Chapter 25 - Sunset

OUKI was shocked.

David immediately hit his stomach with the second sword.

"Tskkk" – ouki as he bled. But he was vigilant enough to quickly move back. He went few steps back and fell on the dirt. With his stomach bleeding. At that time only two people were watching. All others left the area, David immediately attacked again, Ouki used his swort to block David's sword from directly hitting his neck. One of the people who were watching the fight from a few meters distance Ran to OUKI, he had a cloth on his head as like a turban. David looked at that man and said

"INTERFERE AND YOU DIE"

That man didn't listen and Went to ouki for help, on his way, when he came close to ouki

David tried to hit him with both swords ina way that both swords formed an X shape ouki promptly stopped that attacked on the por man while laying down.

"I WILL NOT LET YOU , AAAAAAAAAAAA" SCREAMED OUKI As He used his full force to push him back, and he did so hard that he will on the floor as well. The poor man had with him a knife ,he threw that knife to the fallen david which struck him in his arm and he couldn't get up. He quickly went to ouki

"General Ouki sir , I'll heal you"

He removed the turban like cloth and used that cloth to tie it around his stomach which stopped the bleeding.

"you're a nice man….." – ouki

"I'll give you 20 Million hektes for this" – ouki

"I want nothing but respect from you,You're our pride" – The poor man.

Ouki closed his eyes and rested for a minute.

David built the courage and used his second hand to remove the knife from his arm , after removing he tore the other arm's sleeve and tie it around the injury. He was ready.

"Tell the Palace to send best of forces,this is an emergency" – ouki to the man who helped stop the bleeding.

"Yes sir"

"LET FINISH THIS UP" – David as he stood up again

"IT'S YOUR TIME TO DIE" – ouki

They both went again, this time the clashes were smart. Firstly David attacked the arm of Ouki, cutting it slightly, ouki was at a disadvantage because David had two swords. But ouki used his single sword to cut him under the rib and at the side of theouki.They kept on fighting for a while, the whole fight after the healing of ouki took 3 minutes and they were at their extent ,specifically they were tired and the strength they had left was also running out.

"Its over ouki".

"yeah"

David immediately Run towards him and tied to hit him in the heart. Ouki blocked it and gave him a smile David gave a smile back and quickly hit him with the second sword that went straight to his heart piercing it. Ouki put his hand on that sword and tried to push it back but he vomited blood from his mouth.to ensure his death David held him up solely with his sword.

I was a lonely child when I was young. I was born to the 2nd son of the Great Great General OUKI. My child hood was mostly swordfighting. That's what I remember, my memories are filled with those times. And don't remember much of anything else than that.

I was sitting in front of his small house when bullies came to my face

I only knew sword fighting

"Stupid guy, go run to your mommy cry baby"

When I heard that from the bullies I tried fighting them but lost and they beat me up pretty badly , when I went home my grandmother asked me what happened

"Nothing"

That's what I said to her. I cried in my room and screamed to myself

"I HATE THEM, I HATE THEM" I kept repeating that and went to sleep. My parents left me to my grandmother. They had some job they never told me about that kept them busy so they didn't have time for me and left me to my grandmother. That's what my grandmother told me. Few days later robbers broke into my house, they had swords , they stole most of the stuff and killed my grandmother, when I tried to fight them they kicked me and threw me , I couldn't defeat them. That day I realized that I have to be strong so noone ever has to go through which I just went through. And I meant that and I strive for it. For that I enrolled in the Townsvalley Army. First I became the troops on ground soldier. Due to Ruling family's internal issues they never gave ranks to people except top few. So I worked hard, The Kingdom was thrown into the hands of another King. Which changed the army and I got the general rank, and high salary ,a luxurious life, the king Belshazzar was nice, I liked him very much. He gave me the motivation I needed. I fought, trained and secured borders most of my life. I was a leader to many.

"OUR OUKI , HE NEVER LETS US DOWN"

Is what I heard from the crowds and troops whenever we were victorious. But I guess now is my time to go. I'm glad I did not die in a war, If that happened then I would've let down a lot of people.

He smiled when thought that as he was still hanging on David's sword.

Ouki smiled and a drop of tear fell from his eyes. David's inserted both swords into his heart and removed them and let him fall on the dirt. And escaped under 10 seconds.

The whole palace army cam there are found ouki laying dead.

"GENERAL OUKI" – Screamed a soldier as he saw his body.

"WHO DID THIS"

As the soldier was crying he announced in a loud voice

"GENERAL OUKI HAS BEEN SLAIN"

The surroundings were dim, the sun was setting and the area was quite. There was damaged building, Distorted dirt road, blood on the dirt road. And soldiers left and right witnessing the death of

The Great general ouki III
