent independence of the country, Endo felt relieved as he didn’t had to do any work, or so he thought, but then he saw a strange pole on the stage in front of the table; Pizza Draekar who was already pretty drunk after a couple of drinks with Endo and company, offered himself to dance in the pole, which was pretty strange, but as they all were having a great time he didn't mind, Endo decided to stay, he even became friends with the new King after talking for several hours, when Pizza was done with his performance Vik jumped in to dance as well, after they were done Endo decided that it was enough partying for a day, he wanted to be back home before dawn, but his master had *other plans.*

*“Dance, Endo!”* said Oscar while swinging his beer, Endo first tried to deny the petition, but a drunken Vik blocked his path towards the exit gate, yet, Endo himself was also under some effects of drunkenness, and only because of that and the fact that he didn’t want to ruin the party, he started considering their petition for a second; Blue Arbiter himself, in a attempt to convince Endo, offered him some “valuable items” like some *gunpowder, suggar, berries and a diamond*; as he couldn’t think very well because of his condition, Endo accepted and danced in the pole, even doing a double performance with Pizza; this also resulted into a friendship being born between the wandering warrior and the bird man.

The night lasted long, some parts of Endo’s memories were blurry as he was just getting even more drunk, one of his last memories was him punching his master in the face after he, for some sort of *unknown reason*, asked him to do so. Endo could barely stand up at the end of the party; when the event was over, he was finally able to exit that place as Vik and Oscar blacked out. Endo then managed to recover his horse and ride all the way back home safely, he was later scolded by Frieda and **forbidden to ever drink alcohol again.**

##### Casually kidnaping a high princess

> "...War criminal? I prefer the term 'national hero', thank you."
>
> ── Endo Kamisato when accused of his crimes against five different countries.

Weeks after the celebration in Lutum, Endo decided to resume training by his own, often fighting off bandit attacks that occurred all around imperial lands; he knew he was alone during these fights, but still, he patrolled and fought against the people that supposed a threat to his nation.

He made himself gain some recognition from his colleagues, family and master; he decided to stay for an undetermined period of time at *Akkerburg* while he was growing stronger, and when he had to, he would often use dimensional traveling through another plane of existence known as “*The Nether*”, to quickly get to the nation’s cities in case of an emergency.

Yet, during one of these travels, destiny would have another weird and bizarre event for Endo to experience: As the warrior was walking through this dimension, using the highways built by kingdoms of the past and present, he saw a *strange figure* in the distance, curiosity invaded his mind in the moment he saw this individual just casually walking in the literal hell of Eldham, therefore he approached this humanoid shadow, amidst the red fog this being’s identity was revealed as a human called Rage O’ Fire; he and Kamisato stared at each other for a while, and finally greeted each other; Kamisato knew this person from the Empire, although he had never spoken to him before; their conversation was short, as in matter of fact, it only lasted for few seconds as they only asked how was their day. Apparently with an unknown reason or even directly without one, both Rage O’ Fire and Endo Kamisato shook their hands and decided to start a friendship in a span of less than 10 seconds. Rage then commented his frustration to Endo, he was feeling sad due to some recent events where the Arch Consul of Urak, **Alyssa Silvura**, insulted him.

“*She called me a bitch*” he said, and then asked Endo if he could help him in taking revenge for such a strong insult, an apparent absurd petition from someone he just met *literal seconds ago*, despite of that and against all prognostics, the warrior accepted without even questioning it, and also suggested to go get the help of some of their friends including his master.

Sure enough, both Rage and Endo asked their friends, and soon they had a group of six people ready to avenge Rage’s dignity, reuniting the strongest people among the military and some support soldiers, including his master, **Oscar Draekar**; Oscar’s brother, Aelius Draekar; Aelius’s son and Endo’s friend, **Pizza Draekar**; and a new recruit, known as Simple.

The group guided by Endo and Rage used the dimensional travel method to skip kilometers into the enemy territory, returning to their normal dimension inside of a close village to the objective; they arrived in the middle of the day; due to the abruptness of the events, they didn’t even had a plan to storm the city where Alyssa Silvura was in; all they knew was thanks to Rage, and it was the mere location and name of the city she lived at, *Sierres del Alumine*; the group decided that the best option was to enter by the main gate, Aelius tried to talk sense into the group about how dangerous that may be, since their enemies could already be expecting them, but sure enough his brother Oscar was relentless and confident enough, Endo being his student didn’t even doubt into following his master, and sure enough they were well received by Alyssa and her guards, she was wearing an enchanted plate armor directly made out of netherite alloy and seemed ready to fight until the end.

Despite of the enemy having such great gear and being ready, they didn’t back up; without even saying a word, Endo, Rage and Oscar were the first ones that jumped into action; they had numbers but their superiority wasn’t that much since there was 5 enemies, a violent fight was started and swords encountered each other, creating a deafening sound of metal clashing; the fight was apparently violent, but their enemies got surprised when they saw Endo, Rage and Oscar smiling like if they were actually enjoying it. It was clear that they were winning the fight, the power and skill gap was tremendous to the point that only one soldier on their side had to be healed while their enemies got knocked out of combat one by one, Kamisato took on one of Alyssa’s most capable guards, **Korulein**, who was trying to protect her from the wandering warrior, after slamming the guard’s head into the ground within the spare of mere seconds Kamisato charged against the full armor noble, his strength and speed showed no mercy despite of her political status, he was enjoying to be able to use his new capacities in combat, specially in front of the strongest of his nation, he had to make his master proud of his progress. Her condition was deploring after receiving Kamisato’s attacks while not being able to defend herself, in one last attempt she raised her sword trying to slash the wandering warrior, but he quickly dodged the attack and ended up in her back, only to hit her in the back of her head with his forearm, knocking her unconscious as well, just in time to save his comrade Simple from the last bodyguard, who later got quickly dropped by his master.

After winning the battle, they tied up the guards and the noblewoman, Rage and Endo were proud of the outcome of the battle, and although they really didn’t have a valid reason not only to raid a city, but to destroy its defense and massacre their guards, they decided to **make it even worse** by taking both Alyssa and her closest guard who got knocked out by Kamisato himself as hostages, basically kidnapping them. Taking chance of their unconsciousness, Kamisato asked his master how were they supposed to deal with the political consequences of doing what they just did, as they attacked another country's nobility member, only to be interrupted by Rage saying “*If anything, we’re not from the A.W.E, we’re from the **Commonwealth**…”*, when asked which country that was Rage simply answered *“I don’t know man, there’s a shit ton of Commonwealths out there, we should be okay…*”, Aelius and Pizza seemed to be disappointed with such answer, but they proceeded anyways, Endo carried Alyssa over his shoulder while Rage carried her bodyguard, this last one soon woke up in the middle of the way, and starting screaming directly at everyone’s ears, and soon enough the noblewoman woke up as well and just started doing the same, Endo got annoyed by this and told her that she may not even be that important because of how poorly skilled her guards were to make her stay quiet, but instead he made it worse as she clearly got pissed because of everyone laughing, making it a hard journey since he had to deal with her constant kicks.

After debating for a while, they decided that a good punishment for the insult was to work in the sand mines of Lutum, so they made their way into the country; the group was received by the king Blue Arbiter, and when he asked who were these people, Rage once again teased them by saying they were no one important, but then he got interrupted by the fox girl.

“*I am Alyssa Silvura; Arch Consul of Uraka, Yirsidani of Anglunia, High Princess of Aquarine, Princess of Regnala, Head of House Silvura, Head of the Uraki Bureaucratic Estate, Section Commander of the Uraki culture section, High Economic Minister of Amarillo and Arraki Royal Guild leader…*” she stated.

The king seemed absolutely concerned and worried about the political aftermath, but Oscar and Endo managed to convince him to take the two prisoners, when asked why would they ever kidnap a high princess who’s also an Arch Consul of the biggest nation both master and student replied with a simple “*...just for fun…and she called Rage a bitch*”.

For some reason Rage didn’t seem to understand why Blue was so shocked after hearing that answer, Alyssa and her guard were as well absolutely stunned after knowing the real reason of all of these events; although of this, Kamisato himself started talking to both of them, giving some advice and also revealing which errors they did in the fight; Kamisato might have common sense most of the time, but he also was addicted to the emotion of battle, and that was the one and only real reason of why he kidnaped them, in reality he didn't had anything against anyone, he also apologized because of how rude his comments were and started chatting with them.

After a while he and Pizza Draekar were in charge of keeping an eye on the prisoners, but Kamisato seemed to have forged a friendship with them as well, just as abrupt as with Rage O’ Fire; in fact, he saw how they starting escaping and just yelled to say bye, hoping they would encounter any time soon, but then Oscar also yelled at him, reminding him of his duty and sending him to go after them, but it was already too late as they were already gone. At the end, they all just realized how stupid but funny were the events they experienced that day, a day where Kamisato made 3 new friends out of thin air and in very bizarre conditions; but at least, they were all back home and Rage's dignity was avenged.

#### The Awakening of true power

##### Kamisato Blood

Weeks passed by, once again, normalcy returned to Endo’s life; he would pass his days doing diplomacy work in the Akkerburg’s office, writing and sending letters and documents regarding the geopolitical situation of the Empire, yet he wouldn’t neglect his training, but for some reason Endo started to feel ill; headaches were frequent as well as dizziness.

He felt like if his body was about to give up, like if it had reached the limit of how physically strong he could become, although of this, he refused to quit his training, even pushing further to the point he would vomit blood like if he didn't care about the sacrifice he was doing in order to become stronger; this worried those who were close enough to see his condition after each training session; Endo would often tear his own muscle fibers and pass out because of an excessive amount of exercise, yet this didn’t stop him, until Frieda herself asked him to rest for a while for his body to recover from the intense damage it had been put through.

He did what he was asked to do, and while resting he decided to once again go on a night walk; a few hundred meters away from *Akkerburg* he found a beautiful geographic feature the seemed to reassemble the form of a hand, so perfectly sculpted that it seem like some sort of statue of massive proportions known as “*The hand of Gaia*”. Endo climbed the sculpture, finding himself on top of its palm, he saw the flowers around him glow with an intense brightness, standing in front of a gorgeous view.

Endo, by mere curiosity, decided to use the skill he acquired when he first met Frieda, his eyes once again turned golden bright as it was revealed that the whole place was filled with an **intense mana flow** everywhere, the wandering warrior walked further into the structure, fascinated by the place, and sat down right in the middle, in front of a rare and beautiful white flower. He decided to meditate for a while and so he did, closing his eyes for an unknown period of time, where Endo didn’t feel anything whatsoever, not even the pain of his wounds or the coldness of the night. After what he thought was an hour, he opened his eyes and stood up, but suddenly, he witnessed a life changing event.

Exactly like what happened to him when he rescued Frieda, his eyes started to feel immense pain that could be unbearable to most people, but he endured the pain and opened his eyes only to see a strange light that was seemingly on top of the fingers of the sculpture, then he heard two voices, a male one and a female one, voices he wasn’t able to distinguish but that were familiar to him, even giving Endo a feeling of calm and nostalgia; they spoke a few words in such a gentle tone, but in a language that was unknown to Endo, confused and astonished he asked who they were, barely keeping his eyes open because of both the pain and the brightness, he looked directly into the light to see the silhouettes of these people standing on the fingers of the *Hand*, but he couldn’t tell any of their features because of the shadow effect created by the bright light behind them, he wanted answers and was getting desperate, when the female noticed the change of his voice, she spoke in a calm and recomforting tone, off her hand a small and bright orb of light came flying towards Endo, only to gently touch his forehead, revealing memories from a distant and mysterious past.

The memories flashed into his mind in the spare of a few dozen of seconds: he first saw the male and female together, now revealing their faces, they had similar features as him and wore clothes that looked like the ones that people from the Katsura region usually wear, they seemed like a happy and young couple as they were close to each other, they were in what seemed to be a garden although Endo didn't recognize the surroundings, the thing that managed to catch his attention the most were the male’s eyes, they were bright golden just like his own, and the woman had a beautiful face worthy of being royal blood; before being able to make his next thoughts, the scene changed into what seemed to be some sort of castle, he saw the woman, now pregnant while the father entered the room, wearing a war armor covered in blood, he could see through the windows how the sky was covered in red and darkness at the same time, as what appeared to be a rain made of fire and sulfur was falling merciless on top of the whole region; the next memory passed by, the woman had now a newborn baby in her arms covered in white blankets, the man was running with her and the newborn but she was weak and he was injured, they seem to be fleeing across a forest but stopped when the mother found a *small basket* laying on the base of one of the threes as she pointed at it and looked at the father’s face, he nodded like if they both were agreeing into something; in the next scene everything changed drastically, Endo didn’t know how much time had passed between the different memories, but in this one, the mother was barely standing behind the man, she was casting what seem to be a magic spell thus revealing her to be a magic user, the man was wielding a sword that gave off an intense mana flow, from what he could see Endo was able to tell that the sword was of great craftsmanship, its blade turned into blazing fire as the man, now bleeding and with more severe injuries was doing a final standoff against multiple floating figures; Endo couldn’t tell any major features of these creatures besides they having a great power and being humanoid, their auras were somewhat similar to the male’s, it was a strange feeling he had never experienced before, he finally found out that this was how divinity felt when witnessed first hand, this injured man and the weak woman were standing and facing what is considered to be divine, and although of this, they weren’t willing to surrender; they stuck together and faced the enemies they had in front of them, and before the man charged against the beings, the memories ended and Endo returned to reality.

He had many questions: *“who are these people?”*, *“why were they fighting against those beings?”*, *“why do they look like me?”*, *“why does this man have the same eyes as me?”*; yet none of these questions were to be directly answered.

*“Kamisato”* the man called him, Endo was confused of how he knew his last name, he even got his guard up, not knowing how he was suppose to react, the man spoke once again, now in the universal language of the *Traveler’s Tongue* allowing Endo to understand what he was saying, *“You have not reached your limit, in fact, you lack of one…Don’t you know that?*” his soothing voice sounded like a master teaching his student, so Endo decided to pay attention, but before being able to answer that question he continued; *“...The reason of your weakness is because you’re not using your real strength, your real power, the one that resides in your **Kamisato blood**; instead of using what you’ve been gifted, you’re suppressing it, therefore your own body is reacting against you…”,* although the suddenness of these events, it made sense, Endo knew he had some skills others didn’t, but he never tried to exploit them and barely tried to master his own mana.

The woman next followed: *“Oh dear, I know you have many questions, but listen carefully; once you accept your own power and master it, you will be able to grow stronger limitlessly with your own willpower…”*; Endo understood what he had to do, but before thinking any further he yelled at them: *“Who are you?! Please! At least tell me that!”*; but his attempts were in vain, *“I know it’s hard, but please, do not surrender…”* said the woman, *“I wish we had more time together…but you need to focus now…”* said the man.

Endo tried to talk back once again but the light started to glow more intensely than before, blinding him for a few seconds as both, the man and woman, spoke together for the last time: *“...And wake up, **Kamisato**.”*

Endo opened his eyes, which were shining, although he was not sad but confused, tears ran down his cheeks, stumped for what just happened, he was still sitting in his meditating stance, like if he never stood up or had that conversation, it was almost midday; he had no idea of how much time it had really passed. But what he knew was the his wounds were completely healed, and his body for some reason was feeling warm inside, specially around his heart, he focused once again and discovered that he now had a better control of his own mana, he remained silent and looked where the silhouettes were, of course they have already disappeared, he sighed and just said something that he felt the urge to say at the moment: *“Thank you.”*

##### A duel with a Draekar

Right after the last events, Endo made his way back to *Akkerburg*, when he was received by Frieda and some of his brothers it was revealed that he was not missing for one single night, but for **an entire week**; yet he was reactionless since he already have experienced a lot of incredible events lately, he didn’t feel tired or anything, in fact, he felt filled with energy; he decided not to think deeply in who those people were, but rather focus on what they told him, but before he could do anything, the Royal Home received an **unexpected visitor.**

Endo was notified by his maid about the appearance of a strange man right outside of the house, demanding to meet Endo Kamisato; as he exited the Royal House he was greeted by a menacing presence: a man wearing dark noble clothes and with sharp eyes that looked straight into his golden eyes, Endo recognized him instantly, he was Aelius Draekar; a nobleman from the **Draekar family**, he was also one of the high ranks of the military, a member of the high council, and one of the strongest people in the Empire; Kamisato felt the necessity to keep his guard up, he didn’t know Aelius very well, he only saw him in some few occasions and never really spoken to him before. The Kamisato stared at the Draekar and asked him what the purpose of the visit was, he thought it may be important since it was already afternoon, saying that his brothers, the emperors, weren’t home and that he should return other day if he wanted to visit them; but he was interrupted by Aelius, who revealed the real purpose of the visit was that his brother, **Oscar Draekar**, who was Endo’s master, told him about Kamisato’s incredible progress; he came all the way from the Steigen province to challenge Kamisato in a duel.

Endo didn’t expect that at all, but before answering he smiled, after all there was nothing in the world that he loved the most but combat; without even questioning it he accepted, after all he would be fighting his master’s younger brother, and his senpai since he was also Oscar’s student. Endo then returned home and grabbed his sword, both warriors walked towards the wheat fields surrounding the *Royal House*, Aelius removed his cloak as Endo was putting his hand on the handle of his sword, the excitement of both of them was obvious as a great fight was about to break over.

Soon enough, Endo felt a great pressure as Aelius was getting ready, it was to be expected from one of the strongest of the Empire, but he couldn’t afford to lose, if so, he would never grow stronger or become able to master the power he was gifted; they got into their battle stances, wind whistled across the high grass that was at hip height, the descending sun lit up the stage of what was about to be a great duel, for a whole minute they didn’t move an inch, but stared at each other, and finally, they both did the first move, Aelius doing a vertical slash and Endo answering with a horizontal attack of his katana, clashed their swords with such a tremendous strength that it created a great shockwave, Endo confirmed Aelius’ physical capacities, he was not only incredibly strong, but also fast and his technique was faultless; they started to exchange blows at such an incredibly speed that their attacks were leaving afterimages of themselves, sparks came out of their blades as they blocked each other’s attacks with great precision and timing. After the first engagement Endo tried to create an opportunity, parrying one of Aelius’ descending attacks and then countering it with a rotating elbow directed to the side of his head, the momentum added to Endo’s great strength made the attack incredibly dangerous but he saw surprised when the Draekar was able to react and perfect block his blow with his arm, they both kicked each other in order to create distance and once again retook combat stances. A drop of sweat descended over Endo’s forehead as he locked his eyes onto his target, at that moment, he knew they were rather similar, but he could tell that Aelius was superior than him in terms of strength and technique, he wasn't even sweating at that moment, and he also easily blocked his full strength attack; but before being able to focus again the Draekar attacked again, this time penetrating into his defense and delivering a devastating kick with great force, enough to send Endo and his 80 kilograms of weight flying across the field, he stuck his sword into the ground to stop the taken knockback, but the Draekar wouldn’t give him time to breathe, he charged against Endo, and he was barely to stop the incoming attacks with his sword, in fact, some hits brushed Endo’s body, he was barely keeping Aelius’ blade out of his vital points, Endo knew in that moment that was going to lose if he was relying on his raw strength, although he did get stronger, it was not enough to fight back against him, if the fight kept going at that rate, Endo would die.

Yet, he knew he couldn’t surrender, if he died now, he would never answer the questions he had about his origins, and that was what pushed him forwards; out of pure battle spirit he ignited *something* inside of himself, that strange warm sensation in his chest he felt before at Gaia’s hand appeared once again, suddenly his speed increased allowing him to dodge one of the attacks and counter with a great uppercut into Aelius’ chin, he still tried to block with his hand, but Endo’s strength also increased by a lot, the mere impact sent the Draekar several meters back, although he reduced the power with his hand, the attack was strong enough to make him spit blood, Aelius seemed surprised because of that attack, up to that point he was certain about his superiority over the wandering warrior, but as he recovered and looked at Endo, Aelius could feel a great heat aura coming out of the wandering warrior as he opened his eyes revealing that they were colored in a bright golden tone, Endo remembered what he was told during his strange encounter hours ago, he decided to use that one gift he had in order to overcome his obstacles. Endo felt like if his blood was boiling, it was not painful, instead he felt energized; all he knew prior to that fight it was that his own mana was different from the rest, but he didn’t know how different it was until he used a very miniscule percentage of its true potential, his body felt stronger, his mind became clearer and his senses were sharper; the wind was repealed by the mana flow coming out of Endo, as Aelius was spectating this event, he got filled with excitement because of the new power of his rival, the awakening of **Kamisato blood.**

Aelius didn’t wait any longer and attacked once again trying to quickly stab the wandering warrior in his chest, yet Kamisato didn’t move immediately, it was strange to him, as if everything was slower. Kamisato quickly thwarted the attack with a perfect counter, only swinging his blade with barely one arm, after his attack was stopped Aelius kept the offensive, but Kamisato didn’t fall behind and started fighting back, they were now exactly equal in terms of physical capacities, adrenaline poured into their veins as the battle extended, some attacks penetrated each other defenses, they were bleeding constantly, and yet, the intensity didn’t decreased a single bit; as the sun was getting lower at the horizon, Aelius soon realized something, although they were now equal he was getting exhausted while Kamisato didn’t seemed to be affected, so the Draekar decided to bet everything in a single attack that, one that was going to leave him exposed to the Kamisato if he failed, he charged against Kamisato one last time, attempting to cut his head off with one last slash at his neck, charging with his enhanced strength, Kamisato’s blade was away to be able to block it, it was a game over for Endo, but he still found a way to survive as he refused to die, Aelius was astonished as he saw how his sword was trapped in Kamisato’s forearm, he had used his own limb to block Aelius last attack, now face to face, the bright eyes were locked onto the place where Aelius’ heart was, he attempted to stab him as Aelius was unable to use his sword to block it, but he wasn’t going to give up either, it was a battle of wills and no one was willing to give up; the Draekar used his own hand and managed to catch the blade although getting his own hand pierced by it, barely stopping Kamisato’s katana from stabbing his heart, they were now using all their strength looking at each other’s eyes as they let out their battle cries trying to make their way, but it was no use, the sun finally was hiding behind the horizon, and soon enough, Endo felt his body heavy again, that power was new to him and it was excruciating tiring to use, Aelius was also exhausted because of enduring all of the attacks; blood came out of their mouths, but then, out of apparently nowhere, they both smiled, and stopped battling.

Endo removed his sword and so did Aelius, all they said to each other was “It was a nice fight…”, they both knew no one had won, the sun finally disappeared with the last light of the day, their battle ended up in a tie. The Draekar did a sign of respect with his sword as Kamisato bowed to his rival, they got closer and bumped fists, and then fell on the ground right after, covered in their blood, tired and without any strength left, but they were rescued by the servants of the Royal House who were spectating the whole battle from the windows.

They were healed using advanced magical potions, both of them talked to each other about their techniques and became friends as they considered each other an equal, in the morning Aelius left the Royal Home smiling and satisfied with his duel, and so did Kamisato; he knew he would have lost if it wasn’t for that vision from before, but now, with that power residing in his blood, Endo knew that ***if he mastered his power**,* he could reach the sky one day.

##### Imperial Executioner

Days after his encounter with the Draekar, Endo kept searching for methods to master this new source of power he discovered within himself, although this seemed to concern everyone around him, mainly his assistant Frieda, at that time they already lived together in Akkerburg along with the other royals for one month; as time passed by, they were getting closer and more confident with each other. Endo took some of his time to teach her the local languages of the nation, thanks to that effort she became fluent in those and also mastered the Traveler’s Tongue at the same time.

During this period of time, the warrior would receive another letter but this time from his brother Lafonze, who was at Bostadia while Endo was recovering at the Royal Home, intrigued by this unexpected detail, he opened the letter right away, which had a folded note with the words *“Top Secret”* on top of it, he decided to read it in private, getting inside his room without anyone but Frieda by his side, who had recently gained enough of his trust. The letter was an invitation from his brother, which also had a paragraph written by his other adoptive brother, Goomson Adan; it was a double invitation, first Lafonze was inviting Endo to a secret organization, the secret police of the Ashtrokan-Wandenreich Empire, which primary mission was to do secret investigations to acknowledge and neutralize the major threats to the nation, while Goomson was recruiting him to become an **Imperial Executioner**, an elite member of the army who was responsible of protecting the Emperors and the nation while also carrying out their orders.

Endo’s eyes shone with excitement, he instantly asked Frieda for paper and a quill; accepting both offers, after sending his respond he would received another letter, this time asking him to be present at the glorious city of Silbern; Endo traveled with his companion, arriving to the city during the night at the agreed time; as Endo entered the great capitol of Silbern alone, he walked across the hallways, and found himself in the main hall, which was almost totally dark, just dimly lit by some few candles, he walked into the room and saw how some few more candles were light up on the other side of a great table, revealing that both Goomson Adan and Lafonze Adan were in the same room; Endo was received with congratulations and compliments, explaining that he did enough for the nation to gain the honor of being introduced into the secret police and become and *Imperial Executioner*, he was informed of what kind of jobs would he do, essentially meaning that he’ll do the dirty job of the nation, a role surrounded by constant danger and death, but he accepted anyways, he seemed himself fit for the task, and that would also be a way to repay the nation he loved.

##### The Coronation and Destiny

In order to be able to carry out his duty, Kamisato started another intense training regime, this time with his partner and back then rival, Aelius Draekar. His will was set ablaze when he noticed how strong he had become, everyday he would meditate hours, trying to start to control the inner power he possessed while also training his body as usual; at the end of the week, Kamisato noticed that his body became unusually way stronger, way more than the expected results of just one week of training, such an improvement was something strange because he was still unable to control his power at will, he was just barely able to sense it; but besides that, his base physical capacities developed greatly, at the end, he had another sparring duel with Aelius; Kamisato was shocked as he saw himself being able to beat the Draekar without major problems now, not even understanding how he broke the limit of his own might that quickly, but besides questioning how it happened, he was very happy with his results as he was now one step closer to become the strongest.

After the training, Kamisato started working as the Imperial Executioner, often traveling around the country to evict squatters, fight off bandit attacks, keep the public order in the nation and its protectorates, and do the Emperors’ will outside of the Empire. His first jobs were a great success, but his duty would be interrupted when he was notified that it was about time for the Ashtrokan-Wandenreich Empire to see a new era. Even if there already was a private celebration for the succession of a new Emperor, there was still a need for an official event, *the great coronation.*

When the day came, Kamisato reunited with Lafonze at Bostadia, and together made their way into the prosperous city of Willowreach. The blue sky, the bright sunlight of midday, the great amount of people that were rushing into the stadium excited to see the new emperor in person; everything was pointing towards a great event. When Kamisato was entering the city he was expecting a great coronation without any other relevant events, but when he stepped into the stadium he felt an enormous amount of pressure, his sense spiked as he got his guard up and started sweating, his eyes were trying to look after who was the owner of such an intimidating aura; Lafonze was confused, so were the rest of the people, it appeared that only Kamisato was able to feel that crushing pressure, but then Oscar came in, greeted both of the brothers, and introduced two new people to Kamisato; it turned out that they were the owners of such great aura.

Two men, one very young and short, the other somewhat older than Kamisato’s age and way taller than him; although Kamisato didn’t believe in fate, without a doubt, he was destined to meet these two new people: The Envyorer and Jeremy Kenjiro.

The Envyorer was a new recruit of the army, brought by his adoptive father into the nation, he was very young but was proven to be a great prodigy at fighting, although they were just standing there, Kamisato felt like if all his techniques won’t work on him; Jeremy Kenjiro, on the other hand, was just a mayor of a new town, but his aura just warned everyone that was able to see it of the great power he had, greater than the power of anyone he has seem so far, if Kamisato attacked him now, there would be nothing but **death** awaiting for him.

Kamisato was excited, he never expected the existence of people like them in Eldham, he greeted them and started talking to the pair, quickly starting a friendship based on the immediate admiration he had for both of them.

The major event was just starting, as Goomson went on stage, Kamisato quickly helped protect him, standing beside his master and Jeremy as well. The event concluded with a great speech that motivated everyone, and soon, the crown was now on Goomson’s head; the celebrations started to receive the new great emperor of the A.W.E.

###### The first martial arts tournament

Right after the main event was done, and to celebrate the new emperor, the great *Unity Day event started*. There were great events like a race of boats from Willowreach to Silbern, a drunken king of the hill event, and even a drunkard contest; but the major event was yet to be started; *the first martial arts tournament of the Empire.*

Everyone seemed interested, and so many people signed up for this event, including all of Kamisato’s friends, the Envyorer and Jeremy Kenjiro. Endo was interested to join because of these last two participants. The event consisted in a hand-to-hand fight without any sort of weapon involved.

First rounds went like normal for Kamisato, he managed to beat his opponent without breaking a sweat, simply doing a sweeping kick to throw his rival out of the arena, earning him his first victory and pass to the next round, surprisingly, his brother Lafonze also managed to win; on the second round, Kamisato once again fought another citizen, this time knocking him unconscious after a very careful hit on the back of his head, yet the surprise was big for everyone, because a great fight would start in the second round, it was Kamisato’s master, Oscar Draekar, fighting against Jeremy Kenjiro; Kamisato trusted in Oscar’s skill but was surprised after seeing Jeremy’s combat skills for the first time, as he defeated Oscar without any major problems, he was shocked; he also saw how the Envyorer managed to win against a very decent fighter without major problems as his rival wasn’t even able to land one single hit, the pressure was on. As a third fight, Endo would be fighting against one of the top members of the military, finally being able to use his strength to land solid hits on his opponent, finally kicking him out of the arena with a powerful roundhouse kick to the head, yet, the most interesting fight was Jeremy Kenjiro against the Envyorer, the fight was evenly matched at the beginning, so Kamisato took the chance to study their moves; at the end, Jeremy got serious and finally knocked out the Envyorer with a knee to his chin, yet, he didn’t end up without bruises. It was semifinals now, the event was being fun for Kamisato, it was a surprise that even Lafonze managed to avoid getting eliminated, he even got the finals after defeating another citizen, Kamisato thought of how lucky he was because of the rivals he had to fight, but he wasn’t allowed to think about anything else, as he was about to fight Jeremy Kenjiro, one on one. This person had single-handedly taken out his master and the Envyorer, Kamisato felt the pressure as he stood in front of him, but he didn’t back off of such a challenge. The fight started as everyone cheered for both, expecting a great fight; Kamisato saw how Jeremy got right on his face within seconds, being barely able to block an incoming attack, his strength was demolishing, but when Kamisato attacked back he realized how strong he had become, as it seemed like he had enough power to cause damage to the Kenjiro; yet, the difference in skill remained. Kamisato was struggling while Kenjiro was putting him in a corner, but as he saw his master at the corner of his eye, he knew he had to prove to them that he was, one day, going to become even way stronger; Kamisato was already beaten up after a great exchange of blows, he did damage Jeremy, but the difference was greater than he could’ve expected, yet out of nowhere he reunited all of his will, and without even having the intention of doing so, he once again used that mysterious inner power of his blood, surprising the Kenjiro with a devastating uppercut that was way stronger than every single attack he had done before, even by multiple times. Jeremy didn’t see it coming, the hit was perfect, right on his chin, and against all odds, Kamisato knocked out Kenjiro.

Everyone was so surprised and proud, claps and shouts of victory were sent to Endo as they were wondering what just happened to him, and if he was always that strong, while being healed for the next round, Kenjiro and the Envyorer got in front of Endo, complimenting him because of that performance; it seemed that the Kamisato had caused the interest of these two, but he was also looking forward to train with them.

The finals were about to happen, Kamisato was very excited as he would be fighting his brother Lafonze, but it seemed like he wasn’t as excited and Kamisato was, so instead he proposed something, a double championship, Kamisato accepted it since he was like his brother, and at the end, both were crowned the champions of the first martial arts tournament of the Empire.

##### Friends and enemies

There’s always calm before a storm, and that was the case with Kamisato, although he knew pretty well that would happen. When he accepted to become the Empire’s executioner, he knew that he would have tough fights and challenges on his way to become the best warrior.

After the new coronation, when the new emperor took his rightful seat, Kamisato was asked to do something unbelievable by his own; to weaken the enemies of the Empire, to destroy them, to neutralize any threats to the Empire, to become the sword of the nation itself; and without any doubts in his mind, he accepted.

"Kill objectives, ambush military units, raid towns and burn down cities" sounded like something a **bandit** would do, but Kamisato always said that he was no good man, nor he was innocent, ever since he was a child, his hands were covered in blood; it was a cruel world where the strongest killed the weak, where you could only survive if your strength was as much as your will to live; that’s the story of when his legacy started.

He was first sent to small nations to kill certain objectives, and loot their supplies; at the time, he was the one and only Empire’s executioner; that meant he’d have to do this alone; so he did without backing up a single time, without being killed, captured or even injured. The smaller towns and cities proved not to be a challenge against a surprise attack from the wandering warrior; yet, he still had his principles and refused to kill anyone else that was not an objective and didn’t pose a threat to the mission, that’s where a tale about a bandit that would mercilessly raid towns but at the same time spare the lives of innocents begun.

The most affected people by Kamisato’s actions were squatter settlements and the extinct nations of Iron Freeholds, Plagatea and Soolia; lands that saw how reckless he could become. Kamisato himself didn’t seem affected for what he did, after every single mission he would go back to his home, meet his maid and friends while acting as if nothing had happened.

Yet, he soon discovered that bandits attract each other; Kamisato didn’t like being called a bandit since he didn’t really fight for the loot and didn’t kill anyone that wasn’t necessary, but still, he got in contact with some interesting people. In his travels he was introduced by Dorian, who also had become a bandit at the time, to an uraki blacksmith who was also a raider, Sebby; and to a person whose gender was uncertain called May. Even if Kamisato didn’t like to interact with those people at first because they were “real” bandits, with some time he got along with them, often practiced with them and even helped them to do some missions together. Not long after he met May and Sebby, Kamisato encountered another bandit who had directed a raid on the A.W.E. before, Wardaddy. He wanted to kill the bandit right on the spot, but after informing his brother Lafonze, he was told not to since his brother wanted to get some more information on him, but as time passed by, Kamisato and Wardaddy got along as well.

In the end, Wardaddy was even able to fix his problems in the Empire and made a non-aggression pact, so Kamisato ended up meeting a lot of interesting people that became new friends to him, but he also ended up with a lot of corpses behind him and a story starting to be forged because of his actions, since Eldham was appearing to acknowledge what he was doing; yet, if Kamisato was starting to be somewhat known, something in a close future made his name spread around Eldham, as he did something that would become **impossible** for the people to forget.

##### The tale of Kamisato

A day that would mark the start of Kamisato’s legend arrived, an unprompted event without precedents for a single bandit; it was not a mission, *it was the product of his own ambition*, the proof of how far he was willing to go for finding a challenge that would make him stronger, what in a future would become the reason of why some people call him a monster.

The United Socialists States of Eldham, one of the biggests nations around the region; although highly populated, it was poor and untrained, a nation which ideology Kamisato hated the most, he saw them as sub-humans that followed a fake ideal of what “power” was; therefore it was an insult to Kamisato's ideology of Power. He couldn’t stand it, nor could he tolerate looking away as they were trying to spread it onto their allies.

He didn’t tell anyone, not even the Adans, not even Frieda; no one but himself knew what he was doing at the time, looking back then, it seemed like a suicidal attack. No matter how strong one warrior was, attacking an entire nation by your own was madness, yet, he did it anyway.

He used the hidden highways of the Nether to move faster, crawling among the fire and ashes of Hell itself in order to travel the huge distance without being seen by the locals. After a while he had finally made all the way to the U.S.S.E.'s territory, then the assault started.

Kamisato started by the border towns, not as populated as major towns, a wise start to see how capable he was of finishing what he was willing to start. Without any warnings, a silhouette entered the town, two locals were distracted in what seemed to be a market, then they finally noticed the figure of who appeared to be a traveler entering the town; but then they realized, that man was no traveler, but the Death wandering right into their homes. Kamisato wielded his blade and slayed both citizens without hesitation, he looked any others in the town, mercilessly, flawlessly, and without resistance from the locals who were way too scared of his glowing aura to even try to fight back. He didn’t smile, as he wasn’t enjoying that either, he kept a neutral expression on his face all the time, and after he was done he started running towards the next town.

The scenario repeated itself, over and over again, every time with more deaths while also raiding bigger towns, some tried to fight back, but they were no match against Kamisato’s skills; at the end, he had raided over 7 towns and cities, killing over 20 citizens in the course of three days by himself. Contrary to what he believed, the citizens were mostly poor, with some exceptions being traveling merchants that were caught in the middle of Kamisato’s killing spree, it seemed that the socialist ideology had fooled them, and while they had nothing but some old bread to feed themselves, their capital had all the gear and important loot. For him, there was no town left but the capital, Kazkaya; he got ready for it, he knew he’d find the most people in that place, and he also knew that locals would alert their authorities sooner or later; he once again used the Nether to travel faster, but it was such a surprise when he crashed right into two known faces, it was his friend Vik from the A.W.E. and his recently met new friend May. It appeared that rumors were spreading fast, so they came to help Kamisato on his attack, he accepted the help of his friends right away, and together made their way into the capital.

The city had high walls, and spike traps from the outside, but the trio of bandits found a way into the city, climbing one of the weak spots of the walls and entering by the harbor; Kamisato entered first, followed by Vik and then by May; then the killing started, they wandered around the town, killing five citizens at first, they didn’t expect a direct raid to their capital after that massive one-man national raid against the rest of their cities, they were unprepared, and they would soon pay the price for that. The massacred lasted for one hour, even Kamisato caught one of the socialists loyalists and started torturing him in front of the house where two of his friends were hiding, forcing him to abandon his ideology and say “socialism doesn’t works” loudly. After some time they decided to do vandalism, Kamisato was having fun in an empty city with a lot of dead bodies, they even disrespected their monuments in the city square.

When their military finally showed up, they brought a whole unit and were decided to fight off Kamisato and his two friends since they outnumbered them, but after a small skirmish where the trio showed absolute superiority they barricaded themselves inside of a fortified tower, defeated and trying to shoot the attackers from a distance, while they were killing the few people that were trying to find refugee, after the second hour of the attack, both May and Vik got bored and decide to call Kamisato for leaving, he answered saying that he’d be on his way soon and that they could leave; he was the last one to leave the city, now being alone against that whole unit of soldiers, but they seemed to scared to even try to fight him alone, that meant only one thing for him, **victory.**

That was the day where a single man defeated a whole country by himself, satisfied, he finally left with all the collected loot from the small fights, finally arriving home, and although the foreign affairs minister told him to avoid raiding the U.S.S.E. again since the Empire was having good relationships with them, they didn’t dare to tell Kamisato to return the loot.

Soon, the story of a powerful and skilled warrior, who was a dangerous and merciless bandit, but also a somewhat noble person with those who were unable to defend themselves, started spreading around the nations of Eldham, a man that defeated an entire nation, a man whose name was *Endo Kamisato.*
