Kapitel 64: chapter 64 : Lenard Publius the rune poet prt3
Everyone was gathered in the library , sitting on a huge table . They were all staring at Lenard.
" Runes of creation
Untainted holiness , language of creation
The architect of the universe
Engraved deep in the foundations of all things
O ye language of old , grace me with a blessing foretold
Let thunder roar , carrying the anger of gods
To show the unwise the true scope of your power
Laugh at the mortal world , for your power shapes all
Laugh with thunder
Thunder laughs with a booming voice,
Leaves us with little choice,
But to listen in awe,
To its mighty law,
Nature's noise, not white noise. " Thunderous booms resounded continuously startling everyone , Lenard's whole body wad covered in shining runes
" Can you please teach me how to do that?" Dan spoke up his eyes fixated on Lenard
Lenard shook his head with a smile "poetic runes are not everyone's mug of wine " Dan's shoulders fell in disappoinment , everyone laughed at his reaction
"But is it not the same thing? I mean incantations and reciting a poem....are they not the same?" Timothy asked the one question majority of the group had
"Ahhh. yes , one might choose to think of it that way but incantations are just formulas intended to trigger a magical effect using the breath . Basically you just say what you want to see happen and it happens . And the formulas can either be spoken or sung. While rune poetry has the power to capture the breath and communicate a message like no other , every word coming out of my mouth is imbued with breath and relayed to the elements , just like how I made thunder roar with my poem . With an incantation you get both lightning and thunder not one but both of them , but with rune poetry you can relay your feelings to the elements directly and the elements will relay your feelings back. If you want thunder you will get thunder , not thunder and lightning and if you want rain of fire then that is exactly what you will get. But in the first stages of rune poetry it's pretty useless because your enemies can attack you faster than you can attack them but when you are in the mastery stage you no longer have to recite a poem because the elements will be responding to your will directly. And the power of an attack done by a rune poet is 2 times stronger than your regular Konqueror. In other words a a rune poet soul seed konquer's attack power is equal to that of a soul sprout Konqueror " Lenard explained lazily , his head resting in his palm .
"Wow . But how come we have never heard of rune poets before ?" Komoni asked
"Well , that has to do with the soul . You all now about the body of souls right? See how many elements do you know of?" Lenard asked looking at the group
Carolyn raised her hand making everyone chuckle , Lenard nodded towards her " darkness , light , lightning , air , fire , water , earth and plants " Carolyn hurriedly spoke
" Those are the seven known elements , so what happens when a Konqueror possess a deep affinity with all seven known elements? You get me . Being able to hear and understand the elements , understand the feelings the user of the element is going through . That is why facing a rune poet in battle is a death sentence for you incantators because .... actually let us demonstrate this , Finn would you be a gentleman ." Lenard smiled at Finn who was sitting opposite him on the other end of the table
Finn raised his hand " Runes of roaring flames , burning sea of hezo" flames covered the whole room but they did not set anything ablaze . The heat from the flames was unbearable , everyone among the group had raised a barrier to protect themselves from the heat but their attempts were futile . Lenard smile as took in their struggling expressions .
" Flames of creation and destruction
First spark of the universe
Calm your rage , be gentle like a breeze
Spare me your your torturous heat
Dance like a wild flower in the wind , beautiful and silent
Calm your rage an dance silently" the heat from Finn's spell died down ,the flames danced silently but no heat was emitting from them . The others stared at the scene in awe , slowly retracting their barriers .
"You ... You pacified his majesty's flames?" Komoni's eyes were wide open . Lenard lazily laughed
" See what I meant when I said it's deadly for you guys to face a rune poet in battle? One can render the effects of your attacks useless . Fortunately for you the number of rune poets I know can be counted on one hand . If you ever met one ...run" Lenard's voice was somber at the last sentence
"Uhm , can i please talk to you in private . It is about a certain poem ..." Everybody turned to look at Timothy . His gaze was on Lenard the whole time
Lenard nodded and they left the room to go to his study , Finn frowned but he quickly replaced it with a blank expression.....
....
" Beautiful chaos
Dreadful order
Peace can never be found in wars
For runes record and runes sees all
Runes are creation and destruction
Order is chaos beautified " Timothy recited the poem that has been stuck in his mind ever since the day he met Renfir.
Lenard's reaction was one of true shock , he continuously glanced at Timothy his mouth opening and closing . Eventually he sighed and chuckled
Timothy knew that Lenard was most likely going to report this to Finn but he was not worried about that. His mid was in a state of turmoil with the events of Concilia plus the strange encounter with the oracle back in Zebha. Currently he did not even understand himself or his purpose.
" Have you heard the legend of the living runes? " Timothy shook his head
"It is said that long ago rune was a sentinent being that took part in the creation of all things , but they were sealed by the other beings that were present during the creation . Two of those beings were order and chaos, they were the ones that plotted for rune to be sealed ." Lenard had a somber expression as he spoke
"What does that have to do with what I have just told you? " Timothy asked baffled by Lenard's whole story
"I think rune is the one trying to convey a warning to you . You see in every legend there is a small amount of truth , just like how every lie has elements of truth in it." Lenard explained
Timothy pondered his words and he knew that he was right , he should stop trying to use logic in the world of Konquerors.
" So what can I do ?" He asked after sorting out his thoughts
" Be my student ." Lenard's voice was commanding
"I would love to but I'm not like you , I do not have an affinity with all the seven known elements . Hell I do not even know what type of element do I have , all I know is that it's related to sound ....is sound even an element? " Timothy asked with a self deprecating laughing
- We have to protect him at all cost...- the only thought in Lenard's mind
" You may have awakened an unknown element but keep it a secret , people who awaken unknown elements have their elemental souls stolen from them turning them into vegetables. Oh did I forget to add that rune poetry can be taught to anyone but it's much much harder if a person does not have a deep affinity with all the elements , I do not know how a person with an unknown element will fare. But nonetheless I believe I can teach you many things urm what's your name again?" Lenard scratched the back of his head with a soft laugh
""Timothy ....no family name. Alright I accept you as my master." Timothy bowed under Lenard's scrutinizing gaze
- A Mesa with no last name ? Boy it seems like there is a lot you do not know about yourself..... Pretty interesting group you have here Finn-
" Right , from now on you will no longer be sharing the room with the rest of them . Secondly you have to read , knowledge is power...oh and from now on you are in charge of cleaning the library ." Lenard smiled brightly . Timothy's left eye twitched for some few seconds before sighing and obediently nodding .
"Right right now let's go join the others. " They left the study . Lenard kept stealing glances at Timothy's back , shaking his head in the process .
- my days of peace are now over...damnit- .....
..
" Hentesa is the only kingdom in the world whom it's citizens are aware of Konquerors , they also have training grounds for Konquerors and that is why I brought you all here ."Finn explained to the rest of the group
" Are those huge amphitheaters the training grounds?" Dan asked
"No those are for entertainment purposes. The training grounds are actually down below , at the bottom of this sinkhole . They call them THE DEEP I have also trained there a decade ago but now it's your turn to challenge the horrifying creatures that live in the depths. That also includes you two ." Finn pointed at Sydney and Carolyn , the two princesses gulped
The whole room went silent , one could even hear a pin drop but that silence was disturbed by Lenard's enchanting laughter . They all stared at the staircase waiting for the two's arrival , Lenard had his arm wrapped around Timothy . Laughing.
Timothy looked embarrassed .
" That was longer than expected " Finn voiced out his discontent
Lenard who was smiling turned to him " what were you expecting , it's not a crime for a master to spend time getting to know his disciple. And besides you have a lot of company here."
Finn frowned at Lenard's words , Barely holding himself back from destroying the whole building
"What do you mean disciple? "
*I took him in as a disciple Finn, do you have a problem with that?" Lenard asked his smile still plastered on his face
"And you did not think that it would be fine to let me now first?" The temperature in the room was rising pretty fast
" My Lord forgive my master , he did not plan it . It happened after I told him about a certain situation I am faced with." Timothy knelt on both knees
Finn stared at him for a while and he shook his head leaving the room .
"Oh well , who is up for some wine?" Lenard asked his voice containing huge amounts of excitement. Everyone got up and left the room without answering him , leaving him and Timothy alone
"Fools , they do not appreciate wine. Oh well it's their loss come let us drink together ." ...
