two hours later....
Zzzzzzrrraaasshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......
“(ha.... ha... ha....., damn it..... My chest hurts so much....)” says Reinherz in heart.
Baron Reinherz then released his [Fear] effect again, Reinherz could be relieved again, Baron Raven continued to repeat his [Fear] by giving a little pause to Reinherz, who was not happy, Baron Raven trained this so that his son could counteract the effects of [Fear] when fighting an enemy stronger than him.
“workout today is enough to get here first, tomorrow I will continue again” said Baron Raven
Reinherz who heard his training had finished, Reinherz immediately fell asleep on the ground feeling very relieved, Reinherz finally able to rest after a long enough exercise.
“aaaaahhhhh.... finally finished” says Reinherz while sighing with his relief.
Baron Raven then stood up from his seat and looked at Reinherz.
“Basic...., just so you complain a lot, today is just the beginning, tomorrow I will do even harder” said Baron Raven.
“uuurrrggghhhh...., can you make my training a little lighter” complained Reinherz.
Baron Raven who heard it instantly touched Reinherz's forehead.
Plaque....
“aaaawwwww....” screams Reinherz.
“do not complain much.., you are a man, you must be strong to protect yourself as well as others.
“uuurrrgggghhh....., alright”.
After a few hours of practice, the sky does not feel orange, which shows the time is already afternoon.
“time has started afternoon, after this you have to rest, and recover your energy to start training tomorrow” say Baron Raven
“well dad..” says Reinherz
“then you go first, get ready for tomorrow, because the more training days you and mom give the harder”
“uuurrrgggghhh...” says Reinherz tone grumbling.
Baron Raven left immediately after that, Reinherz who was still lying still grumbled because his body was very weak after a long workout.
“uuuggghhh... shit, my body hurts so much, I have to rest in my room” immediately.
Reinherz then stood up and went straight to his room to rest and recover himself for training tomorrow.

Two days had passed. Reed, Avianna and Zerith and the party went to the royal capital of Oakleigh, the city of Edmund, they walked on horses as usual with no place to rest for the nobles, but because Reed was a merchant, Reed carried a horse carrying goods that Reed would sell in the capital later, these items were spices, healing plants, potions, potions, and the weapons that Reed has ordered in Zeke will be sold again.
The total departing people were 6 people, all of them were members of Night Hawk except Avianna, although Reed and Avianna were noble children, Reed and Avianna did not want to be spoiled, he said, moreover, Reed who was a captain of the Night Hawk, they would take turns keeping watch the night if they slept outside.
After two days of walking, they arrived at a village near the Klint region which was included in the kingdom of Oakleigh, Reed, Avianna, Zerith and his entourage stopped at the village because the day had begun at night, they plan to rest until tomorrow morning they leave again.
“We rest here until tomorrow morning” shouted Reed to the others.
When the others tidied up the items brought, Reed went to look for lodging, as long as Reed walked to the capital, Reed usually always visited this village, so Reed did not know the condition of this village, as Reed walked, Reed saw a grandfather standing in front of one of the houses, then he saw Reed, and Reed approached him, intending to ask if there was any lodging in the village.
“uuummm....., excuse me is there lodging in this village?” ask Reed.
The grandfather looked at Reed with an unworn look, like he was in trouble, but then he saw Reed as usual again.
“aahh..., I'm sorry young man, what I'm looking” said grandpa
“We are looking for lodging, is there lodging here?” ask Reed
“in our village there is no lodging, but if you want to rest, there is little land for you camp”
“ooohhh... well, thank you then”
“then follow me”
Then the Grandfather drove Reed to the place he mentioned earlier, when walking Reed with grandfather, Reed was curious why the atmosphere in this village was so gloomy, like there was a monster wanted Raid, though Reed knows here there are rarely monsters, but Reed thinks maybe this is the work of bandits, and the ruler of the Klint region can not be responsible for guarding the area, but Reed thinks this may be the work of bandits, Reed wanted to do it but he wanted to keep it at the campsite first.
Soon Reed and Grandpa walked to the camp.
“Here you can rest” say Grandpa.
“Thank you grandpa”
Reed then looked at grandfather again with a curious look.
“Kakek.., why is the atmosphere here so gloomy?, and earlier when I met grandfather, grandfather seemed to have a problem”
“ahahaha...., it's okay young man, I just daydream” say grandpa while laughing.
“uummm....., well then, I will go to my friends to get ready for camping soon, and once again thank you”.
“sama-sama young boy”.
Reed then immediately went to inform the others that he had obtained the land for them to rest in peace.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Reed walks around the village, Reed seems to have a bad feeling, even though the grandfather says fine about the situation.
But Reed saw a commotion where his entourage was waiting, there were four men carrying weapons such as swords and daggers, from their clothes Reed could guess they were bandits..
“Are you guys comers?, cluck..” says one of the bandits.
“Huh...?!, what do you want?” say Avianna
Then one of the bandits pointed a sword at Avianna who was talking to them.
“deploy your treasures if you want to congratulations”
Zerith and the others heard that they were ready to attack, and as soon as the bandit's eyes turned in the other direction, the bandit's eyes turned towards the old man who was following Reed from behind.
Reed then sees grandfather so frightened and trembling, and Reed's guess turns out that something is wrong with this village, and the problem is bandits.
“Kakek.., just relax let me take care of” says Reed while walking forward.
“Young what....”.
Reed walked over regardless of grandfather, and grandfather felt guilty about what happened, but he did not know that Reed was a fighter, the grandfather saw Reed just like a passing merchant to rest.
“oi... oii..., can you guys talk peacefully” said Reed while approaching the bandits with his hands on top.
The bandit sees Reed walking towards him, then the bandit threatens Reed.
“ahahaha....., does this stuff belong to you?!, quickly submit it now or you will know the battery....”
Whoooohossshhhh....
Reed quickly shot towards the bandits then grabbed the bandit's head and slammed it into the ground.
Dduuara......
“aaarrrrrggghhhh....., WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING STUPID ASSHOLE!, QUICKLY ATTACK THEM!” yelled the bandits Reed was holding.
Then the other three bandits raised their weapons and attacked Reed, but when they attacked, Zerith quickly raised his bow and fired two arrows at the bandits.
Whhoooss....
“AAAaaaarrrghhhh...” shouted two bandits.
Zerith accurately aimed at their hearts and the two bandits instantly died on the spot, but Reed still held one of the bandits on the ground and did not move.
One more bandit quickly attacked Reed who did not move in the slightest on the ground.
“AHAHAHAHA....!, DIE YOU....!” tell the bandits who will cut Reed.
Whhooooss.........
When another five cm of the bandit sword attacked Reed, the bandit felt as if his gaze had drifted and flipped over.
“HUH?!”
Bbbrrraa......
One of the Night Hawk members quickly slashed at the head of the bandit, the head of the bandit flew up and fell to the ground.
“Now...., I wonder what you guys did to this village?” tell Reed with a sharp look towards the bandits he dropped.
“aaarrrgghhh...., ba... alright I will tell” say frightened bandit.
However, the grandfather Reed met, then approached Reed and the others with expressions asking for help.
“do you guys have us?” say grandpa.
Avianna then took the initiative to talk to grandfather while Reed was still holding the bandits.
“Of course we will help, because grandfather has allowed us to camp, so please explain everything that happened in this village” said Avianna.
“Alright I'll explain” says grandpa.
Grandfather then explained in detail about what happened in his village, at this time his village was being colonized by a group of bandits named The Grey, which is now occupied by a group of bandits named The Grey, they were a group of bandits who liked to colonize the village by collecting tribute from nearby villages, and to date no one has been able to eradicate The Greys, not even the Klint ruler wanted to know what was going on in his area, and the villagers desperately handed over their possessions to the criminals, if they had no treasure, and the villagers were desperate to give up their property, The Greys would take women and make women slaves.
“Cihh...., you bastard” said Reed was upset.
Reed and the others heard it became upset, seeing the state of the oppressed weaklings, Reed finally made a decision.
“Hei bastard..., tell your boss to come here!, if you guys don't come I will kill you” say Reed to the bandits.
“Ba... alright.., let me go first.!” say bandit.
Reed then releases the bandits, and the bandits quickly run to deliver his message to his boss.
“so what are our plans now?” say Zerith.
“do you have any ideas brother?” say Avianna.
“aaahhhh...., I also don't know” said bigung Reed was asked.
“*haaa...* Basic...\, you've always bothered Reed” to say Zerith.
“we will do in the usual way, and make them afraid if they dare to fight Night Hawk” says Reed firmly.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere in a former fortress.
Braackkk......
“ha.... haa..., our boss has a problem” said the bandit who got hit by Reed.
“HUH?!, what's the problem stupid?!” say boss.
“There was a merchant who tried to threaten us, and they were very strong”
“Keep do they bring something?”
“Ya., they are like merchants and carry a lot of luggage”
“hehehehe...., it looks like we will get the loot this time” said boss with a wicked smile.
“and also they will threaten if the boss does come they will kill bos”.
Bos bandit kemudian terdiam sejenak
“HAHAHAHAHAHAH....!, dare they threaten the Greys, let's show who is the strongest, deploy a strong army, let them feel fear and despair, HAHAHAHAHAHAH...!.
