Chapter 11 - Chapter:11

running till my feet couldn't carry on anymore, I knew that at some point I have to face them, the further I go the closer their steps get to me.

Right now there is one horse after me and the rest are a bit behind, I guess it's that soldier, he is able to track me down even with invisible spell I have on.

And in a moment I found my body being shackled, tied down in chains not being able to move any further, I wouldn't say I wasn't terrified, however I tried not to panic as much as possible at least to control my power a bit longer.

Using a great force to break those chains, my body was burning like its set on fire,

A black aura surrounded me breaking the chains off, however my strength was already getting down, I knew I wouldn't last long.

With the golden eyed soldier preparing to cast shackle me again with his magis the rest had already arrived.

_huh their eyes didn't heal.

_"YOU DAMN BITCH, YOU DARE TO ATTACK THE KING'S SOLDIERS! "

I can see clearly that his left eye burns didn't heal, that probably means it's blind now

_Does that mean if I attacked their eyes again I will have better chance to run away?

_" DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING AWAY FROM US"

_no, they probably put a magical shield on them, I only have one chance.

And in a seconds the new chains were already forming around me, moving my hand aiming this time at the horses eyes I struck my black flams.

And this time I really got away with it, and after minutes of my escape I couldn't sense them any longer, Its like they really didn't come after me, no it's like they went away.

_d did they really give up..... no, I'm sure they won't let a dark magic user go away like this, I can't let my guards down.

That's when I realized that I'm in the path of a west hill that was known as the den of alot of wild animals, however it was near the town's entrance.

_maybe going up will give me a better view about what they are really planning,

I went and I really wish I never did.

The closer i was getting the louder the noise did, screaming, children's weeping, swords clashing, and.. Blood scent.

My heart was pounding, and a chill ran down my spin when I saw... what's really happening in the town.

A flaming fire is eating up houses, kids are being taking by force and people getting slaughtered, blood running down like a running water on the ground and swords shining with blood in fire light.

Losing the strength in my legs I fell down broke in cold sweat with my heart about to burst out.

_ I.. I didn't know its this terrifying... Is this how things supposed to be?!

It was written in the book that soldiers would take kids by force and kill their parents if they refuse to hand them, and burning villages for fun sometimes , I knew it already but... But I never thought it would be this horrible!

_ that's.. that's a massacre!

Is that really the Emperor's orders?! Does none pay a mind for those live beings?!

Breathing heavily, I was going insane till that moment hit me.. leaving my whole body numb.

My mom was getting dragged by hair to the centre square and blood covering most of her clothes, and that soldier who was holding her rised his sword aiming at the powerless figure in his hand.

I can say that I totally lost control over my body, I found myself using tolerance to be in the town gates running towards my mom

_"MOM! NO DON'T TOUCH HER! DON'T "

And hopelessly.... I was too late.

The sword was already peircing into her heart leaving her lifeless, with her body soaked in blood, she couldn't even look at me for the last time, and now her eyes wont look at me anymore.

Running unbelieving my eyes I couldn't hear anymore sounds around me, I felt like time has stopped moving at this moment and everything beside her body is just black blur in front of me.

Holding her face in my arms, these features that had put my heart at ease every time I look at it, now lying lifelessly in my hand.

_"n..mom.. please w.. wake up"

_" I.. I beg you... let's go home t.. together "

My heart is being chattered to thousand pieces, and all of my eyes could see is the Blood covering her while everything else became dark.

Wrath, despair and pain have taken over me,

And the last thing I can recall is that knight's golden eyes staring down at me.

_"I WILL MAKE YOU PAY "
