World Terror 41 Rental Contrac

By the time Hito and Leon were done with their private meeting, Corpse puppet had finished building the mechanical tent. soon after Leon left the tent, Hito checked if the tent was well hoisted and then walked to the group,

" Man I just finished setting up the tent, it will be a pain to dismantle it without using it for once. So I say we follow Sukehime sama's plan. " Complained Hito nearing the group, Masako and the Team looked at Hito his waist where his sword Owari no Ken used to be hung now its empty and then they looked at the sword in Leon's hand it looked like, no it was Owari No Ken. Hito noticed Masako and the teams weird looks and explained,

" What are you guys looking at? Leon has joined my school and is the first inheritor of my sword style. Being his teacher I gave my Owari no Ken as a welcome gift to him, Just following the customs my master gave that sword to me when I became his student now I am doing the same. "

Masako and the rest of the team were bewildered, especially Masako. She was perplexed and confused. When she and her grandma first met Hito, Sukehime requested him if she could hold Hito's blade but Hito rejected her polite request giving a silly reason that a swordsman's sword never levels his side but now he actually not only gave away his sword to a mortal whom he meet few hours ago but also accepted him as his pupil these did not sit right with her , she knew something happened between Hito and Leon. If Hito did not want to talk about it she could always ask Leon, he could not lie to her after all he is her follower, but before she could as Leon , Sukehime with her eyes signaled Masako not to do so.

Sukehime was also surprised to see Leon successfully not only gain the swordsmans.h.i.+p of Hito but also his sword Owari no Ken. When Leon asked her permission to learn Hito's swordsmans.h.i.+p, Sukehime warned Leon that she could not help him in this matter, If he wanted to learn the Sword Style of Hito then he will only have to convince Hito to teach him his sword style, Sukehime was not confident in Leon to be able to convince Hito into teaching him his sword style as according to what Information she had on Hito he was not the kind to get close to someone. Death of his master hit Hito very hard so he hides behind the corrupt front to avoid getting close with someone such person would not care about pa.s.sing on his sword style or take on a disciple, as for getting the sword from Hito it was near impossible as he treated it as his one and only close blood relative and family there is no way Hito would willing pa.s.s that sword to someone, as far as Sukehime knew Leon didn't stand a chance of learning Hito's Sword style much less get the sword owari no ken from him. That's why it surprised Sukehime when she saw Leon carrying the Owari no Ken, her first guess was Leon had use some witchcraft to confuse Hito and get his hands on the sword but when Hito explained it to her an the team she was more surprised as what he said was totally opposite what she had thought about him. She was also curious to how Leon convinced Hito into taking him as a disciple to pa.s.s on the Heartless Sword style and Owari no Ken. but she chose not to ask Hito or Leon further because she could see James and the rest were dissatisfied with Leon, even though she did not know why she did not want to add oil to the fire so decided to quench this curiosity some other time and she signaled to Masako to leave it for now.

" Now that you have given your sword to your disciple, what are you going to use to battle? " said Masako a little dissatisfied with Hito, Hito Knew Masako was angry with him but he did not care, as In return for taking Leon as his first disciple and teaching him his heartless sword style along with pa.s.sing him the owners.h.i.+p Owari no Ken, he received something which start his journey of the continent in first place, even though pursuit of reaching the peak of swordsmans.h.i.+p was one of the goal of his journey around the continent, there was this another reason he began his journey and that was answers answer which only his late master could give him, which was clearly not possible unable to come in terms with his situation Hito decided to go on a journey to polish is swordsmans.h.i.+p and meanwhile also try to find the answer to the question that were bugging him.

Till now Hito was nowhere near getting the answers to these questions until Leon proposed to him a way to get these answers in return for accepting him as his first disciple, teaching him the heartless sword style, and pa.s.sing on the Owari no Ken to him. Hito never treated Owari no Ken as a sword or a tool to cut but he treated Owari no ken like a kin, with it by his side he never felt like a orphan he always felt that the only thing he could trust asides from himself was the Owari no Ken, he could trust on it to cut all his pain away, to cut all these heartache, to cut all the emotions boiling inside his heart, to cut the doubts he has, to cut the fears he has, to cut the demons inside his heart. Owari no Ken was more than just a sword to him but he was willing to let go of it for the answers for the questions that plagued him, because Once he gets the answers to these questions he will be rid of all this chaotic emotions haunting him, so he would not require Owari noKen anymore to cut the emotions his heart. Hito was not sure if all his chaotic emotions and doubts will be solved after getting the answers but he knew that he was willing to pay anything to get these answers.

" I have another one here, Oni no Ken, this used to belong to my father. " said Hito, taking out a jet black sword with red edges.

Oni on Ken, Sword of Demon, It is not actually a sword it is a demon sword whoever wields it will be possessed by the demon, losing his soul his body will belong to the demon spirit in the sword. For a human to use this sword without harm they have to sign a contract, usually the contract is of equal relations.h.i.+p but this doesn't work out for the swordsman as it does not stop the demon playing tricks on the swordsman. Then there is the master slave contract, Human as master and the denon as the slave. This one is the most beneficial of all the contracts available but getting a demon to sign such a contract is near impossible.

But Hito Had a different kind of contract with Oni no Ken, rental contract. A rental contract is where the swordsman pays the demon sword for every time it's drawn; this rent is determined during the rental contract most of the times the rent is paid in the form of soul or blood. Hito's Oni no Ken prefers soul, every time he draws it he will have to pay the soul with one soul within a time period if he is not able to do so then the Demon sword is able to take the swordsman's soul as compensation.

Most demons and Swordsmen prefer thisRental contract. Because this is a win win for the demon and the swordsman. Even though equal contract is the most profitable to the demon sword they do not prefer to do so because once a swordsman is processed by a demon it is chased by the entire human kind, so they prefer a stable and continued source of income through the rental contract. This is also good for the swordsman as they do not have to be alway on lookout with the Demon sword, this no way in h.e.l.l means that they can trust the sword, it's still a demon betrayal and trickery is in its nature.

Oni no Ken was the sword which Hito found hidden in his master's room after his master's death, it was also this sword which filled Hito's head with various questions infesting his head with worms of doubt.
