Chereads / Not A Knight And Not A Mage / Chapter 25 - Chapter 24 The Carnival

Chapter 25 - Chapter 24 The Carnival

Th night was dark and the lights were brightly lit. Many people roamed the streets. There were many stalls and fun activities happening. Laughter and joy was heard surrounding the place.

"Hey." Nitro nudged Arnos.

"Hmmm what?" He replied.

"You wanna ditch them and get some food?"

"Hahaha, we should tell them first."

Colin and Spyro were busy trying to win this huge beast trophy but they some how couldn't knock over all the cups. Spyro kept saying how it was definitely rigged.

"Pffft, you're no fun dude."

"HEY! We're going to get some food!!" Without waiting for a reply, Nitro dragged Arnos to a nearby stall.

It was selling some refreshing drinks and some wild fire chicken kebabs.

Nitro bought six, three for himself and two for Arnos. Clearly Nitro had a much bigger appetite than Arnos because the kebabs were huge. The sticks were very long and had about eight on one stick.

They went to find a place to sit.

There was a seating area in the middle of the carnival. They got there and sat down.

"You, kow, I've reen, wanting to, awsk you dis." Nitro spoke with his mouth full.

"You should swallow your food first." He chuckled lightly in return.

Gulp, he swallowed the last of his first kebab and proceeded speaking.

"Where are you from?"

"Oh." He said as he took a chicken off his kebab.

"I'm from, well pretty far from here. Like really far. It's a town called, Lendid Vill. Over there is a mage and knight school. Luminous Knight School and this mage school."

"Ohhhhh, I see so why'd you come here?"

"Oh, uh well.." Arnos started sweating a bit. Lucky for him someone shouted at them.

"There you guys are! Where'd you guys go?" Colin yelled at them sternly.

"We went to get food." "Dad."

"Don't call me that, we thought you guys were lost-"

"Or kidnapped!" Spyro said.

"Sorry, my fault. I agreed to get food with Nitro."

"Hmph, you guys didn't even get food for us!" Spyro said.

The three of them broke into laughter at Spyro's comment.

"What's so funny.?"

Arnos and Nitro finished up their kebabs while Colin and Spyro went to buy some food as well. Unlike Nitro and Arnos, they were both thoughtful and bought some drinks for them, in which Nitro and Arnos took guiltily.

As they finished their drinks, they decided to check out what all the big commotion was about.

They followed the crowd and arrived at a stall. There were many people and the line was very long. Colin had the courage to ask someone what this was about.

"Oh, well I heard these people are from Stanlight Guild. You know the famous Stanlight Guild!!! We're here to get their autographs!!" The girl said while fangirling and turning her head back to the front of the line.

"What a waste of time. What's so good about the Stanlight Guild, just cause they're a bunch of handsome, good looking guys." Nitro spat in jealousy.

"Cheer up, Nitro. It's alright. I've never heard of the Stanlight Guild, though."

"What?!" They all looked at him in disbelief.

"Wow you really have been living under a rock." Nitro said.

"That's not nice, Nitro. Well Silent, they're one of the Top Guilds. They're in the Top 10! They are famous because of their skill and how only good looking men are permitted in the Guild. They have many, let's just say. 'Girls' who love them."

"Oh, that interesting-"

As he was about to finish his sentence a man bumped hard into him and knocked him down. He hit the concrete pavement really hard.

"Oi! Say sorry to our friend! You jerk." Nitro called to the man who had bumped into Arnos.

"Oh?" The man said while rubbing his arm. It wasn't a man at all but was a boy who was around their age.

"Aw, I ran into this puny guy? Oh I'm so sorry, did I perhaps break your bone?" He said sarcastically.

A couple of people in the crowd laughed. Many by now had formed a ring around them, waiting to see what would happen next. Spyro helped Arnos up and Colin was frowning.

'Isn't this guy from the Stanlight Guild?' Colin thought.

"Look. Just say sorry and we'll be on our way." Nitro said, it was like he was trying to pick a fight.

"Oh, you want to challenge me? Don't you know who I am? I'm from the Stanlight Guild."

Some people in the crowd gasped and quickly shut their mouths. That confirmed Colin's suspicion and his frown grew deeper. Spyro was even worried. Nitro also didn't seem so confident anymore. Arnos on the other hand didn't appreciate people looking down on him. It reminded him of when he first joined the Guild.

"Not so brave now, are ya?."

"Jack. We don't have time, you know girls are waiting for our autographs. Cmon, scurry along now."

There were a lot of men who snickered at the part about the girls. Some looked at them enviously.

"But these punks-They-"

"We'll deal with them later. Let's go, end of discussion."

Just like that, they left. Of course Arnos remembered their faces. He'll definitely remember them in the future and make sure it won't happen again. Most of the group pretended to forget the thing even happened in the first place.

They went to go see some stalls. They split up, with Colin and Nitro. Arnos and Spyro.

Spyro and Arnos arrived at a stall that was selling some artifacts. Arnos didn't need any but Spyro has wanted to buy some. Turns out Spyro had forgot his wallet and Colin had been paying for him the whole time.

Arnos decided to help his friend for free even though Spyro kept insisting that he would pay him back.

Meanwhile with Colin and Nitro. Nitro held a fire elemental sword in his hand while a crowd had formed. A man wearing a robe, put his hands up and said.

"Woah, woah I mean no harm. You looked interesting so I wanted to see if you could block my attack."

Neither moved, Nitro nor Colin trusted whatever this guy was saying. Out of no where he had just attacked Nitro with his leg. Aiming for his skull, if he really was testing it would've been in a different place.

The other pair were having trouble finding the other two. They searched around all the places they could be but found no luck. Until they saw Nitro with a bruise on his face. He looked kinda battered and Colin was helping him stand up.

"What the heck happened?" Arnos said while rushing to hold up Nitro. Spyro followed behind closely.

"Some douche picked a fight with Nitro. Nitro won but suffered some injuries."

"We gotta go take him back to the Guild. He needs to heal."

"But I told the driver to meet us at 11:00pm. It's 9:30 right now."

They started arguing about what to do until Arnos told him he could run back. They didn't quite believe him but for Nitros safety they took it.

"You do know where it is right?"

"Yeah I do don't worry. I'll meet you guys at the seating area in the middle of the carnival."

"Alright be careful."

"Bye."

Arnos took off with Nitro on his back. Nitro didn't know that Arnos was this fast. He was a lot faster than he had imagined. The whole was there, Nitro was complaining about how he didn't need to heal and that he was fine.
