In a forest, a bunch of goblins surrounded a girl. She was crying, but of course she was. But as the goblins were creeping on her spikes appeared on the group for each one of them, penetrating them all in an instant. They looked confused. What was this thing the spikes were made out of?
'Hey, you are hurt?'
As the girl looked to see where the noise was coming from, she saw a boy. His black hair made it impossible for your eyes to not get absorbed in them, his green eyes looked like one of those expensive emeralds. He was wearing a bracelet with a black crystal in it, she had never seen this type of crystal, and the metal was shiny, it had a little blue shade to it.
He was also wearing a black earring, but why only one? And why, black wasn't a good color for earrings, gold was way better.
He was also pretty tall, he stood about one meter and seventy-eight centimeters, so five-foot teen. He was a black t-shirt that was covered in blood, his sword stood sheeted on his right side.
"Ah, I'm fine."
'Come on il escort you back to the town.'
The girl followed the boy back into town before finally departing.
But who was this boy?
Let's go to the past a bit.
...
After what happened at the prison, Max couldn't stay in the Alter kingdom anymore, he had to go to another. But which one?
The human kingdom was divided into five big kingdoms.
The Alter kingdom stood at the southeast point of the kingdom, it was also the most populated as it was the furthest away from both the dragon and demon continents.
The Berwin Kingdom, neighboring the demon continent it became home to demon contracts and where most of the families that specialize In those areas come from, including the Igor family.
The Codric Kingdom, was the closest kingdom to the Alter Kingdom so it was a good option, but they were also allies with them so they would probably arrest him the second he stepped inside.
The Dayvon Kingdom, considered the center of the continent it was also the most powerful, even having the most Servus Familias live inside it. If humanity would get itself in a war it would probably become its capital.
Last but not least the Enubis Kingodom, neighboring the dragon continent, it was also the coldest out of all of them, but that could serve as a big advantage in war.
Which one of the options was the best? He wondered while walking on a wide field filled with flowers. Where he stood was a land no kingdom owned, it belonged to monsters and people banished from their kingdom.
One of the reasons for this was that it didn't respect natural laws. Every insect here was massive and the flowers meanwhile they looked beautiful they ate human meat. He knew this because he had read about this land when he was a kid.
Its name was the Forsaken Field.
He also knew not to eat any berries here, meanwhile, they weren't poisonous and they were good tasting, they were alive. They enter your body and with what remains of them after chewing they start eating your body from the inside.
The Forsaken Field was almost as big as all the kingdoms combined so it was a shame they couldn't make use of it. If they were able to conquer the Forsaken Field humanity would grow stronger with the additional land.
But as he was deep in thought he saw the girl he helped escape from prison, she was about to eat a berry.
'Hey don't eat that.'
The girl panicked a bit as she saw Max, maybe she thought he was there to kill her.
'If you eat that you will die.'
She was still not talking, she must have been traumatized about what had happened while serving her sentence.
'Lisen I'm not here to kill you, if I wanted to I would have a while back.'
She looked a bit to the ground not sure if she should respond, but then looked back at Max.
"Y-Your right, so you said I shouldn't eat these, why?"
Max was pretty bothered about having to explain something so simple.
'You really don't know anything about the Forsaken Field?'
"I don't, I normally just sit in my room all day. You see I'm not even from the Alter kingdom, I got kidnapped and forced to do bad things."
Not from the Alter Kingdom?
'Where are you from then?'
She started smiling, she was clearly proud of her kingdom.
"Im the one and only princess of the Enubis Kingdom."
The Enubis kingdom, it wasn't a bad opinion maybe he could go back home with the gi- wait, princess?
'Princess? Im sorry I didn't know.'
"It's alright, I don't expect people to recognize me in the state I was in."
Max let out a sigh, he could have killed the princess. He would probably been executed in front of everyone if someone found out.
"Speaking of it, why are you here? Or how you got in jail In the first place."
'I got falsely accused and set up. I also got banished.'
"Ah that's a shame, maybe you can come to the Enubis Kingdom. Im sure you will be welcomed with open arms."
That was exactly what he wanted to hear, an invite from the princess who could go against it. Plus he had saved her, this had to get the king's appreciation.
"Im Evelyn Frost. What's your name."
She offered a handshake.
His name huh? A part of him wanted to say, Rose, the other just Max. But none of these options were good. He wasn't a Rose anymore, and if he went with no name not only would it cause attention, but it would also just put him on the same path again.
After thinking for some time he sighed.
'My name? Its Max Solutus.'
