Chapter 4: Encounter (III)

The knight picked up the flying axe with his strength. Instantly the axe, which had not moved, suddenly flew towards its owner.

“You’re done human… there’s no more chance” said the knight as he swung his axe.

The other knights began to gather and began to surround the moirai. 

2 archers, 2 swordsmen, 1 spearman and 1 axeman… fighting with them is a waste of time.

Suddenly an arrow flew towards moirai quickly. moirai who was trying to dodge was suddenly attacked by an axe-carrying knight. he swung his axe with all his might. moirai who was trying to dodge the arrow earlier, did not have time to dodge the axe attack. as a result he parried the attack with his short sword. moirai managed to change the direction of the attack, but the arrows aimed at moirai continued to appear.

“hey, look I don’t have any bad intentions here ok, I don’t have any connection with the holy empire so…” 

<WUSH>

Suddenly a spear swings towards moirai, he tries to dodge the attack but while dodging his leg is scratched by the attack. blood drips from moirai’s leg but moirai is still in a fighting position. 

“What a troublesome thing… I should have bought good equipment when I had the chance”

I don’t think I have a chance of winning against them, fighting 1 on 1 is hard especially against a group of trained knights.

with all his strength moirai ran towards the trees. the archer also attacked moirai with his arrows but was blocked by the shade of the woods, the knights immediately chased moirai into the woods.

“You cowardly human, don’t run” shouted one of the knights.

Moirai continued to run regardless of what was happening behind him. while running, Moirai saw blood on the ground.

“Well fate… whatever is going to happen is going to happen,” moirai said.

He changed his direction to follow the trail of blood left behind. not long after, the knight with the axe caught up with moirai and swung his axe at moirai.

<CLANG>

 Moirai quickly parried the attack, but because he was running, he had trouble parrying the attack. The small sword he was holding was instantly shattered and Moirai was sent flying.

Morai bounced into a tree with the corpses of human warriors who died in battle.

“Huh…why is this such a troublesome thing,” said the moirai who fell down in the trees. 

Holding my strength while defending and without hurting is difficult…. But what else can I do, if my identity is discovered, it’s ruined.

The knight also appeared from behind the trees with other knights. slowly they approached moirai with an intimidating aura.

The knight said, “Your time is over human, surrender and I will give you a painless death.” 

“Can we talk about it nicely, I have no bad intentions here, I swear” Moirai said with a tired face.

“Save your nonsense, Human.”

“You guys… can you listen to me first” said Morai.

He immediately took out a silver necklace with a raven symbol. but the knight continued to approach moirai regardless of the necklace.

“here”

“What a pathetic human” said the knight.

huh… I forgot that this necklace is already an antique, or even a relic?

Moirai said “Then there’s no other choice….” 

Moirai squeezed the necklace tightly, suddenly flames emerged from the necklace and revealed a solid and sturdy sword.

“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you,” Moirai said while forming his battle stance.

Hearing that, the knight captain immediately grasped his axe with all his might.

“No more playing around this time…” said the knight.

“essence of fire…. ignites” 

Instantly, the knight’s body was filled with a strong flame, and his axe was also burned strongly.

“Alright human… don’t let me down.” 

moirai immediately charged towards the knight. the knight immediately swung his axe to attack moirai but, instead of counterattacking moirai avoided the attack, and immediately rushed towards the archer. 

The archer frantically fired several arrows at the moirai but was successfully parried and avoided by the moirai. one of the swordsmen came to stop the moirai’s movement. the moirai immediately attacked the swordsman and swung his sword. the swordsman who tried to parry the attack, lost strength and made his sword fall. the moirai took advantage of the opportunity and kicked the swordsman in the stomach until he fell. the archer who saw the moirai getting closer, took out his small sword and rushed towards the moirai.

As the moirai approached, another arrow shot near the moirai’s head. The other archers were still targeting the moirai, plus the knight captain and the speared knight started to catch up with the moirai. 

Moirai immediately attacked the archer who was rushing towards him. quickly moirai parried the attack and took advantage of the opening and tackled the archer to the ground. when the archer fell moirai kicked the archer until he fainted. The knight captain behind moirai immediately swung his burning axe. moirai turned around and blocked the attack with his sword.

<CLANG>

“That sword… what kind of sword is that” said the knight captain seeing moirai’s sword was able to withstand his attack.

moirai also counterattacked the knight. moirai quickly swung his sword and made the knight lose his balance. he directly injured the knight’s leg with his sword. the wound given was not fatal but made the knight fall to the ground and could not move.

“Nobody moves… Nobody needs to get hurt here” Moirai said as he pointed his sword at the knight captain.

The captain’s subordinates immediately fell silent and put on panicked faces because their captain was threatened.

“Everyone put down your weapons… we’ve lost” said the knight captain.

All the knight’s subordinates immediately sheathed their weapons, and some dropped their weapons to the ground.

“Good… I don’t want any trouble here either” said Moirai. 

Instantly the sword that Moirai held turned back into a necklace again.

“You guys are just troubling other people, if you do this earlier there should be no need to get hurt, then I’ll excuse myself… ” Moirai said as he left the place.
When Moirai left, a soldier immediately helped their captain.

“Captain… are you alright?”

“I’m fine. He just scratched my leg.”

“Why are we giving up on that guy boss? I think we can win against him” asked a spear-carrying knight.

“Are you blind?… Didn’t you see the expression on his face when we were fighting earlier?…. He didn’t have any expression… I said nothing,”

“And also… that sword technique… I’ve never seen that sword technique in my entire life… especially since he didn’t have any killing intent in that sword technique… I don’t know what that means”

“Isn’t that great boss, if that person has no killing intent, then we will be at an advantage right?”

“It’s not that simple you shrimp brain, it’s because of that person’s intentions that we still survived the sword technique.”

“If that person had the slightest murderous intent we would have been instantly chopped into dice because of that technique…. especially that necklace… I think I saw it once before…” said the knight captain.

“I really don’t know what that human is doing here” said the Knight Captain.

The moirai moved away from the scene of the battle. It wasn’t long before a bit of sunlight could be seen, signaling that dawn had arrived.

Hah… What a troublesome day… moirai… i just want to all this troublesome end quickly
