There was the sound of a sword clanging, a loud sound from the impact of a hard sword.
"Faster, Allenz!! You're still slow!!" Shouted Finn.
"Curtain, if that's what you're asking for!?" Allenz quickly manipulates the wind around him, then quickly lunges forward towards Finn.
Finn swiftly resisted Allenz's attack with his greatsword. The clang of the sword continued to sound, it had already been about an hour more passed.
Previously, Allenz invited Finn to sharpen his sword skills. By continuing to train with Finn, Allenz continues to improve his abilities. Because to him, his father's techniques and his creation techniques were still not enough, he needed another sword technique for him to combine on his wind magic.
Since the presence of Allenz in the barracks, the relationship of Allenz and Finn should be like a teacher and student, as long as they continue to be with their closeness like family.
"Woven hands, the wind that blows from the valley, and from the sea, with my breath, I will not waver. Cyclone Drill's." Allenz quickly turned around like a drill.
Finn also quickly cast a defensive spell. "As a solid rock on a mountain, the horizon shines, great ground, defend it. The Stone Wall."
Allenz's attack on Finn's stone wall, with the force of the impact causing the dust to fly, Allenz quickly removes the dust around. However, Finn is nowhere, Allenz twists his body, searching for Finn's whereabouts. But as he was about to turn to the right, a sword was already near his neck.
"...."
"...."
Taking a deep breath, Allenz dropped his sword. "Huffs.... You're great, even though you have a big body, but you have a speed that's not kidding."
Finn then pulled out his sword, and put it back in the sheath on his back.
"Hahahaha, I take that as a compliment, but honestly your sword skills are quite skilled, only in my opinion, your shortcomings are in your magic, I suggest you practice other magic as well besides wind. Because then you can face any conditions by utilizing all the magic you're good at." Finn's advice.
Allenz was pensive, according to him, what Finn said was right, despite having great mainstay magic, but his wind speed was still below. Unlike the speed of lightning magic, or even light. Who has a speed that is not playful, he is only limited to the speed of wind and sound or Mach.
Honestly, if he were to compete with the lightning or light magic users, he would be left far behind them, and indeed, the speed of these two elements was fairly fast.
"Well, I'll try to learn another magic." Allenz.
"Then, we'll take care of it first." Finn said.
Allenz then went to his room, in the barracks. After entering his room, he quickly laid his body into the mattress, although the quality of the mattress here is not too good than his home.
After two months ago, where the four kingdoms had made an alliance, now several soldiers were deployed to guard the border region of each kingdom from intruders, especially the demons who were about to infiltrate.
All the things that happened, making Allenz's head sick, he still did not expect that he who used to be very sure to join the war when he was 13 years old.
However, because if he were to resign, this would also be bad for his pride. "By the way about self-esteem. Since when did I become like this? I shouldn't have to follow the thinking of these people, which is like the thinking of the middle ages."
Turning his body, he stared at the ceiling of the room, pensive himself then decided to sleep.
On the other hand, in the demon territory, there was a problem, especially in the area near the city center. There has been a civil war, due to a power struggle, which started from some of the brothers of the demon king now, namely Gregory.
Where some of his brothers were about to overthrow his throne. Some felt that they did not benefit from the ascension of Gregory to become king, some wanted to get the position of king because it should not be Gregory, because Gregory was the youngest child in the demon royal family, and some wanted to get the position of king, because it's not the firstborn.
"Kill those traitors!? Don't let them get into town!?" Say one demon with a large body with red skin and two goat horns on the right and left of his head.
The demon kingdom army then began to attack the rebel demons, with expertise in fighting of course the demon army won in numbers and abilities. Remember they are the ones who fight on the battlefield.
Desperate by the troops that kept coming, the rebels could only escape into the forest and go out of the demon territory and settle in the forest near the Diamondnia kingdom.
...****************...
Opening his eyes slowly, Allenz was surprised by himself in the laboratory, he also realized that he was using his doctor clothes, even still using his old body.
He looked around, just a dark straight hallway, and a few lights were twinkling.
There was also only his office door. Walking towards the door, in front of the door was a door with a square glass on top, peering out of the glass, just a dark room. Under the glass, too, was a name written "Dr. Christopher Fran Newton, M. D".
Trying to turn the door knob, it's just that the door seems locked, can't be opened at all. Even Allenz, who is now Chris, his old body, has tried several times to break it, but there is no result.
Surrendering, Chris turned back, he walked the other way from the door, into the straight hallway earlier, only severe damage, a few gunshots, blood, some damage like claws, and black stains.
Chris's steps stopped when to his right was a mirror, approaching the mirror, visible face of his old self, with black hair straight down, using glasses, with a whisker and a thin beard.
Until he looked again at the end of the hall he was heading to before, now it appeared from far away a room covered with glass, and a room filled with coolers.
Continuing the journey, he headed towards the glass room, step by step, his legs felt heavy, the surrounding atmosphere made him creep, inexplicably the atmosphere there became terrible.
When we got to the front of the glass room, we saw a tube with a body inside. Allenz's teenage self.
His eyes glared at that, from behind the glass he saw his new body, only silent in the water tube, which was displayed in the glass room, which only used white tight shorts.
Then, as he climbed the stairs leading to the room, he pressed the blue button near the glass door, opening the glass door to the side.
The chill that was produced from the room came out, pierced the skin, the coolant there was enough to keep the body inside the tube.
Walking slowly, he went into the glass room, there was some data and writing behind the door with the word "Hide-65 experimental room".
He also approached the water tube, and saw the body of himself (Allenz), who was 16 years old.
Facing to the right, he headed towards the table with some data there, there were some data crossed out with red markers. From "Hide-1" to "Hide-64".
Where the figure shows the failed bodies that he used to test as New Human.
These files remind him of a long time ago. He is still working with the WHO as a surgeon on research to find a cure for the magic phenomenon, although the drug will not affect that phenomenon.
When he saw the file, he looked at the floor, where a puddle of water was flowing under his feet, and he quickly saw the tube behind him.
Surprisingly, the trapped "Allenz" body came out on its own, as it came out and lived, evidenced by the body falling down and kneeling, vomiting blood, shortly after, the body saw Chris and immediately lunged towards him.
Seeing that, Chris leaped to the left side, and causing himself to come out with a tumble falling from that glass chamber, his body becoming aching and sore as he fell down from the stairs of the room.
Then trying to calm his yellowed head, he immediately stood up and closed the glass room.
The body of the New Human "Allenz" thrashed behind the glass while slacking the glass door. Before long the skin of the New Human "Allenz" began to loosen and become pale, making some skin detach and show a terrible shape with some parts of the flesh visible.
Chris who was still lying on the ground then stood up, and saw the state of New Human "Allenz" which looked terrible like a zombie.
Walking back slowly, with trembling legs he tried to get away, but the New Human "Allenz" started banging his head against the glass door, causing the glass door to crack slightly.
Chris's self flinched every New Human "Allenz" it banged its head, until its head and door glass were stained with blood from a head wound that was violently smashed.
Chris, who was far enough away, turned around and tried to run, and along with the glass door of the room that broke, with a New Human "Allenz" coming out of the room.
While exerting all his strength, he tried to leave the office room himself, behind him, "Allenz zombie" was still chasing, occasionally shouting loudly in a hoarse and disjointed tone, which added to the terrible impression. "You. aDalAh... pENyeBab... Semua... This..., kAu yANG MeMBuANg kAMI."
Arriving at his office door, he tried to turn the doorknob, several times, while knocking and banging on the door several times, until he forcibly broke the door, once, twice, four times.
While "Allenz zombie" was closing in, with great difficulty, the door opened, quickly, Chris closed the door, and using a cupboard near the door, he immediately pushed the closet and blocked the door so that "Allenz zombie" did not enter.
The sound of a break was heard, causing the closet to almost fall, fortunately Allenz held the closet, the sound of "Allenz zombie" grew bigger, even his strength was not playful. Chris needed a lot of stamina to hold the closet so that "Allenz zombie" could not enter.
"Ohhhhh!!!" Shouted Chris who was struggling to hold the closet.
Until a long time ago, the sound of "Allenz zombie" was not heard anymore, only silence, he seemed to give up. Still staring at the cupboard, and retreating slowly, he then tried to calm his racing heart.
"You're home, darling~"
Suddenly Chris looked back, where on his office desk, there was a shadow of someone sitting cross-legged on the desk.
Turning on Chris' desk lamp, there was a woman in office clothes, with short blond hair rolling up at the front end of her bangs.
"Le–"
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Calm yourself, you seem to be panicking." Said the woman.
The woman came down from the table, and walked towards Chris gracefully, and the sound of high heels rang out every step of the way.
Allenz was slightly suspicious of this state, his face showing a face that was difficult to explain.
The woman then stopped in front of Allenz, then smiled. "You shouldn't be here."
"Huh?!" The words confused Chris and raised one eyebrow.
Suddenly the door behind him that was originally closed the closet was gone, and replaced with an open door in which there was only visible darkness.
Then the woman approached Chris and whispered. "I hope you find me, I can still feel you, look for me." After the remark, the woman pushed Chris, causing him to fall into the darkness.
Opening his eyes, Allenz woke up from his sleep, he then held his head in pain.
"W-what was that?! Uh?! Len–"
"Allenz!!" Before long Allenz's room door was broken by a panicked Finn. "You're not ap–"
Where, Finn was surprised by Allenz's messy room, all his belongings scattered, only the bed and Allenz was still in place.
"ee.... I can explain." Allenz.
Finn decides to take Allenz out, taking Allenz around the barracks. While walking leisurely, Allenz recounted his dream, which was as somewhat vague to him.
"Of course, I still don't fully understand your dream." Finn said.
"Well, you don't have to understand that either."
"What?"
"It's okay, I'm just talking to myself."
"How to get rid of your anxiety, we're back to training." Finn's advice.
Allenz just stared with lazy eyes, this big man just thought about training and training muscles.
"By the way, it's late afternoon, I'd better have dinner." Allenz.
"Hey, I'm just kidding." Said Finn trying to catch up to Allenz.
In the dining room, such as the canteen, where the room consists of neatly lined tables and long chairs to be filled by many people.
Allenz then went to the menu table, he went there and picked up a wooden bowl and a wooden spoon, walked a little forward on the menu table, he just took the egg soup, with him took one medium-sized loaf.
Putting his food on the table, he was about to eat it, but two soldiers sat at his table, right in front of him.
"Well, look at little Allenz."
"Yo, hello Allenz, sorry can we join?"
Allenz just rolled his eyes, then scooped his soup, when he was about to open his mouth to receive the warm soup, Finn suddenly patted Allenz's shoulder quite hard, causing the Allenz spoon to come off and fall.
The two warriors in front of him only fell silent, and only watched Allenz who was sculpting.
Allenz turned his body around and spoke to Finn. "Old man, can you not pat someone who is about to eat?"
Finn was silent for a moment, then laughed. "Haha!! I'm just a little aware of you who's still kind of burdened."
Shaking a little, Allenz took the bread, and dipped it in his soup.
Opens mouth
The sound of bells was heard, indicating that the soldiers were called to gather in the barracks field.
Inevitably, Allenz just bit once the bread, then went out with the soldiers and Finn who came out. Even Allenz hasn't been drinking since the beginning.
All the soldiers gathered, and only about dozens gathered, quite a bit more than usual.
Willle appears who walks while accompanying the king who is with him.
The king then stood in front of everyone, and Finn also stood beside the king with Willle.
Then the king said. "Consideration and thank you for gathering here, I know that there are very few here, because you know, that there are some soldiers who take leave, and as a middle guard on the borders of the kingdom territory for no intruder into our kingdom."
Everyone became quiet, they put their ears up well to hear the information from their king.
"Then with great regret, in the middle of the day leading up to tonight, I send you to the fortress of Rockfolt, in the territory of the kingdom of Spadeforia, to carry my message." King Saying.
Finn then asks about the king's plan. "I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, Your Majesty, is it not best to bring in additional personnel for this plan? It would be quite dangerous to travel in the middle of the night with a small army." Finn's advice.
"I know, that's what I'm going to ask some of the guards in the south to join you guys." Answer King. "Then, then, again, sorry to give this plan at night."
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry, we'll go there quickly." Finn Said. "Then, everyone get ready!!"
"HAA!!!" Say all the soldiers, then disperse and prepare to leave.
