BATTLE CRY'S

Lontara 09: The defeat of Andros

Qian swore loudly and then hit Andros' stomach. Andros was not ready to step back five steps.

"The sword is a wooden sword, where it can slash my neck you can't force me to give up on such ordinary wood." Qian smiled in annoyance.

"You haven't given up, all right. I won't hold back!"

Andros made a horse and was ready to attack, this time he poured his power into his sword.

Qian advanced and slammed a punch towards Andros. Before the blow hit Andros, Qian was immediately thrown several meters back. The attack cannot be seen by ordinary eyes.

"Straight Hundred swords - 5th technique, Fatal Puncture"

Qian instantly thrashed, she held her chest in pain and she felt burning like there was fire inside her chest.

The medics came and healed him, Qian was instantly unconscious.

"The winner is Andros!" The host shouted Andros' name out loud.

Making the whole stadium splash, those who bet on Qian did not end up thinking even some of them were crying, while those who bet on Andros jumped in the stadium and hugged each other. It turned out that they were carrying eight times their initial money.

Andros is directed to stand in front of the jury building, the three nobles look enthusiastic to recruit Andros in their respective units, while the princess thinks for a moment, thinking for a moment, but the representatives of the Natural Valley Sect who joined the jury did not budge. He looked at Andros coldly.

"Young man, your skills are great. Your strength will be appreciated by Logan Knight's Army" the middle-aged man raised both hands.

"Don't listen to him young man, you'll be more respected in the Tarot Knight unit. After all, brother Jom, isn't your body making you very unsuitable to be the leader of one of the three pillars of Knights in this Geateria Kingdom?" the old man pointed at the bundle of fat in the belly of the Nobles of Jom.

They started to fight each other.

"Brother Andros, I'm interested in your fighting style and magic, A Sword Magician is very worthy of us joining the Royal Knight!. We protect this kingdom to the point of the last blood" the young man with Rapier long took Andros.

Andros was about to open his mouth but was preceded by the representatives of the Valley of Nature.

"Andros!!, I'm sure you're covering something up, aren't you?" The representative stood up and stared intently at Andros.

Andros did not answer but bowed. He felt that the elder realized something.

"If you don't want to talk about it it's okay but, let me do the talking."

All the spectators were silent.

"This young man has lied!" The man said it out loud.

"This kid lied about his magic without elements. Because from the beginning he didn't use magic!" People frowned.

"Some of you may not have heard this news, but. Have you ever heard the News of the Cursed Child from this Blue Lake Village?"

The man with his loud voice drugged the audience. Andros felt like he was struck by lightning.

"The child who is cursed because he is the only person in this world who does not have Magic. He is the one!. This liar is that damned child!"

"I had been suspicious since the beginning because every time he did something, there was no sign of magic power around him."

The three nobles were immediately silent and had no intention of offering Andros to join their unit, as it was likely that their names would be tarnished if they recruited Andros.

The audience began to shout at Andros as a liar, as if his ability in the fight was covered by the greatness of his name as a cursed child. Inside the podium Fat boy Zang smiled knotly with bandages and spalaks on his hands and feet.

Although Andros' patience was high, but he felt very embarrassed, he was worried that his father's name would be tarnished because of this so he left the arena with his head bowed.

The Princess had been silently staring at Andros who slowly disappeared from the stadium.

Arriving at the door of his house he was stunned for a moment. He took a breath and let it out slowly and smiled.

He opened the door and saw the girl he found was clean and Andria was bribing her.

Seeing Andros the girl immediately stood up then saluted. Andros told him to sit down and eat. He went to see his mother in the kitchen.

"How was that?"

"Well" Andros replied as he took off his protective clothes.

"You managed to become one of the Knights?"

"Em.. no."

"What's going on?"

"Nothing" Andros was about to come out but was arrested by his mother.

He pulled Andros and held his two shoulders. He smiled softly.

Andros was no longer strong and wept in front of his mother, he wept but without sound and without sobbing.

The mother hugged Andros and stroked his son's back.

"Why?, why are they, Mom?. What damned child?. Who is cursed?, Why am I cursed?. Why is the world so unfair?"

"You're not a cursed child, Andros. You are a gift. A gift for mother, for father, for Andria. And to the girl you saved. You are a gift to this family." Mom is sobbing

That night only a cold wind accompanied the mother and child were sad.

After that they both came out of the kitchen and saw Andria thinking about something while the silver-haired girl beside her sat expressionlessly. He saw his mother and Andros and saluted him.

"What's up Andria?" Ask Andros.

"I was thinking of a good name for Margaret" Andria again massaged her forehead.

"Margaret?, who is it?" Ask Andros.

"Margaret is this girl's name." Andria pointed at the silver-haired girl.

"If the name is margaret, why change it?"

"Because it's ugly, I've asked what his name is but he's silent like a gorgoyle statue at the village gate. So I call it margaret."

Andros squatted looking into the girl's eyes, the girl just stared at Andros expressionlessly.

"Cyana" muttered Andros.

"What?" Andria frowned.

"Because her eyes are cyan blue, so her name is Cyana." Then Andros went into the room and took the black box he got in the wreckage of the ship.

He took out a necklace with the eyes of a flower-shaped necklace from a precious stone that was blue. It was actually a locket.

"From now on your name is Cyana. Your eyes are the same color as this necklace's eyes, I thought it would suit you"

He draped it down the girl's neck, and smiled gently. Andros had no idea what the girl was thinking but her face was flat, cold and expressionless.

"You look sweet, Cyana"

Andros smiled warmly and stroked Cyana's head while Andria shook her head softly with a faint smile, while mother patted her eel with a small laugh.

"Oh, I'm fifteen but you can be as romantic as your father, you bad boy" mother shut her mouth and chuckled.

Andros frowned not understanding her mother's intentions, while Cyana just bowed to look at the locket. What he thinks only he understands.
