The Lightning Swordsman (Book 2)

War

(Y/N) POV

I watch the trio as they shovel food into their mouths

"Are you sure you don't want some?" Angalo asks

"Yea I'm sure," I say, turns out that Garth literally ate more then all of them combined...honestly what a dick

Looking at Kent, Karp and Angalo they all are skinny, it must have been hard. From what I've heard. Garth sat around eating while they starved as they did stuff for him...I don't understand why they didn't stand up sooner

"So what's the situation here?" I ask

"Everything we need is in this cave, we can grow food and there's even a stream of water that runs through here," Karp explains

"I see," I say

"But I've noticed that the dark army has been gathering," Kent adds

" Dark Army?" I ask confused

"That what we call the forces of the dark territory," He says

"Ok, you guys said something about the Human Territory" I ask

"It's where we all came from," Angalo says smiling. It must be pleasant compared to this place

"Yes, we all have pleasant memories until we suddenly showed up here," Karp explains further

"Hmm," I mutter

Suddenly, I feel the air became heavy. I wasn't the only one to notice, Karp also reacted

"Say...what was that?" I ask

"It must be the gate, the seal must be weakening," Karp says looking at me.

"What does that mean?" I ask

"It means we might be able to go the human empire soon," Karp says as the other two get excited

"Ok, what's the catch?" I ask

"As I said, the dark army has been gathering," Kent says

"We will need to get past them....but I think I may know a guy who might help us out," Karp says

"I'll go meet with him," Karp says as he turns around

"I don't think so bud," I say as he turns to look at me

"I'll go," I mutter as I pass him

"Tell me where to go, and what's his name...ill let you know I can be pretty sneaky," I say smiling

"Ok, go north, his name is Vixur, but if you meet a woman called Lipia you can probably talk to her as well," Karp says as he starts explaining them. Vixur is the leader of the Dark Knights, he has a scar on his forehead and nose. Lipia is his lover, or so I've been told. She has purple hair and has a pretty face.

"Ok, I'll be off," I mutter as I exit the cave. I head north and after an hour of walking I see a dark castle in the distance

"Looks like that's the place," I mutter. There are guards of all sorts around the place...orcs, elf's, and giants? Eh...who cares

I will be extra careful to not be caught. I sneak into the castle. You can tell the dark forces are gathering, this place has tight security. I approach a corridor with a woman in it

"Come on Lipia, just kill Vecta and Vixur will be happy," She mutters to herself as she walks my way...Bingo. Ok, metal gear solid snake time. As she is about to turn the corner, I grapple her and cover her mouth with my hand
