"That's why you said you were a slave..." Zlata murmured, "Now... I... I understand...""Well, after contracting myself with this ass sword-" I said as I unsummoned Desire. "-I suddenly woke up in an unfamiliar forest, confused and shaken. And that when I meet with this woman, wielding a sword and have a wing on her back."
"Did you know what she instantly do to me?" I said with a graver emotions, reliving one of my trauma. "She stab me, in the chest. She ******* stab me, an innocent civilian that just woke up, confused in the middle of a forest. And that bitch ******* stab me."
Breath in, breath out.
I hold myself back from shouting and throwing a tantrum as I exhale and inhale, trying to calm myself. I really should already overcome that incident.
"I can feel my mana getting sucked up by her sword while I was groaning in pain. Then suddenly- another winged woman comes to my rescue, she killed the one that stabbed me and bringing me to her house."
"I was being healed there by another woman like her. Apparently they are another races that inherently have an eternity sword from their birth. Spirit."
"These spirit are a soldier of a kingdom named Rakios, that kingdom is on a war with their neighbours. They taught me how to speak and read their language, they taught me the common sense in their land."
"And when the news of my appearance came to the king-" I balled my fist, anger comes at me. "-he literally force me to come at his castle, force me to fight their human soldiers and even the spirit that healed me before."
"After surprisingly defeated the spirit, the king instantly enslaved me and make a commander of his army."
"Can you imagine that?" I asked Zlata rhetorically. "A teenager without an experience in a death and life battle, that haven't even lead anyone in his entire life, taking a mantle of a commander in a war?"
"That is such a funny jokes that I sometimes feel grateful for them. If not for those ***** that came at me, I won't be standing here in front of you."
"And so, I learn war tactics, strategy and more importantly- how to fight."
"Territory upon territory me and my army conquered, yet that greedy king still hasn't satisfied with his ambition. He was determined to conquer the entire continent, and so I was there- fighting through a bunch of spirits in the desert, alone. Before I suddenly appeared at Ankara, Turkey."
"So... What do you think about my story? Quite interesting isn't it?"
She didn't quite relate given her past as well being unique on its own right, however. "However...."
Her eyes looked at him, "That's all the more reason I have to be someone who will help you get through it." her voice beamed with an aura of sincerity.
"There's Warlords out there who would do evil for the sake of being evil. Destroy because they exist to do so. Manipulate others to do their horrific bidding, without any form of remorse nor mercy. And so many bad things that it's practically endless. They're... they're the villains of this world. Evil lords who wants nothing but to spread mishap whenever they go."
She spoke like she was speaking to a crowd, enough to inspire millions, even billions, with her mere words.
"And that's why, I want to become a symbol of peace and hope. I have to be a hero that gives light to people that were once like you, tortured and enslaved, transported to a world they know little about."
There is a concept called charisma that exists. One that allows a person to seemingly go on and follow them simply because what they're saying closely is tied to them in some way. But there also exists another...
National patriots and martyrs alike, those well-known in history did the same thing.
They embody change. Change for the betterment of the world, change for the people.
And if there's anything like a superhero in a comic book given form...
"I will save as much people as I can to the best of my abilities. I won't let anyone hurt your people, nor anyone else any longer. Because I will be a hero who would bring your smile back, bring everyone's smiles back. No matter what happens, I will keep pushing forward. I'll fight against fate and twist the malignant bleak darkness into a bright future."
...then Zlata embodies that completely.
"Because in this world. People who smile are the strongest..." smiling as she said it.
