Chapitre 41: Princess?! Part 1

The morning of the 12th 1430 of Capri.

Artirian would slowly wake up from his slumber, his eyes would be little bit covered with a sleep crust. And then slowly stand up and do some stretching. He closed his eyes and slowly stretched his arms up wide. He would open his mouth to yawn and scratch his side before walking outside to light the campfire, he then placed two sticks on each end and a stick that would serve as a hook for the bucket so that it can boil. Soon after waiting for 10 minutes the water would boil he then got his cup and put some powdered garniel that he bought at the market before he left the Moon Scar City. He then starts to mix the powdered garniel and water inside his cup and slowly drinks it.

Artirian POV

I am thinking about her, I forgot to say goodbye and if I return I know she will be mad.I already received a message from Rommel that the Moon Scar city has won the siege and the other reinforcement forces are heading towards the border to retaliate. I feel there would be another war that is coming and I must be prepared somehow. And soon enough I could enter the famous Divine Military Academy. And be able to hold my father prestige once more.

I look at the open plains and it's the view, It was such an extraordinary breathtaking place. I once imagined when I was a kid that I wished that I could travel to these kinds of places. This kind of land was so adorable for the beauty of the land of Lecatacoriam like this, able to reach the peaceful minds of each being in the world. This is a place to be cared for and a place to be put into protection.

I hold my cup of garniel and finish it while eating some loaf bread. I feel much energized as the garniel can give some relaxation in this breathtaking view of the plains. I can see a few wild beasts that are roaming, but they are the Yurumas. They are harmless which are 4 legged wild beasts and it looks like a horse but it has Yellow and black stripes on their fur. It has a maine of brown.

Soon I need to travel inside the Argana forest and try to gain experience and in fighting some wild beasts like the Bears and Hybrid wolves.

-------------------------

After packing up his things and being ready he would tighten his grip from his Bokken sword as it became much more relaxed this past few days and Artirian had slowly been able to control its strength. From that time he would think that he gained much stronger gallant power than ever before. Artirian would enter the Argana forest and he would be pretty much dim as the sun rays can't reach the dirt below because of the tall trees and the leaves that almost covered the whole ground. Artirian can see a few shades of light that can give him some guide in entering the Argan forest.

Before he entered he saw 3 wagons of merchants that came from the Argana forest and as he observed it it was robbed. He then thinks that it would be the best to have a more cautious approach while entering. He then proceeded to walk down the Argana trails and he would notice a few cuts on the tree trunks. It looks like a fight has broken out earlier. And as he touches the cuts it looks like it was imbued by gallant force.

Then a whistle would get Artirian attention. He would then hide near a bush, as he hides his face would become a little bit alarmed on the whistle earlier. He would then slowly peek from the bush as he swayed it a little and from afar, He would see that the wagon and carriage was being overwhelmed by forest bandits.

That bandits numbered almost 50 and 20 of them are still hiding. Some of the bandits are gallant users and Artirian would see that they are to imbue their weapons to give a compelling attack. On the other side the knights would look desperate, their exhaustion has taken over them, they would be seen gasping for air as they still gripped their swords to their hands and felt a strong urge to protect the person inside the carriage. But the bandits would not give up easily soon the bandits would charge forward as they would continue to out maneuver the guards.

The guards were not that easy too as from their stance and defense position they look like they already have experienced the sort of battle so they dont look like amateurs they also know how to properly wield their sword and their excellent swings are perfect to annihilate almost 5 to 10 bandits.

Artirian would observe and watch how the guards had lacerated the bandits one by one but they also got casualties from their side; the bandits are down to 40 and there are still 20 who are hiding while the guards are 15 and 6 are wounded.

The guards would still hold their ground and then the bandit leader would reveal himself including his two lieutenants who are in each of his sides. The bandit leader's physique was buff muscular man and almost 6'5 ft tall and has a long heavy sword like a cleaver that he is holding while he puts it on his shoulder. He has a messy hair look and dirtied face; his two lieutenants were a thin guy and long hair that almost covers his face and his weapon was two daggers and another lieutenant which is a fat guy who has a hook and a chain as his weapon. The fat guy looked like a smelly kind of person that never took a bath for months.

Soon the battle overturned as the other hiding bandits started to reveal themselves slowly one by one the hidden bandits were much stronger than the first ones that were engaging the guard. The head guard would next reveal a crest of a Royal seal from the coalition kingdoms. From what Artirian observed it is a rather bad move and will only provoke the enemy bandit leader.

The bandit leader replied with a grin on his face "Well isn't from the coalition kingdoms BOYS! We have a great bounty of money ahead of us, remember! Don't hurt the person inside only the guards who are blocking our way for money!" The bandit leader would say that in a derisive tone of voice.
