Walking towards us slowly, the man says, “You might be the king's guests but know this, you won’t get off easy for this behaviour.”
In the most ving voice I have, I say, “We just happeo find out about this pce.”
“I have been following you for an hour and what I have seen tells me that you both were iionally looking for this door, and the very fact you know about its existence is a national crisis.”
Atanta fires a volley of arrows at the man and picks me up. As we run away, she says, “Anto teleport us!”
Seeing the man approag us I throw my dagger and teleport us away as he attacks.
When we reach our new position Atanta runs at full speed. Looking at her I ask, “Are you ok? Your body is way more ihan mine.”
“Don’t worry I still run, and don’t think for a sed I am going to let you get busted for my mistake.”
From my right side, I hear, “How sweet,” Before Atanta is hit sending her flying again.
As we nd on a building, I feel even worse than before and tio cough. It is like someone just shook all my ans all at once. Looking over to Atanta I see she is struggling to get up.
Turning my head, I see the man approag us at a high speed, so I throw anger and teleport us away.
As we hang in the air, I say, “I will get us away even if I have to use all my daggers.”
I throw dagger after dagger telep us higher and higher. Due to me throwing the daggers upwards, I am uo catch them in the position I teleport to.
After I teleport us a fair distance away, I look behio see the old man still ing, he lunges from structure to structure and even across the sand a frightening speeds.
In my arms, Atanta says, “I will hahis.” Then using her bow she lets out repeated volleys of arrows directly at the old man.
The old man seeing this stops in the middle of the sand then after making a strange movement the sand starts to spin and then turns into a hurrie which blocks all the arrows.
As we move Atanta says, “He is like the rabbit.”
“What rabbit?”
“The ohat fought the giant wonderbeast whe here, he is trolling sand and is attag us from the i just like the rabbit did.”
“But if he fight the same as that little devil-.”
“Then we are in big trouble!”
I teleport us and run from building to building as Atanta tries to ward the man off with tless arrows, but he mao dodge or block them all.
Seeing the door through which we came, I say, “Where almost there.”
I throw one more dagger which will allow us to reach the door, but as I do the old mas out a giant whistle and moments ter a giant wonderbeast with a big open mouth es out of the sand as my dagger mid-air.
Then behind us, I hear, “Gotcha.” Atanta is then hit right iomach, but the moment she is she throws me away and I am sent flying towards the door.
Φ Crap, I am going to pass out any sed now.
The old man in front of me says, “You used the fory teique to send the boy flying away, quite a quick thinker.”
“Getting hit by an attack is the best way to figure out what it is.”
“Spoken like a warrior, now go to sleep.”
As he prepares to hit me again, I scream, “ANTO RUN!!!”
Φ Hearing Atanta's words I run away at full speed. I o find Orb.
-Break-
Φ As I sit in front of Ahmed and all his panions I say, “If yoing to tie me up you could have at least made it pleasurable, this rope work is pletely amateurish, I have felt better from getting my bitten by bugs.”
Angered Scheherazade says, “How dare you, my rope work is top css.”
“Then you must have been sleeping with the teacher then.”
Easifatan says, “How dare you snder my beloved Scheherazade.”
“She is your beloved? That didn’t seem to e up when you wao sleep with me.”
Beside him, Scheherazade gives him a death gre and says, “What!?”
“It se in judgement, I was tricked.”
Feeling a fiery presence, I see the old man say, “You’re the head guard, head of this try's security and you allowed yourself to be tricked!!!”
“Srandpa!”
Hitting him directly iomach, the old man says, “You will be sorry after your re-education training.”
Running onto Ahmed, Easifatan says, “Please help me!!”
Ahmed punches Easifatan on the head and says, “Act ye.”
Walking up to me, Ahmed asks, “How did you know what was in the byrinth?”
“I read a book on your try, and using my keeion skills I figured what I would be looking for would be buried in that tome. You see I was ied in one of your king's resear legacies.”
“That resear legacies was not in that room, I have all those papers in my study.”
“Well, I made an ho mistake then.”
“Old man Naji told me when you saw the symbol on the door you excitedly rao it, which must mean you knew what was behind that door.”
Feeling sweat trickle down my face, I say, “The book I read had a simir symbol so I simply thought it was the door I was looking for.”
Φ “You see that is what bothers me, because there are no written dots about that, my family passed down that information from word of mouth, so you're telling me some random vilge has a book about a secret passed down by word of mouth from geion to geion in my try.”
With a bright smile, she says, “Yes.”
Annoyed I say, “To the east is the ti of Enotita, to the northwest is Molstoria, and far up in the north is Victoria now known as Fimbulwinter. And since I doubt you’re from the dragon tio the west Avesta, I would really like to know where you’re from.”
The woman freezes for a moment and says, “I am from a shitty insignifit little vilge on Terrafide, no pce fit for humans.”
“And this book you read, is anyone allowed to read it?”
“Not everyone, but I would say the number of people who have read it surpasses 200.”
“Did you know on Terrafide there is a try called , and the funny thing about is they offer exges of pure gold for information. So, it is almost improbable that not one of those 200 people who live in your small shitty little vilge wouldn’t have exged said information, especially since your living ditions were as you put it, not fit for humans?”
“We didn’t know such a thing.”
“ sends out people to scour the world looking for small vilges to exge information with.”
“We never saw such a person.”
“I know how thh is, unless you're living in the underworld I guarahey would find your vilge.”
“I am telling the truth you got to believe me.”
“ENOUGH! I was trying to be thoughtful, but you have pushed my buttons too much I will just check your sht now.”
Using my legacy, I extend s to try to attach to her, but upon making tact with her they bounce right off.
Adi to my side says, “What happened?”
“It is possible to use spirit energy to ward off things that directly attack the soul.” Looking down at her I say, “You do realize how suspicious this is.”
“Sorry, but I have some things I would rather no one knows about.”
After she says this I kick her iomad say, “If your tration breaks then I will be able to enter your soul.”
“Unless you feel like burni a stake, I guarantee my tration won't falter.”
Turning my head towards Easifatan, I say, “Go arrest Orb and his panions.”
“Yes, my lord.”
With a panicked voice, she says, “They have nothing to do with this, it was all me!”
“I want to believe that, but I ’t until I check each of their souls.”
“You bastard!”
“I gave you a choice don’t fet that.”
Φ After he says this to me his facial expression ges, and then he says, “Easifatan stay here, it seems Orb will probably be ing towards us, and he won’t be happy get all guards to stand on standby we have no idea how strong he is. I am going to need all your help.”
Scheherazade, Adi, Easifatan and Naji, bow and say, “Yes my king.”
fused I say, “What do you mean Orb is ing?”
As Ahmed is about to say something in response, he suddenly starts to hold his head and falls to his knees. All of his people run to his side and Adi says, “This is a bad time for this, we o get him an apple immediately.”
From behind me, I hear, “Don’t worry I will do it.”
Turning around, I see that Cyrus's sister has just entered. Walking over to him and pig him up, Adi says, “Lady Pari don’t bother yourself with this.”
“It isn’t a bother at all and what kind of fiancé would I be if I leave my parto rot.”
Did she just say, fiancé!?
“I will be on my way now.”
Adi says, “Naji please bring this intruder to a prison cell.”
Φ As my Pari takes me by the shoulder out of the room all I think is; why Raqiue, did you really feel that much hatred?
Φ Walking bato Raqiue’s room all around her body, I see s. “It is just like Yamal,” I say running towards her.
Looking over her sleeping body I see her toss and turn while saying, “Baba, Mama,” with tears in her eyes.
“This isn’t good, this isn’t good.” posing myself I say, “If I wake her she might panic, right now what I o do is ght to Ahmed.”
Walking dowair of the house I head to the door where I see Cyrus walk in with Anto on his back. With a worried look, Anto says, “Orb we have some trouble.”
-Break-
With a slight annoyance, I ask Anto, “Why were you sneaking around in the first pce.”
“Atanta was ag weird, and I thought someone should keep watch of her.”
“Sorry for losing my cool, you were right to watch her. But anyways we o head to the pace to get her bad ask Ahmed to release Raqiue.”
“Orb isn’t it strahat he even keep his lega all the time? I only keep it active when I am awake.”
“Whe earlier Ahmed said he hasn’t slept sihe Rasartine war began, at first I thought he was lying but judging by his behaviour I don’t think that might be true.”
“How is that possible?”
“If I had to guess I would say that apple he was given, I have no idea what it was but when Yamal bit into it he woke up. So, his legacy must turn off when he falls unscious like the rest of us, this will help us.” Because I am not sure if I settle this whole matter peacefully.
Standing up I say, “Let’s ght to the pace.”
As I stand up, Cyrus says, “O-O-O-Orb Ahmed use these s to trol people?”
“I believe he to a certaient.”
“Then he might have messed with my sister.”
“Why do you say that, Cyrus?”
“Sister, Pari was ag stra is almost as if she is a pletely different person, if he used his legacy, he might have done something to her.”
“In all hoy Cyrus, I don’t know if he would do such a thing or not, but we will know if we knock him unscious, but I would rather it not e to that, ok.”
“O-O-Ok Orb.”
Heading outside, I use my legay legs, and then me and Cyrus run directly towards Ahmed's pace.
