THE AUTHOR OF DESTINY

02

The night passed. Early in the morning, the uncle went to cut down a tree, not knowing what he was going to do with the logs from the tree he cut down. The sound of cutting down a tree made Lucy wake up

"Hah~ what's that sound? Where's uncle going?" Lucy said while collecting lives

Lucy went out and saw that there were many tree trunks in front of the house. He also saw the uncle who was splitting wood.

"Do you want all that wood?" Ask Lucy

"Yo lazy girl. Has your life been gathered? If you're here help me" said the uncle

"Huh? Why me?" Lucy said no

"Not much to ask, come here"

"Tchh, I'll be there!" Answer Lucy

"Huh, that's annoying, ughh." said Lucy while muttering.

They worked until the sun started to set. After chopping and splitting the wood, the uncle made a martial arts training ground out of the wood with the help of Lucy.

"What exactly is all this for?" Ask Lucy

"From now on I'll teach you martial arts. Although it looks like a weak man, this is how I used to be a strong and gallant traveller. And this place will be your training ground. Your training will begin tomorrow. Now take a shower and we'll eat, after that rest. Because from tomorrow onwards I'll train you until your bones break, and you feel like you're going to die!" Said the uncle telling Lucy his plan

"Wait what?! It's not at all in our agreement, I'm just helping you out and then I've. I don't want to die crazy yet! Denying Lucy

"Listen boy, the world out there is a terrible place for a kid who only knows how to steal like you. Kill or be killed, the weakest will be the strong prey. What I'm trying to say is that you should at least be able to take care of yourself. Besides, you can stay here eating and resting until it's time to go find your own life. So stop arguing and obey, and call me 'teacher' because from now on I will train and teach you"

*Well, I don't have a place to live, even to eat I have to steal. But here, I can eat for free and rest for free. I thought it was better than having to be beaten for bread. How hard will the training be anyway?* Think Lucy

The uncle smiled, and since then Lucy continued to be taught to practice by the uncle.Although sometimes he tried to escape, but he always failed because he was caught by the uncle. Time passed with days full of practice and teaching. Lucy was taught various martial techniques, ranging from basic to deadly techniques to kill someone. He was also taught to hunt, archery, sword, swim, camouflage, and various other ways of attacking and surviving.Not infrequently Lucy was given poisonous plants to train her immunity. He was also told of various poisonous and non-toxic plants and how to distinguish them. Although several times almost dead, crying and desperate, but Lucy managed to get through it.

Lucy's twin sister Louise survived. He was rescued and cared for by a pair of elderly people who had no children. Louise grows up with the affection of her foster carer. Unlike her sister Lucy, Louise has a much better life.

Louise's foster guardian is a pair of farmers, they find Louise by the river while fetching water. They also took him to their home. They also knew that the baby they were carrying was a descendant of the Dallveon kingdom who survived that night (they found out through a necklace around Louise's neck).

Taking care of the baby signifies that they are ready for the consequences that will befall them later. To keep Louise's identity, they gave her a new name 'Ellan'. They pretend to be the grandmother and grandfather who took care of her when her parents died in an accident. But, inevitably, there will come a time when they will have to tell him the truth.

"Sir, cake, what if Ellan helped harvest in the fields today? Ellan's grown up, yeah!" Louise said as she pleaded

"Once Ellan can come, but on condition that Ellan should not be far from Grandma and Grandpa. Ellan also should not talk carelessly to strangers. Promise?" Ask the grandmother

"Yes! Ellan promise!" Prattling

From far away there are many people who also go to harvest in the rice fields. Seeing that, Ellan became very excited. He and the other villagers harvested joyfully. In the midst of the excitement, it was seen from afar that a group of cavalry soldiers were coming towards them. Seeing that, the villagers ran in fear. Grandma and Grandpa ran. But in a hurry, they forgot about Ellan. Seeing the non-existent Ellan, the two immediately panicked and returned to look for Ellan. But too late, the horsemen had found Ellan.

"Is he really?" Said the commander

"Black hair and purple eyes, it's unmistakable that she is the noble Louise Dallveon, the last descendant of the Dallveon kingdom who managed to survive." Answer one of the soldiers

In the midst of their debate, there was a confused Louise: "What do you mean? My name is Ellan, not Louise, and I'm not a royal...?" Louise said innocently

"I'm sorry, my majesty, we've been disrespectful to come to you all of a sudden without introducing ourselves. Then let me introduce, I am Arreon, the commander of the first division warriors. And we are the soldiers of Dallveon kingdom who managed to survive the battle between kingdoms first. We're here to bring his highness the prince back with us." Said the commander

"But my grandmother and grandfather were the children and grandchildren of a farmer, how could I suddenly become a prince?" Louise said in confusion

"Then can you take us to them?" Ask the commander
