"You didn't wait for me De'Wa!" Rence angrily said to De'Wa
"Did you know who you just faced? it's the Supreme Knight, He is a Celestial like you! Rence said as he is very angry.
"Dehahahaha! I know, I know Rence, Chill you are over heating" De'Wa then laughed as she replied to Rence.
"Thank you for helping me escaped Dehahaha!" "I really wanna fight that Knight *Smirked* But I know I'll be scolded again Dehahaha!" De'Wa then replied with joy.
"You are really a crazy one, why you didn't wait for me? You know it is too dangerous to go with your own, knowing that the two kingdoms are in high alert" Rence then scolded De'Wa.
"Nothing to worry about Rence, we are together now" De'Wa then replied as they stroll the woods.
"By the way we should tell this to father, that the Estians are doing a hunt against us"
"We need to go back to the sub camp and tell this to father. Let's go Rence" De'Wa said.
"But what if we encounter them again on are way to the sub camp?" Rence then replied.
"Don't worry about that, because I manage to take down three of his men" De'Wa replied as they change path and walk back to where the sub camp is located.
"Those men I faced are not ordinary knights, They seems to be way more better and strong, compared to those who we always fought when we sometimes intercepts Estians goods" De'Wa tell this to Rence, as her face seems to be more serious.
"Alright lets hurry up, so that we can make it on time, father is still on the camp if I'm right" Rence then replied as they start to run.
The sub camp is located up on a tree. That is why both Estians and Maslih can't easily find where bandits are camping and hiding. Below the tree is Josu and Kar who are staying there to guard and to wait for Alexor's order. Alexor is on the hut and having a conversation with 'E'.
"De'Wa and Rence are already going back to main camp. I already let them go while Kar and Josu are down below, waiting for us"
"Are you already alright son?" Alexor said and asked 'E'.
"I'm doing fine father, no need to worry. I can already walk and we can already go home" 'E' replied.
"I am happy to hear that son. Next time please be more careful, I can not afford to lose any one of you"
"Your mother already left us because of my wrong doings, I will not going to let that happened again"
"Mother died protecting her children, please don't blame your self for what happened father, it was already been 20 years since that Jiffrits killed our mother."
"I just don't want it to happened again. That is why I trained you ever since, to become strong so that you can defend your selves. But please, my son, be much more careful next time. I know how much you care about others well being. But please be more careful okay?" Alexor said with a worried voice.
"Yes father, I'll promise that". 'E' then replied.
"I am already becoming older and weak, and when the time comes, you will be the one who lead this family"
"We are not yet ready for that father, you will not leave us until we fulfill our dreams!" 'E' said this cheerfully.
"You always reminds me of your mother, your positive attitude is very much like her" Alexor said with a smiling face.
"I'll putting up my clothes, so we can go father!" 'E' said this joyfully.
"Alright, I'll be waiting down below, take your time son" Alexor said this as he stands up and make his way outside and go down below the tree.
'E' then put his clothes on and grab his weapons, as he about to go out. He also carried the injured mother wolf with him. The mother wolf seems to be half awake, but didn't react violently towards 'E'. It seems to know 'E' and she is aware that the man who carries her is the man who saved her.
"You are going to be alright mother wolf" 'E' said this as the mother wolf wag its tail and made a happy whining sound. 'E' then goes out and goes down while carrying the mother wolf.
Alexor and the rest are waiting for 'E' to come down. On a far distance two familiar persons are heading towards their location. It is Rence and De'Wa who is in a hurry.
"Father!" De'Wa shouted as they are now closer to the group.
*huff huff* "Thanks that we caught up with you father, we have something to say..." Rence then said as he is panting.
"We are about to go son, Catch your breath first and speak up" Alexor then replied.
"What is it that you need come back? did you forgot something?" Alexor wondering why De'Wa and Rence came back.
"What is it daughter?" Alexor then asked De'Wa
"It is about the Estians, I encountered them on my way back to the main camp. And I fought some of them. They are just a small group" De'Wa then replied.
"What? didn't I told you already that do not engage in to a fight with both Maslih and Estians?" Angrily Alexor said.
"Father, they attacked me, and they are hunting us down. They want to capture us" De'Wa answered.
"What?" Josu and Kar said.
"Is that so? I guess they want us to be captured so that they can focus on the War against Maslih, They think that we will be a threat to them. Or they think that we might be an obstacle to their path" Alexor then said.
"De'Wa almost fought the Supreme Knight" Rence then spoke up.
"Did he saw your weapon De'Wa?" Alexor asked.
"Yes father, he recognized it. Because the cover cloth of my weapon was destroyed by an attack made by one of the Estians."
"This is bad, now they already know that there are two Celestials on our side" Alexor then said with a worried tone of voice.
"The next time they will make a move against us will be a big battle, because I know that they will bring an Order or maybe more than that, just to capture us" Alexor said this.
"We need to go back now to the main camp together, and alert the other sub camps about the possible hunt" Alexor said.
"I thought you guys are already on your way to the main camp?" 'E' said this as he interrupt the conversation. He already standing behind the group.
"E! Brother! you are awake and looking fine!" De'Wa shouted happily with joy as he hugs 'E'.
"Aw aw.." 'E' reacts as his wound was touched by De'Wa.
"Dehahaha! pardon me brother, I am just happy to see you fine!" De'Wa said laughing.
"So what are you guys talking about?" 'E' asked.
"We need to go now son, We will talk about it later when we already on the main camp. Can you use the zipps 'E'?" Alexor then asked to 'E'.
"Yes father, I can manage to use it even with this wounds" 'E' replied.
"Alright, we will use the zipps to go home safely. Josu , Kar and Rence prepare the zipps" Alexor said as he order the group to move and prepare the zipps.
"Let me carry that mother wolf brother" De'Wa said this to 'E' as she holds the mother wolf and carries it with her.
"Thank you De'Wa" 'E' then replied.
The bandits then prepared the zipps. It is the safest way to go back home. They are now on their way back to the main camp.
