"Roarrr" I heard and a quick blow was sent to my side I reacted quickly and dodged with ease, but another came.
I looked at the creature as attacking me and well it was a weird version of my previous general Isa.
A general killed by me a month ago for organizing a coup on me during my last battle, I thought as I dodged again.
I laughed and Drew my sword and launched an attack chopping of his hands. But that didn't have any effect as his hands grew back.
This was not going to be easy. We fought with Phillip attacking the witches and me trying to understand this creature.
I had sliced it's head and waited to see i it would grow back as other parts did and yes it did grow back it didn't even fall dead for minutes.
I looked around the body and noticed some decaying parts on it which meant the body was lifeless plus it's movement were slightly delayed.
This was a puppet as so there should be a puppeteer somewhere around. it wasn't long till I found traces of a shadow up in the trees.
I had my sword thrown up into the trees and a body of a witch fell from the trees with a stab wound in its neck, and just as the witch died Isa also fell and turned into smoke.
I joined Phillip and soon we slayed the witches, they were more advanced than all the previous witches I had fought before.
We turned back and head towards the direction we came from when we heard sizzling. One of the witches body was healing.
We stopped and observed, it looked like she had higher power than the other two.
This time I chose not to clean the king's main bedroom as I wouldn't want to have another encounter with the king with what happened this morning.
I finished my tasks and joined the other maids as we left the king's quarters together. This was my last task today and I was hungry having not eaten lunch.
I walked into the kitchen were we were served our food. I had to say the food here was better than that in the previous part of the palace that I worked in.
Dinner today was white porridge and steamed buns. I took my share and went to find a table to sit in.
I had not eaten half my food when someone crashed into me, pouring everything on the table on the floor and alos had hitting my head on the floor.
I was sure it would leave a mark and it did hurt a lot, not to mention my spilled food.
I stood up and saw Barbara looking at me with a smirk and I was sure that she set this up.
The maid that crashed into me started apologizing " sorry I didn't mean to knock into you, I tripped, I'm so sorry" she said over and over again.
I looked at the spilled food on the ground "don't worry, it's okay" I said and walked out of the kitchen. I knew it was better to Walk away and treat it as nothing than get into trouble and then die.
I walked downstairs to the servant quarters and my assigned room. I laid in bed an then I all came loose, I was crying.
This was the first time I was crying in a very long time and it did hurt it really did. I cuddled myself to sleep mumbling it would be alright all night
