83 Ch. 81 - Meeting the Ogre with a talking Donkey

Across the forest, Jin and the gang just crossed the long bridge that leads to another land that is far larger and wider than the lands where the Arendelle resides.

*Tak! *10

While Jin was sitting on the driver's seat while Rapunzel was sound asleep inside the carriage, Tigress's sharp hearing senses suddenly heard another sound of the horse's footsteps that is literally different from their horse.

Although it is hard to determine however, hearing it far behind them instead of the front was what gave it away.

Just as she was about to tell Jin about her discovery, he suddenly beat him into it.

"I know. I've already noticed it long ago." Jin said while he continued driving the carriage as if there was no one following them.

"What are we going to do?" Tigress asked in slight excitement, whoever their follower is, there's a high chance that it is someone that holds ill will towards them. But there's also a chance that it's just a normal guy riding a horse that just coincidentally took the same road as they did.

"We do nothing. We'll only know if it is following us when we arrive at our location." Jin said and Tigress leaned back to her seat to relax again, disappointed that she won't be having to fight anytime soon.

***

Afte a whole long day of intense journey, they have finally arrived at a small Kingdom that has weird walls and a very tall rectangular structure in the middle.

"Duloc? What is this, I've never heard of this." Rapunzel squinted her eyes at the large signage at the gate, there are no guards guarding the gate and what's even more weird is that a bunch of metal fences were lying down on the ground as if someone just rammed through it without any care.

"How about we enter to find out?" Jin was the same, he hasn't heard of Duloc and he can't recall any Kingdoms that have the same name as it.

"Perhaps it is a new Kingdom?" Tigress commented as they entered through the gates.

"Kitty, building a Kingdom is not easy as this and once a new Kingdom emerges, it would require large manpower and connections to several nobles and royal families in other Kingdoms. My guess is that this Duloc must be some kind of town that started building walls around it and locked itself away from the outside world." Jin said and the moment they entered, they were met with silence.

The structures were all the same without any tinge of uniqueness in it.

"This is weird." Rapunzel hid behind Rapunzel as she was a bit creeped out at the silence of the entire residence. That's when they heard loud singing, just a short distance away from them.

"Welcome to Duloc such a perfect town!~ Here we have some rules let us lay them down!~..."

The singing goes on and it attracted their attention to it and that's when they saw a large green buff man with a donkey beside him, watching a blue cabinet where a bunch of figurines were singing and dancing.

"Please keep off of the grass, shine your shoes, wipe your...face~." The singing goes on as Tigress was raising her eye brows and was staring at the scene with a confused face.

"What the...." Tigress uttered as she turned to look at Jin and Rapunzel, wanting to see if they were also seeing what she was seeing.

Thankfully for her, she wasn't the only one seeing the scene unfold as Rapunzel was chuckling at the scene while Jin was shaking his head with his palm on his forehead.

'Great, I guess we won't have to go to his swamp. It would take another few hours to arrive there.' Jin said to himself as the singing was finally about to finish.

"Duloc is, Duloc is, such a perfect place!..." Soon after that, the figurines retraced and went back inside the cabinet before the cabinet doors closed by itself. There was a flash of light that flashed in front of Shrek and Donkey.

A photo suddenly printed out of the crack, showing Shrek and Donkey's confused faces.

"Weird, why am I seeing three guys behind us?" Donkey commented while squinting his eyes at the photo.

"Huh?" Shrek was confused and grabbed the photo, taking a good look at it before realizing that Donkey was right! So he quickly turned around and that's when he saw a familiar face.

"The Flame Predator?" Shrek called out his nickname, making Jin scrunch his face at the cringeness of the nickname.

'Whoever thought of that, I swear I will hunt you down!' Jin made a promise inside his mind as he turned to Shrek and waved his hand.

"Nice meeting you again, Shrek. How are you doing?" Jin greeted while walking towards them while Rapunzel was hiding behind Tigress, as she was looking at Shrek with slight fear in her eyes.

"Oh... My day is very great! It's not like a bunch of fairies just swarmed over my swamp and took over it as if it were their own, the baddest part is now I have to fix this issue myself!" Shrek complained in an ironic tone as he swayed his arms around while Donkey replied to him.

"Shrek, I thought you were going to help them take back their home?" Donkey said with a betrayed expression.

"Not now, Donkey. I'm only here so Lord Farquaad can kick them out of my swamp." Shrek said bluntly.

"Oh! The deception! I thought we were on a mission to defeat Farquaad and restore peace among the fairies!" Donkey made a dramatic pose by placing his foot above his forehead and cried out while staring at the sky.

"There is no mission, only peace talks." Shrek said and just as Donkey was about to further his drama, they suddenly heard shouting from a certain area.

"There." Tigress's senses were more sharp so she managed to quickly detect where the sound was coming from.

"Thank you. Hopefully, everything ends well." Shrek thanked Tigress before he started walking towards the arena, where the sound is coming from.

"Hold on! Wait for me Shrek!" Donkey quickly dropped his act and started chasing after Shrek.

"Is that an Ogre?" After they're already on a certain distance, Rapunzel asks in a whisper tone.

"And a talking Donkey." Tigress added, when she saw Donkey talking, it reminded her of Master Donkey back in her world. Their appearance is not that far with the way they both walk are different. Master Donkey walks in her two hoof while Donkey walks like your everyday average Donkey.

"Let's follow them." Knowing what will happen next, Jin wanted to see them. In fact, he wanted to see just how much he could interfere in a plot.

Killing or beating Farquaad will do just fine.

Hearing Jin, Rapunzel looked at Tigress, asking for help as she didn't follow the Ogre.

Unfortunately for her, Tigress simply shrugged her shoulders before following Jin. There's no way she could change Jin's mind, as he seemed to be set upon on this adventure. If she did something he doesn't like, there's a high chance that he would break her waist again in bed.

"Aww men." Rapunzel was cast down but still, she followed them.

***

In the arena, Jin saw that Farquaad was already offering the knights to be the champion as long as they defeated Shrek.

"You there! Are you here to join in defeating the Ogre to become the champion that will rescue the princess trapped in a tower?" Farquaad notices Jin's arrival and quickly assumes that Jin is here to compete.

Just as Jin was about to reply, Tigress and Rapunzel soon entered, making Farquaad stop talking and quickly stared at them in lust, especially to Rapunzel.

"My good lord! You there beautiful lady, may you grace me with your name?" Farquaad quickly pointed his finger towards Rapunzel and yelled.

"Me? Rapunzel... my name is Rapunzel, the Princess of Corona Kingdom." Stunned, Rapunzel's introductory training quickly kicked in and she introduced herself while spreading her gown sideways as she bowed her head slightly.

"Good lord! A princess nonetheless! You must marry me!" Farquaad, seeing his chance in front of him, didn't hesitate and quickly took the opportunity.

'Finally! This is my chance to marry a princess and truly become a King! Let's add the fact that this Princess is beautiful! I could finally have someone with good looks to warm my bed!' Farquaad maliciously stared at Rapunzel in lust.

"Unfortunately, she's already married to me." Jin then stepped forward and hugged Rapunzel by her waist as she yelped in surprise. Though she calmed down soon and just warmly hugged him back by putting her hand on his broad chest.

Jin was already fuming in anger inside his mind and he can't wait to release it. Having someone setting his sights on his woman makes him boil in rage inside but thankfully, he's managing to hold it down just fine.

Farquaad was disappointed that Rapunzel was married and there's a high chance that she's already tainted but still, as long as he marries her, he could become King and he would just have to discard her after he's done using her.

"Oh really then? Fine. Knights! Whoever could beat this man and take that princess to me shall become the champion!" So he just boredly looked at him before changing the goal and quickly ordered the knights who were supposed to kill Shrek.

Hearing his order, the participating knights quickly pointed their sharp swords at Jin.

"You just gave me a reason to kill you now." Jin muttered in a whisper as his face twitched in anger as the boiling anger that he's been holding back soon exploded.
