Chapter 28 -The Rebel Army!

A single figure entered from the now opened gates.He was covered in injures and bandages.The citizen were alarmed!Behind him a huge army started to follow!They were the Rebel Army!They wore armor with a red crest in the back.

The figure who entered first was a youth,probably not even twenty.His eyes were red like blood and his hair was mixed blue and red.He was Lafazar,yet unlike the rumors this time he was holding a sad emotion in his eyes.Although they had won a city,their army had been lowered by at least ten thousand!

What about their families?Who would feed them?Him?He no longer had access to the treasury of the Royal Palace,I’d be a miracle to be able to even enter the Capital!But unfortunately he had no path to choose.

For a family of four to be feed there was a need of at least one thousand beri each month,there were 200 thousand citizen for a total of 2 million beri for a single month,for a year they need 22 million beri!Which person could easily pull such a wealth?

But then his eyes shone!

***

Two days before the Rebel Army entered the City.”Your Highness,we have caught some kids saying that they can pay our yearly needs for a few years!”A soldier said amusing the King,Lafazar.”Interesting,bring them to me.”

It was idiotic to lie to him,as they would end dead,so he was sure 99% that what they were saying was either true or not true.Then he saw them,five kids for him,well he also was just a bit older than them.

The strangest of them and probably the youngest,bowed.”Your highness,I am Kuro a merchant who travels the world,they are my fellow merchants below me.”The youngest,Kuro said humbly,just like a polite gentlemen.

“Talk.”Lafazar said happily.”When I was in one of my journeys,I heard that this Kingdom,was in need of money.I was struck by a idea!At that time I was going mad trying to find a way to use the money my father left me before he died!Then I thought,why not use them to help somebody?”

Kuro said,”Using a ship we arrived at this island,we were struck by the amazing art!Aiyah!”He continued,”I want to give you a total of 150 million beri,which will last you guys for a few good years!”He said politely before taking out a few big sacks from his huge bag in his back.”There is a total of 150 million beri there!”

He said politely.He was smiling innocently but Lafazar was not stupid.”What do you want in exchange?”Kuro smiled,”Simply your support,your highness…”Little did Lafazar know that after he accepted,he made a contract with the devil…

***

Lafazar went to his house,a bit better than the houses in the beginning of the city and sighed,remembering what Kuro had said before he mysteriously disappeared with his people.I will find you when I need you…

It somehow creeped him,it felt like a contract with the devil.(Am I changing the Mc of the story?Lol!)”At least we got the money,with these even holding for six more years will be easy!”Lafazar smiled.

“Laffy!”A woman’s soft voice rang out inside the room.A beautiful woman opened the door.She was his fiancee,Akane.Her silky red hair which reached the middle of her back shone.Her eyes were light brown.Her skin was delicate as snow.

“Akane!”Lafazar immediately jumped and emberaced Akane full with love.Their lips slowly linked.Lafazar was taller so he had to lower his head(First time writing something like that,Shaking for coldness?)

Akane was the daughter of a famous minister who was the right hand of the previous king,Lafazar’s father.Lafazar’s father trusted the minister a lot so he tied his son and his girl in marriage when they reach the age of twenty.

Unfortunately neither managed to see the day,as they were killed by Bick and the Fire Fox Pirates.That happened two years ago,Lafazar not wanting to let his fiancee,a childhood friend stay with that devil and tyrant took her to this city together with twenty thousand troops he trusted most.

Akane wasn’t very strong,but her healing abilities were top notch.Heavily Wounded?No problem!As long as the person hadn’t lost a limb she could immediately heal the person to the max,but he would still need to rest to recover the lost stamina.Because of that she was also targeted by assassins sent by Lafazar’s brother Bick tens of times,and sometimes thrice or four times a day.

Lafazar sat together with Akane in the couch softly.He told her everything about what had happened.From how they had won the war to how they meet the strange young merchants and how they won 150 million beri.

“That guy should be good or a villain trying to win or amuse himself with the war,I mean the more we battle the more casualties there are.”Akane said after a moment of silence.There were many merchants who tried to win from the wars around the world,and none were good people in their hearts.

Then suddenly the door was slammed open.A middle aged man entered.”Your Highness,several tens of thousands of mount bandits,mercenaries and thugs are attacking the city!”He shouted.Thugs?Bandits?Mercenaries?What the hell!

Lafazar immediately rose to his feet and exited the house.He looked beyond the walls and certainly saw an army of bandits and mercenaries.He could only think of one person capable of doing this,Bick.His own brother.

Rage and fury appeared in his eyes.Was it really necessary to bring unknown people to this?Just because he wants to have enough space to pee the entire world?And then he was reminded.If you ever need my help,say,Shadows Of Shikuro…

If they were so rich,they also should be strong!Was what the now muscle headed Lafazar.He couldn’t think anything else.He said,Shadows OF Shikuro.One minute passed,nothing happened and then it happened.Five Figures appeared before him,familiar,they were the merchants!

Kuro was amused,”You asked for my help so quick,Haken,Miru go and help the army of Rebels!”Miru and Haken nodded as they immediately left.
