Capítulo 33: ON GOING.
With the light of dawn as a great sign it seemed that the intense raid on the town had ended, yet everything that had happened had left nothing but ruins and destruction in its wake, both magicians, and Elise had gathered outside. of the town to treat their wounds.
Meanwhile, Tylos, who seemed to be in perfect condition, decided to enter the place again to confirm if there were any survivors or if there were any monsters left, but all the corpses of both monsters and "people" had disappeared, it was just as he had been told. Gwydion and Lariat.
Crying!
Crying!
-Tylos: I will help you, don't despair, I'm already here.
The boy ran without thinking, following the crying, and to his surprise it was that girl that he had seen at the inn the night before, she was a semi-human, that night he had not been able to observe her well, she belonged to the black wolves with red eyes. This surprised the boy quite a bit because it was believed that they were a tribe that was already extinct in the present.
She was under some rubble, normally she could get out of there without help, demihumans are very strong by nature, but she was to hurt to do so.
She moved the rubble carefully until she managed to get it out of her, she couldn't stand up, but she was aware of it, other than that she seemed to look at Tylos with some malice.
-Tylos: Can you hear me well? How are you? I'm Tylos. Is there anyone else around here who needs help?... come on, I won't hurt you, we met yesterday at the inn, remember?
- You, you're a friend of that guy! I'm not going back to him, that's why you came back to look for us, you want to take me with him, let me go, let me go, you humans, you just don't want us to have fun with our misfortune, you damned fooled us... ahg They, all of them, my friends… unfortunate people I will kill them.
-Tylos: do you think I came back for something so unpleasant? I don't know who that guy is, and I'm not with him.
The girl looked at him with distrust and seemed to want to crawl away from her, even so, the boy took her in her arms, and although he struggled at first, little by little he stopped doing so as he walked with her.
-Tylos: is there no one else? that he spent with the other girls.
- They, they and I tried to escape, but they were devoured...
After you freed us in the square we tried to flee to the south, the rubble fell on me while you were fighting, they left me and I could see how they were attacked by the other "people." They didn't see me, that's why I'm still alive.
The boy turned his face away with a gloomy look, because at the end of it all he couldn't save them all, it wasn't his fault, it wasn't his duty, he didn't know them for more than a few hours, but a burning in his chest took its toll, Well, even with his strength, he couldn't protect a handful of people, so what would happen when he really sought to protect those who really mattered to him, was what was going through his head while a distant look appeared in his eyes. HAS NOTHING CHANGED SINCE THAT DAY? It was what he thought.
-It's not your fault, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have distrusted you.
-Tylos: It's not what you think, I just didn't want it to end like this.
-You are very reckless, who would take a risk to simply protect someone like that, and even more so against those monsters, no one would have blamed you for running away, but you stayed. My name is Aisha, thank you for saving me, it's not much, but I would like you to visit my home in gratitude.
-Tylos: I guess I have time, after I'm not on the other side of the world of course.
They both laughed as they walked through the town destroyed in pieces, there were no bodies, no blood, no remains, just rubble and a faint trace of the people who had once lived there, everything seemed a facade of what had at some point existed. was the Sentinel village, since who knows how long these people had been puppets for the Delphi experiments.
-Gwydion: run, quickly boy, they are going to come out of the forest and they could see you, run.
Tylos did not understand what the old man was referring to, but in the blink of an eye he was in front of him.
-Gwydion: I find it hard to believe that after everything that happened you find yourself as if nothing had happened, I see that you were able to find someone, well done, but now, now, go into the cabin at once, everyone is already inside... you have to observe which is what they will do.
The confusion on the boy's face became evident, but soon he heard them, his march could be heard in the distance, the earth rumbled, and the trees moved.
An immense number of knights appeared from the road with armor very similar to that worn by Liria, so Tylos knew immediately that it was the church.
-Gwydion: what happens here, it is a complete legion, which is supposed to come to make a number of knights like this to this remote place on the continent.
More and more knights continued to come and go out of the forest, it seemed like a crusade, because they carried pack animals and "helpers" as they subtly called them because they were nothing more than semi-humans that they had enslaved during the battles and exterminations that they had carried out during their "evangelization."
-Lariat: Look, it's Lord Rosinante, we should go out and talk to him.
-Gwydion: right now, that is not wise, I only consider him an acquaintance, and the reason for taking a legion to a place as remote as this here at this precise moment is very questionable, I would prefer that we observe for now.
The knights settled in the place, began to record everything and take notes, but even this "Rosinante" did not seem surprised at all to find only ruins where there was supposed to be an entire village.
Rather, everyone began to draw a magic circle on the ground, multiple conjurers were present, the circle covered the entire town and in its center was Rosinante, master of the sword.
Once it was drawn, they began to bring slaves, several hundred, and they made them enter the circle and there the massacre began. Along with the sorcerers, a crowd of spearmen formed, and they cornered the slaves, starting to cross them and staining the ground with blood as if They were streams until none were left alive.
-Tylos: what the hell are they doing, I'm going out, there won't be anyone left.
-Gwydion: no, don't do it, this is more serious than it looks, don't do it, there are greater forces involved in this.
-Tylos: You tell me to just watch... I can't believe it.
-Lariat: do what he says, this, this is horrible, no matter how strong you are, you will not be able to against them, and we are to hurt to face them and then there is that old man Rosinante, he is truly strong.
The old Rosinante, who was the only one who was not wearing his knight's helmet, lay in the center of the massacre bathed in blood, the lifeless bodies of the slaves surrounded him, but he paid little attention, he stabbed his sword into the ground and together to the sorcerers he shouted Rewind!
To the surprise of Tylos and Lariat who were the ones watching what was happening, the buildings, the rubble and everything began to take the shape it had before it had been destroyed, even the lifeless bodies began to reform as if they were wax until remain like the people they had seen in the town.
-Gwydion: What kind of alteration of the natural order is this.
-Lariat: It's barbaric, why are they doing it, it's as if they wanted no one to know what happened here.
-Tylos: they look the same as the "people", those monsters that were destroyed during the battle.
-Gwydion: we must get as far away as we can from this place, as soon as they leave, we will leave in a hurry.
-Aisha: my village is hidden from the path, few know it, we can go there.
The boy sighed because the girl did not see the massacre that occurred to the poor demihumans that were out there, she would surely have gone crazy seeing something like that.
-Tylos: let's go there
-Gwydion: I guess it's okay, look, they're leaving...
The great legion marched towards the direction from which they had been traveling, which left everyone quite intrigued and left the boy with great uncertainty and a bad feeling.
Unrest and a thirst for blood began to emerge from him because what the knights had done seemed unprecedented to him, but this time reason was stronger than his desire, however, perhaps a great instinct or Rosinante's experience in combat allowed him to do so. He made him turn around because he felt that penetrating gaze that seemed to stalk him, but he saw nothing, because that cabin was still hidden on another plane, but without a doubt he could recognize Tylos' bloodlust, it was as if a huge beast was watching him.
