NIRVANA The Legend Of Samurai
CHAPTER 4 - Alisa & Nirvana

The northern Amarta region.

Altaraz Forest - Alpine mountains.

That morning all the soldiers were busy guarding the middle of the forest area, the rest were patrolling the cottage courtyard. One of them stood on a wooden tower.

In an old cottage, a pair of guards were seen standing on the side of the door of the middle room. The sound of the sound of steps accompanies the arrival of a pair of teenagers with steel ornaments with a symbol of phonix on the side of the chest.

A sword rests on the back of the man named William, while a long sword hangs on the waist of Alisa.

The blue beads of the two guards observed every movement of a pair of people who were about to enter the middle room, letting the door leaf be pushed inside. The look in Alisa's eyes forced the two guards to stiffen the body as she walked back to the Knight in front of her.

A middle-aged man welcomed their arrival. The man was named Steven, a leader of the army of altilleries who guarded the border region in the northern part of the Amarta region.

The short hair was neatly shaved with a charming thin mustache, adding an unusual good looks to a squad leader. Captain Steven was seen wearing a green silk shirt with a doublet jacket, as well as tight brown hose pants.

The man sat leaning against the back of a chair, facing directly against the two knights of Amarta.

"What do you need to come to me" Steven's green bead glanced left and right, coinciding with a pair of teenagers sitting in front of him. "Lisa, William... Try explaining."

"Well," William nodded slowly. "That morning Alisa and I were patrolling under the slopes of the Alpine mountains, more precisely in the northern area adjacent to the elven settlement. At that time, Saya and Alisa accidentally found a dragon carcass with a head separated from its body. I believe that our findings are a step, given that the Aster dragon is difficult to defeat."

"What kind of spells do you find there as evidence, if indeed the dragon was killed by the elves?" steven asked, his eyes looking directly at William.

"Some arrows on the body and left eye of the dragon" said Alisa.

A pair of bent elbows on the table, with fused fingers as chin supports. Steven paused for a moment to begin making reports on the palace.

"William, Alisa, go to the village settlement where the elves are. And look for accurate information about the mastermind behind the dragon's murder. If necessary, take the defendant to this post, so that I can ask him something as a report to Commander Leona at the palace."

Steven's last sentence jolted the alertness of a pair of teenagers to immediately rise from his chair. Both of them simultaneously bend the left elbow with a finger fist that touches the right chest.

"Ready Captain!" william and Alisa at the same time.

One outstretched arm took out a red feather on top of the ink bottle. Without paying attention to the two teenagers, then Steven took a piece of paper on the table. "Digest all the complete information from the village of Altaraz, and make sure you return with the main perpetrator."

"Ready-done!!"

A pair of knights immediately turned around and rushed to leave the room. While Steven's thin smile ushered in their departure until the door was tightly closed by the two guards.

"May God be with you..." Steven muttered softly before scraping the ink on a sheet of white paper on the table.

*****

The Altaraz

The sound of footsteps accompanying the horseshoe race at dawn was increasingly greeting, revealing a pair of knight horsemen sitting on the saddle.

On the way to the village, Alisa drives her horse faster than usual, letting a cold wind blow through her hair. While William drove his horse faster to keep pace with Alisa's horse. The two are racing each other towards a village settlement located under the foot of the northern mountain Altaraz.

Alisa saw a gray smoke puff between the growing trees. Until finally showed a vast grassland flanked by hills at the foot of the mountains.

Residents who are classified as beautiful with fragrances of flowers in every corner, as if to disappear because of the smell of rancid that pierced the bark of Alisa's nose. Dozens of residents around lay covered in blood, and not a few of them who died.

Some in white hoods were busy treating some of the injured. Even Alisa saw a mother who seemed to groan in pain, rubbing back the back of her son who is now gone.

Alisa took a breath after getting down from the saddle chair that was on the horse's back. The girl had circulated her gaze in a number of directions, observing the ruins of the residents' houses, as well as the rubble between them.

A crowd of elves ran to help a woman who was crushed by a piece of wood from the ruins of the house. While William was seen dealing with a number of residents to ask about what happened in the village settlement.

I don't know what they are talking about, but Alisa's view is now diverted to a young man who is still wearing a white shirt among the crowd.

Altaraz village is relatively simple with house buildings made of pine wood, and natural stone around it. While small chunks of stone appear to decorate neatly along the path, dominating the elegance created, on the flowers that grow in the courtyard of the people's house.

Alisa walked among the residents who passed by, trying to get close to a young man behind the crowd of people who flocked to help each other. The beautiful girl poked a smile as she stepped up, reflecting the hospitality in her identity as a knight of Amarta, who was a servant of the country.

At that time, Alisa saw a young man who was believed not to be an elf, but a human who was crouching in front of several children. A charming beautiful smile featuring one-armed outstretch with the grasp of a flower in hand. While Alisa did not dare to get too close, she simply observed the treatment of a young man in a white shirt in the presence of some elf boy there.

"Samurai warrior, what's your name?" The girl is seen taking a red rose from the hand of Nirvana. "Where are you from, and why are there humans helping elves?"

Nirwana fingers slowly touched the surface of the girl's cheeks. His eyes reflected the sunlight.

"My name is Nirvana, and my job is to protect all of you, hmm?"

The smile instantly expanded on his lips, creating a different touch on the pair of people there.

Alisa breathed. The two whose hands were still clad in steel plates appeared to be folded in front of the chest. His ears listened to every word, as well as the glare of the eyes that continued to observe Nirvana's body language.

The little boy—elf was running around the body of Nirvana. While the little girl in front of him was seen kissing the red rose petals given by the young man.

"Nirvana, Nirvana... Tiara's your girlfriend, huh? But I'm prettier than Tiara..." The little girl hugged tightly wrapped in the white shirt. "If I grow up, I want to be the wife of a knight like Nirvana..."

The young man could only smile while scratching slowly at the back of his head. "Gosh, hahaha... There's just one."

One boy next to him tried to demonstrate the movements of Nirvana, while pulling out a sharp blade of katana with a stick of wood. "I am Nirvana, a samurai warrior exterminating the Aster dragon from the village of Altaraz. O dragon! Finish your history."

Nirwana nodded slowly. "Waaah... You're so great, you can mimic my dialogue...."

"Yape! Because I was—" The instant the boy stopped his speech. He was astonished to see a knight who appeared to be standing on his back to Nirvana's body. "Look! There's a knight of Amarta. Nirvana, behind you."
