War has broken out for at least ten years and ravaged the whole continent due to the g*ddamn war that started due to the appearance of a person who broke the understanding of magic to the whole world.
After a bitter and harsh battle, the last battlefield, two person are standing together, both are wounded to the extent of falling down but neither are having any signs of yielding. The guy with a sword has his left eye destroyed while his other eye is emitting a gold light that for some reason, carries a heavy feeling once its gaze is cast upon. His clothes is battered up and his young face is no longer bearing his manly and handsome face, instead, a face full of wounds and dirt covers it. His body is not good either and his right hand holds a Great sword that anyone can tell to be a Magic Sword due to the runes it has on its blade. It glows scarlet red but slowly diminishes as time pass by.
The other guy holds a scythe, a grim looking scythe bigger than the wielder himself that is very dangerous with just a single look. What made it more dangerous looking is due to the fact that it looks like a weapon by the grim reaper himself. Its dark aura is very heavy that the golden eye's aura of the battered guy is competing which is the stronger aura. This guy is much younger than the former but from his murderous intent, he no longer resembles a youngster but a terrifying person. He is not on a good situation either and his clothes are also battered. His body is also covered in bruises.
"Damnable kid, you just made a huge mistake doing the forbidden spell!" the guy holding the great sword glared at the other guy, with a frown on his face.
"Hmph, look who is talking. The person who holds the power of Olfactory System. Who would have thought that you bear the power of the Sin of Pride. I am looking for a way to gain that power but who would have thought that the person I am looking as my own master holds it!" the scythe guy gritted his teeth, holding the scythe more than ever. Although his scythe looks heavy, he seems to have no problem swinging it.
"You think it is a child's play to hold this power? Holding it means that you have to take extra careful of it to avoid wars and look at what you did! You spark the war that should have not happened!" the great sword wielder opened his other eye even though it was destroyed and its eye socket that should hold the destroyed eye glows with scarlet red color. Its the power of the Sin of Pride.
"I won't let you continue the battle. I will defeat you and stop this damn war!" the greatsword guy is now resolute. He make his stance and although he is shaking, he still managed to do it.
"Che, petty guy, I will obtain that eye and become the sovereign of this world!" he also did his stance and like the former, he also struggles. Looks like its the final strikes of the two.
"Aaaahhhh!" the great sword guy charges.
"Dieeeeee!" the scythe guy charges as he readies his scythe.
Boom!
The barren battlefield filled with corpses and signs of war emits a strong wind that seems to cut every grass it pass by.
Soon, the decisive strike has been dealt. The two figures fall to the ground together like dominoes.
"I won..." the great sword man smiled as he coughed out blood.
"Tch, figures...." the scythe guy struggled a bit before his last breath is used up. His scythe that emits dangerous aura cracked and got broken. It is now a piece of scrap and now could be considered as useless.
The great sword of the great sword guy also snap into two. He smiled a bit and his dark eye gradually closes as blood fell from his eye socket. He pulls out a dagger from his sleeve and raise it to his remaining eye.
"Looks like promises are meant to be broken. My dear wife Minami, my dear daughter Yukii, and my unborn son, Tetsuo. Please take care of yourself. As one of the protector of the sin, I had to uphold the oath," The great sword guy stab his golden eye in succession before his last breath is sucked in.
The war ended. A year later, that battle will be recorded in history books.
The War of the Seven Sins.
