Chereads / The Knight King / Chapter 8 - He was alone

Chapter 8 - He was alone

They all knew had heard about the stories filled with valour of this man. They only moved out of their daze when the man pulled out two swords from from their covers hung on his belt. The blades of the sword were shining are had a hard texture. He began playing with the swords in both his hands spinning the swords in circular motion. The soldiers too took out they their swords and made their advanced towards him. He was alone and surrounded by the soldiers. Two soldiers on the front made their first move. They raised their hand with the sword and pushed it with force to attack the man. The man was still on the horse and charged his swords to each of them at once. It hit them giving them cuts making them fall. He flipped his swords in air and the next group came ahead. They made their advances to attack. He jumped down and defended each of their attack skillfully. A sword swung around his head from the side and he quickly put his down and up again. He turned and flung the sword to the soldier who had attacked and pushed him. Another soldier swung his sword to the mystery man's waist it caused him to jump and reach to another end. He swiftly turned and came behind that soldier hitting him with the elbow. The mystery man took this opportunity to hit on his hand and the soldier's grip over the sword loosened. The earlier attacks had made him wear out so he collapsed.

The mystery man made a lot of moves and this suspended all the soldiers there. Their bodies weakened. They felt it's better if they escape and started running away. They gave in. The mystery man kept looking at them till they had gone some distance away from him. Once this happened he kept his swords back. Only after he made sure no soldier was left behind, he climbed onto his horse and tapped on his back. It was his horse. He immediately understood his masters actions and started running away too. Perhaps the man wanted to move away from the village to secure his identity. The man tapped on the horse again and the horse picked up speed.

The villagers came out of their hiding place. They kept looking at the direction of the mystery man as he disappeared. They started thanking the mystery man inwardly with a sigh of relief.

The mystery man was faraway from the village so now he tapped the horse with his legs and pulled the cordeos in motion to stop. The horse halted slowing the pace. The man jumped down and got stable on his two feet. He grabbed the horse by the back patted him gently.The horse neighed cheerfully being cuddled by the master. The man now took off his cap. His head was covered with a cloth wrapped around it. It pulled it out and oh my Gosh!

The hair tied up in this cloth were now opened and released. They fell down to the back. They were long and silky. The head owning these hair swung left and right. Now the mask that had covered the face was thrown in the bag hung on the side of the horse. Then the hand gloves were thrown into it at the next instant.
