Chapter 186 - Filler Chapter: Securing the perimeter - Part 1

A few minutes later, at the royal stables, the carriages are getting prepared for their leaving. Horse riders are giving their horses some great grass to eat, while the knights, who are getting to their seats, they await their leaving for the area where it seems that the leader of the Yugara family, Big Father Yugara, is hiding and planning a new attack using the troops of another noble family that is on their side. The name of that family is unknown, for now, but the King believes it might be at the same location as where Yugara family is.

On the second carriage, Fiona gets on the carriage. with her armour on, and with the giant sword tied to her armour back. As she entered the carriage, she goes to the place where Marcus sits, and she sits next to him. Marcus is wearing his armour, plus, has his two axes tied to his back.

"Been a while, Marcus."

"Likewise." says Marcus to Fiona while he takes a look to see who are the six knights who will travel with them. "How is Judah doing?"

"Good. He is at home with Diana." says Fiona lying to Marcus because she cannot reveal where is Judah and what is he actually doing, after all, not every knight from here knows about the guild.

"You didn't brought him along to this battle?"

"Neither you did." says Fiona looking around the carriage, but she couldn't see Ron, the squire of Marcus.

"Ron is at his parent's home. They need to do some renovations or something like that. It has been quite hard you know. I never thought raising a warrior would be this difficult."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, Ron... He has started to act reckless, dumb, and never concentrate on fighting."

"Isn't he always like that?" asks Fiona at Marcus who is looking down.

"No." sighs Marcus. "He has started to act like that since rumours about Judah being a member of Gremory family. I do not know what rumours do Ron heard, but I do not believe Judah would screw a woman at his age, right?"

"Judah? To? What?" says Fiona trying to hold her laugh. "D-Do you? Baha! Hahaha! Do rumours say Judah is screwing women over?"

"They aren't true. Like I thought. You will probably have to say that to Ron. But on second, note, it would be a great idea to don't."

"R-right." says Fiona who managed to control herself from laughing at that funny yet ridiculous rumour.

"Alright, everyone!" says Amadeus coming to the carriages while he is carrying a long sword to him. "The carriages are ready and filled with knights ready to do bloodshed! All the carriages will deliver you to the village where it's supposed to be Big Father Yugara hiding! The village it is located close to Arges perimeter. As soon as you all got there, you will take the positions, and when we will signal the sky with a fireball, you will charge to the area! Understand?"

"Yes, sir!" yelled the knights from the carriage.

"And all of you will have to remain silent, understand?!"

"Yes, sir! Yes!" yelled much more knights to Amadeus.

"Alright! Now. You can all go! Good luck!"

And Amadeus is heading to on dragon, who is controlled by a dragon rider. On that dragon is also riding, besides Amadeus, two knights who aren't on the same level as Amadeus, Nathan and Ana.

The carriages leave the stale area from the back of the palace, one by one.

A few minutes later, the carriages got at a safe distance from the place where the meeting with the human-demons is taking place. Fiona, and with the rest of the knights are leaving the cart, and they go to a fence, hiding there and waiting for the signals of the people who infiltrate on the area. They cannot use any light thing to help them see the surrounding because of the night, and it will attract the attention of the people from the house where the meeting is taking place.

As Fiona looks on the sky, checking to see if the dragons could be seen, but it is hard to see those dragons in the night, especially with a naked eye. Marcus is also where the group of Fiona it is, and this man, decides to strip his shirt, and proceed to meditate. A few knights were surprised by this, but Fiona wasn't that surprised. After all, it is not the first time she sees Marcus topless and his tattoos all over his body.

As Marcus meditates, his tattoos proceed to show some light, and he says some unintelligible words. While he says those words, he opens his eyes, which shows a blue light. He stays like that for at least three minutes, and as he finished his meditation, his eyes became normal again. He gets up, he wears on his shirt, and he looks at the knights, and at the commander of them.

"I saw in the building nine assassins, Big Father and a Demon." says Marcus feeling nervous. "The demon is scary and he... he is something I have never seen nor heard from the Gods I have in my body."

"...Is the demon strong?" asks Fiona.

"Is a demon for fuck's sake." says a knight to Fiona. "You wanted to commit suicide, girl!?"

"Is two meters tall, and he has a four-meter fork stabbed in his back." says Marcus to Fiona feeling uneasy. "This is no monster, Fiona. This is an actual threat here. It will be hard for all of us to defeat it, or even capturing it."

"We will see." says Fiona looking on the sky, seeing the dragons approaching on the house where the knights who are listed to enter the house and capture the Big father. "Our mission it is to capture the Big Father. Not take on a fight with a demon."
