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
This revelation has shocked everyone heavily, and especially, disturbed. The fact that the government has left behind thousands or maybe millions of people outside the walls is something to be alarmed about. Sevie then told the day she met those people. They were kind, not hostile or some sort. They welcomed them as their own, and she didn’t really want to leave, but she still has a mission and she just promised them that she will come back someday. It will be a long time before they could meet up again since she is to be relocated obviously in their next mission, but she promised that she will come back and visit them. So, that is why she came up with this hypothesis.“Kendrick and Eleanor must have met the said colonies out there and is doing something that needs to be hidden. As far as I am concerned, the two of them are okay, but it still depends on the situation they really are in, since being out there, everything becomes unpredictable.” Sevie pointed out.Everyone was just sile
Their fight continued with both of them not allowing each other to be pushed around. Elle and the Chief are trying their best to not be on the defensive corner as it would mean bad news, especially against a strong opponent. Hence, them exchanging blows that cannot even be seen by normal eyes of the crowd. Gasp after gasp can be heard, and the people around consider themselves as lucky to see this kind of fight. They have never seen the chief be serious like that before. They saw him being serious about his duties as the chief, but never did they ever saw him get serious in battle. Because in every duel he is invited to and be challenged, he treats the duel as if it was just a normal sparring match that will teach his men. But right now, this is the first time they are seeing him fighting for the win and this focused. They are also surprised by the fact that Elle is able to keep up with the chief’s incredible speed, without knowing that she has been through worse. The last war, she fo
No one dared to stop the fight, even though the two are literally slowly killing each other by going all-out that is only supposed to be used against demons out there. However, Andrei and Elle are both determined to win this duel no matter what. Elle is fighting for her life and her pride as a swordswoman. While Andrei was fighting for the honor and somewhat simple vengeance for the colony outside the walls. They won’t give up, and Anna was up there on one of the sparring center’s roofs, trying to break the fight. She was screaming on the top of her lungs, but the two are not hearing a thing, other than the sound that their swords make when they collide. Andrei and Elle are so focused that they can’t even hear their surroundings properly. The only thing they can hear is their breathing, their footsteps and then the clashes of their swords. That’s how concentrated they are, because they know that if they lose focus all of a sudden, then their death will be certain. Elle then swung her s
The next day, Kendrick is now the one sleeping for a bit, while the others are standing guard. The guy has been fighting all night, and Janella was just standing there as she can’t see where the enemies are coming from, that is why Kendrick shouldered the responsibility of defending them with all he has. And the exhaustion from last night is evident right now as he is fast asleep and is snoring loudly. However, Janella did learn something last night. She learned that she made the right choice on tagging along Kendrick, as this guy is insanely strong and powerful. He can sense something that cannot even be sensed by her, even though she lived to have to be able to sense anything as they live in a harsh environment. But last night was different. She was having difficulties, and she couldn’t even see the eyes of their enemies. And then there’s Kendrick, swiftly killing the demons as if the surroundings are not misty and dark, and it was if there were no obstacles. That’s how strong he is
Once the battle was over, Anna has lost sight of her sister which she thought would just hide behind a big rock or something. However, knowing that Erika has the worse sense of direction, Anna became paranoid and started to run all over the place looking for her. Her scout mates are now getting confused, as they are not sure why Anna is shouting Erika’s name when it is impossible for that girl to be here. But realization struck them, and they started to help Anna looking for Erika that is nowhere to be found. They rode on their horses and started to scout the area multiple times in groups, but their efforts were just useless. Anna dropped on the ground on her knees as she now regrets on telling Erika to run away. She just realized that by doing that action, she just put her sister in much grave danger than it was earlier. Because out here in the open without proper training nor weapon, you are to be considered as dead meat already,“You guys go ahead! I’m going to continue looking for
