(LAYING IN MY BED)

As I woke up from bed ‘ We’ll be moving today I almost forgot’ I thought to myself while drying up after I began to dress up I took my brand-new dagger as I walked down the stairs I saw some unfamiliar faces sitting,

The first one I saw was a man standing, Is olive-skinned man has a charismatic feel about him,

He has a long face, a small nose, and full lips. His pale orange eyes are large and he has thin eyebrows, His dark grey hair

And next to him was a woman with pale skin she has a leadership feel around her, with a circular jawline

She has a long black hair ponytail reaching her waist with bangs reaching her thin eyebrows

Combined with her ruby eyes which can send chills to almost anyone,

Anf after that came a woman with short blonde hair reaching her shoulder and curly bangs, Light blue eyes that shined beautifully against the sun

And next to her was Rhorand!, And dad “ Morning dad” while rubbing my eyes and fixing my hair “Morning Whit, meet my friends that will be coming with us” he pointed a the man “He’s name is Justin” and then pointed at the girl with blonde hair “shes Ciara” she lightly waves at me, I waved back

And then he finally pointed at the girl with black hair “Her name is Elthea” she responded with a quick nod to me, I nodded back “And you already know Rhorand” “Nice to meet you Mr. Justin, Mrs. Ciara and, Mrs. Elthea, Nice to see you again Mr. Rhorand” After that I bowed

“Not to be rude or anything but, May I asked why they’re coming?” I asked nicely “Our trip will take around a week to arrive at Elirawen and they’re going there to do a quest so why not” I remember Elirawen was the capital of Fortipatria

“Oh okay my name is Whitlock Barentos,” I said with a well-mannered tone

“Nice to meet you too,” Justin said while giving a thumbs up, “Good morning sleepy head”

My mother said behind me “Morning, mom”

After that, I help setting up the table while dad was talking to them, After setting up the table we began to eat after we finished eating we all gone outside, As they stand up Justin was taller than my father and Ciara was sound my mother’s height,

And Elthea height was around by the chin of my mother, Then I saw Justin’s, Armor it was very simple with no markings thin armor he seems to wield a thin two-handed ax, Meanwhile Ciara’s armor was nothing she fust has a wand which made me think that she is a mage and, Elthea’s armor was only a small chest plate for the front and back with a cape with a hood that was made with wool

And Rhorand was covered in armor with expensive carvings which made me think he made that himself makes me feel he’s a tank, As we got on the carriage we began to travel my mom Immediately fell asleep as I continue to observe the surroundings,

My dad was talking to Rhorand “What’s going to happen to your shop?” He asked, I completely forgot about his shop “My dad actually owns the shop he was just taking a break and I was just on duty” Rhorand answered

All I can hear was the winds blowing, Birds chirping, The horses walking and, Dad talking

But I manage to fall asleep resting my head on my palm, By the time I woke up it was already night time, I realized there was nobody here I sat up and look out of the carriage

I saw all of them talking around the campfire, I used this opportunity to escape so I can practice myself I continue to walk into the forest distancing my self around where they can’t see me and around which I couldn’t get lost

I saw an open spot where I can train but before I can get into my stance, I felt a presence behind me “What do you want from me” I said while releasing my killing intent “You’re sharper than I thought” the person hiding said after that I unsheathed my dagger

He continued to keep walking, Then I realized he was a she and it was Elthea “So you’re going to train?” She asked before nodding “Would you like to train with me?” I asked her

“Why not?” she pulled out a long wooden sword almost like a bokken even though it was made from wood I can see the sharpness of her sword

I got into stance and control my breathing after I controlled my breathing I charge towards I began to swing my dagger at her, But in a blink of an eye she already managed to parry it, I immediately backed up and put up my defense in two seconds she already was in front of me I manage to dodge her swing and thrust my dagger

But she manages to back up just in time after that we both charge into each other I was going to the same thing I did to my father, But before I could let go “Stop this!, Right now!”My mother was shouting from the side we both stop in our tracks

“That’s enough mister!” she said while stomping towards me and grabbing my ear and Ciara grabs Elthea’s ear and started to lecture her while my mom started to lecture me too’

After 20 minutes

We got back towards the camp, and dad and the others were already asleep so we took a sit and I quickly fell asleep resting my head on my mother’s lap, After I woke up I was the only one who was awake but Elthea was missing so I took a walk to sound a forest,

I saw her sitting on a large boulder and looking into a river I walked towards her “Can I sit here?”

I asked her, She nodded before sitting next to her on the ground “Not much of a talker, Huh” I asked her “I only talked to someone I respect” She answered “So you respect me” I said with a smirk

“Of course, After last night you’ve got my respect,” She said while getting off the boulder

“C’mon let’s go back to the camp,” she said while reaching out for my hand, I grabbed her hand and stand up, We continued to talk while walking towards the camp

“Morning,” I said to them while getting in the carriage, After that, We began to travel again while I and Elthea were just walking about battle strategies “How do you know so many strategies,” She asked, well I used to be a king on my past life so It’s kinda my job

“Books, Just reading books” I answered we continued to talk for quite a while until she falls asleep I continued to read books from my bag, Then finally fell asleep on my mother’s shoulder As I woke up the sun was already setting after some time we stopped and set up camp

“Whit can you get some twigs for the fire?” My father said “Sure” I answered, As walked into the forest I collected some twigs and sticks as I began to go back I heard something coming here so I drop all the sticks I been carrying and I unsheathed my dagger and got into my stance,

Then I realized it wasn’t only one hostile it was around 3 hostiles as they continue to walk towards me I saw three wolves around the size of me all of them began to charge at me
