Seeing Someone Important

Yuuka instantly hid in the shadow after recuperating for a second. He did not expect from the assassin. They needed his safety but were hostile to anyone around his central captain core.

"Where did that sound come from?!"

"Watch out, there might the around here! Stay on guard and look for them."

The nearby soldier was now active and looking for enemy soldiers; Yuuka could not have been in the worst position.

If he was to go out now, the soldiers might see the body of the dead body and shoot him without a thought. His face was not visible in the night, and the archers at the castle were also active.

"I need to call them before they find the body..."

Yuuka couldn't see the distance between him in the nearby soldiers, so he turned and moved to look at them-

"Kronk?!!! Look, oye are you ok!!"

The soldiers had already found the body and happened to know the name of the man Yuuka walked alongside during the entire forest journey.

"I didn't even ask for his name?"

For a short second, a thought came into Yuuka's mind. He felt guilty once more for his actions, but he could not mourn the dead; he needed to check the situation first.

"Look, the killer must be nearby."

The soldiers engaged in their comrade's death now looked for his killer in the woods where Yuuuka did the situation wasn't looking in Yuuka's favour.

"I need to reveal myself or hide past them."

Yuuka analysed both options and found which one was needed for him.

"I'm here-"

He revealed himself to the soldiers, thinking he could easily be recognisable to his men.

"He's there! In the woods! Shoot!"

Without thinking, the two soldiers began shooting near Yuuka, he could hear the bullets passing left and right.

"Come out, you bastard! I'll show you hell on earth! You fucker"

A barrage of abuse came to Yuuka's ears, some he hadn't heard before. All of them insulted him, his family and whatnot.

But he needed to get in contact with them., instead of hearing them abuse his existence.

"It's your commander! Mind your Language, I came from the castle to meet Captain Quince. Take me to him."

"Huh..."

The soldier froze for a second, and Yuuka quickly glanced at the standing soldier and found him quite familiar, but there was something odd...

"I don't believe our captain proves your validity."

"I am Yuuka Sakaguchi, and my wife's name is Freya Sakaguchi, and your name is Rag Alberto, I think that's enough proof."

Yuuka glanced at the soldier again, who looked worried instead of shocked.

'I think it's really the commander don't att-"

'!!"

A soldier burst from the shadows of the trees with his gun in hand, ready to shoot,

"Got you."

'!!!"

But it was Yuuka who delivered the shock factor in this situation, he was already set on his feet, ready for an ambush, as he saw only one soldier standing.

"You-"

He instantly saw the intent of the soldier filled with blood thirst, and he moved.

He grabbed the head of the gun, pushing it down, taking advantage of its length, which made it easy to push it aside; he then grabbed the soldier's right hand and kicked his knees.

"Ahh.."

the kick did a lot of damage to the soldier, and then Yuuka pushed him down, putting him down on the ground and rendering him immobilised.

"Oye, what happened?!"

The other soldier, now with a light in hand, came running to Yuuka. The light shinned upon Yuuka sitting on the immobilised soldier.

'Take me to Rargo right now, I need to have a short chat with him, and I need to leave quickly. So, prepare the horse and get him medical attention; his knee seems to be hurt badly."

Yuuka said, all while getting up and removing the dust from his clothes; the soldier had also released what he did and was already thinking about his punishment.

"No need to feel bad; you won't be punished. you did what is better to do in a war but do work on your hand-to-hand combat skills."

All things became normal as forces were called, and Yuuka walked to Rargo's camp with another soldier beside him. He carried a worried expression on his face.

"Is there a problem?"

Yukka inquired about the reason for such an expression but the soldier.

"No, Sir, it's just that Captain Quince had refused to meet anybody since noon last day. He also isn't taking meals, and now you appear suddenly after such a huge-looking disaster..."

No more was required to say what the soldier wanted to convey. After all, the attack during the night two days ago had a harsh effect on Rargo since he was ordered to just watch and not act.

"What's precisely why I want to meet him? I need to discuss something important with him."

Yuuka needed to talk to Quince and put this peace of mind together.

While in the castle far away from the capital, Asina walked in a dark corridor, her breaths were heavy, and her pace was fast. She held a dim torch as her only source of light as she arrives before a small door.

It was a plain-looking door and had a keyhole; Milize brought out the key from her uniform's pocket.

The door was opened as she inserted the key and walked inside the room.

"..."

The room was filled with silence, not a sound, it was cold inside the room, and it felt like a museum filled with gold, photos, and tables but in the middle of the material gold lay the thing which was Milize's true treasure.

In the middle of the room, lying on the bed, was a man, with his eyes closed he was physically looking malnourished but he was still breathing and kept on living somehow.

"I'm back again, it was been a while, Father."
