The Story of the Wind Wanderer
A Boy #92

Rapid footsteps rang out, and a young boy dressed as a country boy ran alone amid the dense vegetation of the forest in fear. It was not known what the boy was trying to avoid, but he appeared to be running from something that was chasing him. His breathing was wheezing, but that did not make him stop his two footsteps, continuing to run past the large trees within the forest.

But unfortunately, the step of the boy had to be forced to stop because of a large root that crossed in front of him, and he did not pay attention to the root so that he stumbled and fell to the ground. The sound of the fall was very loud, even his body had hit one of the trees quite hard. So loud the sound fell from the boy, making a traveler who happened to hear him also come to the source of the sound. The traveler was Altezza.

From behind the bushes, Altezza saw a boy who appeared to be sitting on the ground holding his bleeding knee. He immediately approached the boy, and confirmed his condition up close.

"Are you okay?" altezza asked, then checked the wound on the knee belonging to the blond boy and had both beautiful blue eyeballs.

"Don't approach me, wanderer, or you'll get in trouble ...!" said the boy, which of course the answer from him made Altezza confused with what he meant.

But the confusion experienced by Altezza immediately got an answer when a group of bandits emerged from behind the trees and surrounded himself and the boy who was still sitting in a wounded state. Spontaneous Altezza drew his old sword neatly sheathed, hanging on his waist.

"Give the boy to us!" said one of them, a man. Their identities were covered in ninja-like clothes that covered their bodies, as well as masks on their faces, revealing only their eyes.

"Better stay away from him, or you too will be in trouble with us, O wanderer ...!" the other man was standing right next to the first man, but with one hand carried a sharp dagger.

Altezza stood in front of the boy, and glanced at the boy who looked still grimacing in pain, even looking like crying visible from his two teary eyes. Clearly, even Altezza's eyes could see that the people around him were not good people. There were good people who were dressed suspiciously like them, covering up identities, and they appeared to be carrying sharp weapons, as well as chasing after the boy.

"What does it mean to be a wanderer with no problems encountered in the middle of his journey, right?" sahut Altezza, looking relaxed and smiling. The man dressed in gray and in black robes seemed to be reclining his sword, and looked at the people around him with his magic eyes.

The bandits looked normal, ordinary humans, without possessing or storing magic power, that was what Altezza's two magic eyes had briefly seen. They were just ordinary bandits who only made use of sharp weapons as well as other physical skills.

"What did you say ...?!" asked the boy who looked still sitting behind Altezza with a slight moaning intonation to endure the pain.

"Stop that guy, and we'll take the boy who's behind him ...!" tell the first man out loud.

At the same time after this statement was made. A group of bandits numbering around six instantly threw the small-sized sharp weapons they brought towards Altezza and the boy. Altezza did not really understand and know what things they were throwing, but it all shot very quickly towards him, and it was certain that he would injure himself very easily if he was just silent.

The gusts of wind slowly grew stronger, centered and created a protective barrier very quickly around Altezza and the boy who was still sitting behind him. The created wind blew very fiercely, and easily reflected all the small objects that floated towards the two of them. Not stopping there, Altezza raised one hand and created a small wind vortex over his palm, before then extending it forward and fusing it with the windshield he created.

A wind attack that was quite powerful created, hit the bandits easily, and made them hit every vegetation in the forest. With just one strike, they were made into a mess. The bandits then chose to flee, although there were some of them who were limping after the attack launched by Altezza.

Altezza did not want to chase and capture them, especially when he remembered they were just normal humans who could not control magic. He chose to neutralize the magic he was using, before helping the boy he had just saved.

When Altezza turned around, the boy seemed to stare at him with admiration, and fell silent. The mouth of the boy also looked slightly gaping, after witnessing something great before his eyes.

"You okay?" altezza asked as he waved one hand in front of the boy.

The boy smiled broadly, "you're really heba-"

"Hhh ...!! Hmc ...!"

In order to jump for joy, the boy sat back on the ground grimacing in pain, clutching his bleeding knee. He almost forgot that he was hurt. Altezza sighed and appeared to smile a little, put down the backpack he was carrying, and took out some wound medicine from inside there.
