Chapter 35: Three Musketeers
A week had passed since Nith joined The Guild of Valor and began his training under the experienced old master.
From day one, the old man had been getting a kick out of pummeling Nith's face with the other end of his spear. He'd strike Nith's nose, forehead, cheeks, or even lips, threatening to knock his teeth out.
All because Nith didn't match the others' flow.
In this misfortune, Nith wasn't alone. There were other disciples consistently getting smacked by the old master, but the other two, along with Nith, particularly stood out from the rest. Some believed they had won the old man's favor or that he saw talent in them.
The three of them became known as The Three Musketeers, who had sworn an oath of vengeance on the old man, not caring about his elderly age at all.
They'd at least get even with him.
Their vocal nature about it resulted in them earning that moniker.
