2024-10-29 19:42:56After the unsettling incident that unfolded the previous night, Eran found himself unable to attain a peaceful slumber, besieged by a disconcerting sensation that relentlessly gnawed at his thoughts. Notwithstanding this discomfort, his heart continued its frenzied rhythm, besieged by a relentless sense of vexation that surged through his consciousness like a bolt of lightning. In a contemplative soliloquy, he wondered aloud, "Could Taneaya be so inebriated that she remains oblivious to the events that transpired last night?" Such introspection was accompanied by a profound sense of gratitude that Taneaya appeared blissfully unaware of the nocturnal escapades, yet an overarching disquietude persisted within him.
On the morrow, as the trio readied themselves for the continuation of their journey towards Hollowfield Village, Eran made a valiant effort to maintain an appearance of normalcy in Taneaya's presence, despite the palpable tension that hung in the air. While perched atop

The Blade Dance Take it easy
As they stealthily navigated their way through the village beneath the shroud of the night, their movements were marked by a remarkable silence. Guided by Kain's seasoned leadership, they skillfully pinpointed the covert whereabouts of the cult's clandestine headquarters, meticulously concealed amidst the dense foliage of trees and the rugged embrace of coastal cliffs.A short while later, amidst the heart of the sylvan expanse adjacent to the village, they stumbled upon an inconspicuous cave, their collective intuition resonating with the conviction that this was indeed the elusive sanctuary they sought. With a keen sense of vigilance, both Kain and Eran strategically concealed themselves amidst the looming sentinels of the arboreal realm.Their keen eyes discerned a contingent of sentinels stationed outside the cave's entrance, their imposing presence indicative of the ominous aura that enveloped the place."Enough for now, Eran," Kain quietly asserted, the tone of his voice resonat
The Blade Dance In the Cave
With utmost caution, they advanced towards the hidden lair of the subterranean cult. Their footfalls, gentle as whispers, betrayed no hint of their presence as they glided past the vigilant sentinels stationed along the periphery.Halting momentarily amidst the concealing embrace of the dense foliage, they observed five guards stationed at the entrance to the cavern. Kain surreptitiously signaled Eran to lead the way, and he proceeded with the stealth of a shadow, his movements soundless as he traversed the grassy terrain. Upon nearing their adversaries, Eran sprang forth with celerity, vanishing into obscurity with nary a sound.Without delay, Eran beat the five guards, swiftly and undetected. Then the three of them moved their bodies in the grass, ensuring that their presence remained imperceptible to any prying eyes.They infiltrated the cave's entrance, resembling a colossal maw in the rocky visage, and embarked upon a descent into the abyssal, lightless passage.

The Blade Dance So Close
Taneaya was shocked when she heard the boom, she turned her head to see the source of the sound. Gyro was standing with his mace that he had just smashed into the metal cell."Well...well...it looks like I'm disturbing your activities," Gyro said, walking over to Taneaya."You guys run out of this place, there are no guards so you can run safely," Taneaya said to the group of girls she freed."Thank you, ma'am," said one of the girls, then they ran away from her."You're very beautiful miss, you're the best of the bunch of girls I've ever seen, come here you will be satisfied every day," said Gyro when he was in front of Taneaya.Taneaya looked furious, she glanced at the front right side, there were two more girls still in prison."How about it pretty lady, do you accept my offer," Gyro said while sticking out his tongue."You old pervert!" shouted Taneaya as she darted towards Gyro.Taneaya attacked relentlessly with her two swords left and right.

"The weapon is very disturbing," he muttered, then glanced at Kain who was standing tall next to him."That's why I've been dodging," Kain replied firmly, holding his hammer tightly. He knew that this battle would be a difficult test for both of them.The bars laughed coldly, "You're just a bunch of confident mercenaries. You'll both die along with this village!" he said as he swung his long chain weapon deftly.Eran and Kain moved, coordinating with each other to attack the bandit leader from all directions.

She arched her sword with lightning speed, trying to cut through Barpus' long chains. However, the agile Barpus managed to dodge in the blink of an eye and turned quickly to face Taneaya.Eran began to launch his attacks, trying to see through Barpus' small openings.

They received a very important assignment from King Berillan to carry out a secret mission.The mission they received was to investigate the source of a mysterious disease that had recently spread in several parts of the kingdom.

The Blade Dance Okren Forest
Gorstag swore. "This forest makes my head float!" He covered his nose with a cloth. "The air is so humid, I don't like it!"Uldor glanced at Gorstag. "Keep your voice down! Our voices can be heard!" Uldor admonished in a whisper."That's right, this forest is very humid, there's a lot of moss growing on the ground and rocks," explained Theo, who walked ahead. "And I read in a book that Okren Forest used to be a hiding place for demons when they were expelled from the sky," Theo added.Theo, Uldor, and Gorstag walked slowly through the dense Okren forest. The sunlight grew dimmer as the towering trees covered the sky."Then you believe those obscure myths made up by the ancients?" asked Gorstag."Hmm...I believe everything written in the book because it was all based on previous people's experiences and stories," Theo replied."So you believe Iblis exist?" asked Gorstag again. Uldor just listened to the conversation between his tw

Gorstag was looking increasingly angry and frustrated as his previous attacks were fruitless. Even more embarrassing, all the attacks using his two axes were successfully parried by the two hammers used by Kain."Damn it! Damn it! Damn you, shorty!" shouted Gorstag very loudly, letting his frustration explode.Kain could not help but laugh, mocking his opponent. "Hahaha... Alright, Gorstag. I'll end this now, I think I'm starting to sweat."Gorstag who was provoked by Kain's taunt responded with his signature move. He took one step back, then with a steady stride, he leaped towards Kain, his two axes aiming at Kain as if to split him in two."You're crazy, Gorstag! Do you want to kill me?" Kain grumbled, trying to maintain his composure amidst the escalating situation.However, as Gorstag got closer to Kain, Kain quickly dodged the attack with an agile movement to the left. Gorstag's axe missed spectacularly, and as the axe was about to land on the ground, Kain immediately slammed bot

Provoke
"Slow down, Gorstag," Kain said, trying to advise his opponent. "Watch your step. It's too stiff!" Kain was trying to guide Gorstag, albeit in the context of a training battle.Gorstag only responded with a loud screech, still pressing Kain with his two axes. His attacks were hard and merciless, creating tremendous pressure on Kain.Kain, however, had his strategy. He continued to evade Gorstag's attacks with no intention of counterattacking. For him, this fight was about testing endurance and agility.Gorstag tried to provoke Kain with his words. "You're just like a rabbit, Kain. Are you afraid to attack me?" he tried to interrupt Kain's concentration, but Kain responded with a casual and dismissive tone.Kain replied in a dismissive tone, "No, Gorstag, I'm just wiser in choosing when to attack. To me, this is just practice."The fight continued, and Kain continued to show his agility and dexterity in dodging his opponent's attacks. He knew that his counterattack could happen at any

What Thing?
"Really, were they chasing you back then?" asked Catallina, wanting to know for sure.Eran nodded as he sifted his gaze towards the soldiers they were observing. "Right, those are Dignus soldiers, they were chasing us back then.""That snob," grumbled Catallina in a hateful tone."Do you know him?" asked Eran, his voice a little louder than expected.Catallina looked sharply at Eran. "Shhh...don't yell. Your voice is too loud!" whispered Catallina in an annoyed tone."Did you hear something?" asked one of the soldiers suspiciously."No," the other soldier replied doubtfully."I just heard what sounded like someone over there," the soldier said, pointing to the thick bushes where Catallina and Eran were hiding.Eran and Catallina lingered in suspense, hoping the soldiers would leave soon."Really?" the first soldier's question echoed in the tension of the silent forest.The two soldiers looking towards the bushes suddenly felt an unexpected presence.

Hunting
Catallina and Eran stepped slowly into the forest of Tossing Rill. They held arrows and long sticks as weapons and carried bags containing the results of their previous hunts."Isn't that enough?" asked Eran, referring to the existing game while pointing at the rabbits and mushrooms lying on the green leaves near them.Catallina shook her head, her eyes busy searching for traces of other possible games. "Not enough. We need more. Rabbits are getting hard to find around here," Catallina explained as she moved her head, searching for signs of the game.Eran understood the situation and looked around the increasingly dense forest. "Hm, we should go deeper into this forest. Chances are we'll find more food sources there, there must be a lot of deer we can bring, I've brought one before, right?" he suggested, hoping to get more adequate game inside the forest.Catallina looked thoughtful for a moment, her concern growing as she felt that time was passi

Come On

The clinking of tankards and the lively melodies of the master bards of Halbarad created a joyous atmosphere, bringing a sense of relief and relaxation to the weary soldiers.Theo approached the table located in the corner where Eran was sitting and then made an inviting gesture. "Eran, why don't you join us?"Eran, with a faint smile, shook his head slowly. Then, Theo asked again, "Does your wound still hurt?"Eran shook his head again. "The longer it goes on, the better it gets," he replied.Theo smiled and looked excited. "Great, so let's join in," he invited, trying to persuade Eran to join in.Eran still refused, "No... you know me, right? I prefer to be alone like this."Theo didn't give up, pleading in an excited tone, "Oh, come on Eran, just once to celebrate the success of our two missions."However, there was a

Into the Next
The shadows suddenly moved again. Eran, breathing heavily, tried to consider stopping for a moment in the dark forest filled with thick fog. For a child of Eran's size, he had shown incredible toughness and courage by being able to penetrate into the haunted and mystical forest of Yaban.However, he didn't have time to rest for long. The voice of an angry warrior could be heard from nearby, intimidating, "Where is that little boy?!" The shout was followed by more voices, "There he is! Let's go get him!"Eran felt his breath catch, and horror began to overcome him. The two soldiers who were trying to capture him kept getting closer, their voices echoing in his ears. The situation was even more difficult because the dark forest made it almost impossible for him to see his way between the dense trees.Unexpectedly, as Eran continued his run, he found himself right in front of a ravine. "Ahhh... ravine!!!" he screeched when his small eyes caught sight of the ravine that lay before him.In

Dreaming
The strapping old man looked at Eran with sharp eyes, hinting at great seriousness. The night wind rustled, and the atmosphere around them was filled with a tense atmosphere. It was as if nature itself was participating in an imminent war."You should run later, Eran. Understood?" he said again, his voice accompanied by the rustling wind that deepened the tension of the night. The dim moonlight shone on the old man's face, revealing the seriousness of his message.Eran pondered, his eyes never leaving the old man's face. Many wrinkles adorned the experienced skin on his face, giving the impression that the man had been through so many battles. There were several small wounds adorning his face, traces of the heroic stories he had gone through.Who knows how many battlefields he had witnessed, who knows how many friends he had left behind. But his scarred face also reveals that he is someone who always perseveres, never giving up.Eran's own face reflects the man's youth. His shoulder-l

Lets Go Back
In the already tense atmosphere, Enid with a chuckle said, "Ah, I forgot about someone... my third sister, Taneaya... I wonder what she looks like now. I'll bet she has grown into a very beautiful girl..." As Enid glanced at Dignus, he looked for any sign of reaction on his brother's face. Not long after, Dignus was startled, his expression frozen as if he saw a ghost. Enid cruelly continued, "I think Taneaya would be an expensive item if he were in my whorehouse, and of course, I would be able to enjoy her body every day."An explosion of rage was inevitable as Dignus vented his anger, shouting, "Bastard!!! I'll kill you if you dare touch her!!!" His eyes turned red and the veins on his face bulged like they were about to burst.Enid smiled with satisfaction, looking at Dignus challengingly. "So? Do you know what to do, Dignus?" asked Enid as he pulled himself closer.The two engaged in a battle of glances, Dignus full of anger and Enid with a terrifying

Crazy Plan
In a room filled with tension, Dignus and Enid faced each other, their eyes radiating anger and hatred toward each other. There was no weakness visible in their postures, each determined to uncover the truth underlying their conflict.Suddenly, Dignus let out a long breath, trying to ease some of the tension that filled the room. "What do you mean?" asked Dignus in a voice that, despite trying to remain calm, sounded bitter.Enid could no longer hide his annoyance. "Don't pretend you don't know! Your acting is terrible, Dignus," he said in an unfriendly tone. With steady steps, he approached Dignus, standing tall before him. "How come the mission in Hollowfield Village is still on your mission list?" said Enid in a puzzled tone.Dignus tried to defend himself, saying, "I already ordered my guild master to burn it when it was sent to my town." His face looked pale with guilt, and Enid's sharp gaze was probing every word that came out of his mouth.However, Enid, who could not bear the
