Me and Salvino left and rode the carriage
The whole way we talked and laughed until we finally arrived back at the mansion. My mom is staying in.
We went upstairs and gave Marina the bag
And explained that they used this substance to turn the beasts into a bunch of savages, they inject it to any type of meat because it doesn't affect humans it affects only beasts eating meat to look like they are attacking on purpose.
And it is actually a plan to turn against the beasts and there is nothing suspicious it's just the beasts nature to attack people and that is not true
" So...can you inspect it?" I asked
"Yeah, sure, I will see what this is all about!" Marina answered
Salvino wanted to speak to me, so he dragged me outside and told me.
" Hey, I made you learn how to fight with your fists alone. I want you to learn how to fight with a sword too the correct way this time as much as I want to help you. I will be staying here protecting the queen until we expose the new queen because we know that your mother is actually in danger at this time, so...I will send you off on an island..." He said
" Wait, what? But..." I said, confused
" No buts, I want you to be stronger to be able to handle an army by your own...don't worry there will be a boat every week that will come and see if you are doing well and will bring you food" He said
"...Yeah, yeah, okay, but when will I come back?" I asked
" You will come back after cutting two large trees successfully...one you will take a while until you chop off and the other will take no time to cut off just one slash and you are going to cut it off and don't cheat! If the second one was hard to cut off, then you will have to chop more trees until you succeed, and I want you to knock down a tree with your bare fist that is it" He said
" Are you crazy? That will take months or even years!" I said
" Yes, I know, so be ready by then." He said
" You got to be kidding me!" I said
" Don't be such a wuss come on, just do as I say!" He said
" Hey language!" I said
" Sorry" He said
" Oh gosh, this is going to be harder than I thought!" I said
" This is for your own good Calix!" He said
" Yeah, I got it!" I said
" We will have to go to the mansion and pick up some stuff, and then you will have to leave!" He said
" Okay!" I said
I went to my mother to say goodbye to her
" Hello, mother, how are you feeling today?" I asked
" I am doing fine, my son!" She said
" That is good! I will be leaving, and I will come back after a couple of months, and it could become a year or two or three... " I said
" I see... I am sorry for being this useless, my son. I want you to come back healthy and happy, okay?" She said
" I WILL and mother you are not useless you are my hope!" I said
She looked at me with her eyes sparkling and hugged me tight
I said goodbye to my mother, and then I went outside, and I let out a sigh.
"Hey, you don't look so good!" Marina said
" it is kind of true. I will go to an island to train and nobody is coming with me!" I said
"Oh, I didn't know that. Good luck!" She said with a sad tone
"Well then, bye!" I said with a fake smile
It is okay she has someone already. I shouldn't be sad
Salvino was waiting outside
"Well then, let us go!" Salvino said
" Yeah..." I said
We went to the mansion where Salvino lived. He ordered the maids to get me clothes and ordered to get a boat ready and take some food with me.
And I am supposed to make swords for myself?
As a professional swordsmith, it is my job to make my swords anyway...
I made 10 swords, and I sharpened them well.
It took me a week until I finished getting ready for the trip.
Salvino told me to take care of myself and my health
And when I was about to leave
Kendrick came from nowhere and shouted
" YOUR MAJESTY I DONT WANT TO STAY HERE THE QUEEN IS AFTER ME AND HELD MY FAMILY HOSTAGE PLEASE HELP." He said
" OKAY, THEN JUMP YOU IDIOT!" I said
I waved goodbye to Salvino with a smile
Salvino looked confused but went with it and waved goodbye.
" Well, how did you end up in this situation?" I asked
" Well, she knew that I was supporting you. I think one of the beaten up men listened to our conversation and informed her. It's a good thing you escaped your majesty!" Kendrick said
" Why are you saying that?" I asked
" Salvino probably sent you off because he was worried about you, I bet! He knew you were in danger. " Kendrick said
" What? WHAT!..." I said, then looked at Salvino
" YOU IDIOT WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS... YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO CARRY ALL THAT BURDEN, " I said
" YOUR MAJESTY I WILL SUPPORT YOU UNTIL I DIE SO DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME. I AM A STRONG MAN!" Salvino said
" YOU ARE AN IDIOT!" I said with a cry
