Lósif—skeletons, go to where the merchants who saw me are and kill them, then destroy and kill everything you can, don't leave my remains—
Lósif watched as the skeletons ran away and bones clinking as he saw them until they disappeared, he heard some screams and he decided to run around the alley and go to the orphanage, this day was very dangerous and hectic, he had to do this for their own good, if not ago those merchants saw him and they are going to tell the knights then he will be investigated and killed he did not want this, all to help end this situation.
Losif was running and saw the orphanage so he walked and entered, he observed that everyone was gathered at the table ready to eat and Losif with the sword hidden behind his back decided to go upstairs and clean it, then ignoring Diana's words, he just moved forward.
Young voice—Understood old Kor, you say that you managed to face a creature of some necromancer and won—
Kor—yes, that's José as I told you—
José—look Kor, if what you say is true then we are in big trouble that will come in the future. I am the captain of the southern knights and I have the responsibility to help, I am going to send three men to go verify what you say about the creature that you locked up in the cemetery, if it is true then we expect the worst—
José—a certain detail that you told me catches my attention, two children who mysteriously appeared on the same night as that evil creature, I wonder if I should visit them—
Kor—José, I understand what you think but I don't think you should do it, they are simple brats from some distant town, just the rough clothes they wear is enough to realize it. They are not dangerous, if they were, I wouldn't let them have dinner with me, so I took them to the orphanage where Diana is, I just left them—
José—very well I agree with your good eye—
Kor—thank you very much, boy, you know, although I am old, I have good eyes to see evil from good. The boy named Lósif will be a future knight because of the great kindness I saw in him. Along the way I observed the boy's different emotions, they are very different, ranging between nostalgia and kindness—
José—then I'm looking forward to that new boy who left a good impression on you, right now my gentlemen are going to accompany you back and they are going to verify—
Kor—Alright, time for these old guys to move. Let's go guys!—
José watched as old Kor left and behind him were the three knights what he sent, he knew deep down and I hope it is false, he did not want something like that in the kingdom. If this happens, those in the north of the kingdom will not help and will leave us to our fate, perhaps they will take advantage of this crisis and the king will go to negotiate with this necromancer.
José—I hope everything is false. Our men are not prepared for these crises, I ask God to protect us—
After muttering these words under his breath he stared at the place where they were a moment ago, he knew he had to prepare so he turned around and took a photo in his hands where the king of Tosiff was and next to him was the first woman of all, The main wife, a woman of imminent beauty and cold character, white hair, green eyes and a beautiful figure. Next to her was a tall and strong man, with blonde hair and gray eyes. In the background were several servants kneeling and watching the royal couple.
He focused on the servant who was kneeling next to the deceased queen, this servant was his deceased mother at the hands of the king, when the queen died in childbirth. The king went crazy to the point of killing the servants, that was 10 years ago since then the situation in the kingdom has worsened.
José remembers or superficially compares the deceased queen with the sick girl from the orphanage, sometimes some men go to see her but she always covered herself, leaving only her eyes and white skin exposed. Once he entered the orphanage and then he observed her, she was bathing. with a damp cloth removing the dirt from the body, he was left in a state of shock to see such hidden beauty. Since then he tries to understand how that hidden beauty has not been seen. He knows that the men who visited her were delighted but they never saw the appearance just a bunch of cloth covering her face but she had that natural charm, coming out of her thoughts she smiled a little when remembering that he had a good job and was only 27 years old, he could get any girl he wants and she will be of the.
José—Now that I remember, the girl named Blanca was abandoned by the family who were previously servants of the king, it seems that later the queen died. They went south and the dead servant had a husband, so for some reason he had a little newborn girl, it is very strange, it seems that he abandoned her out of pain when he knew that his wife was murdered. At least he has a noble title—
Quick steps hitting the ground in a fast run.
—Captain José! It's true, there is a bone creature in the cemetery, it seems that after being locked up the mana that controls it was dispersed—
José—Quick! Let's investigate everything around and go report to the knights of the north—
Two days later...
The captain of the southern knights was thinking about the previous things that happened, observing on the desk some bones of some creature similar to some kind of semi-human, a human with some other animal, it was the first time they had seen this type of animal or creature in all life, they were tired to find out what this is, one of the researchers said that this was a corpse of some young demihuman who unfortunately was killed by the evil wizard and the objective was the cemetery to banish the graves or kill Kor .
José, the captain of the knights, sighed tiredly. He was still just starting the day and he already had many things to do, after all he is a knight and has honor.
He wanted to talk to Blanca, tell the girl to join him and he would hand over everything he has, but he doesn't have time to do all this, he was thinking about how the knights sent to explore didn't find anything and the guys from the north were very disastrous by downplaying its importance saying that they were just bones from some grave, another headache.
Kor—good morning, boy, it seems like you're having a good time, a good day to do everything—
José—Kor, I'm really busy, you really know how to cause problems, you're going to make me old—
Kor was in the office with him, since the truth of what he said was verified, he didn't want to leave him besides saying everything that happened since then he is with him, maybe this day will be some good news.
Unknowingly, this day will get even worse.
Loud footsteps were heard and the door burst open, a gentleman named Alejandro entered, he is in charge of street security.
Alejandro: We are under attack by a magician who summons the dead, there are four skeletons killing the civilians, my men are trying to help and support but the situation is bad, we started scared and two of my men died so those things took the armor and swords to use them against us, we have to help, we are going to die at this rate—
José—stop talking and guide me once and for all—
They both left, leaving behind a scared old Kor who had two coffees ready, both fall to the ground and remain static.
When we arrived at the scene, it was a horror, there was a lot of rubble and screams of people in the center of the street. Four skeletons with armor and swords were fighting against two old knights who were in the patrol team with Alejandro, and on the ground were four dead companions. They were young people recently recruited to the ranks of the knight patrol.
old gentleman voice 2—damn! I don't think we can resist anymore, my physique is not like it used to be—
Voice of an old knight 1—resistance and honor! We will fight to protect the weak, that is our destiny—
old knight voice 2 —fight! Disgusting skeletons see the power of a knight—
Both old knights, lifelong friends with a determined and firm look, fight and resist with great courage the attacks of four armed skeletons. They both know that if they do not stop them until reinforcements arrive, more innocent civilians would die, they cannot leave this, they still remembered that a few moments ago everything was calm.
Time ago: before the attack.
Elderly knight 1—my name is Paco, I am a knight of all my life, I meet two of my new recruits, they are young and they should learn from us elders, I am not really in active service as before, I am only with my friend threshing What is also an old gentleman, we are gentlemen but we are in the office sitting now we have the task of teaching these new recruits each one took two young men to teach, take this opportunity to go see my wife and daughter they have a flower shop a Almost the end of the street is without people and sometimes there are no sales but they are happy and so am I.
Upon entering he observed how there is a smell of blood and I see with horror my wife and daughter dead with their necks cut, I approached the bodies and he observed with sadness my wife who was urinating from fear then I heard it in a bread store there a sound of things falling and I quickly go out and see four skeletons leaving the business.
Taco—we are going to defend this kingdom—
He headed straight to confront these invaders. When he arrived, he observed how the two recruits were trembling with fear. I gave them the order to evacuate civilians and call in their equipment, perhaps this way we could confront them.
One of my new recruits was evacuating people and the other went straight to the beggars' alley to call threshing, only I was left to stop them and make them die to avenge my daughter and wife.
Trilla's point of view:
My name is Trilla, I am a retired elderly gentleman, now I am with two new gentlemen, I had to check the homeless alley when I entered, I observed how quiet it was as usual and a little house made of blankets and cardboard, everything was normal, it seems that they were asleep, then he turned around and I see one of the gentlemen who left with my taco friend, he was agitated.
He told me that he was under attack and I was quick, upon arriving he observed in amazement Taco fighting four skeletons and I quickly joined the confrontation, we were overwhelmed by the skeletons in a display of superior strength the skeletons launched a combined attack, making us fall. and they quickly went to where our recruits were and killed them, we saw with absolute fear how the skeletons killed our young knights and died without defending themselves due to the terror they felt when seeing such a monster approaching where they were, we got up as quickly as we could again to fight and stop them then we saw something that surprised us again the skeletons were removing the armor
