Thirty minutes have passed, I think, and we have not reached our destination. It would have been a good idea to ask Fiona what the destination is until this Kingdom, which is said to be very rich in natural resources and magic. as we were still talking about magic, I decided to do something that would make your time go by faster. I'll check out some new spells in my beginner spellbook.
While I opened the book I realize something, I never saw the spell on page one of two hundred and fifty that spell, whose name is Mississippi Queen. It says in the book: "This, not quite powerful, the spell can make the one affected to feel like a man who has drunk like twenty beers and eighteen wines in just one swallow". After I read that, my curiosity wanted to try this on myself, but I decided to not do this because I don't want the same thing that happened a few days ago with those bandits.
After reading that spell, I began to turn the pages of that book fairly quickly because half of the two hundred and fifty already know them a bit, both in name and handling. After a few moments, I close the book, put it back, and look at the windows of the carriage I am in to guard those goods. As I looked out the window I noticed only trees that looked older than me, to stones that were carved in different shapes and I noticed something else, a bear walking. That bear was not close to us, but I could see it walking through the bushes and hitting them because of its size. After not seeing that bear, I returned to my place where a person has to stay when travelling by carriage and has to wait until he reaches the desired destination.
"I'm bored," I say to myself while I looked at my wand. "I can't practice spell because I'm afraid I could fail this mission and destroy the goods by mistakes.".
So, I can't do spell practice or leave the carriage so the only thing I could do is to sleep, which is a good idea because last night Fiona didn't let me sleep alone like I was supposed to do. I take the position I take when I have to sleep in a bed and start doing the exercise I do before so I can sleep faster and sleep on the log. I hold my breath for about a minute, then exhale for five seconds, after which I begin to hold my breath again until I fall asleep. It didn't take long and I fell asleep just like a man who was hit by thousands of arrows on a battlefield.
While I was asleep, I had the same dream I had at the Orphanage but this time, it was different. When I had that dream, I haven't seen the face of that man with those two weird staff, but in this one, I didn't see the face, just his beard who is long and white meaning that person is really old. Still to this day, I have no idea what does this dream meaning and I hope the meaning will be a good one.
After a few minutes, the carriage suddenly stopped moving which makes me fell from that thing I was asleep and wake up after I land on some boxes. I looked around panicked but it was nothing in the carriage, after a few seconds, Fiona opened the door of the carriage and says to me.
"Come on, boy! We have some things to clean up."
"Alright," I respond after I take my wand and goes with Fiona to the place where we have to do our job.
When I left the carriage, I saw Ron and Marcus fighting a few wolves who aren't infected, but the normal ones. I and Fiona have to fight other wild animals, who are way too powerful than one single wolf, four bears. Fiona has taken her giant sword and start to swing at those bears, and I decided to use the spells "Dancin" to those bears to make them not attack Fiona while she kills them. All the bears who were dancing, become dead in a few seconds because of Fiona.
We finished with those bears, then Fiona says to me.
"We have to help the others, boy! Use the magic on those wolves!"
"I'm on it!" I say to Fiona going to Marcus and Ron to help them killing those wolves.
While I was running to them, I take the wand and used the spell "T.N.T" on those wolves. Just a single spell has made three wolves flying and the other eight comes to attack me because I am a bigger threat than those two. I used other spells to those wolves, the one "Dancin", but that spell worked on just six wolves because the other two were about to attack me. I dodge their attacks and use the "T.N.T" spell on them who made them fly in the forest. After that, I looked at wolves who are dancing weird and use the "T.N.T." spell to them kill them and made them fly.
Marcus and Ron come to me. Marcus and I are doing a high-five and with Ron, we just fist-bump for a good job for doing a good job protecting them from those wolves. After that, Fiona told us to go back to protecting the carriages and to be vigilant at the next attacks, who are probably going to be sooner because of the sound spell and voice I was doing while I used those spells to kill the wolves and bears.
Marcus and the other goes to their carriage they had to protect their goods, and I was going to mine to rest a little bit because those spells have drained my whole energy. Even though I was asleep for a few moments, I still fell asleep and without energy. I get on my carriage, sit on the bench that is attached to the walls of the carriage and decide to sleep again while they were moving to the Kingdom of Hungary.
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
While I was asleep, I had a dream, but this one wasn't like the other with an old man and a white beard. This one, was different because it was me and a girl who were fighting a few weird creatures who I have never seen them. I used the spell that could help me to protect her and to attack those creatures. The spell I used I have no idea what they mean, but one of them I could hear their pronounce, "Thunderstorm" which makes those creatures shake uncontrollable and then dies. The girl and I were fighting three of those creatures. I noticed something when I saw me fighting, I didn't use the wand I had, but staff who I haven't seen in my entire life, and another weird about me in this dream was my hair, it was a long one instead of a short one like I have right now. I don't know what kind of dream is this but it's probably something that can happen to everybody.
When those two finished the fighting, they look at each other and then started to speak.
"You did well." says the dream version of me to that girl.
"Thanks," she replies. "You also fight well."
"It was nothing. Just some wolves. I beat those creatures very regularly."
"If you say so."
The girl approaches my dream version and she kissed him... on the lips. I was disgusted when she did that because that is so disgusting even for a criminal who has to be put in a prison full of corpses who are started to smell like a rotten corpse. I close my eyes while those two will end the kissing scene and wait until they are going to leave, but when I close my eyes, I wake up from sleep and landed in reality. That sleep was short, so I decided to try to sleep again, but It didn't work so I stayed awake until Fiona comes to the carriage and tell me we have arrived, which it takes almost one hour later when she did that.
I left the carriage with my wand and then I follow Fiona, Marcus, and Ron, who are heading to the Hungarian Palace. While I was walking at this place, I observed with my eyes so many things I didn't encounter in the Romania Kingdom, like a building where merchants sell armour and weapons that aren't probably made by blacksmiths. In our Kingdom, I heard it is illegal to sell armour if you are a merchant, but if you are a blacksmith, you sell them without problems, this thing doesn't apply to the merchants who sell magic objects, like wands, spellbooks or potions. Fiona and Marcus talked to each other about the things we have encountered while we were travelling with the carriages. Ron looked at a shop and ask me.
"Are you a bounty hunter?"
"Bounty hunter?" I asked Ron and then look at Fiona, who didn't hear Ron. "No. I'm not. Why?"
"I just wanted to ask. To be sure."
"I see..."
"Aren't you going to ask if I am a bounty hunter?" asked Ron after a while.
"No. I believe you are not."
"How can you tell?"
"Instinct," I say to Ron when we arrived at the front gates of the palace.
Three guards come to us and asked about a knight and our squire's licenses. Fiona and Marcus handed their licenses and ours to the guards to read them. Those guards looked at those parchments, they handed back after a while and after that they let us enter the palace to discuss with the king. While we are walking in the Palace, I started to act nervous because this will be my first discussion with a true nobleman in a true noble family.
We climb up the stairs until we arrive on the six-floor, where is most probably the place where the King is waiting for his guests or his knights and squires like us who have come from other Kingdom to deliver goods to his own Kingdom. Fiona knocked on the door as a sign to open the door. Ron and I were nervous, but Marcus and Fiona weren't nervous at all, instead, they are happy. Why they feel so calm while I and Ron feel like we are in Hell because we were frame by some barbarians in the killing.
The door opened by two knights who let us goes to the King throne. At first, I didn't know what to say when I saw the throne and the King, who happens to not be a King, but a Queen. The Queen looks like a normal queen with short red hair, royal clothes, a crow for queens, red eyes with black pupils, and having one missing arm. Ron and I were so scared because of her appearance, but Marcus and Fiona looked at her smiling.
"Long time long saw, your majesty," says Fiona to Queen.
"Hello, Fiona," says Queen to Fiona while she makes a royal bow with Marcus.
I and Ron did the same royal bow to show respect to Queen for letting us entering the Royal Palace and then letting us walk around the Kingdom. The Queen looked at us, and then she asks Marcus.
"Another one, Marcus. What happened to the girl?"
"Well... She decided to run away," confess Marcus to the Queen feeling like a little boy who said to a teacher about a bully who has started to attack him.
"Really? What have you done this time?"
"Nothing. She was her choice."
"I see," she says while she takes a look at Ron who is started to shake uncontrollably when the queen has put her eyes on him. "Good luck with this one, your good knight."
"Thank you," replied Marcus to Queen.
The Queen looked at me after that, and then she says to me.
"You... You look kinda familiar."
"Really?" I ask the Queen feeling a little bit scared.
"Yes. Tell me, do you have any relationship with a wizard or sorcerer who was arrested in the Romania Kingdom?"
"Sorcerer?" I ask the Queen. "What is that?"
"Another word to say to the people who are magicians. But never mind that it is probably my imagination so I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
"D-Don't worry," I reply to the Queen.
After a few seconds of silence, the Queen looked at the parchment for a while, and after that, she commands a knight to go to take something.
"Good job for this mission, you four." says the Queen to us.
"I-It was no problem," says Fiona to the Queen. "This mission was way easier than I expected."
"Really? How come?"
"We have just encountered wolves and bears, and even some bandits, but don't worry, they didn't follow us because of Marco."
"I told you I'm sorry," says Marco to Fiona ignoring the place where he is. "I didn't mean to kill them, but I just aimed their heads by mistake."
"Mistakes are always made, Marcus. But don't worry, bandits are always bandits, my dear knights, and squires."
A knight comes with a bag that most likely contains coins who are as a reward for doing a good job protecting those carriages. The Queen rises from her throne and she handed those bags of coins to us. There were four bags, who probably contains twelve or even thirtieth coins that can help us buy some good food or weapons. We take those bags and then left the royal Palace because we have something important to do in this town until tomorrow morning, we have to find a Tavern where we can sleep until tomorrow morning.
