Dual Blade

“Wait! I can tell you something more important! In return, please let me off this time!” begged a young woman. Two muscular men had her cornered in a dark alley

“Can we trust her, bro?” said Man 1.

“If she lies to us again this time, I will let Josh handle it later,” said Man 2.

“I think I like that better! Now, what do you want to say?” asked Man 1 to a young woman. “Do you know that ‘Dual Blade’ has already arrived in this town?” said that young woman. “Really!? We need to tell Josh as soon as possible!” urged Man 2.

But Man 1 can't grasp the situation, as he doesn't know who Dual Blade is.

“Stop! Why do we need to tell Josh quickly about this? And who is Dual Blade?” asked Man 1.

“You need to start paying attention after this. Dual Blade is made up of two people. First, there is a young woman who is known to play any kind of weapon, especially a sword. She can handle two big people like us easily. Although she doesn't look strong, don't be deceived by that. With one swing only, maybe it is enough to kill me if I am not being careful,” explained Man 2 while letting out a big sigh.

“She looks so strong…” replied Man 1.

“But there is a rumor that the woman has royal blood,” said Man 2.

“Really?! Is she related to King Barren?” asked Man 1.

“I don't really know. Now, let's go see and tell Josh about this,” urged Man 2 hurriedly.

“Stop! You have not told me about one more person yet,” said Man 1.

“The other one is more dangerous. His sword skill is scarier than that young woman. There are more people in front of him, but he can kill them easily. I heard that he almost defeated Mark.”

“Mark?! I thought he is one of our most powerful members in our organization. No one dares to challenge Mark. Are you sure about that?” Man 1 looks so surprised hearing that.

“Yes. I was also surprised to hear about that before. But there is not enough information about him. Nobody really knows where he comes from or why Dual Blade is doing this. Enough with that and bring that woman… Wait! Where is she?” Man 2 is surprised that a young woman is not there anymore. “Yeah! Where is she?” said Man 1.

“This is all your fault! If you didn't ask me so many questions earlier!”

After that, both of them leave the place. A young woman earlier seemed to be hiding on the other side of the wall. She slipped away from them when they were too focused talking about the Dual Blade.

“I am so lucky. Last time, I really almost got caught by them. Now, I need to leave here quickly,” said a young woman.

“Hey, young lady! Can I ask you something?”

She hears someone’s voice from her back. When she looks back…

“Are you….”
