(When the star falls everything will fall apart.)
Night in Fiore border.
Inside a small cabin, a little girl has both hands together praying for the goddess of light. While in the middle of prayer, she stops… Something in front of her caught her attention.
“Woah… Hey, mommy what was that?”
Asked the little girl.
“I don’t know a bad omen though… We should continue praying.”
“Mmm…”
“Mommy, what is that noise?”
“?!”
The mother was astonished at what she saw. Right beside their house thousand of knights passed by. Led by a knight riding a pure white horse and his armor shiny as a silver coin.
The mother turned her glance to the giant flags.
“That flag! The Knights of White wings! Why is the holy church army here?”
The knight continues their journey and ignores the mother and child.
“Oh, Oh, they saw us first. What a beautiful image, a mother and a child on a pilgrimage. I bed
“There! There is the place where I live.” “It's kinda run down…” After meeting the little girl I asked her if there’s a town where I can spend the night on. I don’t want to sleep in the deep forest. At the same time, I would like to feel a comfortable bed. When I step foot in the small town. I notice how silent it was. The there gaze was a mix of fear and bloodlust. I understand the reason behind their gaze. After Fiore become part demon territory. Residents felt constant anxiety about their lives. Even they placed a warding talisman to chase off monsters. A supreme demon can still attack them at night. “Don’t think about their stares mister swordsman… Knight happened to have a bad reputation. Most of the knights are now serving the demon king army.” They change the sides. It's reasonable to be friends with strong ones than weak ones. “If that’s the case, then I don’t have any place to stay in this town.” “True, but I can explain to them… I might be able to explain that you’re
While on our way.“Could you tell me about you’re friend witch?”“She’s very nice… She always makes sweets snacks and plays with me. She has a huge collection of dolls in her home.”A place full of sweets and dolls must be a paradise in little girls' eyes.Everyone is afraid of witches, that’s common sense. I was the same ten years ago.Witches are mostly known for doing shady acts. Ist understandable why people point fingers at her about the weird things happening to their town.After meeting the witch in the dungeon and Elaina. My perspective about witches changes.Speaking about the witch of the dungeon. The witch after we get out was never seen outside. Elaina said that she already perished. She is downcast during that time.Still, this witch I’m approaching is different from Elaina. Witches are naturally evil. They are called witches because they practice dark magic.
When I noticed her. I immediately brush her arms around me and said:“This is not a game… My journey is extremely dangerous. I can’t have you with my journey.”“I know it's dangerous… I know that… I know that heroes always have the most dangerous job. But still, I wanted to come along with you. I don’t want to return to my town. Everyone there I hate them. My father when he doesn’t have money is selling my body to his friends. My mother is a weak-willed woman and can’t stand up for her daughter. That’s why I always go to the forest with the witch. Now that she is gone. There is no place for me to go and hide. There is no place for me.”Jelian said.Turning my glance to a direction where I ran off. I noticed that the knights of white wings are already closing. At the same time, I can’t let this girl go back to that town. Because her eyes are crying for help.I can&rsquo
On his palm, a huge red magic circle appeared. At its center, the embers of flame are about to emerge. With a magic circle that huge. The flame is about to lunch might be able to engulf this area with flames. The two women are injured but still, they are capable of dodging this danger. But the girl hiding behind the bushes will be burned. “Burn to hell!” “That’s my line!” I shouted and kick the ground to his position. Further increasing my speed with Grand Chariot. I pushed his elbow upward changing the trajectory of his magic. The huge flames burst up above the sky. The strong light from his flame made the whole area in darkness for a brief moment. On the ground, a sharp spear made of rock emerges attempting to pierce through Grand Chariot. “Earth spike!” The spear made of rock snapped out the moment it strike my armor. That was a great strategy but with grand chariot it's useless. Grand chariot can’t be destro
Because of the old merchant’s help. We’re able to reach Eden city earlier than we expected. I offered money to the old man as our payment, but he refuse to accept it from me and instead thank me again for saving his life before. Honestly, I didn’t think much about it anymore. But doing good things will pay off, unexpectedly.Despite that, I still think that he's a very good man.The old merchant and I separated our ways in the entrance gate. Him going inside the city will still take a long time because of inspection. The knights inspected the carriage and the sand dragon before they can enter Eden city.As we step foot together with Jelian and Yunis. Jelian’s eyes widen and a big smile emerges on her face.“What is this place? The house is so colorful. Flowers are everywhere and the air is so fresh. Completely different from the small town where I was born.”“This is the city of paradise… Eden city.
Early eight in the morning, I already prepared and fix myself. I wear normal clothes I never usually use. I put my sword on my storage box and decided to just bring a small knife just in case a terrible thing happened.I was standing in the central park in front of the water fountain.It's hard to say this but in 22 years of living in this world. I never had a date in my entire life. It's true, Yunis and I become together, but because of the busy schedule of knights. We’re unable to go out.This date is for the first time in my entire life.I read a few novels and there is a chapter about dating, but I don’t really get it. Maybe the reason for that is my lacking any meaningful romantic experience.Unconscious, I turned my head to the water fountain, seeing my reflection. I fix my hair and make a forced smile.My smile is very awkward and I don’t think I can make a bright smile like everyone else.“What’s
Dia and I approached the troubled little girl on the streets. At first, she made a smile thinking that the girl who came to her was the one she’s looking for, but it was immediately changed to a sad expression finding out that she is not. The girl looks at us with hesitation. She stay silent and averted her eye’s away from us.Even though she gave us such cold greet. I can understand it, talking to random strangers is not good especially if you’re just a little kid. This girl does know what she will do to protect herself.Dia crouched down and the girl look on her face.“I’m sorry I’m not who you were looking for. So, what’s the matter? Aren’t your mom and dad with you?”The girl after being asked made a watery eye and started shedding tears.“Um… uh… Don’t cry… I won’t do anything to you, all right?”Dia said with a troubled tone. She wanted t
Two months after Retto left Eden city for his fresh start. The story will shift toward the other two travelers, searching for the mystery of the past. An ashen-haired witch and the immortal.The sky is clear and the wind breeze felt so nice. Together with the wind the tree dances and the birds sing around. In the trail road leading to the next town, a carriage can be seen. Pulled by a dragon and coached by Glenn. Inside the carriage happily reading her new book is Elaina.Their life is mundane this past day. The reason for that is the Liana kingdom they are currently in is never in war and friends with every nation, except the Foire kingdom and demon king territory. The continent is too far off on the map. The demon king going to this kingdom will be a hard task to complete.“Hey, Glenn this place is very peaceful right?”“Yeah, it is very peaceful and silent. The scenery around is also relaxing… I guess we are near to the place I
