The Chase in Den

It was going to be night. Eidrin was still very irritated because he was unable to find Zen. Zen o the other hand ordered his comrades to attack Eidrin.

Bandit 3: Master Eidrin, I spot Zen.
Eidrin: Where?
Bandit 3: He is there.....

Suddenly, thieves who are comrades of Zen attacked Eidrin and the bandit.
Eidrin: Who are these guys?
Bandit: These guys are comrades of Zen.

There were almost twenty of them. Eidrin and the bandit got outnumbered but Eidrin still managed to defend himself. Suddenly, Zen appeared there and tried to stab Eidrin from the back. Eidrin sensed it with his warrior madness before Zen could attack him.
Bandit 3: That is Zen.
Eidrin: So this is Zen huh.
Eidrin attacked Zen back and Zen tries to escape from there.
Eidrin: He is escaping.
Bandit 3: Go and catch him.
Eidrin: But what about you?
Bandit 3: Don't care about me now. I can defend myself. Go and catch Zen.
Eidrin: But you helped me at this extend. I can't leave you back.
Suddenly, all the other 4 bandits also arrives there.
Bandit 1: Master Eidrin, we can manage them all. Go and catch Zen.
Eidrin: Okay. You guys, take care.
Eidrin then rushes towards the direction where Zen gone.

At the same time, in the other side of the den.
Romero is sitting quite and d4inking beer.
Romero(thought): I want to talk to her again. But that damn soldiers, they are not even letting anyone beside her.

Soldier 1: Princess, do you liked this place?
Merina: Yeah. But it also scaring me a little bit. People around here is very scary.
Soldier 2: Yeah. I also find them scary. I also first time into this place.
Soldier 1: Don't worry, when I am here, no one can harm you.
Soldier 1 laughed.
Soldier 1 (thaught): I can now finally impress the princess and then I will become the next king of Groacia.

Suddenly, a thief jumped out and hitted on Soldier 1 with glass bottle in his head. Everyone around there got shocked and feared at the same time. The thief then holded the soldier with neck and pointed a knife around his neck.
Thief 1: Princess of Groacia, you need to come with us or we will kill this brat.

Merina shocked in terror. Suddenly, Soldier 2 knocked out the thief and saved Soldier 2.
Soldier 2: Nice try you shitty thieves. Big brother, I always told you to not to down your guard.
Soldier 1: Stop advising me, am the big brother.

All other soldiers of Groacia arrived and fought with thieves, but to their terror, almost fifty thieves rounded them. The warriors of Groacia tried hard but they got outnumbered by the thieves. They then took Marina as a hostage by pointing knife towards her neck.
Thief 2: So what is your choice? Dieing with all other man of yours or coming with us alone?

Merina stood silent. No one was ready to say a word against the thieves or ready to help Merina because the thieves were too much in numbers and they were very regerous.
Suddenly, Romero, from the side of crowd, walked toward the thieves.
Romero: Hey you guys, holding a girl like this is not a polite way. You guys know? We need to be polite when we approach a girl, that is the rule of a decent man. Do you guys behave like this with you mother and sisters too?
Thief 2: Who are you brat to talk like this against us?
Romero: Who am I? That is none of your business. Just let her go, other wise I need to show you guys who am really is.
Soldier 1 to Soldier 2: Who is this arrogant guy actually? Do he really know to who he actually talking to?
Thief 1: You actually talk very bravely lad. I will surely have fun if I end you here with my hands.
Thief 1 goes towards Romero to kill him.
Suddenly, Romero grabbed a wine bottle and smashed it in the head of thief 1 and knocked him out.
Thief 2: How dare you!
All the other thieves rushed toward Romero. Romero knocked out most of them with barehand. Suddenly, a thief tried to stab Romero from the back but Romero sensed it and dodged the attack.
Romero: You know, that is cheating. You guys are using weapons without telling. If you guys are using weapons, let me use my weapon too. Eidrin then grabbed the sword that he was hiding. Various thieves rushed towards him but Romero slashed out everyone. Romero still didn't kill any of them, he just wanted to defeat them. Everyone around there got shocked after witnessing Romero's skill. Marina realised that Romero isn't an ordinary person.
Soldier 2: That guy is pretty good. I don't ever thought in my wildest dreams that some one that actually look this free will defeat this much people by his own.
Soldier 1: Yeah he is pretty good.
Soldier 1 (Thought): No way, he is impressing the princess. It should be me, not him.

Romero to thief 2: So, are you leaving her or no?
Thief 2: Huh. You are pretty good, lad but you can't fear me with that. If you move further, I will kill her now.
Romero: Oh! So you are blackmailing me now. Okay, her life is very precious for me. Don't kill her I surrounder.

Merina blushed after hearing Romero's words
Thief 2 (by laughing): So you are surroundering, aren’t you........
Suddenly, Romero resched in the back of the thief with super human speed, by using his warrior madness and knocked him out and freed Marina. Marina gone tomfall intomthe ground but Romero caught her and took her in his arm. Their eyes got locked and they stood still.
Soldier 1: What is this all!
Romero to Marina by leaving her from his arm: Sorry, I don't meant to.....
Suddenly, thief 2 attacked Romero again.
Romero: So you want more huh.
Thief 2: I am gonna cut you into pieces.
Romero: Okay. We will see.

At the same time, Eidrin reached in a dark room after following Zen. He looked all around and didn't find Zen. Suddenly from nowhere, Zen rushed out. Eidrin sensed it but Zen still managed to make a cut on Eidrin's chest.
At first, Eidrin holded on his wound with pain, then he looked toward Zen like a lion glazing at his pary. He then smiled looking at Zen.
Eidrin: So atlast you came in my front.
Zen: Yeah and I am gonna end you now.
Eidrin: We will see.
Then a regerous fight occured between Eidrin and Zen. Zen fought suing his pair of sabers. Eidrin countered every attack of Zen with his sword. Their blades clashed. Then, Eidrin jumped and with an insane speed, he delivered two cuts on Zen's chest.
Eidrin: Now, do youl feel the pain?
Zen: What! It can't be....!
Zen then rushed to escape. Eidrin also ran behind him to caught him. Zen then mounted on his horse and tried to escaped. Eidrin wasn't ready to give up anyway. He also mounted on his horse and chased Zen.
Eidrin(to himself): That damn Zen. He is been putting me in the trouble for some days. I am not gonna leave him freely, no matter what.

In the other side, Romero had defeated the thief.
Thief 2: No! It can't be. I will not lose to someone like you.
Romero: Just accept it man. Am not gonna kill you anyway. Go and stop troubling people anymore.

At that time, everyone stared at Ro,ero with amaze.
A man from the crowd: Hey.... Aren’t the Romero of the Francia?
Romero: What? Yes I am Romero. I don't know that I was this much popular.
Marina: Romero, thankyou for saving me.
Romero: No problem. It wasn't a big deal for me. Anyway, I Don think staying here for much more time will cause you much more problem.
Marina: Okay, I understood.
Soldier 2: We had sent letter to prince Lucaris. He will arrive here soon.
Romero(to himeslf): Now who is this Lucaris?
Romero to Marina: Until then, I will stay here to protect you.
Marina (blushing): Thanks a lot for your kindness
