A few days after the boys left, the kingdom seemed restless, not because they had gone, but because of the vision Nykan had right after their departure. He found himself in the midst of immense darkness, he felt nothing beneath his feet, the air felt like pepper in his lungs, he felt suffocated, And while conversing with the king of the enlightened kingdom, the king himself issued a warning, telling his soldiers and trusted warriors to remain alert to any incident.
As the boys crossed a wheat field, Lei felt something on his arm, and soon fell from his horse. Mike heard the sound of arrows being fired, grabbed his shield, and ran to protect them While Drumon and Keny were trying to see where the arrows were being shot from, upon discovering the direction, they immediately went to Lei's defense and interrogated the shooter.
The shooter didn't sense Drumon and Keny's presence, so he was caught off guard by them.
- Damn fairies, they all deserve to die at the hands of our king.
said the furious elf, Then Drumon raised his sword toward the elf's neck and asked:
- Whoever sent you, answer if you want to live.
The elf paid no attention to what Drumon was saying, so he threatened back.
- "You are no match for the elf king's army, none of you are. You are merely miserable creatures and have no right to live," said the elf, blinded by rage.
- "Leave him tied to this tree until he dies and rots," Drumon told Keny, who promptly tied the elf with ropes made from the filaments of ancient trees; the finest ropes are made in the kingdom.used in hunting large creatures.
- "DRUMON KENY, HE'S NOT BREATHING!" Mike shouted, holding Lei's hand, Then the elf let out a sinister laugh, raising his head triumphantly as if he had won a great battle, even though he was tied to a tree.
- What was in those arrows, you bastard! Keny said, almost losing his temper.
- The worst poison on this earth, only the best wizard in the world can cure it, and surely no such wizard exists, ha ha ha ha...
Drumon He could no longer tolerate the insolence and wickedness of the enemy elf, so he punched him, knocking him unconscious, and at that moment, Keny let out a sigh of relief.
- What will we do if such a wizard doesn't exist? Our brother will die, we cannot allow this brutality.
Drumon let out a worried sigh, grabbed his sword, and then swiftly cut off the elf's head, And then he turned to Keny.
- First, we need to stabilize him and ensure he remains conscious and breathing. We'll have to summon Lord Hauk; only he can tell us what to do. He's Lei's last hope.
He said, walking towards Mike and Lei, who was lying on the ground with a cloth under his head. He was breathing very slowly, and the movement of his chest was almost imperceptible.
- Who attacked us? Mike asked, placing his hand on Lei's chest to check his breathing.
- He was a mercenary of Hyker's he said there was poison on the arrow. Now we have to summon Lord Hauk.
