Thick Princess is Dying

In the cold night they carried the wood as the guard with them who scouted their path said, "There is a village out here, before the swamp!" Maria was terrified, "They killed everyone didn't they?" The guard looked down in shame. "What village?" Adam didn't knew about it, "We are about to enter it, watch for yourself" in the darkness of night they entered the village, there weren't any torches lit up so the guard who scouted for them handed one to both, "Let's go" they hopped off of the cart and walked on the ground that had stickiness to it, "What the fuck is this?" he looked down and lowered his torch, It was blood all over the ground till some small huts and a big one in the middle that was probably the town hall, they walked their way in the village only to realize that there was nothing left except empty huts and more blood, "What happened here? A demon raid?" he asked as Maria felt like puking after seeing so much blood, "This is a raid of course, it's fresh, Lord where are the people and the bodies".

"There is a cave nearby, the guard said, we can look to it too if both of you accompany me" they nodded to him as they moved ahead to it. The cave was not so far away from the village and was even darker, they walked in it just waving their torches by the walls of the cave only to see blood and help message scratched to it's depths, "Anyone…." Maria was more disheartened than Adam. They couldn't see anything in distance, they walked unknown of what's ahead and soon a tunnel that was well lit became visible, they walked towards it when they started hearing some noises, "Get them, one by one get them" the sound was of a demon clearly, by his pitch, "We have feast for days!" another sound came, they finally made it to the end of the tunnel only to see that there were some demon guards torturing the humans of the village, they had women and children captive in the cells that were made out of stone rods, they were cutting limbs of what looked like already unconscious men, "What the fuck is going on here?!" Maria couldn't control her anger.

"How did you got here?!" one of the demon guard who had a sword in his hand walked to Maria gripping his weapon, he was about to raise it on her but suddenly time stopped for him, he looked to his left and saw a hand, fisting, coming for his face, he tried his best to duck in time but he couldn't, the punch landed on his face and like a jet, he went flying in the walls of that room, the cave shook for a good bit until everything calmed down and the dust was settling, neither the captive nor Maria and the guard knew what happened, only after then dust settled all ten of the guards present at that moment were laying dead on the grounds of that cave, "What happened?!" she turned to her left and couldn't find Adam, he stood at the cells where captives were kept, he smacked opened those cells and they came out in fear, "Wha-What did you just did?" the guard with them peed in his armor, "Well, I punch one of them, kicked some of them, sat on faces of few also, butt slaps".

He smiled as Maria thought to herself that she might need sometime to adapt to an abnormal hero, "Don't worry guys…." She held her hand up and came forth to those captives, "We are from the royalty…. Here to help…." The kids turned their faces towards their mothers and cried. Mothers held their tears back, she counted, she turned to Adam, "Fifty, you fat man, fifty lives you saved in less then five seconds".

Back at the castle in Asadonia's capital it was late in night, Stella was still awake, she had a knock on her door, she opened it with a sword in her hand only to see it was her sister, "What took you so long?" Alnidha said as she kept her sword aside since Alnidha couldn't see. "What are you doing here?" she had a bold tone to her, "I am done running away Stella, talk, I need to talk" she still had her guard up but pulled Alnidha's chair in her room left by the guard and locked the doors, "What?" She took support of the door and leaned. Alnidha removed her hood that she had herself under, it was black, she wrapped it around her neck, it also kept her from feeling cold, she had a silver eye cover that looked like the crown that king had except it was inverted covering her eyes and portion of the face.

Her hair, white like snow instead of being black and usual, she had tears running down her inverted crown, "What the happened?!" Stella was shocked as she came closer and ran her hand over her silky white hair, "I am out of time Stella, it's the Samoral Virus" she looked down on herself and Stella couldn't take it all down her throat, "No, no way, you are lying" she pulled the gesture of admin,

She held her hands and looked above, she didn't knew if Stella was crying, she couldn't see, "Can we please talk, I think I must" she rolled off her tears and they both sat right besides the window that had a perfect view of the moon and the stars surrounding it, "What did you wanted to talk?"

"I am not much of a sneaky person but I know you overheard me and father in the room".

"Yes, I did" she looked away from her, "Well, you know how little you were when mother died? I thought I could be a mother to you, I thought I could handle it so I told father to stay away from your high temperament and offensive behavior, part of which shaped you the warrior you are today, I failed at that miserably didn't I? I don't really have much time so I'll say it now, I am sorry" she couldn't make herself to look at Alnidha who already looked down.

"Well, besides that, the stories I was not able to convey to you, the ones that mother used to tell me, one of which I think I need to tell you before I die, the story of Sandar Gletch, the abnormal hero whom everyone took pride in since he was so strong that no one could stand against him, he killed masses in seconds, strongest of humans and demons, even the current demon Lord, Drokonna was his slave, they had nothing on him. All of this because he was abnormal, he had a throne gifted to him, one that gifted him the human nature of greed and selfishness. It devoured him so he unleashed his wrath, they call the struggles of one fifty years ago, world war, it was just a person versus the entire world, we lost for decades till he one day vanished amongst the shady clouds yelling that he will return.

"If you are trying to convince me to oppose the summon, I won't" Alnidha was not surprised, "I have my values, I know what he is capable of. I am, as of now, indebt of him saving so many of troops of what couldv'e been the last fight of their lives and saving me, from who knows what the outcome would've been. Who was Sandar? was he fat? did he wore some clown outfit when he was summoned? Did he dreamt of food and harem when he was alone? They are different, both of them".

"They may be different but the share the same trait, heroes summoned for the betterment, may be Sandar and him don't have much in common but do you have plans for the day Adam becomes Sandar?" she was speechless for a brief moment, Alnidha had a smile, "I know you don't….she turned her head towards the window, "if you won't stop him, I won't stop the word of him being abnormal to hit the Noble lands and peasant fields, let people know too, they are in for a ride, aren't they?"
