Taka just stood there thinking of a way to explain what had just happened but he came up empty handed, all he could do was stare back at Snow making movements with his mouth.Snow quickly came to the conclusion that whatever it was that had just happened, there was going to be a story behind it that would probably sound unbelievable. Snow always knew that Taka was special, from their first meeting he felt it but after seeing the Crown, that floated above Taka"s head and the sword that had manifested, Snow realised just how much he"d underestimated just how special Taka truly was.
Taka saw the realisation in Snow"s eyes, he let the breath out he didn"t realise he was holding.
Now relaxed the words he couldn"t muster before came flowing into his mind.
"So you want an explanation?" Taka"s tone clearly showed he wasn"t looking forward to giving the alleged explanation.
Snow nodded enthusiastically, knowing that whatever he was about to hear would change the world as he knew it.
Taka nodded and muttered to himself "Where do I start?"
"From the beginning?" Snow voiced with sarcasm, only then knowing he"d said it out loud.
"HARdy Har Har, very funny Mister I got jokes for days." Taka said back just as sarcastically.
Taka composed himself while trying to think of an explanation that was at the very least slightly plausible.
-
Taka"s internal monologue
-
Well ain"t this just a huge pile of c.r.a.p I"ve found myself in. seriously how can I explain this without sounding like a complete nut case.
Should I say something like "hey Snow I"ve lived before gone back in time and now I"ve got a system in my head that makes me stronger, shows me my stats and of yeah unlocks bloodlines that have the potential to make me into a G.o.d, and not just any G.o.d but one that even G.o.ds are afraid of and then there"s the fact I can transform into a big a.s.s b.l.o.o.d.y werewolf looking thing, well actually that"s kinda cool not gonna lie ahahahaha".
Oh and then there"s the whole thing with me being King b.l.o.o.d.y Arthur in my past life and the fact that I"ve got one of the most powerful swords in all of legend and myth, now Merlin"s only got to jump out with his big b.l.o.o.d.y staff and there we have it the perfect reunion.
c.r.a.p I just jinx myself by saying that. Great, you"re meant to be super smart Taka but how can you be so dumb.
Hmm maybe the systems broken, nahh Hacker would tell me or would he, I"m sure he messes with me sometimes.
I could be crazy I guess, at least then all this would make sense.
Nahh already been through all that ages ago, I know I"m not crazy. Anyways I"m getting off the main subject.
How do I tell Snow?
I should probably leave the system out of it. He already knows I"ve got weird abilities and he"s never asked questions. I"ll just tell him about my bloodlines, I should probably play down the Fenrir bloodline…. Or just leave it out.
Yep that"s what I"ll do. I"ll tell him about the "Once and Future King" bloodline first see how he handles that.
Sorted.
Let"s do this.
-
Back to the real world
-
Taka immediately spoke after he"d made his mind up.
"So by now you"ve probably noticed I have some rather weird abilities that most people don"t?"
"Really, Can"t say I have."
"Really?" Taka asked in surprise.
"No you idiot, of course I"ve noticed. We did those tests remember, where we literally set you on fire."
"Oh right ahahaha." Taka nodded and laughed awkwardly.
"So what about your weird abilities?" Snow asked now curious, while smirking after getting one over on Taka.
"Well long story short, they come from my bloodline and what you just witnessed was another one of my bloodlines awakening." Taka said. For a short while after Snow stood there but didn"t say or do anything.
The silence was broken soon as Snow began muttering to himself.
"So that"s what that was."
His attention was soon back on Taka.
"So leaving your other bloodlines aside for now, what was the bloodline you just awakened then?" Asked Snow inquisitively.
Taka snorted at his excitement.
"You wouldn"t believe me, even if I told you."
"Wanna bet?" Snow c.o.c.kily asked.
"Sure, why not? What you wanna bet? The normal, Food?" Taka asked.
"Sure, why not? So come on tell me, what"s the bloodline?" Snow asked, his curiosity barely containing itself.
"The Once and Future King." Taka spoke. When he did the winds died down and nature quietened down as if paying respect.
"Huh?"
"You know Arthur Pendragon?"
"Huh?"
"King Arthur?"
"Huh?"
"You know the King of Camelot? Merlin"s Best bud?"
Every reply from Snow for the next few minutes was simply "Huh", that was until he began muttering under his breath. Taka started to grow worried at his friend"s strange behaviour.
Snow"s behaviour was presenting like someone possessed. His words gaining in volume the more he muttered.
"Once."
"Future."
"King"
"Pendragon."
"Arthur."
"Camelot."
Until he finally burst out of it.
"Holy s.h.i.t you"re King Arthur."
"Was King Arthur, technically." Taka returned with a smirk.
Snow muttered to himself once again.
"It all makes sense. The feeling I kept getting. He really is a King."
Again he burst out with his thoughts.
"Wait that sword? It was Excalibur, wasn"t it?"
Taka nodded.
"Wow!" Childlike awe could be seen on Snow"s face, which was soon replaced by a look of mischief.
"It"s an honour to meet you your Highness."
"I really wanna punch you right now." Taka said deadpanned, which left Snow in a fit of laughter that didn"t end for quite some time.
Time pa.s.sed by as Taka continued to explain things to Snow.
"So your bloodline gives you the ability to knight people?" Snow asked.
"Yep and not just that. When I knight people they gain an ability."
"What sort of ability?"
"I dunno depends on the person." Taka shrugged.
"Well that"s interesting." Before Snow had the chance to answer Taka asked him the question.
"So you wanna be the first knight of the round table Snow?" Taka smiled.
Snow chuckled before his face grew serious.
"I thought you"d never ask."
