Chapter 2 -- Part 8 (Book 1 - Fantasy World)

“How could the man not see the evil men with swords right there?” Samantha thought to herself.

“Hello there!” The man called out to all of them, looking completely relaxed.

Behind him, another beautiful lady came out, but she was wearing a leather outfit. Another lady came out, but she looked like a regular village lady, like her mother. Standing behind them were three pretty maids standing in a line.

“Maybe they did come for a picnic?” Samantha thought to herself. Looking up at her mother, she asked, “Mommy, are those bad men going to kill the pretty ladies?”

Her mother didn’t say anything and just held her closer.

“Whoa!! Those are some lovely-looking women you got there!” The evil man in front yelled out. “You look a bit lost? How about you leave behind those lovely-looking whores, get back into your fancy carriage, and be on your way?”

The man laughed and said, “I’m having appalling luck with people today. First, I go to a village that treats people like crap, and now I’m dealing with stereotypical evil soldiers. Is there any way you could be more cliché?”

The evil men didn’t look happy at the man laughing at them and turned towards him, holding their swords menacingly. “I tried to be a gentleman, but we’ll need to treat this noble brat a lesson. Make sure you don’t hurt the woman. I get first dibs on all of them, and the rest of you can share after I’m done.”

“Captain, you’re so generous!” One of the men yelled out amongst the cheering of the other men.

Aside from the village lady, none of the people standing next to the carriage looked frightened. Samantha looked confused since there were so many evil men but only one man.

“Jake, we need to help those people out!” Her daddy told her brother.

Getting his sword ready, Jake said, “yes, father!”

The lady in leather suddenly made a big sword appear without any indication, and she jumped at the evil men. Swinging her giant sword, the bad men were killed one by one. The horses the men sat on top of were cut cleanly in half, blood exploding and raining down.

“What are you doing!!!??? Hurry up and stop her. She’s just one woman!!” The man shouted at the other evil men.

The lady kept killing the evil men, bathing the grass in blood until it looked like a small lake of blood had formed.

Samantha’s father and Jake stood there stunned, no longer trying to help. Even though her brother was powerful with a sword, Samantha didn’t think Jake could beat that woman.

When the beautiful lady killed the captain, she made her sword disappear and walked back to the man.

The man kissed the lovely lady and walked toward her father and brother. Before he reached the blood, he waved his hand and made the blood disappear.

Jake and her father put away their swords, and her mother and Samantha ambled to rejoin them. When her father looked back at them to ensure they were okay, he saw her mother’s injury.

Her mother was pale and leaned heavily on her. Samantha was a big girl, so she tried her best to support her mother.

When the man came closer, followed by the pretty ladies, he said, “Oh my, that looks pretty serious. I hope that one of you is a doctor, considering how the nearest village is still ways away and too far for her. If you don’t get her some medical attention quickly, I don’t believe she will make it. At the rate she’s bleeding, I estimate she’ll pass away in less than an hour, so I advise you to act with haste.”

“My Lord, please, would you be willing to take my wife, in your carriage, to the village? If it’s payment, I have the money to pay. I beg you, my Lord!” Samantha’s father sobbed, pleading to the young Lord.

The young Lord tilted his head as if considering it, looking as if this whole situation was a hassle, and coldly said, “I don’t feel like doing that.”

Her father dropped to his knees, pressed his forehead to the ground, and begged, “my Lord, I will do anything if you can save my wife!!! PLEASE!!”

Looking bored by the spectacle of her father kneeling in front of him, he merely said, “How about I do this instead.” And just raised his left hand and snapped his finger.

Her father looked up in confusion and turned about to ask the young Lord what he meant when her mother suddenly exclaimed, “Honey, I’m healed!”

Her father, Jake, and Samantha looked at her mother, wondering what she was talking about. They saw that the wound on her leg was gone.

Staring at the place soaked with blood, she now only saw clean clothing.

All of them looked at the young lord, who was smiling and calmly said, “Isn’t this a better solution?”
