While Alexander was telling me his story all I did was sit calmly and listened, when he got to this point his hands started shaking slowly.I could see that this part was hardest for him to tell.
"She screamed at me and started hitting me, telling me that while im with her I"m not allowed to be near those pigs, at that moment I felt like hitting her back but, I knew if I did that she would just go cry to her daddy and I would have started a war with them. I didn"t want to give father that kind of trouble, so I just kept my mouth shut and just took her beatings."
"After a while, her beatings got harsher and harsher, she started using whips and sticks, as well as demanded that I smile around her.
She threatened me that if I were to tell my father that she was doing this she would tell her dad that I"m lying and would demand war."
"She knew what she was doing, she was a manipulator, whatever she wanted, she would act all nice to get it."
"The following week we went to Ellie"s Kingdon for our engagement party, the whole week she was acting nice for the first time in days, her daily torture had stopped and she was enjoying the party for the full four days it lasted l, but when we returned back to Father"s kingdom the first person to wait for us at the gates of the wall was my father."
"His face was shocked and sad at the same time when I saw him I rushed out of the carriage and asked him what the matter was he answered me with "your mother died four days ago", my mind went blank and I rushed to her room. The doctors were gone and the room was empty but on the table surrounded by a sea of flowers her body was laying down, which just shows how much the people loved her."
"Not long after that father and Ellie arrived at mothers room, I just stood there looking at her, my face made so much water that I made the flor wet, Father came to me and pulled me to the side of the room, he whispered in my ear while his mouth was shaking " the village... you grow up in...it was burned to the ground...
no one survived, they were attacked by bandits." while he told me that my mind could only think of one thing and that was her. She stood there pretending to cry as if she cared about my mother or something, but I knew all she wanted was the crown.

"Later when father and I were alone I learned the truth, he told me that the village wasn"t burned by some bandits as it said in the report, but by the royal army of Ellie"s kingdom."
"Apparently Ellie demanded of her father that my village be raided and destroyed because she didn"t like the attention I was giving to them and not to her. Father sad that he had someone investigate and that"s the information they found out."
"After all that, I locked my self in my room and would barely leave it. I haven"t changed my clothes once since then, the times I would leave were to eat or to go take a bath and in both cases I tried committing suicide, but unfortunately, the maids always saved me in the last minute, and then one morning when I opened the door of my room there was a box in front of it, the box
contained an hourgla.s.s and when I turned it on its head I ended up here."
While listening to his story I felt like an idiot, every time I talked about my problems and made it seem like a big deal he had actually lost his entire life, and he still continued to smile and help me.
-After that point, Rin decided to become even more serious than he already was, he wanted to be there for Alexander and help him just how he helped Him.
"I"m really sorry for always talking about my problems when you had to deal with all of that..."
"Oh, don"t be, it"s no..."
"I want to help you, just how you helped me, I want to be there to lend you a shoulder to cry on, whenever you need."
-Alexanders eyes burst into tears, tears of happiness, while he looked up at Rin who was easily smiling at him.
"Thank you, my friend!"
We spend the whole time talking about random stuff just random chit chat, but only after all of that did I finally feel as I understood him.
"Oh, yeah you mentioned in your story that you invented a whole new style of sword fighting, right?"
"Yeah, I did, but it was a while since I used it."
"So what"s it called?"
"It doesn"t have a name?
" It doesn"t? how come?"
"Well, I was to focus on developing it that the thought of naming it never came to mind."
"Is that so, say we still have a while until we"re ready to take on Hora, so how about you teach me that style of yours?"
"You want me to teach you my style? there"s no need you"re already a good swordsman and your ability isn"t focus around a sword, so learning it would be meaningless."
"well, I have been thinking for a while, ever since you started teaching me how to use a sword, about something and If Im right I would be even stronger."
"Sounds interesting, I guess it"s worth giving a shot, now listen closely my style may not have a name but its very powerful (in my opinion),
it cant be used with a normal blade you need a long sword, it took me about a year to master it so expect the same amount of time to take you."
"All right."
"The training starts tomorrow, now go to sleep."
"yes, Master."
