“Most likely, on the enemy side there is a person who has the power of Platinum.” level Simon suddenly said.
“What Brother? Are you sure. Platinum level? Why is there a platinum-level bandit all of a sudden here? But, why can you say that they, have someone platinum level on their side?” asked Sam who looked worried.
“This mission is a trap mission. I'm sure Steven set us up. Some of the people in our caravan are staunch supporters of Steven. I'm sure we can't expect more to be able to save ourselves.” Simon is resigned.
“Lucas, if what I fear is really happening, I beg you to save my sister.” Pinta Simon by giving Lucas a pleading look.
“Bos don't be too pessimistic like that. I will try my best to protect you and your brother. You've already saved my life. Now replace me who will save your life.” Lucas was full of emphasis.
Simon was seriously injured by a bandit attack. He was not as strong then. He was in a dying state was found by Simon when his caravan passed. Simon immediately gives Lucas help so that he survives death.
After recovering, Lucas vows to avenge Simon by working for him. He also said that Simon, who had helped him from death, now had his life. He would have sacrificed his life if Simon had ordered.
“Do not act stupid. If you really want to return the favor to me, just save yourself and my sister. Most likely their target is me. So, please save my sister.” Please Simon.
“So don't say that. We must have a way out. Ah. Ah. I remember. Try asking someone to ride the train number twenty-two. I'm sure he can help us.” Said Sam.
Sam remembered the four people he had met this morning. They have different auras. Sam was convinced the man was a high-level professional. Although Sam did not know the level of strength of the man earlier,
it's not wrong to try.
When his brother and Lucas were busy handling the goods they were going to send, Sam got a report from one of their men that there was an old man who had eliminated a local thug.
From his traits Sam could guess that he was the same person as the passenger of the number twenty train. This adds to Sam's confidence that the person can help them right now.
“What way are you Sam. Do you want to involve others in our problems?” Jerky Simon.
“Not so brother. But I'm sure the man on train number twenty-two can help us. He seems to be a high-level professional. Maybe he can help us. At least we try it Brother.”
“Lucas. Hurry up and ask the Lord over there for help. You should ask for help with as polite as possible.” Sam's orders.
“Sam...” Simon raised his voice a little.
“We don't have any more time Sis. There's nothing we can do, right? Better to try it instead.” Sam replied in a soft voice.
Simon was silent at his brother's words. It's true there's nothing they can do anymore. There is no harm in telling the person Sam meant and asking the person for help. If that person was able to help, they would be greatly helped.
Simon nodded his head slowly. Giving consent to Sam. Seeing this, Sam told Lucas to hurry.
“Quick Lucas, fast. We don't have time anymore.”
John smiled broadly as he felt the presence of someone beside the carriage he was riding. Not long after, a knock was heard that was not too loud from the outside of the train.
Geck, tok, tok.
John opened the window. Next to the carriage John could see a knight riding on Hontrea staring at him with a face full of worry.
Looking at the open carriage curtain, Lucas took a deep breath and spoke to the man in front of him. He did not forget Sam's message, to be as polite as possible to the man in front of him.
“Master, sorry to interrupt your time. Our caravan is currently facing a bit of trouble. The caravan is currently under siege by a bandit group. According to our estimates there was at least someone with Platinum level strength in the bandit group.” Lucas.
“Ehm... Are you willing to help us?” Lucas asked anxiously. Lucas is not yet one hundred percent sure this man has the ability to help them get away with this problem.
Lucas's question only received a reply in the form of a smile from John. Lucas was a little suspicious of the response he got. Lucas thought that John was a plotter from a bandit group that would attack them.
But he put the idea aside. It was because this man came with three small children. There was no way he was a member of the bandits who were now surrounding them.
“It looks like I'll get some entertainment tonight.” Said John.
“You rest easy I'll help you clean up those bandits. Old Man's hands are already itchy and want to pat some mice.”
A wide grin appeared on John's face at this moment. After that, he tapped his cane slowly towards the floor of the carriage. Not long after, a barrier appeared and enveloped the train.
Lucas, who saw it, began to believe that this man had enough ability to help them. From his observations alone, Lucas could conclude that his powerful attack would not be able to destroy the barrier made by this man.
This meant that this man had power over him. It was likely that he possessed strength at the Platinum level. There was relief in Lucas when he found out. Simon and Sam still have a chance of surviving this danger.
John patted Ellie's cheek. Trying to wake the girl. Not long after Ellie who was beside John woke up from her sleep. With sleepy eyes Ellie looked at John.
“What's Grandpa John? Why did you wake me up? Did the caravan stop?” Ellie asked in a slightly hoarse voice.
“No. I woke you up because there will be entertainment after this. I think it would be a pity if you missed this. You can learn a thing or two after this. Don't forget to wake your two brothers.”
After saying that, John disappeared from Ellie's presence. The girl heard a loud noise from the roof of the car, like something heavy was put there. Ellie believes the noise is John's act of changing his position to sit on the roof of the train.
Seeing this, Ellie opened her eyes wide. He turned towards the window that opened the curtain.
Outside Ellie could see a knight looking in disbelief at the spot where John had sat before. It looks pretty dark out there. If only there was not enough moonlight, Ellie would definitely not be able to see the atmosphere out there.
It looks like after this something will really happen. Ellie saw the Knight who was beside the carriage making his ride.
