The rain poured down their bodies, the vast field took about 1 hour to find the forest. The rain was not too heavy, now they sat under a fairly large tree. Enough to dry the wet clothes, the atmosphere became quiet.
Since Arzlan woke up from his death, not a word came out of his mouth, he still emitted a serious look as if he thought the enemy was around him, Alisha realized that Arzlan was much more changed than before.
"Master Arzlan!" Alisha used a soft voice to greet that man. Arzlan slowly directed his eyes, a pretty scary glare clearly visible. "Uh!" Alisha reflexively turned her gaze away, she was so nervous to look at Arzlan's gaze.
Arzlan looked away, not because he didn't like Alisha's words, but his eyes fell on the girl's body which was wet from the rain, some parts of her body were clearly visible. This will be bad if Arzlan continues to see it, lust may be difficult to control, and that things would happen which shouldn't need to be said.
"Ouch, why did I avoid his eyes, now it's going to be even harder for me to talk to him!" Alisha wanted to smack her head for the stupid act she had done.
"You don't have to worry about me!"
Alisha became a little surprised by the bass note that came out of that man's mouth.
"I'm fine, as long as my goal isn't finished, I won't die!" continued Arzlan.
"Hmm..." Alisha was confused to answer Arzlan, she didn't want her words this time to fail open the topic of conversation. "Doesn't it scare you when you face the creature?"
"I'm still scared, but the impression of fear was only for a moment, it all happened just 5 seconds after that I started to get rid of the fear!"
"S-So fast, is he really human?" asked Alisha from inside her heart. It was difficult for her to understand whether Arzlan's words were true or not, but that man kept a sharp look in his gaze. There is no way that what Arzlan said was just nonsense.
"Oh, I see! I was so scared, I thought you already dead and would never wake up again!"
"I think so too!"
"Huh?"
"At that time my body felt like I was floating, but my legs and arms felt heavy to move! I thought this was the end of my life. However, it was only for a moment, I've opened my eyes again!"
"What do you see when you experience that?"
Arzlan was silent for a moment, his mouth felt heavy to say that to Alisha. "I found another ambition that I had forgotten, now because that ambition I can get back up and ready to go even further!"
Reflected by the serious gaze of the words that just came out, Alisha got shivered when she heard those words. She understands that these words are not kidding, if the sword is sharpened then it is a sign for that sword is ready to be used to cut something, just like Arzlan's heart is more mature than before.
"Then what shall we do now?"
"For now we will look for a Black Smith, like what I said before, weapons and equipment must be obtained soon as possible!" Arzlan looked at Alisha's face.
"What is it?" Alisha was surprised by the deep look in Arzlan's eyes.
"Aren't you cold with your body like that?"
"Eh?" Alisha looked at her body, her cheeks turned red when she realized that her body was now narrow in several parts so that all parts of her body became bulging. Alisha quickly turned her head away, actually it had no meaning since what she should be covering was body parts. But, Arzlan never cared about that.
***
They walked again until the day became night, the atmosphere was so quiet.
"Firing Breath!"
The fires had appeared used by Alisha's magic, enough to warm themselves up on such a cold night.
Arzlan's head looked up, the man was disappointed by the clouds that covered the moonlight. "Huh… I think this is going to be a lot harder!"
On the other side, Amiru in a few days had already carried out an extermination of the Demon King's troops. Now was the time for him to rest, it should be like that, but he still had some unfinished business.
"Hero Amiru, now the southern part of the fort has started to see the movement of monsters! There are so many of them, it is difficult for our troops to face them!" said a soldier
"What?!" Amiru immediately stood up from his seat. "Damn it! Why did they also make a move tonight?" He had been fighting non-stop for three days, he wanted that night to be a time to rest. However, conditions have now changed, everything becomes so precarious.
***
In the Demon King's palace everything has been prepared to face the heroes.
"Now, what will those heroes do? They will definitely become very tasty prey! Adena!"
A woman came into the throne room. Her body is so sexy and only wears thin clothes that will seduce every eye when seeing it.
Yes, my lord?" Adena knelt down while making a very strong voice to captivate a man's heart.
"I want you to do something!"
"Okay!"
Amiru became restless, he fast rode his horse. "What will happen? Is all of this so difficult?"
Amiru with the 400 soldiers directly charged at the enemy troops which were more numerous, the man was very confident in his strength. The strong brunt of the troops did manage to overwhelm the monsters, Amiru proved that he was still the strongest even though he had been fighting non-stop for days.
All the monsters who witnessed Amiru's ferocity became very frightened, the fight continued until dawn came. On top of the pile of monsters stood a man, his body exhausted after swinging the ax for more than 5 hours.
"Finally I can save the fortress, now everyone will definitely praise my name as a hero more than others!" Amiru was still trying to hold on even though his legs felt very weak and his head was heavy to maintain consciousness.
"Hero Amiru!" An old man along with five soldiers immediately approached the man.
"You all!" Amiru's eyes were already so tired, he want to go sleep soon.
"Master Amiru…!" When the old man approached Amiru, that man's body had already collapsed.

Arzlan quickly got up and looked at the light of dawn. The wind slowly blows spreading a bad feeling. "What happened? Why did the wind change?" Arzlan did not feel comfortable with the wind that felt strange, the wind seemed to be shaking his feelings.
