This world once was born from kindness shaped by those who believed in warmth, laughter, and happiness
But kindness alone couldn't protect it forever.
Where there's light, there are shadows.
And in those shadows, demons crawled free.
Some hunt. Some rules and some just want to haunt.
The most dangerous one is those who wear the skin of they devour. They blend and smile with them like they belong there.
The world where it's all happening.
It's also have the resolve.
Humanity uses spirit weapons to fight with darkness.
The weapons who has its own will, a soul. Some are being passed down by generations. Royal gifts delivered some. Some obtained by killing the previous wielder.
But they all have one thing common in them.
These weapons are so special, but they also have so much pride. They choose their owner, their wielder. If they don't accept you. You are just holding a piece of metal.
There are 20 legendry weapons scattered all around the world that are known for their exceptional dominance. Some days, they have special powers. Some say their previous wielder was special. But they all work as the same. Accept the respect and bond with their wielder.
In between the chaos, a boy who still doesn't want to go anywhere without his protective shield, his mother lives in a small village Ranji. 100 years ago, a white-haired swordsman discovered the village. He slew the demons and discovered this village, known for its beauty.
Ranji is just like your normal village. Crops are growing. Flowers are blooming. Peoples are taking care of cows and pigs. Children play and old laugh. This village was so peaceful.
This village had around 20-30 house in it. Not from far, you can find him. Enma. He lives with his gentle and warm mother just four houses far at the entrance. Enma's grandfather made the house when he first arrived here. It was a small but quiet home with a garden where Jena grows veggies here. She is a lovely and kind-hearted, warm woman, but she kinda always worried about something. Her son Enma. Enma is a quiet, timid child. He is so shy and scared child that he most of the time spent with his mother and doesn't go to play with kids his age.
Darius was his late father's best buddies. After enma's father passed away, he often came to check on enma. Darius is in military officer often brings toys for him. He really was like a father figure to him. Jena is also trusting him. But they both were little worried about enma. As he is growing, he keeps becoming shy guy, not wants to let it go her mother's sleeve.
In enma's house, he lived with Jena, his mother, and Shiro, their pet cat, a lazy fatty cat. Enma often plays with Shiro until he meows and scratches his face and hurts enma. Enma is very timid. While other kids play on ground fall, laugh and enjoy. He never wants to leave his mother's side. Enma just really not like crowed and unfamiliar faces. The family was small. But it was a happy, small family. A caring, motherly, timid, shy boy with a fatty, lazy cat. They were not rich, but they were happy.
Then it's happened
One day while enma playing with Shiro in on. A horn figure walk tin village. It's heading towards houses. Jena was preparing meals while Shiro was on window yawning. They were unaware what's was coming in the village. Suddenly the door burst and horn figure came. It was a demon. Red demon eyes with fangs that strong, that it can even destroy armour and tear ribs out of body. He passes the kitchen and head over the living room. He saw enma. As enma's gaze met to him, he froze. Not even screaming sounds were coming from his mouth. Shiro started weirdly meowing. Jena thought enma again tried to eat Shiro's tail and he scratch back. As she came, she shocked and stunned. Enma froze, and the floor was wet. In the fear enma made his pants wet. The demon charged towards enma. Jena stands between them with frying pan in her hand, trembling. But the demon passed, leaving her unharmed like didn't even were there. Enma stunned, she quickly hit the demon with frying pan to get his attention. In shaking voice she said, "run honey. Run enma"
But Enma's fear caused his legs to buckle. Demon roar saying "stay away women". It was strange,then Shiro jumped at the demon's face and started scratching. Demon throws him out of window. Then Jena again hit him with pan. Demon got angry. He attacked her. Even that demon started tearing her apart, her smile didn't fade. She is giving enma smile and keeps telling him to run away even her eyes filled with tears.
Demon killed Jena in front of enma. He ate her. Partially body remained. After eating her demon sigh said, "it's not my fault she angered me" and walked away. While enma is crying shaking uncontrollably.
