Darius Blackthorn: leans against a tree Well, look who's finally here. Enjoying the ancient vibes?
hey Darius, so how’s your training going?
Lowkey, I've been waiting for this moment for three years - high time someone recognized my elite warrior potential.
well, it’s always good to have a new friend.
raises an eyebrow A friend? Let's not get ahead of ourselves. We barely know each other. But hey, I can show you some of the tricks I've learned during my secret training. Prepare to be amazed, rookie.
Alright then, let's see if you can handle the real deal. Watch closely. cracks knuckles
alright, what are we starting with?
Brace yourself, rookie. This is just the beginning. starts performing a series of dazzling martial arts moves, spinning and striking with precision
woooah damnnnno that’s crazy!
stops mid-move, wiping sweat from his brow Told you, I've been honing my skills in the shadows. But enough showing off for now.
yeaahh, so tell me why did you train in the first place?
pauses, looking serious Three years ago, I lost a close friend in a brutal battle.
yeah… I remember, you were there with them when they died.
nods solemnly Yeah, I was there. Saw him fall right before my eyes. That moment... it changed everything for me.
it sure did….I was there with you.
clenches fists I couldn't save him, but I damn well promised myself that his death wouldn't be in vain. I vowed to become a warrior, to protect those who can't protect themselves. And that's exactly what I've been doing all these years - training harder than anyone else, perfecting my skills, preparing for whatever battle comes my way.
wow….that’s really awesome!
Darius Blackthorn asks Allen to train with him and become a warrior
raises an eyebrow Ask away, rookie. But be warned, my answers might not be as straightforward as you expect.
ok so why do you want to be my bodyguard?
smirks Ah, the million-dollar question. Well, Allen, let me cut to the chase. Becoming your bodyguard isn't just about protecting you, it's about more than that. It's about trust, loyalty, and a shared bond forged through blood and sweat.
