The confusion grew as the three tried different ways to know what is up with this map,“Didn’t the elder tell you something on how to read the map that is totally empty?” Kendrick asked.“N-No. The elder just told us that someone needs to inherit the map once he dies, or no one claims it to be theirs. Nothing more, nothing else.” Johnny replied.As they were scouring the chest itself, Erika was the one who noticed the paper attached to the literal back of the map itself. Kendrick slapped Johnny’s head slightly, as the paper was too obvious, and the fact that he did see it means that he panicked too much. Erika then slapped Kendrick too as he also was oblivious about the paper, until she pointed it out. Johnny then gently removed the paper that was folded. He unfolded the paper and on it was a short letter,“Read it out loud. Maybe it is from the elder.” Kendrick says.Johnny nodded. He looked at the letter, and he just literally stared at it as he constantly narrows his eyes like he w
The three woke up the next morning at exactly 10 in the morning. They have been up until 4 in the morning as they were too entertained by their own stories. Kendrick went out to hunt some game first, while Erika and Johnny were left in the camp and was tidying things up. They would still spend a few days here since Char is literally on the ground and was just lying down and resting, which means that until Char stands up again, they would have to stay in this camp longer. And besides, they are still figuring it out on where they would go after this. The letter did not say any specific location or anything, it just told them that to explore and find that somebody who will meet the requirement of the enchantment. And that is going to be next to impossible, as this world is just messed up, and it would be very difficult to find that person. But they all must try. Kendrick, who is now hunting some game to eat the whole day, is now thinking his next steps after this accidental adventure. He
After hours of travel, Eleanor and the others have finally reached the supposed town. It was another surprise for the person who lives within the walls. This town also has walls, but smaller compared to the ones at the city. The gates opened and they all entered. People with weapons suddenly appeared in front of them as they are now reassuring if there is no threat that will get in. The gates were lowered once everyone was inside, and then all of them went down their horses and went to town,“This town is as big as a city. But since we are living like in the medieval times, we call it a town. The town’s name is Braver, named after the bravest warrior that founded this town who now has a population of approximately at least 400 thousand people.” Anna explained as she then continued to tell Eleanor what she is going to ask like she is reading her mind or something.It turns out that this town has classes in society. And they also have a military force just like the sword community insid
After the meeting, Eleanor was just getting a free tour from Anna while her other men rests for the remainder of the day. Anna introduced Elle to everyone, but she did not have an answer to the questions who ask about Elle’s citizenship, but luckily, there were no doubts, and everyone just welcomed Elle without any doubts nor hesitation. Elle tried a variety of foods which she has never saw or tasted inside the walls. Everything was just incredible, and it was if this town is the least fortified compared to the city, they are confident about everything. And Elle was just glad and so enjoyed that she is here, that she literally forgot all about her mission to scout the southeast and give a report to the city in a month. And when night struck, Anna and Elle went into a bar where they had a drink or two to ease their bodies and feel relaxed even for a few hours. Because a week would pass quickly, and everything would be stressful again. The two finished drinking at exactly 1 in the morni
Living as a scavenger, it wasn’t an easy life. Scavengers are greedy people, they were once belonged in a colony or town, but they have defected since their desires cannot be supplemented by the leadership and the colony itself. So, instead of being pathetic, scavengers became what they are. They scavenge ruined cities, buildings and almost everything they came across to. At one point, the scavengers became bigger and bigger, that the chief have decided to decrease the mouths to feed to survive and have their desires be grabbed by them again. That is why Janella was left in a demons’ nest. It was a 12 midnight the day before yesterday, she was sleeping in a tent with her family, and then, her parents suddenly woke her up as a meeting is being held at the center to discuss something. A man with gray hair was standing on a platform and began announcing it to the people,“Our group has now 450 members, our supplies are getting lesser, and a lot are now starving. So, I will handpick the p
The next morning, Elle was wakened up by the mother of Anna to have breakfast. Elle stood up and fixed herself and rinsed her face before eating. She has now hangover anymore, because after seeing Anna last night bawling her eyes like that, all the drunkenness has disappeared, and now, she is completely sober and is just hungry. She sat on the chair around the table to eat their breakfast. Jackson was in his room, refusing to go out, so, the father just brought him some eggs and bacon. Anna on the other hand has gone out to train at the training central as she doesn’t want to waste time since she also wants to become the lead scout of this town. After eating breakfast, Elle took a quick shower and she changed into her clothes,“Where is the training central? I want to workout a little also.” Elle asked.“Oh, once you leave the house go left and then walk straight, you will find yourself in a crossroad and then you will take a right and just go straight, you will find it there.” Smiled
As they continue to venture into the mist, the feeling of creepiness grew. Kendrick took back the reins as it is too dangerous to let Johnny be out there. Not that he distrusts him, it is just that Kendrick has a bad feeling about this, and he needs to be prepared for what’s to come. He has Amaterasu out a little so that he will not have any problems on pulling her out once a battle begins. The surroundings were just like the woods they were in when they met the warlord. And Kendrick’s instinct is telling him to turn back, which they can’t do as they need to go through this place to reach their destination.Meanwhile, after hours of nonstop travel, Michaela and Sylvester has now reached the walls. Horns has been blown as the gates are being slowly raised as they enter under it. As they enter, they were welcomed with lines of swordsmen and women all lined up, raising their swords and the two rode under it. Some are saluting as it was a job well done for the new Slayers of the city. The
The 4 decided to set up camp so that they could rest, although it is totally unsafe due to the feeling this forest is giving them, but they still must rest, and Char needs to rest also. So, Kendrick starts a fire and started to cook. Luckily, Janella was a cook at their group, so, she was the one handling the cooking for now on, while Kendrick guards them. After cooking, they all ate the deer soup Janella cooked,“Okay, here’s what we are going to do. You three go and sleep together, and here,” Kendrick then tied a small string onto their wrists “If anyone gets taken, we will know where you are. I hope that we will not be in trouble, but based on the surroundings, we can’t be too sure. Now, I will take the watch all night you three go to sleep.” Kendrick added as he then took out Amaterasu.“I volunteer to stand watch. I grew as a scavenger and trained myself for years, I think I’m up for the job.” Janella says as she then stood beside Kendrick.She then tried to borrow Kendrick’s oth
