The Sinful Young Master

He spent a few days reading the book and then he concluded that first he needed to prepare his body. Jolthar was too weak and lean. 

The book mentioned that to prepare one's body and mind were the first essential things a swordsman must do. 

It was the basic. 

Later comes the sword training. The book mentioned the levels and flow in which one should practise the sword to master it.

It was like Tier 1, basic level, Tier 2, advanced levels, Tier 3, intermediate levels. Every tier was described in detail with figures of the swordsman holding the sword and the stance and postures.

He threw himself into this training with fervour, getting up early in the morning each day to run, stretch, and perform countless repetitions of bodyweight exercises. 

At first, he struggled to understand. He was just a construction worker, he didn't know much about the swords and all. He watched movies or TV in his free time but never read novel stuff or anything related to this. But he wasn't about to back down. Once he sets his mind on something, he won't be able to stop himself until it is done.

It was like when you found your favourite game, you would sit all night to finish it.

The idea of a sword and training with it was exhilarating, and the profoundness in the book really made him fantasize.

Whoever wrote, they must have really loved the sword.

He practised following the book's guidance for a year.

He was now 15 years of age and lately, he had been interested in sword smithing. It piqued his interest.

He was content that the book showed the guidance he required for the training but the book didn't have any sword techniques, to progress further he needed to a sword technique.

In the book, it was mentioned that the ancestor who wrote it left his sword on his tomb and whoever was eligible, could pull the sword off his tomb he mentioned that there was a technique inside his tomb.

The mentioned tomb was in their cemetery, back at the Stormholme Keep.

He went to the cemetery and searched for the tomb and while he was searching, he found a room.

He entered the room, and as soon as he entered, darkness engulfed him, he couldn't see anything.

So he brought a lantern and went in.

There were a lot of stone tombs around.

In the dark, he could make out rectangular long tombs all over.

As he wondered, he saw a large tombstone which was white and different from the others.

On top of the white tomb, there was a sword.

A long, rusted sword, plunged into the tombstone. Jolthar felt like the sword was calling to him and he involuntarily moved to the tomb

As he reached the tomb, his hand moved and touched it. As soon as he touched, like a magnet, the sword clutched to his hand. The next second, the white slab on the tomb, broke.

Then a skeleton was revealed.

On top, there was a book. he took and read the name as the Sword of Chaosbane.
