The arena was as quiet as a graveyard after what happened on the stage a few minutes ago.George was the most surprised out of all of them. His plan to get rid of his son's killer was foiled within a twinkle of an eye. “Why is he only getting farther ahead of me? I have trained hard but I'm still not close.”. Harry thought staring at Faul who stood like nothing else mattered. Nobody knew how the knight was killed, all they know is that the knight stabbed Faul and the next second he was headless. George was speechless but when an opportunity calls he must cease it. He turned to sir Donald and raised the issue of killing a knight intentionally. "Sir Donald, you saw that right? The boy killed a silver knight. He must be disqualified and punished!" George said furiously to Sir Donald. "Sir George, we were all here but I don't think we saw the boy kill the knight" Said Sir Wilfred. "What do you mean? We all saw what he did against the mage! Who knows if the boy is a mage hiding his p
The event at the arena has been the talk of many individuals both in the camp and outside the camp. Other candidates are now looking at Faul like he is a monster. The candidates were discussing amongst themselves the event that took place, how they fought and how well they did but one individual was just staring at Faul wondering what sort of a being he is. "Look Faul, you know Harry has been looking at you for a long time now. It looks like you have a new lover." Phil teased faul Harry walked over to Faul and sat beside him placing his sword right between him and Faul. "Faul I know we have our differences but we can leave it all behind us," Harry said waiting to hear Faul's reply. "I have no issue with anyone who doesn't have anything against me.", Faul replied with a straight face. "So we are friends then?”. Harry asked stretching out his hand for a handshake. Faul looked at the stretched hand for some time before shaking it. "Yeah... Friends then”.", Faul replied. The sudd
The next few days has been uneventful, everyone was busy preparing to head out on their journey to the Kaar knight school located at the western border of the red death territory. The knight school is in the middle of Alora, a city as large as the capital city of Kaar. "Listen up everyone, the road is not safe. There are always a series of attacks from the infected while traveling from any city to Alora. So, brace yourselves and be ready for a fight which can happen anytime because the journey will take us seven days." sir Donald instructed the teenagers. There were only about seven of them who passed the trial. "Faul. you know I'm scared, right? I have never seen an infected before" Phil whispered leaning closer to him. "We have four Sapphire-level knights, what are you scared of? Get your luggage let's head out everyone is leaving", Faul replied patting Phil on the shoulder. The seven teenage boys boarded the carriage along with Sapphire knights. Everyone was tired because th
The next day everyone was awakened by the sound of a loud metal clanging. They all woke up and were ready to embark on their journey back to Alora. “Gather the tent and your weapons and prepare to move out", Wilfred instructed the teenage boys. Everyone gathered their belongings and got back into the carriage and left the area. "We are the warriors of the great kingdom. We fight in the Frontline. We fear no demon We fear no man. We conquer every war!........" The boys were chanting merrily as they were enjoying the thrill of the journey. The day's journey has been very smooth. The road was straight with no obstruction. Until.....Neigh..... The horses came to an abrupt stop. “Woohoo! Hooooold!" Donald shouted seeing that the road ahead was covered with thick fog. “What is that?" "Is it always like this" "Are you sure we are not being attacked by the red death" "What! Red death?” "Please let it not be" The teenage boys were saying different things. Some are so scared tha
The seven wolves encircled Faul, they are ready to pounce on him anytime. Faul sheathed his sword because he has never been good at using swords. His body started changing, his fingernails elongated into claws, the scales on his back started spreading throughout his entire body, his skin started glowing, his two long crystal-like fangs grew and the next thing he started feeling something growing out from the lower part of his back. "Oh... Don't tell me now I have a tail too" Faul thought and got on his fours. Roaaaaar... "What is that?" "We are all going to die here" " Don't say that we have four Sapphire knights with us." The roar scared the teenage boys and cold sweat drenched their whole being. The Knights rushed to where the roar came from but because the fog is too thick, they couldn't see what made that roar. The seven infected wolves rushed toward Faul. One leaped in the air aiming for Faul's throat. Faul dodged the wolf and kicked the one that came for his leg. One o
Faul's collapsed body was lifted by sir Wilfred as they started heading back to the carriage. George kept staring at his weak body Fearing that if he can't manage to get rid of him that he might prove difficult to deal with in the future. The four knights all have one thing or the other going through their heads about Faul. "The prophecy said a boy from Karaza will defeat the red death. Is this boy from Karaza? I will have to find out when he awakes.” Donald thought staring at Faul's weak body. "Take care of this boy with care". Wilfred said to the teenage boys in the carriage. dropping Faul inside. "Faul!... What happened to him? He's going to be ok right ?", Phil asked lifting Faul's head from the carriage floor. "He's fine, just look after him until he awakes". Wilfred said as he left to climb his horse. They continued their journey and no one mentioned what happened, everyone was just silent lost in their thought until Wilfred broke the silence. "He's a brave boy, braver
Faul fell from the mirror dimension and landed in the jungle he grew up in. He kept on thinking about why he appeared there. He decided to look around to know if he could find any clue on why he was there. He wandered the jungle and found nothing. He was alone in the entire jungle. To him, he has spent only a few hours in that dream but in the outside world, he has been out cold for three days and everyone was worried if he will ever wake up. "I guess I should try to head into the city to know if I can find anything.” Faul thought as he started running into the city. When he arrived at the first city he saw. He found out there was no one. The entire city was deserted, houses destroyed. and everything was no more. "What's the meaning of all this? Where has everyone gone to?”. Faul wondered strolling down the street of the city. After strolling the city for hours and not finding anything, he decided to head to other cities. With his speed traveling between cities is not a big dea
The force pulled Faul away from the dream world. During his struggle with the force. his body was also showing some signs of struggle in the outside world. Everyone gathered around his body because there was a sudden faint yellow and red glow around his body. "Oh... The aura of a master knight. How?”. the four knights said at the same time. The master knights are known as the diamond-level knights. They are known as true knights because they mastered qi to the highest level that mixing the Qi aura with blood aura to unleash the greatest aura ever seen. They have unlocked the true power that can fight the dragons, and wipe out a whole nation single-handedly. The sudden appearance of the aura made the knights shiver. Faul struggled all he could against the force but the force won and pulled him out of the dream world. On the outside world. he opened his eyes slowly only to find many pairs of eyes staring right at him. "Faul you are awake! You scared me. brother. I don't know what
