章節 43: Chapter 43: Gentle Retaliation
* Dagfinn *
* It was a one-sided massacre, it is clear that fath Philotas had not invested his money in an amateur army. To tell the truth having a private army was rather beneficial, no need to train them they are already veterans, as long as you pay them they obey and especially they are rudely effective. The guys from Nisos had no problem with those low-level thieves. I saw him put on a sadistic smile as he spike them on the halberd. His men were like him, sadists in love with combat. The thing is, it was hitting all over the place and a lost arrow it quickly happened *.
-One team protects the wagons and another strike back. * Nisos ordered *.
* It was as easy as pie, what worried me was Phina's reaction. It was the first time she had seen fighting, it was the first time she had seen people die, seeing Nisos and his group get their hands on killing people made her feverish *.
-I ... I must not stay here.
- Calm yourself, they are controlling the situation ...
* While Nisos had finished his cleaning we could see on the hill next to another group disembarked. They were not brigands and they were better equipped and fewer in number *.
-Who are those there? * I asked *.
-Big fish.
* At the same time a second wave of brigands arrived charging us and the group of new arrivals. Nisos sliced one of them like butter and one of its parts fell at the feet of Phina's horse who let out a cry of panic *.
-Stay calm. *I said*. Or it will be the end.
* I had spoken in the wind, hardly I had turned around when she had scampered towards the forest. Corrine had followed her with her horse to try to bring her back. Seeing this Nisos wanted to go but the leader of the new group fell on him and blocked him with a sword blow *.
-You don't move from here, Nisos the Ugly.
*The guy had armor and a helmet with a mask. He had a strange tattoo on his shoulder*.
-But who the fuck is this guy? * I asked *.
-A cousin of mine. * Nisos replied smiling *. Mini-boss I'm going to be stuck here for a while. Go finding your sister. She might be boring but if she gets caught by these guys she will get sliced in pieces. You don't want that to happen do you?
* I let out a sigh and motioned for him to win *.
-You will have a raise when I come back.
-Oh really. That is what is motivating. * He said putting his hand to his sword *. Go ahead.
* I rushed through the forest to try to catch up with this idiot, hoping that Corrine managed to reason with her. If I had a horse of death it would have been to settle in two steps three movements but I had to get used to this slowness of humans. And then shit I jumped out of my beast and started swinging from tree to tree to go faster. It was my favorite game when I was on Adje and no adult ever managed to catch me once I was high in a forest. I was following the tracks left by the horses, but suddenly there were several *.
-Were they tailed ? And damn it, I have to catch up with them quickly.
* I hadn't realized how far we got into the forest but I wasn't going to stop there. When I got to a certain level I could see that the horses had been abandoned. Those of Phina and Corrine had taken arrows. Tch, we definitely won't stop the bullshit. The group that had caught up with them were the bandits and not the mercenaries who had attacked, I don't know if I should be relieved whether they were amateurs or scared that these guys are surely morons. I jumped into the trees again to try and locate myself, once high enough I concentrated Efrat in my eyes to scan the forest *.
-Found Ya
.
* She was alone, with Corrine who was obviously trying to reassure her. But as usual she did not listen to her, tch this time, no time to follow her whims I bring her back willingly or by force. Suddenly I witnessed another event, Phina pushed Corrine to defend herself and the servant took an arrow in the chest before collapsing *.
-Corrine....
* Even on Adje I had never witnessed such a form of injustice, we can say what we want about the Killicks but it is a united people where treason and baseness of this kind are unusual. Phina had taken advantage of this moment to go deeper into the forest. The group of six guys broke up and 3 of them went looking for him. I too stopped scanning the horizon and rushed over to the spot where poor Corrine had been killed *.
-Well, this noble's daughter has no shame. To spoil such a beautiful piece. * Said one of them *.
-She was so afraid of being captured that she used it as a shield, the rich are all the same.
* The other approached Corrine and put his hand down her throat *.
-What is there she is still alive?
-Eh ? No you're delusional. It is still hot I will make it to myself.
*Garbage. I put my hand on my belt but once again I forgot the sword. Never mind, I'm going to make them with my bare hands. Standing high like an assassin, I jumped on the one who was going to rape Corrine's corpse and fell on his head. As I fell I twisted his neck and he collapsed dead while the other 2 barely had time to understand. My claws pushed and I rushed at full speed on the second by piercing his heart, then seeing that the last had a mesh dimension I cut the phemoral artery since he had already his pants down. It was my first time killing people, I had been trained all my life to do this kind of thing, but I was really disgusted by these guys. It was neither the war as Nisos said nor a business like for my uncles, it tasted strange there. It was personal. And the person responsible for it all *.
-Phina .....
* I took the time to bury the poor servant and then set off again in search of Phina without much haste. She hadn't gone very far, normal for someone who doesn't practice any sport. From where I was I saw the last 3 brigands trying to recover it. From where I was I could see her hiding between some bushes and she too could see me crouching on my tree trunk. I don't know why but when she saw me a kind of hope shone in her eyes. Was she happy to see me? Phina my dear you're not mean you're just a kid trying to be tough *.
-I will show you what we call being mean.
-Damn where is this kid?
* I gave her a sadistic smile and his gaze changed. There were a few stones that I was playing with in my hand, I saw her begging me with a look not to do it but I threw these little rocks in the bushes where she was hidden *.
-Hey what was that?
-It came from there.
* It didn't take long for the guys to retrieve her and started dragging her to the small cave next door. You should have seen her moan with teary eyes as I gave her that satisfied smile *.
-Let me go. Let go of me garbage bunch. Kind of subhuman.
-She got a forked tongue, this girl. * He said *.
* She clawed at her attacker who replied with a monumental slap. I had the impression of being or theater where the antagonist of the play was finally receiving the sentence that he deserve. I was almost going to laugh but I had to not grill it. It is because she pointed the finger at my direction *.
-Oh the bitch.
* The guy turned and stared in my direction but I was quick to hide *.
-What is nobody there ?! You're so freaked out that you see ghosts.
-No ... He ... He was there.
-Stop making fun of us little kid.
* He slapped her and she fell to the ground *.
-Well, do you want to have a little fun?
-Hey but she's a kid.
-I don't care I haven't seen a woman for a week because of this ambush, I must free myself.
-And then the servant slammed I don't do with corpses myself.
-No no no ... don't Come closeeeer * you shouted again *.
* They began by removing that expensive fur coat that kept her warm. The first pulled down his pants and locked her against the rock face but she kept struggling despite the blows and slaps. Damn she had the bitch niac. Suddenly blood squirted on his face. The bandits collapsed one after the other around the still feverish girl to let appear a shadow even more threatening. That shadow was me, had just saved her miserable life. At first shocked by what she had just seen, she came to her senses again *.
-It ... It's not too early. What took you so long?
* I didn't answer her and just gave her that creepy and threatening look *.
-Where are you looking at me like that? * She said taking a step back *. Already how could a kid like you kill so many adults on his own? You really are a monster.
* My cold gaze gave way to a look of pity *.
-Phina Here you are the monster.
* She froze when she heard this. At first she didn't move, then she rushed at me to slap me. I stopped her and slapped her that knocked her against the wall. Yes I hit harder than an adult and damn it was enjoyable *.
-I saw what you did to Corrine, it was horrible. The poor girl would always bend over backwards to meet even your most sordid demands. I don't know how she put up with you one thing is about her she seemed to like you very much for enduring such torture. But you saw it only as a waste that you could throw away as you see fit. A real little Tyrant.
-And then she had that ...
-Phina. * I say interrupting her *. What do you think Philotas will think ... When he learns that his daughter is a murderer.
* Her eyes widened in surprise. Suddenly she seized by the arms and began to implore my grace *.
-No ... You ... You won't dare. You say you were there, you saw it, she threw herself on the arrow. Yes she threw herself on it to protect me. Note it looks like her. She is always helpful Corrine.
* She raised her head and her gaze met mine, she could see with what disgust I looked at her *.
-Phina. You are really horrible.
* She suddenly got scared and went to curl up at the bottom of the cave all trembling *.
-No ... No, I didn't kill her. I didn't kill her, anyone, anyone ... Please help me. Dad mom...
* She burst into tears it was really pathetic. For my part I was really fed up with her so I turned my back on her and was about to leave the cave, strangely she got up and hugged me with all her strength *.
-Please ... please do not leave me. Do not leave me alone. If you leave me here I'll die.
* She is Definitely cheeky. I lowered her hands and faced her, I saw her hopeful gaze but I told her clearly *.
-Phina .... I don't give a fuck.
* Her gaze suddenly fell into despair and I leaped out of the cave into the air leaving this problem magnet behind me *.
*To be continued*
