Youth Knight
Baron Robber V

The afternoon has arrived. I, Adry and his subordinates were keeping watch around the carriage of the horse-drawn carriage, some knights were coming with Sandrea, "Fast tar oil!", they were transporting a lot of tar oil from the carriage.


Adry asked them, "What is this for?", the knights replied, "This is the superior order", we stopped them but the knights prevented us and took it by force.


Then I was with Adry reporting this to Mr. Askari who was monitoring the battlefield in his seat, "Captain, Sandrea is taking a lot of tar oil!", said Adry who was approaching Mr. Askari from behind.


When Mr. Askari turned to Adry, I saw the knights carrying a lot of tar oil on both of them, they advanced despite being showered with many arrows and then flushed the wooden fortress with tar oil many of which were shot in the process.


Mr. Askari then looked at the battlefield, he looked extremely annoyed now, "Damn it, what are they doing!", the knights then carried bows and dipped the heads of the arrows in tar oil and set them on fire. Sandrea was seen behind the knights who were giving cues. Mr. Askari stood up from his seat towards Sandrea, before Mr. Askari arrived, Sandrea ordered, "Shoot!"


The iron tip of the burning arrow slowly burned and spread around the fortress.


"What the fuck!", cried Mr. Askari before the nobleman, "Shut up and look", the knights of Sandrea kept firing until the fire grew bigger.


The robbers who were on top of the fort were overwhelmed to put out the fire that had grown. I don't think they have any more water.


The gate opened, and a group of robbers came out of the fortress to save themselves.


Adry commented, "They showed their true identity, no discipline and loyalty. Just a robber playing a role"


The knight of Sandrea stormed and slaughtered the robbers, so that the troops led by Mr. Askari were affected and joined in slaughtering the robbers who ran in all directions forced to fight.


The nobleman said, "look, it's easy", then he went to the battlefield, like looking for something. Lord Askari followed him into battle.


"Hide, I must help Captain Askari!", Adry goes to help Mr. Askari with his subordinates.

The battle heats up, the robber leader slashes some soldiers. He tried to escape, then he ran towards me because there was nobody here but me, seeing that I then ran away.


But before he arrived, the robber leader was stopped by the knights and Sandrea who were behind the knights. The leader of the robbers fought the knights until he was overwhelmed trying to escape, fending off the entire attack in the end the sword slipped out of his grasp, "Catch you damn it!", Sandrea hit the head of the robber leader so hard that he was unconscious.


The life of the leader of the robbers lying on the ground was in the hands of Sandrea. Just as he was about to stab his heart, Mr. Askari rammed himself into Sandrea.


Sandrea was pushed down, then shouted, "Fuck Askari, what are you doing, he's our enemy!", he was furious.


"The battle is over, look around you the robbers have surrendered!"


The robbers turned themselves in, threw away their weapons. Some managed to escape.


"Kill the robber!", 3 knights who were near Mr. Askari were Sandrea's subordinates trying to kill the robber leader, but Lord Askari repelled the attack of the three of them while disarming them, "Don't fight, don't fight, let Mr. Pier decide"


Mr. Askari asserts, "I am the leader of this siege, you have no right to interfere!"


Sandrea stood up from where she had fallen, picking up the sword lying on the ground with her eyes fixed on the robber leader. Stubbornly he tried to kill the robber leader, as if he hated him or any other reason behind his desire to kill the robber leader.


"Stop!", cried Mr. Askari.


"Damn you Askari, don't expect yourself to escape from me later. I am higher than you, I will make you miserable because I have opposed me!", he spit on Lord Askari and then left the place with his private army.

Arriving at the city the sky was already dark. I took Adry back the carriage lent by Mr. Pier.


Fired the castle I passed by Mr. Askari who was holding a lantern with 4 of his companions. He stopped greeting me and took me for a walk around the castle. Of course I refused it, I wanted to rest, "Maa-", but he cut off my words, "Come", he walked into the castle.


"Then Reza" Adry left me.


If I go home with Adry and leave Mr. Askari, Mr. Askari's impression of me will be bad. I had to follow him somewhere.


"Have you counted all the remaining troops?", asked Mr. Askari to one of his companions, "I've counted them, 32 soldiers killed: 3 cavalry, 6 heavy infantry, and 23 men from the militia, 68 soldiers left"


Mr. Askari clicked his tongue, "If Sandrea had not interfered", then he gave the order to him, "Dissolve the troops, then report the remaining number of soldiers to Mr. Pier"


"Good!", then he left.


"Arezha, what you did today was really amazing. Your actions affect the team until they follow you. If you hadn't stepped forward, I would have died today, I owe you my life"


"Thank you, sir, you flatter me"


I honestly just wanted to save Adry. But thankfully the troops followed me and Mr. Askari rushed back to help me. If not, then I'm dead today too.


We were in a dark hallway two bodies wide, "What is this place?"


"This is the prison, I'll interrogate the leader of the robbers", he gives the lantern to his companion, "Hold this, show me where he's imprisoned", he walks in front of Mr. Askari.


We walked so we found a branching hallway, then we turned right, saw the light at the end of the hallway. We were approaching that light, there was someone at the end there. As we got closer we saw Sandrea along with her 4 subordinates each clasping a one-handed sword in front of the iron bars where the leader of the robbers was. Suspicious, was he still trying to kill her?


Sandrea was surprised to see us, "Kill them all!", Mr. Askari's companion who was in front was directly hit and stabbed in the stomach until he was exposed, "Retreat Arezha!", Mr. Askari protected me, and he was killed, then he kicked Sandrea's subordinate who was in front of him, he immediately picked up the fallen sword then killed his subordinate, "What are you planning Sandrea!", Mr. Askari stepped forward with his companion, fight with them.


I could only look from behind, keeping my distance. This narrow place was not favorable for the large-statured Lord Askari, making it difficult for him to dodge. Several times he was slashed, bleeding from his body.


Askari shouted, "Give up, you won't be able to win against me!", while Sandrea's subordinates fell silent guarding her position.


"You let our enemies live, you can't let them!"


"Quite the nonsense, let's end this!", Mr. Askari stepped forward alone slashing the remaining Sandrea subordinates while his subordinates had no time to help. Mr. Askari was seriously injured but his body did not let him fall.


Sandrea looked panicked, picking up the sword from her dead subordinates sprawled. He pointed his blade at Lord Askari using both of his trembling hands.


Mr. Askari stepped forward to look back at Sandrea, "Let go of your weapon, or you die"


Sandrea was intimidated by Mr. Askari, thus dropping his sword, "Good choice, take all the swords lying down!", he ordered to the companion of Mr. Askari, while he was still pointing the sword and staring intently at Sandrea.
