Avalon Knight's
THE REAL JOURNEY

In a dark and damp room accompanied by several torch lights. Only some of the rooms were closed, while others were open and empty. In the darkness I could not see clearly all along what was in this place of detention. Or how many rooms there are in it.

Dark, cold and damp and this unpleasant smell made me want to immediately shout to the bodyguard earlier. I accept! I accept the offer! why am I stuck in a place like this?!

Slowly I got used to this kind of atmosphere. Some objects such as chains, wooden beds, walls of prisoners and much more. There was a large piece of writing that seemed to mock me...

..." When you refuse comfort, you get suffering. "...

Reading it I snorted annoyed at the writing. Of course everyone would choose with comfort if the problem was that simple. But what I'm thinking is not that simple

In the silence now, I thought about whether there was anything better? thinking back to my past or a life like Shemmer? ah, Shemmer's life.There was something in his eyes that made him so excited, blazing all his life was an adventure to see extraordinary things.

Slowly what Shemmer had told me came back to my mind;

" Our enemy is the kingdom of Azmaveth. There is not a single human being who is not so horrified, imagining their sting? the center of the kingdom is under the bowels of the earth. That place must be terrible. But no one there can come back to tell his horror. Previously all humans had to go there when the time. Everyone will be taken and taken away, also forced to serve or become slaves in the kingdom of azmaveth. Everyone is no exception. But all that changed, until the King of the kingdom of Avalon himself intervened, whose land was far up there, descended to earth. With a mission. The azmaveth kingdom. "

" But the thing is, he is eternal, while others can enter azmaveth only impermanent human beings. Eternity and death cannot be found, if he enters there, it means that he ends his eternity. It is the same as opposing his own eternal nature. "

" You know what he's doing? He stripped of his immortality and glory to be able to enter there, enter into the heart of the kingdom of azmaveth! his knights could do nothing to help him, for they had no ability to forsake their immortality, so much so that King Avalon's love for men was so great. Until He transforms himself by becoming equal to the impermanent nature of man to face the kingdom of azmaveth alone. "

" You know what's going on? deep within the core of the earth, He fought alone against the whole kingdom of azmaveth. Millions of soldiers and black knights make sure Azmaveth is defeated alone! Imagine, he was alone, alone fighting. In three years he defeated the Azmaveth kingdom. And seize all the keys of the enemy's gate. "

" And now the knights stand guard when the power of the azmaveth returns. They were now drawing up the power to be able to seize those keys again. Our job is to contain and defeat and destroy them. "

Hmm.a really amazing story. If only I could be one of the knights like Shemmer. Oh King of Avalon. Release me right now, and allow me to serve as one of your chosen knights King Avalon, even if just being a common knight is not a problem for me. Make the rest of my life useful, your tool.

How foolish and childish is this thought of me. It's possible that Shemmer's story is just a figment of the legend. Even if the help was as I asked, it would not be as immediate and sudden as my daydream and I expected.

I sleep in this wooden bed, in the grip of the steel chains that surround me. I'm sleep deprived anyway. Who knows tomorrow by king Naham changed his mind and I decided my choice to settle here. Let me enjoy the loneliness and solitude tonight.

In this kind of silence, all I could hear was the sound of my breath, the growling sound of my tummy rumbling and the sound of my own heartbeat. The rhythm of the beat is getting more and more real in this silence. And slowly the rhythm of that beat becomes like the rhythm of a footstep. Maybe my feelings. I'll just go to sleep.

But the sound of footsteps is getting clearer and more real. The sound of heavy footsteps grew closer and closer. And it stopped right in front of my cell door. Maybe it was Naham's bodyguard, but..why did it come back so soon? I don't know what the strange king wants. Want to give comfort to his people, but also like to chain and shackle people who reject him.

" TSINGG'S....GUBRAKKS....KRAKK!! "

Suddenly I heard a very surprising sound, accompanied by a split and collapse of the cell door into two parts. Thumping on two different sides. Debpun rose due to the fall of the big cell door. And it made my gaze vague especially the dungeon room so dark. Behind the dust of the split door, I faintly saw a person coming towards me with a sword in both hands.

And the commotion came from the rooms around me, it turned out that there were also many who were locked in prison, the same fate as me. They shouted for release and accepted the king's offer.

The figure did not care what was happening around him. Slowly he entered my cell and stood before me....It's Shemmer!

" Now should you choose comfort or come with me?! "

" What are you doing here? How did you get in?! " appalling astonishment.

" Simply select!! MAKE DECISION!! " it was as loud as anger and repeated the question.

" Convenience is not the end of my life.I choose to come with you, "I said a little nervously.

" You made a choice! "

" Wushh..switchh, wushhh, krakkk "the sound of the sword slashing several times quickly and the cold steel shackles that were mounted on my arms and legs in an instant were all split apart!

" Come with me, we don't have much time.." he immediately turned around. As I rose up in astonishment, seeing these iron shackles slashed so easily. How'd he do it?

He walked through the hallways I had just passed. The atmosphere of the passageway was quiet without a hitch, whereas I was very worried that in case I met the king's bodyguards, there would definitely be an exciting battle. Considering I only carry a multipurpose knife that I always hide in the bag behind my clothes.
