The map

With Vivien calling my name as loud as she can, right now, one guard looked at me and screamed “SOMEONE’S ESCAPING.” The royal knights and the prison guards started to look in my direction and started to run towards me. They put their large shield in front of them and rushed me. As they were approaching me, two large swords fell from the sky and plummeted to the ground. The first sword was engraved with a dragon on its blade and the second was a tiger “here protect yourself” Vivien shouted. I pulled the swords out of the ground and walked towards the incoming attack. “~AURA OF THE KINGS~” The massive dark aura surrounds me and the people in front of me felt the heavy pressure. “KNEEL” The knights and the guards kneel before me, the pressure they felt was so heavy and dominating that they couldn’t even refuse my command but one prisoner ran towards me as if my aura was nothing. A man with long brown hair wearing shabby thin clothes. I was surprised by how strong this person is if he can handle my aura. The man stood in front of me and his eyes were so serious and unyielding. He said calmly, “don’t kill them, for they didn’t know what they had done.” And I asked him to test his determination. “Can you shoulder their wrongdoings, just to save them?” He immediately answered while looking at me with his piercing gaze. “YES. yes, I can.” I walked closer to him and said, “Then accept your fate.” He closed his eyes and prepared himself to die. The two swords that I was holding started to disappear and fade away. “~WATER BALL~” A ball of water as huge as the prison appeared on top of me. Everyone was afraid and scared, they started screaming but the man just stood there ready to die. “~HEAT~ Combination attack ~HIDDEN MIST~” The huge ball of water started to evaporate to a thick mist that covered the whole prison. As I was walking away the man spoke to me once again, “Greed, huh. You have a nice name… but don't forget to give, as you receive.” I looked back at him but he was gone in the mist and it’s time for us to leave so I screamed, ”Vivien. Let’s go.” Vivien shouted in the fog “ALRIGHT!!! Let’s go. Where are you? I can’t see you.” And I thought to myself. “Why am I so stupid sometimes?” “GREED. COME HERE.” Vivien turned herself into a sword and her body glowed in the fog so that I could see her. I immediately ran towards her direction and picked her up. “Let’s get out of here, and finish our mission.” … *Donsul town* Vivien gave me a hooded robe, “Here wear this mantle to cover up your armor for a while.” While we were walking on the streets, we decided to go into an alleyway and talk about our quest. I asked her, “So what’s the name of our target this time?” She replied, “I think his name is Lupin Barabbas. A notorious thief that got caught a week ago for stealing something in the palace.” I asked her again, “What did he steal??”  She said calmly and professionally, “No one knows but he said he stole something valuable in order to be the king of Avalon. His punishment would be discussed tomorrow and that’s the perfect time to get him.” *the next day* In the middle of the town, a stage was set and the townspeople were gathering. This scene was so familiar to me and it pulled my heartstrings just thinking about the past but I’m sorry you have to die and we’re here to make sure that it happens. One of the soldiers walked on the stage pulling lupin with a chain on his neck, arms, and feet. “The trial will begin but just a few days ago, we captured someone who is preaching that he can save us all. passing his false information and spreading his influence through the children and elderly, and claiming himself to be the king.” Everyone started laughing but as I looked at the man they were talking about, what I saw was the long-haired prisoner who I let go. I thought that he would try to escape and get away from them but he stayed in the prison but whatever the case is, HE IS A KING. As the people were laughing, they started to get annoyed by what the man told their children because they might believe him. They got mad and shouted at him, “Ponsius Caesar is the only king in our eyes, Ponsius will unite the kingdom, Caesar will be the king, Caesar is more worthy than you. You’ll never be a king.”  Lupin started laughing hysterically at what the people are saying and one citizen asked him “why are you laughing? Is it funny that our children are being manipulated by this so-called king? HUH!!” Lupin shouted “I AM NOT LAUGHING BECAUSE YOU’RE INSULTING HIM, NOR AM I LAUGHING BECAUSE OF YOUR CHILDREN ARE BEING MANIPULATED. I’M LAUGHING BECAUSE YOU, PEOPLE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IT IS TO BE A TRUE KING.”  “SILENCE” A man in a red cape and a pure white tunic with a golden sash appeared on the stage. “I am Ponsius Caesar, the man who will conquer the Avalon kingdom, and today we are here to witness the death of these two individuals. Yeshua Imperium, a man who is spreading rumors that he is the king, and Lupin Barabbas, a man who stole from the palace.” A man in the crowd shouted, “what did he steal though?” Lupin smiled and replied immediately as if he was waiting for someone to ask. “What, you asked. HAHAHA, I stole a map that king Arthur wrote himself. It was a lead to a secret place where a dragon resides and questionable creatures of elements can be seen. It is said that King Arthur pulled the heavenly sword and engraved his name on it, it was a sword that sliced the heaven and made the grounds crumble, and whoever found it shall not only rule Avalon… BUT THE WHOLE WOR-.”  *BSHH* One of Vivien’s golden swords dropped from the sky and killed Lupin Immediately and it caused a scene. The people started screaming in panic, they began to run in every direction and the knights protected Ponsius. I grabbed Vivien by the hand and said to her in a hurry, “We need to get away from him immediately.” She stopped walking and replied to me, “Not yet. I need to find that map and destroy it or else something might happen.” I exclaimed “But where will you find it? The person that knows it is already dead.” She answered, “I don’t know… but still I need to find it and we’ll start in his house”
