The Son of God
The knight of darkness
The night had come, there was a crescent moon in the sky that illuminated the dark night. It's now 23:00 where father, mother and Nia are asleep.
I wore a robe that my mother made and wore a skull mask.
I looked at myself in the mirror, I was like looking at a ruthless killer. I immediately took the iron sword next to me, I got this sword from the warehouse despite it being rusty and dirty but this is better than nothing.
I went out through the window so as not to wake the person in the house. I jumped out the window and ran towards the forest.
I heard there were only a few monsters in the forest but to make my debut my target was the bandits hiding in the forest. I'm sure they have a lot of money I can take.
I jumped from branch to branch while hiding my presence. And finally I found the hideout of the bandits.
I think it was the middle of the forest, I found a wooden house and there were some people standing guard outside.
1, 2, 3. Hmm.. There are 6 people who are standing guard outside the house, yes.
I pulled the sword from my waist and descended down silently then I ran with lightning in my legs so that I could move quickly. I killed all the guards outside without making a sound.
All right, next up are those who are inside the house.
...----------------...
A little girl ran away from home to play. He was walking around town hugging a teddy bear.
Since this was his first time out of the house, he did not know where he was walking until he had unknowingly walked into a small, dark alley.
He walked over and accidentally hit something. He looked ahead and found two suspicious men.
Then, he fainted.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself confined in a small, dark room.
Not only himself but he also discovered there was another girl who was the same as him.
His hands and feet were tied with rope, and his mouth was clothed with cloth.
He was trembling and frightened.
He could hear the sound of bandits talking next door.
“Gyahaha. Today is our lucky day, from her beautiful clothes and looks like she is a noble princess.”
They know it from their personal belongings. Now they know who he is.
“I'm curious, we can how well after selling the jewelry.”
“Stupid! We'll get a lot of money if we ask for a ransom instead of selling those little jewels.”
A rude laughter sounded.
Fearing for her safety, the girl was desperate. The bandits had two options: They bargained with his family, or they could sell him to someone who knew his high price.
He believes they chose the last option. Even though he was valuable, a mere bandit would have a hard time exercising his rights.
By selling. They can get gold easily. Then, he will fall into the hands of political enemies...
The thought scared him.
Turn him around to try to untie the rope.
He screamed through it.
“Hey, it looks like the princess is awake.”
“Come check him.”
He could hear footsteps getting closer. His muffled cry turned into a scream as tears streamed down his cheeks.
But when the door opens....
“Ah..”
“Hei! What was? Gah!”
He heard the sound of bandits screaming and then disappeared one by one.
“Hey, what is it?! Akh...”.
“Because of you! What's up!? A...”
Something moved quickly like lightning.
He could smell the blood. Shamefully through the door.
Outside, there was a boy wearing a black robe and a skull for his head, and a bandit all by himself.
“Where did you come in from?! And S-Who are you?! Can kill my friend in an instant, you monster!”
The bandit trembled while staring at the boy.
“Why don't you run? I'll give you five seconds to run.”
“A-Are you sure?”
“Sure. Why not?”
Upon hearing the boy's words, the bandit ran out in haste then as the bandit touched the door algae, a second later the sword was swung and his neck was sliced by the sword.
“Oh. Your time to run is up.”
The movement was so beautiful that the girl forgot what was going on and just looked at it.
He didn't know much about swords, but the technique was much more beautiful than any technique.
The sword sliced through the necks of the bandits skillfully, and the scream stopped.
“Hey man, I came all the way here, and they have no gold. Huh huh? Oh, there's more.”
seeing a girl, the skull boy opened the door. Light flowed into the room as their eyes met.
“Ah, kidnapped child. And there are others. A tough day for you guys huh?”
In an instant the boy disappeared and returned to his starting place.
“Good. Goodbye, be careful when you get home.” The boy started walking quickly.
Without them noticing, the rope that tied them was cut off. He called out to her in despair.
“Tu-Wait!”
“Hmm?” The boy stopped and turned towards him.
“Who are you?”
“Me? Hm. Because no one knows me at the moment, call me.... Noir.”
“Noir.... Um, anyway I want to thank you.”
“Alright, then I'll appreciate it if you don't tell anyone about me.”
“O-OK, I won't.”
“Good, I count on you.”
And that way, Noir disappeared from there.
...----------------...
“What does this mean?!”
I was upset and shouted inside the dark forest.
“I thought those bandits had a lot of money, so I could take it but I didn't think they were so poor.”
I let go of my frustration and now I'm calm enough. I can't blame those who are dead. But that name was really cool.
“Noir, yes?”
Words just came to my head. But I don't think it's a bad name, is it? Although only original but it remains cool.
“I think now it's time to go home.”
I immediately rushed off and returned home.
