Chapter 34 - A dark entry

As Lutan moved forward inside the cave , he was getting a really strong scent .

He was feeling the presenece of a strong entity .

They continued to move forward.With Lutan lightning up the darkness with his magical torch

After walking a certain distance they got nothing.

One knight said ," Sir are you sure there is a really powerful curse there.I mean we haven't got anything.We have come in so much."

Lutan : We have much more to explore.And many powerful entitied don't like to show off their presence .

We will continue after a few moments of rest.

Saying this he screamed : Soldiers rest.

All the soldiers sat down and relaxed.

Lutan sat down too .

As they were relaxing they heard a large sound nearby .

They were alarmed.

They rose up moved forward towards it .

A strange vibration was coming towards them.

After a few moments they saw a creature .

Its two front teeth were coming out .

It was the size of a short height man.

It was looking towards them.

Lutan : Damn this looks powerful.

Suddenly the creature took out its tongue and grabbed one of the knights and crushed him to death.

All the knights and Lutan were shocked at the scene.

Lutan and the other knights had been paralysed by the creature.

They couldn't even move .

Lutan : Damn this paralysis is a common technique of these cursed dark creatures .

But this one is so damn powerful.

I can't even move .

Lutan tried his full strength but couldn't move.

Suddenly Lutan started feeling dizzy and started feeling unconscious.

"Damn it." he said.

One knight said ," I can't breathe ." in a desperate voice.He was gasping and wanting to breathe."

and the knight was still standing because of he couldn't move and suddenly all of the knights fell except one .

Lutan was starving too.

The creature let one knight live .

The creature told one knight," You look a little strong compared to others. It will be a waste to let you die without a fight against me . Iam dying for a battle.Most of the earlier ones that came before you were also really weak but you look stronger than them."

The knight was sitting on his knees as he was in a very dangerous situation moments.

He took a deep breath and stood up.

"I will fight and kill you now " , he said to the creatures .

That creature replied ," That's the spirit." in a Sarcastic tone.

The knight was actually one of Lutan's friends from Lutan's childhood.

He remembers his childhood :

He was from a poor family in the Dokak Kingdom whose family worked as farmers.His name was Kolark. Lutan's family was also poor.His father sold clothes in the Dokak kingdom.They were his neighbours . They were really good friends .

One day in the Kingdom came an old man in the King's court .

When they grew up they took their family business.

Their parents died Shortly after that.

They remained good friends.

Lutan was always a child who didn't like to talk much and always thought of becoming a fierce warrior but his physicality was not that strong but always had a strong will.He didn't like to back up from a fight . He also got angry really quick .

Due to this nature he was often bullied by other friends and often got beaten by them .Lutan always stood beside him.He was the one who introduced Lutan to his friends and got him some friends though they never really liked him due to his strange behaviors.

He also helped Lutan by setting up his business and teaching him how to treat customers.

One day when a bully was beating Lutan , Kolark came and stood infront of the bully and asked him to leave him in an angry voice.The bully replied," This is our matter.We will solve him ."

Kolark shouted ," I said leave him,"

The bully got angry and beat both of them .

The bully wanted Lutan's money that he earned by working in a merchant's house for a day .

Even after getting beaten he didn't give his money.The bully went away calling him idiot.

One day Lutan asked ," Why are you always by my side ?"

Kolark replied ," Because You are my friend ."

Lutan asked ," Why am i your friend ? "

Kolark : I don't know . I just want everyone to live together . I saw you sitting alone in the childhood and i just wanted to be friends with you . Even though you were stranger than others you were the only one who never attacked me from behind ."

Lutan looked confused as Kolark was watching him .

One day two huge birds attacked the kingdom and they were killing any person they could with its claws .

Even the king's soldiers weapons were ineffective against them.

One bird landed near Lutan and Kolark when they were running from the market .

Strange enough as soon as the birds were about to attack Lutan and Kolark both of the birds vanished .

Lutan saw an old man hiding under a blanket laughing .

Few days later an old man came in the kingdom.

It was the same old man Lutan saw .

He went to the palace .

He asked the king to let him check all the

villagers for curse check as he claimed to be a Curse destroyer .

The old man checked everyone and finally caught Lutan and Kolark saying they are affected by curse .

Lutan was angry and Kolark was asking for an explanation but the king in the fear of another attack decided to gave both of them to the old man .

The villagers were celebrating .

When the old man was carrying them in the bull cart by tying their hands.

Lutan screamed at the old man and asked ,: What is happening ? Can you tell me ? Just tell me .

The old man replied ," Iam Zoh .You will know everything soon ."

It was Master Zoh .

He took them to his place .

He explained to them everything about the curse situataion.

He also gave some fruits to them .

Lutan was able to eat them while Kolark failed.

Lutan told Kolark about the fruit choice but hid it from Lutan .

They trained and even went to many missions together .

One day When it was time for the island mission.

Master Zoh told Lutan that Kolark will not be joining him .

Lutan was disappointed and angry at him .

Master Zoh told him That Lutan will become a knight for now and After when he will gain sufficient experience he can be terked as a proper curse destroyer .

Kolark was also disappointed but he reached to his friend Lutan who was refusing to go to the mission without him.

He explained him how he was happy with his position.

Lutan finally agreed .

Over years their interaction became less and less and eventually finished .

Whenever they interacted Kolark called him Sir Lutan and this interaction became less awkard with time .

Kolark was enjoying his time as knight .

Though his dream was to become a properr curse destroyer and go on a mission with his friend Lutan as they promised each other .

Over years Kolark stopped chasing his dreams and emerged as one of the finest Knights .His ability in battle was really top notch.Though he couldn't learn about the spells and other top energy caller actions by teachers as Master Zoh told that the knights should focus more in their magical sword skills .

He secretly practiced it by reading books .

Back to the present :

Kolark laughs at the creature and says to it ," I will atlast fulfil my dream.

His aura suddenly changed .
