Samurai Around The World #43.

I and the others walked along a small path to an important place. We walked in distance with each other just in case something happened. I was in the middle row and the one behind me was Joseph. I continued to walk according to the path written on a piece of paper given one-on-one by Allan which contained the fastest route and marked also the guard tower or something like that along the route the fastest, in order to be on guard from afar.

Mr. Mack also walked ahead of the group and was followed by Mr. Mark, Mr. Zack, Lowenn, Guzz, I, Joseph, Saint, and Allan at the rear.

We walked through the dark forest. The moonlight is blocked by the branches and leaves of trees because of the height and bushy trees in this forest. While walking through the dark forest, me and the others only used a small flashlight placed on the head. Because it is considered enough to use a small flashlight and also so as not to look too flashy by the enemy.

“That's a great tree here. The moon was not visible because the twigs covered it. And strangely enough in the middle of a forest like this there is a small road and it is still good to go through like this. Means this path is still often used to pass soldiers in the forest huh Girou? Because if it is not used, it is usually covered by weeds and bushes even” asked Joseph to me who walked in front of him.

“Yes the possibility is true. It can also be used during a battle or how. Because it can be a pretty good hiding path as well. But I don't know, I just walked down this narrow road. So I can not conclude many” I also answered as I know.

“Not when you infiltrated yesterday, you went down a road like this too right? You will also go into the forest” Joseph also asked to make sure again.

“It is true that I passed a path like this, or a path in the forest. Only this time it was different. This path we pass is narrower and has more air than yesterday. I don't know what air is like, gripping or scary. But I just felt something different. Not only the size of the road but the hawanya also” I also issued a fairly confusing answer because I myself was still a little worried.

“If about the narrowed path I can understand it because this path is very narrow. But what is that more like? I still don't understand it.” Joseph was still confused.

“I also don't know what that feeling looks like Joseph. I just felt there was more air than yesterday” I was even more confused to explain it to Joseph.

“Ya. Indeed, if the problem of such feelings will be difficult to explain and describe. Yes, now refocus again just”

I also agreed with Joseph and tried to eliminate the feeling of confusion earlier.

We walked for about 45 minutes and the view was the same. The wilderness with its crickets. No sign of our purpose has yet been found.

“Those signs still don't exist? We just stared at the tall trees. Is it really the path will continue like this Allan?” saint's question to Allan was heard by me.

“Possible path will continue like this Saint. I got this route from the information systems they had. They sometimes keep some files containing the streets that they often go through for various needs. So I guess I've got valid information for this. We just follow this path” Allan said answering Saint's question.

“Ya already possible we have to be patient”

5 minutes later, everyone rested because they were tired and filled up to continue the journey.

“Possible after this we will pass an intersection. There are two options later, which is to pass through the intersection that enters a cave. Or the other intersection will pass the same road as this again, the narrow path bounded by tall trees and bushes on the edges of it” Allan also tells about the road that we will pass after this rest.

“More quickly through where's Allan?” I asked after Allan explained.

“If the problem is faster, we will go into the cave. If the problem is safety and avoid worries, it may be better to cross the other one. All have its advantages. If I think because we are also chasing time, so we go through the cave,” Allan also prefers to enter the cave because it is faster than the other path.

“Yes I agree with your proposal Allan” Mr. Mark nodded in agreement.

The others just nodded.

“Good if all agree. We will directly continue the journey after all finished break”

A short time later, after completing the energy and power and felt all was ready, we continued the journey.

After walking for a while, we finally encountered an intersection. Just like Allan said. Two branches, there is a cave mouth on one branch that like to welcome us to enter it, and there is a narrow path extension on the second branch.

When in the cave, the atmosphere in there is quite gripping, maybe because of the darkness of the night and the forest is added again by the darkness of the cave. Fortunately some of us carried torches as lighting tools in the cave.

The cave is quite long. We reached the end of the cave 30 minutes later. After coming out of the cave, we were greeted by a road that was more spacious than the one we had been on.

We walked together again until we finally found a line of trees that were taller and bigger than the other trees.

“It seems my estimate was correct. Hopefully the possibility behind this tree is also the same as what I described earlier” I also muttered happily.

But we ran into a new problem, the road we were on was deadlocked. It was covered by that tall tree.

“Aw! This road is dead end. Blocked by this tree. How do I continue this journey?” joseph asked in a panic.

“You just look at the map provided by Allan. There could have been a follow-up line”, Mr. Mack suggested to Joseph.

Joseph also took a paper describing the route map tonight.

“If on this map the path we are passing at this time there is another continuation Sir. And it is not written that there is a barrier like this tree. Is this map Allan right?” Joseph asked about the truth of the given map.

“The map we all hold I got where the information about Darkness is. And I got it pretty hard and long. And the information I usually get about Darkness is the same as this map information is. So the map you're holding is definitely Joseph!” allan said with a high tone.

The situation became tense as well.

“Already. Instead of us fussing about this dead end, we better find a solution to continue our night mission today” Mr. Mack also tried to calm the tense situation.

“Ya maybe it's better” Allan was calm again after almost triggered his emotions earlier.

We all approached the tree line. There could be another path behind it.

I also looked closely at the rows of trees that were in front of me.

“Hmmmmmmm no strange sign yet that I found” I walked again to pay closer attention.

Yoke! Yoke! Yoke! I knocked on the trunk of one of the trees to check if there was anything strange.

My hands continued to knock the trunk of the tree from one tree to another. But they all make the same sound. There is no big difference.

“Where is the exit?” I still wonder in my heart.

My hands continued to knock the trunk of the tree from one tree to another. But they all make the same sound. There is no big difference.

I looked again by walking from the other side while looking at the surroundings.

And as I walked, suddenly something happened.
