The Wise (Marzouk) entered, wearing a turban and a robe, and carrying his stick to lean on. On the referee's bench, princess asked him: "To whom is your loyalty, Marzouk?". He answered her in his aged, slow voice: " Who sits on this seat inside this castle, even if he is from the sea-jinn."
She touched her chin and narrowed her eyes, analysing him, but she felt that her intuition about him was correct and worthy of trust:
"What news of the fruit bats I ordered you to send, Marzouk?"
"The fruit bat cuts six hours for each Eliador, using the maximum possible speed, and using the super-fast kharmelian space stream - relative to the moon Kharmel - and it is from here from the palace of (Atur) to (Swirling) needs two full days to cross 8 Eliadores and return, and from here to until (School of Wises), the second bat needs a whole day to fly through 4 Eliadores and back, and from here to (Dagger Head) my third bat needs eighteen hours to cross 3 Eliadores and then come back, which is what actually happened with the last, and we got the response of (Postama) the cat".
"I don't like dealing with Blonde Cats," said Arch, pessimistically. "We have to, Arch," said Ainur, "the Negro is poor in sight, and Postama is her eye. Did she agree, Marzouk?"
He replied, "Actually, I don't know. (Wishtah the beach lobster) does not object according to what the Malishian Cat says, but (Postama) will reconsider the matter, it seems that there is a discussion between them that has not yet been resolved. She did not accept or refuse, but the positive thing is that she did not specify particular requests.
Aynur's face turned dark, and she asked him, "What about the rest of the bats? I mean, what is the expected time for their arrival?"
Marzouk thought a little about his calculations, then said:
As for the journey (School of Wises), according to my hourglass my second bat will arrive in only two hours, for I sent it yesterday on the brown day, and at midnight on this golden day of ours it will arrive, if it is not harmed. I expect, with the blessing of the Black Gods, to receive a detailed and positive response from the honorable Wise (Noveo). As for the first bat, it will not arrive from the terrestrial capital of sea-jinn before midnight on the first day of the new week, that is, tomorrow at the end of the (White) day, and I think that (Solaik knight of knights) will not disappoint us. You know well, my lady, the historical enmity between the jinn and witches."
(Amid) was resentful of her hiring new allies, and he felt a hidden insult stab there, and that his failure to defend his lady was evident, but he swallowed the matter, saying: "I think of the (White Bat) technique, it's at least more clear than Marzouk's bat." .
"Attack is indeed the best defense," said Aynur, "but this time our enemies are not entrenched in a fortress or a certain point."
"Let's go," said Fosan, impulsively as he always did. "I don't want your site to be found here before our battle with them."
While Wahara said, "Why don't we use a Bald-Man?"
The idea seemed bright, had it not been for Archie's response: "One man of them can indeed save us from the four murderers, but unfortunately, Bald-Man only fights for two things: his heart, and the soil of his country."
The storm was approaching.
Storm of blood.
