Youth Knight

Youth Knight
I'm a Knight? III



___


It's been a while, but Adry hasn't come back. Was there really a knight who delivered bread?


I looked at Anika who was at work, then our eyes accidentally met, "Do you want more bread?", she asked and sat next to me.


The closer he got the more I fell for him, "I've eaten too much bread" I replied.


Even so, he still gave me bread, "Eat more for your body to grow!", it seems Adry's words are true I have to train this thin body.


As we were talking, I heard the sound of a horse carriage from outside, it looked like it was Adry.


Adry was seen entering the front room looking for us, "Come Adry, we're here" I said.


Adry heard it then came to us, saying, "Let me get the horse carriage put all the bread in now"


___


Anika, Adry and I moved all the bread from Anika's broken wagon to the wagon that Adry had brought.


"I'm sure it's all" said the exhausted Anika.


"Finally it's finished too. when it's just bread but if this much is heavy too!", respond me, just as tired.


Unlike Adry who looks ordinary, she gets on the horse carriage, "Reza, let's go home."


I got on the horse-drawn carriage with Adry's help. Adry thanked Anika, "Thank you miss!", it seemed that she did not know her name. Too bad Adry, I seem to be superior to you now.


___


When we stepped into the tavern, Mr. Dery greeted us, "Hey! what about the bread?"


Adry and I approached and sat down in front of Dery, while Adry picked up some drinks and took them to the table, "Relax dad, we've brought them, their train wheels are broken, that's why they didn't send it"


Mr. Dery glanced at me, "Reza help me clean these dishes"


"Well", I stood up from the seat, and remembered grandfather "by the way I haven't seen grandfather yet, where is he?"


"Just yesterday he left, he wanted to visit his family's grave"


"You mean he went to Venavo?", I asked.


"Yes", the relaxed answer from Mr. Dery, made Me and Adry surprised.


"Eh, you let him go alone!?" said Adry standing across the table so that his drink spilled.


Mr. Dery was shocked, "Of course it's not stupid, I banned it but he was stubborn! then I told Alister, Alix, and Carnell to accompany Grandpa"


Adry sat back down muttering, "Luckily"


"Look at what you've done!", Mr. Dery wiped the table.


Adry helped wipe the table, "I'd be more surprised if you really let him go alone"


It was natural for grandfather because he could only make money a few months back to be able to visit his family's grave.


___


I washed those dirty dishes, after tens of minutes, Adry called me, "Oi Reza, come here I forgot to say something"


Quickly clean the dishes.


"You've cleaned up all that?", asked Mr. Dery, "Yes I've cleaned everything", I replied, then Mr. Dery went to the kitchen, "Then serve the customer, I'll cook", I also serve customers, while approaching Adry.


"What?", asks.


"How much money did Mr Adipram give you?"


I tried to remember, "I've traded everything, 19 gold coins left"


He stood up, "Let's buy a horse for you!"


"Eh?", does he want me to be poor? "Sorry Adry, but I don't want a horse"


Adry sat back down and said, "You haven't heard from him? Mr. Pier said he'd train us to ride, shoot, sword. You're gonna need a horse because there's no way they're gonna lend you their expensive war horse"


I sat opposite Adry, "How expensive?"


Adry replied, "War horse is usually about 40 or 50 small gold coins"


I was surprised to hear the price of such an expensive horse, "Wait for Adry, I only have 19 small gold coins, do you remember!?"


Adry held onto my shoulder, looking me in the eye, "Reza this is your lucky day, I'll add it. A knight is obliged to have a war horse, remember our vows? protect our master's land, then how will you protect it if it goes slow?"


I sighed with a sour face, "All right then", after all, that's the money Mr. Adipram gave me and Adry.

Sernia city


17 July 1300


___


We visited the horse farm, "So what kind of horse do you want?", asked Adry to me.


"All horses look the same to me", I don't know what the differences are, which I know they work to ride.


"Then let me choose for you"


___


Arriving at the horse farm, someone who seemed to be a ranch owner approached us, "Hey, are you interested in buying a horse?"


"Yes we want to buy two good horses!"


The rancher opened the door of his stable, "Come in, find what kind of horse you want, I have dozens of horses right now"


We entered the stables, realizing that the smell of horse manure was everywhere so I had to cover my nose as I walked around the stables.


Adry stared at one of the black and brown horses that looked big, twice the size of Adry.


"Uncle, I want this horse" , he chose that big horse, it looks suitable for him.


The rancher's uncle approached Adry, "You sure? this horse is one of the best horses of my farm"


Adry showed me the bag of coins, "Yes I want this horse", then he took the horse out of his stable, "May I try it?"


"Yes sure", he led her to the large field next to his farm.


___


"Wait a minute, I'll get you a saddle", but Adry ignored him and kept riding the horse, so the farmer's uncle said, "Hey, riding a saddleless horse is dangerous!", too late, too late, he was already running freely around the field with the horse.


He tried to run free around the field with his horse. Riding a horse for a few minutes.


The horse he was riding ran so fast and looked strong at every step, as if Adry and his horse were fused together.


As the horse raced, it swerved quickly and smoothly. The horse he was riding on was getting excited, his nails hitting the ground hard as it sped forward.


"Who is that man?", the farmer asked me.


"My friend Adry, why?"


"Riding that horse requires a lot of physical exercise, which involves a lot of fitness exercises. If this was his first time riding a horse, then he needed to prepare himself first. Your friend is obviously very good at riding horses!", isn't riding easy? You just have to ride that horse and drive.


___


Adry came back, went down the horse and brought it to us, "Yes, this horse is perfect for me"


"Haha Mr. Adry, you're very good at riding that horse, I'm sure you're an expert horseman!"


"Thank you uncle, you make me flattered, it's just that sometimes I ride a horse to do my job"


"You're gonna be the best horseman, I'm sure of it"


___


Then Adry chose a horse for me, large in size but not as big as Adry's.


We brought the horse into the field, the farmer put a saddle on the horse, then I set foot on the saddle and rode the horse.


At first, I was hesitated by this huge horse, but I soon realized that riding it was easier as I imagined.


"Do you need help?" said Adry.


"No, I can",


It's my time to shine, I'll show you my ability.


This horse followed my orders and walked slowly across the field with ease.


But then, this horse started to overstep the line and tried to race faster but my grip was not so strong that it slipped off and fell off the horse.


Well, my back hurts
