In the woods.. There were a few tents standing. Right in the middle of the tent, the black ash from the former campfire was seen still burning even though the wood had burned out.
Some people were seen coming out of the tent. Some were walking towards horses and carriages, others were seen having conversations while laughing. From the look on their faces, it seemed like they had all just woken up from a night's rest.
Followed by the shining sun, the tent in that place was also dismantled. People who used to dress normally now look handsome with the armor they use.
In one of the tents that will also be dismantled, a woman came out dashingly wearing armor. It was the royal knight Inggram who took the task of escorting this group to the capital of the Nusantara kingdom.
He walked towards one of the horse-drawn carriages not far from his tent. When he came in.. He saw a man sitting while eating wheat bread.
"Mr Lingard!"
"Oh.. Suica!?"
Suica walked in and sat down in front of Lingard.
"This.. Tryin.. It's delicious loh!" Lingard pushed the plate of wheat bread that was in front of him.
"I'm full, sir." Suica refused with a smile.
"Come on.. You have to eat a lot."
"Hehe.. No sir. Thanks.."
"Oh yeah, how are you doing today?" Suica continued.
"As you can see.. I'm fine." Lingard poses like a bodybuilder in front of Suica.
Lingard's condition is already very healthy, if only not because he lost both legs at this time. Maybe Lingard is still in Kander city to defend against the demon army that will attack the city.
But because of the advice of Alista, a witch who is an expert in the field of healing. Lingard joined the entourage to the capital of the Nusantara kingdom in the hope that there, he could meet a great witch who could reconnect his legs.
So Lingard, in this group there is also Murd Londa Chaya and the knights who suffered serious injuries.
Suica himself is the leader assigned by Depone to lead this group until he arrived at the capital of the kingdom of Nusantara.
And this morning, their entourage will continue the journey after the previous break because it is very risky to continue the journey on a dark night.
The same day.. Somewhere else..
Another camp made by holy knights.
A place filled with flowers, there were different types of flowers decorating the place they were currently resting in.
Also seen the path that is passed by many horse carriages that then passed carrying goods. The road that seemed to be heading straight towards the Celestial Kingdom's capital.
While the tents they made for the break were currently on the banks of the river, they did so that they could more easily fetch water and cook food.
Although yesterday they had argued to stay another day in the city of Dermen but finally they chose to continue the journey. And that unimportant debate was enough to waste their time until they ended up in this place.
Gildarts was currently clearing their tent, one could say that it was the main task of Gildarts. It was not that Gildarts was diligent but that there was indeed no one else willing to do that.. What else Smits who prefer to be lazy while lying near the river flow.
While Pege.. He was standing, raising one leg and putting both hands in front of his chest, closing both eyes.
"Room.." Rinto yawns while burning the fish that Leo had caught before.
Not far from the tent.. Rebecca and Ivy were picking some flowers. They both look happy, what else Ivy who feels homesick with the world where he came from.
The world where his origin is indeed not much different from the world he currently resides, where the current ruler is the king and the nobles. Ivy himself is also a noble, therefore he is very familiar with the world where he currently resides.
The thing that distinguishes the Ivy world from the Neverland mainland is the existence of other races and turbulent wars. In the Ivy world, there is no race other than humans and also the world is classified as very safe because of the lack of war.
Being in the middle of flowers like this makes Ivy remember the flower garden that is behind his family residence. It made him a little emotional and unconsciously shed tears.
"Ivy.. You why?" Arthur who was also around the place accidentally saw Ivy.
"Eh.. Arthur! Nope, no.. I'm fine."
"really?"
"Yes.. I just miss my previous world." Ivy wiped her tears.
"Arrrrrthhurrrrr.." Rebecca approached while braking.
Arthur was confused to see Rebecca's behavior looking at him with an annoyed look.
"Nee..... You did Ivy cry like this?" Rebecca looked at Arthur.
"Well!"
"No, no.. Rebecca. No papa." Ivy smiled sweetly.
In the direction of that stretch of road, the entourage of several knights stopped.
"Well wow!! The holy knights apparently." A man in fancy clothes got off the train and greeted Arthur.
Arthur and Ivy and Rebecca turned to the source of the sound.
The blond man approached, he was a little fat. It seems like he is a noble.
"introduce.. I am Arnold Jonaseen." The man bowed while kissing Ivy's hand.
Ivy who is also a noble is certainly not disturbed by it, because he knows that it is the hierarchy of the nobles in greeting. While Rebecca who did not know about it, looked annoyed and stared at the man's cynicism.
"Oh.. Mr. Arnold." Arthur greeted back with a gesture of respect.
"It was a coincidence to meet at this place. I've heard the rumor that the holy knights are going to head for the Capital and I've also heard the news that Lord Arthur and his entourage have saved some villages from the restraints of the demon clan. It was incredible.. Haha." The fat man who was accompanied by a man beside him laughed quite loudly.
"Ah.. Yes, it is our duty, sir." Arthur politely responded.
In the place where the knights rest is indeed quite a lot of people who pass by using horses or horse carriages. But no one said hello because they did not know that those who were camping by the river were holy knights.
While Arnold who incidentally is a noble certainly knows the appearance of holy knights.
Not far from where Arthur and Arnold were talking.
Gildarts who had finished cleaning the tent now sat in front of the fireplace while eating grilled fish made by Rinto.
"Who is that guy?" Leo looked towards Arthur.
"From clothes.. Maybe he's a noble." Diana said.
"What's Smits?" Gildarts looked at the annoyance on Smits' face.
"If I see that for too long.. I'm gonna be sick of it." Smits.
When they paid attention back, beside that noble man, also stood a man who was not wearing clothes and was only wearing tattered pants.
The man next to Arnold was a slave..
The boy's body was full of bruises that were still flushed. He also looks thin until his spine is clearly visible from far away.
"That's slave.. I told you in this world.. Such a wounded slave is a natural thing." Rinto murmured.
While at Arthur's place.
"Haha.. Greatable. Real great.. Such is the holy knight." Arnold is seen amused by Arthur's story of defeating monsters and liberating a village.
When Arnold laughed.. Suddenly the man beside her fell down. Then be a plate of fresh fruit that he held also fell. The fruits were Arnold's breakfast which he had chewed while talking to Arthur.
He chatted while devouring the fruit, without even sharing it with Arthur, Ivy and Rebecca.
"Oi oi's.. Just be right. You dropped MY FOOD!!" Arnold became angry as his slave dropped the fruits.
"Pardon me sir.. I-I haven't slept in a week so I." The boy was seen prostrating and apologizing.
"Damn it... You have many reasons. Just die you useless base. Die up! Die up! Die!" Arnold stepped on the back of the slave prostrating at his feet.
While the boy continued to apologize.. He fell because he suddenly lost consciousness. For whatever reason, the slave master was forbidden to sleep for a month and he only completed the order for a week.
Even just a week of unreasonable orders he did, his body was already not strong. What else should he do within a month.
"Dead! Die up! Die!" Arnold the nobleman continued to step on the slave until.. The boy fainted in a terrible state.
While Rebecca who was getting angry was held tightly by Ivy. While Arthur with a flat face he can only see without doing anything.
"Damor... Basic useless." Arnold spat at the fainted slave.
"I'm sorry.. Haha. These lowly people are often troublesome."
"No, papa sir." Arthur replied calmly.
"Oi.. Lift this guy up." Arnold the nobleman shouted to two of his knights waiting near his chariot.
The two knights approached and raised the body of the slave. Even if noticed maybe the slave was already like a malnourished corpse.
"All right, Mr. Arthur, Miss Ivy and Miss Rebecca.. I hope we can meet again. Oh yea.. If you follow this path then you will arrive at the capital by noon." Said Arnold.
"Yes sir.. Thank you!" Arthur was still trying to calm down after what he saw.
"Miss Ivy.. Nice to meet you." Again, Arnold looked down and kissed Ivy's hand.
Ivy could only smile awkwardly without being able to resist it.
Arnold turned around and left the three of them in a chaotic mood due to the heartbreaking sight he saw.
"Damn, shit, shit..!" Rebecca cursed in annoyance.
"Calm Rebecca.. We can't do anything about this." Said Arthur.
5 Steps Arnold walked away leaving the three of them. Suddenly from the sky.. At high speed without Arthur noticing..
Duarrr...
The ground hit hard enough to leave a mark like a falling meteor. The dust from the impact blocked the sight of the three of them.
When the dust starts to disappear.. The three of them saw the nobleman Arnold Jonaseen died instantly with a body torn apart full of blood due to a hit from the sky.
"Huh!!" Arthur broke out in sweat.
"Eh! Ivy trembled for a moment.
Rebecca was silent without a word.
At present.. In front of them appeared a powerful figure that had once made one of their comrades die inside the Labyrinth.
That figure is Rever Block the sin of anger.
