THE LAST HOBBIT'S

32 - Unexpected Things

The battle in the Elmora Kingdom palace was still going on at this moment. Even an explosion was created and destroyed one of the roofs of the palace.

Someone used a flying broomstick and shot out from the explosion. There was a white-robed man chasing after him and a fight back ensued, this time dotting the sky of the king's palace.

Another explosion was seen and smashed the windows of the palace, some people were thrown out with magic following them. The attack made the magic knight hit the ground unconscious.

Arslan walked out of the rubble of the window and saw blood pouring down his forehead, even down his cheek. His dagger-wielding hand also looked dirty from the blood. His own breath even looked irregular.

Arslan fights against the magic knights of Gladius Kingdom. Meanwhile, due to the help of Prince Edgar Lorillis Sulla who faced Raegon Lugner, some of the magic knights of the Elmora Kingdom palace had escaped the control of puppet magic.

Not only that, members of the Golden Sun group also helped Arslan. Although he was the one who fought more of these enemies.

Arslan's gaze was blurry, almost he fell if a hand did not immediately pull and make him jerk. He then turned his head and found out that the figure that prevented his body from falling was none other than Natur.

"Arslan, are you okay?!" Nature looks surprised. He was shocked to see Arslan's condition full of wounds like this.

"I...... I'm hungry,"

!!

Nature stunned. He seemed to have misheard the words of this 1.3 meter tall young man. He believes that Arslan is unlikely to complain of hunger when the situation is still in a chaotic atmosphere as it is now.

"Arslan, you-!!" Nature is surprised not to play when she hears Arslan's stomach sounding.

"Help me, Natur. I need to find food now,"

"W-what? But..." Nature does not have to give a response like what. He was about to speak when a light from a magic spell shot towards him. Without hesitation, Natur then pulled his bow and arrow shot.

Natural attacks do not kill the opponent's life. His arrows turned into ropes that bound the opponent's body, even to the point of dropping their magic wand. Natur again grabbed Arslan's arm and held the body of his friend who almost fell.

"Bring your friends and get out of here..!" a member of the Golden Sun group exclaimed at Nature. The figure became a protector and fought the magic knights who were enemies in this place.

"Thank you..!" Natur embraces Arslan and immediately takes her away with a ride on her bow. The battle is now going on between the magic knights.

"Dad, isn't the relationship of Elmora Kingdom with Gladius Kingdom very good? Why are they attacking us?!" Sofia is currently the Green Palace of the Elmora Kingdom. The location is among the grove of pine trees and is quite hidden.

Gavin William and her twin sister Liana Elberta looked at King Henry as if he had the same question as Sofia. They did not understand why King Gavierra Bernand of Gladius attacked and even cooperated with Raegon Lugner.

King Henry Nelius Sulla II looked at his two wives before looking at Sofia. He said, "Father... What they did had something to do with the map of the Dragon Conqueror Sword."

"What... That only?" Sofia senses that her father is hiding something else. He followed his father's gaze before he sighed.

"I think it's all my fault that I rarely stay in the palace," Sofia crossed her arms and then turned around. He noticed this place that was indeed intended for the protection of the royal family.

Sofia knows that her father doesn't have only one answer to her question. This was only an estimate, but he felt that King Gavierra Bernand and Raegon Lugner wanted the expansion of the human race's territory in this place.

'The kingdom of Elmora has a small territory and the conquest of it will not have a great influence on the Elf race'. So maybe it was for this reason that they dared to attack.

Sofia suddenly remembered Arslan and Natur. He was just about to look for the two friends when he heard an outside voice where An was with the Elmora Kingdom knights.

"Bring him in..!" one of the knights from the Golden Sun group sounded. He helps a blonde teenager to bring in an injured dwarf.

"Asians...!" Sofia is shocked to see Arslan's wounds so badly. He followed his friend and saw Arslan lying down.

Although mastered healing magic, but Arslan's energy really seems to run out because of his hunger. And instead of asking to be treated, he immediately called Sofia and asked to bring some food. Arslan's actions were shocking, even to King Henry who heard it.

Arslan grimaced because of the pain he was experiencing as well as the winding on his stomach. The huge rumbling sound made Natur and the others stare intently at Arslan. They wondered how could this subject be so much more concerned with his stomach than the wounds he had sustained.

"Please, if I may really want to eat meat." Arslan held his stomach. He was not ashamed to ask for food.

"Arslan, the blood on your head is still pouring out and you're asking for food?!" Sofia flashes. "Are you crazy?"

"I'll starve to death like this" Arslan's stomach rang again. "Hurry now! Are you so poor that you can't even feed me?!"

!!!

Sofia shock. This was the first time he had been yelled at like that by a figure who had always spoken in a flat tone to him. Even Arslan's expression of being annoyed at not being fed was much more lively than it had been seen all along.

It's just that he was just about to open his voice when Arslan was suddenly unconscious and it came back to his surprise. The 1.3-meter-tall young man seemed to have only really felt the severe injuries he had sustained.
