We hugged each other for a few minutes and then we release each other from our hugging and we sat down in our seats, after which we began to talk with difficulty about what had happened and how were our parents.
"Um... So... You work as a squire, right?" asked Big Gus me feeling nervous because of this whole thing that was happening earlier about their confession.
"Y-Yeah..." I respond to Big Gus and Emily.
"Cool. You take a good job, little one."
"Yeah... I think." I say that line feeling a little awkward.
"Are you working with the girl covered in scars who live with the hunter?"
"Fiona and Diana? Yes. I live with those two. Why?"
"Ah... Nothing. I was just curious if the rumours are true or not."
"What rumours?"
After saying this, Big Gus began to feel embarrassed that he had brought this discussion to such a meeting, but I do not condemn him because whatever he did, he was abandoned for almost 10 years and sent to an orphanage. To be protected and was lied to by the fate of his parents. Anyway, after a few moments, Big Gus looked at Emily, who breathed a sigh of relief and then told me one of those myths they had heard about Fiona and Diana from knights, bounty hunters, or who knows where the hell they heard such rumours from.
"I heard that one of the girls is possessed by a werewolf spirit, a spirit that is said to attack all the delicious victims or those who dislike her more than a drunk who sold his family for alcohol." says Emily to me feeling worried about my lifestyle.
"Well... You are not wrong there. But she is not possessed by a werewolf." I say to Emily and Big Gus, who they were amazed at what I told them. "She is possessed by a vewolf. The vegetarian one."
"Oh. I see..." says Big Gus looking with an angry look at the two men who start to leave and tremble with fear because that huge man could crush them at any moment due to the false rumours that Big Gus and Emily received from them. But how about the two fighters I know Fiona ... I should pay more attention to certain girls because it is not known when someone will force you to cut us when we expect less ... Metaphorically I mean.

"So, you live well with the two girls, right?" asked Emily to me.
"Yes. Those two girls are good people. Fiona teaches me the ways of fighting and I help her with my magic, and Diana helps me in selling stuff and crafting, even though those things will probably never help me shortly because I am aiming to be a wizard of Romania Kingdom."
Big Gus and Emily smiled at me and after that, Big Gus takes from his big back, who was propped up by a few smaller backpacks, which most likely belonged to other knights or wizards nearby, and perhaps Emily's. Big Gus took the staff from that backpack that made me startle and get goosebumps. That staff that Big Gus hands me looks like one of those in the dreams I had a few days ago. Is the dream I had then a sign to take that stick or not to take it? Will I accept it later or now? As long as I thought about these variants, which were a ton of things that necessity an answer and not these four, my head started to hurt so I said in my mind: "Damn it! Just get it! It's just that nothing serious has happened to you in life if I take a staff that must have belonged to my mother or another witch who is a close relative of my mother or father. "
I took the staff, I thanked my close relatives for this and I decide to show them a spell, so I tried to use the staff like I use my wand. So, I get up and targeted a tree. After that I say with a loud voice, aiming at that tree and with a menacingly look: "T.N.T". when the spell has hit the tree it has made to jump on the back due to the radius of the spell fired. It seems that the blast radius is larger when you use a wizard's wand and not a wand. When I saw what I did on the tree, I was very shocked because the explosion was so strong that I propelled a tree ... I think to the enemy base ... I hope what I think is not true otherwise my army and I will be in big trouble. When I wanted to meet Big Gus and Emily, they looked amazed but also disappointed that I did such a spell using such a stick. However, a 10-year-old child who can propel a tree with a spell is amazing, right? ... Right?
Anyway, when the spell has happened, a few knights came to the place to investigate what happened there and then one of them, who is probably the captain asked me, Big Gus and Emily with a serious voice.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE !?!"
Big Gus and Emily were about to confess, but I decided to take the blame and to tell the captain what has happened. Besides, what would an angry captain do to a child? They would send him in the kitchen the entire war or they would make my bath every knight?
Apparently, the angry captain has put me, Emily and Big Gus, and even Fiona to go for a week in a base and to wait for the enemies to strike or to pass by if their number is low. This one seemed a bad punishment because the captain would not let us come back to the base if we are not going to deliver him ahead of an enemy. And if we are not bringing an enemy head to our captain, then we can say bye-bye for a portion of food for a few days.
When we got that punishment and we were sending in a carriage at that place, Emily and Big Gus were teaching me some lectures about how is not a good idea to not use a powerful staff, and Fiona, has just spanked my cheeks with her hands, and after that, we shake hands because she is intrigued by the magic power I did, which did not make Big Gus and Emily happy about Fiona action about the mistake I did. I hope things would go well.
