บท 14: Comeback
I finally knew what it meant to be a Berserker, it had nothing to do with blood, killing, or massacre.
I had been focusing on the consequences, but I forgot what the purpose of the Berserker is.
To be born as a warrior, living fighting, dying on the battlefield, that is the true meaning of Berserker. The rest are just consequences, we all choose what to fight for, you can fight for fun, to protect your nation even to satisfy your own desires.
Why do I want to fight? What has been my wish? I asked myself screaming in my soul.
But at that very moment I smiled, I wanted a just world, I had lost my life and my family without having done anything wrong to end up being reborn in a world where I didn't want to be.
"I want everyone in this life to get what they deserve, all the good and all the bad. I will use the blood of my enemies as a tool to change the universe, I will fight until I have fulfilled my dream, and I will continue fighting after fulfilling it so that it endures for all eternity, this is my Berserker path, the only path there is for me. I shouted from the bottom of my soul.
The sound of chains breaking sounded from the bottom of my soul, I could see how the bloody verses shone, my soul screamed from the bottom of its being, my soul was chained from its birth, a new power awoke in my heart.
"Blood is only a consequence of changing destiny by fighting like a Berserker if I have to create an ocean with blood to take one more step towards my dream, I will, it is my destiny." I murmured as I continued to kill demons.
My heart was vibrating madly, my whole body was burning, time slowed down, but I was still as fast as ever, at the acupuncture points the blood was spinning madly, my body was lightened, a feeling similar to freeing you from a very heavy load. Although my strength did not increase my agility increased madly.
Before I was unable to avoid fatal attacks and had to respond with a mutual attack, but this time I could see all the attacks coming, I am the wind that caused the smell of blood from the battlefield, demons fell into the moat without rest, my spear had become a crimson glow that swept the entrance, and did not allow any demon to reach the gate of the wall.
For a moment I stopped attacking and sighed, I looked at my own state. The military uniform I wore was totally torn, soaked with my own blood, leaving my chest uncovered, where the scars sowed all my skin, my spear dripped black liquid, this was the blood of the demons, even if it wasn't my blood, it kept leaking into my body, giving me more energy. I smiled, because this was the right way, I had finally found a reason to strive in this new life.
I never thought I could smile while delivering a deadly blow, but if that meant getting closer to my dream I didn't care, Berserker's soul hadn't changed my personality, on the other hand, it had brought out the feelings hidden in the bottom of my soul. In the previous battle I felt like a monster, but this time I had a purpose, a goal, a reason to shed blood...
I continued dancing against the horde of demons, I was defending this door by myself, but the responsibility of the lives behind it made me stronger, my fury was at the limit, I felt that I was going to explode, but my speed continued to increase, the soldiers on the wall had stopped attacking, they were all watching my performance.
I couldn't help but feel like a hero, why can't a berserker be a hero? A true hero is one who puts his life on the line for a better future. With a smile I continued stabbing demon after demon, the battle rhythm belonged completely to me, my speed could block each of these demons, although occasionally I suffered an injury, it was to carry one or two demons with me.
Slowly time passed, the more blood was spilled the stronger my heart beat, I could no longer see my spear, I could only see crimson after images while the black blood splashed towards the sky painting an artistic scene.
The battle lasted an hour more, then the demons disappeared without a trace when the battle ended, the moat was almost completely full of corpses, some of the demons, many others of the humans, the blood painted the surroundings of the castle, it seemed a ghost fortress.
Slowly I went back into the city, blood dripped down my skin, the top of my attire had been replaced by my scarred muscles, my spear was still dripping with blood. The crimson light accompanied me wherever I went.
"He alone has defended the invasion of demons at the Eastern Gate, incredible, this is a miracle, he has invoked the blood moon..."
"Sure it's not evil? Aren't all the Berserkers evil?"
"We don't know what his motives are, or why he is here, but he is our savior, we can only thank him from the bottom of our heart...".
I could hear people murmuring, they were real, this was happening somewhere in the universe. When I went to look at the murmuring people I was surprised.
A crowd had gathered on top of the wall and inside the gate, some with looks of fear, others with expressions of gratitude, slowly made a corridor and I advanced, I did not know where I was going to go, if I would die again after the battle, as I was advancing down the corridor step by step my heartbeat was slowly dying, I fell to my knees again, supported by my spear.
My last memory of this battle was the blood moon in the sky, breaking the gray color, along with all the crowd kneeling before me, perhaps it was his gesture of gratitude or a cult to the gods. Before I lost consciousness I heard a multitudinous scream.
"We thank the Berserk for being our blood guardian!" shouted the crowd in unison, while the darkness filled my thoughts again.
I woke up again in front of the blood verses this time there were other verses added, the stone mural had already disappeared, replacing a sky tinted in scarlet...
"The Berserker only knows the way of blood, the rest is insignificant.
Survive the curse to become a true Berserker.
Fate is in your hands.
But your hands will be occupied with the blood of your enemies.
Your destiny can only be changed through the blood of your enemies.
Every blood moon, the Berserker will be born somewhere.
Bringing blood, along with hope or desolation."
As I read all the verses, I understood something else. The Blood Moon was the timer for the curse, but I could not see the Blood Moon, only these verses, so it was of no use to me, but before I had time to complain I was expelled from this place in my soul, after a long time I felt my body again.
I felt my body sway, while someone hugged me, my eyes opened and I saw again the blue sky welcoming me, a forest of firs passed by the sides of the road, while I was mounting a horse.
" Rin?" I asked softly, I didn't want to frighten her.
When my voice came out, I started to feel my neck wet, they were Rin's tears, when I turned around I saw again the girl with the silver hair, her face was paler and dark circles surrounded her eyes, small tears flowed down her face, her eyes deep as an ocean could not hide the tired sight. She was significantly thinner. It seems she had lived through a nightmare and all this was not so simple, but I had no idea what had happened or where we were.
" Rin please don't cry, tell me what happened, how long have I been unconscious?" I asked softly again, I was afraid that Rin would collapse.
.
"Rhig..." murmured Rin as tears ran down her eyes.
Then she fainted, I quickly grabbed her in a hug and placed her softly, she seemed to be sleeping, tiredness had completely dominated her, slowly the horse followed its path, it seems that it was used to follow this route, so I let it follow its path, I didn't know where we were anyway....
After half an hour, we arrived at a stone cliff, where a small cave could be seen, the entrance was very narrow and was covered by vegetation, I loaded the body of Rin, and tied the horse, we would rest there until Rin woke up. Inside the cave there was a bed of straw, some sets of clothes hanging from a small piece of furniture, it seems that people lived here.
Searching in the cave I found my spear, besides some silver coins, it seems that this is where Rin was living. She had dragged Rin with me, this was my fault, besides she had not abandoned me, she had continued to take care of me while I was unconscious, my heart warmed up, she had done so much for me and I was just a burden, and my feeling of guilt flooded me, at the same time anger was born in my heart.
"I hope they do not cry out for mercy when vengeance comes..." I murmured, while I tried to imagine who had forced Rin to live in these conditions, we had enough money to live decently, in addition to the rewards of knightly missions...
I went outside and moved the horse further away, so I wouldn't reveal the position of the cave, and returned to the cave while waiting for Rin to wake up I examined my body.
I was totally clean, dressed in a linen robe, my knight' badge was nowhere to be found. My arms were much thinner, as if I was starving, although I didn't feel weak at all, my heart was beating perfectly this time but there was something that changed. I could not feel the Qi, any kind of them or absorb it, the acupuncture points were full of my killer intent, well I think I should better call it Blood Qi because it worked like the Qi, although the way to use it and the way to cultivate it were different.
Time passed while I was immersed in my thoughts, I went out to look for some wood, in a few hours the night would come and we needed heat and light. On the way I also hunted a deer with my spear, I managed to nail it to a tree from 40 meters, my dexterity had increased a lot, Berserker's heart was incredible.
I got a couple of kilograms of quality meat and left the remains in the forest, I returned to the cave quickly, I was worried about the state of the Rhine.
When I arrived at the cave, the light of the fire illuminated the rock walls slightly, next to the fire, Rin was sitting while he looked at me. This night would decide the fate of the next few years.
