10 The Velos Desi

in the journey of Kilian, Seth, and Lucius, their first destination was Velos Desi.

the place of the Velums where they can meet a Sagittarius zodiac.

Sagittarius are skilled marksmen. their eyes and hearing are so sharp that even if they are a hundred kilometers away, they can tell if someone is coming to their Desi.

Before Kilian even set foot on the border of Velos Desi, suddenly, an arrow flew in front of them.

there is a letter wrapped around the body of the arrow. Seth opened it and read it.

Don't even try to enter our border.

As long as they are within the range of the abilities of Sagittarius, they can know what they are talking about or if they have any bad intentions.

so before they could even set foot on the border of Velos Desi, the Velums immediately stopped them.

Lucius placed Linhardt to the ground and told the Kilian to raise their hands to show the Velums that they were not carrying any weapon with them.

Another arrow flew to where they were, and Seth read again what was written on it.

We won't let you in because there are people following you.

we can see the shadow of five people behind you even though we can't see them clearly.

Kilian immediately became alert when they read the arrow sent by the Velums.

because even they do not know that some people are following them.

Linhardt awoke from his slumber and was surprised to see that he was with Kilian and Lucius.

Seth spoke to him slowly and explained everything. it also included that they said his father was in good condition and that he was returning to Nero Desi so that Linhardt's heart would be complacent and he would have nothing else to think about.

Seth spoke to him slowly and explained everything. She also included that his father was in good condition and that he was returning to Nero Desi so that Linhardt's heart would be complacent and he would have nothing else to think about.

Luckily, Linhardt understood everything. Lucius also preceded him by using force to take him out at carrying him around without permission because they were in a hurry to get out of the castle at that moment.

Linhardt didn't hold a grudge and just asked for a bit of time to understand everything that happened.

Before they could continue their conversation, they were shocked when Seth suddenly collapsed.

They didn't know why but as Seth turned over, they saw a dagger stuck in her side.

they didn't know because they didn't hear any sound or where that dagger came from.

Lucius held that dagger and smelled it. he told Kilian that those daggers were poisoned, and that is why suddenly, his sister Seth fell down.

in addition to this, they need to be quick and treat Seth immediately because the poison spreads quickly inside her body, and she can possibly die.

based on the smell of this poison, Lucius also said that he knew precisely where this dagger came from.

no one in the entire Kingdom of Zo-An could create such a powerful poison that could knock anyone out when it hit its target. and the way the dagger was thrown at him without any noise was the work of an assassin.

and the only assassins with this high level are none other than people with the mark of Zodiac Scorpio.

----------------------------------

One of them looked in danger. it suddenly fell, and based on what I could see, it looked like she was poisoned. words of someone from within Velos Desi while guarding the post inside the border.

All three of them have the sign of the Sagittarius Zodiac guarding their border.

one's suggestion is to help them because the poison that one of the travelers has suffered seems to be serious.

but their leader named Juno had second thoughts.

Juno is wise is kind ruler of Velos Desi. she wanted nothing but for the Velums to live safely and well.

that's why she can't just help the travelers. but because of her soft heart, she could not stop herself from helping them.

in order not to put her colleagues in danger she said that she would go out alone to find out if these travelers had no bad intentions.

she also told them not to worry because no matter what bad move the travelers make, she will not hesitate to kill them immediately.

Even though Juno is a woman she is looked up to, respected and trusted by all of Velum.

they knew of her abilities as a Sagittarius was so powerful and she was the best bow wielder in all of Velos Desi.

While Juno was preparing to leave the border, Lucius suddenly had an unexpected encounter.

suddenly two assassins appeared behind Kilian and Linhardt.

one of the assassins tried to break Kilian's hand but Lucius quickly stopped it.

he punched one of the assassins so hard that he fell back.

Little by little, the marks on Lucius' face lit up and even though he had no sight, his senses grew stronger to be ready to fight.

Do not be scared! he's just tricking you and showing his ability that he can't use anymore. said an assassin with his face covered as he slowly added poison to the dagger he was holding.

I don't have time to play games with you guys! Kilian shouted angrily because he was worried about the poison that was slowly spreading through Seth's body.

"tha'kinieste!" a spell of Libras to momentarily control the mind of whoever they are in front of.

but he can't hit it because the assassins move too fast.

Even Lucius couldn't repeat his punch to the assassin because they were already alert.

at the same time as they move quickly, he gradually injures them with their dagger.

on the face, on the thigh on the arm. even if they are only small scars, it contains poison that causes their actions to be weak.

while Linhardt saw that his companions were falling down because of the poison of the assassins. his mind was getting confused and he couldn't do anything.

Little by little darkness enveloped his mind and he lost his right thoughts. as the assassins felt strange and stopped attacking.

wait! didn't our boss say that only one Leo is here? why do I feel like that man seems like a Leo? answered another assassin.

don't give in to fear! they are just trying to trick you. that Libra is likely to do that. he plays with your mind. better yet let's leave them. after all we have left them with so much poison. let's just let them die here.

Before the assassins could move again and run away, their knees suddenly trembled.

they could not move and fear enveloped their whole body.

what is this? said an assassin. as they heard every sound of Linhardt's footsteps approaching them.

with every sound of Linhardt's footsteps, the heartbeat of the assassins seemed to slow down. it felt like a King was in front of them and they could do nothing but kneel down and bow their heads.

they try to speak and try to move their bodies but it's too late.

they were too enveloped in darkness and due to the extreme pressure that Linhardt brought to them, they spontaneously got out of breath and died by their own. even though Linhardt was not doing anything to them, just showing his threatening aura that dominates their whole existence.
