Chapter 12:

The freedom I seek

The unknown one


Since when did I last smile, I said in my though, Oh, right it was a long time ago, "Hey Rian, hurry up we need to prepare the thing we needed for the hunt" He said, "Yeah, I know" I said,

while everyone was packing their things I goes into the woods to take a stroll, It was peaceful and everything around was calm I wish everything would be like this, As I walk back toward the camp I saw a smoke coming from it I rushed towards it only to see that it was in flame all the people I know dead right in front of me, I saw my first friend alive while puking out blood he said to me "Run, Rian I want you *cough* to survive" With his last breath he died tears from my eyes grow as I cried hard, I want him back But I can't do anything.

Everything started to fall apart, my happiness everything I've lost it all with no choice I came back at my village there everyone greets me and ask where is my friend I just remained silent everyone knows what happened to him when I became silent they all tried to cheer me up but failed I want to be happy again, After a couple weeks a soldier came at the village everyone gathered around him as he say "To everyone wants to be a hunter You can all sign in at the town or the kingdom it is free you just need to past the test, you can earn a lot of money by doing it" Everyone was amaze by hearing that, After the soldier left everyone talks about it But I didn't mind I only want to stay at home, But the nice neighbors keep insisting that I would come, after a while I agreed but with a heavy heart.

The villager started heading towards the town but a barrage of arrow cam flying toward the villagers everyone was shot in front of me I yelled at the others "It's a trap!" the villagers heard it but it was to late, we are ambushed by the soldiers everyone tried to fight back but failed, While I was fighting I saw everyone fall in front of me one by one until I was the last one I kept fighting even though I was gonna lose I felt like if I run or surrender My life would be meaningless I was never that great at loving or expressing my feelings everything I wanted is freedom, If I ever survive this I will take revenge and live a happy life.

as my heart focused on one goal Everything became clear to me now "I want to survive" As I said that word everything around me got knocked back by the winds, it was calm but dangerous at the same time everyone around me felt that feeling and started to back away, without hesitation I snapped my fingers all of the soldiers around me slowly lose oxygen, until they all died, Did I regret it? I don't know But that was the first time I ever felt alive then I remember my goal freedom with no hesitation I walked toward the kingdom Many soldiers has blocked my way but failed everyone falls into eternal sleep, They take away everything from the I'll take away it too I said with a resolute mind As I walked at the kingdom's ground An army blocked my way with no choice I fight, I snapped and everyone loses their breath but some remain healthy and untouched "I summon a great catastrophe the one that will end it all" I said with a loud voice, with that A large beast came out from a thin air everyone tried to slash it with their sword but failed to hit it, the beast cause a bloody war everything was covered in blood As the army was busy dealing with the beast I slowly walked toward the entrance some soldiers blocked the entrance "wind of freedom" As I say that word, the soldiers completely lose their mind and does what ever they want, As I walk toward the castle I saw all the peoples hiding in their own house I felt like I've done something bad to them.

As I arrived at the castle's entrance The royal guard blocked the entrance and started to fight me it was a breeze beating them but hard at the same time, As I enter the throne room The king sitting their looking frightened "W-what do you want" The king said frightened, "Do you need money I can give it to you Just spare me please", I laughed at what he said and I said to him coldly "There's thing that money can't buy" With that I crushed his head using my magic, blood spurted around the room "It is finally over" I said.

A decade has passed since the war I was living my whole life happily Smiling at a grass field like it was never gonna end, it's true it never end my freedom until I died, is my dream finally come true? is it? yeah I think so.
