DESTINY GIRL

73. Looking to Die ?

The robbers ran out of the room. They know their own weaknesses. Can't fight in a dark room. Right after the last person jumped out, the door of the hall was closed.

" Blaamm..... "

But they just smirked a little. These people have no fear of the unseen. They only believe in cunning wits and physical strength. Death to them is considered as bad luck.

There were strange sounds mixed with obscure hums. Then came some witches from the hallway. Five robbers immediately downing the wine of death (the wine that has been smashed by a white witch to fight demons or black magicians ) . White magicians are usually imprisoned in remote mountains. They distance themselves from worldly desires. Maybe the robbers got the spell in a sneaky way.

This time the witches did not fly, they were seen walking but it was already in plain sight. Their eyes sharply stared at the robbers one by one. One of them swung his hand, throwing dozens of poisonous needles. The five robbers immediately brushed aside with their respective weapons, making the needles flung against the wall or back at the witches.

A robber leaps forward on a witch. Not forgetting to spout death wine.

" Czzzzz." "the spark just hollowed out his robe.

Angrily the witch moved her hand hitting the robber's back.

" Your....! "

" arrgh.....! "

Robbers staggered into the wall. His back was emitting black smoke. He grimaced in pain and fell down. His back quickly rotted and smelled bad. None of the robbers came to his aid. For them it was in vain.

" It's impossible....! " other robbers were stunned. The water of death was apparently unable to fight this witch.

They do not understand that witches also have basic elements. Especially if the origin is human, not a mixture of demons. This means they have to fight with weapons.

" Crasshh.....! "

A boomerang successfully injured one of the witches. And the boomerang turned back on its owner, the short-bodied robber. Quickly he threw back but one witch stopped in midair and twisted the direction of the attack. " .... ! "

Robbers in the fog dodged the mad boomerang.

" heah.... ! "

" Oiii....! "

" Oh.....! "

" Badc.....!

The chief robber managed to break the boomerang down. He sizzled angry. It was not easy to defeat the palace witches. One of his men ran into the yard. With his sword he reflected the sunlight to the witch.The others immediately followed.

A magician who was exposed to the light bias instantly burned at his chest. There was immediate panic from the witches. All the robbers were in unison moving their weapons so that the light hit all the witches. Seeing that the witches were trying to escape. But too late, their bodies smoky everywhere, then they were reduced to ashes.

All the robbers cheered victory. They understood Now that anything had to be done against the enemy even though it sounded absurd. They nodded at each other and moved in again. When passing through the hall, some of them glanced at the door of the main hall. But none of them wanted to go in there. So they simply combed through the palace hallway which looked dirty and gloomy. They did not enter any room.

When he reached the intersection of the hallway, a low growl sounded. Everyone is immediately alert. The chief robber chose the left aisle. They continued to walk and reached the open courtyard. There's a lot of bones in there. Also the weapons scattered. They observe the surroundings.

However they were surprised as there were many black-robed figures already standing in every crevice of windows and buildings. Also in the hallway they had passed. Like waiting for time or something ?

The chief robber felt stupid and trembled. He made a fatal mistake. Bringing his men trapped in the palace, surrounded by witches and demons. One of his men took the initiative of reflecting the sunlight on the demonic figure in the window. It managed to burn him. The others immediately followed as much as they could with the weapons they had. Only axes, swords and boomerangs could be used. For the one carrying the bow, it was dipped in the urn of death wine and fired at the witch. They must fight to the death. Whatever way. Although it was clear that they were outnumbered by the palace residents.

In the midst of the struggle, they felt that something had changed. Some of the witches in the hallway disappeared into smoke. Then two people were wearing sparkling robes. The robe reflected the attacks of the witches so that they were not injured. It turns out they are Rey and Asgar.

Feeling that there was hope in life, the robbers came back to fight. When the hallway was empty, Rey ran while shouting.

" You're all holding hands, hurry .....! "

Asgar catches up and immediately holds the arm of the chief robber and puts his hand on Rey's shoulder.

" Quick .....! " Asgar snaps.

The robbers followed despite being confused. The witches and demonic figures approached with angry growls. But in an instant they found the place empty. Rey takes all the relocates (teleportation ) to the capital square. Of course the robbers were shocked and dumbfounded.

" Woaaah....! "

Their eyes were staring at his surroundings. Asgar shields Rey's shoulder so as not to fall. The necklace on Rey's neck emitted an energy-giving light. Rey controlled her breathing. There was the muttering of the townspeople who happened to be around the square.

" Why did those people suddenly appear here ? "

" Who are they ? "

" It looks like a robber huh ? "

The robbers began to realize what had happened. They have been moved by Rey and Asgar. That means they survived !

The robber leader immediately knelt down before Rey and Asgar. His men who saw it immediately knelt all.

" Mister and Miss. Thank you for helping us. Forgive those of us who have done no good before" said the chief robber lowered his head in shame.

" What are you looking for there ? Are you looking for death ? " ask Rey softly.

" us.... We.. It's stupid "the chief robber feels his tongue is a mute. He was ashamed of his mistake of dragging his men to death. He was also embarrassed to want the Girl of Destiny who turned out to save them all.

" Wake up, take them all. Buy a house for a place to live. You can work as a guard or a freight guard. Don't do anything bad except defend yourself" Rey said. Asgar gave one bag of gold coins to the chairman.

" Thank you Miss, thank you Mr "all in unison. Rey and Asgar waved their hands.

After Rey and Asgar died, the chief robber was still sitting on his knees. His men went forward around him.

" The leader "asked one of them.

" I'm sorry, I don't deserve to be your chairman. I'm so stupid, I .... " The chairman is embarrassed.

" Have the chief, don't do this. We're all counting on you. We believe in you "answer them. They hugged each other.
