A Wandering Ronin A Weird Technique
“Boss, they can't pay the debt. So I brought valuable collateral,” said the tall, skinny man as he lowered Ellie until she fell.His fat boss wore a neat white coat, a cigar that was always tucked to his lips, and a bald head looked intently at Ellie. But Ellie wasn't afraid. He even glared back at the boss.“Hey girl, it's not good to stare intently at someone who lends to your parents. I'm Bossman," said Bossman.Ellie didn't answer. She kept her gaze fixed on Bossman."Kid, be polite with Bossman," said the tall, skinny man.“Already let it go, Salino. She won't harm us," said Bossman."Why are poor people always troublesome?" Salino then spit out.Now Ellie was staring intently at Salino."Hey kid, don't look at me like that. You know that look of yours is disgusting.""And your behavior is just as disgusting," Ellie replied.Salino was furious. He picked up Ellie and was about to hit her."Salino!" called Bossman, “Stop it. Hitting children is a despicable act."Salino then put E
A Wandering Ronin Tears
Salino and Berna looked at each other with their respective gaze expressions. Berna's gaze was sharp. While Salino's gaze was relaxed but he remained alert. Because this is the first time Salino is fighting an opponent who uses a strange power.“Damn boy. Where did you learn that move from?” asked Salino in his heart."It doesn't matter where I learned this knowledge from," said Berna as if he knew what Salino was thinking.Salino just laughed.Meanwhile Zaru who was peeking behind the outer wall of the room could only see. But he also remained vigilant in case Bossman's men came from behind."Hey kid, I have a weapon," said Salino as he drew a sword from behind his back.The sword was small, sharp, flat, and the same length as Salino's hand. He then twirled the sword with his right hand. Salino then ran while attacking by thrusting the sword forward. Berna then put his palms together so that the floor in front of his was lifted up and formed like a wall that made Salino's sword strik
A Wandering Ronin A Deal
Berna's anger overflowed. His blood boiled when he saw Ellie being dropped by Salino. An angry, sad expression laced with tears graced his face as he ran to catch Ellie. When he caught Ellie and put her on his lap while kneeling, Berna looked at Ellie's face while crying. The pink sweater that Berna had given him was now mixed with blood.“Ellie,” said Berna.“Be…Berna…,” Ellie raised her right hand to hold Berna's cheek.Berna then grasped Ellie's right hand with her left."Ellie, hang on!"“Be… berna… I…,” Ellie didn't continue. Instead, she smiled at Berna with half-closed eyes as if resigned to what had happened to him.“I'll heal you Ellie,” Berna then put her left hand on Ellie's injured chest.Instantly his left palm emitted light. But Ellie's injuries were so severe that the healing process had to take a lot longer. What's more, Ellie kept bleeding. Ellie's right hand then held Berna's left hand which was treating the wound on her chest. She gripped Berna's left hand as best h
A Wandering Ronin Blind
Behind the wall, Zaru could vaguely see someone in the dark walking closer while holding another person with both hands. When getting closer and the light from outside, Zaru's eyes suddenly bulged. Because he saw the figure was Berna who was walking closer while holding Ellie with both hands."Berna, what happen to Ellie?" asked Zaru as Berna stopped in front of him with his head down.Berna did not answer. He laid the corpse of Ellie whose chest was full of blood on the floor. Zaru immediately knelt down while crying."Elie, wake up!" said Zaru while crying.Zaru then looked at Berna and asked, “What happened?”"I'm sorry," replied Berna.Zaru stood up and grabbed Berna by the collar. He glared with an angry face and was bewildered by what had happened to Ellie."Damn it! What happened?" Berna asked once more."That tall, thin man killed Ellie.""Then where is he?""I killed him,"Zaru's eyes aren't bulging anymore. He then released his grip on her hand."I've also killed Bossman," B
A Wandering Ronin Goodbye
Berna tried to crawl into a tree. Then he leaned his back against the tree and wrapped his legs with cloth. He was sweating profusely when he had to endure the pain.“Resurrecting the dead has enormous consequences. I could have been swallowed earlier as a sacrifice," said Berna.Berna calmed herself. Because he understands when he's in a panic, he can't think straight. After feeling calmer, Berna reopened the old book and reread the taboos about alchemists. One of them, of course, is resurrecting the dead. There is a missing part of the writing. Berna then put his fingertip on the missing piece of writing. Slowly a writing appeared that made Berna's eyes not blink."To resurrect the dead, an equal exchange is needed," Berna read.Now, Berna understood that in order to resurrect Ellie, he would have to sacrifice his life. That was why both of his legs were missing because he didn't meet any of the conditions. He also said he was stupid. This is because all this time he has carried
A Wandering Ronin Bonfire
Ran started his journey to the west again. The border between Mondu Kingdom and Ramil is still a long way off. The path he walked was mostly meadows and he occasionally climbed hills. When night fell, Ran rested on the hill and spread out the cloth that made the mattress. Before going to bed, he read the old book for a while. At first, Ran did not understand what was written in the old book. Especially regarding symbols like magic. But the more he read it, Ran slowly understood. The symbols represent specific materials, elements, or substances.“It seems that this book is intended for smart people. I can memorize all of its contents. But the point of this book I'm still biased. Moreover, these confusing symbols," said Ran as he closed the book and then he fell asleep.The next morning, Ran was awakened by the sun. He hurried back walking west. Arriving at a river, Ran cleaned up and ate fruit from the rest of the supplies from Toroto village. Then he saw the desert from a distance.
A Wandering Ronin The Bandits
Morning is approaching. Ran's body had recovered after walking for three days. After he packed up his things, Ran again walked south. In his heart, he always hoped that after coming out of this forest, he would find a village or a settlement. But before he left the forest, Ran heard something. He then stopped and lowered his head while holding a cap made of woven bamboo.“Are they bandits?” Ran asked in his heart.There was the sound of feet jumping from one branch to another among the towering trees. The branches of this tree are big, so they are strong enough to make a foothold. As time went on, the sound of jumping feet became more and more clear. Not long after, shot a rather fat man with a stick from behind. But Ran noticed it. So he turned around to the right as he drew his sword and the man with the stick flew far away rolling on the ground and ended up on a mound of gravel."I don't want any trouble with you guys. So let me pass," said Ran.The bandits just laughed. Among the
A Wandering Ronin The Hell Path
Ran walked closer to Shukar. Of course, Shukar was scared even though he had praised Ran for his sword skills. Shukar's legs trembled and he turned and walked slowly so as not to be caught. But suddenly Ran appeared beside him, causing Shukar to scream in fear and fall to the ground."You're a member of those bandits?" asked Ran who noticed Shukar's all-black clothes.“Please don't kill me.” Shukar put his hands together.Ran narrowed his meta and then he walked away leaving Shukar. But Shukar instead followed behind him stealthily. But of course, Ran knew he was being followed by the fifteen-year-old boy."Why did you follow me?" Ran looked back.Shukar was surprised he hid behind a tree then replied "I was just amazed at your prowess in fighting earlier."Ran walks back and ignores Shukar. But when he had walked for about ten minutes, Ran stopped."Can you not follow me?" Ran asked as he turned his head and looked at a tree where Shukar was hiding behind a tree."I don't know where
