Chereads / Destiny of the knight walker / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

4 days after the incident moirai continued his journey. he walked through a large meadow dotted with some wildflowers.

After a few minutes he stopped and looked around. 

"I seem to be lost..."

a few hours later he was still walking along the path when he came across a small village in a large meadow. there was also a mountain not too far from the settlement. in the distance a white flag was seen flying on one of the villagers' houses.

Moirai approached the village, but instead of being welcomed he was pointed at by some farming tools by the villagers with a threatening gesture.

"Who are you?" threatened one of the villagers.

With a tired face Moirai raised both hands as a form of no resistance.

"Listen to me, I'm just a wandering knight here,"

"Why did you come to our village?"

"I just happened to be passing by..." said Moirai "I would also like to buy some supplies if you permit to do so."

"Did you bring money?" the villager asked.

"Of course there is-" when Moirai check his pocket heremembered all the money left in his bag that he left behind during the fight the other day.

It sucks.... .... why I forgot that bag...

"I... didn't bring any money...."

"I'm sorry sir... we're also living in shortage right now because of the war, I can't help you for free" the villager said.

In the middle of the conversation, an old man appeared among the crowd, with shaky steps he walked with the help of his cane. the villagers who saw the old man immediately opened the way for him 

"Who are you traveller..." asked the old man.

Moirai replied, "My name is Moirai... I am a knightwalker."

"Knightwalker yes... a knight who travels the continent... I haven't seen a knightwalker in a long time... Kekeke... we can give you some supplies... but there are conditions" said the old man while rubbing his beard.

"Can you exterminate some monsters around the village for us, if you can exterminate the monsters we can give you some supplies for free as payment" said the old man while pointing towards the mountains.

"Are there any special conditions?" asked Moirai.

"No... nothing... just exterminate the monsters" replied the old man.

"Well... I have no choice I guess" said Moirai. 

After chatting, Moirai walked away from the village to complete his mission. After a few steps Moirai turned around and asked something 

"Do you know where a suitable hunting ground is? I've been hungry for days" 

"On the south side of our village there is a fairly dense forest, there is a wild deer habitat there, you can hunt it if you want, but there are villagers who have disappeared while hunting there, so please be careful sir knight" answered the old man with a smile.

"Thanks... I guess..."

Moirai headed towards the forest leaving the village behind. While walking in the forest he smelled an awful smell. he found a corpse that had become a skull with bones scattered around.

This... ughhh... sucks I guess I'm already stuck in a shitty situation.

Moirai continued his journey towards the forest, while walking, several wolves appeared with bloody fangs surrounding Moirai. 

Moirai quickly took her necklace and turned the necklace into a sword. When one of the wolves attacked, Moirai immediately slashed the wolf with ease.

WUSH

Seeing that, the wolves that should have been scared continued to attack Moirai. This time several wolves attacked simultaneously from all directions. Moirai immediately dodged the attack. After getting the right momentum Moirai immediately stabbed one of the wolves like stabbing tofu with chopsticks. Without further delay, Moirai immediately attacked the other wolves.

WUSH, JLEB

Moira wielded her sword and stabbed at the wolves. One by one the wolves were defeated by Moirai, leaving one wolf that was already injured. The wolf instead attacked Moirai as a result Moirai easily cut off the wolf's head.

This is strange... wolves are known for being cunning and intelligent creatures... but they attack blindly instead.

After the fight was over Moirai's sword turned back into a necklace again. Moirai approached the wolf's corpse to find out what happened.

Moirai opened the wolf's mouth. When he opened it, there was a lot of blood splattering from the mouth.

This blood... was his own... I guess this wolf wasn't a wild wolf.

Moirai also checked all the wolves' mouths and the results were the same that the blood in the mouth was the wolf's own blood.

There is only one type of wolf that has this characteristic "blood wolf" .... plus this type is not a type that cannot live alone in the wild.

Most likely this wolf is kept by humans or demons... however... I have rarely seen wolves among humans or demons then there is only 1 possibility 

"Goblins... plus goblins that have intelligence..."

"Huh... I guess I'll be here for a while..."
