章節 2: Caravan

「Bölverk Gram! 」 The war cry of a hero who's name I've yet to hear. As the blood of the giant splashed to my face, I was filled with neither fear or disgust, but awe in the man's skill and power to withstand such a strength from a giant of all things. "Are you alright sir?" I ask the man in Iron-Clad armor, that seemed like his strongest move so "Yes I'm perfectly fine, whats your name boy?" He asked me "My name is. . . Seraphim. . or Seraph" The man then chuckled "Like the angels? no matter, my name is Alexander and you are a brave one " I shrug at the thought of me being brave, how could I? after screaming loudly "I don't want to think about it. . where are you going now?" He looked up and over the cliff, inhaling and exhaling as a stream of air comes out his nostrils "I think I traveled enough, I'll be going home" Looking around my memories I don't seem to have a home so I don't have a choice huh "Where is your home, and can I stay?" He turns around to me, practically inspecting me from affar, laughing lightly he the answered "Our home, is the 「Emerald Enclave」" From the word 「Emerald Enclave」I recalled some blurry memories, I've heard the name before but when. . "Oh so I can stay, thanks very much" I stood up and pulled my scarlet scarf up as I breathe inside it, Alexander approaches me and pats me in the shoulder "People are waiting lets get going" I look up and see him already walking away "R-Right!" I ran and followed behind him——

——We walked out the mountaineous woods and into some warmer plains but despite the warmth we were still in 「Norway 」and awaiting for us or maybe him is a set of caravans, each one has a banner of a Stag in front of a shield, I were too busy looking around but it would seem that Alexander had ordered the people to escort us to one of the caravans, "Oh we're going already?" I asked him, and in turn he replied "Yes we are, a storm is coming soon so we must make it to 「Hannover」fast" I could tell a storm were coming, though I don't know why "Oh alright then" like that I hopped into one of the caravans and eventually the caravan horses began moving to the destination.

I sat and waited wondering how long It'll take and so I asked one of the people driving the caravans "How far are we?" the caravan driver could not look towards me because he were driving so he replied as he looked forward "We're half a day away from arriving" I layed my back on the seats since no one else but me and him in here with my palms behind my back "What is alexander like?" I asked him, he's been serving him for a time so he knew exactly how Alexander does things "He's relentlessly selfless, he throws himself to the battle in order to protect the most of us, this group has been alive for 2 years and none of us is gone because of him" I see that must be a heavy weight, I close my eyes and begin to drift off.

「I wonder what its like, to stand in his shoes to be powerful and all 」And so his path is clear and he peacefully slept——

——and yet a voice within Seraphim spoke 「What is it like to be powerful」the answer were subconcious Seraphim has yet to learn what he said to the question. . .
